争战的祷告

    「天父啊我愿在你面前低头敬拜,赞美你的圣名。我在祷告中,要用主耶稣基督的宝血遮盖,做我的保护。我愿毫无保留的将生命完全献给你,撒但若从中拦阻,我已预备妥当来抵挡它一切的工作。我只愿与又真又活的上帝交通,拒绝撒但在我祷告中的扰乱。

    撒但,我奉主耶稣基督的名,命令你和你一切的差役从我面前离开,我将主耶稣基督的宝血摆在我们中间。

    慈悲的天父我敬拜、赞美你,我承认你配得一切的荣耀、尊贵和赞美,我愿重新保证对你的忠心,求赐福的圣灵帮助我祷告。感谢天父,因为你自亘古就爱我,差遣耶稣基督到这世界,为我受死,使我得赎。感谢主耶稣基督做我的替身,借着他的受死,上帝已经完全赦免我,并且赐给我永生。你将主耶稣基督完全的义加在我身上,使我现在就可以称义,在他里面得以完全。感谢上帝,因你将自己赐给我,做我每日的帮助和力量。

    天父求你启开我的眼睛,使我看出你是何等伟大。你为这个新的日子所预备的,又是何等完美。靠着主耶稣基督的名,我要大声宣告,一切执政的、掌权的和所有的邪灵,都必受我的辖制

    感谢上帝为我预备的军装,我愿束上真理的带子,佩上公义的护胸镜,穿上平安的鞋,戴上救恩的头盔,举起信德的藤牌,抵挡仇敌一切的火箭。手中拿着圣灵的宝剑,就是上帝的道,防备一切邪恶的力量,侵入我的生活,穿上这套军装,我愿在生活和祷告中,完全倚靠上帝和赐福的圣灵。

    感谢天父,因主耶稣已经毁灭了一切执政的和掌权的,公开显明他自己的得胜,今日我相信全部的得胜是属于我的,我在生活中要弃绝撒但的暗示、控告和引诱,只确信上帝的话是真实的,我今日选择生活在上帝话语的光照中。慈的天父,我愿过顺服的生活,与你相交,启开我的眼睛,向我显明不能讨你喜悦的事情。在我日常生活中不留给撒但任何地步来攻击我,指示我生活中的弱点及必须对付的地方,以致我能够讨你的喜悦,今日我愿接纳你和圣灵的事工。

    凭着信心和完全的交托,我愿意脱去旧人,进入主耶稣基督在十字架上所预备的得胜,使我的罪性得洁净。我愿穿上新人,进入复活的得胜,使我可以过着胜过罪恶的生活。今日,我脱去自私的旧性情,穿上慈爱的新性情;脱去惧怕的旧性情,穿上勇气的新性情;脱去软弱的旧性情,穿上大有力量的新性情;脱去各种诡诈私欲的旧性情,穿上公义洁净的新性情。

    我愿竭尽全力进入上帝儿子升天的得胜和荣耀,一切执政的和掌权的都受他的辖制。因为在主耶稣基督里,我是在基督得胜的地位,因此我就可以胜过一切的仇敌。荣耀的圣灵啊!求你充满我,进入我的生命,破除各种偶像的谎言,制服每一个仇敌。

    感谢天父,你的旨意已在圣经中向我显明,但愿我今日所行的都能合乎你的心意。使我在基督里得享一切属灵的福分,借着耶稣基督从死里复活,赐给我一个活泼的盼望,感谢你所预备的一切,使我今日可以过着圣灵充满的生活,有爱心、喜乐和节制。我承认这是你的旨意,我要抵挡撒但的一切作为,不使它的差役从我心中夺取上帝的旨意。在这个日子里,我愿弃绝感情用事,紧握信德的藤牌,抵挡撒但在我心中一切的控告和暗示。今日,我承认上帝已赐给我丰富的旨意。

    天父,靠主耶稣基督的名,我愿向你奉献我的全身作为一个活祭。我不愿效法这个世界,愿你使我的心意更新而变化,求上帝将你的旨意向我显明,使我今日能行在上帝丰富的旨意中。

    感谢天父,我们争战的兵器并不属乎血气的,乃是在上帝面前有能力,可以攻破坚固的营垒,将各样的计谋,各样拦阻,各样拦阻人认识上帝的自高之事一概攻破了,又夺回所有的人心,使他们都顺服基督。因此我在今日的生活中,我攻破撒但的营垒,毁坏它的各种计谋,攻破撒但攻击我心意的营垒。赐福的圣灵啊!求你使我的心意完全降服你。慈悲的天父,我确信,你所赐给我们的绝不是恐惧的心,乃是刚强仁爱谨守的心,我要攻破撒但进占我情感的营垒,我愿将我的情感献给你;我要攻破撒但进占我意志的营垒,我愿将我的意志献给你并做信心的抉择。我攻破撒但进占我身体的营垒,我愿将我的身体献给你,并且承认我的身体是你圣灵的殿,我因你的慈爱和良善而欢欣。

    慈悲的天父,求你在今日里使我的灵魂苏醒,将撒但的拦阻、试探、说谎、假冒和曲解真理的方法向我显明,使我做讨你喜悦的人。使我能够积极的祷告,以上帝的意念为意念,在我的生活中让你居首位。

    现在我愿再用主耶稣基督的宝血,做我的护卫。求赐福的圣灵,将耶稣所有被钉的工作、所有复活的工作、所有得荣耀的工作和所有五旬节的工作,今日运用在我的生活中。我愿降服于你,绝不灰心丧胆,你是赐给人盼望的上帝,藉着主耶稣从死里复活,已经显明你的大能。在各方面我自称在我的生活中可以借着你的得胜,胜过魔鬼的权势,我拒绝邪恶的力量。感谢祷告都是奉主耶稣基督的名,阿们!」

Warfare Prayer


    Heavenly Father, I bow in worship and praise before you. I cover myself with the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ as my protection during this time of prayer. I surrender myself completely and unreservedly in every area of my life to yourself. I do take a stand against all the workings of Satan that would hinder me in this time of prayer, and I address myself only to the true and living God and refuse any involvement of Satan in my prayer.

    Satan, I command you, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to leave my presence with all your demons, and I bring the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ between us.

    Heavenly Father, I worship You, and I give You praise. I recognize that You are worthy to receive all glory and honor and praise. I renew my allegiance to You and pray that the blessed Holy Spirit would enable me in this time of prayer. I am thankful, heavenly Father, that You have loved me from past eternity, that You sent the Lord Jesus Christ into the world to die as my substitute that I would be redeemed. I am thankful that the Lord Jesus Christ came as my representative, and that through Him You have completely forgiven me; You have given me eternal life; You have given me the perfect righteousness of the Lord Jesus Christ so I am now justified. I am thankful that in Him You have made me complete, and that You have offered Yourself to me to be my daily help and strength.

    Heavenly Father, come and open my eyes that I might see how great You are and how complete Your provision is for this new day. I do, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, take my place with Christ in the heavenlies with all principalities and powers (powers of darkness and wicked spirits) under my feet. I am thankful that the victory the Lord Jesus Christ won for me on the cross and in His resurrection has been given to me and that I am seated with the Lord Jesus Christ in the heavenlies; therefore, I declare that all principalities and powers and all wicked spirits are subject to me in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

    I am thankful for the armor You have provided, and I put on the girdle of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the sandals of peace, the helmet of salvation. I lift up the shield of faith against all the fiery darts of the enemy, and take in my hand the sword of the spirit, the Word of God, and use Your Word against all the forces of evil in my life; and I put on this armor and live and pray in complete dependence upon You, blessed Holy Spirit.

    I am grateful, heavenly Father, that the Lord Jesus Christ spoiled all principalities and powers and made a show of them openly and triumphed over them in Himself. I claim all that victory for my life today. I reject out of my life all the insinuations, the accusations, and the temptations of Satan. I affirm that the Word of God is true, and I choose to live today in the light of God's Word. I choose, heavenly Father, to live in obedience to You and in fellowship with Yourself. Open my eyes and show me the areas of my life that would not please You. Work in my life that there be no ground to give Satan a foothold against me. Show me any area of weakness. Show me any area of my life that I must deal with so that I would please You. I do in every way today stand for You and the ministry of the Holy Spirit in my life.

    By faith and in dependence upon You, I put off the old man and stand into all the victory of the crucifixion where the Lord Jesus Christ provided cleansing from the old nature. I put on the new man and stand into all the victory of the resurrection and the provision He has made for me there to live above sin. Therefore, in this day, I put off the old nature with its selfishness, and I put on the new nature with its love. I put off the old nature with its fear and I put on the new nature with its courage. I put off the old nature with its weakness and I put on the new nature with its strength. I put off today the old nature with all its deceitful lusts and I put on the new nature with all its righteousness and purity.

    I do in every way stand into the victory of the ascension and the glorification of the Son of God where all principalities and powers were made subject to Him, and I claim my place in Christ victorious with Him over all the enemies of my soul. Blessed Holy Spirit, I pray that You would fill me. Come into my life, break down every idol and cast out every foe.

    I am thankful, heavenly Father, for the expression of Your will for my daily life as You have shown me in Your Word. I therefore claim all the will of God for today. I am thankful that You have blessed me with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. I am thankful that You have begotten me unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. I am thankful that You have made a provision so that today I can live filled with the Spirit of God with love and joy and self-control in my life. And I recognize that this is Your will for me, and I therefore reject and resist all the endeavors of Satan and of his demons to rob me of the will of God. I refuse in this day to believe my feelings, and I hold up the shield of faith against all the accusations and against all the insinuations that Satan would put in my mind. I claim the fullness of the will of God for today.

    I do, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, completely surrender myself to You, heavenly Father, as a living sacrifice. I choose not to be conformed to this world. I choose to be transformed by the renewing of my mind, and I pray that You would show me Your will and enable me to walk in all the fullness of the will of God today.

    I am thankful, heavenly Father, that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, to the casting down of imaginations and every high thing that exalted itself against the knowledge of God, and to bring every thought into obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore in my own life today I tear down the strongholds of Satan, and I smash the plans of Satan that have been formed against me. I tear down the strongholds of Satan against my mind, and I surrender my mind to You, blessed Holy Spirit. I affirm, heavenly Father, that You have not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. I break and smash the strongholds of Satan formed against my emotions today, and I give my emotions to You. I smash the strongholds of Satan formed against my will today, and I give my will to You, and choose to make the right decisions of faith. I smash the strongholds of Satan formed against my body today, and I give my body to You, recognizing that I am Your temple; and I rejoice in Your mercy and Your goodness.

    Heavenly Father, I pray that now through this day You would quicken me; show me the way that Satan is hindering and tempting and lying and counterfeiting and distorting the truth in my life. Enable me to be the kind of person that would please You. Enable me to be aggressive in prayer. Enable me to be aggressive mentally and to think Your thoughts after You, and to give You Your rightful place in my life.

    Again, I now cover myself with the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and pray that You, blessed Holy Spirit, would bring all the work of the crucifixion, all the work of the resurrection, all the work of the glorification, and all the work of Pentecost into my life today. I surrender myself to You. I refuse to be discouraged. You are the God of all hope. You have proven Your power by resurrecting Jesus Christ from the dead, and I claim in every way Your victory over all satanic forces active in my life, and I reject these forces; and I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ with thanksgiving. Amen.
