We come before the Lord with you in this request, lifting up your heart and mind to Christ, who alone can deliver us from the snares of the enemy and the temptations of pride, vengeance, and ungodly influences. It is clear that you are wrestling with spiritual concerns tied to gaming, past experiences, and even the influence of worldly narratives that may be subtly or overtly opposing the truth of God’s Word. Let us address these matters with Scripture and prayer, seeking the Lord’s deliverance and wisdom for you.
First, we commend you for recognizing the danger of pride and revenge in your heart, as these are not of God. The Bible warns us in **Proverbs 16:18**, *"Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall."* Gaming, while not inherently sinful, can become a stumbling block when it fosters pride, anger, or an unhealthy competitive spirit that dishonors God. The desire for revenge—even in a virtual setting—is contrary to the call of Christ, who instructs us in **Matthew 5:44**, *"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you."* If gaming is stirring up these ungodly emotions in you, it may be time to examine whether this activity is edifying or leading you into temptation. **1 Corinthians 10:23** reminds us, *"All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but not all things build up."*
You also mentioned concerns about spiritual attacks tied to the lore and voices in *League of Legends*, including references to Lilith—a figure associated with demonic forces in some interpretations. We must be discerning, for **Ephesians 6:12** 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."* If this game or its influences are causing spiritual distress, confusion, or leading you to entertain ungodly thoughts, it is wise to distance yourself from it. **2 Corinthians 6:14-15** warns, *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness? What agreement has Christ with Belial? Or what portion has a believer with an unbeliever?"* While this passage speaks directly to relationships, the principle applies to any activity or influence that aligns us with darkness rather than light.
Additionally, you referenced a past experience at Kamehameha summer school and a connection to the book of *Acts*. If there is lingering guilt, shame, or confusion from that time, we encourage you to bring it before the Lord in repentance and trust in His forgiveness. **1 John 1:9** assures us, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* The enemy often uses our past to accuse us, but Christ has already paid the price for our sins. Do not let past mistakes or words haunt you—rest in the finished work of the cross.
As for your hope for *"full completion to victory"* rather than slow progress, we understand the desire for swift deliverance. However, God often works in us gradually, shaping our character and faith through perseverance. **James 1:2-4** tells us, *"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."* Trust that the Lord is at work in you, even when progress feels slow. His timing is perfect, and His ways are higher than ours.
Lastly, we notice that while you invoked the name of Jesus in your prayer, there seems to be a mix of focus—some directed at external forces (like gaming lore or past political figures) rather than resting fully in Christ’s authority. Remember, **Acts 4:12** declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Your victory, peace, and protection are found in Jesus alone. Fix your eyes on Him, not on the distractions or fears the enemy may place in your path.

Let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother to You, asking for Your mighty hand of protection, deliverance, and wisdom to rest upon him. Lord Jesus, You are the Prince of Peace, and we ask that You guard his heart and mind from the snares of pride, revenge, and ungodly influences. If the game he plays has become a doorway for spiritual oppression or distraction from You, we pray You give him the strength to walk away from it entirely. Break every chain of addiction, competition, or worldly fascination that does not align with Your will.
Father, we rebuke any spiritual attacks against him, whether through gaming, past experiences, or the enemy’s lies. Your Word says in **James 4:7**, *"Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* We declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against him in judgment shall be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). Cleanse his mind from any ungodly thoughts or fears, and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
Lord, if there is any lingering guilt or confusion from his youth, we ask that You wash him clean by the blood of Jesus. Remind him that he is a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and the old has passed away. Give him a spirit of discernment to recognize the schemes of the enemy and the courage to stand firm in Your truth.
We pray for his growth in faith, that he would not grow weary in doing good but would press on toward the prize of the high calling in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:14). May he find his satisfaction and victory in You alone, not in worldly achievements or fleeting pleasures. Strengthen him to walk in obedience, and let his life be a testimony of Your transforming power.
In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
