Spiritual warfare

[Dhitlor]

Since I was a child, I have experienced demonic attacks that mainly influence people around me to do terrible things to me to push me toward unforgiveness. I don't know what caused this. In the past few months, God has been helping me to see the presence of this spiritual warfare in my life and delivering me from it, however, in some ways, it still persists and even though things are better, I honestly feel very far from the blissful state I was in when He first delivered me especially because since then, some things have happened that have really tested me and attempted to push me back to being heavily bound by unforgiveness and these attacks. Additionally, there are certain people who these demonic attacks have influenced greater than others and I have had to experience extreme creepy, obsessive, deranged behavior from these individuals which will subside when I don't give in to unforgiveness. Since God has started to deliver me from these attacks, whenever I slip back into unforgiveness in any way, the attacks increase more now and the increase that occurs through these individuals has been insane. There are even some people in this category I'm talking about who seem to really be being used to test me in extreme ways to push me back into unforgiveness in spite of God's deliverance - for example, their behavior seemingly not even subsiding at all even when I resist the devil. While I long to be obedient to God in resisting unforgiveness and take joy in being forgiving, I'm honestly so tired of dealing with these people who have been used more than others and honestly, at this moment, want God to remove them completely from my life either way. Perhaps that is my flesh talking as I'm very annoyed. Their behavior while being influenced by these demons is extremely creepy (I mean to the point of the demons, through these individuals, openly showing that they are monitoring me). It's like a horror movie. Any slip into unforgiveness and here comes these individuals doing annoying, abusive, obsessive, deranged and creepy things. I mean Satan is using them heavily. Never mind the constantly trying to provoke me. And you can see the visible shift in these people away from this behavior when I resist what Satan is trying to do through them but I honestly feel that, mainly with one person in particular like this, I just don't like this person's behavior even when they are behaving normally and kindly to me and not influenced by this evil. They profess Christianity but there are serious problems with that profession and their behavior is very worldly. Please pray for me about all this and for a complete end to this evil in my life. Thank you.

We hear your cry for deliverance and stand with you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we have access to the Father and through whom victory over spiritual warfare is assured. Your battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, 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). The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that you may have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We rebuke every assignment of the devil against your life, every spirit of unforgiveness, bitterness, and torment, and we command them to flee in Jesus’ name.

The enemy has used people in your life to provoke you, to test your faith, and to lure you into unforgiveness, but we declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). The attacks you describe are real, and the enemy’s tactics are relentless, but greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). We recognize the exhaustion and frustration you feel, especially toward those who have been used as instruments of the enemy. It is understandable to feel weary, but we encourage you to guard your heart, for out of it are the issues of life (Proverbs 4:23). Even when you do not feel like it, choose to walk in forgiveness, for if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses (Matthew 6:15). Unforgiveness is a snare the enemy uses to keep you bound, and we refuse to let him have any foothold in your life.

We also address the concerning behavior of those who profess Christianity yet walk in worldliness. The Bible warns us to test the spirits, for many false prophets have gone out into the world (1 John 4:1). If their actions do not align with the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23)—then their profession may be empty. We pray for discernment for you, that you may recognize the difference between those who are truly walking with the Lord and those who are being used by the enemy. We also pray for these individuals, that their eyes would be opened to the truth and that they would turn from any influence of darkness.

We take authority over every demonic spirit assigned to torment you, to provoke you, and to push you toward unforgiveness. We command them to be bound and cast out in the name of Jesus Christ. We declare that you are covered by the blood of Jesus, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper. We pray for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit in your life, that you would be filled with His peace, joy, and strength. We ask the Lord to surround you with godly believers who will encourage you, pray with you, and stand with you in this battle. We also pray for wisdom in how to navigate relationships with those who have been used against you—whether that means setting boundaries, seeking godly counsel, or, if necessary, removing yourself from toxic influences.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the name above every name. We lift up our brother/sister to You, knowing that You see every attack, every provocation, and every scheme of the enemy. Lord, we ask for complete deliverance from this spiritual warfare. Break every chain, silence every lying voice, and dismantle every assignment of the enemy against their life. We declare that they are more than a conqueror through Christ who loves them (Romans 8:37).

Father, we ask for a fresh infilling of Your Holy Spirit. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Strengthen them in their inner man so that Christ may dwell in their heart through faith (Ephesians 3:16-17). Give them the grace to walk in forgiveness, even when it is difficult, and to release every offense into Your hands. We pray that You would heal any wounds in their heart and restore the joy of their salvation (Psalm 51:12).

Lord, we also pray for those who have been used as instruments of the enemy. Soften their hearts, open their eyes to the truth, and draw them into a genuine relationship with You. If they are truly Yours, convict them of any sin and lead them into repentance. If they are not, we ask that You would remove their influence from our brother/sister’s life, either by changing their hearts or by removing them from their path.

We declare that the enemy’s plans are frustrated. No weapon formed against our brother/sister shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You will condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We thank You for Your protection, Your deliverance, and Your faithfulness. We trust in You, Lord, and we declare that victory is ours in Christ Jesus.

In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.

We understand the frustration you feel towards those who have been used by the enemy to provoke you. It's like living in a horror movie, isn't it? But we want to remind you that these people are not your enemy, but tools used by the enemy. They are lost and in need of prayer, just like you.

We're going to keep praying for you, for complete deliverance, for wisdom in navigating these relationships, and for God's will to be done in every situation. We're also going to keep praying for those who have been used against you, that their eyes would be opened to the truth and they would turn from any influence of darkness.

In the meantime, keep walking in forgiveness, even when it's hard. Forgive as you've been forgiven (Matthew 6:14-15). And remember, you are never alone. We're in this together, and God is always with you, fighting for you.

Keep your heart and mind stayed on Jesus. He is your refuge and strength, a very present help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1). Trust in Him, and watch as He turns your story around.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
