URGENT: Need Deliverance from Demonic Stronghold

Anonymous

Beloved of All
I am in a horrible demonic stronghold where something seems to be controlling me and I have no control over it. I work Monday thru Friday, and I should be using my weekends to clean my house, study my Bible, upskill, etc. My weekends are always wasted either in bed or on the computer going down one rabbit hole after another that I can't get out of. I am physically, mentally, and spiritually drained. I can barely function at work and can't afford a doctor. Please pray that I get delivered.
 
We hear your cry and we stand with you in this battle, for we know this struggle is real and we do not take it lightly. You have described feeling controlled, drained physically, mentally and spiritually, and unable to use your time for what is good and needful. We want you to know you are not alone and there is hope and power for deliverance, and that power is only in the name of Jesus Christ.

We notice your request asks for deliverance but does not mention the name of Jesus, and we must lovingly address this because it is central. There is no deliverance apart from Him. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God and authority over the enemy. Jesus said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And again in Acts 4:12 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. If you have not yet fully surrendered your life to Him, we urge you to confess your sin, believe that Jesus died and rose again for you, and call upon His name as Lord. It is His blood and His resurrection that gives us victory.

The Word tells us the nature of this fight. In Ephesians 6:12 our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Yet we are not left defenseless. In 1 John 4:4 we read 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. The enemy wants you to believe you have no control and that you are powerless, but that is a lie. God has given you through Christ authority and responsibility to resist.

We must also gently rebuke the stronghold and the passivity that has allowed it to grow. A stronghold is built when we allow patterns of thought and behavior to remain unchallenged. In 2 Corinthians 10:4 for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, 10:5 throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Spending weekends in bed or lost for hours going down rabbit holes on the computer is not just a habit, it is a foothold the enemy can use to keep you exhausted, isolated, and away from the Word and from stewardship of your home and gifts. We rebuke that spirit of heaviness, lethargy and confusion in Jesus name, and we also call you to active resistance. James 4:7 says Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Submission to God must come first, then active resistance. Deliverance is not passive, it requires you to choose to submit, to resist, and to walk it out daily.

We encourage you to put on the whole armor of God each day as described in Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. This means immersing yourself in truth, righteousness, the gospel, faith, salvation and the Word of God. We also encourage you to renew your mind, for Romans 12:2 says 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. Practically, this means establishing boundaries with the computer, setting a simple and achievable plan for your weekends, inviting light and accountability into your home, and choosing discipline over endless scrolling. In Ephesians 5:15 Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise, 5:16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. And in Proverbs 6:6 Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise. The Lord honors diligence in small things like cleaning your house and stewarding your talents as unto Him, for Colossians 3:23 says Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men.

For your exhaustion, we remember that God sees your labor Monday through Friday and your weariness. He promises in Matthew 11:28 Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. And in Isaiah 40:29 He gives power to the weak. He increases the strength of him who has no might. Also remember 2 Timothy 1:7 For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. Self-control is a fruit of the Spirit and a weapon against feeling out of control.

We lift you up now together in prayer.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our deliverer and our hope. We thank You that You hear this dear one who feels bound and drained and barely able to function. Lord, we confess that apart from You we can do nothing, and we ask for forgiveness for any open doors, for sloth, for time wasted, and for seeking escape in the computer rather than refuge in You. We ask You to wash this dear one in the blood of Jesus and fill them with Your Holy Spirit. In the name of Jesus Christ we rebuke every demonic stronghold, every spirit of oppression, heaviness, apathy, confusion and control that has tormented Your child. We command it to leave and to go to the place You appoint, for You have given us authority in Luke 10:19 Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you. Lord, break these chains and set this captive free indeed.

Father, restore strength to body, mind and spirit. Calm the anxious thoughts and bring sound sleep and clear mind. Teach this dear one to redeem the time, to establish healthy rhythms of rest, work, cleaning the home, studying Your Word, and growing in skills for Your glory. Help them to set limits on the computer, to bring every thought into captivity to Christ, and to walk in self-control by Your Spirit. Provide godly fellowship, a local church family and an accountability partner who can walk alongside them, and provide for their needs even when a doctor cannot be afforded, for You are Jehovah Jireh, our provider. Fill their weekends with purpose and peace instead of emptiness and wandering. Let Your Word be a lamp to their feet and fill their home with Your presence.

We pray this all in the victorious and only saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, amen.

We encourage you to continue to call upon the name of Jesus daily, to open your Bible even for a few verses each morning and evening, to pray aloud against the enemy, to fast as you are able, to keep your home in order as worship, and to seek out a Bible believing church where you can confess and be prayed for in person. If you have not yet done so, make a clear commitment to follow Jesus as Lord, for in Him you have already been given the victory in Romans 8:37 No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Keep resisting, keep submitting to God, and He will be faithful to deliver you and to renew your strength.
 
We hear how exhausting this season has been for you, working hard all week and then feeling stuck and drained on the weekends, wanting to use the time well but ending up in bed or lost online. It makes sense you would feel worn down physically, mentally and spiritually, and we are praying for you.

One thing we have seen help when everything feels like too much is to resist trying to fix the whole weekend at once. Instead of carrying the weight of cleaning the whole house or catching up on everything, it can be a kindness to choose one small, doable step ahead of time, like tidying one area for fifteen minutes Saturday morning or taking a brief walk and spending a few minutes in prayer, and letting that be enough for that day. A trusted friend, pastor or small group leader who knows you can also help you stay encouraged and not face the weekends alone.

Because you mentioned feeling so drained and struggling to function at work and not being able to afford a doctor, we gently encourage you to reach out to a medical professional or counselor if possible, even a low cost clinic or your church's care ministry, alongside prayer, so someone can walk with you in person.

Father, we lift our brother to You and ask for Your mercy and strength over him. Draw near to him, bring rest to his mind and body, clear a path forward one step at a time, and surround him with caring help. Lead him into Your peace and keep him close to You. In Jesus' name we pray, amen.
 
Your cry for deliverance has been heard and we have carried it before the Lord with earnest prayer, asking that He who is our stronghold in the day of trouble would show Himself to be your refuge and strength.

The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble, and He knows them that trust in Him. What you describe, that sense of being controlled and unable to escape, of being physically and mentally and spiritually drained, is a heavy burden, and we do not make light of it. Yet the word of God reminds us that salvation is of the Lord, and that whoever shall look out of self and look to Christ only shall find Him to be a strong tower. You may run into your Lord and be safe. He is not a temporary camp but a fortress intended to stand from generation to generation, defying the enemy and giving safety and perfect peace to those who hide in Him.

Deliverance is His work. As Israel did not share the honor of their deliverance with God but still gave hearty assent to His salvation, so we confess that He must bring us forth. He has found a ransom, for the King's own Son has borne the penalty of our iniquities, and He has invented the way of deliverance that we could never have thought of. If you feel you can do nothing and have no power in yourself to break these chains, that very confession puts you in the place where Free Grace can work. He feels that if he ever rises from his despondency, he can never dare to take an atom of the honor of deliverance to himself, it must be of Free Grace only.

At the same time, the Lord calls His people to live as soldiers under discipline, and it is well to count the cost. Our self will usually lies at the root of our greatest griefs, and we must learn to say to our own self love, Down, busy will, down proud spirit, and yield ourselves entirely up to the discipline of the Lord. The most watchful Christian sets Caution and Self examination at the helm and cries to God, Search me and know my heart. He examines his actions and his motives and passes his words and his thoughts in review.

You speak of weekends wasted in bed or going down one rabbit hole after another on the computer, while duties like keeping your house, studying your Bible, and improving the gifts God has given you are left undone. Scripture warns us of self neglect when it says, they made me the keeper of the vineyards but mine own vineyard have I not kept. To keep your own vineyard will require deliberate watchfulness. The garment of integrity and a life ordered under Christ is our defense against many assaults that drain us.

We would counsel you, as you look to Christ as your stronghold, to walk in practical discipline by His grace. Bring your weekends under rule before they begin. Seek the Lord first in His word and in prayer when you rise, asking Him to order your steps. Set simple, attainable tasks for the day and do them in the strength He supplies, whether it be cleaning your dwelling, opening the Scriptures, or laboring to upskill for your work. Put boundaries around the computer, for what begins as a moment of rest can become a snare that leaves you more weary. If possible, seek the fellowship of a faithful local church where you can walk openly with other believers who can encourage you and help you keep watch. And though you cannot afford a doctor at this time, steward the body God has given you with regular sleep, needful labor, and honest rest, trusting that He who made you knows your frame.

We are praying for you in this way:

O Lord our God, who is good and a stronghold in the day of trouble, look upon this weary one who feels bound and drained and scarcely able to function. Thou knowest them that trust in Thee. Bring deliverance, for salvation is of the Lord. Thou hast found a ransom in the blood of Thy Son, and we ask that this dear soul would run into Christ as into a strong tower and be safe. Break the power of every habit and temptation that entangles, and grant light and strength for each day's duty. Teach self examination and holy discipline, subdue self will, and give grace to keep the vineyard Thou hast entrusted. Restore strength of body and mind and spirit, and cause Thy peace to guard heart and thoughts through Christ Jesus. Make this deliverance effectual and attend it with enrichment, that there may be joy and usefulness in Thy service. In the name of Jesus our Redeemer we ask it, Amen.

Continue to look to Christ only, and to wait upon Him who abides forever the same, always a sure refuge for the needy. He will not shut His ear to those who seek Him, but will move His arm to work deliverance in His perfect time and way.
