40 Powerful Psalm 35 Prayer Against Enemies

If you notice certain signs around you, realize you may be faced with with imminent spiritual forces trying to resist your progress.

When certain relationships suddenly turn sour without any clear reason, deals fall through, and people you trusted begin to work against you, then something sinister is around the corner. When opposition feels too coordinated to be coincidence, then it probably is. In other words, you may be surrounded by enemies.

There is a prayer in Scripture that believers have learned to turn to  in such seasons. It is Psalm 35.

Psalm 35 is David’s cry to God when enemies surrounded him, with no human help in view. This is not a gentle prayer. It is a plea for the Lord to arise, plead his cause, and fight those who fought against him.

These 40 powerful Psalm 35 prayers against enemies are for anyone who needs God to defend them, expose hidden plots, and bring justice. As you pray, you place the battle in the hands of the One who never loses.

“Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me.” Psalm 35:1

Before we pray, let us look at what Scripture teaches about this psalm and how to pray it with a right heart.

Why David Prayed Psalm 35

Not all battles are physical, and not all enemies are visible. Some opposition comes from people who speak against you or plan to harm you. Some of it may involve spiritual forces working to delay and frustrate your destiny. David did not take revenge into his own hands. He brought his case to God and asked for justice.

Notice also the heart of the man who prayed this psalm. In Psalm 35:13, David says that when his enemies were sick, he put on sackcloth, humbled his soul with fasting, and prayed for them. He asked God to fight his battles, but he did not hate those who opposed him. This is a good example for us.
