5 Steps to Defeat Spiritual Spouses

Have you ever woken up feeling disturbed or violated after having vivid dreams of sexual encounters?

Do these dreams involve mysterious men or women you’ve never met before? If so, you are experiencing visits from a spirit husband or spirit wife.

A spirit spouse is a deceptive demonic spirit that appears in your dreams to have sex with you.

This oppressive spirit comes to steal, kill, and destroy certain areas of your life, especially your marriage and relationships.

The spirit spouse manifests through:

• Strange sexual dreams with unknown men/women.
• Feeling raped or violated during the dreams.
• Waking up feeling drained of energy.
• A lack of affection for your spouse.
• Marital discord and relationship problems.
• Financial hardship or career confusion.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s time to take a stand and evict this trespasser from your life!

In this post, you’ll learn 5 proven ways to defeat a spirit spouse through prayer, Scripture declarations, and spiritual warfare.

With God’s power at work within you, you’ll kick these demonic spirits out of your life in the name of Jesus!

1. Get Angry and Pray Fervently Against Spirit Spouses

The first key to defeating a spirit spouse is to get angry and pray fervently. Pull down the stronghold giving this spirit access to you (2 Corinthians 10:4).

Joyce Meyer defines a stronghold as, “an area in your life where you’re stuck in bondage—any part of your life in which Satan has imprisoned you.”

Don’t tolerate or shrug off these demonic visits as just bad dreams. Recognize them for what they are – trespasses into your life!

• Begin to pray aggressively against this oppressive spirit. Command it to take its hands off your life, marriage, and body in Jesus’ name!

• Refuse to be a passive victim – let your prayers be filled with holy anger and authority against this intruder.

• Ask God to thwart the plans of the enemy and grant you victory over this harassment.

• Keep praying persistently until you gain a breakthrough.

This spirit spouse must recognize and submit to the name and authority of Jesus!

2. Fast to Empower Your Prayers Against the Spirit Wife or Spirit Husband

To drive out stubborn spiritual entities like the spirit spouse, fasting is often required. Jesus said:

“However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”

Matthew 17:21 (NKJV)

Set aside 3-7 days for prayer and fasting targeted against the spirit spouse.

This will empower your prayers with heavenly authority to evict this unwanted spirit husband or wife.

Spend this time focusing intensely on binding this evil spirit, cutting off its access, and commanding it to leave in Jesus’ name.

Through fasting prayer, the spirit spouses will have no choice but to pack their bags and leave!

3. Declare Relevant Scripture to Get Deliverance From Spirit Spouses

In spiritual warfare, we don’t fight with traditional weapons. Instead, we declare the powerful Word of God!

Here are 5 key Scriptures to declare against a spirit spouse:

1. 1 Corinthians 6:19 (NLT)

“Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself.”

Remind yourself and the spirit spouse that your body belongs to God alone. As His temple, no unclean spirit can dwell within it.

2. 1 Corinthians 6:17 (NLT)

“But the person who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him.”

Declare that as a child of God, you are joined to the Lord Jesus Christ as one spirit. Therefore, you can have no covenant with a spirit spouse.

3. Isaiah 54:14 (ESV)

“In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear, and from terror, for it shall not come near you.”

Declare by faith that through Christ, you are now firmly rooted in righteousness. Therefore, you are and will remain far from all demonic oppression and terror.

4. Isaiah 54:5 (NIV)

“For your Maker is your husband – the Lord Almighty is his name.”

Renounce any ungodly marriage certificates or covenants initiated by the spirit spouse. Declare that the Lord God Almighty is your only true spiritual husband.

5. 1 John 4:4 (NKJV)

“He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”

Decree that greater is He who is in you (Holy Spirit) than any demonic spirit spouse or entity coming against you.

Victory is yours in Christ!

4. Cut Soul Ties and Renounce Any Tokens from the Spirit Spouse

A spirit spouse will create ungodly soul ties with you through demonic covenants and tokens like wedding rings or certificates.

You must cut off these soul ties and renounce any rings, jewelry, or tokens the spirit spouse may have placed on your finger or presented to you in the dreams.

Verbally break their control and command these tokens to burn to ashes in Jesus’ name!

Call upon the Lord Jesus to completely break every ungodly soul tie to the spirit spouse. Through the blood of Jesus, you can be free!

5. Ask God to Restore Your Marriage

One of the goals of a spirit spouse is to destroy your marriage or relationship. That’s why it’s important to ask God to restore intimacy and affection between you and your natural spouse.

Pray for emotional and spiritual healing in your marriage.

Also, ask the Lord to expose the spirit spouse’s true identity and motives. Pray for Him to remove any veils and reveal the spirit’s sinister schemes against you.

Ask God to dispatch His angels to arrest the spirit spouse and evict it completely from your life.

Finally, proclaim that greater is He who is in you than any enemy coming against you!

The same power that raised Christ from the dead dwells in you (Romans 8:11 NIV).

“And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.”
