Oh, Abba...my Father in heaven. I come to You in the precious name of Your Son, JESUS. Today I submit myself to You and Your will for my life. I ask Father that you will forgive me for any unconfessed sin and mistakes in my life according to Your promise in 1 John 1:9. I want nothing in my life to hinder Your answering this prayer. Thank You, Abba, for granting to me the privilege of interceding for someone else. How great and awesome You are!

Abba, I come to You in behalf of ________. He/she does not realize that they're in the middle of a spiritual battle. I believe that the powers of darkness, satan's evil angels are having an influence in ________'s life. JESUS promised His followers authority over satan and his evil angels in Mark 16:17 and Matthew 12:29, Abba. I want to claim that authority right now in the event that it is demons who are harassing him/her.

Now demons, forces of darkness, listen. In the mighty name of JESUS CHRIST I command you to take your hands off of ______ and get out of his/her life. I claim him/her for JESUS and plead the merits of His precious blood to cover_______ until they can claim it for himself/herself. In JESUS' mighty name I bind you and cast you where He wants you to go.

Father...Abba, I ask that You will back up this authority with the power of Your HOLY SPIRIT and angels that excel in power and strength. I commit this child into Your hands according to Your promise of 2 Timothy 1:12, that You will take care of that which I commit to You until that day!

Also, Abba, bind ________with cords of CHRIST's blood, hedge him/her in so that no evil can prevail in their life. And if there are people in ________'s life that satan or his demons are using to influence him/her the wrong way, I urge You to turn them away and make it so that they cannot stand each others presence.

Thank You, Abba, that You have made all the resources of heaven available to those seeking to save the lost. Thank You for hearing and answering this prayer, because I ask it in the precious name of JESUS. Amen.
