How beautiful it is to have a son, right? While girls are also truly a blessing, boys resemble authority and power in a household, which is why many people desire to have at least one son.
Because the devil is aware of the anointing over the boy child, he is constantly on the move, looking for sons to devour, deterring them from a bright future.
Such scary information calls for parents to commit their dear sons to the Lord more than ever to break every yoke of the enemy over their lives. Below are seven powerful prayers to release strongholds on your son and set him free from any negative forces.
1) Short Prayer to Release Strongholds on My Son
“Heavenly Father,
Thank You for the gift of my son, who has been a blessing to me since the day he was born. I desire the very best for my beloved son so I pray for blessings over him.
Please, release every stronghold sent by Satan to prevent my son’s progress in life. You said in Your Word that he who the sun sets free is free indeed. I believe this with all my heart and declare that my son has been released.
Amen.”

Strongholds come in different forms. They could be physical in the form of sickness or spiritual, where we have demonic possessions or curses.
Whatever form of stronghold your son may be under, there is power in the name of Jesus to break that chain. You only need to cry out to the Lord with unshaken faith.
The Bible offers numerous examples of strongholds on sons. In John 9:37-43, Jesus cured a boy under the torture of an evil spirit that caused physical harm. The boy’s father begged Jesus to cure his only son, fearing for his life.
This story serves as a good example of the power parents have over interceding for their children. Be encouraged today that God will hear your plea for your son and release him from strongholds.

2) Powerful Prayer to Remove Evil from My Son
“Omnipotent Father,
I cry to You on behalf of my boy, who is under the influence of evil forces. Lord, the evil is preventing my family and son from experiencing the wonderful blessings You have in store for us.
I beg that You may remove the evil from my son now. I ask for peace that emanates only from You and not from worldly things. If my son has been involved in any activities that bear evil spirits, I pray that You may separate him from such immediately.
In Jesus’ name, I pray,

Amen.”
“If you believe, everything is possible” — Mark 9:24. Jesus made that powerful statement to the father who pleaded for the healing of his son, who was under the influence of an evil spirit.
The father then said, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” Like the father, if you feel any sense of doubt, pray that God deals with it so your son can be released.
Furthermore, it’s advisable to try to get to the root cause of the evil in your son. Perhaps it was a curse proclaimed against him or he involved himself with dark activities.
As a parent, it’s always best to know what your child does when not home. In a world that’s increasingly getting darker, being actively involved in your son’s affairs will help you know how best to advise and pray for him.
3) Miracle Prayer for My Son’s Protection
“Lord,
I come to You today asking for my son’s protection. When he leaves home to go about his day, I don’t know where he goes or who he interacts with. But because You are always with him, I pray for the miracle of his protection.
May You spread your wings of protection over my son so that no harm may befall him. May you scatter the plans of the enemy to cause my dear one harm right now in the mighty name of Jesus.
Amen.”

As Christians, we live by faith. This means that once you pray for your son, you should have faith that God will protect him wherever he goes.
Of course, it’s not possible to be with our children every time. And the older they get, the less frequently we see them as they spread their wings and get independent.
As a caring parent, the best you can do is uphold your son to the Lord, asking Him to watch over your boy and leave it to Him.
God is omnipresent, and He sees and watches over your child, even when you are not around. So relax knowing that after making this prayer, your son is safe under God’s tender care.

4) Strong Prayer to Release Strongholds on My Son
“Father,
Before my son was born, you fashioned him in the womb and made him perfect. You declared his future long before he entered into this world.
I believe that Your plans for my son are great. He has a divine purpose to meet, but the strongholds are hindering him from keeping to the blessed path You set for him.
I pray through the Son and the Holy Spirit that You may release all strongholds on my son right now. Let him be made whole again. I pray and believe,
Amen.”

You don’t have to pray many words for your prayer to be powerful. The most powerful prayer is one made with a believing heart. Also, remember that prayer is more potent than other religious practices like exorcism.
The most powerful men in the Bible, such as Jesus, Elisha, Elijah and other prophets, were able to release strongholds through simple prayers, not acts of exorcism.
This is a lesson in that before running to religious priests for exorcism of your son, take time to get on your knees praying.
Going back to the story of the father who begged Jesus for the healing of his son, he asked for help from the disciples who were unable to heal the boy. Jesus later told his disciples that only some spirits could come out through prayer (Mark 9:29).
I believe you will love these prayers to remove a toxic person from your life.
5) Strength Prayer for My Son
“Dear Lord,
Please be merciful to my son and grant him strength. These strongholds have taken hold of him, stealing his peace and natural state of life.
I am in pain watching my child go through torment, Lord. May You strengthen and comfort him. Let him know that You are Lord over his life and that You will deliver him from the strongholds.
Amen.”

As you pray for the deliverance of your son, it’s important to encourage him to seek a personal relationship with the Heavenly Father. Remember that your salvation cannot save your children. They, too, should seek to know Christ on their own.
As parents, we should not only pray for our children, but also train them in the way of the truth. So that when they are old, they shall not depart from it (Proverbs 22:6).
However, do not be dismayed if you didn’t raise your son in Christianity when he was young. It’s never too late to preach salvation to him or pray that He finds Christ.
6) Prayer to Protect My Child from Evil Spirits
“Loving Father,
I commend my child to You today, asking that You would protect him from evil spirits. We live in a cruel world, and every day my child is surrounded by evil forces, he may not perceive.
Please preserve my child under Your caring arms, keeping him from evil spirits that seek to cause harm to him.
I believe and trust,

Amen.”
As Christians, we always fight a never-ending battle against the devil and his evil spirits. Having a powerful prayer like this one will provide a surefire way of fighting evil presence in your child’s life as well as your family’s.
“The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” — 2 Corinthians 10:4-5.
7) Prayer to Remove Negative Energies from My Son
“Merciful Christ,
I humbly approach Your throne, pleading that You may have mercy on my son and eradicate all negative energies from his life.
Please don’t let him be consumed by depression, suicidal thoughts, crime, drugs, lust and all the forces that seek to destroy youthful men like him. Lead him to restoration and back to the way of light and truth.
Amen.”

While the world dictates that we deal with our problems through suicide, crime, alcoholism and drugs, among other counterproductive activities, as Christians, we should direct our problems to the Most High.
rust in the Lord to remove negative energies from your son.
Proclaim Jeremiah 29:11 over your son, “For God knows the plans He has for my son, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give him a future and a hope.” You could also send him this scripture to uplift his spirits.
