Prayer for freedom from fear - For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind - 2 Timothy 1:7

Prayer from freedom of fear​

Abba Father, I come to you today, and I want to repent that I have let fear into my heart. Father, I repent that I have had fear, fear of the future, fear of man, generational fear, fear of sickness, fear of (add any fears that the Holy Spirit is revealing to you). Lord I repent, that I might not have trusted You in my finances, with my future, or anything else that has led to an open door for fear to creep in.

Lord, I ask that if there is anywhere where I might have opened a door for fear of creeping in, please shut this door and seal it with the blood of Yeshua. Where this fear comes through my bloodline, where it has been passed on from generation to generation, I declare no more, it ends with me! Lord, I ask that you break every stronghold that the enemy had over me because of the sins of my ancestors. I ask that you break off this fear from me and all my future generations and that you cleanse our bloodline from this fear through the blood of Jesus.

Abba Father in your word you say “For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of love” (2 Timothy 1:7), I want to lay this fear that has been gripping my heart at your altar today. Lord, I ask that you cast out all fear from my heart, mind, and soul. Help me to trust in you, trust in your perfect love, and to trust that you have a plan for my life (Jeremiah 29:11). Lord, where I might have fear of safety, please help me to trust that you are my protector. You are Jehovah Nissi, the Lord my banner, the banner of victory – you have already overcome. Lord help me to walk in your boldness.

Jehovah Jireh, you are my provider, Lord, where I might have had fear over my finances, I ask that you replace that fear with trust in you, trust that you are my provider, that you have created the earth and all that is on it, that if you are looking after the birds, how much more will you look after and provide for me (Matthew 6:25-26).

Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
- Matthew 6:25 - 26

Holy Spirit, I ask that You bring Your consuming fire, burn away all evidence of fear in heaven and on earth, please bring the blood of Yeshua and wash away by root and by seed, all traces of fear, so that it cannot stand against us in the Courtroom of Heaven.

I surrender all my fears to you and ask that you replace my fears with faith, hope, and love. Abba Father, you said that your words will not return void (Isaiah 55:11), and I claim that today, I claim that you have given me a spirit of love and not a spirit of fear.

Lord, I thank you for the sacrifice that you made on the cross that allows me to live a life free from the bondage of sin. I thank you that you died on the cross, for my Salvation, Provision, and Protection (1 Peter 2:24). Lord, thank you that you already have the victory and that I have this victory through you!

Jehovah Shalom, you are my peace, Lord please give me peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Lord I cover myself, my loved ones, my assets, and my finances under the blood of Jesus, I break off any backlash from the enemy. In the mighty name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.

Verses to pray and speak over yourself when it feels like fear is creeping in

The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked came against me To eat up my flesh, My enemies and foes, They stumbled and fell. Though an army may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me, In this I will be confident.
- Psalm 27: 1 - 3

Psalm 91

He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High

Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”

Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.

Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
10 No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
11 For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
12 In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13 You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

14 “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
15 He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;
will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation.”

Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
- Isaiah 41:10
