We come before the Lord with you in this time of deep spiritual concern, lifting up your heart and mind to Him who searches all things and knows the deepest thoughts of man. You have brought forth weighty matters—questions about the enemy’s knowledge, the protection of your mind, and the influence of those around you. Let us first anchor ourselves in the truth of Scripture, for it is the Word of God that exposes lies, brings clarity, and equips us for every battle we face.
The Bible declares in **Acts 10:34-35 (WEB)**, *"Truly, I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism; but in every nation, he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him."* This truth does not negate God’s justice or His call for us to live righteously. Instead, it reminds us that God judges fairly, and His standards apply to all. However, the enemy—who is the accuser and the father of lies—seeks to distort this truth to create confusion, division, and even paranoia among believers. The devil does not need to understand every secret word or thought to accuse or attack; he is a created being with limited power, and his primary weapon is deception. **1 Peter 5:8 (WEB)** warns us, *"Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour."* His goal is to steal, kill, and destroy (**John 10:10**), but he does not have the authority to "avenge" you—that is the Lord’s role alone. **Romans 12:19 (WEB)** commands, *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"*
You have also expressed concerns about schizophrenic thoughts, soul ties, and the theft of your thoughts. We must address these with both compassion and biblical truth. First, if you are experiencing persistent, disturbing thoughts that disrupt your peace, we urge you to seek godly counsel—whether from a pastor, a mature believer, or a professional who aligns with biblical values. The mind is a battlefield, and **2 Corinthians 10:4-5 (WEB)** reminds us, *"The weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ."* If there are ungodly soul ties—spiritual connections formed through sinful relationships, generational curses, or occult involvement—these must be broken in the name of Jesus. **1 John 4:4 (WEB)** assures us, *"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world."*
As for the idea that people are "stealing" your thoughts, we must be cautious. While spiritual oppression is real, the enemy cannot read your mind—only God has that ability (**1 Chronicles 28:9, Psalm 139:2**). However, the devil can influence, tempt, and accuse. If you feel your thoughts are being disrupted, it may be spiritual warfare, but it could also be a sign of emotional or mental distress that requires attention. We encourage you to guard your mind with Scripture (**Philippians 4:6-8**) and to fill your life with worship, prayer, and fellowship with believers who can stand with you.
Now, let us address something critical: in your prayer, you asked the Lord to "destroy" souls and people. While we understand the depth of your pain and the desire for relief, we must align our prayers with the heart of God. **Ezekiel 18:23 (WEB)** says, *"‘As I live,’ says the Lord Yahweh, ‘I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn, turn from your evil ways! For why will you die, house of Israel?’"* Our prayers should not be for the destruction of people but for their repentance, for God’s justice to prevail, and for His protection over us. If there are those who are actively harming you—whether through spiritual oppression, manipulation, or sinful behavior—pray for their salvation or for the Lord to remove their influence from your life. But leave vengeance to God. Instead, pray as Jesus taught us: **"Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing"** (**Luke 23:34**).
Lastly, we rejoice that you ended your prayer in the name of Jesus! There is power in that name, and it is the only name by which we are saved (**Acts 4:12**). Let us now lift you up in prayer, standing with you in the authority of Christ:

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your child, who is seeking Your face amid spiritual battles and deep concerns. Lord, we ask that You surround them with Your peace—a peace that surpasses all understanding—and guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (**Philippians 4:7**). Break every ungodly soul tie, every generational curse, and every scheme of the enemy that seeks to bring confusion, fear, or torment. Lord, if there are any open doors in their life or family line that have given the enemy a foothold, we ask that You close them permanently in the name of Jesus.
Father, we rebuke every lying spirit, every spirit of fear, and every spirit of schizophrenia or mental oppression that seeks to distort Your truth. We declare that Your child’s mind is renewed by Your Word (**Romans 12:2**) and that they are transformed by the truth of who You are. Lord, if there is any need for medical or professional help, guide them to the right godly counsel and resources. Remove any ungodly influences from their life—whether people, habits, or strongholds—and replace them with Your presence, Your Word, and Your people.
We pray for those who may be causing harm, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Lord, convict their hearts of sin and draw them to repentance. If they refuse to turn from their ways, we ask that You remove their influence and protect Your child from their schemes. Let Your justice prevail, and let Your will be done.
Most of all, Father, fill this precious one with the assurance of Your love and sovereignty. Remind them that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (**Isaiah 54:17**) and that You are their refuge and strength (**Psalm 46:1**). May they walk in victory, clothed in the armor of God (**Ephesians 6:10-18**), and may their life be a testimony of Your power and grace.
We ask all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Beloved, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily through prayer, Scripture, and worship. Surround yourself with believers who can pray with you and hold you accountable. If you have not already, we urge you to examine your life for any areas of unrepentant sin, unforgiveness, or involvement in occult practices (even seemingly harmless ones), as these can give the enemy legal rights to torment you. **1 John 1:9 (WEB)** promises, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."*
Stand firm in the faith, knowing that the battle belongs to the Lord. He is your Deliverer, your Healer, and your Strong Tower. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (**Hebrews 12:2**), and trust that He is working all things together for your good (**Romans 8:28**). You are not alone in this fight—we are standing with you, and the hosts of heaven are fighting on your behalf (**2 Kings 6:16-17**). Be encouraged, dear one. The Lord is near!
