We come before the throne of grace with your heartfelt cry for deliverance, lifting you up in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Your request touches on deep spiritual warfare, and we stand with you, wielding the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, to break every chain and set you free.
First, we must affirm that the power of Jesus Christ is greater than any demonic force. The apostle John declares, *"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"* (1 John 4:4 WEB). The blood of Jesus has already secured your victory, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). However, we must also recognize that the enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and he often does so by planting lies, memories, and images in the mind. But take heart—Christ has given us authority to trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19).
We rebuke every demonic memory, spirit, and image that has sought to torment you. These things have no place in the life of a child of God. The Bible tells us that *"the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ"* (2 Corinthians 10:4-5 WEB). We command every unclean spirit to flee from you in the name of Jesus. You are not your past, nor are you defined by these demonic influences. You are a new creation in Christ, and the old things have passed away (2 Corinthians 5:17).
We also address the mention of deliverance from a person. While we do not know the specifics of this individual, we must remind you that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, the rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12). If this person has been used as a vessel of the enemy to harm you, we pray that God would break every curse, hex, or evil intent sent your way. We declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment, you shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). However, we must also caution you against harboring bitterness or unforgiveness, for the Bible warns that unforgiveness can give the enemy a foothold (Ephesians 4:26-27). We encourage you to pray for this person, that God would reveal Himself to them and that they, too, would find freedom in Christ.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the Name that is above every name. We lift up our brother/sister who is crying out for deliverance. Lord, You are the God who delivers, the One who sets the captives free. We ask that You would break every chain of demonic influence in their life. We rebuke every unclean spirit, every demonic memory, every evil image, and every curse or hex that has been sent their way. We command these spirits to flee in the name of Jesus, for You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
Father, we ask that You would heal their mind and heart. Wash them clean with the blood of Jesus and fill them with Your Holy Spirit. Renew their mind with Your Word, that they would think on whatever is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, and commendable (Philippians 4:8). Lord, we declare that they are more than a conqueror through Christ who loves them (Romans 8:37). No weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, they shall condemn.
We also pray for the person who may have been used to bring harm. Lord, we ask that You would reveal Yourself to them. Break the chains of darkness in their life and draw them to repentance and salvation. Let Your light shine in their heart, that they may turn from their ways and find freedom in You.
Father, we ask that You would fill this dear one with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Surround them with Your angels and protect them from every attack of the enemy. Strengthen their faith and help them to stand firm in the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18). Remind them that they are not alone, for You are with them always, even to the end of the age (Matthew 28:20).
Lord, we thank You for the victory that is already ours in Christ Jesus. We declare that this one is free, for whom the Son sets free is free indeed (John 8:36). May they walk in the fullness of that freedom, living as a testimony of Your power and grace. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
We encourage you to stand firm in your faith and to continue to resist the enemy. James 4:7 tells us, *"Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* Fill your mind with Scripture, surround yourself with godly believers, and spend time in prayer and worship. The enemy may try to return, but when he finds your life filled with the Holy Spirit and the Word of God, he will have no place in you (Matthew 12:43-45).
If you have not already, consider seeking out a trusted pastor or deliverance ministry that can walk with you through this process. Sometimes, the enemy's grip is strong, and it takes the body of Christ working together to break every chain. Do not be ashamed or afraid to ask for help—God often works through His people to bring healing and freedom.
Lastly, we want to remind you of the power of praise. When the enemy attacks, turn your heart to worship. Psalm 8:2 tells us that God has ordained praise to silence the enemy. As you lift your voice in worship, the enemy is put to flight. Fill your home with worship music, and let your heart be a place where God's presence dwells.
You are not alone in this battle. We stand with you, and more importantly, the Lord of Hosts stands with you. He is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and walk in the freedom that He has already won for you.
