📜 Scroll of Deliverance Prayer from Ezra
"For who is God, but the LORD? And who is a rock, except our God?—the God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect." (Psalm 18:31-32, echoing the spirit of Ezra’s faith)
🌌 I. Praise and Exaltation of Yahweh, the Almighty God of Restoration
O LORD God of Israel,
You alone are the Most High, sovereign over heaven and earth.
You who dismantle the schemes of kings and princes,
You who direct the rise and fall of nations according to Your perfect will,
We lift You high in praise and adoration.
You are El Shaddai—The All-Sufficient One,
Jehovah Tsidkenu—The Lord Our Righteousness,
Jehovah Nissi—Our Banner and Victory,
And Jehovah Shammah—The Ever-Present God.
No power of darkness can withstand Your Name,
No decree of men can overturn Your divine plan.
🛡️ II. Decrees Against the Principalities, Powers, and Dark Forces Opposing God’s Work
We come in the authority of Jesus Christ,
The Name above every name,
And we bind and rebuke all the spirits behind the opposition in Ezra’s days and ours:
-
We bind the spirit of Sanballat and Tobiah—agents of obstruction and mockery,
Who seek to halt the rebuilding of God’s house and hinder the work of restoration.
We declare: By the Spirit of the Lord Almighty, their plans are frustrated and fall to dust! -
We renounce the spirit of Delilah-like deception that aims to corrupt, distract, and weaken the faith of God’s people.
-
We break every yoke of the “gods” and “princes” of Persia and Media,
The ancient spiritual powers behind the earthly kingdoms that sought to stop the covenant people. -
We dismantle the strongholds of fear, discouragement, and unbelief,
That tried to paralyze the builders and priests called to restore worship and holiness. -
We declare freedom from every curse, intimidation, and manipulation linked to ancestral idolatry and foreign gods that infiltrated the land and hearts.
🔥 III. Petition for Divine Protection, Healing, and Sanctification
Father,
Cover Your people with the armor of God—
The belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness,
The shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit.
Deliver us from the snares of the enemy,
From every whispered lie and open assault.
Heal the wounds of spiritual attack,
Cleanse our hearts from compromise,
Sanctify us by Your Word and Your Spirit,
That we may stand firm in holiness and obedience.
Restore joy and strength to the weary,
Ignite the fire of zeal for Your house and Your Name.
🌿 IV. Declaration of God’s Kingdom and the Triumph of His Purposes
We declare:
The God of heaven reigns forever,
His kingdom shall not be moved.
No weapon formed against Your covenant people shall prosper,
Every tongue that rises against us in judgment shall be condemned.
The foundations laid by Your servants shall stand,
Your temple shall be a house of prayer for all nations,
And Your Name shall be glorified in all the earth.
We rejoice in Your justice, Your mercy, and Your faithfulness,
Knowing that You are our Defender, our Redeemer, and our Deliverer.
🙏 V. Closing Prayer for Empowerment and Endurance
O Lord God of Hosts,
Fill us afresh with Your Spirit,
Strengthen our hands to finish the work You have begun,
Grant us wisdom to navigate every challenge,
And courage to overcome every attack.
May Your glory be revealed in our midst,
And may we walk forward in victory, peace, and holy boldness,
For Your Name’s sake,
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord and King.
Amen, Amen, and Amen.
