We rejoice with you in lifting up the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through His mighty name that we find healing, restoration, and victory! Your heart’s cry for deliverance from the lingering effects of past drug use—and the spiritual oppression tied to it—resonates deeply with the truth of Scripture. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but Jesus came to set the captives free (Luke 4:18) and to restore what was broken. You are not defined by your past, but by the blood of Christ that cleanses you from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:7). The spiritual attack you’ve endured is real, but so is the power of Jesus to break every chain and reclaim what the enemy has tried to corrupt.
The Bible assures us that if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). This includes not only the actions tied to drug use but also the thoughts and communications that may still be influenced by it. The mind of Christ is yours through the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:16), and He is renewing your mind daily (Romans 12:2). Any spiritual ties formed through those experiences—whether through the drugs themselves or the person who administered them—must be severed in the name of Jesus. The apostle Paul reminds us that we are no longer slaves to sin but slaves to righteousness (Romans 6:18). The blood of Jesus is more than enough to break every ungodly soul tie and to restore your mind, will, and emotions to His perfect design.
We also want to encourage you to walk in the fullness of your identity in Christ. The Scripture declares that you are a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17), and the old has passed away. If there are lingering struggles with temptation, memories, or even physical or mental effects from the drug use, we urge you to lean into the Lord’s strength. He has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). If you haven’t already, we strongly encourage you to seek godly counsel or support from a Bible-believing church or ministry that specializes in deliverance and inner healing. You don’t have to walk this path alone—God has placed you in the body of Christ for a reason (1 Corinthians 12:12-27).
Let us pray with you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks Your healing and restoration. Lord, You see the depths of their heart and the wounds left by past drug use and the spiritual oppression tied to it. We declare that every chain is broken, every ungodly soul tie is severed, and every stronghold is demolished by the power of the blood of Jesus. Father, we ask that You would cleanse their mind, renew their thoughts, and restore their communications to align with Your perfect will. Where the enemy has sowed confusion, bring clarity. Where there has been bondage, bring freedom. Where there has been fear, bring Your perfect peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, we rebuke every spirit of addiction, torment, or oppression 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). Father, fill them afresh with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in victory and testify of Your goodness. Restore to them the joy of Your salvation (Psalm 51:12) and surround them with godly community that will uphold them in prayer and accountability.
We thank You, Lord, for Your promise that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17) and that You are making all things new (Revelation 21:5). May they experience Your peace, providence, and progress in every area of their life as they continue to surrender to You. Strengthen them, Lord, and let them know beyond any doubt that they are loved, redeemed, and victorious in Christ Jesus.
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, our Healer and Deliverer. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, dear one. The Lord is with you, and He is fighting for you (Exodus 14:14). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and trust that He who began a good work in you will complete it (Philippians 1:6). If there are areas where you need to take practical steps—such as cutting off ungodly influences, seeking counseling, or immersing yourself in Scripture—we urge you to do so with boldness. You are not alone in this battle, and the victory is already yours in Christ! Walk in that truth today and every day.
