This world is surrounded by unfortunate situations and events, some caused by our enemies out of jealousy or invasion by the devil. Simultaneously, it’s nearly impossible not to have enemies because the devil is always searching for souls to devour.
Sometimes, you might wish to fight the enemy or exchange bitter words with them physically, but that’s not Biblically nor humanly right.
If you don’t remain firm in prayers, you can easily get swept away by the power of your enemies as they strive to tamper with your faith in God.
Below are seven powerful prayers for enemies to leave you alone.
Before you even start, save these prayers to cancel the evil plan of the enemy.
1) Short Prayer for Enemies to Leave Me Alone
“Dear Father,
Thank You for always protecting me against enemies and granting me the wisdom to continue praying for them and not against them.
However, I pray that You may make them leave me alone so I can concentrate better on other matters.
Simultaneously, shower Your Holy Spirit upon them to direct them into Your word so they may realize their actions are wrong.
Thank You, my Lord.

There’s an unshaken truth that not everybody will love you and like everything that you do.
In different phases of life, you must encounter two or three hostile people (enemies) towards you, your achievements, or your plans, making it challenging to exist comfortably.
Some might even hate you for no reason, regardless of how much you try to prove your goodness to them.
Everyone must be prepared for situations like these when hatred and enmity will flourish from those around you.
Instead of fighting back or striving to achieve more than them, you can say the above prayer with faith that God will eliminate them from your life.
The best attack on an enemy is prayer and the word of God. Even Jesus in the wilderness confidently fought back the enemy (devil) as he was striving to lure Him into temptations with the Holy Word of God (Matthew 4:1-11).

Have you ever felt really disturbed by someone? Then it’s time you went down on your knees in prayers.
Those are symbols of the presence of an enemy in your life and can easily lead to greater misfortunes if not addressed early enough.
The above prayer effectively makes someone leave you alone and instantly stop bothering you. You can also be assured immeasurable peace of mind and heart through it, especially if you say it with trust.
Read 1 Corinthians 4:12-13 to reinforce your prayers:
“We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it; when we are slandered, we answer kindly. We have become the scum of the earth, the garbage of the world—right up to this moment“

Many things could be running through your mind when you’re constantly thinking about your enemies; it’s even worse when they won’t leave you alone and are always envious of your moves.
You’re not alone because everyone has enemies. However, you should be tolerant of the situation because if not addressed, it can negatively influence your well-being and productivity at work or home.
Battles concerning enemies do not require physical weapons, as the Bible tells us that during such moments we should call God for help because He is the Mighty Warrior.
Whatever the issue is between you and the enemies, you can always trust in the above prayer to work the magic on your behalf while keeping the enemy away.
Also save these powerful prayers for those who despitefully use you.

I come before Your presence this hour, praying for Your ample protection against my enemies at work. Since I must work to finance different needs, please shield me from all sorts of arguments that may be directed at me at my workplace.
Please help me be slow to anger and quick to listen so there will be no battleground for the enemy. Fill my mind with Your Holy Spirit to separate the genuine ones from the rest.
May Your name be glorified.

While the Scripture in Matthew 5:44 calls us to “love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you“.
So, we should bless those who curse us, do good to them, and pray for those who despitefully use us.
You might fail your assessment or not finish your workload as you constantly think about your work enemies. But, one of the most effective ways to deal with such people is to try to at least reason from their point of view before ignoring them or terming them as enemies.
Maybe they are battling a private issue and, unfortunately, taking it out at work and on anyone around them, including you.
If they continue being hostile to you even after sympathizing with them, you can say the above prayer to protect yourself from more harm.
Additionally, praying for enemies at work gives you patience, understanding, and the power of discernment in different situations.
5) Protection Prayer Against My Enemies
“Compassionate Father, Hallowed be Thy name,
I bow before You now, praying for Your protection from my enemies and all their ungodly plans concerning my life.
Please enable me to discern every evil plan concealed in generosity or other ways and not let their devious plans prosper.
Lord, please hear and answer my prayer.

Amen.”
We live in a world where you can hardly recognize every evil plan directed at your career, family, property, or life generally. Some warfare goes on without our notice, some of which we couldn’t stand to watch even if we had the power.
However, nothing should scare you about that because God promises to protect us from our enemies because no weapon fashioned against His children shall prosper.
“No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me” — Isaiah 54:17.
Make the above prayer of protection your companion with the faith that none of your enemies’ plans towards you will proceed.
I believe you should also try these miracle prayers for someone who is angry with you.
6) Prayer for Enemies to Leave Someone Alone

Please change the hearts of their enemies so that they may focus on Your goodness instead of other people’s businesses.
I ask this through Christ Jesus.

Grant me the strength to continue fighting and not resent in the name of Jesus. Thank You, Father.

It’s without a doubt that believers require divine intervention and protection against the enemy at one point in their lives.
Sometimes, our plans could be going on perfectly to the extent that we feel we control everything until things fall apart.
When disaster strikes, that’s when many seek God’s intervention when they should have prayed for His protection from the beginning. While you may think no one has evil plans for your life, no believer goes without an enemy, no matter how righteous they live.
Therefore, we should always pray to protect ourselves against enemy attacks at all times. If you’re already battling an attack, it’s not too late to say the above prayer for deliverance and further protection.
