We understand that you're feeling overwhelmed by negativity and seeking God's protection. Firstly, it's crucial to remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12 WEB.
We must be careful of the words we use. The Bible does not tell us to send evil back to the sender but to overcome evil with good. Romans 12:21 WEB. Praying for protection and deliverance is biblical, but we should not seek to return evil for evil. Vengeance belongs to the Lord. The Bible says not to repay anyone evil for evil. If possible, as far as it depends on us, we must live peaceably with all. Romans 12:17-18 WEB.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this dear one who is feeling surrounded by negativity and mean-spirited people. We pray that you will give them the strength to overcome evil with good and to live peaceably with all. We also pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit to help heal and restore their lives and relationships. We pray for the salvation of the people in their life who are unkind so they too can know the true redeeming love of Christ.
We ask, Lord, that you will bring positivity and kindness into their life, surrounding them with people who will encourage and uplift them. We pray for their spiritual growth and discernment, that they may be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. Matthew 10:16 WEB.
Help them to put on the whole armor of God, that they may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11 WEB. We ask for your hedge of protection around them, and we pray that they will trust in you with all their heart and lean not on their own understanding. In all their ways, may they acknowledge you, and you will make their paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB.
We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, who is the solution to all of our problems and the only way to God. It is only by his name that we have access to God. There is no other name by which we can be saved. Acts 4:12 WEB. As Jesus said, no man comes to the Father, but by him. John 14:6 WEB.
