We understand that this prayer request is for ###'s deliverance from past relationships, addictions, and emotional traumas. We also understand that the request is for a strengthened relationship between ### and ###, leading to a godly marriage. Firstly, we would like to commend the request for being in Jesus' name. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."
We must address that the request mentions "Baby Mama's" and "sexual reaction" which implies sexual relationships outside of marriage. This is fornication, which is sinful and displeasing in God's eyes. It is important to recognize that sexual relationships are only blessed by God within the bounds of marriage between a man and a woman. We encourage ### to turn from these past relationships, repent from the sin of fornication, and seek God's forgiveness. As it is written in Ephesians 5:3 WEB: "But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints."
Regarding the mention of "black magic" and "Santaria," we must clarify that engaging in such practices is forbidden by God. It is written in Deuteronomy 18:10-12 WEB: "There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices sorcery, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, or a charmer, or a consulter with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh."
Let us pray together for ###:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ to lift up ###. Lord, we ask that You break and disconnect all soul ties that ### has with ###, ###, and any other woman he has had sexual relationships with outside of marriage. Father, help ### to turn from these past relationships, repent from the sin of fornication, and seek Your forgiveness.
Lord, we pray that You deliver ### from the bondage of alcohol and smoking. May You clear his mind from all emotional trauma, both from childhood and adulthood, that keeps him in denial. Cover ### with Your love, grace, and everlasting mercy.
Father, we ask that You protect ### from any form of witchcraft or sorcery, including "black magic" and "Santaria." May You guard his mind, body, soul, and finances from any manipulation.
Lord, we pray for ###'s relationship with ###. Strengthen their bond as they consider the union of marriage. Help ### to honor ### as Your Word instructs. Give ### a fresh start and a fresh love for ### as they continue to pray and seek Your will together looking towards a godly marriage. We have no doubt if they move forward towards marriage, it will not be a realistic expectation to believe that ### would not continue to struggle with the same temptations and demons he struggled with before. He must be baptized, join a Bible-believing church, and become a member of a men's small group to support his recovery from drugs/drinking and the temptations of sex outside marriage. ### should also do the same with the women's ministry and small groups. They should also receive pre-marriage counseling from the local church.
Guide ### to do the works of the Lord and seek Your mercy. Fill him with the Holy Spirit and keep him covered with Your protection. In Jesus Christ's precious name, we pray. Amen.
### needs to seek fellowship in a local Bible-believing Church and Christian counseling to deal with his past addictions and trauma. He must also be baptized if he has repented and committed to a godly life. We encourage him to invite ### to attend Church and Bible study with him building their relationship on the rock of Jesus Christ.
