Prayer For Complete Freedom

[al1998]

Hello,
There is something very strange that I have been noticing. I have been on the receiving end of a lot of spiritual attacks for the past few months. A lot of this was largely my fault due to the fact that I had experimented with witchcraft and the occult in the past. I opened up a lot of very dangerous doors during this time. I have since given my life back to Jesus and I have been delivered from most or all of the attacks that I was experiencing. However, there is one thing that remains constant. I have been sensing that there is still something not completely right with my heart spiritually. Some days, I will feel fine and I will sense that my relationship with God is growing. On the bad days, I start to sense that there is some sort of numb feelng creeping over my heart. It is as if I cannot actually perceive that my faith is real. It is as if there is something spiritually hindering me from fully accepting the gospel of Jesus Christ within my heart. When this happens, I start to experience these very intense and explicit spiritual attacks that are usually manifested in the people around me. Everything will be fine and then I start to perceive that that hindrance is overtaking my heart and then it's as if a switch goes off - everything around me goes haywire. I notice that when I feel fine and my heart is open to the gospel, I don't experience this. But once that sensation comes, it's as if I'm a completely different person. I do not have a regular church home, although I am seeking one out. I do not have a lot of background knowledge about conducting spiritual warfare. My only hope is to ask other Christian people to pray for me and to seek God on my own. Please pray that there will be an end to this battle. I've been fighting it for only a few months but it has gone on so long and so intensely that I don't remember how to live normally anymore. The things that I have experienced have caused me to become extremely paranoid and fearful because I never know when another attack might come up. Please pray for me.

Hey, it seems like, their are more idols that have not been confessed and Repented of. Make sure positivity no hint of Sexual sins, hovering around. Which is also idolatry. and Try to Fast, drink water. Fasting, stay clear of friends, spend more time in his word if possible. By staying clear of people is also a sense of fasting. People harbor unclean spirits somethings, who does not mind hitching a ride.

If you follow these practices, you will know if they are working. Own and confess all your sins to your "High Priest" who sits on the Righty hand of The Father. That is another reason why HE is there.

You stay away from people, because they have so many solutions and remedy's. in the name of "Jesus" but cannot agree upon nothing. for you already have a "High Priest", Intercessor, Paraclete. But they think you need more. you have all you need.

“Now when the unclean spirit comes out of a person, it passes through waterless places seekingrest, and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came’; and when it comes, it finds it unoccupied, swept, and put in order. Then it goes and brings along with it sevenother spirits more wicked than itself, and they come in and live there; and the last condition of that person becomes worse than the first. That is the way it will also be with this evil generation.”

stay away from those women, If it be the case. I don't care how much scripture they can quote.

Read your Bible beginning from the front clear to revelation. This is a wash! and clean behind your ears! Don't cheat! Meaning don't skip no words you don't understand! and don't take a month to do it!

Hi Al,

Quick clarification sought here. The occult you dabbled in; was that before or after you made the conscious decision to follow Jesus and become a Christian? If it was after, that's what Jesus calls serving two masters: it's not viable. You need to make a final once and for all decision, and if you make the right choice then stick with it, work at it, make that commitment deeper and permanent. You'll find it hard, maybe too hard in which case you'll need to ask God for more of His Holy Spirit and work Him to increase your experience of God and closer walk with Him. Under no circumstances, even think about occult, just move on, closer to God.

If the occult relates to before, it's just a part of your history, part of the many sins (correction - all the sins!) flushed down the WC known as forgiveness and cleansing. Evil spirits will have been chased out, but what's been left behind? Jesus tells us that there's so much more to following Him than just being nice. We cut back on sin, try to be very good and well behaved leaving a void that was previously taken up by the sin. That void needs filling, and once again, that can only be done by the Holy Spirit. Just leaving the void, risks being bored, looking back and eventually slipping back into the old ways. Read the parable of the swept house Luke 11:23-26. quoted by Plough Boy above.

So how do you increase your experience of God and feel His Holy Spirit working within you? Prayer. Not just: 'Dear God, can I please have ...' or 'will you please do ...'. No talk to God like He's an absolutely perfect dad and your best friend - because that's what He is. Shower Him with constant praise, love and adoration. Dear God, I love you because - Dear God, the thing I love about you is - Dear God, thank you for -. Constant chat, tell Him about your day, your likes and dislikes, things happening in your life. God loves you dearly, you are so precious, He wants to be an integral part of your life, your whole psyche, your whole imperative for getting up in the morning.

Work also on finding a good church in which you can give back to God and receive even more, and keep reading your Bible - it's God's autobiography, the best way to really get to know Him.

=================================================================

Dear Lord God,

I want to pray for my precious brother Al. Our enemy Satan seems to be trying to deceive Him that he's more powerful than he actually is: it's mostly roaring and bluster. I know you describe him as a roaring lion in 1 Peter 5:8 but like all big cats he can only pick off the weak and is afraid of the strong. Please God, draw near to Al, reveal more of yourself to him, fill him with your Spirit and do wonderful things with him, making him a strong disciple with a wonderful testimony of the incredible transformational changes that you've brought about in his life.

We love you God that you love us, each of us with an unending, unconditional love and total protection that we can take immense comfort from.

Love you God.

Prayer for the peace of Christ in your situation Al.

Hi Al,

When you came to Christ in repentance and faith, he has forgiven you and by the power of the Holy Spirit you are a new creation in Christ: the old has gone and the new has come. Every time you sense the devil and/or his demons reminding you of your past, or knocking at your door and trying to pull you away, remind them that you belong to Jesus and Jesus alone, and Jesus has forgiven me of all my sins - "Be gone, Satan." And pray to Jesus to rebuke the devil from your life.

Lord Jesus, I pray that you will guide our brother Al, and all of us in Christ, on the narrow path of righteousness for you namesake, Lord. Rebuke the devil and his demons from Al's life and comfort him with the confident assurance of your Holy Word, for your Word is TRUTH. In Jesus's mighty and holy name. Amen.
