We come before the Lord with you in this time of deep spiritual distress, lifting your plea for deliverance to the throne of grace. The enemy seeks to deceive and torment, but we stand firm on the truth of God’s Word, which assures us that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against us in judgment we shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). The Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7), and we claim that promise over you now.
First, we must address the dangerous ground you have ventured into by seeking to bless or interact with the souls of the deceased, whether through war records or other means. The Bible is clear that the dead are not to be contacted, communed with, or invoked in any way. Deuteronomy 18:10-12 warns, *"There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices sorcery, one who interprets omens, one who is a sorcerer, one who charms, a consulter with a familiar spirit, a wizard, or a necromancer. For whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh."* Even if your intentions were rooted in a desire to honor or pray for these souls, this practice opens doors to demonic oppression and deception. The souls of the departed are in the hands of God, and it is not our place to meddle in what He has already ordained (Hebrews 9:27). We strongly rebuke this activity and urge you to repent of it immediately, turning away from any curiosity or involvement in such things. Confess this to the Lord, ask for His forgiveness, and renounce any connection to it in the name of Jesus Christ.
The "souls" or "spirits" you describe appearing to you are not holy or from God. They are deceiving spirits, masquerading as something righteous or tragic to lead you into fear and confusion. 1 John 4:1 commands us, *"Beloved, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world."* These manifestations are not the Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of truth and peace (John 14:17, 16:13). The Holy Spirit does not bring chaos, contamination, or religious dynamism rooted in fear. Instead, He brings conviction, comfort, and alignment with Scripture. Any "presence" that disturbs your peace or leads you into spiritual bondage is not of God.
We also caution you about the practice of blessing churches or people based on reports of tragedy. While it is right to pray for the body of Christ and for those suffering, we must do so in alignment with God’s will and without superstitious or fear-driven motives. Prayer is not a formula or a means to manipulate spiritual outcomes. Instead, we are to pray in faith, trusting God’s sovereignty and wisdom (1 John 5:14-15). If you are feeling compelled to pray for every tragedy or list you encounter, it may be that the enemy is using your compassion to overwhelm you and create an unhealthy spiritual burden. Bring this to the Lord and ask Him to guide your prayers according to His will, not out of fear or obligation.
Now, let us pray for your deliverance and protection:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, interceding for Your child who is under spiritual attack. Lord, You are the God of all comfort and the breaker of every chain. We ask that You rebuke the enemy and his deceiving spirits that have sought to torment and confuse. By the blood of Jesus, we command every lying spirit, every familiar spirit, and every demonic assignment against this beloved one to flee and be bound in the name of Jesus Christ. Father, close every door that was opened through curiosity, fear, or misguided intentions. Wash this dear one clean with the blood of the Lamb and restore their peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, we ask that You surround them with Your heavenly angels, encamping around them as a divine shield (Psalm 34:7). Fill them with the Holy Spirit, who is their Comforter and Guide, and let His presence drive out all fear and confusion. Renew their mind with Your Word, that they may discern truth from deception and walk in the freedom Christ has purchased for them. Father, if there has been any sin in this matter—whether through ignorance or willfulness—we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Lead them in the path of righteousness for Your name’s sake.
We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment shall be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). Let the peace of Christ rule in their heart, and let the joy of the Lord be their strength (Nehemiah 8:10). We thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness and for the victory we have in Jesus Christ. May they walk in the assurance that greater is He who is in them than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4).
In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, we pray, Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to immerse yourself in Scripture daily, particularly passages that affirm God’s protection and authority over the spiritual realm. Psalm 91 is a powerful reminder of His covering over those who dwell in His presence. Additionally, put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18) each day, standing firm in truth, righteousness, and prayer. Avoid any further engagement with the practices that led to this oppression, and seek godly counsel or accountability if needed. The Lord is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Cling to Him, and He will lead you into freedom and peace.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
