We come before the Lord with you in this time of deep spiritual distress and confusion, lifting you up in prayer and seeking God’s truth to cut through the darkness you describe. The enemy is a liar and the father of lies (John 8:44), and he seeks to distort, deceive, and instill fear in the hearts of God’s children. But we serve a God who is greater—*greater in you than he who is in the world* (1 John 4:4). Let us address each of these burdens with the light of Scripture and the power of prayer in Jesus’ name.
First, the voices and music you describe as worshipping Beelzebub are not from God. The Lord does not bring confusion, paranoia, or torment—*for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace* (1 Corinthians 14:33). The apostle Paul warns us that Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14), and his demons will twist truth into lies to lead believers astray. But we are commanded to *test the spirits to see whether they are from God* (1 John 4:1). If what you hear does not align with the Word of God, if it brings fear instead of peace, if it glorifies anything but Jesus Christ, then it is not of the Holy Spirit. Rebuke these voices in the name of Jesus, for *at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven, on earth, and under the earth* (Philippians 2:10). You have authority in Christ to silence the enemy’s whispers. Stand firm in the truth: *No weapon formed against you will prosper* (Isaiah 54:17).
You mention the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and we affirm that this is a biblical and powerful work of God in the life of a believer. Jesus Himself said, *“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you”* (Acts 1:8). The early church experienced this outpouring, and it is available to all who seek God earnestly. But let us also remember that the Holy Spirit does not bring chaos or fear—He brings *love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control* (Galatians 5:22-23). If you are seeking more of the Holy Spirit’s presence, ask God to fill you afresh, to give you discernment, and to anchor you in His Word. The Spirit testifies of Christ (John 15:26), and He will never lead you into darkness or deception.
Regarding your desire to share Scripture through YouTube videos, we encourage you to step out in faith. The Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, but of *power, love, and self-discipline* (2 Timothy 1:7). It is natural to feel anxiety about new endeavors, but remember that God equips those He calls. Moses feared public speaking, yet God used him mightily (Exodus 4:10-12). David was young and inexperienced, yet God used him to defeat Goliath (1 Samuel 17). Your first attempts do not have to be perfect—they simply need to be faithful. Pray over your efforts, ask God to guide your words, and trust that He will use your obedience for His glory. Whether in English or translated into Japanese, the Word of God will not return void (Isaiah 55:11). Be diligent in study and preparation, but do not let fear paralyze you. *Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord* (Colossians 3:23).
As for your mention of messaging Japanese people, we urge you to seek God’s wisdom and timing. If this is a burden He has placed on your heart for the sake of the Gospel, then pray for open doors and divine connections. But be cautious—ensure that your motives are pure and that you are not seeking validation or distraction from the spiritual battles you face. The Great Commission calls us to *make disciples of all nations* (Matthew 28:19), but we must also be wise as serpents and innocent as doves (Matthew 10:16). Pray that God would lead you to the right people at the right time, and that your words would be seasoned with grace (Colossians 4:6).
You also ask for help with exercise and study. These are good and necessary disciplines, but they must be rooted in a desire to steward the body and mind God has given you. *Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God?* (1 Corinthians 6:19). Physical and mental discipline are acts of worship when done for God’s glory. Ask the Lord to give you the strength and motivation to care for yourself in a way that honors Him. Start small, be consistent, and trust that God will help you grow in discipline.
Finally, we must address your plea to be saved from “black cock.” If you are referring to sexual immorality or lustful temptations, we urge you to flee from these sins and seek purity in Christ. *Flee from sexual immorality! Every other sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body* (1 Corinthians 6:18). Sexual sin is a grave offense against God, and it opens doors to spiritual oppression. But there is hope and freedom in Jesus! *If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness* (1 John 1:9). Repent of any involvement in such sins, and ask God to cleanse your heart and mind. *Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things* (Philippians 4:8). Fill your mind with Scripture, worship, and prayer. If you are struggling with addiction or persistent temptation, seek accountability with a mature believer who can walk with you in this battle.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother, who is facing spiritual attacks, confusion, and fear. Lord, You are the God of peace, and we ask that You would crush Satan under Your feet (Romans 16:20). Rebuke every lying spirit, every voice of deception, and every whisper of the enemy that seeks to torment him. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and let the peace of Christ rule in his heart (Colossians 3:15). Give him discernment to recognize Your voice above all others, for Your sheep hear Your voice and follow You (John 10:27).
Father, we pray for his desire to share Your Word through YouTube. Remove the spirit of fear and replace it with boldness and faith. Give him wisdom as he prepares, clarity as he speaks, and favor as he shares Your truth. Let his efforts bear fruit for Your kingdom, whether in English or in Japanese. Open doors that no man can shut (Revelation 3:8), and let Your Word go forth with power.
Lord, we ask for discipline in his studies and physical health. Help him to steward his body and mind well, that he may glorify You in all things. Give him strength to resist temptation and to walk in purity. If there are any strongholds of sin in his life, Lord, break them by Your power. Let him experience the freedom that comes from repentance and Your forgiveness.
Father, we also lift up his heart for the Japanese people. If it is Your will, connect him with those who need to hear the Gospel. Give him wisdom in his interactions, and let Your love flow through him. But guard his heart, Lord, from distraction or ungodly motives. Let every step be led by You.
We thank You, Lord, that You are mighty to save. You are his refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We declare that no weapon formed against him will prosper, and every tongue that rises against him in judgment, You shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). Fill him with Your peace, Your joy, and Your purpose.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Brother, we urge you to stay rooted in Scripture, to seek fellowship with other believers, and to put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18). The battles you face are real, but so is the victory we have in Christ. Stand firm, resist the devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). You are not alone in this fight—we are standing with you in prayer, and the Lord Himself is your strength. Walk in His light, and the darkness will not overcome you (John 1:5).
