[Cralmilan]

Lord I ask for Your special guidance, peace, satisfaction and favors with her studies and classes today. Lord anoint her work at the lab and school with Your blessings, favors and fulfillments. I pray that she would work efficiently and not over work her self. I pray for wisdom and clarity for her. I am concern a move at this time would burden her health, her busy schedule, her ability to care for her dog, and would bring financial hardship and stress. I pray that the Lord will grant her eyes to see this clearly and a heart to be content, gratefulness and steadfast where she has been blessed. I pray she will not be moved by pressure or persuasion. Lord I witness the negative influences that instigate her to move. Lord I ask that You guide her to not listen to negative influences and bless her with a grateful heart toward You, me, her siblings and the way she was brought up. Block this young man (lives with her older sister) and his mother from preying on my daughter to move trying to make living with her brother is a burden. She loves her brother.

He and his mother are now guiding both of my daughters down a dark path now. I ask Lord that my younger daughter will not be brainwashed to do this. This mother needs to focus on fixing her children.

This young man's father needs to intervene, not tolerate his wife overstepping habits, his son's controlling, dishonest, manipulating behaviors toward others. His son is not ready for a relationship, and exploiting our finances for his own benefit is unfair. Show this young man he is not my children's father, not their mentor, not their financial advisor, and teach my children to not be influenced by him anymore. Jesus, I beg that You intervene and remove this young man and his mother from my family. Break all ungodly relationships, have mercy on my older daughter, set her free from this relationship and completely restore her Godly habits, peace, freedom, joy, self worth and happiness. Lord rustrate every plot causing division and chaos. Saturate our home with Your peace, love, joy, fellowship, and unity. The kind that surpasses all understanding.

Fill her with Your wisdom, favor, peace, protection, and Holy Spirit. Jesus, saturate her with Your peace, love, satisfaction, favor and joy. Let her continue to be obedient toward me, let her continue to be grateful and thankful for her supportive family and our home. Lord, I ask that my older daughter will move back home swiftly. Restore my daughters' relationship with their brother with ### that was destroyed by this young man and his mother. Let them see him a blessing not burden. Jesus, I rebuke all spiritual attacks, all curses, witchcraft, division, isolation and anything not of You. I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over me and my children. No weapon formed against us shall prosper. Surround us with Your ministry angels, hedge of protection, and full armor to shield us from all attacks. In Jesus' mighty name, I pray. Amen

 

[Articles]

We join you in lifting up your younger daughter, your son, your older daughter and your entire household before the throne of grace in Jesus' name, and we thank you for pleading the precious blood of Jesus over your family.

We hear your heart for your younger daughter and we agree with you for her protection as she drives, for wisdom and clarity in her studies and lab work, and for healing in her body. We pray that the Lord will keep her in perfect peace and guide her steps. For He will give His angels charge over you, to guard you in all your ways Psalm 91:11. We ask for His hedge of protection and His full armor to surround her, Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil Ephesians 6:11. We pray for her health, that the Lord would touch her and heal her completely from POTS and all pain, for we know that by His wounds we are healed, and that nothing is impossible for Him. We pray she will work efficiently and not overwork herself, and that the Lord will grant her favor with her professors, her lab and her classes, and give her wisdom beyond her years. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him James 1:5. We also pray with you for discernment regarding this pressure to move. We agree that a move at this time would burden her health, her busy schedule, her ability to care for her dog, and bring financial hardship and stress. We pray the Lord will grant her eyes to see clearly and a heart to be content and steadfast where she has been blessed. We pray she will not be moved by persuasion or pressure, but will trust in the Lord with all her heart, and not lean on her own understanding. In all her ways acknowledge Him, and He will make her paths straight Proverbs 3:5-6.

We also must speak truth in love concerning your older daughter. We grieve with you over the division and isolation that has come into your family, and we agree that living together outside of marriage is not in alignment with God's will. The Scripture is clear, Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled, but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers Hebrews 13:4, and Flee sexual immorality 1 Corinthians 6:18. Cohabitation as boyfriend and girlfriend is fornication and is not marriage, and it does not honor God nor does it protect a woman's worth, security or future. It is not a lifelong covenant between a man and a woman as God designed. We pray that your older daughter will see this clearly, that the Lord will open her eyes to the manipulation, control, dishonesty and financial exploitation you have described, and that He will give her courage, wisdom and knowledge to come out from this ungodly relationship swiftly and to restore her godly habits, peace, freedom, joy and self-worth. We pray she will no longer make excuses for this young man or seek counsel from his mother who oversteps, but will put her faith, her family and her purposeful work before this relationship. Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship has righteousness with iniquity 2 Corinthians 6:14. We pray that any courtship in your family would be with the goal of marriage to another Christian believer who respects God, respects family and respects purity, not a compromising living arrangement. We ask the Lord to frustrate every scheme and plot that seeks to lure your younger daughter to move in with them into a two bedroom apartment and to exploit her finances as well. We pray He will block that influence completely and restore the love between your daughters and their brother, that they would see him as a blessing and not a burden, and that family fellowship, respect and unity would be restored.

We also lift up your concern about unhealthy friendships. We agree with your discernment that when your younger daughter spends time with this friend she returns very down and confused and uneasy, with strange things happening around her. We pray the Lord will give her wisdom to stay away from this kind of unhealthy friendship and to choose godly, pure friendships, perhaps from her classes, who will respect her and her upbringing. Do not be deceived, evil companionships corrupt good morals 1 Corinthians 15:33. We pray the Lord will anoint her surroundings with guidance, protection, peace and satisfaction, and bless her with friends who sharpen her faith.

We join you in praying for your son who has been so tormented these past few days. We rebuke every spiritual attack, word curse, confusion and oppression over his life in Jesus' mighty name, and we claim the promise, No weapon that is formed against you will prevail Isaiah 54:17. We pray for no more setbacks, only healing, breakthrough and victory. We ask the Lord to restore his peace of mind right now, to clear confusion and to anoint his functional language, that he would speak with clarity and peace. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:6-7. We declare that your son is a child of the Most High God, and we ask for His complete healing, restoration, favor, protection, love, joy and abundant blessings over his life. We also pray for your household, that God would remove all fear, division, isolation, jealousy, chaos, negative influences and disrespect from your environment, and saturate your home with His peace, love, joy, fellowship and unity that surpasses all understanding. The enemy prowls as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, but we resist him steadfast in the faith 1 Peter 5:8.

We pray together now, Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name by which we have access to You and no other name by which we are saved. We plead the blood of Jesus over this mother and her children, over their home, their coming and going, their studies and work. We ask You to cleanse, shield and keep the younger daughter safe as she drives, anoint her lab work and school with Your favor and fulfillment, heal her body from POTS, take all pain away, and fill her days and nights with favor, peace, joy, protection, love and satisfaction. Give her wisdom to be content and grateful where You have blessed her, and block every voice that would prey upon her, brainwash her or instigate her to move. Frustrate every divisive plan of this young man and his mother, and remove every spiritual attack, witchcraft and curse from this family. Restore love between the siblings, strengthen the bond between this mother and her daughters, and let no weapon formed against them prosper. Set the older daughter free from this toxic, immoral relationship, bring her home swiftly, restore her love for You, for family and for church, and teach her to honor marriage as You designed it. Heal the son, restore his mind, his language and his joy, and let this household walk in healing, breakthrough and victory tonight and in the week ahead. We give You all praise, honor and glory, trusting that You are working all things together for good for those who love You Romans 8:28. In Jesus' mighty name we pray, amen.

We hear how heavy this has been for you, carrying concern for each of your children at once while wanting peace back in your home. Your love for your younger daughter comes through so clearly, in how you notice when she is down after time with certain friends, how you pray for her safety driving, her studies and lab work, and her health with POTS. We also hear your heart for your older daughter and your son, and how painful the distance and division has felt.

It makes sense you would feel pulled in many directions. When worries stack up about health, school, finances, and family relationships, it can help to keep our focus on what is steady and what is ours to do today. We find that resting in Christ's protection brings more calm than trying to track every negative influence, and that He is able to keep your children even when you cannot be with them.

One gentle next step that may help is to keep open, low-pressure conversation with your younger daughter about her schedule, health, and housing decisions, listening as much as sharing your concerns, and to continue with her regular medical care for POTS alongside prayer. If you have a trusted pastor, inviting him to pray with you for wisdom for the whole household can also bring steady support.

Father, we bring this mother and her children to You in Jesus' name. Cover the younger daughter as she drives and studies, give her clarity, rest, and relief from pain, and surround her with kind, respectful friendships. Bring peace to her brother and calm to their home, and give this mom wisdom, strength and hope for each day. Amen.

Praying for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

I prayed for this in Jesus Name.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer with its many burdens has been laid before the Lord, and He who heals the broken in heart is still the same physician who can bind up every wound. There is healing in Christ, and as it has been preached, even the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the nations, so that the least thing about Christ, the least word from His lips, the least touch of His garment, bears healing virtue for the thousand ills of our humanity. That healing is appointed for this very purpose, and it flows abundantly from Him who is the great conduit Head of all mercy to men below.

We join you in pleading the precious blood of Jesus over your younger daughter. May the Lord shield her as she drives, keep her in all her ways, and preserve her soul from all evil and from the devices of the evil one. We pray that He will grant her wisdom and clarity in her studies and in her work in the lab, that she may work efficiently and with a quiet mind, not overworking herself, but finding satisfaction and favor in that which her hand finds to do. We ask the Lord to give her eyes to see clearly concerning this proposed move, and a heart made content and grateful and steadfast where she has been so blessed. May she not be moved by pressure or persuasion, nor by those negative influences which would corrupt and divide. The unity of the Spirit is a precious thing and it needs keeping, and Satan is busy to mar it, but the Holy Spirit infuses daily life floods into the one body to preserve it. We pray that every scheme to isolate and divide your household, to create resentment and ungratefulness, may be frustrated, and that your daughter may be kept from unhealthy friendships which leave her downcast and confused. When she has spent time with company that draws her away from the bright path, may the Lord give her discernment to turn away and to seek godly and pure friendships, friends from her classes and from the household of faith who will respect her upbringing and encourage her in the Lord. We ask for her complete healing according to the Lord's gracious will, that the affliction of POTS and all pain may be lifted by Him who healed all that had need of healing while He sojourned here, and whose atonement has lost none of its power. May He breathe into her soul a peace which passes all understanding and saturate her home and her going out and coming in with protection, peace and joy.

For your son we also pray with great earnestness. The Lord knows his torment and his struggle for functional language and peace of mind. We ask that the Lord who pardons sin and then heals disease would grant him healing and restoration, that all penal consequences being removed by forgiveness, he may know himself preserved from the pestilence that walks in darkness and kept in purity and uprightness. May the Lord grant him no setback but daily miracles of grace, breakthrough and victory, and may He calm the agitation of his bosom and give him rest. No weapon formed against a child of the Most High shall prosper, for the Lord preserves His own and that evil one touches him not when he is kept by Christ.

Concerning your older daughter we must pray with faithful love according to the historic biblical ethic which we hold as the Word of God. Marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and living together and sharing the intimacies of marriage outside of that covenant is not marriage and is not blessed of God. Therefore we cannot ask God to bless that arrangement, but we do with tears beseech Him to have mercy upon her and to set her free. We pray that she may see how this relationship has isolated her from family, from true friends, from her church family, from purposeful work and from the joy and self worth she once knew, and how it has brought control and financial exploitation and dishonor upon her. May the Lord give her courage and wisdom and knowledge to forsake what is dishonest and manipulating and to put her faith and her family and her duty before this young man and his house. May she cease to make excuses for what is wrong and to seek counsel where she should not, and may she be brought to repentance and to a desire for purity and truth. If it be His will, may she be restored to her home and to fellowship with you and with her brother and sister, and may the Lord either bring that young man to true repentance and faith in Christ alone for salvation, or remove his controlling influence swiftly and completely from your children's lives. We pray that your younger daughter may never desire to imitate a path that dishonors the Lord, and that she may not be lured into sharing a dwelling with those who are not her husband, for that would burden her health and her studies and her ability to care for what has been entrusted to her, and bring financial hardship and stress. May the Lord block every plot to use her and to draw her away, and teach all who overstep to work on their own household before the Lord.

For your whole household we pray that the Lord would remove fear and division and jealousy and chaos, and keep that unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. A husband and wife, a mother and children, though tried and pressed, are one in heart when Christ is their Head, and no true bond in Christ can be severed. May the Lord give to each of you strength and courage and wisdom and understanding to deal with every challenge, and may He anoint your home again with calm and grateful fellowship, with love and joy that surpasses all understanding. May the strange uneasiness and every spiritual attack be rebuked in the mighty name of Jesus, and may you be hedged about with His full armor and with ministering angels, kept by Him who has promised, I will put My fear in their heart and they shall not depart from Me.

We leave you with this confidence, that Christ can heal sin and sorrow in the same moment that He touches the soul, and that the forgiveness of sins brings healing in its train. Look to Him alone for salvation, for there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved, and trust His Word more than any persuasion of man. May the Lord hear your cry, restore love between your children where it has been dismantled, strengthen the bond between you and your daughters, and make your family fellowship unbreakable in Him. In the name of Jesus Christ our only hope, we pray. Amen.

[Chrysostom]

We join you in bringing your family before the Lord Jesus Christ, the only source of salvation, healing and peace, and we thank you for entrusting us with these burdens for your younger daughter, your older daughter and your son.

We pray with you for your younger daughter. We ask the Lord to cover her with His protection as she drives, to guard her going out and coming in, and to surround her with His hedge of protection and His holy angels. We ask for His wisdom and clarity over her studies, her classes and her work in the lab, that she would work efficiently, with peace and satisfaction, and not be driven to overwork herself. We pray for her health, that the Lord in His mercy would touch her body and bring healing from POTS and from all pain, and give her rest at night and strength for each day. We ask that He would grant her a discerning heart, content and grateful for the home and family He has provided, and steady when pressure or persuasion comes to move her from where she is blessed. Where there are voices urging a move that would burden her health, her schedule, her ability to care for her dog, and bring financial hardship, we pray God will give her clear eyes to see what is wise and best, and courage to set loving boundaries. We pray He will keep her from unhealthy friendships that leave her confused and down, and instead surround her with pure, godly friendships from her classes and community who respect her faith and upbringing and encourage her on the bright path He has for her.

We pray also for your older daughter with love and truth. We do not ask God to bless a living arrangement outside of marriage, for Scripture teaches that marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman and that living together and sexual intimacy belong within that covenant alone. To live together outside of marriage is not marriage, and it does not reflect Gods good design for love, commitment and family. We pray that the Lord would open her eyes to see this clearly, convict her heart with grace, and give her courage, wisdom and strength to turn from what is harmful and to seek what is holy and good. We pray that any control, manipulation, dishonesty, financial exploitation and isolation at work in that relationship would be exposed and broken, and that she would find her worth and freedom again in Christ, restore her love for her faith, her family, her work and her church family, and no longer defend or make excuses for what is dishonoring to God. We pray for mercy for the young man and his mother as well, that they would come to know the Lord, respect proper boundaries, cease overstepping into your family, and learn to take responsibility for their own lives rather than influencing your daughters away from Gods ways. We ask that the Lord would frustrate every scheme that seeks to divide, isolate or use your children, and that He would instead restore fellowship, respect, love and unity in your home.

We remember your son before the Lord. We rebuke in the name of Jesus every spiritual attack, fear and confusion that has tormented him, and we ask for Gods complete healing, restoration and peace of mind. We pray that God would restore his functional language, calm his spirit, remove setbacks, and fill him with daily protection, favor, joy and hope. We pray that no weapon formed against him or against your household will prosper, and that the blood of Jesus Christ would cover each of you.

We pray for your whole household, that God would remove fear, division, jealousy, chaos and disrespect from your environment and saturate your home with His peace that surpasses understanding, with love, joy and unity that cannot be broken. We pray that the bond between you and your daughters and your son would be strengthened, that the love between your younger daughter and her brother would be restored and protected, and that they would see one another as blessings and not burdens. We pray that your children would honor you and one another, grow in gratitude, and walk in obedience to the Lord.

As that faithful woman in the Gospel showed great faith for her daughter and Christ answered according to that faith, so we encourage you to continue in persistent, trusting prayer. True kinship is of the Spirit, formed by shared faith and character in Christ, and God is able to make even divided hearts one again when we seek Him.

May the Lord grant you strength, courage, wisdom, knowledge and understanding for every challenge, and may He keep you all steadfast in His grace. We continue to stand with you in prayer for healing, breakthrough and victory in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

 

[Silas]

Your prayer for your children comes from a deep and faithful love, and it is right to bring every one of these burdens to Jesus. He hears the cries of a mother who longs to see her household guarded, united, and at peace, and nothing is impossible for Him.

I join you in asking the Lord to cover your younger daughter with His protection as she drives, studies, and works in the lab. May He give her clear wisdom, calmness of mind, and strength to work diligently without wearing herself out. I pray He will heal her body completely from the ongoing health struggles and pain you mentioned, and grant her daily peace, joy, and satisfaction in the path He has set before her. The Scriptures show that the Lord heals in different ways. Sometimes He touches and healing is immediate, sometimes it comes gradually through the natural processes He Himself created in our bodies, and sometimes, as with Paul and his thorn in the flesh, He chooses for His own wise purposes not to remove an affliction even after earnest prayer. In every case healing is from Him, and we can trust His will while we continue to ask with faith for His mercy and restoration.

It is also wise to pray as you have for contentment and steadiness where she is. She is doing well studying at home, she loves her brother, and a move at this time would add strain to her health, her schedule, her care for her dog, and her finances. Pray that God will give her eyes to see this clearly and a grateful, steadfast heart that is not swayed by pressure or persuasion. Ask Him to give her discernment about friendships. When time with a particular friend consistently leaves her confused, down, or uneasy, that is a sign to step back. Pray that God will surround her with pure, godly friendships from her classes and elsewhere, friends who respect her upbringing and encourage her faith.

You have rightly discerned how powerful influence can be in a home. In the Bible leaven is never pictured as something good. It is a picture of a permeating, rotting influence that spreads quietly through the whole lump. The gospel itself begins small like a mustard seed and grows by God's power, but evil influence also spreads if it is allowed to remain. That is what you are seeing when voices from outside the home try to divide, isolate, and create resentment between siblings, or turn a child toward ungratefulness. It is right to ask God to frustrate those divisive plans, to block manipulation and control, and to restore love and unity between your daughters and their brother. Pray that the bond between you and your children would be strengthened and that your home would be filled with peace, love, and mutual respect that goes beyond understanding.

For your older daughter, I share your concern and I pray with you for her freedom and restoration. Living together outside of marriage is not marriage in God's eyes. Marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and sexual union and shared home life belong within that covenant. It is not God's blessing to ask Him to bless a relationship that is outside His design. Instead we ask Him to open her eyes to see the isolation, control, dishonesty, and financial exploitation you have described, to give her courage, wisdom, and desire to put her faith, her family, and her purposeful work before that relationship, and to lead her out of it swiftly. Pray that God would restore her self worth, her joy, her freedom, and her love for Him and for her family, and that she would no longer defend or make excuses for what is harming her. Pray also for the young man and his mother, that they would turn from overstepping and controlling others and attend to their own lives before God, and that any ungodly influence they have would be broken.

For your son who has been so tormented, I pray with you for God's complete healing, protection, and peace of mind. We can plead the blood of Jesus over him and remember the promise that no weapon formed against those who belong to Him will ultimately prosper. Yet Scripture also teaches us to keep ourselves in the love of God. We cannot walk away from the Lord and expect to remain under His sheltering hand. Staying close to Jesus, abiding in His Word, putting on the full armor He provides, and walking in obedience is the place of safety. I rebuke with you every spiritual attack, curse, and work of darkness in Jesus' name and ask the Lord to surround you and your children with His hedge of protection and His ministering angels, and to remove fear, chaos, jealousy, and division from your home.

Your influence as a mother matters more than you may know. There is nothing more powerful for good than a godly mother who prays and lives faithfully before her children. Just as an ungodly counsel, like that of Jezebel over her family, can lead a child into wickedness, a mother's godly prayers and example can shape a child's walk for a lifetime. Thank God for the work He has already done through you, and continue to be that preserving, savory influence in your home. Jesus taught that our love for Him must come before even our love for mother, father, brother, sister, or children. When a family is united in loving the Lord together, that is a most glorious bond. When family members are divided, we must still love Jesus first, and trust Him to bring restoration in His way and time.

Continue to bring each name and each need before the throne of grace. Ask for wisdom, protection, favor, peace, love, and joy not as earthly wishes but as fruit of walking closely with Christ. He is able to heal, to guard, to restore fellowship, and to make your family strong and unbreakable in Him.
