Elisha's Mantle
A prayer for Generational Sins ... Lord, the trouble in _________‘s life has come down through the generations. We know we are helpless to break the patterns of sin which have descended and so we take them to the cross.
We ask You to place the cross of Jesus between __________‘s family and everyone in the family line before him. Shield them from the effects of _________________ (be specific). Scripture tells us that Jesus came to destroy the works of Satan. We ask that You destroy those patterns by which Satan has access to this family. Stop them on Your cross, 0 God.
Lord, we pray that Your cleansing blood will wash back through the bloodlines. We pray for forgiveness in those areas where _________ has participated in the sin,
(be specific in naming any known involvement),
and we ask You to remove the ground of the enemy’s attack. May the blood of Jesus cover and the family. We repent and thank You for Your healing.
Lord, we ask You to destroy the structures surrounding this sin. We bind in Jesus’ name any familiar spirit which has urged this family into participation of the sin.
Replace the “familiar” with Your angels, Lord. You tell us in Scripture that Your angels are to take charge of us and cover us in all our ways. Send this family an angel to deliver them out of their troubles. Psalm 34
