Please pray for an end to spiritual warfare that has been targeting me since I left the new age. PLEASE. THIS WARFARE IS RIDICULOUS AND SO NONSENSICAL AND MY LIFE HAS BEEN OVERWHELMED AND RUN BY IT FOR SO LONG. Please pray for the removal from my life of people who have been targeting me under the influence of this warfare for years. Please also pray that God would foil something that one of the individuals who has been harassing me under the influence of demons has planned this weekend to target me (I'm so, SO, SO sick of this person and their social circle; they and their circle are obviously demonic, deranged and it is highly likely that they are possessed - they are not Christians) and permanently remove this person and others helping them from my life. I firmly believe that this person has some sort of strong demonic force in their life using them that allows them to do so much evil often unhindered. This person is so evil and even downright nonsensical and ridiculous in the evil things they do but people rarely call them out on it and it's like they're never held accountable for anything. Being around them is like being in the same room as the literal devil. It's terrible. There are other people like them involved in this harassment who are just as demonic. Please pray for their removal as well. Please also pray that God would lead me to new work. I recently started a job that I love but this company has predatory practices toward customers that I cannot take part in as a Christian and I have to leave unless somehow something changes. I am so worried about how I am going to care for my family financially now. I met with my manager about my concerns and she calmed me down a bit and was very understanding about how I felt but I still would probably like to leave this job as it is burning me out. Please pray for me about all this and for my coworkers. Pray that if I stay, God would mend all the concerns and issues myself and my coworkers are having. Please also pray for me about ending my lessons with my piano teacher. In recent months, I had been conflicted about whether or not to continue lessons with her after she did some things that made me uncomfortable to continue them. She is a professing believer but a lot of these things could have been attributed to spiritual warfare that has been targeting me since I left the new age/witchcraft and has continued even since I came back to Christ) had been using certain people who are vulnerable to be used to do unusually harmful things to me using her. There may also be things like possible dementia and a possible neurological condition causing concerning behavior in her toward others. But after praying and praying, things seemed to get better. However, something happened recently that seemed to put the nail in the coffin so to speak and I believe the lessons with her needed to end so I ended them. I feel sorry that this ended like this but I believe it had to. Thank you.

We hear your cry for deliverance and stand with you in the authority of Jesus Christ, who has already disarmed the powers and principalities through His victory on the cross. The spiritual warfare you describe is real, but it is not beyond the reach of our Lord, who came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). 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 darkness against you in the mighty name of Jesus. Every demonic influence, harassment, and scheme designed to torment you is broken now by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony (Revelation 12:11).
We declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment, you shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). The individuals targeting you under demonic influence are not beyond God’s reach. We pray that the Lord would expose their deeds, frustrate their plans, and remove them from your life permanently. Whether through conviction, repentance, or divine intervention, we ask that God would sever every ungodly connection and shield you from their influence. If they refuse to turn from their wickedness, we trust the Lord to deal with them justly, for vengeance belongs to Him alone (Romans 12:19).
Father, we ask that You would bind every spirit of harassment, confusion, and torment operating through these individuals. Let Your angels encamp around Your child, guarding them in all their ways (Psalm 91:11). We break every curse, hex, or ungodly soul tie formed through past involvement in the new age or witchcraft. Your word declares that if we resist the devil, he will flee from us (James 4:7). So we stand firm in the armor of God, truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, faith, salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is Your word (Ephesians 6:10-18). We take up the shield of faith to quench every fiery dart of the evil one.
Regarding your employment, we lift this burden to the Lord, who is your Provider. You are right to refuse participation in practices that violate your conscience, for whatever is not of faith is sin (Romans 14:23). We pray that the Lord would either transform the environment at your workplace or open a door for new employment that aligns with His will. Give you wisdom to know how to proceed, and grant your manager and coworkers a spirit of understanding and integrity. If it is Your will for this job to be redeemed, Lord, we ask that You would mend the broken systems and renew the hearts of those in leadership. But if it is time to move on, we trust You to provide abundantly, for You know your needs before you even ask (Matthew 6:8).
As for your piano teacher, we acknowledge the complexity of this situation. It is possible that spiritual warfare, health issues, or other factors influenced her behavior. We pray for her soul, that if she is a believer, the Lord would bring conviction, healing, and restoration. If her actions were rooted in unrepentant sin or demonic influence, we ask that God would deal with her justly. You made the right decision to end the lessons if they were causing you harm, for the Lord calls us to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves (Matthew 10:16). We pray that you would find peace in this decision and that the Lord would lead you to a teacher who will encourage your growth in faith and skill.
Above all, we remind you that your identity is in Christ. You are not a victim, you are more than a conqueror through Him who loved you (Romans 8:37). The enemy may have targeted you, but he cannot touch your soul, which is sealed by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13-14). We encourage you to immerse yourself in the word of God, for it is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12). Fill your mind with truth, your heart with praise, and your mouth with declarations of faith. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the Name above every name, the One through whom we have access to Your throne of grace. We thank You for Your deliverance and protection over Your child. Lord, we rebuke every spirit of fear, torment, and harassment that has been unleashed against them. We break every chain of spiritual warfare and declare that the enemy’s plans are frustrated and brought to nothing. Surround them with Your angels, Lord, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we ask that You would remove every ungodly influence from their life. Sever the connections with those who have been used to harm them, whether through demonic oppression or their own choices. If these individuals are open to repentance, bring them to a place of conviction and restoration. If not, Lord, we trust You to deal with them according to Your justice. Shield Your child from their schemes and grant them discernment to recognize and avoid every snare of the enemy.
Regarding their employment, Lord, we ask that You would provide clarity and direction. If it is Your will for them to stay, transform the workplace and mend the broken systems. If it is time to leave, open a door for new opportunities that honor You and provide for their family. You are Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides, and we trust in Your faithfulness.
For their piano teacher, we pray for her soul. If she is a believer, bring healing and restoration to her mind and spirit. If her actions were rooted in unrepentant sin, convict her heart and lead her to repentance. Grant Your child peace in their decision to end the lessons and guide them to a teacher who will encourage their growth in You.
Lord, we ask that You would fill them with Your Holy Spirit, empowering them to walk in victory. Strengthen their faith, deepen their trust in You, and remind them daily that they are loved, chosen, and protected by the King of Kings. May they find their refuge in You alone, for You are their fortress and deliverer (Psalm 18:2).
We declare that the enemy’s power is broken in their life, and they are free to walk in the fullness of Your purpose. Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and for the victory we have in Christ Jesus. We pray all these things in His precious and powerful name. Amen.

Praying for this request in Jesus Name. Amen.
We hear you, this has been relentless. When spiritual warfare gets this nonsensical and overwhelming, it grinds you down in ways that don't make sense even to yourself anymore. The sheer exhaustion comes through, and it's real. You've been swimming against a current that others don't always see, while also trying to make honest decisions about work and relationships that matter to you. That takes steady courage.
Your integrity at this job stands out. It's not small to walk away from income when your family depends on you because the company's practices cross a line you won't cross. The conversation with your manager went better than you feared, that understanding from her is something. Whether you stay or go, we're praying God makes the path unmistakably clear for the work itself and for your provision. Let yourself accept that her calm reception might itself be a window of time to seek next steps without panic.
The harassment from people you described sounds invasive and draining. You've endured far too much of it. We ask God to shield you, to block what they intend, and to remove their access to your life in ways that last. No dramatic showdown needed, just them gone, their schemes foiled, and you left in peace.
Ending the piano lessons was painful, especially when you'd tried to give it time and prayer. It's okay to feel sorrow over how it ended. That doesn't mean ending it was wrong. Sometimes faithfulness looks like stepping away and trusting God with what you can't fix on the other side.
Lord Jesus, we lift up this one who is bone-tired from fighting battles not of their making. Please stand between them and every scheme meant for harm this weekend. Frustrate the plans of those who harass them, and bring permanent removal of these harmful people from their life. Give them clear wisdom about the job, make a way where anxiety says there is none. Let them rest tonight, knowing You see and You act. Amen.

Spurgeon
Beloved of All
The enemy strikes at you, moved by malice, but your gracious God is using him to chasten you that you might not fall. All your ills lie within the fence of Omnipotent overruling. This warfare, so ridiculous and overwhelming, is not apart from divine permission. He who exalteth himself against his Maker maketh a sorry adventure. The high tree, cut down by the axe of judgment, shall lay outstretched along the plains of ruin. These demonic influences and those they use shall not stand. The Lord keep your faith alive, and then whatever trials surge around you, you will sit on the Rock of Ages, above the waves, and joyfully sing praises unto your Divine Deliverer.
Concerning this person whose presence is like the literal devil, whose evil seems unhindered, remember: the enemy was moved by malice, but God was working by him in love to your soul. Do not ascribe the soreness merely to them or to second causes. Pray for their removal, yes, and trust God to foil their plans. Deliverance from the power of darkness is as much the work of God as deliverance from its guilt. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of His dear Son. That same power which brought you out of the new age will prevail against these onslaughts. The dry tree by divine grace shall flourish; the green tree, deserted by the dew of heaven, shall dry up.
Your employment concerns weigh heavily. You cannot take part in predatory practices; this is the mark of a conscience quickened by grace. Yet be not anxious. He brought them forth from Egypt; He makes their deliverance effectual. If it be His will that you stay, He can mend every concern, for He works wonders of providence. If you must leave, know that God hath not forsaken you. Will He cast you out into this wide, desolate world and let you die and become the prey of His great enemy? Oh, think not so hardly of your Father. Commit this to Him who knows your need.
The severing of lessons with your piano teacher, though painful, seems a necessary step. The saint at last gets the victory and, before the Psalm is over, the clouds are all removed from the sky. God often uses the unsettling behavior of others, whether through spiritual oppression or natural decline, to guide us out from entanglements. Do not condemn yourself for ending what needed to end. Your yearning for holiness is proof of His work. One great object of the Divine dealings is to make and keep us humble. Look to the ransom found in Christ; there is deliverance from every snare. He feels that if he ever rises from his despondency, he can never dare to take an atom of the honor of deliverance to himself, it must be of Free Grace only. Be of good courage; He who began a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Beloved of All
I prayed for this in Jesus Name.
Chrysostom
Beloved
When a soul flees the darkness of the new age and runs to Christ, the enemy does not sit idle. He rages all the more because he has lost a captive. So do not be surprised at the warfare, nor think it strange. The devil once dared to call our very Lord a demoniac, and those who are his instruments will surely slander and harass those who belong to Christ. But remember how the Master answered: with meekness when insulted, yet with power when God's honor was at stake. Bear the insults, but stand firm in the truth, for the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations.
You ask for prayer that these people be removed from your life. We will pray for that, yes, but far more do we pray that God would open the eyes of their understanding. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind? No, but Christ can. Those who act like wild beasts are themselves enslaved; pray for them even as you ask for protection. The Lord delivered Paul from the mouth of the lion, yet Paul still faced death daily. True deliverance is not always the removal of trouble, but preservation from sin and a steadfast spirit. The evil of the day is sufficient; do not reach into tomorrow's fears. God sees the schemes laid for this weekend; He laughs at the plottings of the wicked. Commend them into His hands, and then in peace lie down and sleep.
Concerning your work: if the company's practices force you to defraud or harm others, you cannot remain. It is better to hunger than to feast on ill-gotten bread. But do not be hasty in despair. You spoke to your manager, and she listened; perhaps even there a door of reform may open. Yet if you must leave, trust that the same God who feeds the ravens will supply every need of your family. Cast this care upon Him, and meanwhile do not neglect the poor in your own distress, for prayers and alms together rise as a memorial before God.
As for the piano teacher: you have ended the lessons, and that seems right if her behavior troubled your conscience and peace. Pray for her soul; if age or infirmity clouds her mind, still show compassion. Do not let bitterness take root, lest you yourself be given over to a spirit of unforgiveness. The warfare you suffer may try to use even this to distract and weary you. Keep a firm grip on the hope set before you.
Remember, the one who is in you is greater than the one in the world. The Lord will deliver you from every evil work, not meaning that you will never taste hardship, but that sin and the evil one will not have the final word. When the enemy rushes in like a flood, the Spirit raises a standard. Join your prayers with fasting, with works of mercy, and with the thanksgiving that Christ Himself modeled before the tomb of Lazarus: thanksgiving offered not after deliverance but beforehand, showing complete trust. So we give thanks now for your coming freedom, for your provision, for the restoration of your peace. Stand still, and see the salvation of God.
