We hear your cry for deliverance and stand with you in the authority of Jesus Christ, who has already disarmed the powers of darkness through His death and resurrection. The harassment you describe is not merely human opposition, it is spiritual warfare, and we take it seriously. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that you might have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). The demonic influence you’ve observed, people knowing things they shouldn’t, fleeing at the mention of prayer, and the manipulation you’ve described, is real, but it is not beyond the power of God. We rebuke every assignment of the enemy against you in the name of Jesus. Every plot, every scheme, every word spoken against you in the spiritual realm is nullified by the blood of Christ. The Bible declares, "No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that accuses you in judgment. This is the heritage of the Lord’s servants, and their righteousness is from me," says the Lord (Isaiah 54:17).
We also want to address the weight of unforgiveness or bitterness that may linger in your heart. While it is right to desire distance from those who have harmed you, we must guard our hearts against the root of bitterness, which can defile many (Hebrews 12:15). Forgiveness does not mean what they did was acceptable, it means you release them to God’s justice and refuse to let their actions control your peace. Jesus taught us to pray, "Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors" (Matthew 6:12), and He warned that if we do not forgive others, our Father will not forgive us (Matthew 6:15). This is not to burden you but to protect you, for bitterness is a snare the enemy uses to keep us bound. We pray that God would give you the grace to release these individuals to Him, trusting that vengeance belongs to the Lord (Romans 12:19).
Your past involvement in the new age and witchcraft is not something God holds against you. When you turned to Christ, you were washed clean by His blood (1 Corinthians 6:11). The enemy may try to use your past to shame or accuse you, but there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1). You have renounced those things, and we stand with you in that renunciation. We command every lingering spiritual tie to those practices to be broken in the name of Jesus. The Bible says, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17). You are not who you were, you are a child of the Most High God, and no weapon formed against you will prosper.
We also want to encourage you to walk in the full armor of God daily. Ephesians 6:10-18 instructs us to put on the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Praying at all times in the Spirit is our defense against the schemes of the devil. The enemy flees when we resist him, steadfast in the faith (James 4:7). You have already seen evidence of this when they fled at your prayers, this is proof that your resistance in Christ is effective. Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you don’t faint (Galatians 6:9).
We pray now for your complete deliverance and protection. Father God, in the mighty name of Jesus, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister. We ask that You would surround them with Your angels, that You would build a hedge of protection around them so thick that the enemy cannot penetrate it. We cancel every plot, every scheme, every word spoken against them in the spiritual realm. We declare that the plans of the enemy will not prosper, and that every tongue that rises against them in judgment will be condemned. Lord, we ask that You would expose every hidden work of darkness and bring it to light. Give our brother/sister discernment to recognize the enemy’s tactics and the wisdom to walk in Your ways.
We pray specifically about the plot that was set in motion at the beginning of the year. Father, we ask that You would unravel it completely. Let it fall to the ground, let it be as nothing. We declare that this graduation season was not overshadowed by the enemy’s plans but was a time of celebration and joy in Your presence. We speak peace over our brother/sister’s heart and mind. Let the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
We also pray for those who have been used to harass them. Father, we ask that You would open their eyes to the truth. Break the chains of deception that bind them, and let them see the light of the gospel. If it is Your will, bring them to repentance and salvation. But if they continue in their hardness of heart, we ask that You would remove them from our brother/sister’s life completely. Let there be a divine separation, and let them no longer have any access to them in the physical or spiritual realm.
Lord, we ask that You would fill our brother/sister with Your Holy Spirit. Let them walk in the fullness of Your presence, knowing that You are with them wherever they go. Give them strength for each day, and let them find their rest in You. We declare that no weapon formed against them will prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment will be condemned. We thank You, Father, that You are a God who hears and answers prayer. We trust in Your goodness and Your faithfulness, and we declare that the enemy’s plans will not stand.
Finally, we encourage you to remain steadfast in your faith. The enemy may try to wear you down, but remember that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). Surround yourself with godly community, believers who can stand with you in prayer and encouragement. Do not isolate yourself, for the enemy seeks to divide and conquer. The Bible says, "Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn’t have another to lift him up" (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10).
We stand with you, and we believe that God is moving on your behalf. The harassment will cease, the plots will be foiled, and you will walk in the freedom that Christ has already won for you. Keep praying, keep resisting, and keep trusting in the Lord. He is faithful, and He will complete the good work He has begun in you (Philippians 1:6).
