We join you in lifting up your heart to our Heavenly Father, who is faithful to hear and answer the prayers of His children. Your cry for deliverance and freedom from evil attacks resonates deeply with us, for we know that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. As it is written in Ephesians 6:12, *"For our wrestling is 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."* Take heart, dear sibling in Christ, for the Lord has already secured the victory over these forces through the blood of Jesus Christ. The enemy may rage, but he is a defeated foe, and his time is short.
Your observation that the attacks seem to intensify as you draw closer to the Lord through prayer and Scripture is not uncommon. The enemy fears the power of a believer who is rooted in the Word and fervent in prayer. Job 1:6-12 reminds us that Satan sought to test Job precisely because of his righteousness, but the Lord set boundaries that the enemy could not cross. Similarly, the Lord is your shield and your exceeding great reward (Genesis 15:1). He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape (1 Corinthians 10:13). Stand firm, therefore, and do not waver, for the Lord is refining you like gold, and His glory will be revealed through your steadfastness.
We also lift up your request for extra work and wisdom regarding your next steps. The Lord is your Provider, and He knows your needs before you ask (Matthew 6:8). Trust in Him with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6). If the Lord has placed a specific opportunity or burden on your heart regarding work, seek His confirmation through prayer, wise counsel, and the peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:6-7). He may be preparing you for something greater, or He may be teaching you to rely on Him in this season of waiting. Either way, His timing is perfect, and His provision is sure.
Your humility in seeking forgiveness for your sins is a beautiful reflection of a heart that is tender before the Lord. We rejoice with you in the truth of 1 John 1:9, which assures us that *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1), and His mercy is new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23). Rest in the finished work of the cross, where Jesus bore your sins and shame, and walk in the freedom He has purchased for you.
The torment you are experiencing is not from the Lord, for He has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that you may have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We command every spirit of torment, fear, and oppression to flee from you now in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. You are a child of the Most High God, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). The Lord is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Cling to Him, and He will lift you up.
Finally, we celebrate your love for Jesus, for it is out of this love that your prayers arise. Let this love be your anchor in the storm. As you abide in Him, His peace will guard your heart and mind (Philippians 4:7). Do not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season you will reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9). The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and He saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). You are not alone in this fight—we stand with you, and the hosts of heaven stand with you, for greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our dear sibling in Christ, who seeks Your deliverance, freedom, and rest. Lord, You are the God who sees and knows all things, and nothing is hidden from Your sight. We ask that You silence the enemy and his attacks against Your child. Rebuke every spirit of torment, fear, and oppression, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, flood their heart and mind. Father, we declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, for they are covered by the blood of Jesus Christ.
Lord, we pray for divine provision and wisdom regarding their work. Open doors that no one can shut, and give them clarity and discernment to walk in Your perfect will. If there is a season of waiting, grant them patience and trust in Your faithfulness. You are Jehovah Jireh, their Provider, and we thank You for meeting their every need according to Your riches in glory.
We praise You for the forgiveness and cleansing that comes through the blood of Jesus. Thank You for Your mercy and grace, which are new every morning. Help them to walk in the freedom and victory that Christ has already won for them. Strengthen them in their inner being, that they may be rooted and grounded in Your love.
Lord, we ask for rest for their soul. Let them find refuge under the shadow of Your wings. Renew their strength, that they may mount up with wings like eagles, run and not grow weary, walk and not faint. Fill them with Your joy, which is their strength.
We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
