Repent… Become better.. deliverance

Disciple of Prayer
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I need prayer for deliverance from lying and deceit. I want to be completely honest and transparent here.. I am a liar. I have lied to people I love, to people I care about, and even over things that don’t matter. I continue to lie when I do not have to. A lie is a lie but when I say I am a liar I mean I lie effortlessly and don’t have the remorse or instant regret that I should have. Sometimes it’s small lies and sometimes it’s bigger ones. I have made lying a habit. I made it practically my nature. I constantly have excused it as “white lies” or tell myself it was to avoid conflict or letting someone down to excuse my disgusting behavior. The root of it is I was and am being selfish. I didn’t want to face accountability. Instead I sit and tell lies until I choose to believe them myself. I tell lies and try to continue to stand on my lies when confronted with them to avoid accountability and make myself feel better. I find ways to justify my lies when it’s wrong. It has damaged my relationships and it is damaging my spirit. The one person I love the most sees me as a liar and they are right. I cannot argue that anymore. I cannot point fingers at others or deflect to avoid my own wrongs. This sin has tarnished my reputation, my integrity (if I even had any) and my walk with God. I do not want to live like this anymore. I want to repent and turn from lying completely. I want to speak the truth, move with integrity and keep a pure heart. I want to be free from the urge to deceive, even in the smallest ways. I am asking for Prayer that God would remove the spirit of Deceit from me, cleanse me, and help me walk only in truth. I want my words and actions to reflect him, not lies. Please pray that I can be delivered from this sin, that I will be strengthened to resist the temptation to lie, and that God will restore me into someone trustworthy, honest, and pure hearted.
 
We stand with you in this moment of raw honesty and brokenness before the Lord, for it is only by His grace that we can confront the depths of our sin and find true repentance. Your willingness to acknowledge this struggle is the first step toward freedom, and we commend you for laying this burden at the feet of Jesus. The Scriptures remind us that *"If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:8-9, WEB). You have done what many refuse to do—confess the truth about yourself, and that is where healing begins.

The enemy has used deceit to ensnare you, but we declare in the name of Jesus that the spirit of lying has no authority over you. The Bible is clear: *"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4, WEB). The Father has not left you in this bondage; He is calling you out of darkness into His marvelous light. *"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcries, and blasphemies be taken away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you"* (Ephesians 4:31-32, WEB). Your struggle is not just against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces that seek to keep you in chains. But Jesus has already won the victory, and by His power, you *can* walk in truth.

We must also address the root of this sin, as you have so honestly identified: selfishness and the fear of accountability. The Word of God tells us, *"Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself"* (Philippians 2:3, WEB). Lying is often a tool of the flesh to protect our own interests, but Christ calls us to die to ourselves daily. True freedom comes when we surrender our desire to control narratives, avoid discomfort, or preserve our image. Instead, we must trust that God’s way—honesty, even when it’s painful—is the path to life.

Now, let us pray together for your deliverance and restoration:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who has humbly confessed their sin of deceit. Lord, You are the God of truth, and Your Word tells us that *"the lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked is perverse"* (Proverbs 10:32, WEB). We ask that You break every chain of lying that has bound them. Uproot this stronghold, Father, and replace it with a spirit of honesty, integrity, and courage. Let them no longer be enslaved to the fear of man or the need to manipulate, but let them find their security in You alone.

We rebuke the spirit of deceit in the name of Jesus Christ. Every lie that has been spoken, every half-truth told to avoid accountability—we declare it null and void by the blood of the Lamb. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, so that their words may be seasoned with grace and truth. *"Let no corrupt speech proceed out of [their] mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear"* (Ephesians 4:29, WEB).

Father, we ask for restoration. Restore the trust that has been broken in their relationships, especially with the one they love most. Soften hearts and bring healing where there has been hurt. Let their life become a testimony of Your transforming power, so that others may see Your work in them and glorify Your name.

Strengthen them, Lord, in moments of temptation. When the enemy whispers that a lie is easier, remind them that *"the Lord is [their] helper. [They] will not fear what man can do to [them]"* (Hebrews 13:6, WEB). Give them the courage to speak the truth in love, even when it’s difficult. Let them walk in the freedom that comes from a clear conscience before You.

We also pray for a renewed mind. *"Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of [their] mind, so that [they] may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God"* (Romans 12:2, WEB). Replace the patterns of deceit with Your Word, which is a lamp to their feet and a light to their path.

Finally, Father, we thank You that You do not leave us in our sin but call us to repentance and new life. We declare that our brother/sister is no longer a slave to lying but is a new creation in Christ Jesus. *"Therefore if anyone is in Christ, [they are] a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new"* (2 Corinthians 5:17, WEB). May they walk in this truth, empowered by Your Spirit, for Your glory.

In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.

Brother/sister, we urge you to stay vigilant in this fight. Surround yourself with believers who will hold you accountable and speak truth into your life. Memorize Scripture that combats deception, such as *"You shall not lie with one another"* (Leviticus 19:11, WEB) and *"Therefore, putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members of one another"* (Ephesians 4:25, WEB). When temptation comes, cry out to Jesus immediately—He is your strength.

Also, consider whether there are relationships or situations where lying has become a habit. Ask God to give you wisdom in how to make amends where possible, always seeking His guidance in how to restore trust. Remember, this is not a battle you fight alone. *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit"* (Psalm 34:18, WEB). Keep your heart soft before Him, and He will lead you into all truth.

We are standing with you in this. Keep pressing forward, for the Lord is faithful to complete the work He has begun in you.
 
We're here with you, friend, in this journey towards honesty and truth. We feel your burden, and we want you to know that you're not alone in this fight. We're standing right beside you, cheering you on and lifting you up in prayer.

Firstly, we want to commend you for your bravery. It takes immense courage to acknowledge and confess your struggles, especially when they're as deep-rooted as lying. But remember, the first step towards freedom is always honesty, and you've taken that step boldly. We're proud of you!

We understand that lying has become a habit for you, a way to avoid conflict or accountability. But we want to remind you of the truth in Romans 8:1, "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." You are not defined by your past mistakes or habits. You are a child of God, loved and cherished, and He is working in you to transform you into the person He created you to be.

We also want to assure you that God is not shocked or disappointed by your confession. He already knows your heart, and He loves you just the same. In fact, He's delighted to see you turning towards Him, seeking His help and forgiveness. As it says in 1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

So, let's pray together, shall we?

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today, laying our brother/sister at Your feet. They have confessed their struggle with lying, and we ask that You would pour out Your grace and mercy upon them. Help them to see the truth of their situation, Lord, and give them the strength to turn away from deceit.

We ask that You would break every chain of lying that has bound them. Replace it with a spirit of honesty, integrity, and courage. Help them to find their security in You alone, not in the need to manipulate or avoid conflict.

We also ask for restoration, Lord. Restore the trust that has been broken in their relationships, especially with the one they love the most. Soften hearts and bring healing where there has been hurt. Let their life be a testimony of Your transforming power, so that others may see Your work in them and glorify Your name.

Strengthen them, Lord, in moments of temptation. Remind them that You are their helper, and they need not fear what man can do to them. Give them the courage to speak the truth in love, even when it's difficult. Let them walk in the freedom that comes from a clear conscience before You.

We also pray for a renewed mind, Lord. Replace the patterns of deceit with Your Word, which is a lamp to their feet and a light to their path. Help them to prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

Finally, Father, we thank You that You do not leave us in our sin but call us to repentance and new life. We declare that our brother/sister is no longer a slave to lying but is a new creation in Christ Jesus. May they walk in this truth, empowered by Your Spirit, for Your glory.

In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
