Dear Father in Heaven, I humbly come before You today to ask for Your strength, power, and influence in my life. Fortify my spirit, so that as spiritual attacks come, I can fend off those onslaughts.

Spiritual Warfare Prayer For Healing
Dear God, Thank You for blessing me. I am so grateful for the guidance I receive in Your Holy Bible. I am grateful for the opportunity to pray and for my loving friends and family who support me as I strive to be righteous in all that I do. God, I have had to face many spiritual battles. Daily I face the temptation to turn away from You and to turn towards hatred, lust, envy, pride, and doubt. I try each day to focus on the teachings of Jesus Christ. I try to share those teachings with the people I love. However, God, it is exhausting. The world and Satan would have me doubt my place in Your kingdom, and at times it takes all of the energy I have to defend my spirit from these attacks. God, I pray that You will heal my spirit. Fortify it with the strength to recover each time I face attacks on my spiritual strength. Heal my heart from the ache that comes from failing and trying again. Send comfort to my heart as I watch others struggle as well. I pray that You will help me regain my strength to keep trying and defending righteousness around me. I pray today in the healing name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
