The Perverse Dad
But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. Ephesians 5:3 NIV
This is the Dad that is having a sexual relationship with his daughter, granddaughter, sons, or grandson.

Lord, I pray in the name of Jesus that You will heal and deliver the Perverse Dad. Lord, heal and deliver the Dad from sexual abuse if he was abused as a child. Lord, I pray that he will never be able to hurt another child as long as he lives. Lord, cut this perverted seed at the root. Break the generational curse. Bind up the hand of the enemy. Lord heal and deliver this Dad from this mean and cruel act that is not right in Your sight. Lord, I pray that You will deal with his mind and remind him that this is wrong. Don’t allow his heart to continue to push it out of his mind. Remove the stony place in his heart, and give him a pliable heart that You can deal with the issue that is causing pain and turmoil in his life. Lord, I pray that the father will not impregnate any of the girls he is sleeping with.

Return the Perverse Dad’s mind around where he will know and follow what Your word says about sex. Let him know that it is against Your law for a man to be with his child, grandchild, niece, or nephew. Bind up the hand of the enemy from hurting any child that may be visiting his children. Lord, remove the spirit of lust from the Perverse Dad.
If the father refuses to get help and leaves the house, I pray he will be arrested. If the Perverse Dad happens to be arrested, I pray other family members will not hate the child or shun them due to their willingness to speak up against this abuse. Lord, help the mother, sister, brother, believe what is being said about the Perverse Dad. Don’t allow the Perverse Dad to play mind games on the child, like telling them this is their fault, or ‘all families do this’. Allow this not to be a dark subject in the church anymore. Allow Your people of God, be able to minister to dads about this. Allow the dad to get professional help. Don’t allow the dad to sell his child for any amount of money, fame or drugs.
PRAYERS FOR THE CHILDREN
Don’t allow them to think that this abuse is normal. Allow them to tell someone until someone listens to them. Allow the parents to heed warning signs if the child is too afraid to tell their Mom. Lord, if it is father or stepfather, allow the Mom to do something. Don’t allow her to ignore the child.

Lord, help the child that has been violated by their father or grandfather in any way. Lord, I pray You will heal them from all hurt, pain, shame, and embarrassment. Remove the trauma of the child being abused. Lord, bind up the hand of depression, self-harm and suicidal thoughts and action. Lord, let them realize that this is not their fault; that they did not do anything to cause this affliction to take place. Remove the feeling from the child that would cause them to feel ‘nasty.’ Renew their mind in Jesus’ name. Remove any residual side effects from the child being abused.
Lord, I pray that You will close up the portal, so no more abuse will take place in the child's life. Lord, bind the hands of the enemy. Cover them with Your blood in Jesus’ name. Give them back their innocence, and the natural desire for a sexual relationship according to Your word. Lord, bind up the hand of the enemy that will cause the child to harm another child. Don’t allow this child to grow up and be a sexual predator. Break the yoke of bondage with Your anointing. Prevent them from hurting anyone else. Break the curse. Allow them to receive help from Your people that You have put in place to help minister to them. Lord, bind up the hand of the enemy that would make the child that was abused be promiscuous with the spirit of masturbation and lust. Lord, I command in Your name, that You send the spirits of incubus and succubus to go to outer darkness. Lord, then fill the abused child up with

Your spirit. Lord, allow them to see themselves as whole again: don’t allow them to keep replaying the abuse in their mind repeatedly. Lord don’t allow what happened when the child was younger to continue to bother them in adulthood. Lord, I pray that the child will be able to walk in forgiveness toward themself and the person that violated them.
Lord, stop the cycle of abuse. Allow the mother to choose the child over the husband or boyfriend. Lord, bind the hand of the enemy that would keep the adult from making the decision that will help the child--no matter if she is ridiculed or not. Don’t allow the mother to become paralyzed because the same thing happened to her. Don’t allow the grown up to turn a deaf ear, or say, “This is no big deal” because the same thing happened to them, and they were ‘okay’.
Lord, I pray that children will not ridicule or be mean to a child if they found out what happened to the child.
