Neutralising Satanic Prayers

Text: Luke 4:34; 22:31.

You will recall that we previously explored this topic in Luke 22:31, where Jesus warned Peter, ‘Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded to sift you all like wheat.’ As we know, sifting wheat is a violent and dangerous procedure, and for the wheat itself, it is a deeply painful process.

Sometimes they put it on the ground, and people are just stamping on it. So the satanic prayer was to sift Peter as wheat. But thank God, there was a counter prayer by Jesus, who said, “…. But I have prayed for thee.” Peter would have been wasted if not for that prayer.

Then we went into Mark 5 about the story of the mad man of Gadara, where Jesus asked the demons to leave the man. 6,000 demons in one man were making the man dwell among the dead. You know that the devil is wickedly wicked and badly bad. He kept this man in the grave

When Jesus addressed those spirits, they started praying:

Torment us not.

Leave us here in this country.

Send us into the pigs.

They prayed to Jesus. Then we started to look at satanic prayers, or more appropriately, in deliverance terminology; dark prayers.

They are: Prayers inspired by the enemy.

Prayers carrying satanic anointing.

Prayers outside the will of God. Occultic prayers. Witchcraft prayers.

Prayers by satanists.

Prayers that are not in line with the word of God.

And we defined these prayers in our teachings in the last two weeks. We also looked at Luke 4:34, which is very revealing. They said to Jesus:

Luke 4:34 (KJV): “Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.”

So they knew they could be destroyed. In the synagogue and temple, the people did not know Him, but the demons knew Him. We also read about Balaam, who was hired to curse the children of Israel with seven altars, seven bullocks, and seven rams.

And like I decreed the last time, I decree again today that any power engaging seven altars, seven bullocks, and seven rams against your destiny and against your life shall die, in the name of Jesus. (a seven-fold amen).

We Also  Looke At Different Types Of These Satanic Prayers:

There is the prayer of “torment me not”. It means  leave me alone to punish them or do not let us leave this country”. This is the first category of demonic prayers.

Then comes the second class of these evil prayers, which is the prayer of a sinner. An occultic man who is praying for you in the name of Jesus is not praying for you at all. The positive confession of a witch or occultic parent is negative and opposite in the spirit world.

Then we went to the third class of these evil prayers, which are curses issued against people. There are some religions that are religions of curses. And curses have put so many people in disarray. I pointed out to you that if you look at the Bible, when Peter said Jesus should not go to the cross and when Goliath was cursing David, the reaction of these two recipients was aggressive; they did not keep quiet.

The fourth class of satanic prayers is what some people know as horoscopes. That is, they want to know what your star is saying. Somebody says to you, “Bring your hand,” and you take your hand to the person, and he or she begins to interpret the lines on your palms and says, ‘This line is crossed by three other lines. This line means marriage. These three lines that cross it mean that your first, second, and third husbands will die,” and you leave your palm there; that is satanic prayer.

There is only one voice that has overruling power over anything the enemy is saying, which is the overruling voice of God. That is why the Bible says, ‘Even the lawful captives shall be delivered…’ That is, you have a right to be in that bondage. You caused the trouble, and now you are in it. So the enemy is lawfully punishing you. But the Bible says even that lawful captive shall be delivered.

I was in the UK in 1985. There is a place in London called Hammersmith. When I got there, I saw a long queue of people. I was wondering the reason for the queue. Then I saw an Indian woman at the front.

She was reading their palms and saying, “This line is long life, but you can see that yours is not touching down. It means you will not live long….and they stood there, nodding their heads. I went to the front of the queue and said to all of them, “Leave this place! You are all cursing yourselves  But they turned on me like a wild lion and said, mind your business!” So I went away. Those horoscopes are satanic prayers.
