Warfare: Psalms Part 4 (Psalms 31-45)

NB-1: These prayers are intended as a start - may the Holy Spirit take over your warfare prayers.

NB-2: Never pray against people but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood (Eph 6:12).

Adapted Prayer (see scriptures used below)

In You, O Lord, do we put our trust, let us never be ashamed, deliver us in Your righteousness. Bow down Your ear to us, deliver us speedily, be our strong rock, a house of defense to save us. For You are our rock and our fortress, therefore for the sake of Your name, lead us and guide us.

Pull us out of the net that any principality, any power, any ruler of the darkness of this world, and any spiritual wickedness in any high place has laid privily for us, for You are our strength. Into Your hand we commit our spirits, You have redeemed us, O Lord God of truth. You have known our soul in adversities and have not delivered us into the hands of the enemy.

Our times are in Your Hand, deliver us from the hands of our enemies and from them that persecute us. Deliver us from every principality, every power, every ruler of the darkness of this world, every spiritual wickedness in any high place. Make Your face to shine upon us, save us for Your mercies’ sake.

You are our hiding place, You shall preserve us from trouble, You shall compass us about with songs of deliverance. Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon we who fear Him, upon we who hope in His mercy to deliver our souls from death, and to keep us alive in famine. Our soul waits for the Lord, He is our help and our shield. The Lord redeems the soul of His servants, and none of them that trust in Him shall be desolate. He has brought us up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set our feet upon a rock and established our goings. O send out Your light and Your truth! Let them lead us. Let them bring us unto Your holy hill and to Your tabernacles.

Drive out every principality, every power, every ruler of the darkness of this world, every spiritual wickedness in any high place with Your Hand, and cast them out. You are our King, O God, command deliverances for us. Through You will we push down our enemies, through Your Name will we tread them under that rise up against us. For we will not trust in our bow, neither shall our sword save us but You have saved us from our enemies, and have put them to shame that hated us.
