Prayers to Break Strongholds

Updated: Jul 7

Breaking strongholds of the mind prayer

Father, In the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, I now approach Your throne in an extreme emergency in a time of great need.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, as You already know, I have demons attacking me from the outside and possibly from the inside of my being. I know why they are in my life. I have done some terrible and evil things in my life. I have horribly transgressed against both You and all of Your basic laws and commandments with the sins I have committed against You.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I first want to say to You that I am really sorry for doing all these bad and evil things against You. There is no excuse for the kind of behavior that I have exhibited over the years. But Father, I now want to take a strong stand. I do not want any more part of this evil and sinful lifestyle. I know now that You are My only hope and My only salvation to be able to deliver me from the demonic bondage I now find myself enslaved in as a result of crossing over into these kinds of heavier sins.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I ask that You please have mercy on my soul and that You please forgive me for all of the sins and atrocities that I have personally committed against You under the blood that Your one and only Son Jesus Christ has personally shed for me on the cross.

1. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I now want to formally confess all of the bad, evil, and sinful things I have personally done against You. Father, I now confess to you the following things as being sins and extreme abominations in Your sight:

My involvement in drugs.
My involvement in sex, fornication, unnatural and unholy sex acts â€“ such as homosexual acts and thoughts, and being involved in a swingers-type lifestyle.
My use of all kinds of pornography.
My past adulterous affairs and activities.
All of my past thefts and covetousness.
All of the envy and jealousy I have ever shown against anyone, and all of my lying and deceit that I have ever been involved in.
I have shown or manifested all of the pride, impatience, hate, and rage over the years.
All of my involvement in some occult arts, such as witchcraft, invocation of demon spirits, and tarot cards.
All of the times that I have personally cursed You and prayed to other false gods.
Breaking most of Your 10 commandments to one degree or another.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I now know that all of the above activities were evil, heinous sins and abominations in your sight. I am so sorry for going this far against You.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, know that Your Son Jesus Christ has died for all my sins. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I now ask that You please forgive me for every one of the sins and transgressions I have committed against You. Let the Blood of Your Most Holy Son, Jesus Christ, thoroughly wash away every ounce of stench and these sins committed against You.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, you tell me in Your Word that if I am willing to confess my sins and agree to repent, You will fully forgive me and cleanse me from all unrighteousness. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I now ask that You please forgive me for all of my sins that I have committed against You through the blood that Your Son Jesus Christ has shed for me on the cross. I now believe that my sins have been completely forgiven and thoroughly washed away by the Blood of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I now want to agree to also renounce every single one of the above sins. You have my word that I will never attempt to go back into any area with the occult, any area with sexual fornication, or any involvement in any kind of drug use whatsoever.

Father, in Jesus' name, I now officially renounce all of the above sins and transgressions committed against You. Breaking Demonic Strongholds: If you were raped:

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the next thing I need to take care of is when my father raped me as a young child. I now know that what he did was evil and wrong in Your sight. However, I will choose not to hold any unforgiveness towards him.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I choose with my own free will to fully forgive him for what he did to me when I was a young child. My father and the judgment on his life will now fall into Your hands, not mine. I hold no hate or animosity toward him. Please have mercy on his soul when he has to face You for his judgment. I now fully forgive him for what he has done to me.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I now believe that all of my sins, transgressions, and abominations against You have been fully forgiven under the shed blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Father, I thank You for having this kind of mercy on my soul and that You have made a way of forgiveness for me through the Blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, with all of my sins and transgressions against You now being fully forgiven me. I now want to once and for all break the legal rights these demons have had over me over all of these years.

Father, in Jesus' name, I now ask that You entirely break the legal rights of these demons. I now ask that You break entirely and completely sever every single one of their legal rights due to my involvement in the above sin areas. Father, in Jesus' name, I now want to personally come against these legal rights myself operating under Your authority and Your anointing to be able to do so. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I also want to reaffirm with you, as I did the other day, that I have now fully surrendered my body, soul, spirit, and entire life into Your hands. I now ask that You place me into Your perfect will for my life. I am now willing to fully follow You all the rest of the days of my life. I will now be guided by Your Holy Spirit from this moment on you, and I will never cross back over into the sin-filled life I used to live in. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I now belong to You, and You alone. You, and You alone, are my Rock and my Salvation. I will look to no other. My life is now totally in Your hands. Father, from this moment on, I will fully follow You and serve You for the rest of my eternal life. Amen!
