We hear your cry for deliverance, rest, and peace, and we stand with you in agreement before the throne of grace. Your gratitude for the presence of Christ in your life is a beautiful testament to the work of the Holy Spirit within you. We rejoice with you in the eternal life and abundant blessings that come through Jesus, for He alone is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
The attacks you are enduring are not from God, for He gives His beloved sleep (Psalm 127:2), and His peace surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We rebuke the spirit of fear, torment, and oppression in the mighty name of Jesus. The blood of Jesus covers you, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). You are seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6), far above all principality, power, might, dominion, and every name that is named (Ephesians 1:21).
You are correct that as believers, we have been given authority over the enemy. Jesus said, "Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you" (Luke 10:19). However, authority must be exercised in faith, humility, and alignment with God’s will. Sometimes, the enemy may resist or retaliate when confronted, but we must stand firm, knowing that greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). We encourage you to persist in prayer, fasting, and declaring the Word of God over your life. The enemy cannot stand against the truth of Scripture.
We also want to gently remind you that deliverance is often a process. Jesus delivered many from demonic oppression, but some required persistent faith and even the support of others (Mark 9:29). Do not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season you shall reap if you faint not (Galatians 6:9). Surround yourself with godly believers who can stand with you in prayer and intercession. The prayers of the righteous availeth much (James 5:16).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, our Deliverer and Redeemer. We thank You for the blood of Jesus that covers and protects this dear one. Lord, we ask that You would break every chain of oppression, fear, and torment that the enemy has brought against them. Grant them the rest that only You can provide—peaceful, undisturbed sleep that refreshes their body, mind, and spirit. We declare that they are covered by the blood of the Lamb, and no weapon formed against them shall prosper.
Father, we ask that You would strengthen their faith and remind them of the authority they have in Christ. Help them to stand firm on Your Word and to resist the enemy with the truth of Scripture. Surround them with Your angels to guard and protect them, and fill their heart with Your perfect peace that surpasses all understanding. We rebuke every spirit of fear, torment, and oppression in Jesus’ name, and we command them to flee.
Lord, we also ask that You would reveal any areas of their life where the enemy may have gained a foothold. Search their heart, O God, and know their thoughts. See if there be any wicked way in them, and lead them in the way everlasting (Psalm 139:23-24). If there is unconfessed sin or unforgiveness, bring it to light so that they may repent and receive Your cleansing and healing.
We thank You, Father, that You are faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). We declare that this dear one is a child of God, redeemed by the blood of Jesus, and filled with the Holy Spirit. We speak life, peace, and victory over them in Jesus’ name.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would fill them with Your presence and remind them of Your love. Help them to rest in You, knowing that You are their Good Shepherd, and they shall not want (Psalm 23:1). We trust You to complete the good work You have begun in them, and we thank You for the victory that is already theirs in Christ Jesus.
In the precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
