Feeling an evil presence living among you is frightening, and all you want for it to do is go away. Here are 10 powerful prayers for demons to leave your home.
Prayer for Divine Power
Victorious Lord, You have told us that though we live in this world, we do not wage war as the world does. This could never be more evident than when I look at what is going on in my home. An evil spirit has taken up residence there, and this is not of the physical world. I know our actions can sometimes open us up to the influence of evil. Please forgive me if I am cherishing sin in my heart. Grant me Your wisdom to see if I have strongholds of sin that are inviting this presence. Precious Lord, I pray that You would give me mighty weapons to pull down any strongholds of sin that exist. Unleash Your divine power in my life and bring my every thought and action into obedience to Christ. Amen.
Prayer for My Shield of Protection
O Lord, my Great Defender, what trial is this that You have set before me? Demons in Your child’s home? Could it be? Yes, it is true. My heart struggles with the reality that evil has come near me, even though You have promised that it would not. I must think, then, that the nearness I perceive is not truly near because You stand between me and the evil. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for being my Shield that deflects the arrows of the evil one. They fall useless around me because of Your outstretched arm. So, I do not fear this evil in my home. I instead stand my ground with Christ, my Shield, before me and wait for the enemy to flee. Amen.
Prayer for the Covering of His Armor
O Mighty God, my home has turned into a spiritual battleground overnight. I have experienced fighting spiritual battles over lost souls and personal victories over sin. However, this is the first time I have had the fight come into my home. Your Word tells me that my struggle is not against flesh and blood, but is against spiritual authorities. I am dependent upon You to fight this battle for me. I will take up Your whole armor and stand against the plans of evil one. My strength is in Christ, and the covering of Your armor. Please teach me to stand my ground in Christ, and may You receive glory through my faith in Your protection. Please take back Your ground and crush the demon in my home. Amen.
Prayer for Him to Wrap Me in His Arms
All-powerful Father, I am being terrorized by a demon in my home. I know I have no power to fight an evil spirit because I am flesh and blood, but I can against the enemy by trusting in Your mighty arm, which shields me. As Your child, I am wrapping myself in Your strength. I am not sure why You are allowing this presence in my home, but it is stealing my strength and peace. In You, there is no evil or darkness, so I am taking shelter beneath Your wings and asking that You would cover me until the battle passes. Please command the demonic presence in my home to leave, and they will have no other choice but to obey Your mighty voice. Amen.
Prayer for His Powerful Shelter
Mighty Savior, my heart has always been grateful that nothing is more powerful than You. Your protection is one of Your dearest qualities because I know the devil is a prowling lion seeking to devour me. However, I know that nothing can come against me, as Your child, without Your permission. I have been through a lot with You, Lord, but this is the first time I have had a demonic presence in my home. I come urgently before You and ask for You to remove this presence. I take shelter in Your power and wait for You to move on my behalf. Please return my home to the peaceful haven from life’s daily troubles. Amen.
Prayer for Powerful Angels of Defense
Powerful God, thank you for Your angels, who are ministering spirits to do Your bidding on behalf of Your children. I pray that You would send an army of Your angels to encamp around my home and set up a holy wall of defense and gain the victory we need for our home ground. I pray that each member of my family would be strengthened in the Lord, both emotionally and spiritually. God, will You please send Your mightiest Angel to conquer and banish them to the Abyss. Praying that as Your angels stand guard over every entrance into our home, then Your peace will reign sovereign over our place of refuge. Amen.
Prayer for Trusting in His Loving Purpose
O Lord, Mighty in Power, I come to You weary from the demonic activity in my home. I pray that You would help me to trust You and submit to Your loving purpose for allowing this darkness so close to my family. If I struggle with the evil spirit’s presence, how much more my children? I beg You, Lord, please cover them with Your mighty hand and keep the evil from them. Teach them, Lord, that You are with us. Give us all eyes to see that we have more of Your angels with us than any amount of evil that could ever come against us. O powerful, loving, God, Defender of Your children, please remove this oppressive being from our home. Amen
Prayer for Trust to Walk Through the Flames
Faithful God, You are all-knowing and cover my life continually with protection. Because there is a demon moving about in my home, I know that he would want me to believe that You have removed Your hand of protection from me. Father, I know that I would be dead if this were true. I believe in You, and I pray that my trust will not waver throughout this trial. May I be granted the trust in You needed to walk into the furnace boldly, just like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. I trust that there is a reason for this attack, and my hands are open to receive the blessing You will pour out. Amen.
Prayer for the Nearness of God’s Kingdom
O God, my Strength, please deliver us from the evil that is in our home. Lord, when they accused You of casting out demons by the power of the devil, You replied with some beautiful words which offer hope to the oppressed. First, You said if I cast out, the “if” means that Your glorious power does cast out demons for Your children. Second, You said, “if” You do it, then surely the Kingdom of God has come upon you. This means the kingdom of God can come upon Your children when attacked by evil. Almighty, Lord Jesus, cast out the demon in our home with the finger of God and bring His kingdom near us and make our home Your dwelling place. Amen.
Prayer for the Enemy’s Departure
Almighty God, I know that all creatures are under your authority, including the demonic presence in my house. I will not fear evil because You are with me, and I know You will deliver me from this danger. Your word promises that if I resist him, then he will flee. I cannot resist him with my strength, so please grant me Yours. Lord, defeat the enemies before me and cause them to leave. Without You, I am an easy target for Your enemy, but You I am safe because You are the One, magnificent, and mighty God. This experience has only increased my thankfulness that I am Yours and You are mine. Amen.
