We join you in this urgent cry for your youngest daughter and we stand with you before the throne of grace in Jesus name, asking for His complete protection and deliverance over her life. We hear the weight of your burden as you have watched evil control and confusion try to isolate her, and we hear how heavy her days have become as she tries to keep going to nursing school and work while walking long distances and weeping. The Lord sees every tear and He is near to the brokenhearted.
We want to remind you that no black magic, no curse, no manipulation has power over one who belongs to Jesus Christ. The Word tells us that greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world, 1 John 4:4, and that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places, Ephesians 6:12. Sorcery and witchcraft are detestable to God and are works of the flesh, Galatians 5:20, Deuteronomy 18:10, but they are defeated by the blood of Jesus. We rebuke in Jesus name every work of darkness, every spell, every evil control and assignment that her ex has attempted over her mind and body, and every spirit of confusion, isolation and fear that would make her feel crazy or alone. We declare that no weapon that is formed against you will prevail, Isaiah 54:17, and that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control, 2 Timothy 1:7.
We also lift up the pain caused by her father. Alcoholism brings deep wounding and confusion to a family, and we pray that he will come to repentance and that the Lord will break the chains of that bondage in his life. We pray that your daughter will have wise boundaries and godly counsel around her, and that she will be surrounded by believers who will believe her, support her, and walk with her so the enemy’s tactic of isolation is broken. The Lord promises that He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, Psalm 91:1, and that The angel of Yahweh encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them, Psalm 34:7. We claim that 24 hour protection over her driving, walking, being alone, and in every place she goes. Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more, Psalm 121:7-8. The Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one, 2 Thessalonians 3:3. When the righteous cry, Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit, Psalm 34:17-18. Fear not, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness, Isaiah 41:10.
We pray for her complete mental and emotional healing. We ask the Lord to lift the exhaustion, the heaviness that makes it hard to get up, and the sorrow that follows her as she walks. We pray He will renew her mind, restore her peace, and give her strength for each step, each class, and each shift at work. We pray she will be able to cast all her anxiety on Him because He cares for her, 1 Peter 5:7, and that she will submit herself to God and resist the devil so he will flee from her, James 4:7.
Concerning her ex, we pray that this relationship which was not a marriage covenant before God will be fully broken in the spiritual realm and that she will be loosed from any ungodly soul tie or control. We pray that if there was any fornication or impurity in that courtship, the Lord will bring repentance, forgiveness through Jesus, and cleansing, for we are called to flee sexual immorality and to honor God with our bodies, 1 Corinthians 6:18. We pray that going forward any courtship would be with a fellow believer in Christ with the clear goal of a lifelong marriage between a man and a woman that honors God, and that she would be guarded until the Lord brings a godly husband if it is His will for her to marry.
We pray together now. Father in heaven, we come to You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, and we lift this precious daughter to You. Cover her with the blood of Jesus. Place Your angels around her car, around her path as she walks, around her home, her workplace and her school, night and day. Break every chain of witchcraft, manipulation and evil control and let it fall powerless to the ground. Heal her mind and emotions completely, Lord, wash away confusion, fear and trauma and fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Give her strength to rise each morning, to study, to work, and to keep going. Comfort her as she weeps and let her know she is seen, believed, and deeply loved by You. Deliver her from isolation and bring trustworthy, godly people around her and her mother to support and protect her. Bring conviction and repentance to her ex and to her father, and save them if they do not know You. We ask that You make her whole, restore what the enemy has tried to steal, and guide her steps into a future of purity, purpose and hope in You. We trust Your will and Your power, for Yours is the kingdom and the glory forever. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
