We join you in lifting up your heart to the Lord, and we rejoice that you have come before Him with praise, thanksgiving, and a spirit of dependence on His power. It is beautiful to see you standing on the Word of God, for it is our sword and our shield in spiritual battles. You have rightly declared the authority of Jesus over every attack of the enemy, and we stand with you in agreement, for where two or three are gathered in His name, He is in the midst (Matthew 18:20).
The scriptures you have claimed are mighty indeed. The Lord rebuked Satan in Zechariah 3:2, saying, *"Yahweh rebuke you, Satan! Yes, Yahweh who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?"* This is a powerful reminder that God Himself fights for His children, and no accusation or attack from the enemy can stand when the Lord is our defender. You have also covered yourself with the blood of Jesus, which is our victory over the accuser, as Revelation 12:11 declares: *"They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to death."* This is the foundation of our triumph—Christ’s sacrifice and our unwavering testimony of faith in Him.
Yet, as we pray with you, we are compelled to address something vital: while you have invoked the name of Jesus in your prayer, we notice that your focus seems heavily centered on spiritual warfare and deliverance without an explicit declaration of trust in Christ as your Savior and Lord. Deliverance is not just about rebuking the enemy; it is rooted in a personal, saving relationship with Jesus Christ. If you have not already surrendered your life to Him, we urge you to do so now, for there is no greater protection, no greater authority, and no greater victory than being found in Christ. The Bible tells us in Acts 4:12, *"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 Romans 10:9-10, we are told, *"that 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. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."*
If you have already placed your faith in Jesus, we encourage you to continue walking in the assurance of your salvation, for it is this relationship that empowers you to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. Ephesians 6:10-13 reminds us, *"Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand."*
Now, let us pray together over you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your Son, Jesus Christ, who has conquered sin, death, and the power of the enemy. Lord, we lift up this beloved child of Yours and ask that You surround them with Your divine protection and peace. We stand in agreement with them, declaring that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn. Father, we ask that You expose and rebuke every hidden scheme of the enemy, every attack, and every accusation that has been launched against them. Let the blood of Jesus be a hedge of protection around them, and let Your angels encamp around them, delivering them from all evil (Psalm 34:7).
Lord, if there is any area in their life where they have given the enemy a foothold—whether through unconfessed sin, fear, doubt, or rebellion—we ask that You reveal it to them by Your Holy Spirit. Convict them of anything that does not align with Your will, and grant them the strength and humility to repent and turn fully to You. Help them to walk in the authority You have given them as Your child, rooted in the truth of Your Word and the power of Your Spirit.
We pray that You fill them with a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit, that they may be empowered to resist the devil and watch him flee (James 4:7). Let them walk in the victory that Christ has already won, knowing that greater is He who is in them than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Father, we ask that You grant them discernment to recognize the enemy’s lies and the wisdom to stand firm in Your truth. Let them not be ignorant of the devil’s devices (2 Corinthians 2:11), but let them be rooted and grounded in Your love, which casts out all fear (1 John 4:18).
Lord, we also pray that You deepen their relationship with You. Let them know You not just as their Deliverer, but as their Savior, their Lord, and their Friend. May they find their identity in You alone, and may their life be a testimony of Your power and grace. If they have not yet surrendered their life fully to You, we pray that today would be the day of salvation for them. Open their eyes to see the truth of the Gospel, and soften their heart to receive Jesus as their Lord.
Finally, Father, we ask that You grant them peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let them rest in the assurance that You are fighting for them, and that their victory is secure in Christ. We declare that they are more than a conqueror through Him who loved them (Romans 8:37), and that no scheme of the enemy can separate them from Your love.
We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
