Life is a battlefield, and as believers, we must recognize that the enemy is relentless in his attempts to derail our destinies. The good news is that God has equipped us with everything we need to cancel every evil plan the enemy devises against us.
As it says in Isaiah 54:17, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me,” says the Lord.
This powerful scripture reminds us that while weapons may form, they will not succeed. Let’s explore how we can stand in the authority God has given us to cancel every evil assignment against our lives.
Recognize the Enemy’s Tactics
The first step in cancelling the enemy’s plans is recognizing his schemes. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 2:11 that we should not be ignorant of Satan’s devices. The enemy works through lies, fear, confusion, distractions, and even people to carry out his plans. Discernment is key. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any hidden plots or subtle attacks in your life.
Stand in the Authority of Jesus
As believers, we have authority over all the power of the enemy through the name of Jesus. Luke 10:19 declares, “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” When you pray, declare the authority of Jesus over your life, your family, your health, and your destiny. Speak to the enemy’s plans and command them to be dismantled in Jesus’ name.
Wage War with the Word
The Word of God is a powerful weapon in spiritual warfare. When Jesus was tempted in the wilderness, He cancelled the enemy’s plans by declaring, “It is written.” Begin to use scripture in your prayers to nullify the enemy’s attacks. Here are a few powerful declarations you can make:
- Psalm 91:3: “Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence.”
- Jeremiah 1:10: “See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and to pull down, to destroy and to throw down, to build and to plant.”
- 2 Timothy 4:18: “And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom.”
Cancel Every Word Curse and Evil Decree
The enemy often uses words to execute his plans. This can include word curses, false accusations, and evil decrees spoken against you. Break these curses in prayer by declaring:
“Every word spoken against my life, my family, my health, and my destiny is nullified now in the name of Jesus. I declare that no curse shall alight upon me because I am covered by the blood of Jesus (Proverbs 26:2).”
Engage in Fervent Prayer
Prayer is a divine weapon to cancel demonic plans. James 5:16 says, “The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” Begin to intercede and pray aggressively against every evil plan, using the authority of the blood of Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit. Here’s an example prayer:
“Father, in the name of Jesus, I thank You that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. I come against every evil plan, every demonic agenda, and every satanic attack assigned to derail my destiny. I plead the blood of Jesus over my life and declare divine protection and deliverance. Every plot of the enemy is exposed and destroyed now, in Jesus’ name!”
Stay Aligned with God’s Will
Obedience to God’s Word and walking in His will is critical. When we remain aligned with Him, the enemy’s plans are thwarted. Psalm 91:1 says, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” Stay in the secret place through prayer, worship, and meditating on the Word.
Rejoice in Victory
Finally, remember that the victory is already yours. Colossians 2:15 tells us that Jesus disarmed principalities and powers, making a public spectacle of them and triumphing over them. As you cancel the enemy’s plans in prayer, rejoice in the knowledge that you are more than a conqueror through Christ (Romans 8:37).
The enemy’s plans may form, but they cannot succeed against a child of God who stands firm in faith, prayer, and the authority of Jesus. Rise up, take your position in the spirit, and cancel every evil assignment against your life today. Remember, Psalm 121:7-8 promises, “The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore.”
Now is the time to declare victory. No evil plan will succeed because God is your defender, your protector, and your deliverer.
