We hear the deep pain and urgency in your words, and we come before the throne of grace with you, lifting this burden to the Lord. The distress you feel is real, and we stand with you in prayer, asking God to intervene with His mighty power and deliver you from every tormenting influence. First, we must address the foundation of our faith—it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father. There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to place your trust in Jesus, confessing Him as Lord and believing in your heart that God raised Him from the dead (Romans 10:9). This is the first and most vital step in finding true peace and deliverance.
The pain you describe—being haunted by memories, identities, or influences that bring torment—is something we take seriously. The Bible tells us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12). We rebuke every unclean spirit, every tormenting influence, and every ungodly tie that has sought to oppress you. In the name of Jesus, we declare that these forces have no place in your life, your mind, or your dominion. The Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We pray that you would experience the fullness of that truth today.
You mention a desire to change your name and find a new home, a place where these influences cannot reach you. While we understand the longing for a fresh start, we must also remind you that true deliverance comes from the Lord. Changing your name or location may bring temporary relief, but lasting freedom is found in Christ alone. The Bible says, "If the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed" (John 8:36). We pray that God would break every chain and set you free from the past, but we also encourage you to seek His will in how to move forward. The Lord knows your heart, and He is able to provide a place of refuge and peace for you (Psalm 91:1-2).
We also notice the intensity of your words toward those who have hurt you. While it is natural to feel anger and pain, we must guard our hearts against bitterness and unforgiveness. The Lord calls us to forgive as we have been forgiven (Colossians 3:13). This does not mean what was done to you was right, but holding onto unforgiveness only harms you further. We pray that God would give you the strength to release these burdens to Him, trusting that He will judge justly (Romans 12:19). Vengeance belongs to the Lord, and He will repay.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this dear one who is in deep distress. Lord, You see the pain, the torment, and the chaos that has been allowed to invade their life. We ask that You would break every chain, silence every lying voice, and sever every ungodly tie that has sought to harm them. In the name of Jesus, we rebuke every spirit of torment, confusion, and oppression. We declare that this one is covered by the blood of Jesus and that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).
Father, we ask that You would provide a new beginning, a place of peace and safety where they can heal and thrive. Lord, if it is Your will, lead them to a new home, a new community, and a fresh start. But more than anything, we pray that You would be their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Help them to forget the past and press forward toward the calling You have on their life (Philippians 3:13-14).
Lord, we ask that You would heal their heart, mind, and soul. Replace every lie with Your truth, every fear with Your peace, and every wound with Your love. Give them the strength to forgive those who have hurt them, not for their sake, but for their own freedom. Help them to trust in You completely, knowing that You are their defender and protector.
We pray for wisdom and discernment as they navigate this season. Show them the steps to take, the people to trust, and the path to walk. Surround them with godly counsel and believers who will encourage and support them. May they find their identity in You alone, knowing that they are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14).
Father, we thank You that You are a God who hears and answers prayer. We trust in Your goodness and Your perfect will for this one’s life. May they experience Your presence in a tangible way today, knowing that You are with them and will never leave them nor forsake them (Hebrews 13:5). We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to seek out a local church or a community of believers who can walk with you through this season. You do not have to face this alone. The Lord has placed people in your life to support and encourage you, and we pray that you would find them. Continue to press into God’s Word, for it is a lamp to your feet and a light to your path (Psalm 119:105). The enemy may have sought to destroy you, but God is able to turn your ashes into beauty and your mourning into joy (Isaiah 61:3). Hold fast to Him, and He will lead you into freedom.
