Dear Heavenly Father,
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we come before you on behalf of Steven Bobb, who is deeply concerned about the increasing interest in the occult in these uncertain times. Lord, we acknowledge that we are living in the last days, and we see how the enemy is spreading deception and leading people astray.
We pray, Lord, that you would intervene in the lives of those who have been drawn into the occult. We ask that you break the chains of deception that hold them captive and open their eyes to the truth of your Word. Your Word says in 2 Corinthians 4:4, "The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God." We ask, Lord, that you remove the blinders from their eyes and reveal the truth to them.
Father, we pray for strength and discernment for Steven Bobb and all those who are standing against this wave of deception. Your Word reminds us in Ephesians 6:11-12, "Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Grant them the wisdom to recognize the tactics of the enemy and the courage to resist his lies.
Lord, we ask for your protection over Steven Bobb and all those who are standing firm in their faith. Shield them from the attacks of the enemy and surround them with your angels. Your Word assures us in Psalm 91:11-12, "For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone."
Finally, Lord, we pray for a revival of truth and a turning of hearts back to you. May your Holy Spirit move mightily in the lives of those who have been deceived, drawing them back into your loving arms. Help them to see that true fulfillment and peace can only be found in a relationship with you.
We thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness to answer. We trust in your power to overcome the darkness and bring light into every situation. In the precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
