23 Prayer For Salvation And Deliverance
1. Romans 10:9–10
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
This verse is the foundation of salvation—it’s not earned through deeds but received through faith. Confessing Jesus as Lord brings freedom from sin’s grip and ushers in eternal life. Salvation begins with a heart that believes and a mouth that declares His name.
Lord, I confess that You are my Savior and King. I believe You rose from the dead to give me life. Wash away my sins and make me new in Your righteousness.
2. Psalm 34:17
“The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.”

Lord, hear my cry and deliver me from every affliction. Free me from the chains that hold me back and restore peace to my heart. Let Your power be made perfect in my weakness.
3. John 8:36
“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
True freedom can only come through Jesus. While the world offers temporary relief, Christ offers eternal liberation from sin, guilt, and spiritual bondage. His freedom is absolute—it reaches deep into the soul.
Lord, thank You for the freedom that comes through Christ alone. Break every chain that binds me and fill my life with Your truth. Let me walk daily in the liberty of Your Spirit.
4. Colossians 1:13–14
“Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.”

Lord, thank You for delivering me from darkness. Keep me walking in the light of Your truth. Let my life reflect the beauty and freedom of Your Kingdom.
5. 2 Corinthians 5:17
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
In Christ, the past no longer defines us. Salvation wipes away guilt, shame, and regret. We become brand new, empowered to live with purpose and grace under God’s guidance.
Lord, make me new again through Your Spirit. Erase the marks of my old life and fill me with hope. Help me to live as a new creation, walking boldly in Your love and freedom.

Lord, thank You for the grace that saves and sustains me. Let me never take for granted the mercy You’ve shown. Keep me humble, grateful, and surrendered to Your will.
8. Psalm 18:2
“The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust.”
God is the ultimate source of safety and strength. When storms of temptation, fear, or sin rage, He becomes the fortress that cannot be shaken. Deliverance is found in trusting His power to defend.

Lord, thank You for freeing me from condemnation. Let Your Spirit of life guide every thought and decision. Help me to live boldly in the freedom You have secured for me.
19. Psalm 32:7
“Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.”
God surrounds His people with deliverance like a shield. His presence becomes a refuge, and His joy becomes strength. Even in struggle, His protection remains steadfast.
Lord, be my hiding place and refuge. Surround me with songs of victory and deliverance. Let Your presence drive out every fear and fill me with lasting peace.
