23-03-2026 Dealing with the Prince of Persia
Today’s prayer is to uncover and bring into the light of God the workings and nature of the prince of Persia, of whom we learn in Daniel 10:13, 20, that he is a powerful principality who withstood the archangel Gabriel for 21 days until the archangel Michael came to free Gabriel. However, we learn from the account, that Michael did not fight with the prince of Persia but only held him fast until Gabriel returned to fight with this demon. After he had overcome him, apparently the prince of Greece was to follow after him who stood with Alexander the Great.
We learn from this and other Scriptures that there are angelic or demonic powers who stand with a nation. The Archangel Michael is Israel’s guardian angel (Dan. 12:1) and is also in charge of God’s armies, under the authority of Yeshua. Despite all the bombing by Israel and America, the Iranian regime is still intact, with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp launching all those missiles across Israel and the Middle East. It seems that the prince of Persia has not been rendered powerless as my prophetic minstrel friend claims, saying that their team already dealt with this principality long ago and that he is overcome. Also, intercessors in America have been dealing for months with him and claim he is finished.
Well, apparently not!
Before we come against this principality bear in mind that we don’t deal with a little spirit here but with a power who was able to hold up Gabriel for 21 days. However, Gabriel is only an angel though a very mighty one, whereas Yeshua is the Son of God, Lord of lords and King of kings to whom EVERY KNEE MUST BOW! He has overcome and defeated Satan’s Kingdom, and delegated His victorious authority to His disciples. In other words, such spiritutal warfare is not for everybody. It requires strong faith, knowing who we are in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus Christ) and our authority in Him, and fearlessness as commanded by Yeshua.
No one who is burdened with bitterness, resentments, grudges, unforgiveness, anger, jealousy and envy; who partakes of immoral involvement, lies, gossips and slanders or adheres to an erroneous doctrine may participate in this warfare. Before entering into this prayer let us therefore first search our heart just as we do before we partake of the Lord’s Supper, since we all at one time or other have stumbled and fallen short of the glory of God. But if we confess our sins earnestly, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 Jn 1:9) because He knows and loves us, and is mindful that our frame is made from dust (Ps 103:14), a mortal body of sinful flesh in which dwells no good thing (Romans 7:18).
Purified and cleansed by the blood of the Lamb with its power of atonement, we shall now begin a warfare similar to a trial in a court – in this case in the heavenly Courtroom, with our Lord Yeshua present as our Defense attorney.
The prayer we will bring before the Almighty Who abhors idolatry, apostasy, worship of demons, allegiance to Satan, will prepare the way for us as we come against this principality still empowering the Iranian regime.
“Hence we decree and declare in the Name of Messiah Yeshua [Jesus Christ], let the Islamic occult shields of protection be taken away from everyone involved in the evil regime of the Ayatollah Khomeini and the Mullahs, especially from the higher degrees in Iran, Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, from the lies and deceptions, their misleading information, theft, fraud, and corruption. Let their Islamic occult shields of protection no longer be able to hide them from being exposed by and brought into the light of Yeshua the Messiah, Savior, Son of God and Son of Man, King of kings and Lord of lords.”
“Let witchcraft manipulation, exercised and practiced especially by the leading mullahs of high degrees be brought to an end in and over the governments and people of Iran, Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen and Turkey. Let the witchcraft manipulation by the mullahs in those countries be brought to nothing, demolished and scattered into non-existence.”
“Now, let me encourage you: ‘Be not afraid of the prince of Persia because he is bread to us …his protection will be gone by the power of the blood of Yeshua, by the power of His cross, by the authority of His Name and His victory over him…and we shall triumph over him and the Iranian regime for the Lord is with us but against him…Do not be afraid of him.’”
“Father in heaven, Almighty King of the universe, God of all the earth, and Holy One of Israel, all praise, glory, honor, power, worship, obedience and thanksgiving be Yours, for You are worthy to be greatly glorified, extolled, exalted and revered. We humbly approach You now, just and righteous Judge, in the Name of Your Son, our Lord, Savior and King, Messiah Yeshua, in Your heavenly courtroom, to take a stand against the prince of Persia who took possession of the Ayatollah Khomeiny, and through him of the nation and people of Iran, and created a fanatic Islam, with violence, fear and bloodshed. He has used this nation to strengthen the enemies of Israel, to destroy Your nation.”
“He is the evil one who was behind the Iranian regime to finance, train and help Hamas to commit the Shoah [[mass murder of Jewish people under the German Nazi regime during the period 1941–5; the Holocaust]. against defenseless civilians of Your people on Oct. 7Th, 2023. We humbly ask now, O righteous Judge and our holy Father in heaven: please, have Yeshua HaMashiach, the great Intercessor and High Priest before You, stand with us and have His victory over all of the kingdom of the adversary strengthen and uphold us. Therefore, in Your most holy Presence, and in the Presence of our Savior and King, Yeshua HaMashiach Your Son, the King of heaven Who stands for justice, righteousness, truth, light and life, we now pray, decree and declare:
“IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER [make the sign of the cross †], IN THE NAME OF THE SON [make the sign of the cross †], IN THE NAME OF THE HOLY SPIRIT [make the sign of the cross †], You prince of Persia, prince of darkness, bow your knee to the name of the King of heaven and earth, the Lord of the heavenly hosts with Whom is the light, the truth, the Victory, the power and might, Yeshua HaMashiach. In His Name, and by power of His blood and cross, be bound henceforth with the chains of nether darkness, and let the keys of the Kingdom of heaven keep you bound and captive in the realm of nether darkness until judgment day. The keys of the Kingdom of heaven shall keep you captive, for you are bound both in heaven, on earth and under the earth.”
“Lord Yeshua, our King, we thank You for standing with us against this prince of darkness, who is rendered powerless in the authority of Your Name and by the power of Your blood and cross, a power so great it has overcome all the power of the kingdom of darkness.”
“We thank and praise You, Father in heaven, for Your Son, for the power of His Name, blood and cross being above all powers, principalities and dominions named in heaven, on earth, under the earth and in the Seas. Be glorified in Your Son, and may it please You to also glorify Yourself in us, Your humble children and warriors for Your Kingdom, for light, life and truth, against all evil and power of darkness.”
“Lord God Almighty, Heavenly Father, we thank you for the power of the blood of Yeshua / Jesus, over all witchcraft and occult, over all false religions, gods sand demons. We come before You now, sprinkled with and protected by the blood of Yeshua, and proclaim over the systems of evil in Iran such as the Ayatollah and the Islamic Revolutnioary Guard Corps:
“Let there be a separation between you, a disagreement in confusion, in great anger and fury, and let the IRGC turn against the Ayatollah and his regime, and with the people of Iran take him and his men to court to be judged and condemned to death. Then let there be a new regime, in freedom and justice and without mullahs. Then let the IRGC be brought to justice and condemned to death for all the evil and death they have brought upon the people of Israel, Iran and the people of the Middle East.”
“We praise and worship You, O Lord our God, and our heart sings unto You with joy, love and gladness. Let our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving be acceptable unto You, even though we don’t have musicians right now and songs to make melody to You and bless Your holy Presence. We love You, almighty Father in heaven, and will thank You forever for Your Son Who has made it possible to live with You forever in Your Kingdom of beauty and glory, goodness, kindness and justice, righteousness, mercy and grace. In Your Presence is fulness of joy, and at Your right hand pleasures forevermore. We long for Your Kingdom and thank You for the great hope of eternal life with You.”
“Father, we are Yours forever and ever, Your children and Your servants. Let all the world see Your glory over Israel and Your majesty over all the earth, and for Yeshua being the King of Israel, the Lion of Judah Who fights for His people. In His Name we give You thanks and praise. Amen and Amen.”
