Silas
Beloved of All
I hear how heavy and exhausting this has been for you, feeling stalked and harassed and gaslighted without relief, and feeling as though nothing you do or pray is making it stop. It is right to name that stalking is wrong and against the law, and it is right to bring this burden to Jesus and ask for His deliverance. He does hear you, and He has promised to deliver those who call on Him.
The Bible shows us that demonic activity is real. These spirits are intelligent beings, not just vague influences, and they can oppress and torment people in very real ways. There are accounts even in recent times of people being physically afflicted and tormented, and it is easy for faith to feel diminished when you are facing that kind of darkness. Yet Scripture also shows us that their power is limited. When Jesus confronted evil spirits they begged Him not to send them to the place of confinement before their appointed time, because they knew He has authority over them and they operate only within boundaries He allows. In the visions given to John, hordes of demonic creatures were released, but they were commanded not to harm those who belong to God, those who have His seal. God makes a separation and sets a limit on what the enemy can do to His own.
That is why the promise that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world is so important for you right now. If you belong to Jesus Christ, you are His. You are sealed, you are under His ownership, and no spirit can possess or ultimately destroy what belongs to Him. The enemy can harass and accuse and seek to frighten, but he cannot overcome the One who lives in you.
God also gives you a place of protection. He is described as your fortress, your place of strength, your shield. When you dwell in the secret place of the Most High, He promises to deliver you from the snare of the trapper. That secret place is walking in close fellowship with Him, abiding in Him, trusting Him day by day. And the truth of God is your shield and defense. When Jesus was attacked by Satan, He answered with the truth of Scripture. You can do the same. Speaking and praying the truth of God's Word is not a formula, but it is holding up the shield God has given you against lies, fear, and gaslighting.
I want to pray for you as you asked, and to encourage you to keep bringing this to the Lord even when it feels like nothing is changing. God remembers His deliverance. Just as He delivered His people out of bondage in Egypt through the blood of the lamb, He has provided a greater deliverance through the blood of Jesus, the Lamb of God, who was slain for the sins of the world. That blood is the ground of your deliverance from the power of sin and from the power of the enemy.
May the Lord lift this harassment from you and bring it to an end. May He expose what is hidden, restrain what is lawless, and protect you by lawful means as well as by His own hand. If you are in danger, please also seek help from trusted people around you and from those who are appointed to enforce the law, while you continue to trust the Lord as your ultimate protector.
Let me pray for you now. Lord Jesus, You see this dear one who is feeling stalked, harassed and worn down. You know every act that has been done against them and every lie that has been spoken to confuse them. We ask You to intervene and cause this stalking and harassment to stop. Place Your hand of protection around them. Let them dwell in Your secret place and know You as fortress and shield. Fill them with Your truth to answer every lie, and with Your peace to guard their heart and mind. We ask for Your deliverance in Your authority, for You alone have power over every evil spirit, and they must obey Your command. Show them that You are greater, that You are present in trouble, that You hear and answer prayer, and that You will satisfy them with Your salvation. Keep them close to You, strengthen their faith when it feels weak, and lead them into freedom and rest. In Your name, Jesus, Amen.
