Man-Protected-by-the-Shield-of-Faith-350-webRead the following scriptures out loud to yourself every day until faith springs in your heart:

I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil….they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. John 17:15,16

Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you….come close to God, and He will come close to you. James 4:7,8

Who ever is born of God does not practice sin; but he that is born of God keeps (to guard as a fortress with God’s armor) himself, and that wicked one touches him not. 1 John 5:18

Look, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Luke 10:19

There is no temptation (tests and trials brought by satan) that can come upon you but such as is common to man (things in this natural, carnal world): but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted (attacked by satan with testing and trials) beyond what you can handle; but will with the temptation (at the same time) also make a way to escape, that you may be able to have victory over it. 1 Corinthians 10:13

He that dwells in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty….I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust….surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler (devil), and from the noisome pestilence (wicked and perverse plagues)….He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you shall trust: His truth (God’s Word) shall be your shield and buckler….you shall not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day….nor for the pestilence (plague, disease) that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday….a thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you….only with your eyes shall you look and see the reward of the wicked….because you have made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, your habitation….there shall no evil come near you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling….for He shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways….they shall bear (help, hold up) you up in their hands, lest you stumble your foot against a stone….you shall tread upon the lion and adder (the twisted): the young lion and the dragon (serpent) you shall trample under foot….because he hath set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he has known My Name….he shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him….with long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation (deliverance). Psalms 91:1-16

Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might….put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles (trickery) of the devil….for we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places….wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand….stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness….and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace….above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench (put a stop to) all the fiery darts (tests, trials) of the wicked….and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God….praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; Ephesians 6:10-18

  1. Asking that you all pray for me and children. Dealing with depression and failed marriage with no support system.

  2. I need prayers tremendously right now I can sleep at night. Since I was a child I always saw my past family members n friends visited me in my dreams which I call nightmares now and I have these evil, demonic nightmares that I cant get out of. I start saying prayers over n over again but they wont go away. Most of them are the same nightmares with dead bodies laying next to me then the devil talking to me. Im screaming n crying in my nightmare but my finace says he dont hear me. And its like a spirit jumping into my body and I cant get it out. I know it sounds strange but its all true. My grandmother was born with a white veil over her head and my mother said I was given a special power to see dead people but I dont want this power im afraid of it. When my son was around 3 years old he was describing our dead family members to us that he said visited him that night too. Here he is now 19 and still sometimes sees them again.
    Also, Its very strange because in 2002 three days before I was to get married. I was involved in a motorcycle accident and I had 11 broken bones from my face to my wrist to all of my back n tailbone. Well I had a dream the night before that I got into a bad accident and that I nearly lost my life in an accident n messed up my face n back. I didnt think about it until I was laying in the hospital bed that I should of listened to my dream. I really think God was trying to tell me something because I didnt get married until three months after and my marriage ended in a domestic abuse n a divorce 10 years later. So I guess God was telling me not to marry this low life man.
    Im asking for prayers for me and my family right now and I need your help.
    Thank you n God Blessan

    1. You need deliverance and physiological support to heal the effects of trauma. Im a dual natured clinician & biblical somatic-based counselor who’s overcome severe ptsd & much more. Im praying for you! With jesus, you can, will and already are healed by His stripes. God bless

  3. Hi everyone. My friend who is 14 is harassed by demons. She used to see them when she was younger but now they visit her in dreams. She has encountered unnatural things happening, and so have I since she shared her secrets. She has woken up naked and she couldn’t have done that to herself, she has nightmares where holy objects have shattered, and she refuses to tell anyone. I would greatly appreciate prayers for her. Thanks

  4. Hello everyone. My brother and his wife have been married for 10 years now, and they have 2 daughters. He has cheated on her a few times which we continue to pray for his redemption. However he became involved with a really evil woman, called Reshmi. This affair got out of hand, and his wife found out. My brother lied to cover up and has been lying since then. This woman hacked into his company emails, and found all our email addresses. She then started emailing filthy, disgusting, abusive emails with sexual detail to all of us (family members) and his wife’s family members. She has been harassing my poor sister-in-law, and my sister and my brother. She tells my sister-in law about so called dates and times & places she was with my brother. Most of this information proved to be lies. In all this time, our families have not confronted this woman.
    She has threatened my brother, extorted money from him and still has contact with him. This evil woman owns a SPA called MOHINI MADAM in South Africa, Pietermaritzburg. This affair has ended up with the police, investigators and finally in the courts, and protection and restraining orders were put in place, but to no avail. My brother and his family are controlled by this woman. She tortures them daily with text messages, hoax calls, lies and she has even turned up at his offices screaming & making scenes. I am convinced she is Satan in disguise and I have phoned the Pastor for help. I also need to pray in earnest for the Lord to remove this demon from our lives and deal with her. Please help us all. Please. It’s been going on for almost 2 years. Please pray and help against this demonic forces.

  5. To Faith Mechanic: I was re-reading your response to Valerei on 9/8. You spoke about enforcing protection through salvation by serious and persistent prayer. What do you mean by serious and persistent prayer. I feel as if I’m under attack from the enemy. It’s hard to sleep……among other things. I know I need to engage in serious and persistent prayer. I don’t know where to begin.

    1. Hello, i already replied above but insomnia is major & how demons attempt to harrass kill & destroy during 1-4am peak hours. They used to try killing me by choking me where i couldnt breathe. THEIR ACTIVITY IS CONNECTED TO PAST WOUNDS. I had a sibling who used to choke me (domestic violence) & many many other somatic injuries all related to my throat, inability to speak (esp gods word), etc. its enemy trying to abort my testimony & life calling.
      Sleep with your bible next to you. If it happens again, hold on to it while pleading the blood of jesus and asserting you belong to God thru Jesus Christ. Evil has no legal right/ authority over you.

      1. Author

        Amira – Holding your Bible next to you on the outside does absolutely nothing. What matters is how much Bible you have on the inside. The blood of Jesus works when you believe it, not when you do some special physical action or thing.

        Everything in God depends on faith in His word and in His Name. It is true, evil has no legal right over us, but we must enforce our legal rights through faith. And faith comes by putting the word in our hearts and spending time with the Holy Spirit.

        1. Yes, of course re having His word in our hearts and then applying it. Thats obvious. The bible has so much power that indeed merely putting your hand on it & professing the name of jesus causes demons to flee. You need to be more sensitive in your reply. How can one claim scripture when they’re being chocked & cannot speak? It was almost physically impossible just getting the word/name jesus out when chocked in the spiritual realm.compassion for others goes a long way often more so than educating people.
          Blessings

      Shon – One aspect of what I meant is taking the word of God and finding scriptures like the ones on this page, and speaking them out of your mouth. Personalize them and mediate on them. Then speak to the situation.

      Talk to God about the scriptures and the situation, and talk to the situation about God and the scriptures. Work to submit yourself to God, and then let the word of God come out of your mouth in true authority. Seek God and wait on Him for guidance. Be patient but expect Him to speak. Follow the leading of the scriptures and the leading of the Holy Spirit.

      Authority over the devil does not just happen. It is not enough to just submit unto God. You must submit and also use the authority that He has given in His name. Read our articles by Smith Wigglesworth, John G Lake, and Kenneth E Hagin. You will pick up what true authority really is. Humility and obedience to God – love and patience to others – and authority over the world and demons. God bless.

  6. Thank you for these scriptures. For the past few nights, I have been plagued by nightmares. These scriptures give me peace. God bless this website.

  7. Thank you, in my dreams I am plagued my evil and demons but you taking the time to post this has helped me greatly. God Bless you

  8. Hello I am looking for help in prayer please! I am told there’s someone doing something against me not physically But spiritually I do pray hard but now when I am alone I get these feelings that are not from me and having a baby to look after is not good to have this feeling especially when I’m alone when it happens I pray.. the devil is trying to confuse and make me think I am someone I’m not I being myself would never want to hurt anyone… i want I need this to stop even though I get this crazy feelings I never act on them because I start to pray … God Bless you all & thank you

    Please don’t judge me I am not crazy

    1. I cannot believe what I just read because my mother in law just shared something with me yesterday that she went through when her daughter was born. She had these same crazy thoughts that I will not post for the world to see. But the key to the problem is worship. When these thoughts come, worship The Lord – sing, shout, dance…whatever. But worship. Satan will flee. He can’t stand in the presence of worship to Jesus.

      1. Thank you Lynn for taking time to write to me I will take your advice I have an 11 year old but all is ok when she is home as I am told it’s her biological father that is working against me in the spirit world he messes with that stuff… i have been trying to just keep calm and not pay mind an it was working until my husband went out of town Friday it’s like my ex new my daughter has visitation with him but I tell her not to talk about my private life or me at all so I hope she isn’t… i know that JESUS is bigger then all of that so I have faith none of it will affect me. I won’t let those thoughts come to life in JESUS name Amen! By the way my sisters name is rea-lynn pretty cool 🙂 God Bless you and your family.

  9. I need a prayer to pray everyday, for along time now I have being going through a rough time in my life I was homeless to appoint where my family turned against me. I pray all the time I am a woman of God everywhere I go people envy me so bad. I am a dreamer and I believe some is working against me because they envy, I have been told that the person who is doing this is a dark skin person that is round frame at her stomach I was told by a profit of God. I have two children one of them was murdered Sept. 10,2011. I’m always prayer for protection over me and my 13yr old son I surely don’t want to experience that ever again
    in my life. I just recently bought a car July 23 2013. I have been driving my car now for a month, I received a letter in the mail telling me I got to return the car because the loan didn’t go through can you please help me to understand what is happening and why. I am a good hearted person who help people and treat people how I want to be treated.

  10. I need these scriptures so much, we moved to our home eight years ago, worked very hard to improve it and create a lovely, peaceful environment. However, we have a terrible neighbor who has taken and misunderstood an event and has harassed us for nearly five years now, he fires off guns when we are out in our yard to intimidate us, thrown garbage in our yard, accused us of things we haven’t done. We cannot talk with him as all he does is yell at scream at us, he has harassed the previous renter here before us and others in the neighborhood as well. We have spoken with law enforcement but we live in a rural area where guns are allowed. I pray for him, we cannot afford to move, please pray for us and him as well. This is very difficult.

    1. Valerei have your pastor and a group of christians come and anoint your house with oil. I had a similar incident. The key is to pray and speak scripture and spend time in worship and get in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ. Also, I leave christian music on all day long. I just adjust the volume. We know a praise report will come out of this.You just have to have crazy Faith!!!
      Valerie “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from me,” says the Lord. Isaiah 54:17
      Psalm 91

      Psalm 91:1-16
      You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who spend your nights in the shadow of the Almighty, who say to the LORD, “My refuge! My fortress! My God, in whom I trust!” – He will rescue you from the trap of the hunter, and from the plague of disease. He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you will find refuge; His truth is a shield and a protection.

      You will not fear the terrors of night, or the arrow that flies by day, or the sickness that roams in the dark, or even the destruction that lays waste at noon. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it won’t come near you. Only keep your eyes open, and you will see how the wicked are punished. For you have made the LORD, the Most High, who is my refuge, your dwelling place. No disaster will happen to you, no calamity will come near your house; for He will order His angels to care for you and guard you wherever you go. They will carry you in their hands, so that you won’t trip on a stone. You will tread down lions and snakes, young lions and serpents you will trample underfoot.

      “Because he loves Me, I will rescue him; because he knows My Name, I will protect him. He will call upon Me, and I will answer him. I will be with him when he is in trouble. I will rescue him and bring him honor. I will satisfy him with long life and show him My salvation.”

  15. I am working in a place that is demonic, to say the least. The management uses satanic powers to conduct business and manipulate the employees. I bind the forces every day and it makes them angry. I need prayer to break the chains and fetters and to set the captives free. I believe this is my assignment from God.

    1. Pamela,
      Be very careful. Remember what Acts 19:15 shows us. In this verse we see that the evil spirits leaped upon the individual who did not have the power or authority to cast out the evil spirits. I would suggest that you run and run fast. Jesus cover and protect Pamela with your precious blood in Jesus name amen.

  16. Please pray for my husbands protection as he travels back to the US.Also for me to be strong.I thank you.

    1. Father God we pray for Lind’s husband Lord send your angels around him. Lord Jesus cover him with your precious blood. Thank you Lord for answering our prayer.

      The Lord will preserve him and keep him alive, and he will be blessed on the earth; You will not deliver him to the will of his enemies.
      Psalm 41:2

      For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the LORD.
      Jeremiah 29:11,13-14

      Psalm 91
      Because you have made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, your habitation….there shall no evil come near you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling….for He shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways….they shall bear (help, hold up) you up in their hands, lest you stumble your foot against a stone….you shall tread upon the lion and adder (the twisted): the young lion and the dragon (serpent) you shall trample under foot….because he hath set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he has known My Name….he shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him….with long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation (deliverance).

  18. Please pray for me and my family there is evil in my life that refuses to leave.

    1. J do not be afraid God is in you. “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from me,” says the Lord. Isaiah 54:17 Stand firm and speak the scriptures on Confession – Protection From Evil and Scriptures on Protection. Read Psalm 91 everyday and during the day memorize as many scriptures keep speaking scriptures over you and you family. Pray: Jesus cover me and my family with your precious blood in Jesus name Amen.

  19. Paul , Jesus is with you. You shall hide Paul in the secret place of Your presence Jesus from the plots of man; You shall keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. Psalm 31:20 As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him. Psalm 18:30
    To God be the glory! Amen and Amen!!!

  20. God bless you all Love these scriptures they calm my heart in the storm, God is on the throne He is Lord whom shall we fear? hahahahaha awesome God we serve

  21. I Declare

    Joel Osteen /2012

    Our words have creative power. Any time you speak something, either good or bad; you give life to what you are saying. Scripture says, “We will eat the fruit of our words.” That means you will get exactly what you’ve been saying. You are prophesying your own future. That’s why it’s so important to send your words out in the direction you want your life to go. You can’t talk defeat and expect to have victory. You can’t talk lack and expect to have abundance. You will produce whatever you say.

    Are you declaring the blessing of God over your life? Are you speaking His promises? Have you ever noticed that many of His promises are in the past tense? For example, in Ephesians God says, “I have blessed you with every spiritual blessing.” In Colossians He says, “I have made you worthy.” In Psalms He says, “I have surrounded you with favor as a shield.” These are all past tense, like it’s already happened. In order to activate His blessing, you have to come into agreement with what God has already declared about you. That’s faith!

    Maybe you don’t necessarily feel blessed today. A lot of things may be coming against you in your family, finances or health. But that doesn’t change the Word of God. Circumstances don’t change what God says about you. However, what God says about you can change your circumstances. You are the deciding factor. Instead of talking about your circumstances, be bold and say, “God, if You say I’m blessed, then I believe I’m blessed! My checkbook may not say I’m blessed. The economy may not say I’m blessed. The medical report may not say I’m blessed. But God, I know You are the ultimate authority, and if You say I’m blessed, then I declare that I am blessed!”

    When you get into agreement with God like that in your thoughts, words and actions, it opens supernatural doors and sets the blessing in motion. It allows Him to release the promises that already have your name on them! You can pull it out of the unseen spiritual realm over into the physical, seen realm. That’s what the Bible means when it says, “God speaks of nonexistent things as if they already existed.”

    I want you to live the abundant, blessed, joy-filled life that Jesus came to give you and understand that the power of your words is a major key. That’s why I’ve written my new book, I Declare – 31 Promises to Speak Over Your Life. I want you to bless your future one day at a time, one month at a time. My hope is that you’ll pick up a copy and take just a moment each day to bless your future with one of the faith-filled declarations. I Declare. So order your copy today and begin to declare God’s blessing in every area of your life!

    1. At Yoli,
      I was reading your blog on how we should see God and receive His word about us! I thought it sounded like Pastor Joel speaking, until I looked up at the name of the person who was writing this blog and saw that this is from Pastor Joel’s book. I attend Lakewood regularly and hear this all the time. Which is a good thing! Keep doing a good work in the Lord, I’m proud of you!

      1. Thank you Joel Osteen is one of my best friends. I love his ministry. God bless him and God bless you Orlando. Remember God’s timing is always right. Nothing is impossible with God.Luke 1:37
        Jesus loves you!
        Yoli

  22. Thank you so much for these. I am under constant attack at work and these have given me strength to fight back with the word.

  23. Thank you we all need this word of encouragement, i am being surrounded by the attacks of the enemy..it’s like all hell is breaking loose in my life right now..

    1. Author

      Susan,
      I am praying for you. Just know that someone is on your side. Stand against the attacks one-by-one. When you look at all of them together, it can appear overwhelming. You are on the right path. Get these scriptures in your heart and talk to God. He is there and in you. I pray for favor and mercy to be all over you.

    1. I’m reading this while rebuking spirits. I’m wondering if those who feel them different places who have said outloud in faith “Jesus Christ is Lord” & have been baptized if you’ve received the gift of discernment of spirits. If so then you should also be able to feel the presence of Yeshua & the angels God has sent to help/minister to you. Therefore, submit yourselves to the will of God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Speak the Word outloud & confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord! Make sure you have no bad movies, books, cds, pictures, etc that have something against God. Repent any sins & ask God to help you not sin against Him. We know that we have been given dominon over the enemy in Christ name & your house must be cleasned by Jesus! Not in your own power.
      These are good scriptures! Some I already use. Others I will add. I’ve also had persons possessed approach me out of nowhere in public. They Denver the gift from the Holy Spirit. Do Not challenge them. Say, “The Lord does rebuke you”. Stand firm spiritually in your faith & trust in God to deal with them. Your largest weapon is Faith in the great I Am & dependence on Jesus Christ! Amen!
