According to John 14:18, the Bible says that “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you” because “You have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.” Romans 8:15.
What Is an Orphan Spirit?
The orphan spirit originates from separation from God’s presence (in Adam), rejection, trauma, abandonment, or lack of spiritual fathering or mothering. It thrives in environments where love is conditional or absent. It causes a believer to live as though they have no Father in heaven—even though they are already adopted through Christ.
10 Signs of The Orphan Spirit In A Believer
- Feels rejected or abandoned—even when surrounded by people
- Struggles to accept love and affirmation from others
- Performance mentality: trying to earn God’s love through works
- Jealousy or competition—because one feels there’s no place for them
- Difficulty trusting God as a Father
- Identity crisis—not knowing who they truly are in Christ
- Feelings of loneliness even in a crowd
- Self-protection and independence— “I can’t rely on anyone but myself.”
- Fear of punishment rather than assurance of God’s love
- Constantly comparing yourself to others.
Let’s Pray Against This Orphan Spirit.
1. Let every demonic spirit that entered through childhood trauma, parental neglect, absentee father or mother, or broken family structures come out of my life right now, in Jesus’ name.
2. Heavenly Father, I renounce every orphan spirit operating in my life. I receive the Spirit of Adoption whereby I cry, “Abba, Father.” I declare: I am not fatherless! I am loved, chosen, accepted, and sealed by the Holy Spirit of sonship, in Jesus’ name.
3. In the mighty name of Jesus, I command every orphan spirit lingering in my home, room, thoughts, or atmosphere to pack their loads and leave now.
