Question
A prophet ministered to my son at a service he attened with his father and told him there is a spirit of manipulation and witchcraft in our household, and that these spirits are not coming from us  (my son and I). My husband who has been in the ministry over 30+ years is the only other person in the house. What is the spirit of witchcraft and the spirit of manipulation and what are their characteristics? They also told him to share with me that no matter who I'm with ( mate) I will never be happy? What do you think of this ? Doesn't God want us to be happy? Marriage is His Idea? I don't understand. There was also another prophet, prophetess, and pastor confirming what was being said to my son he is 16. He was brought up in the admonition of the Lord so he is not new to this type of ministering. I'm asking God for understanding and direction. Thanks for listening...May the Lord bless you richly and give you wisdom..praying for you.

Answer
If I am understanding you correctly, these spirits that are in your household are not coming from you or your son. But they are implying that they are coming from your husband.
First of all, they should have told you how to get rid of the spirits in your house. We had spirits in our house one time and the Lord told me to anoint the house. I started at the corner of the property in the front yard and anointed both corners. Then we anointed each room’s doorposts and prayed for the spirits to leave. As we traveled through the house, our son’s room got the strongest reaction from the Holy Ghost. We ended up at the back door and we were shouting in the Spirit as the spirits left our property. We ended with anointing of the back corners of our property.
When we started our church, there was a lot of opposition to the church. Our church is located in the inner city in a house that was willed to us. Anyways, we anointed the opposition’s property, binding the spirits that were against us. We now have a ministry that is accepted in the neighborhood.
You need to have your husband join you in anointing the property to drive out these spirits. If he will not do this, then you must do this yourself. I would advise the Pastor of what I am doing. If your husband is the Pastor, then he should already know this.
My wife would not hesitate to do this, as spirits can sometimes influence people even if they have the Spirit of God in them.
I pray this has helped you.
