Hello! I have written several prayers/warfare and I wanted to share them with you all. I hope you find them helpful!

Crucifying the Flesh

Prayer

Father, I thank You for giving me the power to crucifying my flesh. I know You would not tell me to do it if it were impossible. Lord, I need Your help in this area. I am so sorry for the times I have neglected to kill my sinful nature and I am sorry for the times I have chosen to let my flesh drive my actions instead of Your Spirit.  

Lord, right now I willingly choose to crucify my sinful nature with all its unruly passions and appetites. Galatians 5:24. It will not dictate who I am or what I do. I will no longer let my flesh stand between You and me. Your Word tells me to walk habitually in Your Holy Spirit, to seek Him, and be responsive to His guidance, in order to not carry out the desire of the sinful nature that lives within me. The sinful nature responds impulsively without regard for You and Your Word. That is not who or what I want to be, and it is not who I was created to be. Galatians 5:16. I choose to walk in the fruit of Your Spirit which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Galatians 5:22-23.

I understand that if I choose to live by the impulses of my flesh it leads to death. The results of my sinful nature are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, total irresponsibility, lack of self-control, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, that promote heresies, envy, drunkenness, riotous behavior, and other practices like these. Galatians 5:19-21. If I practice these behaviors I will not inherit the kingdom of heaven, but if I chose to live by the power of the Your precious Holy Spirit I will be habitually putting to death the sinful deeds of my body, and I will really live forever with You in heaven. Romans 8:13.

Father, I have been crucified with Your Son Jesus Christ. Through His amazing sacrifice I have shared His crucifixion, by killing my old sinful self. I choose to no longer live the life I lived before surrendering to You, but I will live like Christ who lives within me. Galatians 2:20. I will imitate You and be as much like You as possible. Ephesians 5:1. I will walk in Your example.

I will be like a boxer and discipline my body and make it my slave, and not let it make me its slave. 1 Corinthians 9:27. I will never live a life of being a slave to sin or my flesh again. You have set me free from the penalty of sin and I will not go back. I am a new creation, and I will walk in the identity You have given me. I will follow Your instructions and I will deny myself by setting aside selfish interest. I will take up my cross by expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come, and follow You by conforming to You example. Matthew 16:24. 

I have been raised with You to a new life, sharing in Your resurrection from the dead. I will keep seeking the things that are above by setting my mind and staying focused on heaven and eternal things, not on things that are on this earth that only have temporal value. In my new life with You I have died to this world. My life is in and with You. I put to death and deprive of power the evil longings of my flesh.I rid myself completely of anger, rage, malice, slander, and obscene/abusive/filthy/vulgar language from my mouth. I will not lie to anyone for any reason because I understand I have stripped off the old self with its evil and ungodly practices. I have put on my new spiritual self which is being continually renewed in Your true knowledge and in Your image. You created the new me. You are my Creator and I submit my life fully to You. Colossians 3: 1-10.

I am chosen, loved, and saved by You. I am set apart and sanctified for Your purposes. I choose to put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. I will graciously bear with others and all situations. I willingly forgive those who have hurt me and those who will hurt me in the future. I refuse to hold on to any bitterness or unforgiveness. I put on and wrap myself in unselfish love for others. I will seek the best for others. Your peace will be the controlling factor in my heart.

Your Word will have its home within my heart. It will dwell in my heart and mind. It will permeate every aspect of my being. Whatever I do no matter what it is I will do in Your name and in dependence on You. Father, I thank You for everything You have done in my life. Colossians 3: 12-17.

In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Warfare

Demons, I know you try to use my flesh to create patterns of sin in my life and bondages, but God has given me the power to crucify my flesh. Right now, I willingly choose to fully submit to God and crucify my sinful nature with all its unruly passions and appetites. Galatians 5:24. You will no longer use my flesh as a weapon against me. You will not dictate who I am or what I do. I will never let you create a wall between my Father and me. God’s Word tells me to walk habitually in His Holy Spirit, to seek Him, and be responsive to His guidance, in order to not carry out the desire of the sinful nature that lives within me and that is exactly what I am going to do. You will not stop or interfere in this process. I choose to walk in the fruit of God’s Holy Spirit, which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control and not my flesh. Galatians 5:22-23.

Living by my flesh leads to death, but I have eternal life with my Father in heaven. Romans 8:13.

I refuse and reject sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, total irresponsibility, lack of self-control, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, that promote heresies, envy, drunkenness, riotous behavior, and other practices like these. Galatians 5:19-21.

I am crucified with Christ. Through His sacrifice I have the ability to kill my old sinful nature. I choose to no longer live the life I was living where I listened to you and your lies. Your lies about me and your lies about God have been exposed and I am living by the Truth found in God’s Word. There is no turning back for me! Galatians 2:20. I will be an imitator of Christ and be as much like Jesus as possible. Ephesians 5:1. I will walk in His example, and I will use the authority He has given me to use against you.

I will discipline my body and make it my slave, and not let it make me its slave. 1 Corinthians 9:27. I will never live a life of being a slave to you, sin, or my flesh again. God has set me free from the penalty of sin and I will not go back. I am a new creation, and I will walk in the identity God has given me. I will follow the instructions of Jesus and I will deny myself by setting aside selfish interest.  I will take up His cross by expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come and follow Jesus by conforming to His example in His life. Matthew 16:24. Every single bondage you created in my life is broken in the name of Jesus. You will not use my flesh against me in order to make me fall.

I have been raised with Jesus to a new life, and I share in His resurrection from the dead. I will keep seeking the things that are above by setting my mind and staying focused on heaven and eternal things, not on things that are on the earth that only have temporal value. You will not distract me, and you will not cause me to look at the temporal. I am headed toward heaven and my mind is on God. I have died to this world. I am giving you zero room in my life. I rid myself completely of anger, rage, malice, slander, and obscene/abusive/filthy/vulgar language from my mouth. I will not lie to anyone for any reason because I understand I have stripped off the old self with its evil and ungodly practices. I have put on my new spiritual self which is being continually renewed in God’s true knowledge and in the image of my Creator. He is my Creator and I submit my life fully to Him. Colossians 3: 1-10.

I am chosen, loved, and saved by God. I am set apart and sanctified for His purposes. I choose to put on His heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. I will graciously bear with others and situations. I willingly forgive those who have hurt me and those who will hurt me in the future leaving no open door for your torment. I refuse to hold on to any bitterness or unforgiveness no matter what comes my way. I put on and wrap myself in unselfish love for others. I will seek the best for others. God’s peace will be the controlling factor in my heart and not my emotions that you try to use to get me focused on hurt, pain, and wrongs done to me.

God’s Word has its home within my heart. It dwells in my heart and mind. It permeates every aspect of my being. It is my strongest weapon against you. It is the sharpest sword, and you must obey what is written in His Word.

Whatever I do no matter what it is, I will do in God’s name and with dependence on Him. I give thanks to my Father for everything He has done in my life. Colossians 3: 12-17. I will walk in humility, and I will resist any pride you try to attach to my life. I have victory in every area of my life because of the authority Jesus has given me. In the name of Jesus I command you to get out and leave me alone.

Daily Prayer and Warfare

Prayer

Lord, according to Psalm 107:2 I know I am one of Your redeemed. You have delivered me from the hand of the adversary, and I ask right now that You would keep me in the palm of Your hand. Lord, I surrender to You fully and to Your plan for my life. I say-not my way Lord, but Yours. I rest in Your peace and joy knowing fully that I am redeemed by You. Your Word says it and I stand on that truth. I am not in the hands of the enemy! I am in Your hands.

Jesus in You I have redemption, salvation, and deliverance. (Ephesians 1:7) Your blood flows for my freedom and I thank You for the power in Your blood. It has the power to destroy the yoke of every bondage. My sins have been forgiven and I can stand in right standing with God because of Your precious blood, Jesus, and I am so thankful for Your sacrifice on the cross. You died so that I can be free. You suffered so I may live in eternity with You.

I put on Your full armor and walk into battle knowing You have equipped me for the fight. (Ephesians 6:10-18) It is through You and You alone that I can walk in total victory. On my own I am nothing, but through You, because of You, I am mighty-not me, but You through me. I am strong in You. I wear Your armor to fully stand against the enemy. I know who my fight is against and because of You I can stand against them. I stand firm and hold my ground in battle. Around my waist I wear the belt of truth that allows me to walk in knowing who You are and who I am in You. I put on Your breastplate of righteousness, not my righteousness, but Yours! Your righteousness that protects my heart and allows me to stand boldly before You. I hold up the shield of faith that resist every single arrow of the enemy. I stand on the faith of knowing who You are! I wear the shoes of the gospel of peace. I walk in total peace knowing I am in the palm of Your hand. I put on the helmet of salvation which is my hope in You, and which also protects my mind and thoughts. I hold up the sword of the Spirit which is Your Word. I use it violently against the enemy knowing full well that he cannot stand against Your Word.

Lord, I lay every thought at Your feet that is not of You and that are not ones You want me to have. (2 Corinthians 10: 3-5). I surrender my thought life to You fully. I want my thoughts to be continually on You and the things of Your kingdom. Your Word says to resist the devil and he will flee. (James 4:7) So Lord right now I do resist him, and I stand on Your Word that says he must flee. I will not walk in fear or despair because I know Your Word is true and cannot fail.

God I fully and willingly submit to You. You are my God, my Creator, and my Father. Lord, You are the Most High and I dwell in Your shelter. You and You alone keep me safe. (Psalm 91). You are my fortress, and You are who I trust. Jesus, I thank You for the authority You have given me to tread on demons. (Luke 10:19). I thank You for not leaving me weaponless and I pray that You would help me to learn my full identity and authority in You. In Your name I pray, Amen.

Warfare

Listen demons! The Word of God says He has redeemed me from your hands. (Psalm 107:2). His Word is truth and there is nothing you can do but obey His Word. I am no longer in your hands, and you do not have authority over me. I am a child of the King and I belong to Him. He is my God, and I am His. The blood of Jesus offers me redemption, deliverance, and salvation. Through Him I am free from the penalty of sin, (Ephesians 1:7) and He has redeemed me and called me His own.

I am not wrestling against flesh and blood, I come against the rulers, authorities, cosmic powers, this present darkness, and the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places in the name of Jesus. (Ephesians 6:12). I stand by faith against every attack of the enemy on my life and the lives of my loved ones and the Word of God says no weapon formed against me will prosper…not ONE!! (Isaiah 54: 17).  So right now, demons I disarm you in the name of Jesus. I command the attacks to stop, and I cancel every assignment against my life right now that does not line with God’s plan for me.

I put on the full armor of God, and I hold up the shield of faith that extinguishes every single one of your darts. Not one can hit me. I come against you with the sword of His truth. (Ephesians 6:11). I destroy every demonic stronghold, argument, or lofty opinion that is raised against the knowledge of God and I take every thought captive to the obedience of Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 10: 3-5).

According to the Word of God when I fully submit to God and resist you, you must flee. (Ephesians 6:11) So I am putting you on notice right now that I am fully submitted to God, and I do resist you. I know you know the Word of God and I also know you must obey it. I resist you and now you MUST flee.

I dwell in the shelter of the Most High. I abide in the shadow of the Almighty and He will keep me safe. (Psalm 91). No harm shall come to me or my household. Jesus Himself has given me authority over you and He says I will tread over you, and you will not hurt me. (Luke 10:19) Those are His Words and you know as well as I know that His Words are true. So right now, I bind and rebuke every demonic attack against my life and the lives of my family members in the name of Jesus. I command them to cease and desist at this moment. Not by my strength or by my power or in my name, but in the name that is above all names: Jesus Christ. The One who totally disarmed you through His death, burial, and resurrection.

Walking in the Spirit

Lord, I want to live, walk, and follow You daily. I want to walk in Your Spirit every single day of my life. I know to do that I must do the following.  

Crucify My Flesh

Lord, You said in Your Word that if I wish to follow You, as Your disciple, I must deny myself by setting aside selfish interests and take up my cross daily by expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come and follow You which means believing in You, conforming to Your example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in You. I choose to deny myself and take up my cross daily and follow after You. (Luke 9:23).

I am called to walk habitually in Your Holy Spirit by seeking Him and being responsive to His guidance, and I when I do this, I will not carry out the desires of my sinful nature which responds impulsively without regard for You and Your precepts. The sinful nature has its desire which is opposed to the Spirit, and the desire of the Spirit opposes the sinful nature; for these two, the sinful nature and the Spirit are in direct opposition to each other continually in conflict.

The practices of the sinful nature are clearly evident. They are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, total irresponsibility, lack of self-control, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions that promote heresies, envy, drunkenness, riotous behavior, and other things like these. I have been warned, by You Word, that if I practice such things I will not inherit the kingdom of God. 

I choose to walk in the Spirit and partake of the fruit of the Spirit which is the result of Your presence within me. I will walk in the Holy Spirits love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

I belong to You, and I choose to crucify my sinful nature together with its passions and appetites. I claim to live by the Holy Spirit, so I must also walk by the Spirit with personal integrity, Godly character, and moral courage—my conduct must be empowered by the Holy Spirit. (Galatians 5:16-25) Lord, please search my heart and show me any areas that are not pleasing to You. Show me areas where I am selfish, unkind, or anything that is not pleasing to You.

I have been crucified with You. In You I have shared Your crucifixion. It is no longer I who live, but You who lives within me. The life I now live in the body I live by faith by adhering to, relying on, and completely trusting in the You, Jesus, who loved me and gave Yourself up for me. (Galatians 2:20).

Spend Time in Prayer

Lord, I am one of your sheep and I will hear Your voice and listen to You. You know Me  and I choose to follow You. (John 10:27).

Father, I will spend time setting at Your feet. I will not get in a hurry, and I will not get distracted by the things of life. I will not get so busy with learning about You or doing for You that I neglect taking time to sit at Your feet. I understand the importance of setting aside time to sit at Your feet and being in Your presence just talking with You. (Luke 10:39-42).

Being Sensitive to the Holy Spirit

You, Father, sent Your Helper, Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor, Counselor, Strengthener, and Standby, the Holy Spirit to represent Jesus and act on His behalf. The Holy Spirit will teach me all things about You, and I will follow His guidance and teaching. (John 14:25-26). Holy Spirit I seek and welcome Your guidance, teaching, truth, and correction. I daily welcome You into my life.

Your Spirit of Truth guides me into all truth, full and complete truth. He does not speak on His own initiative, but He speaks whatever He hears from You, Father. (John 16:13).

I will be careful to avoid quenching and grieving Your Holy Spirit. I will not quench subdue or be unresponsive to His working and guidance in my life. (1 Thessalonians 5:19).

I will not rebel and grieve Your Holy Spirit which because I do not want to cause Him to change into my enemy and cause Him to fight against me. (Isaiah 63:10).

Lord, I never want to be a stiff-necked and stubborn person, I do not want to be uncircumcised in heart and ears, and I never want to actively resist You, Holy Spirit. (Acts 7:51).

Surrender/Obedience

Jesus, even You walked in total submission to the Father. I want to follow Your example and walk in total submission to Him. I say not my will Lord, but Yours. Not my way Lord, but Yours. Not my plan Lord, but Yours. My heart and life are Yours. I will follow You. (Mark 14:35-36).

My body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is within me, whom I have received as a gift from You God, and I am not my own property. I was bought with a price. I was actually purchased with Your precious blood Jesus, and I was made Your own through your death, burial, and resurrection. I will honor and glorify You with my body. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

Lord, I present my body dedicating all of myself, set apart as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing to You, which is my rational, logical, and intelligent act of worship. (Romans 12:1).

Reading His Word

Your Word is living and active and full of power making it operative, energizing, and effective. It is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as the division of the soul and spirit which is the completeness of a person, and of both joints and marrow which are the deepest parts of our nature, exposing and judging the very thoughts and intentions of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12) I understand the power of Your Word and I will never take it lightly.

Lord, You said, “It is written and forever remains written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God.’” (Matthew 4:4).

Be Imitators of Him

I will imitate You and Your character traits. I will copy You and follow Your example, as well-beloved children imitate their father. (Ephesians 5:1).

As a believer I have been called to follow Your footsteps and I will do my best to follow Your example. (1 Peter 2:21).

You must increase in prominence, but I must decrease. (John 3:30) I want more of You and less of me.

Selfless and Not Selfish

I will not do anything from selfishness or empty conceit through factional motives, or strife, but I will live with an attitude of humility being neither arrogant nor self-righteous. Lord, please help me to regard others as more important than myself. I will not merely look out for my own personal interests, but I will always consider the interests of others. (Philippians 2:3-4). Lord, help me to always put others first and to never get so caught up in my own life that I neglect seeing the needs of others.

Lord, I understand in the last days dangerous times of great stress and trouble will come They will be difficult days that will be hard to bear. People will be lovers of self, narcissistic, self-focused, lovers of money, impelled by greed, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy and profane, and they will be unloving devoid of natural human affection, calloused and inhumane, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, devoid of self-control intemperate, immoral], brutal, haters of good, traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of sensual pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of outward godliness and religion although they have denied its power, but their conduct nullifies their claim of faith. I will avoid such people and keep far away from them. (2 Timothy 3:1-5) Father, please keep me guarded from deception and please help me to never fall into these sins. Please help me to always operate in humility and with a servant’s heart.

Put Him First

Jesus, You said, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ (Matthew 22:37). I choose to put You first in everything and I will never allow anything or anyone to take Your place in my heart or life.

Anyone who loves father or mother more than You is not worthy of You, and anyone who loves their son or daughter more than You is not worthy of You. And anyone who does not take up their cross by expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come and follow You by believing in You, conforming to Your example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in You is not worthy of You.  Whoever finds their life in this world will eventually lose it through death, and whoever loses their life in this world for Your sake will find it. (Matthew 10:37-39).

Repentance/New Heart

You gave me a new heart and put a new spirit within me, and You removed the heart of stone from my flesh and gave me a heart of flesh that is caring and compassionate. (Ezekiel 36:26). Lord, help me to always keep the hardness out of my heart because I never want to return to living with a dead, cold, stone heart.

Lord help me to never fall into willful ignorance and spiritual blindness that leads to hardness and insensitivity of heart. (Ephesians 4:18). Please keep my heart focused on You.

If I freely admit that I have sinned and confess my sins, You are faithful and just—true to Your own nature and promises, and will forgive my sins and cleanse me continually from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9). I am so thankful for your forgiveness, and I ask You to help me know every time I sin so that I can run to You in repentance.

I pray all these things in the name of Jesus, Amen.

Abandonment

Prayer

Father, there are times I go through situations where I feel completely alone and like I have been abandoned by everyone. I know it is a lie, but I even feel like You are not here with me. I look around and I cannot see anyone on my side. I feel dejected, rejected, lost, alone, and utterly abandoned. Lord, please forgive me for the times I fall for the lies of the enemy, and I fail to recognize that You are with me. Your Word promises me that I will never have to walk alone through life. You are close to the brokenhearted and those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18. Father, I chose to stand on the truth found in Your Word and not my circumstances or my feelings. Even if everyone else rejects me, You will never leave me. Psalm 27:10; Deuteronomy 31:6. There is nothing that can ever separate me from Your love. Romans 8:38-39.

Lord, Your Word promises me that no matter where I am or what I am facing You will never leave me. If I go through deep waters, You are with me. If I go through rivers, they will not overwhelm me, and even if I walk through the fire it will not even burn me because You are with me. Isaiah 43:2. I am never alone! You are my comfort, my peace, and my joy. Your joy is my strength and Your peace passes all understanding. Nehemiah 8:10; Philippians 4:6.

You are my God and You are in my midst. You are the Warrior who saves me. You rejoice over me with joy. You make no mention of my past sins when I walk in repentance, and You rejoice over me with shouts of joy. Zephaniah 3:17. You are right here with me, and You will always be more than enough for me.

Your Word reminds me that You are with me always, regardless of the situation. You will never leave me. Matthew 28:20. I will be strong and courageous because You are with me wherever I go. Joshua 1:9. There is never a situation that I have to walk through alone. You go before me and make a way when there seems to be no way. Deuteronomy 31:8.

I will refuse the lies of the enemy that whisper to me that I am alone and abandoned. I will stand on Your Word and combat every lie of the enemy with Your Word. It is a weapon that no demon can stand against, and I will use it to walk in victory! Through You I can have total victory. I will live my life for You and walk in Your ways and I know that You will never leave me. Hebrews 13:5. You will never leave me or let me go and that is a promise I will base my life on. I love You and I thank You that I am never alone or abandoned. I know You have plans for my life. Jeremiah 29:11. I am not worthless, and You do have a purpose for me.

In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Warfare

Listen demons, even if everyone in my life abandons me, my Father will never leave me! He has called me His own. Psalm 27:10. I am His and He is mine. When you try to break my heart I am promised that He is near to me. Psalm 34:18. He is my Healer, Savior, Friend, and Father. He is all I need. He will always be more than enough and with Him I am never alone.

He promises to go with me through water, rivers, and even fire, so no matter what you try to bring into my life He is with me! Your tricks, traps, obstacles, and hindrances will not even hurt me. Isaiah 43:2.

God is the Warrior that will defeat you every single time on my behalf! Zephaniah 3:17. I am victorious through Him. I do not fight my battles alone. With Him going before me there is nothing you can do to harm me. I reject every single one of your lies that says I am alone and abandoned. I am never alone or abandoned. I am loved, seen, and heard by my Father and that will always be enough!

His Word promises that He is with me even to the end of the ages. That means He will never leave me. Matthew 28:20. You cannot drive a wedge between Him and me. He holds me in His hand.

I am strong and courageous through my Father. I will not be dismayed or intimidated because God is with me wherever I go. Joshua 1:9.

I will walk in His character, and He will never leave me helpless or without His support. Hebrews 13:5. He has plans and purpose for my life! Jeremiah 29:11. So, right now in the name of Jesus I command your lies to be silent. I command you to leave in the name of Jesus.

Surrender

Lord, I want to walk in total submission and surrender to You—Your purpose, Your plan, and Your will. I know the first step to walking in surrender is to actively crucify my flesh. I choose to walk habitually in the Holy Spirit and to seek You and be responsive to Your guidance, and then I will not carry out the desires of the sinful nature which responds impulsively without regard for You and Your precepts. Galatians 5:16-17. I will lay down all rebellion and control because they are the opposite of submission.

I will allow You to fully work in my heart and heal every area so that I do not allow hurt to cause me to walk in rebellion toward You, Your direction, and Your Word. I fully acknowledge that I do not have all the answers. Your ways are higher than mine, and I will refrain from questioning why You do the things that You do and/or Your timing. Isaiah 59:8-9. I will walk by faith and not by sight and know that You see the full picture from the beginning to the end. 2 Corinthians 5:7. Your plans are perfect, and they cannot fail. I will trust You with my entire life. I will not lean on my own understanding, and I will acknowledge You in all my ways. Proverbs 3:5-6.

I ask You to search my heart and show me any unrepented sins. I do not want to hold anything back from You. I repent of anything that I have done that hurts Your heart and goes against Your Word. You held nothing back from me when You died on the cross and now I will not hold anything back from You. Anything that You tell me to give up I will willingly lay it down at Your feet.

I ask You to remove any pride from my heart because I know pride is an enemy of surrender. Everything good in me comes from You and I am noting without You. All abilities I have come from Your hand. I refuse, reject, and resist pride and choose instead to walk in humility. I humble myself before Your mighty throne because I know You resist the proud, but give Your grace to the humble. James 4:10; Proverbs 3:34. Lord, I need You grace in my life every single day.

Lord, I lay down all fear because You did not give me a spirit of timidity, cowardice, or fear, but instead You have given me a spirit of power, love, sound judgment, and personal discipline that result in a calm, well-balanced mind, and self-control.2 Timothy 1:7. I refuse to let fear hinder my life or my walk with You in any way. I am free from fear, and I will never let it run my life again.

I refuse to let self-pity justify any feelings or actions that are not pleasing to You. I will not get stuck in a victimhood mentality, and I will always hold myself accountable for my actions. If Your Word says to do something I will do my best to do it, and if it says not to do something I will do my best to not do it—in every situation, no matter how I feel. I can search the Word over and over and I know I will not find exceptions to sin and/or not submitting to You no matter what I have been through or what others have done or said to me.

I lay down all shame and guilt because I know once I pray for forgiveness and walk in repentance those sins are cast as far as the east is from the west. Psalms 103:12. I fully know the voice of condemnation tries to heap guilt and shame on my head to make me run away from You. I refuse to let that happen to me. I fully accept Your conviction, but I resist condemnation that comes from the enemy. I will not let the enemy convince me that You do not love me. God, You loved me so much You sent Your Son to die for me. John 3:16. Jesus, You loved me so much You laid Your life down for me. John 15:13. I will never forget Your sacrifice and I will never take it lightly.

I refuse to entertain negative critical thoughts or attitudes because I know they are the enemy of everything Godly. They are the opposite of Your character and as I surrender my all to You, I want to be more like You. I will refrain from grumbling and complaining. Numbers 11:1-15. I will be grateful in all circumstances and thankful for Your goodness toward me. I will enter Your courts with thanksgiving and praise. Psalm 100:4.

Jesus, You are my perfect example of surrender. When you walked the earth You were fully submitted to God in every way and because of that I want to fully follow Your example. John 14:10; John 12:49-50; Luke 22:41-42. I want to be more like You.

Lord, I will pick up my cross daily and die to self. I will deny my wants and desire and follow after You. I will conform to Your example in living and if need be in suffering. My hope, faith, and trust are fully in You. Matthew 16:24.

I will take the time to sit at Your feet to really get to know You. At Your feet is where I develop a personal one on one relationship with You. I will spend time talking to You and then listening to what You want to say to me. I will not just come to You when I am in need and with a long list of requests. I will also dedicate time to spend with You the same way I would my best friend. I ask You to make me more like You as I sit at Your feet and learn from You. Luke 10:38-42.

Father, I present my body to You as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing, which is my rational, logical, intelligent act of worship to You. And I will not be conformed to this world any longer with its superficial values and customs, but I will be transformed and progressively changed as I mature spiritually by the renewing of my mind by focusing on Godly values and ethical attitudes, so that I may prove what Your will is in my life, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:1-2. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Warfare

Enemy, I choose to walk in total submission and surrender to God. I will walk in His purpose, His plan, and His will for my life. I crucify my flesh and I will walk habitually in the Holy Spirit. I refuse to carry out the desires of the sinful nature that lives in me. I refuse to listen to your temptations that attempt to fulfill the desires of my flesh. I lay down all rebellion and control because they are the opposite of submission.

I allow God to fully work in my heart and heal every area so that I do not allow hurt to cause me to walk in rebellion toward God, His direction, and His Word. I refuse to let you speak offense into my life. I will not look to my past and I will refuse to allow you to create bitterness, anger or unforgiveness in my heart. God’s ways are higher than mine, and I will refrain from questioning why He does the things that He does or His timing. Isaiah 59:8-9. I will not allow you to create questions in my mind about God or the way He does the things He does. God is God and I will look to His Word to tell me who He is. I will not allow you to speak to me about His character. I will walk by faith and not by sight and know that God sees the full picture from beginning to end. 2 Corinthians 5:7. His plans are perfect, and they cannot fail. I will trust Him with my entire life. I will not lean on my own understanding, and I will acknowledge Him in all my ways. Proverbs 3:5-6.

Everything good in me comes from God and I am nothing without Him. All abilities I have come from His hand. I refuse pride and choose to walk in humility. I humble myself before God’s mighty throne because I know He resist the proud, but He gives grace to the humble. James 4:10; Proverbs 3:34. I refuse and resist all pride that you try to send my way.  

I lay down all fear because God did not give me a spirit of timidity, cowardice or fear, but He has given me a spirit of power, love, sound judgment, and personal discipline.2 Timothy 1:7. I refuse to let fear hinder my life or my walk with God in any way. I command all spirits of fear to leave me now in the name of Jesus Christ.  I am free from fear, and I will never let it run my life again.

I reject all self-pity in the name of Jesus, and I will not use it to justify any feelings or actions that are not pleasing to God. I will not get stuck in victimhood mentality, and I will always hold myself accountable for my actions. I am not a victim in the name of Jesus, and I will walk in His victory. No demon can stop me! The Word of God says greater is He that is in my that he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4. Your plans and designs for my life will not prosper. I am in the hands of God, and I am His child.

I will obey the Word of God. If His Word says to do something I will do my best to do it, and if it says not to do something I will do my best not to do it. I will not allow you to get me in my feelings and emotions. I know the only Truth is found in the Word of God and I will base my life on His Word.

I lay down and resist all shame and guilt because I know once I pray for forgiveness and walk in repentance those sins are cast as far as the east is from the west. Psalms 103:12. I fully know you try to use condemnation to heap guilt and shame on my head to make me run away from God. I refuse to let that happen. In the name of Jesus, I resist all shame, guilt, and condemnation. I will not let you, enemy, convince me that God does not love me. God loves me so much He sent His Son to die for me. John 3:16. Jesus loves me so much He laid His life down for me. John 15:13. I will never forget His sacrifice and I will never take it lightly. I am His child and I belong to Him.

I refuse to entertain negative, critical thoughts, or attitudes because I know they are the enemy of everything Godly. I will refrain from grumbling and complaining. Numbers 11:1-15. I will be grateful in all circumstances and thankful for God’s goodness toward me. I will enter His courts with thanksgiving and praise. Psalm 100:4. I will not let you highlight the negative things in my life. I will look to the good and not the bad. I will not entertain any thoughts you try to put in my mind. I will pull each one down and take them captive—every single one! 2 Corinthians 10:5.

I will pick up my cross daily and die to self. I will deny my wants and desire and follow after God no matter what you try to throw at me and put in my path. I will conform to God’s example in living and if need be in suffering. My hope, faith, and trust are fully in God. Matthew 16:24.

I present my body to God as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing, which is my rational, logical, intelligent act of worship to Him. And I will not be conformed to this world any longer with its superficial values and customs, but I will be transformed and progressively changed as I mature spiritually by the renewing of my mind by focusing on Godly values and ethical attitudes, so that I may prove what the will of God is in my life, that which is good, acceptable, and perfect. Romans 12:1-2. Enemy, no matter what you throw at me and no matter what tactics you use against me I will walk in full surrender to my Father. He is my Lord, Savior, Master, and King. So right now in the name of Jesus I command you to go—get out and leave me.

Identity

Father, I know You knit me together in my mother’s womb. You formed every single part of me, and I am fearfully and wonderfully made by You. Psalm 139:13-14.  You have plans for me and my life. You have given me specific gifts and callings to further your kingdom. I am Your child, and You call me by name. You see me, hear me, know me, and love me with a love I cannot even fathom. Your love is perfect, and it surrounds me. You know exactly what I need when I need it. Everything I have need of is found in You. Your promises are yes and amen. You hold my past, present, and future in the palm of Your hand and I have nothing to fear because I am Yours.

Lord, please forgive me for the times I have allowed everyone and everything besides You to form my identity. There have been times I allowed the lies of the enemy to seep into my thoughts and I have mistaken them for the truth of who I am. I also allowed my past to have a louder voice than You. I allowed my past to tell me who I am, who I am not, and I did not ask You if that was the truth or lies. My past spoke into my character, and I believed the lies and I lived out those lies for a very long time and for that I am so sorry.

Father, I pray You would strip off and break every single lie of the enemy that has in any way attached to my identity. I only want to be who You have created me to be. I only want to have the gifts, character traits, and identity that have been given to me by You. I ask that You remove everything off my identity that was not created by You. I submit my life to You fully and I ask You to make me exactly who You created me to be. I lay down my hopes, dreams, ideas, and my entire life at Your feet. I do not anything that is not from You.

Please help me to remember who I am in You. Even on the hard and dark days, Lord, may I never forget who You are in me and who I am in You. I am a new creation in you. I have been joined to You by faith. I am reborn and renewed by Your precious Holy Spirit. The old me and the old things have passed away. You have made me brand new and new things have come. 2 Corinthians 5:17. My past can no longer hold me captive. That part of my life is dead and passed away. Everything is made new, and the voices of the past will no longer be allowed to dictate who I am. Father, Your voice will be the one I listen to. When I have doubts, fears, or confusion about who I am I will run straight to You for direction, confirmation, and clarity. I will no longer listen to any other voice, including my own. Your voice will be my guide in all areas of my life.

I have been crucified with You, Jesus. It is no longer I who live, but You who live in me. You loved me so much You gave up Your life for me. I am loved by You and that will always be more than enough. Galatians 2:20. I do not need the attention of others, acceptance of others, or the approval of others. I have your attention, acceptance, approval, and love. That is more than I will ever need, and I will spend the rest of my life looking to You and living the life that You have created for me. It is not about me, but Lord my life is about You. My heart is full of gratitude for You and everything You have done for me.

I am Your workmanship. I am Your own master work, a work of art, created by You. You are the Artist, and I am Your creation. Who better to fully know me than my Creator? I will always remember to go to You when I question who I am because You are the Potter, and I am the clay. You are the Artist, and I am Your artwork. You are the Creator, and I am Your creation. You know me. You see me. You have created the path of my life and I will walk in the path You have created specifically for me. Ephesians 2:10. Nothing happens by chance. My life is in Your hands, and I choose to walk by faith and not by sight because I know You are working everything out for my good. 2 Corinthians 5:7; Romans 8:28. I am Your child and You created me in Your image. John 1:12; Genesis 1:27.

You have plans and a purpose for my life. You pour out Your peace on me and have a plan that includes hope and a future and not disaster. Jeremiah 29:11. I will never fear my future because I know it is in Your hands. Your Word tells me to be strong and courageous because I am never alone. You are with me wherever I go. Joshua 1:9. I will focus on You and not the chaos that goes on in the world around me. I will rest in the fact of knowing nothing takes You by surprise and You are on the throne no matter what life looks like. There is so much peace in knowing who You are and who I am in You. I will walk in that knowledge every day of my life. If I start to drift from that knowledge, Lord, please remind me.

Father, you know the numbers of the hairs on my head. Nothing is hidden from You, and I will not fear because You know me, and You see me. Luke 12:7. I rest in the knowledge that I am who You created me to be. I do not have look, act, or talk like anyone else. You made me uniquely me, and I will refuse to compare myself to others. I will not be afraid or shy about who You made me to be. I will never again try to hide who I am. I will look at myself as Your creation. I have been formed by the hands of the Creator of all things and I will never forget that. I am not a mistake and I nothing about me is accidental. I am who You intended me to be.

Nothing can separate me from Your love. I am convinced beyond any doubt that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present and threatening, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate me from Your unlimited love. Romans 8:38-39. That is who I am! I am loved by You! What more could I ever want or need? I am loved by my Father and that is enough. The past and the enemy says I am not worthy, loved, or accepted. They tell me I am less than everyone else, I will never make it in life, I will always feel shame and guilt, I am dirty, I am broken from abuse, and I am scarred for life. BUT You cancel all those lies out with Your love for me. I am loved by You! I am who You say I am! You called me out of the darkness, and I will never go back. 1 Peter 2:9. I am no longer a slave to sin, my past, or my old self. You have set me free. Romans 6:6. My past no longer has a voice in my life. I am free to be exactly who You created me to be! I love you, Lord! In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Warfare

To any demons attacking my identity I am putting you notice that God knit me together in my mother’s womb. He formed every single part of me, and I am fearfully and wonderfully made by Him. Psalm 139:13-14. When you attack my identity, you are attacking God’s creation. God has plans for me and my life. He has given me specific gifts and callings to further His kingdom and you must get your hands off them right now! My future, gifts, calling, and my identity do not belong to you, and you may not have them. You will remove yourself right now in the name of Jesus. I am God’s child and He called me by name. He sees me, hears me, knows me, and loves me with a love I cannot even fathom. His love is perfect, and it surrounds me and according to His Word-perfect love cast out all fear. 1 John 4:18. God holds my past, present, and future in the palm of His hand and I have nothing to fear because I am His. I resist all attacks against the plans God has for me in the name of Jesus.

There have been times I have listened to your lies, but no more. I know the truth and the truth will set me free from your lies. John 8:32. I command every single one of your lies to break off my life in the name of Jesus. I command everything that has tried to attach to my identity that is not from God to strip away and break in the name of Jesus. I am who God says I am.

I walk in full submission to God. There is no room left in my life for you. I recognize you for exactly who and what you are. You are a liar and a thief, and you just want to kill, steal, and destroy my life, but Jesus came to give me abundant life. John 10:10. His abundance means I have been given His joy, peace, hope, and freedom. You cannot touch those things. They are mine and I command you to get your hands off them right now in the name of Jesus Christ.

I am a new creation in Christ. I have been joined to Him by faith. I am reborn and renewed by His precious Holy Spirit. The old me and the old things have passed away. He has made me brand new and new things have come. 2 Corinthians 5:17. Enemy, I will not allow you to tell me I am the same person I used to be. I also will not allow you to pull me back into my past. Those chains are broken in the name of Jesus, and He has set me free. Who the Son sets free is free indeed! John 8:36. My past can no longer hold me captive. That part of my life is dead and passed away. Everything is made new in Him, and your voice will no longer be allowed to dictate who I am. God’s voice will be the voice I listen to. I will no longer listen to any other voices. His voice will be my guide in all areas of my life, and I command your voices and lies to be silent in the name of Jesus. I command you to release my identity right now in the name of Jesus Christ.

My life is in His hands, and I choose to walk by faith and not by sight because I know He is working everything out for my good. 2 Corinthians 5:7; Romans 8:28.

I recognize the lies for exactly what they are, and they will not ever be exchanged for truth again. You have nothing for me enemy and you have no more power in my life in the name of Jesus. I see you for exactly who and what you are. You are a counterfeit, and you are not a creator. You did not and could not create me. You have tried to make me a counterfeit of what God intended for me to be, but He has unmasked your lies and I will not fall for them again. In the name of Jesus, I command you to take your lies and break them off my identity. I have been formed by the hands of the Creator of all things and I will never forget that.

Seeking God

Prayer

Lord, I will sit quietly waiting for You, and listening for Your voice. In the stillness I will find You. I will push passed the distractions that try to drown out Your voice and pull me away from You. I will turn my eyes and ears to You and only You. I will set my heart on You, Father, and nothing else. I will seek You with my whole heart.

You are my God. You are the lover of my soul. You are the one who created me. You knit me together and You know me well. You see me, You hear me, and You know me. I am seen by You! You are not distant and far off. You are right here with me. Even when I cannot sense Your presence You are with me.

My soul yearns for You. I am not complete if I am not walking with You and holding Your hand. There is a place in my heart that can only be filled by You. I was created with a need for You and when I neglect my time with You I do not feel complete. I feel undone and alone. I need You, Father, every single day of my life.

Please forgive me for the times I think I can do life on my own and try to figure things out on my own. I fully surrender my entire life to You, and I fully acknowledge I cannot do anything without You. I need Your guidance in every area of my life. My life is in Your hands.

I will seek you with my whole heart, holding nothing back from You because You deserve no less. I will seek You first. I will refuse to allow anything to come between us, even situations I cannot understand. When I walk through battles and everything in me tries to get me to doubt Your goodness I will turn to the truth found in You Word and stand by faith on who I know You are. I refuse all the lies of the enemy. I have a firm foundation in Your Word, and I will not be shaken. You are My God in the valley just as You are God when I am on the mountain top. On the good days You are good and on the bad days You are good. Circumstances do not change who You are or Your character. You are a good Father.

I love You!! In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Warfare

Listen enemy! I am seeking God with my whole heart. My life belongs to Him, and I am held in the palm of His hand. When you mess with me you are messing with a child of the Most High God. I am His. He sees me, knows me, and hears me. He answers when I call upon His name.

I command you to silence your lies in the name of Jesus. I hold up the shield of faith against you and according to God’s Word not one of your fiery darts may hit me. His Word also declares that even when the weapons form against me they shall not prosper—not one!

I command the attacks against my mind, life, and family to cease in the name of Jesus Christ. I cancel every demonic assignment over my life in the name of Jesus. Your lies have been exposed and the Word of God says I will know the truth and the truth will set me free. I pull down and replace every single one of your lies with the truth of God and His Word. I am free in the name of Jesus!!

Jeremiah 29:13

Then [with a deep longing] you will seek Me and require Me [as a vital necessity] and [you will] find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

Proverbs 8:17

I love those who love me; and those who seek me early and diligently will find me.

Armor of God

Prayer

Ephesians 6:10-18

Father, I am so thankful that You have not left me weaponless against the attacks of the enemy. I am so grateful for Your Word, armor, Holy Spirit, and the authority given to me through Jesus. I am so grateful Father.

Lord, I will be strong in You and in Your mighty power. It is by Your strength I win every battle. I will draw my strength from You, and I will be empowered through my relationship with You and the power of Your boundless might. I put on Your full armor so I can take my stand against the schemes of the devil and all his demons. I understand my struggle is not against flesh and blood. My fight is not with people. My fight is against the devil and his demons. Every single day I will put on Your full armor so that I can successfully stand up against all the schemes, strategies, and deceits of the devil and all his demons.

I will wear Your full armor so when I am attacked I can firmly stand my ground and not be over taken. After I have done everything that is required of me I will stand firm in my place, fully prepared, immovable, and victorious through You. I will hold my ground and not lose the territory You have given me.
I put on the Belt of Truth. I will walk in the truth of You, Lord, who You are and who I am in You. I will walk in the authority You have given me and stand against the enemy when he attacks. I will carry Your truth everywhere I go and teach others who they are in You.

I put on the Breastplate of Righteousness that protects my heart and other vital organs. I wear Your righteousness, Jesus, and fully recognize it is Your righteousness that allows me to boldly approach the throne room of God. I will rely on You and You alone. I will walk in You and only You.

I put on the Shoes of Peace to spread Your Gospel. I will walk in peace and bring peace to every situation I am involved in. I will not allow the enemy to steal the peace You have given me.

I take up the Shield of Faith to extinguish all the fiery darts of the enemy. I will hold the shield against every dart of the enemy and not one will penetrate the shield. It will protect against every attack the enemy throws at me.

I put on the Helmet of Salvation which is my hope in the You. It protects my mind against the enemy.

I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is Your Word. Your Word is living, active, and sharp. It stands against the enemy every time and allows me to walk in victory. When I speak Your Word, the enemy will have to flee.

Help me to pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and request, to be alert and to pray for my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Warfare

Demons, God has not left me defenseless against you. I have His full armor to stand against every single one of your attacks. I am strong in Him and His mighty power. By His strength I will every single battle. I use His armor to firmly stand my ground against all your attacks.

I wear His belt of Truth. The truth of who He is and who I am in Him. I will carry His Truth which is His Word everywhere I go. I share His Truth with others so they can also walk in freedom. You do not have a weapon that can overcome His Truth.

I wear His Breastplate of Righteousness that protects my heart and other vital organs against every single one of your attacks.

I wear the Shoes of Peace to spread His Gospel. I also chose to walk in His peace and bring His peace to every situation I am involved in. I will not allow you to steal the peace God have given me.

I carry the Shield of Faith to extinguish all the fiery darts you send my way. I will hold His shield against every single dart you shoot at me and not one will penetrate the shield. It will protect against every single attack.


I wear the Helmet of Salvation which is my hope in God. It protects my mind against the thoughts you try to put in my mind and the torment you try to bring to me. I am God’s. I belong to Him. I am in covenant with God and you cannot break that covenant.

I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is God’s Word. His Word is living, active, and sharp. It stands against your attacks every time and allows me to walk in victory. When I speak God’s Word, you must flee.

I will pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and request, to be alert and to pray for my brothers and sisters in Christ.

In the name of Jesus you will not defeat me.

Blessings,
