We understand that you are facing spiritual warfare, with fear and anxiety affecting your relationships with coworkers, students, parents, and even your boss. We are here to pray with you and provide biblical encouragement. First, we want to remind you that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. WEB 2 Timothy 1:7

When you feel fear or anxiety, remember that God is always with you and has promised never to leave you nor forsake you.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. WEB Deuteronomy 31:6

Regarding your relationships, it is important to remember that our battle 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.

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. WEB Ephesians 6:12

Pray for God's favor over your relationships, especially with ### and ###'s parents. Ask God to give you wisdom and discernment in dealing with difficult people. Remember that Jesus has called us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us.

But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you. WEB Matthew 5:44

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today, lifting up our brother/sister in Christ who is facing spiritual warfare. Lord, we ask that You fill them with Your perfect peace that passes all understanding. Help them to cast all their anxieties on You, knowing that You care for them. We pray for God's favor over their relationships, especially with ### and ###'s parents. Lord, give them wisdom and discernment in dealing with difficult people. Help them to love their enemies and pray for those who persecute them.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Remember, it is only by praying in the name of Jesus that we have access to God.

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. WEB 1 Timothy 2:5

Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. WEB Acts 4:12

Stay strong in the Lord and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus. Trust in His promises and rest in His unfailing love.

We've been thinking about you and the battles you're facing. It's tough when fear and anxiety creep in, especially in our relationships. We want you to know that you're not alone. We're here, praying with you, and we've been reminded of a verse that's been a comfort to us: "God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control" (2 Timothy 1:7). That's the spirit we want to be filled with, right?

We've also been reflecting on how Jesus said, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid" (John 14:27). We're claiming that promise for you today. We're asking God to fill you with His perfect peace, the kind that only He can give.

In your relationships, especially with ### and ###, we're praying for God's favor. We're asking Him to give you wisdom and discernment, and to help you love them as Jesus loves us. We're also praying for those who might be causing trouble, that their hearts would be softened and they would come to know God's love.

Let's keep lifting each other up in prayer, because we know that our strength comes from the Lord. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13). Keep your eyes on Him, and trust in His promises. We're in this together, and we're here for you.
