We come before you with a heart burdened by the many struggles and confusions you’ve shared, and we lift you up in prayer, seeking God’s truth, clarity, and deliverance for your life. First, we praise you for calling upon the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we find salvation, protection, and true peace. As Scripture declares, *"There is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your acknowledgment of Jesus is the foundation of all hope, and we stand with you in His mighty name.
Your mind and spirit are clearly under great distress, and we recognize that many of the things you’ve described—fears of curses, spiritual attacks, ghosts, and vexation—stem from a place of deep anxiety, confusion, and possibly even spiritual oppression. But let us remind you of what Scripture says: *"God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7, WEB). The enemy seeks to distort your perception of reality, to fill your mind with chaos, and to keep you bound in fear. However, *"the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4, WEB). You are not helpless, for Christ has already overcome the world.
First, we must address the spiritual dangers you’ve engaged with. You mentioned involvement with occult themes in games, conversations about Revelation with someone under the influence of drugs, and exposure to music and media that glorify dark spiritual forces like Baphomet and Satan. Scripture is clear: *"Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them"* (Ephesians 5:11, WEB). These things are not harmless; they open doors to spiritual influences that are not of God. We strongly urge you to turn away from all forms of occult entertainment, music, or media. *"Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, 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, WEB). Fill your mind with what honors God, not what invites darkness.
You also mentioned the use of antidepressants and Adderall, as well as past drug use. While medication can be a tool God uses to help us, we must be cautious about dependency or the idea that our peace comes from substances rather than from Christ. *"Don’t be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit"* (Ephesians 5:18, WEB). If medications are helping you function, that is well and good, but your ultimate healing and stability must come from the Lord. We encourage you to seek godly counsel—whether from a pastor, a Christian counselor, or a trusted believer—who can help you navigate these struggles with wisdom and prayer. If you are struggling with addiction or the lingering effects of drug use, we urge you to seek help and repentance. *"Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective"* (James 5:16, WEB).
Regarding your fears about curses, ghosts, or spiritual attacks, we must remind you that those who are in Christ Jesus are protected by His blood. *"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4, WEB). If you have placed your faith in Jesus, no curse can stand against you. However, if you have dabbled in sinful or occult practices, it is wise to repent and renounce those things in Jesus’ name. Let us pray together for your deliverance and protection:

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your child, who is seeking Your face amid great confusion and spiritual distress. Lord, we ask that You break every chain of fear, anxiety, and oppression that has taken hold of their mind. Rebuke every lying spirit that seeks to accuse, torment, or deceive them. We declare that *"no weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me,"* says Yahweh (Isaiah 54:17, WEB).
Father, we ask that You expose any darkness that has been invited in through games, music, drugs, or ungodly associations. We renounce every connection to the occult, every curse, and every spiritual stronghold in the name of Jesus Christ. We ask that You cleanse this home and this mind, filling both with Your Holy Spirit. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, we pray for clarity. If there are medical or mental health struggles at play, we ask that You guide them to the right help—godly counselors, doctors, or believers who can walk with them in wisdom. If there are unconfessed sins, convict their heart and lead them to repentance. If there are lies they have believed, replace them with Your truth.
We also lift up their struggles with relationships, isolation, and past mistakes. Father, heal the wounds of loneliness and regret. Surround them with believers who can encourage them in faith. If there is resentment or unforgiveness—whether toward themselves or others—we ask that You soften their heart and grant them the grace to forgive, just as You have forgiven us in Christ.
Finally, Lord, we pray for their walk with You. Draw them closer to Your Word. Let them find their identity not in games, achievements, or the opinions of others, but in You alone. Remind them that *"the joy of Yahweh is your strength"* (Nehemiah 8:10, WEB), and that Your plans for them are for good and not for evil, to give them a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11).
We thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness. We trust that You are at work, even in the midst of this storm. May Your light shine brightly in their life, driving out every shadow of fear and doubt. In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

Brother, we also want to encourage you to take practical steps toward freedom. Here are a few things we urge you to do:
1. **Renounce and Repent**: If you have engaged in occult practices, drug use, or any sin that may have opened doors to spiritual oppression, repent before the Lord. Verbally renounce those things in Jesus’ name and ask for His cleansing. *"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, WEB).
2. **Fill Your Mind with Scripture**: Replace the music, games, and media that have dark themes with the Word of God. Listen to worship music, read the Bible daily, and meditate on His promises. *"Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path"* (Psalm 119:105, WEB).
3. **Seek Fellowship**: Isolation can make spiritual battles feel overwhelming. Find a Bible-believing church where you can connect with other believers. *"Let’s consider how to provoke one another to love and good works, not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching"* (Hebrews 10:24-25, WEB).
4. **Guard Your Heart**: Be mindful of what you allow into your spirit. Avoid conversations or environments that glorify drugs, the occult, or ungodly behaviors. *"Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life"* (Proverbs 4:23, WEB).
5. **Pray Without Ceasing**: Stay in constant communication with the Lord. When fears or confusing thoughts arise, bring them to Him immediately. *"Don’t be anxious about anything, 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"* (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB).
Lastly, we want to address your mention of "religious attacks." True spiritual warfare comes from the enemy, not from God or His people. However, if you feel convicted by the Holy Spirit or corrected by fellow believers, that is not an attack—it is God’s love drawing you back to Him. *"For whom the Lord loves, he reproves; even as a father reproves the son in whom he delights"* (Proverbs 3:12, WEB). Do not confuse conviction with condemnation. The enemy condemns; the Holy Spirit convicts to bring repentance and restoration.
If you are feeling attacked because of past sins or failures, remember that *"there is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus"* (Romans 8:1, WEB). Jesus has already paid the price for your sins. Walk in that freedom.
We are standing with you in prayer, believing for your breakthrough. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. He is your deliverer, your healer, and your peace. *"The Lord is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?"* (Psalm 27:1, WEB). Stay strong in Him.
