Righteous Father,
Redeemer of Israel, Mighty Deliverer,
You are the God who brings prisoners out of darkness
and those who sit in chains into light (Isaiah 42:7).
You are the One who says, “Let My people go.”
I come before You on behalf of the children—
sons and daughters who belong to You,
yet whose souls are being pursued, pressured, distracted, and taken captive
by the enemy through subtle and overt means.
Acknowledging the Battle
Your Word says that the enemy comes only to steal, kill, and destroy,
but You came that they might have life and life abundantly (John 10:10).
You warned us that the god of this age blinds the minds of unbelievers
to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel (2 Corinthians 4:4).
But You also declared that light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness cannot overcome it (John 1:5).
So today, I stand on Your truth.
Calling for Release from Captivity
Lord, You ask:
“Can the prey be taken from the mighty,
or the captives of the righteous be delivered?”
And You answer:
“Yes… I will contend with those who contend with you,
and I will save your children” (Isaiah 49:24–25).
Therefore, in faith, I ask You to contend for the children.
Let every form of captivity be broken:
-
captivity of the mind
-
captivity of desire
-
captivity of identity
-
captivity through fear, pleasure, screens, substances, ideologies, and lies
Break every net, every snare, every hook the enemy has used.
For our soul has escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowler;
the snare is broken, and we have escaped (Psalm 124:7).
Breaking Deception and Mental Strongholds
Father, Your Word declares that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal,
but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,
casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself
against the knowledge of God,
and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ
(2 Corinthians 10:3–5).
I ask You now:
Pull down deceptive narratives.
Expose lies disguised as truth.
Collapse mental fortresses built on confusion, rebellion, and counterfeit freedom.
Let truth invade their inner world.
Awakening and Return
Lord, awaken the captives.
As You did with the prodigal,
let them come to themselves
and remember the Father’s house,
where there is bread enough and to spare (Luke 15:17).
Call them back—not by fear, but by truth;
not by force, but by revelation;
not by shame, but by love.
Your Word says, “You shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32).
So let truth find them—in conversations, in quiet moments, in dreams,
in questions that won’t go away,
in hunger that the world cannot satisfy.
Restoration and Guarding
Father, restore what has been stolen:
-
innocence
-
clarity
-
purpose
-
spiritual sensitivity
You promise to restore the years the locust has eaten (Joel 2:25).
Do this for the children.
Place angels to guard them in all their ways (Psalm 91:11).
Surround their minds with peace,
their hearts with truth,
and their paths with light.
Let them be delivered from the domain of darkness
and transferred into the kingdom of Your beloved Son
(Colossians 1:13).
Final Declaration
I declare that these children are not lost,
they are being pursued by the Shepherd.
They are not owned by the enemy,
they belong to the Lord.
They are not destined for captivity,
but for freedom, truth, and glory.
For whom the Son sets free is free indeed (John 8:36).
I seal this prayer in faith,
trusting not in my words,
but in Your power, Your promises, and Your mercy.
Amen.
