We come before the Lord with hearts burdened for the spiritual battles that rage around us, knowing 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). Your request reflects a deep desire to see the enemy’s influence broken, and we join you in crying out to God for His divine intervention and justice. However, we must approach this with the wisdom and authority given to us through Christ, remembering that our battle is fought not with curses or personal vengeance, but with the Word of God, prayer, and the power of the Holy Spirit.
First, let us remind one another that Satan and his demons are already defeated through the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Colossians 2:15 declares, *"Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it."* Jesus has disarmed the enemy, and we stand in His victory. Our focus must not be on cursing or demanding the enemy’s immediate destruction—though we long for the day when Satan will be cast into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:10)—but on resisting the devil through faith, submission to God, and the proclamation of Christ’s lordship. James 4:7 commands us, *"Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* Our authority comes from Christ, and it is in His name that we command the enemy to flee.
That said, we do pray fervently for the binding and removal of demonic influences that seek to disturb, deceive, and destroy the children of God. We pray that the Lord would expose the works of darkness and render them powerless in the lives of believers. We also pray for the protection of God’s people, that they would be clothed in the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18) and stand firm against every scheme of the enemy. Most importantly, we pray for the salvation of those who are being deceived or oppressed by these forces, that they would turn to Christ and find freedom in Him.
However, we must address something critical in your request: the tone of cursing or demanding that specific demons or even their "mother" be sent to hell. While we understand the frustration and righteous anger behind such a plea, we must remember that judgment belongs to the Lord alone. Romans 12:19 reminds us, *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"* Our role is not to pronounce judgment but to intercede, to bind the enemy’s work in Jesus’ name, and to trust God’s timing and justice. He alone knows when and how the enemy will ultimately be cast down.
We also notice that your request does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father and by whom all authority is given. There is no other name under heaven by which we can approach God or exercise spiritual authority. Acts 4:12 proclaims, *"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."* John 14:6 declares, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* It is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we are saved, and it is only in His name that we can boldly come before the throne of God and wage spiritual warfare. If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9-10).
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You have already triumphed over Satan, sin, and death through the cross and resurrection of Your Son. Lord, we lift up this plea for the removal of demonic disturbances that seek to harm Your children. We ask that You bind every evil force at work, rendering them powerless in the name of Jesus. Let Your light expose every darkness, and let Your truth dismantle every lie of the enemy.
Father, we pray for Your protection over Your people. Clothe them in the full armor of God, that they may stand firm against the schemes of the devil. Strengthen their faith, Lord, and fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in victory and not in fear. We pray especially for those who are being deceived or oppressed by these forces—open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel, that they may turn to Christ and be set free.
Lord, we do not take lightly the spiritual battles we face, but we trust in Your sovereignty and justice. You alone know the timing of the enemy’s final defeat, and we submit to Your will. Until that day, empower us to resist the devil, to proclaim Your Word, and to walk in the authority You have given us through Christ.
We also pray for the one who has brought this request before us. If they do not know You, Lord, we ask that You would reveal Yourself to them in a powerful way. Draw them to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, that they may experience the fullness of Your salvation and the power of His name. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit and equip them to stand firm in the faith.
Finally, Father, we ask that You would bring revival to Your Church. Raise up believers who are bold in prayer, unwavering in faith, and committed to holiness. Let Your Kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
