Prayers for Deliverance

Prayer For Deliverance From A Worldly Mindset

Dear Heavenly Father, You know that I trusted in the Lord Jesus many years ago and the joy and love and excitement that I felt in those days has gradually leaked away. I feel so far away from You, estranged from the God who created me and the Saviour Who died on the cross to pay the price for my sins.

Lord, it is as if I have been covered with a worldly and fleshly shroud that has caused me to wander so far away from You, that I have become more like the world than many that are in the world. Forgive me Lord, for wandering so far from You. Forgive me for being pulled so far away from You and back into the ways of the world. Forgive me for my worldly ways and my fleshly desires. Forgive me for leaving my first Love, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Deliver me I pray, from the life into which I have now become so embroiled and return to me the joy of my Salvation. Deliver me from this fleshly mindset that has swamped the heart of Christ, from Whom I gained such joy and peace. Lord, I kneel before You broken-hearted and truly sorry for all my sins and rebellious ways. I want to turn away from all these fleshly lusts and look to Jesus, Whom I know is the only secure Deliverer from all that I have become so embroiled in. Thank You, that even though I have proved so faithless You have remained Faithful and True. Cleanse me and wash me and renew a right spirit within me, and may I sing to Your praise and glory until my life’s end. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Prayer For Deliverance From Enemies

Dear Lord, I ask You to hear my prayer and to listen to my cry for help. Lord, I know that in and of myself I am not worthy to approach Your glory, but I know that in Christ I may come boldly to Your throne of grace, to find help from You in time of need. Lord, I am in a time of need now, and ask Father, that You would deliver me from all my enemies and from those that are seeking to harm me. Lord, I trust in You and I know that You are mighty to save and Your Word promises that You are faithful and true.

Lord, there are many problems that are surrounding me at the moment and each one has the potential to overwhelm me, but I am looking to You for help and I am trusting in You for my deliverance. Teach me the way that I should go and deliver me from the many ‘enemies’ that are surrounding and threatening me. Help me to rest in You and to cast my problems and burdens at Your feet, for You are my God in Whom I trust. In Jesus' name,

Amen.

Prayer Of Deliverance From Fear

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your greatest gift of love, in sending the Lord Jesus to die for me on the cross and that in so doing, He demonstrated His tremendous love for me. Lord, I know that I am saved and secure in Christ, but Lord so often my mind gives way to many different kinds of fear, fears within and fears without, and sometime I find that fear seems to overwhelm me, and yet You have told in Your word that perfect love casts out fear.

Lord, I know that Your love is perfect and my love is weak, but it is when I am weak that the fears seem to flood my heart and overwhelm my soul. And yet Your Word says that when I am weak then I am strong. Help me Lord, to combat this fear and to rest my weary frightened soul at Your feet. Help me Lord, to understand these comforting words and to know how to apply them in my life.

Teach me how to walk in spirit and truth, and help me to take every fearful thought captive and hand it over to You in prayer and praise, the instance that it arises in my heart. Enable me in the power of Your Holy Spirit, to allow Your strength to be made perfect in my weakness, knowing that the Holy Spirit of God Who indwells me is greater that all the combined worries, anxieties, fear and problems that I have, put together. Thank You, that in Jesus I can find my strength and my deliverance. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Prayer For Deliverance From Sinful Habits

Heavenly Father, I come to You humbled in heart and in submission to Your Holy Spirit, knowing that I have indulged in sinful habits and have turned a blind eye to the evil habits in which I have been dabbling. Lord, I ask Your forgiveness and want to turn right away from all that has captured my soul, and live a life that is pleasing to You and righteous in Your sight.

For too long I have winked at my own sin and pretended that it is ok, but I want to be honest before You and renounce the sinful habits that I have enjoyed for a season, but which leave such a bitter taste in my mouth once the initial rush of pleasure has gone.

Lord, I know I have sinned against others for which I ask Your forgiveness, but most of all I have sinned against You and I know that I am not worthy to tie Your shoe-laces or eat the crumbs that drop from Your table, but You are faithful to fulfil Your promises to me and have brought me into Your family and my heart just wants to praise and thank You. Help me from this day forward to live a life that pleases You. I ask this in Jesus' name,

Amen.

Prayer Of Deliverance From Spiritual Apathy

Loving Lord, I ask You to deliver me from any spiritual apathy and luke-warmedness that has crept into my life almost unseen, as I have drifted away from Your arms of grace.

I know in my heart that I have left my first love, the Lord Jesus Christ, and have neglected the things that I ought to do while doing all the things that I should not have been doing.

Lord, I ask Your forgiveness.

I come to You now in sorrow of heart, knowing that I have wasted such precious time, as I recall the beautiful fellowship we once enjoyed. But Lord in Your grace, I ask that You restore me and refresh me and renew a right spirit within me. Revive my flagging spirit with the breath of life from Your Spirit of joy, for in You is life and joy and love for evermore.

Thank You Lord, that when I am faithless, You remain faithful and true forever. Praise Your holy name,

Amen.

Unbelievers Prayer Of Deliverance From Sin

Dear God, I am a sinner and I know that I have broken many of Your laws. Forgive me I pray. I did not realise how sin separated me from You, but I do now and I am so sorry that I have been so sinful and rebellious towards You. Thank You for sending Jesus to die for my sins and for taking the punishment that I justly deserve. Thank You, that Jesus delivered me from the punishment I deserve and thank You, that He rose again which means that He has broken the power of sin and death in my life, so that I too may not face eternal separation from You but live with You in heaven forever.

Thank You, Lord, that You have given this to me as a free gift of Your grace and all You asked of me was simply to believe that You died for my sins. I am overwhelmed to realise how much You love me, enough to die for me. Thank You for delivering me from sin and saving me. Thank You with all my heart. Help me not sin anymore, but to live a life that is pleasing to You. In Jesus' name,

Amen.
