In this YouTube prayer, speaker Jeremiah Tipton leads a concise, fervent prayer aimed at believers struggling with intrusive, unwanted thoughts. The monologue identifies various forms of intrusive thinking—lustful, blasphemous, hateful, and self‑critical—and declares them as attacks from the enemy. The speaker repeatedly rebukes these thoughts in the name of Jesus, affirms that God has granted believers self‑control and the power to choose their thoughts, and asks for deliverance and freedom from mental bombardment. The tone is earnest and authoritative, invoking spiritual warfare language to encourage listeners to claim divine authority over their mental life.

Chapters

I come against intrusive thoughts. Intrusive thoughts, I rebuke it in the name of the Lord. Those intrusive thoughts to where you feel like you can't control what's being said. You feel like one thing after another just fires off in your mind and you're unable to get ahold of that thinking. Sometimes it's lustful thoughts. Sometimes it's a blasphemous thought. Sometimes it's a hateful thought. Sometimes it's this self-criticism, but there is this nagging, persistent attack on the mind. Intrusive thoughts, like you're being bombarded with various different fireballs and you feel completely out of control, like you're unable to do anything about it, in the name of Jesus, be set free today. Lord, I thank you that you've given to your people self-control. I thank you that you've given us the power to choose our thoughts. I rebuke the lie of the enemy that would cause them to doubt that they in fact have control over their thoughts. I rebuke the lie of the enemy that would exaggerate the powers of darkness and cause the people of God to believe that the enemy has this over them. Over them. I rebuke those intrusive thoughts in the name of Jesus.
