We join with you in praying for deliverance for this precious one in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, and we stand in agreement that every evil spirit must bow to Him.
We know that spiritual warfare is real, 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 Ephesians 6:12. Whether called by the name Poseidon or any other name, we know there is no power greater than Jesus, and every principality and power is under His feet. He has given us authority over all the power of the enemy Luke 10:19, and greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world 1 John 4:4.
We also want to gently encourage you to keep your focus on Christ Himself rather than on the names or hierarchies of spirits. Scripture does not teach us to fear or to exalt the names of false gods or marine spirits, but to exalt Jesus alone, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. Our victory is not in knowing the names of demons, but in knowing the name of Jesus and abiding in Him. The weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds 2 Corinthians 10:4.
True and lasting deliverance comes not only by casting out but by filling up. Jesus warned that when an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and if he returns and finds the house empty, swept, and put in order, he brings seven other spirits more evil than himself Matthew 12:43-45. Therefore we pray not only for expulsion but for infilling with the Holy Spirit, the Word of God, and a life fully surrendered to Christ.
We pray together now.
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we come before Your throne of grace and we lift up this dear one to You. We thank You that You have delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of your love Colossians 1:13. In Jesus name we resist the devil and command every evil spirit, every marine spirit and every strongman that has oppressed this life to leave now and to go to where Jesus sends it, never to return. We plead the blood of Jesus over this life, over mind, body and spirit. We ask You to fill every place once occupied by darkness with Your Holy Spirit, with Your peace, with Your light and with Your truth. If the Son therefore will make you free, you will be free indeed John 8:36, and we claim that freedom now. We pray that You would surround this one with Your protection, teach them to be subject therefore to God, to resist the devil so he will flee from them James 4:7, and to put on the whole armor of God daily. Lead them into repentance where needed, into baptism and discipleship, into fellowship with a Bible believing church, into the daily reading of Your Word and into constant prayer, so that they may stand firm and walk in holiness and victory. Let Christ be enthroned in their heart as Lord and Savior.
We encourage you to continue to contend for this soul with fasting, prayer and the Word, and to help this person renounce any known involvement with idolatry, occult practices, sexual immorality or any open door to the enemy, and to confess and forsake sin, for if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness 1 John 1:9. Encourage them to confess Jesus as Lord with their mouth and believe in their heart that God raised Him from the dead Romans 10:9, for that is the foundation of all deliverance.
We thank You Father that You have heard our prayer, that You are faithful to deliver, and we trust You to complete the work You have begun. We ask all this in the victorious and matchless name of Jesus Christ our Lord and deliverer, amen.
