Soul ties

How do you break them? I know I still have soul ties to my ex that I need to get rid of.

I was sexually involved and in love with a man for over 5 years, and even though it ended in devastation for me and even though he treated me horribly, I still longed for him, I was still tied. When I gave my life to Jesus, He began to change me and heal me from my past. It takes time, but it is part of the process of healing. The memories are still there, but they are not painful and I'm not bitter. I stopped thinking about him after some time, I don't long for him, my heart no longer flutters when I see his name, I don't compare other men to him, I don't talk about him, I was freed by Jesus.

What I'm trying to say is that I believe only God can deliver you from the soul ties, it will take submitting you life to Him, spending time in prayer and in the Word, fellowshipping with and being encouraged by other Christians. These things, will enable the Holy Spirit to do the work of sanctification and regeneration, severing you from your old life, making you more like Jesus.

I haven't the slightest clue. I get very connected to the people I love. When they get sick, I get sick. If they need me, I know. If somethings wrong, I dream it. Sometimes it even seems like I could hear their voices.
About 11 years ago, I was sitting in the living room chatting when I experienced the most piercing pain in my right hand. I started screaming and crying and everybody kept asking me if I hit my hand or something.
Anyway come to find out, that at that exact moment 3:27 pm, my brother was in a motorcycle accident and broke his hand in the exact spot. Oh yeah, we were in separate countries at the time.
My mom was so spooked she got down on her knees and prayed really hard for that tie to break. It's not so bad anymore, but I still feel people's pain.
 
For me, what helped was getting deep into the WORD. Once my focus was placed on strengthened my spiritual relationship, I didn't have time to think about my ex. Additionally, If there was anything that he has done that has you hurting in any way, you need to forgive him in your heart...and not for him, but for you...it is hard to let go when something is tying you, and unforgiveness can keep you tied to a person and/or situation

The book Woman Thou Art Loosed:Healing the Wounds of the Past really helped me let go of past pain, bonds and ties that hindered me from forming new relationships. I highly recommend this book.

Soul Ties
This page is part of our sample prayers section
A soul tie is a spiritual connection between our soul and that of another person. Soul ties are important to address in sex addiction because they can hold us back from achieving complete victory over our addiction.
There are good soul ties and bad soul ties. Good soul ties are commonly created in marriage and healthy friendships (Malachi 2:15; Genesis 2:24, 1 Chronicles 12:17, Colossians 2:2). Bad soul ties are created through sinful relationships and/or activities. Examples of situations that could create bad soul ties:
  • Sex sin: Sex unites people physically, emotionally and spiritually. If we have sex with people other than our spouse, we create soul ties that cause all kinds of problems (spiritual confusion, emotional confusion, sex addiction, compulsivity, obsession, etc.).
  • Looking at sex images, memories, objects and fetishes: These activities can establish a soul tie with an evil spirit. An example of this is found in Hosea 4:17 when Ephraim became joined with his idols. A tie may not be established in every instance, but it is certainly possible. Example objects: a favorite porn depiction, a garment worn by a former lover, pictures of former lovers, a cherished sexual memory.
  • Sexual abuse/molestation: This can result in soul ties between the perpetrator and the victim. If you have been involved in sexual abuse, please seek healing prayer and Christian counsel as you proceed in your journey to freedom. Visit our counseling page for more info.
  • "Unhealthy" relationships: Examples include relationships characterized by manipulation, guilt, emotional abuse, co-dependency, unnatural affection, envy and/or lust.
How to know if you have a bad soul tie:
  • Ask the Lord: Take a moment to ask God in prayer to show you if you have soul ties that need to be severed. If the Lord brings people to mind or you think there is a possibility of a soul tie, proceed to pray to cut the soul tie.
  • Look at the fruit: A way to determine the nature of a soul tie is to examine its fruit (Matthew 7:16-18). Good soul ties will bear good fruit; examples being love, blessing, fidelity, loyalty, honor, righteousness, etc. The overall effect of the good soul tie will be to strengthen our emotional wholeness and our walk with God. Bad soul ties will bear bad fruit, examples being hatred, resentment, curses, manipulation, anger, strife, jealousy, control, bitterness, etc. The overall effect of bad soul ties will be to hold us back from enjoying our relationship with God and to keep us in bondage to whatever we struggle with.
Cutting soul ties: We can cut soul ties by praying in the authority of Jesus Christ. The idea is to identify the source, confess/repent from any sin you committed related to it, cut the ties in Jesus' name, ask God to remove all negative effects and ask for restoration to wholeness. If you are cutting soul ties related to an object, be sure to destroy the object and remove it from your home. Here's a sample prayer:
"Father God, I thank you for saving me from destruction. I praise you for sending Jesus to die for my sins. Please forgive me for my sins against you. Specifically, I confess that I ______________(details of the sin & names). I repent of that sin and renounce it now. Lord, please purify my heart from this sin, the memory of it and any associated fantasy I have entertained in my mind regarding it. In the name of Jesus Christ and by the power of his blood shed on the cross, I cut myself free from any soul ties that may have been established with _______ (name (s) or specific objects). I commit him/her/them to the care of Jesus Christ for him to do with as he wills. Satan, I rebuke you in all your works and ways. I rebuke any evil spirits that have a foothold in me. In the name of Jesus, I command you evil spirits to leave me and go directly to Jesus Christ. Father, please heal my soul of any wounds resulting from these soul ties. Please reintegrate any part of me that may have been detained through this/these soul ties and restore me to wholeness. I also ask that you will reintegrate any part of the person(s) I sinned with that has been detained in me, and restore them to wholeness. Thank you, Lord, for your healing power and your perfect love for me. May I glorify you with my life from this point forward. In Jesus' name, Amen."
For those who feel uncomfortable cutting the soul ties themselves, here is a prayer that asks God to cut the ties for us:
"Father God, Thank you for saving me from destruction. I praise you for sending Jesus to die for my sins. Specifically, I confess that I have sinned in the following ways: ______________(details of the sin & names). I repent from those sins and renounce them now. Please forgive me and cleanse my conscience with the blood of Jesus. Lord, please cut the unhealthy soul ties between me and _______ (list name (s)). Please restore me to wholeness in spirit, soul and body and reintegrate any part of me that was involved with those soul ties. I also ask for the salvation and restoration of those people that I was involved with. I commit him/her/them to your care. I rebuke any evil spirits that may have gained a foothold in me from that sin. I command you to leave me and go to Jesus Christ now! Thank you, Lord, for setting me free to live as the new person in Christ you made me to be! I praise you now and forever, Amen!"

Hey,

What is important at this time is for you to pray to the Father to give you the answers that you need. I know sometimes its easier to ask someone else for prayer, but God desires to hear your heart concerning this matter.

Sit and listen to God, your Father. He will give you all the things you need to break this...only He can do this for you.

Blessings.

I went through something similiar last year with an old highschool sweetheart. I would dream, day dream and think about this man daily. I was like "no deals". I gotta do something to break this soul tie.

I'm glad to say that now I only see him as a brother in Christ.:yep:

In took me a while, but what I did was cry out to the Lord. I was honest with Him about my feelings for this man and I wanted them to cease. I cried out to Him until the soul tie was broken. You know what the best part was? The best part was having the Holy Spirit comfort me.:yep:
 
I have soul ties. Here is hwat I've learned and pulled form other places:

*****
Kinitting

The fruit of the spirit is what defines a healthy and unheathy soul tie. The bible talks about the ties of the soul in many ways.

When we marry, and we bond in covenant ourselves to someone, we have created a soul tie. Genesis 2:24 "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and shall become united and cleave to his wife, and they shall become one flesh."

The bible often describes this process as "knitting".


<SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt"><FONT face="Comic Sans MS">The dictionary defines the word “knit” as “to link firmly or closely and to grow together or to become drawn together.” There are several examples of this language. “So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man.” (Judges 20:11)
 
That was an awesome prayer and I thank you so much for posting it. I have been struggling for years with cutting and keeping ties cut. I am rejoicing in my new future b/c I know Jesus died for this sin already. Thank you again for sharing! Please keep me in your prayers.

:grin:
