Many strongholds in your mind can interfere with your prayer
When you seek God or pray, your carnal mind will fight you. Many strongholds in your mind can interfere with your prayer, and you don’t receive the thing you pray for. Strongholds are set in place by demonic activity. Demons look for opportunities. The opportunities for these strongholds mainly fit into these categories: sin, listening to bad influences, listening to various forms of media, listening to lying teachers, New Age or occult techniques, or allowing doubt. They may include being wounded from relationships, traumatic events, identity issues, life transitions. If you allow unforgiveness, bitterness, unresolved fear, anger, grief, guilt, and feelings of disappointments to invade and stay, this could be an opportunity for demonic activity. Other factors might be unanswered prayer, feeling distant from god, family dysfunction, or false beliefs. Emotional patterns may have been passed down from parents or ancestors. Some people have suffered from unmet needs from childhood. Any of these can create a stronghold in your mind that God must eliminate. Sometimes, demons will even try to get in directly to plant ideas in your mind or whisper some nonsense. Demons can even suggest things when you’re praying. It’s a way to disrupt your faith and keep you from success in prayer. They must be rebuked and kicked out.
Strongholds may flash into your mind when you’re seeking God or praying. That’s the time to deal with them. Ask God what you should do since each one will be different. In general, what has to happen is that you reject the stronghold by the authority and power of Jesus Christ and get rid of it. Then, you fill that void with Jesus Christ so you make forward progress with God rather than what the devil had planned for you. God’s glory is within you if you are born again. You can direct His essence and glory to deal with any spiritual attack.

And let Your glory shine.
