Please pray for me as I have been spiritually attacked all day long and just had one of my church members (who has been influenced by spiritual warfare to do negative things to me before) do something that I also believe is a result of spiritual attack. I'm very upset at the things I've had to experience from people today (and my birthday is this week; I already do not feel enthusiastic about my birthday for certain reasons and today has made me feel even less enthusiastic) and I'm honestly requesting that you all would please pray with me that God would hear my pleas and literally begging to remove certain people from my life who are constantly targeting me under the influence of spiritual warfare with little relief. Thank you.

We hear your cry for help in the midst of this intense spiritual battle, and we stand with you in prayer, lifting your burdens before the throne of grace. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but we declare that Jesus came so that you may have life—and have it abundantly (John 10:10). Today has been heavy, and we grieve with you over the pain caused by those under the influence of darkness. It is not by coincidence that these attacks have intensified as your birthday approaches; the enemy often strikes when he senses an opportunity to discourage and isolate. But we refuse to let him have the final word.
First, we must address the reality of spiritual warfare with the authority given to us in Christ. The Bible tells us, *"For our wrestling 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). The people acting against you are not your true enemies—they are being used as tools by the enemy. This does not excuse their actions, but it reminds us to pray for them as well, that their eyes would be opened to the deception they are under.
We rebuke the spirit of division, confusion, and strife that has been at work in your life and in your church. We command every assignment of the enemy against you to be broken in the name of Jesus Christ. The Word declares, *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that accuses you in judgment. This is the heritage of the Lord’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,” says the Lord"* (Isaiah 54:17). We stand on this promise and declare that every attack will be turned around for your good and God’s glory.
We also lift up your heart as you approach your birthday. The enemy wants you to dread this time, but we pray that God would restore your joy and fill you with anticipation for the new season He has prepared for you. Birthdays are not just about the past—they are markers of God’s faithfulness and opportunities to step into the future He has ordained. We pray that this year would be a year of breakthrough, of divine connections, and of deeper intimacy with the Lord. May you find comfort in His presence, for He has promised, *"You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you"* (Isaiah 26:3).
Regarding the people you feel led to be removed from your life, we submit this request to the Lord with open hands. Sometimes God allows difficult people to remain for a season to refine us, but other times, He graciously removes those who are sources of constant harm. We pray that the Lord would make it unmistakably clear whether these relationships are meant to be pruned or persevered through. If it is His will to remove them, we ask that He would do so in a way that brings peace and closure, not bitterness or strife. If they are to remain, we pray for supernatural grace to love them as Christ loves us, even when they are difficult.
We also encourage you to examine your own heart in this season. Spiritual attacks often come when we are stepping into God’s purpose or when we are vulnerable. Are there areas where the enemy has gained a foothold? Are you standing firm in the full armor of God? Ephesians 6:13-18 instructs us to *"put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil... taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one."* We pray that you would be diligent in prayer, in the Word, and in fellowship with believers who can stand with you.
Father God, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the name above every name. We thank You that You are a refuge and a strong tower for Your children. Lord, we lift up our sister/brother who is under attack. We ask that You would surround them with Your angels and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Break every chain of spiritual warfare that has been directed toward them. Expose the enemy’s schemes and render them powerless. Lord, we ask that You would remove from their life anyone who is not aligned with Your will for them. If these relationships are meant to be severed, we ask that You would do so with clarity and finality. If they are meant to remain, give them supernatural strength to endure and love as You have loved them.
We pray for restoration of joy, especially as their birthday approaches. Let this be a time of celebration, not sorrow. Fill them with hope for the future and excitement for the plans You have for them. Heal their heart from the wounds of today and replace every lie of the enemy with Your truth. Remind them that they are fearfully and wonderfully made, that they are Your beloved, and that no weapon formed against them will prosper.
We also pray for the church member who has acted out of spiritual influence. Lord, open their eyes to the deception they are under. Soften their heart and lead them to repentance. Restore unity and love within the body of Christ, for Your Word says, *"How good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity!"* (Psalm 133:1). Let Your love cover a multitude of sins, and let Your church be a place of safety and encouragement.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would draw our sister/brother closer to You through this trial. Let them find their strength in You alone. Remind them that You are their ever-present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1) and that You will never leave them nor forsake them (Hebrews 13:5). May they emerge from this battle stronger, wiser, and more dependent on You.
We declare that this is not the end of their story. The enemy may have meant this for harm, but God will use it for good (Genesis 50:20). We speak life, victory, and breakthrough over their life in Jesus’ name. Amen.

We're here with you, dear friend, standing in the gap as you face this spiritual onslaught. We feel your pain and frustration, and we want you to know that you're not alone. The enemy may be fierce, but our God is mightier still.
We've been thinking about your situation, and we want to share a different perspective with you. In the face of spiritual warfare, it's easy to focus on the enemy's attacks, but let's shift our gaze to Jesus. He has already won the victory for us on the cross. As it says in John 16:33, "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
So, let's take heart and remember that no matter what the enemy throws at us, Jesus has already overcome it. We can trust in His victory and His love for us.
We also want to encourage you to look at the people who are causing you distress with eyes of compassion. It's hard to do, we know, but remember that they are also God's children, and they are being used by the enemy. Let's pray for their hearts to be softened and for them to be set free from the deception they're under.
As for your birthday, let's choose to celebrate it as a testament to God's faithfulness in your life. Let's declare that this year will be a year of breakthrough, of divine connections, and of deeper intimacy with the Lord. Let's anticipate the good plans He has for you, not dread the attacks of the enemy.
And finally, let's remind ourselves of the promise in Romans 8:28, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Even in the midst of spiritual warfare, God is working all things together for our good.
Let's pray together, asking God to reveal His truth and love to you, to protect you from the enemy's attacks, and to fill you with His peace and joy. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
