Spiritual warfare

We hear the deep weariness in your heart, and we stand with you in this battle, for the Scriptures remind us 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). You are not alone in this fight, and we are grateful you have reached out for prayer, for the Lord has not left you defenseless. He has given you authority through His Son, Jesus Christ, to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). Yet we must also remember that this authority is not wielded in our own strength, but through the power of the Holy Spirit and the name of Jesus, which is above every name (Philippians 2:9-11).
First, we must ask: have you surrendered every area of your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? Spiritual warfare is intense for those who are not fully anchored in Him, for the enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). If you have not yet placed your complete trust in Jesus, we urge you to do so now. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only through Him that we can stand firm against the schemes of the devil. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). If you have already done this, we encourage you to examine your life for any areas where you may have given the enemy a foothold—whether through unconfessed sin, involvement in occult practices, unforgiveness, or rebellion against God’s Word. The Scriptures warn us, “Give no opportunity to the devil” (Ephesians 4:27). Repentance and renouncing any ties to darkness are critical steps in breaking the enemy’s hold.
We also urge you to put on the whole armor of God daily, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. This armor includes the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of 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 6:13-17). Many believers neglect this discipline and wonder why they continue to face relentless attacks. You cannot afford to be passive—this is a fight, and you must be equipped. Immerse yourself in Scripture, for it is your offensive weapon. Jesus Himself used the Word to rebuke Satan in the wilderness (Matthew 4:1-11), and so must we.
Additionally, we must address the weariness you feel. The Lord Jesus invites you, “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). Your exhaustion is real, but do not let it drive you to despair or isolation. The enemy wants you to feel hopeless, but God is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Lean on your brothers and sisters in Christ—you were not meant to fight alone. If you do not have a strong, Bible-believing church community, we urge you to seek one out immediately. Iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17), and you need the support of fellow believers to stand firm.
Lastly, we must remind you that while we pray for a permanent end to this spiritual warfare—and we *will* pray fervently for that—our ultimate victory is already secured in Christ. The enemy has been defeated at the cross (Colossians 2:15), though he still wages war as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). Your focus must not be solely on the cessation of attacks, but on your growth in Christlikeness through them. The apostle Paul speaks of a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan sent to torment him, and the Lord’s response was, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Sometimes, the Lord allows these battles to keep us dependent on Him, to refine us, and to draw us closer to His heart.
Now, let us pray for you with the authority and confidence we have in Christ Jesus:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up Your child who has endured spiritual warfare from childhood. Lord, we declare that this battle is not theirs to fight alone, for You are their shield and their exceeding great reward (Genesis 15:1). We ask You to expose every scheme of the enemy, every hidden stronghold, and every area where the enemy has gained access. Lord, if there is any unconfessed sin, any involvement in darkness, or any bitterness or unforgiveness in their heart, we pray You would bring it to light now. Grant them the courage to repent and turn fully to You, that they may walk in the freedom Christ purchased on the cross.
Father, we bind every demonic force assigned against them—every spirit of fear, oppression, torment, and weariness—in the name of Jesus. We command these spirits to flee and never return, for greater is He who is in them than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). We loose the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, to guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and let Your presence be their strength and their song (Exodus 15:2).
Lord, we pray for divine restoration—restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). Heal the wounds inflicted by this prolonged battle, and let them experience Your supernatural peace and rest. Surround them with Your angels, Lord, and let them encounter Your love in a fresh and powerful way. Let them know, beyond any doubt, that they are Your beloved child, and that You are fighting for them (Exodus 14:14).
We also pray for godly community, Father. Lead them to a church where Your Word is preached boldly, where they can be discipled, and where they can find brothers and sisters to stand with them in prayer. Break every isolation the enemy has tried to place upon them, and let them walk in the unity of the Spirit (Ephesians 4:3).
Finally, Lord, we ask for a permanent end to this spiritual warfare. We declare that the enemy has no legal right to torment them, for they belong to You. Let this season of attack come to a complete and final end, in Jesus’ name. Let them walk in victory, clothed in Your armor, and filled with Your Spirit. May they testify of Your faithfulness and power to deliver.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your sovereignty and Your goodness, knowing that You work all things together for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purpose (Romans 8:28). Let Your will be done in their life, and let Your kingdom come in fullness. We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Stand firm, dear one. The Lord is with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and do not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season you will reap a harvest if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). We are standing with you in this fight, and we believe the Lord will bring you into a place of victory and rest.

We're here with you, dear friend, feeling the weight of the spiritual battle you've been fighting since childhood. It's exhausting, we know, but you're not alone. We're standing right beside you, and we're going to keep fighting alongside you until this battle is won.
First things first, let's make sure you're fully surrendered to Jesus. He's the only one who can give you the strength and authority to stand against the enemy. If you haven't already, confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). If you have, then let's make sure there are no areas in your life where you've given the enemy a foothold. Unconfessed sin, involvement in the occult, unforgiveness, or rebellion against God's Word can all give the enemy a stronghold. Repentance and renouncing any ties to darkness are crucial steps in breaking the enemy's hold.
Next, we need to put on the whole armor of God daily (Ephesians 6:13-17). This isn't just a suggestion; it's a command. You can't afford to be passive in this fight. Immerse yourself in Scripture. It's your offensive weapon, and Jesus used it to rebuke Satan in the wilderness (Matthew 4:1-11).
Now, let's address the weariness you're feeling. Jesus invites you, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28).
