Father, according to Your Word we have been given the ministry of reconciliation, and I release this ministry and the word of reconciliation into this family situation.

I will not break his/her spirit, in the name of Jesus and by the power of the Holy Spirit. Father, I forgive my child for the wrongs he/she has done and stand in the gap until he/she comes to his/her senses and escapes out of the snare of the enemy (rebellion).

Thank You for bringing my child back into a healthy relationship with You and with me that our lives might glorify You! Amen.
Lord Jesus Christ, I ask for wisdom in my teen's situation. You have eyes where I don't and know that which I don't. I pray for significant details, information to be revealed that has been hidden, and for people to come forward who have been silenced. Lead me where I should go and speak to those who may know more so I can start the restoration process for my teen.
In Jesus name I command the fears, worries, cares and burdens of this situation to leave my mind. Lord, I ask that you fill me with a supernatural peace that passes all understanding. In Jesus name I break this spirit of rebellion off of my son/daughter. I claim him/her for the kingdom of God. God has a plan and a purpose for my child's life. I am determined that they will fulfill their divine assignment on this earth. Satan I now command you to leave my son/daughter. You have no power over them. I cover them under the blood of the Lamb. Amen
Dear Lord I lift up my son/daughter to you. You know what we have been through, how we have suffered and what a toll this has taken on us. First Lord I offer my son/daughter back to you. You gave him/her to us as a gift and now I lay them at your feet. I cannot love this child the way that I need to but I ask that you would love them through me. Amen
Lord Jesus Christ, show me where I need to pray and how I need to pray. I lift up my home to You and ask for Your cleansing from the very top to the very bottom, and around the property line. I pray over every room, passageway, and entrance. May You send Your army of angels to stand post and protect this home. Amen
Lord Jesus Christ, I pray over my teen's room and ask for revelation. I pray you show me where to pray, what to get rid of, and how to pray in their room. May You send Your warrior angels to come in and cleanse this room of anything that is not from you. Amen

Amen
