We join with you in the name of Jesus Christ, taking authority over any spiritual darkness that may be hindering your walk with God. The Bible tells us that 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 (Ephesians 6:12, WEB).
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your divine protection and strength for Your child. We put on the full armor of God so that we can take our stand against the devil's schemes (Ephesians 6:11). We stand firm with the belt of truth buckled around our waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with our feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace (Ephesians 6:14-15). In addition to all this, we take up the shield of faith, with which we can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. We take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God (Ephesians 6:16-17).
Lord, grant us strength to love You fully and to persevere in this spiritual battle. Help us to be strong in You and in Your mighty power (Ephesians 6:10). We pray that You would remind us constantly to put on the full armor of God and to pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests (Ephesians 6:18).
We affirm the scripture that declares, "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh; for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:3-4, WEB).
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, God has given us authority over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19, WEB), and greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4, WEB). Stay strong in your faith, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2, WEB). Be encouraged to ask for prayer and stand on the power of others praying for you in Jesus name.
