Protection from spiritual attacks

We hear your cry for protection and we stand with you together before the throne of grace in Jesus' name, asking our Father for His covering over your body and mind and for peaceful rest.
We know that our struggle 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 do not fear, for greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world 1 John 4:4, and no weapon that is formed against you will prevail Isaiah 54:17. Our God is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one 2 Thessalonians 3:3.
We encourage you to submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you James 4:7. We put on the whole armor of God together, the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, feet fitted with the preparation of the Good News of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God Ephesians 6:11, Ephesians 6:17. When anxious thoughts and disturbances press on your mind, we take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ 2 Corinthians 10:5, and we claim the promise that God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control 2 Timothy 1:7. We cast all our anxiety on Him, because He cares for us 1 Peter 5:7, and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7.
For your sleep, we claim His promise that you will both lay down and sleep in peace, for you alone, Yahweh, make us dwell in safety Psalm 4:8. He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty Psalm 91:1. We encourage you in these days to draw near to Him before you lie down, to fill your room and mind with worship and the Word, to confess any open door and receive His forgiveness, to forgive any who have wronged you, and to speak His promises aloud over your home and your body. Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more Psalm 121:7-8. Do not fear, for He says Fear not, for I am with you. Don't be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness Isaiah 41:10.
We pray together now.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, and we thank You that we have access to Your throne only through Him. We lift up this dear one to You who is enduring relentless attacks on body and mind. We ask You to surround them with Your presence as a shield. We rebuke every spiritual attack, every spirit of torment, oppression, fear and sleeplessness, and we command it to flee in the name of Jesus. Let Your holy angels encamp around them and keep them in all their ways. Cover their mind with Your helmet of salvation and wash their thoughts with Your Word. Cover their body with Your healing hand and let no disturbance remain. Grant them deep, undisturbed, restorative sleep, for You give sleep to Your beloved. Fill their home with Your peace that surpasses all understanding and let them awake refreshed, strengthened and filled with joy in You. Help them to stand strong in faith, to walk in obedience to You, and to rest securely knowing that You never slumber nor sleep but watch over them continually. We trust You to establish them, guard them, and cause them to dwell in safety until You return. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.

We hear how exhausting this has been for you, facing what feels like relentless pressure on your body and mind and then losing the rest you need at night. When sleep is disturbed over and over, everything feels heavier, and we are praying for you with that weariness in mind.
We believe God designed sleep as a good gift for the whole person, for body and soul, and He sees how this struggle has left you tired and unsettled. We also believe the spiritual battle is real, and that God is nearer and stronger than anything coming against you. You do not have to sort it all out alone to be safe in His care.
One steady next step that helps many people is to bring another trusted believer close in. If you have a pastor or mature Christian nearby, consider asking them to pray with you in person and to keep checking in, especially around the evening hours when the disturbances feel heaviest. Since ongoing sleep trouble also affects your health, please consider talking with your doctor alongside prayer so you have care for both body and spirit.
Father, we lift our friend to You now. We ask for Your protection over their body and mind, for Your peace to guard them through the night, and for truly restful sleep in Your care. Surround them with wise, steady support and help them sense Your nearness and keeping power day by day. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Spurgeon
Beloved of All
We have brought your request before the Lord and join you in praying for His protection and peace upon your body and mind.
You speak of relentless attacks and broken sleep, and we know how weariness of body and restlessness of mind can lie heavy upon the soul. Hear the promise of Scripture, You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. There is a peace which the world cannot give and cannot take away, for it flows from the blood of Jesus which whispers peace within. It is peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, who has reconciled us to Himself, and peace in the conscience which is the publication of that treaty. This peace is a present possession and may be enjoyed even when sorrows surge around and when duties press.
Sleep itself is the gift of God, for so He giveth His beloved sleep. The demon of restlessness does not so easily come to that bed where there is a quiet conscience, a conscience right with God through faith in Christ. When the heart is stayed upon Jesus, He can give soft and refreshing rest even in the midnight of this world of care. The Lord will bless His people with peace, and that peace only comes from God Himself. You cannot work it out yourself, but you may receive it from lips that cannot lie, through the blood which has made a full atonement.
We pray for you now, that the Lord who is your Shepherd and Keeper will guard you from every spiritual assault. May He clothe you in the whole armor of God, that you may stand against the wiles of the enemy, and may He rebuke every power that would disturb your rest. May He still the turmoil of anxious thoughts, quiet your mind by His Spirit, and grant you that perfect peace which comes from trusting in Him. May He give you sleep as He gives to His beloved, restoring your body and renewing your strength, and may you awake to know that in Jesus keeping you are safe.
Cast your cares upon Him, bear your sorrow with Him, and keep your mind stayed upon Christ through His Word and prayer, especially as you lie down. Resist the enemy steadfast in the faith, and draw near to God who has promised to draw near to you. If any sin lies upon the conscience, confess it plainly before the Lord and look again to the cross where peace was purchased for you.
Our prayer is that you will know more fully that peace which Jesus left as His legacy to His own, Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you, and that you will prove in body and mind that to do the will of Jesus is rest. May the Lord command His blessing upon you, keep you in perfect peace day and night, and cause you to lie down and sleep in safety, for He alone makes you to dwell in safety. In the name of Jesus Christ our only hope and Redeemer we ask it, Amen.
