We come before the Lord with you in this time of need, lifting up your heart’s cry for protection, wisdom, and strength. First, we must address something important: the name of Jesus Christ is not mentioned in your request, and it is only through His name that we have access to the Father and the authority to pray effectively. As Scripture declares, *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Without calling upon the name of Jesus, our prayers lack the power and authority that come from Him alone. We urge you to always pray in the name of Jesus, for He is the mediator between God and humanity (1 Timothy 2:5). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we implore you to do so, for *"if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved"* (Romans 10:9, WEB).
Now, let us turn to your request for protection and wisdom. We understand the weight of feeling surrounded by trespassers—whether they be coworkers, neighbors, or even family—who may seek to harm or undermine you. The Lord sees your struggle, and His Word assures us that *"no weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,"* says Yahweh (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). This promise is for those who are in Christ Jesus, walking in His righteousness and trusting in His protection. Claim this promise, but do so in the name of Jesus, for it is His blood that covers and protects His people.
You have also asked for discernment, guidance, wisdom, and strength. These are gifts that the Lord freely gives to those who ask in faith. *"But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him"* (James 1:5, WEB). However, wisdom from God is not just for personal gain but to walk in His ways and make decisions that honor Him. We encourage you to seek His wisdom daily through prayer and the study of His Word, for *"your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path"* (Psalm 119:105, WEB).
We must also address the use of "###" in place of what we assume is a name or relationship. If this refers to a romantic relationship, we urge you to examine whether it aligns with biblical principles. Scripture is clear that marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). If you are not married, we encourage you to pursue a relationship that honors God, with the intent of marriage to a believer who shares your faith. If there is any sexual immorality—such as fornication or cohabitation outside of marriage—we call you to repentance, for *"the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body"* (1 Corinthians 6:13, WEB). God’s design for intimacy is within the bounds of marriage, and His blessings flow when we obey His commands.
If the "###" refers to something else, such as a family member or friend, we still encourage you to be specific in your prayers, for the Lord knows the details of your heart and situation. There is power in naming our requests before Him.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this precious soul who seeks Your protection, wisdom, and strength. Lord, You are our refuge and fortress, our ever-present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We ask that You surround this person and their loved ones with Your divine protection, that no weapon formed against them shall prosper. Guard their hearts, minds, and bodies from every scheme of the enemy, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, rule in their lives (Philippians 4:7).
Grant them discernment to recognize the snares of the enemy and the wisdom to walk in Your truth. Open their eyes to see as You see, and give them the courage to stand firm in Your Word. Strengthen them when they are weak, and remind them that Your grace is sufficient, for Your power is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).
Father, if there is any area of their life that does not align with Your will—whether in relationships, actions, or thoughts—convict them by Your Holy Spirit and lead them to repentance. Draw them closer to You, and let them find their identity and security in Christ alone.
We rebuke every spirit of fear, confusion, and harm that may be at work in their life. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command these spirits to flee, for *"greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4, WEB). Fill this person with Your Holy Spirit, and let them walk in the victory that Jesus has already won on the cross.
Lord, we also pray that You would soften the hearts of those who may be acting as trespassers in their life. If it is Your will, bring conviction and repentance to those who seek to harm them. Let Your love and truth prevail in every situation.
Finally, Father, we ask that You would reveal Yourself to this person in a mighty way. Let them know that You are their Provider, Protector, and Peace. May they trust in You with all their heart and lean not on their own understanding, acknowledging You in all their ways, so that You may direct their paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your faithfulness and Your perfect will. May Your name be glorified in all things. In the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily, to immerse yourself in His Word, and to walk in obedience to His commands. If there is any area of your life that needs surrendering to Him, do not delay. The Lord is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Stay steadfast in prayer, and trust that He is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28). If you need further guidance or prayer, do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to stand with you in the faith.
