7 Strong Bible Verses To Fight Against Demonic Attacks

If you’re reading this right now, chances are you’re going through demonic attacks or something that feels bigger than ordinary problems. Maybe you’ve been having terrible nightmares, unexplained sickness, sudden financial losses, or just that heavy feeling that something dark is working against you. Let me tell you something… you’re not going crazy, and you’re not imagining things. Demonic attacks are real, but thank God, we have weapons that are stronger than any force of darkness.

I used to think all these “demonic attack” talks were just church drama until I experienced it firsthand. There was a period in my life when everything that could go wrong went wrong, all at the same time. It wasn’t ordinary bad luck… it felt orchestrated, like someone or something was deliberately fighting my progress. That’s when I learned the power of fighting back with God’s word.

1. Luke 10:19 – Your Authority Over Every Demon
“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

This verse is like your spiritual ID card that shows demons who you are in Christ. When you declare this scripture, you’re reminding every dark force that Jesus has given YOU authority over them. Don’t just read it… declare it with confidence. I have power over every serpent, every scorpion, every demon assigned against my life!”

2. Isaiah 54:17 – No Weapon Can Prosper
“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.”

This scripture is perfect for when you know people are plotting against you or when you feel under spiritual attack. Whether it’s witchcraft, curses, or evil plans, this verse declares that NONE of them will succeed against your life. I pray this every morning as a shield over my day.

3. Ephesians 6:12 – Knowing Your Real Enemy
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

Sometimes the problem isn’t the person troubling you… it’s the demon using that person. This verse helps you identify your real enemy so you can fight the right battle. Instead of fighting people, you fight the spirits controlling them.

4. James 4:7 – The Devil Must Flee
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”

This is probably one of the most powerful verses for spiritual warfare. The word “flee” means to run away in terror. When you resist the devil in Jesus’ name, he doesn’t just walk away… he runs! But notice it says submit to God first. You need to be in right standing with God for this to work effectively.

5. 1 John 4:4 – Greater is He That is in You
“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”

When you feel overwhelmed by demonic attacks, remember this verse. The Holy Spirit living inside you is greater than any demon, any witchcraft, any curse working against you. You’re not fighting from a place of weakness… you’re fighting from a place of victory because God in you is stronger than anything out there.

6. Psalm 91:1-2 – Your Spiritual Fortress
“He that dwelleth 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 will I trust.”

This psalm is like building a spiritual wall around yourself. When you declare that you dwell in God’s secret place, you’re positioning yourself in a realm where demons cannot touch you. Make this your daily declaration of protection.

7. 2 Corinthians 10:4 – Weapons That Destroy Strongholds
“For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds.”

This verse reminds you that you’re not fighting with ordinary weapons. Prayer, fasting, worship, and God’s word are not just religious activities… they are mighty weapons that can destroy any stronghold the enemy has built in your life.

How to Use These Verses Effectively to fight Demonic Attacks

Don’t just read these scriptures like bedtime stories. Declare them with authority, pray them with passion, and confess them with faith. When you’re under attack, speak these verses out loud. Demons hate to hear God’s word, and they have no choice but to obey it.

Also, memorize at least 3 of these verses so you can use them anytime, anywhere. Sometimes attacks come when you don’t have your Bible with you, but if these scriptures are in your heart, they become instant weapons.

Remember, you’re not a victim… you’re a victor. Every demon assigned against your life must bow to the name of Jesus and the power of His word.
