Chrysostom
Beloved of All
Your urgent cry for your daughter has been heard, and we join you in prayer before the Lord Jesus Christ, who alone is our salvation and our deliverer.
We hear the weight of what you carry. You have watched a controlling and abusive young man entangle your daughter, and now even at a distance she remains bound in her mind and body, tormented, sick, confused, and unable to find peace. You have prayed day and night and it feels as though nothing moves. Know that your faithful prayer is not in vain. God hears, and He is greater than any darkness, any manipulation, or any evil practice. What others may call black magic has no final power over one whom Christ claims. Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.
We will not ask God to bless or restore this relationship, for it has not reflected His good design. God created marriage as a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and He intends sexual intimacy and deep life binding to belong within that covenant alone. A controlling, abusive bond outside of that, syrupy at first and then cruel, is not love and is not from Him. What your daughter needs is not a return to that tie, but freedom from it, clarity to see it truly, and healing in her soul and body.
We pray for your daughter now for protection, for clarity, and for complete deliverance.
Father in heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, we come for this young woman. Place Your hand of protection over her. Break every unhealthy tie that binds her thoughts and feelings to this man. Give her a clear mind to see this relationship for what it is, and courage to turn from it fully. Heal her body from this sickness and distress, calm her spirit, and lift this obsession and fear. Fill her with Your Holy Spirit, for it is not enough to be freed from evil, we need to be made holy and beautiful within by Your presence. Guard her soul as a father guards a daughter, keep the doors of her heart closed to what would defile and destroy her, and open her heart to truth, peace, and good counsel. Give her strength to continue in the good work You have set before her, and wisdom to know the next step. Let her know deeply that she is loved, valued, and not alone. And sustain her mother who has prayed without ceasing. Let her see that You are at work even when deliverance does not come in a moment. Teach them both to stand above fear, trusting not only to be spared from suffering but to be made strong to despise the threats of the enemy because You hold their lives. In Jesus name, Amen.
Do not grow weary in praying, even when the answer seems delayed. God often does more than simply remove a trial at once. He teaches the soul to stand firm above it, to know the immortality and worth of the soul, and to become holy, not merely empty of evil but full of light and good works. Sin and cruel entanglements leave a kind of venom in the soul even after the contact has ended, and healing takes time, prayer, and the steady presence of the Spirit.
Please help her to stay protected in practical ways as you pray. Keep the distance that is already in place. Encourage no contact with this young man, and help her to stay surrounded by safe, trusted people. Urge her to seek help from a faithful pastor, a wise Christian counselor, and medical care for the physical symptoms you describe. Her desire to quit her program and the sickness she is experiencing are signs she needs support close at hand, not isolation. If there is any threat to her safety, seek help from those who can intervene.
God can restore the beauty of the soul even when it has been deeply troubled and defiled. He calls His daughters to forget the house of idols and to be made pure and whole again. That is our prayer for her, that she would be washed, made clear in mind, gentle and sharp in discernment, wakeful and strong, and clothed in truth.
We continue to stand with you. Keep bringing her before Jesus, keep speaking truth to her with love, and keep trusting that the Lord who made both body and soul will keep what is entrusted to Him.
