Protection from spiritual attacks
- Thread starter Anonymous
- Start date
We join you in bringing this burden before the Father and we stand with you against these relentless attacks on your body and mind and the disturbances in your sleep, seeking His protection and peace together in Jesus name.
We know that our struggle is real and that the enemy seeks to steal peace and rest, 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. Yet we take comfort that greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world 1 John 4:4, and that the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one 2 Thessalonians 3:3. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control 2 Timothy 1:7, and when we submit ourselves to God and resist the devil, he will flee from us James 4:7. We cling to the promise that he who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty Psalm 91:1, and that in peace we will both lay ourselves down and sleep, for you, Yahweh alone, make us live in safety Psalm 4:8.
We pray together, Father in heaven, we come before you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to your throne of grace. We thank you that you are our refuge and fortress, our God in whom we trust. We lift up this dear one to you who is weary from attacks on body and mind and from broken sleep. We ask for your covering over mind, body, and spirit, and we rebuke every spiritual attack and every work of darkness that has been sent to disturb and oppress, commanding it to leave in the name of Jesus. We ask you to put your whole armor upon this dear one, that they may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil Ephesians 6:11, with the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shield of faith, and the sword of the Spirit which is your word. We pray that your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard hearts and thoughts in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7, and that you will grant deep, undisturbed, and restorative sleep. Let no weapon that is formed against them prevail Isaiah 54:17, and let your holy angels encamp around them. Fill their mind with your truth and their bedroom with your presence, and let no fear remain. We ask this according to your will and for your glory, in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
We encourage you to continue to stand firm in faith, being sober and self-controlled and watchful, for your adversary the devil walks around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, but resist him steadfast in your faith 1 Peter 5:8. Put on the whole armor of God daily through prayer and the word, and before you sleep spend time in prayer, worship, and scripture rather than dwelling on the attacks, casting all your anxieties on Him because He cares for you. Speak the name of Jesus over your mind and your room, for there is power in His name, and keep your heart and mind fixed on His promises, trusting that He who watches over you neither slumbers nor sleeps and that He gives sleep to His beloved.

We hear how heavy this has been, feeling pressed in both body and mind and then unable to find rest at night. When sleep is broken night after night it wears down every part of us, and we want you to know we are holding you in prayer and you are not alone in this.
Sleep touches our whole person at once, body, mind and spirit together, so it makes sense that disturbances there feel so unsettling and leave everything else more vulnerable. We are asking God for His protection and quiet over you, and we also want to encourage steady support around you as you keep praying through this.
If you have a trusted pastor or a couple of mature believers nearby, consider asking them to pray with you regularly in person so you are not carrying this by yourself. Keeping a simple, consistent evening rhythm can be a gentle help as well, and if the disturbed sleep continues or affects how you feel during the day, please see your doctor alongside prayer so you are cared for physically too.
Father, we bring our friend to You in Jesus' name. We ask You to cover their body and mind, to calm what feels relentless and to guard their sleep. Grant quiet through the night and renewed strength for each day, and make Your nearness known in the dark hours. Give wisdom to those walking with them and lead them step by step in Your peace. Amen.

Beloved of All
I prayed for this request in Jesus Name. Amen.

Beloved of All
Your request has been heard and we have brought it before the Lord with you, entreating Him for your protection and peace in the name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and Saviour.
You speak of relentless attacks upon body and mind, and of sleep broken and disturbed. We know what it is to be in this body and to groan, being burdened, for we that are in this body do groan under its infirmities and under the assaults of a sinful world. Yet we are not left without a Keeper. He never fails for lack of power, nor because of a change of mind, and He has laid down His life to bring His own home to His Father's house.
Remember that sleep itself is the gift of God. For so He giveth His beloved sleep. It is not to be forced by our own striving, nor procured by our own devices, but it descends as a mercy from His hand. He it is who steeps the mind and bids us slumber, that our bodies may be refreshed and recruited for the morrow. Sleep is His best physician to the weary frame and to the throbbing brain. When night follows night without rest, we feel how great the blessing is, and we are taught to seek it from Him who alone can give it.
We pray for you now that the Lord would be your shield by night and by day. May He guard your body from harm and your mind from fear, and grant you that sleep of security which belongs to those who rest under the shadow of His wings. Though the body sleeps, the soul sleepeth not when it abides in Christ, for you are kept by Him who neither slumbers nor sleeps.
Let us pray together. O Lord our God, look in mercy upon this afflicted one, wearied in body and troubled in mind, and disturbed in sleep. Rebuke every evil assault and let no weapon formed against Your child prosper. Cover this soul with the blood of Christ and with the whole armour which You have provided, that standing in Jesus alone, there may be peace within and rest without. Give Your beloved sleep, quiet the thoughts, calm the fears, and let the heart awake refreshed to serve You. Keep this one in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, and cause Your presence to be felt as a comfort by night as well as by day. We ask this in the precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
Cast all your care upon Him, for He careth for you. Seek Him still in His Word and in prayer, and trust not in your own power to keep yourself, but in His divine power and wisdom to bring you through. As one whom his mother comforts, so will the Lord comfort you.
