Battle Prayer to Break Legal Rights of Demons
In the article we have in the Spiritual Warfare section of our site titled, “4 Levels of Spiritual Warfare Against Demonic Spirits,” I gave you the 4 basic levels in which demonic spirits can attack people – which includes all Christians.
This specific article will be dealing with the second level – which is when demons are allowed to attack as a result of a legal right given to them by the person they have targeted.
If by chance you have come across this article and have not read the above article on the 4 levels in which demonic spirits can move in for an attack – it would be my recommendation that you first read that article so that you can have a good, basic understanding of what these 4 levels are all about and how this second level fits into the big picture.
In this second level, demons will move in for an attack once they see a person committing a door-opening, hedge-breaking sin and transgression against the Lord. In this second level, it does not make any difference if this person is a Christian or nonbeliever. There are rules to the spiritual war games that are going on behind the scenes in the battle between God and the devil for all of our souls – and demons themselves have to abide by these rules.
In the above article, I gave you the verse from the Book of Job which shows that we apparently have some type of protective spiritual hedge surrounding us or else demons would be constantly attacking everyone and we would all be in a state of constant warfare with them.
What happens in the spiritual realm is that this hedge can be broken by a person if this person commits a heavier type of sin and transgression against the Lord. In that article, I gave you some of the heavier sins and transgressions against the Lord that could possibly break this hedge, thereby causing a hole to occur in it – thus giving the demons the opening and legal right to be able to start to come directly after you. For the purposes of this article, I will go ahead and re-state what some of those heavier sins and transgressions are.
As Christians, we can have absolutely nothing to do with any of the following areas:
- The occult
- False religions and cults
- Any part of the New Age Movement
- Any type of Satan worshipping group
- Any involvement with abortion or the abortion industry
- Abusing alcohol
- Doing any type of drugs – including pot
- Any type of extreme verbal and/or physical abuse on your mate or children
- Any type of promiscuous sexual lifestyle
- Any type of criminal activity
- Murder
- Bringing a cursed object into your home
All of the above areas are extreme forbidden areas with our Lord. He will not be putting up with any of His own entering in and engaging in some of these heavier sin areas.
If you do, and you do not pull out of it within a reasonable length of time, then God could pull back His hand of protection on you and your life, and you thus could end up with a big hole occurring in your protective hedge, thereby giving the demons the opening and legal right to be able to come directly after you.
All of the above activities are major door openers to the dark side, and demons just wait for people, especially Christians, to cross over into some of these realms – knowing full well that they will have the appropriate legal rights to move in for an all out attack if that person does not pull out of it within a reasonable period of time.
But you are first going to have to admit to God that you have sinned directly against Him by crossing over into some of these heavier forbidden areas to begin with.
If you can’t see and admit that you have been sinning directly against the Lord, and that you have been wrong by crossing over into some of these forbidden areas to begin with – then there will be no deliverance for you, and the demons will continue to have the appropriate legal rights to be able to stay attached to you, and they will then continue to tear you and your life to pieces.
To any of you who may have fallen into one or more of the above dark side areas and have drawn demons into your life as a result, and are really looking to be delivered from the bondage you now find yourself caught up in – this article will give you a good, basic, 5 step process on how to go about properly breaking the legal rights of the demons so that God can fully deliver you from their evil grip.
I will then give you a battle prayer that I had given to another woman who had drawn heavy demonic activity in her life as a result of crossing over into some of the above areas. This battle prayer will have all 5 of these steps properly incorporated into the prayer.
At the outset – you have one of two choices. You can either try the 5 steps I will give you below and attempt to do a self-deliverance on your own – or you can seek out the help and guidance from someone who is experienced with delivering people from demons.
God is raising up more people at this time who know how to do deliverances, so you might be able to find someone close to where you live at who can help you with this if you are too scared to try it on your own.
From the personal experiences I have had with this kind of deliverance, many of these deliverances can be done as a self-deliverance – where you go before God the Father on your own, follow the 5 steps I will give you below, and then verbally engage with the demons, telling them that they now have to leave you in the name of Jesus Christ once you have properly broken all of their legal rights before God the Father.
However, if after reading what these steps will entail, you still feel reluctant or too afraid to try this on your own, then the first thing that I would recommend is that you try and talk to your pastor if you belong to a church. Tell him what your problems are and see if he would be willing to work with you to get you delivered from these demons.
If he can’t or won’t help you for whatever his personal reasons may be, then ask him if there is anyone else in his church who is experienced and anointed to be able to handle this kind of deeper problem for you.
If there is no one at your church who is experienced and anointed to do deliverances, then I would ask your pastor if he knows anyone else from any of the other churches in your area who can do a deliverance. If no luck with this option, then I would get into the yellow pages and start calling all of the main Christian churches in your area, and ask if they have someone who knows how to do deliverances.
You may have to go into a seeking mode to find someone who will know how to do this. But do not give up on this, as God will guide you on this if you ask Him to help you find the right person who can get the job done for you.
For those of you who would like to try and handle this on your own as a self-deliverance – especially if you cannot find anyone locally to help you out – here are the 5 basic main steps that you will need to take in order to be able to get complete deliverance from these demons.
I will first list each one of these steps, one right after the other, so you can see exactly what you will have to do. Here are the 5 steps.
- The full surrender
- Confess each one of your sins before the Lord
- Renounce each one of your sins before the Lord
- Break the legal rights of the demons
- Verbally command the demons to now leave you in the name of Jesus Christ
Now I will go into further detail on what you will need to do with each one of these specific steps so you can get yourself set fully free from these demons.
1. The Full Surrender
The very first thing you are going to have to do is to be willing to come into a full surrender with the Lord. We have another article in our site in the Bible Basics section titled, “The Full Surrender.”
In this article, I explain to you exactly what this full surrender is all about, give you all of the verses from Scripture to back up what God is looking for in this full surrender, and then give you a good, simple, full surrender prayer that you can actually use to go before the God the Father to make this full surrender with Him.
The very first rule in spiritual warfare, before you can even begin to do battle with demonic spirits, is that you have to be walking and operating in a full surrender with the Lord. If you are not willing to come into this full surrender with the Lord where He will now be the One to take over the reigns of your life and lead your life into the direction that He will now want it to go in – then there will be no help and no deliverance from these demons.
You have been running your own show over all of the years and now you are in a big mess as a result of drawing these demons into your life. The only way out of it now is going to be God’s way – not your way! You will now have to fully surrender every single part of your life over to the Lord for His direction and handling. God will now be running your entire life from here on in, not you or anyone else in your life.
Here is the verse from the Bible that gives us this specific revelation:
“Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” (James 4:7)
Notice the first four words – “Therefore submit to God” – and notice that this verse starts out with this command. What this means is that you first have to be willing to fully submit to God before you can even begin to resist and fight against the devil and his demons to make them flee from you.
Submitting to God means you have entered into this full surrender with Him. You have to be willing to fully surrender every part of your being to Him – body, soul, and spirit, along with your entire life over to Him. Again, all of this is fully explained to you in our article titled, “The Full Surrender” in the Bible Basics Section of our site.
If you are willing to make this full surrender with the Lord where He will now be the One who will be in total control of your life and lead it in the direction that He will now want it to go in, then you will now be ready for step 2.
2. Confess Each One of Your Sins Before the Lord
The next step to be able to receive total deliverance from these demons is that you are going to have to be willing to admit that what you were involved in were sins and transgressions against the Lord in the first place. And then you will have to be willing to fully confess each one of these transgressions out as actual sins before the Lord.
If you can’t or won’t admit that you have been sinning against the Lord with your involvement in some of the above areas – then again, there will be no help and deliverance from these demons. As a result, the demons will continue to hold you captive until you can agree to see and do things God’s way.
It’s either God’s way or the highway. There is no negotiating or trying to compromise your way out of this with the Lord. Sin is sin, and any involvement in any of the above areas are direct sins before the Lord, no matter what your excuse may have been for falling into some of these areas to begin with.
If you are willing to admit that what you have been involved in was wrong and sinful before the eyes of God, and then you are willing to fully confess each one of these sins as actual sins before the Lord in the prayer I will give you below – then you will now be ready for step 3.
3. Renounce Each One of Your Sins Before the Lord
The next step, in addition to being willing to fully confess out each one of these transgressions as sins, is that you will now have to be willing to fully renounce each one of these sins before the Lord. When you renounce each one of these sins before the Lord – what you will now be telling God is that you will never, ever go back into any of these heavy sin areas again.
Before you decide to go before the Lord for your deliverance, you will first have to make sure that you really want to be set free from your sinful past – and that you will do everything you possibly can in your own natural will power not to go back into any of these heavy sin areas ever again.
If you have fallen prey to some of the different drug addictions, ask God, through the power of His Holy Spirit, to help set you completely free from the addictions of whatever drugs you may have been hooked on.
The Holy Spirit is there to help you out with His power if you are really wanting His help. There is nothing that the power of God cannot totally defeat and overcome in your life, no matter how hopeless or bleak the situation may look to you in the natural.
One word of caution in this area! Once you make up your mind to fully renounce any of these types of heavier sins before the Lord – you will have to make sure that you never, ever fall back into these same areas again.
What will happen if you do, is that not only will you give these demons another legal right to be able to come back after you again – but these demons who will be coming back after you for a second time will be demons that will be 7 times more wicked and evil than what the original demons were that had attached to you in the first place.
For more information on this kind of possibility – we have another article in our site titled, “Interpretation of Matthew 12:45 – Demons” in the Spiritual Warfare section of our site.
In this article, I give you the main verse from Scripture where this revelation is being given to us by the Lord, and the appropriate interpretation and commentary on what this verse is trying to tell us. It would be my strong recommendation that you also read this article as part of your education on this topic.
4. Break the Legal Rights of the Demons
Once you have fully confessed and fully renounced each one of these heavier sins before God the Father – then you have just taken away all of the legal rights that the demons had to stay attached to you. Now you are ready to break those legal rights.
I will show you how to properly do this in the battle prayer I will give you below and how to properly word out this part of the prayer. Basically what you will be doing is verbally breaking the legal rights of the demons operating under God the Father’s authority, power, and anointing to be able to do so.
After you break the legal rights of these demons before God the Father, then you will be ready for the last and final step.
5. Verbally Command the Demons to Now Leave You in the Name of Jesus Christ
Once you have fully confessed and fully renounced each one of the sin areas you had been involved in, and then have fully broken the legal rights of the demons before God the Father – then the last thing that will remain will be you turning around and verbally engaging with the demons – telling them that they no longer have any more valid legal rights to stay attached to you, and that they will now have to leave you in the name of your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
You will have to verbally do this. Demons cannot read your mind or your thoughts – so you will have to verbally, out loud, command them to now leave you in the name of Jesus Christ. Again, I will show you how to word out this part of the prayer in the battle prayer I will give you below.
The Battle Prayer
I am going to give you an exact battle prayer that I drew up for a woman who had drawn heavy demonic activity into her life as a result of falling into some very heavy dark side areas. This woman has given me permission to release the exact battle prayer that I had drawn up for her.
However, it was agreed that I would leave her name out of it due to the very personal nature of some of the things she was involved in. I will substitute another name in her place so as to keep the flow of the prayer intact.
As you will see when I list out the legal rights the demons had to come into her life in the first place – many of these sins were very severe transgressions against the Lord, and these demons had more than enough legal rights to launch an all-out, full scale attack on her and her life.
This battle prayer is divided into two parts. The first part will be her confessing and renouncing each one of her sins before the Lord, and then breaking the legal rights of the demons once those sins had been properly confessed and renounced before the Lord. The second part of the prayer will be when she then turns around and verbally commands the demons to now leave her in the name of Jesus Christ.
Here are both parts of the exact prayer. I will then add some additional commentary after I give you this battle prayer so I can point out several things to you as to why I worded certain parts of the prayer as I did.
1. Prayer to Break the Legal Rights of the Demons
Father,
In the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, I now approach Your throne in a time of great need, in time of an extreme emergency.
Father, as You already know, I have demons attacking me from the outside, and possibly from the inside of my being. I know why they are in my life. I have done some really bad and evil things in my life. I have horribly transgressed against both You and all of Your basic laws and commandments with the sins that I have personally committed against You.
Father, I first want to say to You that I am really sorry for doing all of these bad and evil things against You. There is no excuse for the kind of behavior that I have exhibited over the years. But Father, I now want to take a strong stand. I do not want any more part of this kind of evil and wicked lifestyle.
I know now that You are My only hope and My only salvation to be able to deliver me from the demonic bondage I now find myself enslaved in as a result of crossing over into these kinds of heavier sins.
Father, I ask that You please have mercy on my soul, and that You please forgive me for all of the sins and atrocities that I have personally committed against You under the blood that Your one and only Son Jesus Christ has personally shed for me on the cross.
1. Father, in the name of Jesus, I now want to formally confess out all of the bad, evil, and sinful things I have personally done against You. Father, I now confess to you the following things as being sins and extreme abominations in Your sight:
- My involvement in drugs.
- My involvement unnatural and unholy sex acts.
- My use of all kinds of pornography.
- My past adulterous affairs and activities.
- All of my past thefts and covetousness.
- All of my envy and jealousy that I have ever shown against anyone, and all of my lying and deceit that I have ever been involved in.
- All of the pride, impatience, hate and rage that I have ever shown or manifested over the years.
- All of my involvement in some of the occult arts such as witchcraft, invocation of demon spirits, and tarot cards.
- All of the times that I have personally cursed You and prayed to other false gods.
- Breaking most of Your 10 commandments to one degree or another.
Father, I now know, without any shadow of a doubt, that all of the above activities were evil, heinous sins and abominations in your sight. I am so sorry for going this far against You.
Father, I know that Your Son Jesus Christ has died for all of my sins. Father, in the name of Jesus, I now ask that You please forgive me for every single one of the these sins and transgressions that I have personally committed against You. Let the Blood of Your Most Holy Son Jesus Christ completely wash away every ounce of stench, every ounce of each one of these sins that have been committed against You.
Father, you tell me in Your Word, that if I am willing to confess my sins and agree to repent, that You will fully forgive me of my sins and cleanse me from all unrighteousness. Father, I now ask that You please forgive me for of all of my sins that I have personally committed against You through the blood that Your Son Jesus Christ has personally shed for me on the cross. I now believe that all of my sins have been completely forgiven and completely washed away by the Blood of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
2. Father, I now want to agree to also renounce every single one of the above sins. You have my word that I will never, ever attempt to go back into any area having to do with the occult, any area having to do with sexual fornication, or any involvement in any kind of drug use whatsoever.
Father, in Jesus name, I now officially renounce every single one of the above sins and transgressions that have been committed against You.
3. Father, the next thing I need to take care of is when my father raped me when I was a young child. I now know that what he did was evil and wrong in Your sight. However, I will choose not to hold any unforgiveness towards him.
Father, I choose with my own free will to fully forgive him for what he did to me when I was a young child. My father and the judgment on his life will now fall into Your hands, not mine. I hold no hate or animosity towards him. I ask that you please have mercy on his soul when he has to face You for his own personal judgment. I now fully forgive him for what he has done to me.
4. Father, I now believe that all of my sins, transgressions, and abominations against You have been fully forgiven by You under the shed blood of Your Son Jesus Christ. Father, I thank You for having this kind of mercy on my soul and that You have made a way of forgiveness for me through the Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ.
Father, with all of my sins and transgressions against You now being fully forgiven – I now want to once and for all break the legal rights these demons have had over me over all of these years.
Father, in Jesus name, I now ask that You fully break the legal rights of these demons. I now ask that You completely break and completely sever every single one of their legal rights that has arisen as a result of my involvement in all of the above sin areas.
Father, in Jesus name, I now want to personally come against each one of these legal rights myself – operating under Your authority and Your anointing to be able to do so.
5. Father, I also want to reaffirm with you as I have done the other day, that I have now fully surrendered my body, my soul, my spirit, and my entire life into Your hands. I now ask that You place me into Your perfect will for my life.
I am now willing to fully follow You all the rest of the days of my life. I will now be guided by Your Holy Spirit from this moment on – and I will never, ever cross back over into the sin-filled life I used to live in.
Father, I now belong to You, and You alone. You, and You alone, are my Rock and my Salvation. I will look to no other. My life is now totally in Your hands. Father, from this moment on, I will fully follow You and fully serve You for the rest of my eternal life.
Thank You Father.
Thank You Jesus.
2. Battle Prayer to Cast Out the Demons
Sarah,
You have now broken all of the legal rights of the demons on the above prayer that I gave you. They are now ready to be cast out with the battle prayer I will now give you.
I would wait until everyone is out of the house and do this in private between you, God, and the demons.
1. The 1st part of the prayer will be you going to God the Father asking Him to anoint you with His power to cast these demons out and off you for good. You will also be asking God to take this battle up for you and to have His power come through the Holy Spirit to drive these demons off you.
2. The 2nd part of the prayer will be when you will then turn around and verbally engage with the demons to now leave you in the name of Jesus Christ.
3. Say both parts of these prayers out loud so the demons can hear you loud and clear. Also, on the 2nd part of this prayer – hold out your right hand as you are telling the demons to now leave you. The right hand of God the Father is His hand of power and deliverance. As His born-again child, you now have the legal right to be able to do this.
I would say this prayer out loud 3x-4x over the next couple of days.
A) Father,
In the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I now boldly approach Your throne of grace and mercy. Father, I now come before You to once and for all to take these demons out of my life for good.
Father, I have already come before You confessing all of the bad and sinful things I have ever done to You throughout most of my life. I have also renounced my past activities and have told You that I will never, ever go back into those heavier sin areas again. Father, I have horribly wronged You with some of those past transgressions, and I am so sorry that I have ever gone against You and deliberately disobeyed You so many times.
But Father, now is the time to pick myself back up off the mat. Now is the time to make a brand new start with a brand new direction. I have already fully surrendered my body, my soul, my spirit, and my entire life into Your hands. I have now entered into Your perfect will for my life. I am now all Yours. I now belong to You and no one else – and I will now fully serve You and fully follow You for the rest of my eternal life.
Father, now is the time to clean up one last loose end. As a result of my past involvement in some of these horrible transgressions against You, I have drawn demons into my life. I know that I have given these demons full legal right to come into my life and attack me like they have been doing with everything that I have done against You.
Father, You have said in Your Word that “The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out all of their troubles.” (Psalm 34:17)
You have said in Your Word that “Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand will save me.” (Psalm 138:7)
Father, in Jesus name, I now ask that You send me into battle to cast these demons out of my life for good. You say in Your Word that You can “make me bold with strength in my soul” (Psalm 138:3) and that “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)
Father, since I have now fully surrendered every part of my life into Your hands – I now want to take a hold of the verse that says to “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” (James 4:7)
Since I am now fully submitted to You, I am now ready to resist Satan and his demons who have been attacking and tormenting me over all of these years. Your Word tells me that Satan and his demons will now flee if I pick up my sword, which is Your Word, and directly engage with them.
Father, in the mighty name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I now ask that You stir Yourself up as a Man of War and go before me to take out this defeated foe. Your Word tells me that “The Lord is a man of war.” (Exodus 15:3)
Your Word tells me that “The Lord shall go forth like a mighty man; He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war … He shall prevail against His enemies.” (Isaiah 42:13)
Father, in Jesus name, I now ask that You stir up Your zeal like a mighty Man of War off the wording of this verse.
Father, I now ask that You go before me as a consuming fire. Your Word tells me that “The Lord your God is He who goes over before you as a consuming fire. He will destroy them and bring them down before you; You shall drive them out and DESTROY THEM QUICKLY …” (Deuteronomy 9:3)
Father, Your Word tells me that You will go before me and “make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron.” (Isaiah 45:2)
Father, these demons have kept me prisoner long enough. I now ask that You go before me to make this crooked path totally straight again and that you break the bars that have been holding me captive over all of these years. I now ask that You completely cut and completely sever the cords of these wicked and evil spirits.
In Deuteronomy 33:27, it says that You “will thrust out the enemy from before you, and will say, ‘Destroy!”
Father, I now ask that you anoint me from head to foot with Your anointing, with Your power, and with Your authority to take these demons head on. You have already told us in Your word that “in my name they will cast out demons,” (Mark 16:15) and that You gave the early apostles the “power over unclean spirits” and that “they cast out many demons.” (Mark 6:7)
Father, not by my might, but by Your Holy Spirit I will engage with and defeat these demons once and for all!
Father, Your Word tells me that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. Your Word tells me that I have been given “the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt me” (Luke 10:19) and that “Through You we will push down our enemies, through Your name we will trample those who rise up against us.” (Psalm 44:5)
B) (Say all of this prayer out loud and hold out your right hand when saying it)
“In the name of My Lord and Savior and my deliverer Jesus Christ – I am now speaking to every single demon that is on the outside of me and to every single demon who may be on the inside of me.
Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, I now come against each and everyone of you. I know that you have all been in my life for many years. I also know why you have been allowed to enter into my life and attack me like you have been doing over all of these years.
I now know what all of your legal rights have been over all of these years that allowed you to attack me as you have been doing.
Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ – all of your legal rights have now been totally and completely broken before my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and my heavenly Father, God the Father.
I have now fully submitted and fully surrendered my entire body, my entire soul, my entire spirit, and my entire life into the hands of God the Father. I now belong to God the Father and my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I now belong to Them, and to Them alone in this life.
You no longer own me. You no longer have any more legal rights to stay attached to me. All of your legal rights and demonic strongholds have now been completely broken and completely demolished under the shed Blood of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
I have now fully confessed my sin of using drugs over the course of my entire life. I have now fully confessed my sins of fornication and having sex with multiple lovers and partners over the years. I have now fully confessed my sin of watching any kind of pornography. I have now fully confessed my sins of past thefts and covetousness.
I have now fully confessed my sins of breaking most of 10 of God’s commandments to one degree or another during the course of my life. I have now fully confessed my sins of delving into parts of the occult that I had no business treading into. I have now fully confessed all of my sins having to do with my jealousy, rage and anger.
All of my sins have now been fully confessed and fully renounced before God the Father. All of my sins have now been fully forgiven. My slate has now been made perfectly and completely clean. My sins and transgressions against the Lord are no longer remembered in His eyes. I am now a new creation in Jesus Christ.
I am now totally committed to serving Him, and Him alone in this life. Never again will I go back into the sin-filled life that gave you the legal right to be able to come into my life in the first place.
Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ:
I now plead the Blood of Jesus Christ over every inch of spirit.
I now plead the Blood of Jesus over every inch of my soul.
I now plead the Blood of Jesus over every inch of my body.
I now plead the blood of Jesus over every inch of this entire house.
Demons, the Word of God is now my Sword! I repeat, the Word of God is now my Sword!
I am now taking up my sword, which is the Word of my God, which is the word of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ – and I am now coming against each and everyone of you – whether you be on the outside of me or whether you be on the inside of me.
Demons, all of your legal rights have now been completely and totally broken – completely and totally demolished – completely and totally severed. I repeat – all of your legal rights have now been completely broken. Your time is up! You will all have to go now! I repeat – you will all have to go now!
To every single demon who may be attacking me from the outside, or who has been living in this house as a result of the legal rights I had earlier given to you, I am now coming against each and everyone of you. You too have had all of your legal rights totally broken.
Not one of you has any more legal right to be able to stay attached to me in any way, shape, or form. You will all now have to go.
Go now, in the name of Jesus! I repeat – go now in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and do not ever come back into my life or in this house ever again!
Father, I have full faith and belief that You have now driven all of these demons out of my body, out of my soul, out of my house, and out of my life for good by the power of Your Holy Spirit. Father, I now ask that You protect both me and my family from this moment on, and that You never allow these demons to come back on us ever again.
Father, to You be all of the glory. To You be all of the praise, glory and honor that is only due to You. Father, thank You for this deliverance. Father, thank You for this new life.
Father, I now ask that You take complete control of my life from this moment on and that You lead me into Your perfect will for my life. Father, guide me by Your Holy Spirit into the direction and path that You will want me to take in this life. My life is no longer my own. I now belong to You, and You alone.
Thank You Father.
Thank You Jesus.
Thank You Holy Spirit.”
Remarks
Note the following in the way this prayer was worded:
1. This battle prayer is divided into two main parts. The first part of the prayer is where you go one-on-one with God the Father to fully confess and fully renounce each one of the specific sins that you have committed against Him that have given the demons the legal right to be able to come directly against you.
Also note that I had this woman apologize to the Lord for this kind of extreme activity. Many of her sins were heavy and extreme, and I felt she also needed to apologize to the Lord, as she knew that what she was doing was wrong and sinful in His sight.
If you have engaged in some of these heavier types of sins against the Lord, it would be my recommendation that you also apologize to the Lord from your heart for committing these types of heavier sins and transgressions against Him in the first place.
2. Also note that her natural father had raped her when she was younger. As I stated in my article in “4 Levels of Spiritual Warfare Against Demonic Spirits” – if anyone has severely abused you, you will have to be willing to fully forgive that person in the eyes of God.
This could have been another possible entry point with these demons, so she had to close that door by telling God that she would be willing to fully forgive him for what he had done to her at such a young age.
3. When you get into the second part of the prayer where she is going to go toe-to-toe with these demons to drive them off her – first note that I had her go before God the Father to ask Him for His power and His anointing to be able to defeat and drive these demons off her.
She could have just skipped this part of the prayer and just started to command the demons to now leave her in the name of Jesus since all of their legal rights had been broken earlier in the first part of this prayer. However, what you have to realize was that this was a more serious type of case.
When someone has been beat up for so long from this kind of demonic attack, their faith and strength levels are not going to be operating at the same levels of what a normal Christian may be be operating at.
As a result, you first have to have them go before God the Father and ask Him for His power, authority, and anointing to be able to drive these demons off them. You also need to quote some good battle verses back to God the Father, asking Him to take this battle up for them, since they have been beat up from so many years of constant abuse and torment from these demons.
In the Spiritual Warfare section of our site, we have another article titled, “Battle Verses of the Bible.” In this article, I give you 100 of the very best battle verses from the Bible. You thus have a whole range of different types of battle verses to pick and choose from to put into your own personal battle prayer. The battle verses I picked for this particular case were the ones I thought were best suited for what I was dealing with.
4. Then notice as you get into the part where she starts to verbally engage with the demons. Instead of just starting out by commanding the demons to now leave her – I have her confront the demons and tell them that they have now been fully exposed, that all of her sins have been fully confessed and fully renounced before God the Father, and that all of their legal rights have now been fully broken and completely taken away from them.
Once the demons know and understand what has just happened between this woman and God the Father – they will know they have all been put on final notice that all of their legal rights are now gone. They will know that she now knows who she is in her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and that they will now be no match for her – since God will now be anointing her with His power to be able to cast all of them out of her for good.
5. As she starts to come against them – also notice that I have her speak directly to any demons who may be living and operating on the inside of her, and any demons who may be attacking her from an outside position, which would be on the outside of her body.
When you come across someone who has crossed over into these kinds of heavier sins and transgressions – there is always a very good chance that some of the demons may have been allowed to literally enter in on the inside of that person’s body and soul.
As I have stated in my article on the “4 Levels of Spiritual Warfare Against Demonic Spirits” – Christians can draw demons into their bodies and souls if they cross over into some of these heavier types of sins. However, the demons will not be able to enter into that person’s human spirit since the Holy Spirit is already living there.
This woman had been saved for about 5 years before I met her, but the attacks from the demons never did stop.
The reason the attacks had never stopped was due to the fact she had never properly broken all of the demon’s legal rights and thus did not have the legal authority to be able to cast them out. Once she had fully confessed and fully renounced all of these heavier sins before God the Father – then the demons no longer had any more legal rights to be able to stay attached to her and they are now ready to be cast out.
Since I did not know what demons were operating on the inside of her or what demons were operating on the outside of her – I had her speak directly to both of them. This way she would be covering both of her bases.
6. Also note that right in the middle of the battle I had her plead the Blood of Jesus over her entire spirit, over her entire soul, and over her entire body. If any demons were trying to hold on to her during this battle – pleading the Blood of Jesus right in the middle of this kind of battle should break them loose since they are obviously no match for the power that is in Blood of Jesus Christ.
7. I then had her finish out the battle command by pleading the Blood of Jesus directly against all of the demons, and then telling them that they now have to leave her since there is now nothing left for any of them to be able to hold onto. This is the part where you now tell them to leave you in the name of Jesus Christ and that they are to never, ever come back on you again.
The prayer is then ended with her telling both God and Jesus that she now believes that God has given her total victory and deliverance from these demons, that she is now willing to fully follow God in the direction that He will now want to take her life in, and then thanking Him for the victory and giving Him all the praise, honor, and glory that is only due to Him for this kind of an extreme deliverance.
Conclusion
I know many Christians will read this kind of extreme testimony and really have a hard time believing that this kind of extreme activity really does occur in our walk with the Lord.
Many of these people who have been under heavy demonic attack for any period of time are very reluctant to tell anyone for fear of people thinking they are going nuts or that they are just imagining all of this. As a result of this kind of fear and paranoia, many of these people keep a lot of this kind of activity to themselves.
Many of the Churches still do not like to talk about this kind of heavier activity for fear of giving the devil his due, or for fear that people will start seeing demons around every possible corner. As a result, you have some in the flock who are literally getting their heads knocked off by these demons – and everyone around them is completely oblivious as to what is really going on.
I really feel that was why Jesus Himself listed the command to cast out demons in every single one of the verses that I listed at the beginning of my article on the 4 Levels of Spiritual Warfare Against Demonic Spirits. Every single time that Jesus told His apostles to go out and walk with His anointing to save the lost and heal the sick – He always told them to also cast out demons where and when needed.
This specific command is in every single one of those verses! If God the Father is making sure that His Son had this kind of command in every single one of those verses – then you know that God is really trying to tell all of us something with this kind of an intense statement.
Bottom line – demons are real, and they are still allowed to roam in the air on this earth seeking who they are going to try and devour next. As a result, some Christians will come under direct demonic attack from time to time from some of these demons.
As I have said before, the apostle Paul could not have said it any better when he said our real battle in this life is not with flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers – which are demons and demon powers who are still allowed to roam this earth and interact with some of us until Jesus returns back to us in His second coming and then casts Satan into the Bottomless Pit.
Until that glorious, final event actually occurs, this world will always have to put up with a certain amount of attacks from demonic spirits. As Christians, this leaves us with one of two alternatives.
For what is worth, we will continue to add more articles on this subject so this kind of information is available to anyone who may actually need it.
We have received numerous emails from people all around the world who have had to engage with some demonic spirits who were attacking them for various reasons – and some of them have been able to receive complete and total deliverance from the demonic attack they were facing with some of the basic 101 information and knowledge that we have released in these kinds of articles.
God says in His Word that His people will perish and go into captivity for having lack of knowledge. If you look closely at these two verses where God is making these two statements – I also believe that the reverse is true – that having the appropriate knowledge from God can help set you free and deliver you from any type of captivity that you may have already fallen into.
And when demons launch an all-out, full scale attack on someone – that person will go into spiritual captivity until they can get themselves delivered from their evil grip by the power of God.
Once again, God the Father could not make things any more clear on these kinds of issues and topics with all of the revelation and knowledge that He has given to us in His Word. This knowledge and revelation is all there for the taking for the seekers who are willing to grab a hold of it, study it, and then seek to implement it into their daily walk with our Lord and Savior.
And to think that all of this revelation and knowledge is all contained in just one glorious Holy Book – unbelievable!
