Prayer – Lord Set Me Free From Bondage, Other’s Expectations, Stress, Fear
The Bible warns us that we are involved in a battle against spiritual powers. This can lead to bondage, stress, and fear. As such, “we must submit ourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” So keep your eyes and focus on Jesus.
Ephesians 6:10–12 says, “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”
We stand strong in the Lord’s power. God’s armor protects us. Our reliance is on God’s power, not our own. We cloth ourselves with the whole armor of God.
We draw on the power of Scripture — the Word of God is the Spirit’s sword. And we pray in perseverance and holiness, making our appeal to God.
Stand firm (Ephesians 6:13–14). Submit to God. Resist the devil’s work (James 4:7). The Lord of hosts is your protector. “Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken” (Psalm 62:2).

I ask for the courage to prioritize Your will above all else, to seek Your approval rather than human validation. Free me from the fear of man, that I might serve You with an undivided heart.
Give me discernment to recognize when the expectations of others align with Your will and when they do not. Help me to find balance and to set healthy boundaries, ensuring that my primary aim is to fulfill Your purpose for my life.
