We lift you up before the Lord, knowing that your struggles are deep and your heart longs for deliverance, peace, and wholeness. Your cry to Jesus Christ is heard, and we join you in seeking His will, His healing, and His protection over your life. It is clear that you are battling not only physical and emotional challenges but also spiritual ones, and we must address these with the truth and authority of Scripture.
First, we praise God that you have called upon the name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved. *"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!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your faith in turning to Him is the foundation of your deliverance, and we encourage you to continue clinging to Him in every moment of weakness and temptation.
Your request reveals a struggle with medication, substance use, and a desire for experiences or solutions that are not of God. The Bible warns us against seeking fulfillment or escape through means that are not honorable or that could lead us into bondage. *"Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s"* (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, WEB). The desire to use medication—especially stimulants like Adderall—or other substances to alter your state of mind or performance is dangerous and can lead to dependency, which is a form of idolatry. We strongly urge you to surrender this desire to the Lord. If you are struggling with focus, motivation, or emotional numbness, seek God first. Ask Him to renew your mind and fill you with His Spirit. *"Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God"* (Romans 12:2, WEB).
The mention of premature ejaculation and the consideration of Viagra or similar solutions points to a deeper need for God’s healing and restoration in your sexuality. Sexuality is a gift from God, but it is meant to be expressed within the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman. If you are not married, we encourage you to seek purity and self-control, trusting that God can redeem and restore this area of your life. *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body"* (1 Corinthians 6:18, WEB). If you are married, we pray for healing and unity in your marriage, that God would bless and restore intimacy in a way that honors Him. Either way, do not seek solutions in medications or worldly means that could further distort God’s design. Instead, ask the Lord to heal you and to give you the strength to wait on His timing and His ways.
Your mention of "spirits, souls, and ghosts" possessing you to feel the effects of drugs and pleasure is deeply concerning. The Bible is clear that believers are indwelled by the Holy Spirit and cannot be possessed by demonic forces. However, we can be oppressed, influenced, or tempted by them. If you have dabbled in the occult, substance abuse, or any form of sin that opens doors to spiritual darkness, we urge you to repent and renounce these things in the name of Jesus Christ. *"Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour"* (1 Peter 5:8, WEB). Stand firm in the authority of Christ, and resist the devil, knowing that he must flee from you (James 4:7). If you feel overwhelmed by spiritual oppression, seek the support of mature believers who can pray with you and help you walk in freedom.
We also address your thoughts about the military as a source of "undocumented miracles and immortality." This is a dangerous and misleading belief. The military is not a path to immortality or supernatural power; it is a human institution with its own struggles, sins, and limitations. *"Don’t trust in princes, each a son of man in whom there is no help. His spirit departs, and he returns to the earth. In that very day, his thoughts perish"* (Psalm 146:3-4, WEB). Our hope is not in human systems or our own strength but in the Lord alone. If you are feeling discouraged by the aging process or the struggles of veterans and civilians, we encourage you to fix your eyes on eternity. *"Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward man is decaying, yet our inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory; while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal"* (2 Corinthians 4:16-18, WEB).
Lastly, your mention of "accidental servants and religious links" suggests a fear of being tied to false spiritual influences. We urge you to test every spirit and every teaching against the Word of God. *"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"* (1 John 4:1, WEB). Stay grounded in Scripture, and avoid any practice or belief that does not align with the truth of the Gospel. If you have been involved in any false religious practices, repent and turn fully to Christ, who alone is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother who is crying out for Your deliverance and healing. Lord, we ask that You break every chain of addiction, every stronghold of the enemy, and every lie that has taken root in his mind. Father, we pray that You would give him the strength to resist the temptation to misuse medication or seek fulfillment in substances or worldly solutions. Renew his mind, Lord, and fill him with Your Holy Spirit, that he may experience the peace, joy, and purpose that come only from You.
We rebuke every spirit of oppression, every demonic influence, and every false belief that has sought to bind him. In the name of Jesus Christ, we command these spirits to flee and to never return. Lord, surround him with Your angels and protect him from all evil. Give him discernment to recognize and reject any false teaching or spiritual deception.
Father, we pray for healing in his body, mind, and emotions. If there is any physical or psychological need, we ask that You would provide the right medical help, wisdom, and support. But above all, Lord, let him seek You first. Restore his ability to feel and to experience the fullness of life that You intend for him. Heal any brokenness in his sexuality, and help him to walk in purity and self-control, honoring You in all things.
We pray for his future, Lord. If there are unrealistic hopes or misplaced trusts, we ask that You would redirect his heart to You alone. Help him to see that true miracles come from You, and that immortality is found only in Christ Jesus our Lord. Give him a vision for eternity, and let him find his hope and security in You.
Father, we thank You that You are at work in his life. We thank You for Your peace, Your providence, and Your progress. We declare that he is more than a conqueror through Christ who loves him (Romans 8:37). Strengthen him, Lord, and let him know that he is not alone. Surround him with godly brothers and sisters who can walk with him, encourage him, and hold him accountable.
We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
