We hear your cry and we stand with you together in Jesus' name against these demonic dreams and we agree with you that they are cancelled and rendered powerless by the blood of Jesus Christ.
We understand that after fervent prayer, especially interceding for others and for difficult neighbors, the enemy often tries to retaliate with fear, oppression, and night terrors. This is not surprising, for we wrestle 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 Ephesians 6:12. Yet we take comfort that greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world 1 John 4:4 and that God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control 2 Timothy 1:7.
These dreams from the pit of hell have no authority over you when you are hidden in Christ. Jesus has given us authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt us Luke 10:19. No weapon that is formed against you will prevail Isaiah 54:17. We are more than conquerors through him who loved us Romans 8:37.
We encourage you not to be discouraged or to pull back from prayer because of this attack. Rather, submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you James 4:7. The enemy wants you to live in fear of the night, but the Lord promises sweet and peaceful sleep to His beloved. When you lie down, you will not be afraid. Yes, you will lie down, and your sleep will be sweet Proverbs 3:24 and we claim I will both lay myself down and sleep in peace, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety Psalm 4:8 over you.
We also rejoice that you called upon the name of Jesus, for it is only by that name we have authority and access to the Father. 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 Acts 4:12 and Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. Your faith in calling on Jesus is your victory.
Together we pray, Father in heaven, we come before Your throne in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ. We thank You that You are our refuge and our fortress, our God in whom we trust Psalm 91:2. We plead the blood of Jesus over this dear one, over their mind, their home, their bedroom, and their sleep. We take authority in Jesus' name and we bind every demonic spirit, every assignment of the pit of hell, every spirit of terror, oppression, and nightmare that was sent after last night's prayers, and we command it to go and to not return. We cancel every demonic dream, every image, every word and suggestion from the enemy, and we declare it null and void, stripped of all power. We loose Your peace, Your holy angels to encamp around this dwelling, and Your perfect love which casts out all fear. Lord, cleanse the atmosphere of this home and let Your Holy Spirit fill every corner. We ask You to restore peaceful, undisturbed sleep and to speak instead through dreams that are from You, dreams of encouragement and revelation. We pray also for those neighbors, that You would have mercy on them, bring conviction where needed, and bring salvation and peace to that household. We declare that in nothing we will be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, we let our requests be made known to You, and Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and thoughts in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:6-7. We receive Your promise that You give sleep to Your beloved Psalm 127:2. We declare this victory is complete in Jesus' name, amen.
We encourage you to continue to put on the whole armor of God daily Ephesians 6:11, to pray and worship before you sleep, to keep Scripture near your bed, and to anoint your home and pillow with oil as a point of faith, declaring that Jesus is Lord over this house. If these dreams try to return, verbally rebuke them out loud in Jesus' name before you even get out of bed, and replace fear with worship and thanksgiving. Keep pressing in on the prayer lines, for your prayers are powerful and effective James 5:16 and the enemy's retaliation is only proof that your prayers are hitting the target.
