My step daughter is 15 years old and at her age she went through more than I have at 31 years old. She lost her mother to drugs at the age of 6. She never went to the wake nor the funeral due to the maternal grandmother's wishes. She thought its best for 'Shea' to remember her mother the last time she saw her alive. But the last time she saw her wasn't a remembering anyone would like to have. Now at her age of 15 - she misses her mom all her love ones have answers to her questions about her mother but she is afraid to say anything feeling like she is going to hurt their feelings. She failed 2 classes and have to attend summer school. My husband (her father ) and I want the best for this young lady. She is following around the wrong crowd and the grandmother doesn't have a good handle on the situation. The grandmother is allowing this young lady to do what ever she wants when ever and there is no punishment. She is raising the granddaughter the same exact way she is raised the daughter - and we all are fighting for a better outcome in this situation. Even the maternal grandfather and uncles and aunts wants this young lady to stay with me and my husband. Please help me pray for my daughter (step) that she sees that the route that she is heading is not in the right direction no matter what her cool friends think or says. I don't want her to go in the direction her mother did - she is writing to a 27year old man in jail and thinks it is ok. But the grandmother isn't putting her foot down. And telling her no different. The grandmother forward a letter from this person who is in jail for drugs and other stuff to where she was at during the summer last year - with us. Its an hour and half drive from where we live at to where she resides at with her grandmother. I don't have a daughter - I have 2 sons 10 & 3 and I have been apart of her life since she was 6 months old. I love her as if I gave birth to her myself . I need salvation for my daughter that she will see the light before its too late. Like her mother. My husband her father is heart broken to see his daugther starting down the same path as her mother did before it was way too late to help her. And even when people was helping her mother - she wouldn't think her problem was that out of control that she couldn't handle it. Please pray for my step daughter she needs guidance she needs disipline in her life. She needs closure of her mother's untimily death and strenght to continue on the righteous path in life. Thank you - a friend in Christ.

In the Name of Jesus I break the family curse of drug addiction and rebellion off of Shea, off of her children and grandchildren to the coming of the Lord. I break the deafening roar of the world off of her ear and speak the life of Salvation into her ears!
Holy Spirit work in Shea's life to bring her to Salvation, Healing, and Deliverance from the hand of satan and the familiar spirits that surround her! Give her Healing from the pain of losing her Mama but let her see the reality of that loss to drugs and remove her from that same hell.
Jesus, I can understand why her Gramma wants to keep this child with her, she is the only thing she has left of her daughter, but, this child is not a thing, she is a living breathing child and needs to be raised by parents not a grieving grandparent who allows her to do things that would destroy her because she cannot say no to her.
I stand here in the gap for this child, Shea, and speak life and healing into her spirit and life. I speak a secure up-bringing with her Father and step-Mother. I speak Your salvation into her life and spirit. Build up an hedge of protection for Shea and a strong tower for her to run to!
Holy spirit, work in her life to bring her into a Salvation Relationship with Jesus! Raise her up in Jesus. Make her hungry for God and Jesus! Make her thirsty for the Word of God! Bring her to Jesus!
AMEN! Thank You Father for this child's Life! Thank You for her Salvation! Thank You! AMEN! AMEN!! AMEN!!!!!!

Heavenly Father I stand in agreement with Yamaira by lifting up step daughter Shea. Father God I bind this young girl to you and I pray that the devil and his angels be cast out of her life. I pray that Shea turns her life over to you as soon as possible. I pray that you will become the first priority in her life. I pray for her salvation. I ask this in Jesus' name. Amen and Amen

Thank you all for praying with me and my family for the salavation of my 15 year old step daughter. I continue to call on the name of Jesus in rebuking the devil out of her life. She is so young have been through so much hell already in her life time that it seems she is constantly fighting him. 
But in Jesus' name she will always be the victor. She is a King's Kid. Which means she is indeed something - no matter what the devil tries to say to her - We had a talk after we (my husband and I ) drove her home so she can start summer school on monday. I told her how much I love her. I also spoke to her about praying - calling on His Glorious Name. And thanking him for the little things. getting up in the morning, food on the table, a roof over our heads, little things that we naturally take for granted. I also told her that when she prays - so put her heart into the words that she is saying to HIM, not just words just to say them. Call on Him. She doesn't go to church when she is with her grandmother but when she is up here with us she goes to church. She is 15 years old and don't know the creation story in the Bible. She don't know about Cain and Able. or Noah. But she wants to learn - she wants to know who they are and what Bible teaches us. Continue to pray for us because this journey on this road is not over yet. I know the devil is everywhere and is costantly being the monkey on this young lady's back. But in Jesus' Name I cast the devil out of my daughter's situation - out of her life and that she will indeed seek the true Kingdom of the Most Holy One. In Jesus' Name I pray - In Your Name Father God Your will Is done.
Amen Amen Amen

This is truly heart-rending. My heart hurts for all of you. I am glad you get to visit with your step-daughter, many of us don't. I thank God you have been there to teach her from so young an age. She will remember when the time is right.
Father, thank You for helping Shea learn about You, for Your glory. We ask that You continue to protect her life and if it is a part of her life that she marries someday, we ask that she marries a man who is as strong in his faith with You as her step-mother is. Let her continue to enjoy learning more about You as she goes down life's path with You, and help her to bring her grandmother to know You before she leaves this world. We ask that she is able to learn to be disciplined by You, before she attempts to go out into the world, since the world doesn't love her as much as You and her parents do. And if this 27 year old man is the one You would have her to marry, we pray that You will save him and fill him with Your Spirit before he gets out of jail.
In Jesus we ask, Amen.
