We come before you with heavy hearts, lifting up this brother in Christ who is clearly in deep spiritual distress and torment. The enemy has sought to entangle him in confusion, fear, and even thoughts of self-destruction, but we know that the Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control (2 Timothy 1:7). We must first address the grave concern in this request—the mention of suicide. The Word of God is clear that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, and we are not our own (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Suicide is a permanent solution to temporary struggles, and it is a direct attack against the gift of life that God has given. The Lord alone numbers our days (Psalm 139:16), and we are called to trust Him in all things, even in our deepest pain. To even entertain such a thought is to give the enemy a foothold, and we must resist him firmly in the name of Jesus.
We also notice that while this request mentions Jesus Christ multiple times, there is a deep sense of spiritual oppression and confusion that must be addressed. The enemy has twisted thoughts, memories, and even well-intentioned actions into sources of torment. But we declare that Jesus is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6), and He has not called us to live in bondage to fear, superstition, or condemnation. The Scriptures tell us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1). If you have repented and turned to Him, you are forgiven, and the enemy has no right to accuse you or drag up the past. The blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7), and we must stand firm in that truth.
The mention of past struggles with Adderall, psychosis, and the lingering effects of those experiences reveals that there may be unresolved spiritual and possibly even physical battles. We urge you to seek godly counsel, whether from a pastor, mature believer, or even professional help if needed, to address these wounds. The Lord can restore your mind and bring peace where there has been chaos. Philippians 4:6-7 says, *"In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."* You do not have to carry this burden alone.
We also see a pattern of fixating on past interactions, conversations, and even trivial details—like a barbell, a box of wine, or a mountain hike—as if they carry some spiritual weight or curse. But the Word of God tells us in Colossians 2:13-15, *"You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh. He made you alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us. He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross. Having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it."* Jesus has already disarmed every spiritual force that seeks to accuse or oppress you. You do not need to fear these things any longer.
There is also a mention of jealousy, financial struggles, and a sense of being "cursed" by generosity. But the Bible tells us that God loves a cheerful giver (2 Corinthians 9:7), and if your giving was done with a pure heart, the Lord will provide for your needs. However, if there was a wrong motive—such as trying to "earn" God's favor or manipulate outcomes—then repentance and realignment with Scripture is needed. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, *"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* The Lord is your provider, not your past mistakes or the opinions of others.
As for the spiritual vexation mentioned—whether from people, stories, or even prayer boards—we must remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers (Ephesians 6:12). We put on the full armor of God and stand firm, knowing that greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). If there are ungodly soul ties or spiritual connections from past interactions, we break them now in the name of Jesus. Acts 19:18-19 shows us that even new believers in Ephesus brought their occult items and burned them publicly, breaking free from spiritual bondage. If there is anything in your life—objects, habits, or relationships—that has opened a door to oppression, it must be renounced and removed.
Finally, we address the repetition of "you are loved" from prayer boards. While it is true that God loves you (John 3:16), the enemy can twist even good truths into sources of confusion if we are not grounded in the Word. The love of God is not a vague sentiment—it is demonstrated through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. If these words have become a source of torment rather than comfort, we ask the Lord to replace confusion with the solid truth of His Word. Romans 8:38-39 declares, *"For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God’s love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."*
Now, let us pray together for this brother:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this Your child who is under heavy spiritual attack. Lord, we break every chain of fear, confusion, and torment that the enemy has placed upon him. We declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and every tongue that rises against him in judgment shall be condemned. Father, we ask that You would renew his mind (Romans 12:2) and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Lord, if there are any ungodly soul ties, spiritual connections, or curses that have been spoken over him—whether by his own words or the words of others—we break them now in the name of Jesus. We command every spirit of jealousy, fear, and death to flee from him and never return.
Lord, we ask that You would surround him with Your angels (Psalm 91:11) and protect him from every scheme of the enemy. If there are any areas of his life where he has given the enemy a foothold—whether through substance use, ungodly relationships, or unwise decisions—we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Father, we pray that You would restore to him the joy of Your salvation (Psalm 51:12) and fill him with a fresh outpouring of Your Holy Spirit. Give him discernment to recognize the enemy’s lies and the strength to stand firm in Your truth.
We rebuke the spirit of suicide that has whispered destruction to him. Lord, You alone are the author of life, and we declare that he will live and not die, to proclaim the works of the Lord (Psalm 118:17). Fill him with hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11), and let him know that You have plans for his welfare, not for evil.
Father, we also pray for godly wisdom and counsel to surround him. If he needs medical or professional help, lead him to the right people who can support him in a way that honors You. Lord, we ask that You would break the power of every memory, every word, and every interaction that the enemy has used to torment him. Let him walk in freedom, knowing that he is a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17) and that the old has passed away.
We thank You, Lord, that You are faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). We ask that You would fill him with Your love, Your truth, and Your peace. Let him rest in the knowledge that he is Your beloved child, and that nothing can separate him from Your love.
We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Brother, we urge you to immerse yourself in the Word of God daily. Meditate on Scriptures that speak of His love, protection, and victory over the enemy. Psalm 23, Psalm 91, and Ephesians 6 are excellent places to start. Surround yourself with believers who can pray with you and hold you accountable. If you have not already, we strongly encourage you to seek out a Bible-believing church where you can be discipled and find community. The Lord did not create us to walk this journey alone.
If you are struggling with thoughts of self-harm, please reach out to a trusted believer or a mental health professional immediately. The Lord wants to bring you healing, not harm. Cling to Him, and He will see you through this storm. You are not defined by your past, your fears, or the enemy’s lies. You are defined by Christ, and in Him, you are more than a conqueror (Romans 8:37). Stand firm, brother. The Lord is with you.
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.
