We hear the deep distress and spiritual turmoil in your words, and we come before the Lord with you, lifting your heart and mind to Him in earnest prayer. You have called upon the name of Jesus, and that is where true power and deliverance lie. Let us first affirm the truth of Scripture: *"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit"* (Romans 8:1). Though you are burdened by past sins, memories, and spiritual attacks, Jesus has already overcome the world, and in Him, you can find freedom.
Your confession reveals a heart that is wrestling with guilt, fear, and the lingering effects of sin—both your own and the influence of others. We must address these things with the truth of God’s Word. First, let us rebuke the spiritual attacks you describe. The Bible is clear: *"Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour"* (1 Peter 5:8). The strange voices, visions, and oppressive thoughts you describe are not from God. They are the work of the enemy, who seeks to accuse, confuse, and torment you. But Jesus has given you authority over these forces: *"Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way harm you"* (Luke 10:19).
We pray now with boldness in the name of Jesus:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your child, who is crying out for deliverance. Lord Jesus, You are the Prince of Peace, the Breaker of Chains, and the Conqueror of Death. We rebuke every demonic spirit that has sought to torment, accuse, or oppress this brother—whether through visions, voices, or memories of the past. We command these spirits to flee in the name of Jesus Christ, for greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Lord, break every ungodly soul tie formed through sinful interactions, whether in person or through media, games, or substances. Cleanse his mind of every defiling image, every lascivious thought, and every word that has been spoken against him or that he has spoken in ignorance. Wash him in the blood of the Lamb and restore his mind to the purity of Christ.
Father, we ask for forgiveness for the sins he has confessed—for the lust of the eyes, for the words spoken in anger or cursing, for the participation in things that have opened doors to the enemy. We thank You that Your mercy is new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23) and that You cast our sins as far as the east is from the west (Psalm 103:12). Lord, we ask that You sever every connection to the occult, to ungodly influences in media, and to the spirits that have sought to mimic or distort Your voice. Fill him with the Holy Spirit, that he may discern Your voice clearly and walk in the freedom You have purchased for him.
We pray for his grandma, that You would protect her mind and spirit from any ungodly influence. If there has been any demonic oppression or possession, we command it to leave now in Jesus’ name. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, we also address the anger and bitterness in his heart toward others—toward the ‘geeks,’ toward those he feels have betrayed him. We know that unforgiveness is a snare that gives the enemy a foothold (Ephesians 4:26-27). Help him to release these burdens to You, Lord, and to bless those who have wronged him, as You have commanded (Matthew 5:44). Replace his anger with Your love and his fear with Your courage.
As for his request about ‘accomplishing murder in the future,’ we must speak the truth in love: this is not of God. The Bible says, *"You shall not murder"* (Exodus 20:13) and *"Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave room for the wrath of God; for it is written, ‘Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord’*’ (Romans 12:19). If you are feeling such dark thoughts, they are not from the Lord but from the enemy, who seeks to destroy you. We pray that God would deliver you from these thoughts and fill you with His peace and righteousness instead.
Finally, we pray for his physical and mental health. Lord, give him the discipline to care for his body as Your temple (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Help him to break free from any dependence on substances like Adderall that may be clouding his mind or opening doors to the enemy. Guide him toward healthy habits, godly community, and a renewed mind in Your Word.
We thank You, Lord, for Your promise that *"if we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9). We claim that promise now and ask that You would fill this brother with Your Holy Spirit, that he may walk in victory, in purity, and in the fullness of Your love. Protect him from further attacks, Lord, and let him dwell in the secret place of the Most High, under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91:1).
In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen."

Now, let us speak to you directly with encouragement and biblical truth. You have taken a critical step by bringing these struggles into the light and crying out to Jesus. That is where victory begins. The enemy thrives in secrecy and shame, but when we confess our sins and expose the works of darkness, they lose their power. *"Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them"* (Ephesians 5:11).
We urge you to take practical steps toward freedom:
1. **Renounce and Repent**: Verbally renounce any involvement with sinful behaviors, substances, or media that have opened doors to the enemy. This includes games, drugs, or any other influence that has led you into darkness. Repentance means turning away from these things and turning toward God.
2. **Fill Your Mind with Scripture**: The Word of God is a sword that cuts through the lies of the enemy. Memorize and meditate on verses like Psalm 23, Psalm 91, and Philippians 4:8, which tell us to focus on whatever is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, and commendable.
3. **Seek Godly Community**: Isolation is dangerous. Find a Bible-believing church where you can be discipled, held accountable, and surrounded by brothers and sisters in Christ who can pray with you and for you.
4. **Guard Your Eyes and Ears**: Lust and ungodly influences often enter through what we see and hear. Be intentional about avoiding media, games, or conversations that feed impurity or violence. *"I made a covenant with my eyes. How then could I look at a virgin?"* (Job 31:1).
5. **Forgive and Release Bitterness**: Holding onto anger or cursing others will only harm you. Ask God to help you forgive those who have wronged you, even if they don’t deserve it. Remember, Christ forgave you when you didn’t deserve it.
6. **Walk in the Spirit**: *"Walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh"* (Galatians 5:16). Spend time in prayer, worship, and the Word daily. The more you draw near to God, the more the enemy will flee.
You mentioned feeling like your words or actions in the past are being used against you spiritually. This is a common tactic of the enemy—to accuse and magnify guilt. But the Bible says, *"Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us"* (Romans 8:33-34). In Christ, you are forgiven, redeemed, and set free. Do not let the enemy convince you otherwise.
As for the strange thoughts about "quintessential" or "clean your room," these may be distractions or obsessions the enemy is using to confuse you. *"Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ"* (2 Corinthians 10:5). Take every thought captive and submit it to Christ. If a thought does not align with Scripture, reject it in Jesus’ name.
Lastly, we want to address your mention of Jesus’ name. You did invoke the name of Jesus in your prayer, and that is powerful. There is no other name under heaven by which we are saved (Acts 4:12). Keep calling on Him, for *"whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved"* (Romans 10:13). But we also want to ensure you understand the gospel clearly: salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ alone. If you have not already, surrender your life fully to Him, trusting in His death and resurrection for your forgiveness and eternal life. *"If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved"* (Romans 10:9).
You are not alone in this fight. We are standing with you in prayer, and the Lord is fighting for you. *"Don’t be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you," says the Lord'* (Jeremiah 1:8). Keep seeking Him, and He will lead you into freedom and peace.
