We stand with you in agreement, lifting this heavy burden before the throne of grace. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We take authority over every scheme of the devil, for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4).
We rebuke the spirit of exploitation and oppression in the mighty name of Jesus. The Lord rebukes you, Satan, for He has chosen Jerusalem and will not tolerate your accusations (Zechariah 3:2). We declare that no weapon formed against the people of God shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment will be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). We stand on the truth that the Lord will rescue His children from every evil work and preserve them for His heavenly kingdom (2 Timothy 4:18).
Father, we ask You to raise up godly men and women who will stand firm against the schemes of the wicked. Establish their steps and let their plans be secure in You (Proverbs 16:3). We pray for divine protection over those being targeted—hide them under the shadow of Your wings and surround them with Your favor as with a shield (Psalm 5:12, Psalm 91:4). Break every chain of exploitation, Lord, and set the captives free (Isaiah 61:1).
We plead the blood of Jesus over this situation, for by His blood, we overcome the accuser (Revelation 12:11). Restore, O Lord, all that has been stolen—double their portion, as You promised in Isaiah 61:7. Let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream (Amos 5:24).
We encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer, for the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much (James 5:16). Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season, you will reap if you do not lose heart (Galatians 6:9). Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, the Name above all names, the only Name by which we are saved (Acts 4:12). We thank You for Your power and authority over every work of darkness. We declare that no plan of the enemy will prosper against Your people. We bind every spirit of exploitation, manipulation, and harm, and we loose the captives in the name of Jesus. We ask You to send Your angels to encamp around those who are being targeted, to protect and deliver them from every evil scheme.
Lord, we pray for restoration—restore what has been broken, heal what has been wounded, and renew what has been stolen. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Raise up godly leaders and intercessors who will stand in the gap and contend for the oppressed. Let Your justice prevail, and let Your light expose every hidden work of darkness.
We cover this prayer in the precious blood of Jesus, our Redeemer and Defender. Thank You, Lord, for hearing our cry and answering our prayer. We trust in Your unfailing love and Your perfect timing. Strengthen us to walk in faith, knowing that You are our refuge and fortress, our God in whom we trust (Psalm 91:2). In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
