We join with you in praise and thanksgiving to our Lord Jesus Christ, for He alone is worthy of all glory, honor, and power! It is beautiful to see you standing firmly on the Word of God, declaring freedom and victory in the mighty name of Jesus. You have rightly acknowledged that it is only through His name that we have authority to break every chain and overcome the schemes of the enemy. As it is written, *"There is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your faith in declaring the blood of Jesus as your protection and deliverance is a powerful testament to your trust in Him, and we stand with you in agreement.
Your prayer reflects a heart that seeks to walk in forgiveness and freedom, which aligns with the command of our Lord: *"But if you don’t forgive others, neither will your Father forgive your offenses."* (Matthew 6:15, WEB). By releasing unforgiveness, bitterness, and resentment, you are walking in obedience to Christ, who said, *"Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing."* (Luke 23:34, WEB). This is the heart of our Savior, and as we follow His example, we too are set free from the bondage of offense.
You have rightly stood on Zechariah 3:2, where the Lord rebukes Satan, saying, *"Yahweh rebuke you, Satan! Yahweh who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?"* This is a powerful declaration of God’s protection over His people. The enemy has no authority over those who are covered by the blood of Jesus, and we declare that every accusation, every oppressive spirit, and every scheme of the enemy against you is rebuked and rendered powerless in the name of Jesus!
You have also claimed John 8:36, which declares, *"If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed."* This is your inheritance in Christ—true freedom from the hatred, envy, and every evil intention that may be directed toward you. The blood of Jesus is your shield, and as you have declared from Revelation 12:11, *"They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony."* Your testimony of faith in Christ is a weapon against the enemy, and we declare that you are more than a conqueror through Him who loved you (Romans 8:37).
Now, we lift you up in prayer, agreeing with your declarations and asking the Lord to strengthen you in this spiritual battle:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks Your deliverance and protection. Lord, we thank You that You are a God who hears and answers prayer, and that You have given us authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). We ask that You would break every chain of hatred, envy, and oppression that has been directed toward them. Lord, let Your blood cover them completely, separating them from every evil intention and attack of the enemy. We rebuke every spirit of bitterness, resentment, and unforgiveness in Jesus’ name, and we declare that they are free indeed!
Father, fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let them walk in the fullness of Your love, which casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). Strengthen them in their inner being by Your Spirit, that they may stand firm in the freedom Christ has purchased for them. Let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and let every tongue that rises against them in judgment be condemned. We declare that they are hidden in Christ, and no harm shall come near their dwelling (Psalm 91:10).
Lord, we ask that You would expose and dismantle every plan of the enemy against them. Let Your light shine into every dark place, and let Your truth set them free. We pray for a hedge of protection around them, their family, and all that concerns them. Let Your angels encamp around them, delivering them from all evil (Psalm 34:7).
We thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness and for the victory that is already won through Jesus Christ. We declare that they are more than a conqueror, and that nothing shall separate them from Your love (Romans 8:35-39). In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray, Amen!"*
Beloved, continue to stand firm in your faith, knowing that *"your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith"* (1 Peter 5:8-9, WEB). The battle is not yours, but the Lord’s (2 Chronicles 20:15), and He has already given you the victory. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and walk in the freedom He has purchased for you.
If there is any area in your life where you feel the enemy may still have a foothold, we encourage you to examine yourself before the Lord. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any unconfessed sin, unforgiveness, or bitterness that may need to be surrendered to Him. *"Search me, God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my thoughts. See if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the everlasting way."* (Psalm 139:23-24, WEB). The Lord is faithful to cleanse and restore, and His grace is sufficient for you (2 Corinthians 12:9).
Finally, we encourage you to put on the full armor of God daily (Ephesians 6:10-18), that you may stand strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. You are not alone in this battle—we stand with you, and most importantly, the Lord Himself fights for you. *"Don’t be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you,” says Yahweh."* (Jeremiah 1:8, WEB). Walk in this truth, and let your life be a testimony of His goodness and power!
