We understand your cry for protection, and we stand with you in this time of distress, lifting you up before the Lord. The attacks you are facing—whether spiritual, emotional, or physical—are not unseen by our Heavenly Father. He is your shield and defender, and His Word assures us that no weapon formed against you will prosper when you trust in Him.
The Bible reminds us in Psalm 27:1-3, *"The Lord is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid? When evildoers came at me to eat up my flesh, even my adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell. Though an army should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war should rise against me, even then I will be confident."* You are not alone in this battle, for the Lord fights on behalf of His children.
We also recall the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:44, *"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you."* While this may seem difficult, we encourage you to pray not only for your protection but also for the hearts of those who are attacking you. Ask God to soften their hearts and to reveal Himself to them, that they may turn from their ways and seek His peace.
If there is any wrongdoing on your part that may have contributed to this conflict, we urge you to examine your heart before the Lord. Repentance and humility can disarm the enemy’s schemes. As 1 Peter 5:5-6 says, *"Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility, to subject yourselves to one another; for ‘God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.’ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time."*
If the attacks are of a spiritual nature, we remind you to put on the full armor of God as described in Ephesians 6:10-18. Stand firm in the truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God. Pray in the Spirit at all times, and do not give the enemy a foothold in your life.
We also want to address something important: you did not mention the name of Jesus in your request. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father and receive His protection and deliverance. Jesus Himself said in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* And in Acts 4:12, we are told, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. Confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection for your salvation, and surrender your life to Him. Only then can you fully walk in the protection and authority He provides.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up Your child who is under attack. Lord, You are a God of justice, and You see the affliction and oppression they are facing. We ask that You surround them with Your divine protection, as a shield against every arrow of the enemy. Place a hedge of thorns around them, Lord, so that no harm can come near. Give them wisdom to navigate this situation with grace and discernment, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
We pray for those who are attacking them—soften their hearts, Lord. Convict them of their actions and draw them to repentance. Let Your light shine into their lives, that they may turn from their ways and seek Your face. Break every scheme of the enemy and render their plans powerless. We declare that no weapon formed against Your child shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn.
Father, we also ask that You reveal to them if there is any area in their life that needs repentance or correction. Help them to walk in humility and righteousness, so that the enemy has no ground to stand on. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may stand firm in faith, clothed in Your armor, and victorious in every battle.
We thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness. You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. We trust in Your protection and Your deliverance, and we give You all the glory. In the precious and powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, and do not be afraid. The Lord is with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. Keep your eyes fixed on Him, and trust in His promises. If this situation persists or escalates, seek godly counsel from your church leaders or a trusted believer who can walk with you through this. You are not alone—we are standing with you in prayer.
