We join with you in giving thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ for the intermittent relief and reduced intensity of these attacks, for He alone is our strong tower and deliverer. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we may have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). Your testimony of partial victory is evidence that the power of Christ is at work in you, and we stand firmly on His promise that what He has begun, He will complete (Philippians 1:6).
The attacks you describe—on your mind and body—are not uncommon for those who are actively walking in faith and resisting the devil. Scripture reminds us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and the spiritual forces of wickedness in heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12). Yet we are also assured that *greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world* (1 John 4:4). The anxiety you feel about future attacks is understandable, but we must not allow fear to take root, for *God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and sound mind* (2 Timothy 1:7). Perfect love—God’s love—casts out all fear (1 John 4:18), and we must cling to this truth as we pray for your complete liberation.
It is critical that you remain steadfast in putting on the whole armor of God daily: 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 (Ephesians 6:10-18). The Word of God is your offensive weapon against the lies and accusations of the enemy. When demonic thoughts assail your mind, speak Scripture aloud—declare the truth of who you are in Christ: redeemed, forgiven, sealed by the Holy Spirit, and more than a conqueror through Him who loves you (Romans 8:37). Resist the devil, and he *will* flee from you (James 4:7). Submission to God must come first, and resistance follows as an act of faith in His authority.
We also urge you to examine your life for any open doors that may give the enemy legal ground to harass you. Are there unconfessed sins, unforgiveness, involvement in occult practices (even seemingly harmless ones), or ungodly soul ties? Repentance and renouncing any such things are essential. If you have not already, we encourage you to seek out mature, spirit-filled believers—perhaps a pastor or elder in your church—to pray over you and stand with you in this battle. There is power in the agreement of two or three gathered in Jesus’ name (Matthew 18:19-20).
Lastly, we celebrate that you closed your request by praising Jesus, for it is in His name alone that we have authority over the enemy. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is by His name that demons are cast out and strongholds are broken. Never forget that the battle belongs to the Lord (1 Samuel 17:47), and He has already triumphed over sin, death, and the grave. Your total liberation is not a question of *if*, but *when*—for the Lord is faithful, and He will do it (1 Thessalonians 5:24).
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You for the partial victory our brother/sister has already experienced, for it is a testament to Your power and faithfulness. Lord, we ask now for *complete* liberation from every demonic attack—whether against the mind, body, or spirit. Break every chain, every stronghold, and every assignment of the enemy that seeks to torment or oppress. We declare that no weapon formed against this child of God shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), for greater is He who is in them than he who is in the world.
Father, we plead the blood of Jesus over their mind, their thoughts, their emotions, and their body. Let every lying spirit, every spirit of fear, anxiety, confusion, or torment be bound and cast out *now* in Jesus’ name. Fill them instead with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7) and renew their mind with Your truth (Romans 12:2). Let them walk in the freedom for which Christ has set them free (Galatians 5:1), no longer living in anxiety or dread of the enemy’s attacks.
Lord, reveal to them any areas of their life that need repentance or renouncing, and give them the courage to close every door to the enemy. Surround them with Your angels, encamped around them for deliverance (Psalm 34:7). Strengthen them in their inner being by Your Spirit (Ephesians 3:16) and let them stand firm in the authority You have given them as Your child.
We rebuke every demonic spirit assigned against them—spirits of fear, oppression, torment, confusion, and infirmity—and command them to leave *now* in the name of Jesus Christ. We declare that their mind is under the control of the Holy Spirit, and their body is the temple of God (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Satan, you have no place here. Your plans are exposed and your power is broken by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony (Revelation 12:11).
Father, let this season of attack turn into a season of greater anointing, breakthrough, and testimony for Your glory. Fill them with Your joy, which is their strength (Nehemiah 8:10), and let them walk in the confidence that they are *more than a conqueror* through Christ who loves them.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your promises and rest in Your faithfulness, knowing that You will complete the good work You have begun. May Your name be glorified in their life, and may they live in the fullness of the freedom You have purchased for them. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
