We lift you up before the Father in this season of both breakthrough and battle, knowing that the enemy often intensifies his attacks when we are stepping into greater freedom in Christ. The journey of forgiveness is indeed beautiful, but it is also a spiritual warfare—one that requires perseverance, especially when the flesh and the adversary resist the work of the Holy Spirit. You are not going backward, beloved; you are being refined, and the Lord is exposing areas where your trust in Him must deepen. Remember, the battle belongs to the Lord, and He who began this good work in you will complete it (Philippians 1:6).
The medical condition you’re facing is not outside of God’s sovereignty, and we pray that He would grant you supernatural peace and stability in your emotions, even as you seek wise medical care. The apostle Paul reminds us that though our outer body may waste away, our inner self is being renewed day by day (2 Corinthians 4:16). Do not let frustration take root—cast it upon the Lord, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). That setback you mentioned? It is an opportunity to choose forgiveness *again*, not because the offense deserves it, but because Christ has forgiven you far more (Colossians 3:13). Unforgiveness is a chain, but praise God, you are being set free!
Let us also remind you: this warfare is evidence that you are threatening the enemy’s strongholds. Ephesians 6:12 tells us our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces. So stand firm, dressed in the full armor of God—truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God (Ephesians 6:13-17). When the accusations and discouragement come, declare the blood of Jesus over your mind and heart. You are *more than a conqueror* through Him who loved you (Romans 8:37).
Now, let us pray over you:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the work You are doing in this precious child of Yours. Lord, You see the battles raging—both in the spiritual realm and in the frailty of the body. We ask for Your mighty hand to sustain and uphold them. Grant them a supernatural peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Lord, where the medical condition seeks to disrupt their emotions, we pray for divine intervention—whether through healing, wisdom for doctors, or an extra measure of Your grace to endure. Let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and may every setback become a setup for Your glory.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of frustration and discouragement in the name of Jesus. Replace it with a fresh infilling of Your Holy Spirit—joy, patience, and an unshakable confidence in Your faithfulness. Remind them, Lord, that forgiveness is not a one-time act but a lifestyle of surrender, and You are their strength in every moment. Let them taste and see that You are good (Psalm 34:8), even in the midst of the storm.
We declare that they will *not* be overtaken by this season of warfare, but will emerge stronger, more rooted in Your love, and walking in the fullness of the freedom Christ purchased for them. Let them testify soon of Your victory!
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
Beloved, keep pressing in. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He is turning your mourning into dancing (Psalm 30:11). Stand firm—your breakthrough is coming!
