Whether you realize it or not, there is a spiritual war going on all around us and a fierce battle is being fought for souls. As Christians, we need to be engaged in prayer, armed with Scriptures, and boldly proclaiming where our only hope can be found – in Jesus Christ alone.
It’s a time for believers to come together as prayer warriors and fight this battle as the Lord has equipped us to fight.

15 Spiritual Warfare Scriptures:
Praying God’s Word is a powerful way to come to the Lord in prayer.
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. Ephesians 6:10-12
We are human, but we don’t wage war as humans do. We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. 2 Corinthians 10:3-4
Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. 1 Peter 5:8-9
So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come close to God, and God will come close to you. James 4:7-8
I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth, you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world. John 16:33
The Lord will conquer your enemies when they attack you. They will attack you from one direction, but they will scatter from you in seven! Deuteronomy 28:7
Look, I have given you authority over all the power of the enemy. Luke 10:19
But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3
The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life. John 10:10
So we keep on praying for you, asking our God to enable you to live a life worthy of his call. May he give you the power to accomplish all the good things your faith prompts you to do. 1 Thessalonians 1:11

How to pray warfare prayers?
Simply come to the Authority of all things and humbly bow before Him in prayer.
He is our High Priest and we know we can now approach Him because Hebrews 4:16 tells us, “Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”
There is nothing on earth that has more power than the name of Jesus. When you pray warfare prayers, you are calling on the name of Jesus and are bowing low to the King of kings! The One who conquered death!
Nothing compares. Warfare scriptures and prayers are such a powerhouse combo. Nothing can stand against Jesus and I hope by God’s grace these scriptures have brought you encouragement today.
