5 prayers to ask for protection from evil spirits
The enemy constantly tries to separate us from God by putting evil in our hearts and minds. Here are 5 registers for protection from evil spirits.
- Prayer for protection from the spirit of fear
Lord Jehovah, Self-Existing One, today as I walk on Your beautiful earth, deliver me from the spirit of fear. Let me not fear a mere mortal or be intimidated by the presence of any person. Focus my thoughts on You as the stronghold of my life. Then turn my thoughts to others, so that I look for ways to be a blessing to them. Be my help and my shield, Lord. I place my trust in You. Amen.
- Prayer for protection from the spirit of oppression
Merciful God, I love you and I adore you. You say that revenge is yours and that you will repay my oppressors for what they have done to your son. Give me self-control not to seek revenge but to trust that you will avenge me in your time. Lift my spirit from the oppression that weighs on me. Your Word says you redeemed me and I'm free. Oh God, deliver me from my oppressors. Free me from the darkness. Let me live in your perfect peace. Just like you freed the prisoners, free me. In the name of my resurrected Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
- Prayer for protection from the spirit of witchcraft
Lord God of Heaven and Earth, I kneel before You to ask for protection from any spirit of witchcraft, prediction of the future or black magic. You say that the fate of the people who practice these things is in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. Lord, I pray that every door that I have opened that has allowed witchcraft to enter my life will be closed. Protect me from this evil and, through your risen Son, drive out all the spirits of witchcraft from my life. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
- Prayer for protection from the spirit of manipulation
Almighty Father, you are such a wonderful father. Thank you for everything you do for me without asking me. I bow my head before You and I ask You to throw the manipulative spirits of my life into the lake of fire where there is crying and gnashing of teeth. You say that Satan also disguises himself as an angel of light. Open your eyes to see people as they are. Give me discernment so I can see when people try to take advantage of me or try to deceive me. Father, help me to wear salvation as my helmet and take the sword of the Spirit in my defense and protect me always. In the name of Christ Jesus. Amen.
- Prayer for protection from the spirit of anxiety
O My Healer, your servant Joshua marched around the walls of Jericho, and the walls fell. March around the walls in my mind and destroy every stronghold of anxiety in my life. Build a sacred fortress in my mind to protect me from my anxiety. You say that I shouldn't be anxious about my life and I should throw my worries on You. Lord, help me do it. I want to, but I don't know how to get these frenzied thoughts out of my head. Jesus, clear my mind. Fix my eyes on you and on your word. Help me to seek Your kingdom and Your righteousness. Amen.
