We join with you in lifting up this powerful prayer of deliverance, standing firmly on the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has overcome the world and every dark power that seeks to harm His people. Your heart for justice, protection, and restoration aligns with the heart of God, and we stand with you in declaring the victory that is already won through Christ’s finished work on the cross. It is clear you are well-versed in spiritual warfare, and we commend you for taking your stand on the Word of God. There is power in the name of Jesus, and it is by His name alone that we have authority to bind the enemy and declare freedom for the captives.
The Scriptures you have chosen are mighty weapons in this battle, and we affirm them with you. The Lord declares in **2 Timothy 4:18**, *“The Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.”* This is His promise—not just to you, but to all who call upon His name. The enemy may scheme, but his plans will not prevail against those who are covered by the blood of Jesus. As you have rightly declared from **Luke 8:17**, *“For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed; nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.”* The Lord sees all things, and what has been done in darkness will be exposed by His light. We pray that every hidden work of evil—especially the horrific crime of trafficking, which is an abomination in His sight—will be brought into the light, that justice may be served and the oppressed set free.
You have also stood on **Colossians 2:15**, which proclaims that Christ *“stripped the principalities and the powers, and made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in the cross.”* This is the foundation of our victory! The enemy has no authority over those who are in Christ Jesus. Any witchcraft, divination, or curses sent against you or others are powerless before the name of Jesus. As you have prayed from **Matthew 18:18**, we bind every counterfeit spirit at work through those who seek to harm God’s people. The blood of Jesus, as declared in **Revelation 12:11**, has already disarmed every evil scheme of the enemy. *“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 our testimony too—we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.
We also declare with you the promise of **Isaiah 61:7**, that instead of shame, God’s people will receive double honor, and instead of dishonor, they will rejoice in their inheritance. The Lord is your restorer, and what the enemy meant for harm, God will turn for your good and His glory. The shield of protection you have claimed from **Isaiah 54:17** is unbreakable: *“No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,” says Yahweh.*
Now, we want to take a moment to address something important. In your prayer, you have rightly invoked the name of Jesus, and this is powerful and necessary. There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved or through which we can approach the Father. As **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!”* It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father, and it is His name that carries the authority to break every chain. We encourage you to always approach the throne of God boldly, but *only* in the name of Jesus, for He is the way, the truth, and the life—no one comes to the Father except through Him (**John 14:6**).
We also want to remind you that while we are called to engage in spiritual warfare, we must never allow fear or fixation on the enemy to overshadow our focus on Christ. Our victory is not found in our own strength or even in our knowledge of the enemy’s schemes, but in our abiding in Jesus. **1 John 4:4** assures us, *“You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.”* Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (**Hebrews 12:2**), and trust that He is fighting for you even now.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You are a God of justice, deliverance, and restoration. Lord, we lift up our brother/sister who has boldly stood against the works of darkness, and we ask that You would surround them with Your divine protection. Let every spell, hex, curse, or assignment of the enemy be broken and rendered powerless by the blood of Jesus. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn.
Lord, we pray for the exposure of every hidden work of darkness, especially the evil of trafficking and exploitation. Let Your light shine into every dark place, Lord, and bring these deeds to light. We ask that You would dismantle every network of evil and bring those who perpetrate such crimes to justice. Protect the innocent, Lord, and let Your hand of deliverance be upon them.
We bind every counterfeit spirit, every demonic assignment, and every work of witchcraft in the name of Jesus. We declare that the enemy has no authority over Your children, for Christ has already triumphed over him at the cross. Let every cycle of oppression be broken, and let Your restoration flow into the lives of those who have been harmed.
Father, we ask that You would place a hedge of protection around our brother/sister and all those they are praying for. Let Your angels encamp around them, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and let them walk in the confidence of Your victory.
We also pray that You would keep their focus steadfast on You, Jesus. Let them not be distracted by the enemy’s schemes but let them rest in the knowledge that You are their defender, their shield, and their exceeding great reward. Remind them daily that the battle belongs to You, and that You have already won the war.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would continue to fill them with Your Word, that they may stand firm in the faith, equipped with the whole armor of God. Let them be a light in the darkness, a voice of truth in a world that so desperately needs You.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Stand firm in the faith, dear one. The Lord is with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (**Deuteronomy 31:6**). Keep praying, keep declaring the Word of God, and trust that He is working all things together for your good and His glory (**Romans 8:28**). If you ever feel overwhelmed, remember that you are not alone—we are standing with you in prayer, and more importantly, the Lord Himself is your ever-present help in trouble (**Psalm 46:1**). Be encouraged, and keep your eyes on Jesus!
