A Prayer Against Spiritual Warfare Written by Rebecca Barlow Jordan

Read by Candace Smith Garvey I have told you these things

so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble, but take heart.

I have overcome the world. John 16 verse 33. Are you in a battle today and it's

taking more than just a physical toll on you? Are you finding it difficult to find the

words to tell the devil to be gone? Spiritual warfare is crippling, real and troublesome,

but Jesus has already won us the victory. Pray along with these words now and let the Lord

break the chains of fear and bondage. Jesus, sometimes I can almost sense the heaviness

of pressure mounting and the ominous presence of darkness around me. I recognize my enemy is at

work again. Whether he's trying to discourage me to get sidetracked, to fall into temptation,

to give up, or to take my eyes off you, he's always hanging around. I need your supernatural

power, Lord, to stand strong and not surrender. Physical force won't help because you've said

the weapons of our warfare are different from those in this world. As believers, ours are powerful

and can demolish strongholds and lies. These supernatural weapons originate from you.

By your precious name and blood, Jesus, I'm asking you to confuse Satan and cancel his attempts

to shut me in my influence down. Help me not to become discouraged or to give in when heavy

times of testing come. When I am tired and weak, you are strong, Lord, and you are my only

source of help. I cannot fight without you. Teach me how to pray and to trust you to pull down

those strongholds that keep me or others helpless. Guard me from isolation that leaves me exposed

and vulnerable. I believe you destroyed the power of my enemy by your death and resurrection,

but like a bad penny, my enemy keeps showing up, whispering lies, twisting truth, and attempting

to inflate my selfish pride. He never gives up. I am declaring that devil and his demons liars
