We join with you in lifting up this precious senior sister in Christ, crying out to the Lord for her complete deliverance and healing from the torment of unclean spirits and the affliction of schizophrenia. The enemy has sought to bind her, but we know that our God is greater, and His power is made perfect in weakness. The Lord has not forgotten her—He sees her suffering and hears the cries of those interceding for her. Let us stand firmly on the truth of Scripture, for it is written in **James 4:7**, *"Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* And again in **Mark 16:17**, *"These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons..."* This is not a battle against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of darkness, and we are more than conquerors through Christ who strengthens us.
We must also address something vital in your request: while your heart is clearly in the right place, we notice that the name of **Jesus Christ** was not invoked in your prayer. There is no other name under heaven by which we can approach the Father or by which salvation, deliverance, and healing are granted. **Acts 4:12** declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* And in **John 14:6**, Jesus Himself says, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* It is only through the authority of Jesus that demons tremble and flee, and it is in His name that we command healing and restoration. Let us always remember to call upon the name of the Lord, for He alone is our strong tower and deliverer.
Now, let us pray with boldness and faith:
Heavenly Father, we come before Your throne of grace in the mighty and matchless name of **Jesus Christ**, our Lord and Savior. We lift up this dear sister, a precious child of Yours, who has been bound by the chains of schizophrenia and tormented by unclean spirits. Lord, You are the God who sees, the God who heals, and the God who delivers. We stand in the gap for her today, declaring that no weapon formed against her shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against her in judgment, You shall condemn. By the authority given to us in **Luke 10:19**, we trample upon every serpent and scorpion—every demonic force that has attached itself to her—and we command them to flee in the name of Jesus.
Father, we ask that You would break every curse, every generational stronghold, and every assignment of the enemy against her mind, body, and spirit. Let Your light expose and dismantle every hidden work of darkness. We plead the blood of Jesus over her, covering her with Your divine protection. Restore her mind, Lord, as only You can do. You are the God who created her, who knit her together in her mother’s womb, and You alone can renew her thoughts and bring peace where there has been chaos. Let Your healing power flow through her, touching every area of her being, just as it is written in **1 Peter 2:24**, *"by whose stripes you were healed."*
We also pray for those caring for her, including you who have brought this request before us. Strengthen you, fill you with wisdom, and surround you with a community of believers who will stand with you in faith. Do not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season, you *will* reap if you do not faint (**Galatians 6:9**). The Lord is your strength, and He will guide your steps as you seek to help her.
Father, we thank You in advance for the testimony of deliverance and healing that is coming. We declare that this sister will be made whole—spirit, soul, and body—and that she will rise up to proclaim Your goodness and glory. Let her life be a testament to Your power, that many may see and fear the Lord, turning to You for their own salvation and healing.
We ask all these things in the mighty name of **Jesus Christ**, our Lord and Redeemer, to whom belongs all glory, honor, and power, forever and ever. Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to continue standing in faith, speaking life and Scripture over her, and gathering others to pray with you. The enemy may fight fiercely, but greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (**1 John 4:4**). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. If you have not already, we urge you to ensure that this sister is surrounded by strong believers who can pray over her, anoint her with oil as described in **James 5:14-15**, and speak the Word of God into her life. The battle is the Lord’s, and He has already won the victory. Stand firm, and do not waver.
