FEEDING FROM THE WRONG SOURSE<br />
<br />
Over the last few days the Lord has lain this on my heart<br />
<br />
Many times whilst praying for my country and cities he has shown me the strongmen over theses places This same thing applies over all the world not just here in New Zealand<br />
I have seen the strongman holding the church in his arms like a baby soothing the baby rubbing its back holding it to his breast hugging the baby just as a mother holds an infant to her breast feeding it caressing the baby loving the baby<br />
Each city town has its own flavour i.e. its sin some its jealousy as in our town at the top some its gossip<br />
These sins are present in all places and the order may vary<br />
<br />
We have been bought up in the main as a people led by our feelings not the word if it feels good just do it like nike says<br />
The strongman comes as an angel of light to deceive the hearts of the people<br />
Now and again we have a move of God and some repentance comes and a little bit of revival starts but it doesn’t last long in the west because the people are led away by the strongmen rubbing the baby’s back feeding the baby on whisperings of gossip jealousy lust uncleanness and all fall back under the care of the strongmen<br />
The pastors are afraid to preach against sin because the people will be very upset and leave the church So the word does not get preached in its fullness nice sweet short sermons on how god wants to bless nothing on bringing the people back to repentance<br />
When young people come into the house scantily dressed nothing is said nothing preached teaching them how to live as its better to see them in church than leave offended then over time the spirit of God withdraws because of the sin in the house and we blame God for not showing up Knowing full well the word states many are called few are chosen<br />
With the older ones it’s the same pattern and the spirit of God lifts slowly off the church So they get someone in to preach a harder message once in a blue moon because the pastors are too afraid to<br />
So the strongmen hold the church in sin So God does not move and many in the church will go to hell because there is a famine for the word of the Lord in these days<br />
Many will say but we caste out demons in your name healed the sick raised the dead Jesus will say depart from me I never knew you He only knows those who are in close intimate relationship with him its not a religion its relationship that’s what its all about<br />
To win the battle we must fight the strongmen over our towns cities yes we can pray but there must be a commitment to God to the point where we live by the word not our feelings yes just do it the wordobama oprahtag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-07-03:916966:BlogPost:8523872009-07-03T22:28:39.000Zmike servicehttps://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/mikeservice

Oprah backed Obama into power he is the one who can bring christians and muslims together that will be wonderfull all one ONE IN WHAT ????<br />
IN Colossians chapter 2 v 18 we read do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions<br />
He has lost connection with the head from whom the whole body is supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews grows as God causes it to grow<br />
v23 such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom with their self imposed worship their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body BUT THEY LACK ANY VALUE IN RESTRAINING SENSUAL INDULGENCE<br />
We should be praying for them not following them they need prayer to turn to God when laws are passed contary to God they need prayer forgive pray and curse not<br />
Whilst It is great to have a black president at last wonderfull awesome but we must only support that which is of God<br />
Just because our leaders are white and im white I dont go along with all they say and believe just because they are white or a honky just because im one<br />
It does not matter wheather we are black white brown or pink if we belong to God we are one one family Our self esteem does not come from being of one race or another white is not supperior over any other it seems people are placing their self esteem on have a black president Everytime you think of how one has been held down or pushed aside just bless them get over it the self esteem lifts thenmikes story of abuse witchcraft to free healed set free in jesustag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-06-16:916966:BlogPost:8079292009-06-16T01:31:59.000Zmike servicehttps://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/mikeservice

Names have been changed as publication of them would result in legal action in new Zealand it is against the law in NZ to tell of family court proceedings out side of court<br />
The EARLY YEARS<br />
I was born in 1951 the third son and last of Norman and Vivian Service<br />
I was not wanted by my mum My first recollections of life were at Braxmere fishing lodge at Tokannu at the southern end of Lake Taupo I was happy I can remember being loved by the local Maori people feeling accepted loved<br />
WE then moved back to Auckland to Avondale in the western suburbs.<br />
My Dads parents lived next door they were great to me my Papa would come up to our house every night and would always tell me I was his boy and hug me The Service family were Masonic lodge people all the men for generations were involved. Mama and Papa started going to a Baptist church and there were many arguments they were born again<br />
Nana as we called her Mama’s mother lived with a friend up the road my great grandmother she had played the organ for smiths wriggles worth when he came to NZ Everyone in my family feared her but all I felt was love she taught music and taught my brothers how to play I would hide in the trees sometimes as she went past she would call me over place her hands on me and pray and speak over my life<br />
As for my own family my mum would take me to bed play with me sexually tell me I would never be any good with girls this was from a very early age<br />
Her father my grandad violated me twice I was taken into him by my mum and grandma his wife I ran away to find my Dad I was caught the first time at the top of our street the second time about a mile from home my Dad threw them out. My mum would talk to me of him but I could not remember him as I grew up or what he had done I only knew I could not talk properly<br />
Everyday I was told I was dirty filthy disgusting rotten filthy dumb useless piece of garbage my head was bashed against the wall as all this was spoken over me. I went to school most days sore and bruised I was / am a little deaf so I was belted everyday for being dumb I was not allowed to do my home work and my eldest brother would administer punishment if I tried at school<br />
My mum told me God always rejects the youngest and hates the youngest<br />
The youngest is also a scapegoat for the older ones in the family and must take the blame for all they do. My brothers when they had done wrong would blame me and I would get the belt<br />
My mum also took me with her when she had an abortion I had to wait for ages and when she came out she told me she had gotten rid of my little sister as we didn’t want her this gave me nightmares for years<br />
I would dream at night of driving over my family in an army tank till they were no more and my life was consumed by hate<br />
I will talk of these things later and how God healed me<br />
At 16 - 17 I would run away at night down near the local shops and at one dairy crawl in near this big German shepherd and hide behind the garbage bins and run home just before my dad came home<br />
THE WORD SPOKEN OVER MY LIFE<br />
When I was 16yrs Nana died just before she did I was called to her bedside she asked to see me alone my mum said no and took my brothers in first she prayed they would turn to the Lord. Then asked to see me alone my mum said no oh well was her response come here Michael and kneel beside me<br />
She laid hands on me and said you will be the first to know freedom and Jesus you will be the head as Abraham Isaac Jacob so I give you my blessing you are the one chosen by God<br />
At 18 my Papa did the same he told me you will never see me again and 48hrs later was gone. I was still not saved He told me you will go through hell but five years from now you will become a Christian.<br />
ANNOINTED FOR THE ENERMY<br />
At fourteen my Dad took me alone and after belting me for playing up with a local girl gave me my guardian angels ie enough demons to go on to become grand master of grand Masonic lodge new Zealand<br />
I had a lot of power from then on and was a on my way to a big future in the occult<br />
I went wild in life drinking myself to oblivion most nights living wild<br />
I would speed everywhere and when I was near a cop the hairs on my arms would stand up so I would slow down drive past and boot it go around a corner hide wait go home laugh at them out side my gate A Christian cop talked to me one day telling me I needed the Lord I remember laughing at him he caught me a few days later and let me off with a warning as we had helped him get to an accident earlier that day<br />
CHURCH LIFE<br />
A few months later I lay on my floor drunk as usual and cried out to the Lord it was five years since my Papas word to me<br />
I was invited to a church and gave my life to the Lord It was a big church and majored on holiness and I learnt so much but needed deliverance which I never received. I was always told if I read the word and devoured it I would be changed so I read and read and read one night I had an encounter with Jesus and I was changed later I was told I had become very unbalanced and was a faith freak and had to change although they majored on the word and I learnt so much deliverance was little taught and that’s what I needed I never felt accepted from the start there all the things I had struggled with were still going down in my life<br />
You had to go and ask if a young woman was interested in you and get permission to talk to her. Every time I went I was rejected later I found out they were never asked as I was not good enough Many times I was accused of saying disgusting things about the young woman and could never understand where they got the info from<br />
THE FIRST MARRIAGE<br />
Then I was pushed into a marriage to we will call her Jane. A few days before the marriage I tried to get out of it and was told I must go ahead later I was told the pastor said he wished I had and should have gotten hold of him<br />
The marriage was hell she was worse then my mother abusing yelling screaming pulling knives on me she would walk up to me and out of the blue tear my face open with her nails and then phone church elders and tell them I had just beaten her up and I would get in trouble. She would also phone the police telling them I was threatening her with a knife and to beat her up She would spend all the money and blame me once again going to the church about me The church tried to council us and help and it took a long time for them to see the truth<br />
I came home one day to see a leaflet sticking out of her draw it was on all the ways to frame your husband for sexually abusing daughters by the lesbian woman’s liberation front on of the ways was to make love to your husband and then plant all over the babies bed to frame him I found out a day or two later this is what she had done but was cleared<br />
Also about this time I was working in the garden cleaning up and put my hand into a hornets nest and got 30 stings in my arm I staggered inside and fell on the floor pleading for her to phone for an ambulance she refused I got up and started to do so but fell to the floor the pain was incredible then I remember looking down on my body and seeing all this light in the distance I said no Lord no Rosie needs me here to fight for her and I remember waking up as the ambulance arrived I got up and went out to meet them I was fine<br />
We had a daughter Rosie but because of the way she abused her I refused to have anymore. By the time she was two the marriage was on the rocks and I was accused of sexually abusing Rosie. She tried to frame me but all back fired on her We went to the family court and as it was days to Christmas it was orde’d I stay for the interim<br />
Up to this point she had gone to the church pleading I had not been giving her any money for food and the house had no food in it all the time.<br />
I came home two days after xmass to an empty house even all the things I had before our marriage were gone and family heirlooms smashed to pieces.<br />
I had to face court over and over on sex and abuse charges.<br />
THE WITCHES<br />
Rosies social workers were witches openly telling me so they told me after they had destroyed me they would be able to destroy the church and more churches would follow. I would come home and find all sorts of occult things done around the home. I went to court and after not seeing Rosie for months won custody of her. They were furious at their loss. Rosie complained of mums boyfriend sexually abusing her I reported this many times trying to get help for her. They got her taken away from me as I was an abuser it was never done in court I was taken to a mental hospital and after hours in a room being told my brain was dysfunctional and poor legal council I surrendered<br />
At this time they also broke into my house at night I awoke to find the queen on my bed touching me the next thing she was on top of me and I was pinned to the bed and raped It was no use phoning police as they had me on a list of violent sex offenders they would not investigate “john” at all and insisted I was the offender I spent hour that night after they had been crying in the bottom of the shower. The queen witch Rosies social worker told me as she left that will fix you for good This happened twice I did not know how to war as a Christian and had been taught to fear witches and evil<br />
<br />
Rosie also told of being taken to a place where all the woman wore black robes and men too they touched me down there and I had to touch them they also pricked me down there and put something into me it hurt The queen rang me to say she belongs to us now and will never be a Christian<br />
All this time children were placed into homes by social workers where they were abused every time these same social workers would state they were sorry they were overworked that how it happened<br />
I asked the Lord to show me what I was up against and prayed for some time I saw a vision from hell the social worker was at a coven along with the judge who hated me and many others who were in the system al professionals I had seen or heard of<br />
Everyday I got calls the police placed me on a list of abusers the police refused to investigate john the queen would phone up screaming at me how evil I was and how they would destroy the church and me and all Christians one day the mental hospital telling me my mind was very sick it was confused I really was an abuser but could not see the truth god did not exist only in my head I was very sick mentally. But they could not break me<br />
I began to get books on spiritual warfare and read them and slowly began to fight back they broke into my house numerous times I left all my dairies on the table they came in and ransacked the house phoned me up later telling me they would find them and take them one day they had been sitting on the table covered by a newspaper<br />
One night they arrived and I went out to their car and spoke out load can I cut their cord Lord and then they will die out loud they were using astral travel to come inside Jesus said no I had spoken out loud I went back inside they left and did not return for fear I would cut it the cord between body and spirit<br />
THE HIGH COURT<br />
I found a Christian barrister and went to the high court and set legal president in this country Rosie had been a court ward to protect her from me I won custody off the child welfare<br />
It was a huge fight we could not deal with john as we did not know who he was and no one would tell me At this stage I had left the church and was on my own The queen went to a couple in church who wanted to take Rosie off me and told them they could have her if they turned against me It was a lie as she could only be placed with blood relatives if neither myself or my ex could look after her The night before I left I could not sleep the Lord kept telling me I kept my son in Egypt I will take care of you we had been taught if we left the church we would never make it<br />
ROSIE WAS HOME<br />
Rosie was 8yrs old and a mess when I bought her home the child experts said looking after her was equal to looking after four normal children. She was taken to a children’s health camp for three months and I went for a one week parenting coarse there. Rosie told of a lot of the evil done to her by her mother and john and while there I was confronted about all the abuse I had suffered I almost cried but did not I had never cried all my life I was too tough for tears but upon returning home I broke down and cried for days<br />
I sat with God and just began to pour it out I had never had a childhood I did not know what it was like to be loved I had tried for all the years I was a Christian to be good enough for God to love me but still did not believe I was worth loving<br />
About this time I had met Cyril and Beth Tremain an awesome spirit filled salvation army couple who were into deliverance They started praying for me just prior to my going to High Court and they had me over and began to pray over me Over that year they prayed much with me as demon after demon was caste out as I opened up more we went deeper when it came to rejection my body went wild but also with many others<br />
I began to get free but my ex and the queen and the coven were contacting all claiming injustice I was a sex abuser they tried on a number of occasions to kill me One night I awoke as a hand with a knife came through the window above me I pulled the pillow up just in time and the knife hit the pillow and then the dog bit the arm but many attempts were made to get me<br />
So we left the city choosing to go to the far north of new Zealand to live near family<br />
MOVE TO THE FAR NORTH OF NEW ZEALAND<br />
We arrived at 1.45am in the morning in the north at a relatives home it was so late they had organised for us to live at the home of an absent friend but we stayed in their sleep out for the night. I had been asleep only minutes and Rosie was right next to me snuggled up when I was aware of a hand trying to touch her after a brief struggle and the assailant grabbing me by the throat I threw him off and whoever it was fled into the night. The family said they heard me having a night mare but on one could have come near us<br />
The next morning I was told if I was going to live near them I was expected to work in their shop for free for at least a year also I was whacked across the face and told I wish you had remained smaller than I so I could still beat you up<br />
We moved into his friends house for two months it was literally alive at night the woman who owned the house was supposedly the greatest demon caster out a in the region but spirits were all around and through the house. This relative told me I could never be free unless this woman prayed for me She never did get the opportunity<br />
We moved into town shortly afterwards to begin a new life but it was a diaster my relatives phoned around to tell all I was a sex abuser along with the queen also small country communities can be deadly with gossip<br />
Everywhere we went I was rejected evil I managed to get a job but I was supposed to have made disgusting phone calls to a woman there and was sacked I would have made enough money to clear my debts as I had been on welfare and still owed money from my business days to the tax department<br />
Later I found out many in the district were receiving ring for a second calls the phone just starts to ring and stops all were told I did these They were also told I was a stalker of woman at night I used to take my old dog out walk up the hill above the town watch the sun go down and come home<br />
Rosie left about this time for a holiday with her mother and did not come back Every time she made friends they were contacted and told I was a sex offender my family and social worker joining forces She did not return and I was alone. I got to know a lady in the church with a young daughter then I got a call from Auckland telling me if I did not break this friendship I would have court orders placed on me I was reported for sexual offences against my daughter benefit fraud (I was on welfare) tax fraud by family I was told<br />
Also within 4 months I had to break my friendship with my lady I was bankrupted by the tax department they were going to let me off all I owed but when it was reported to them I was a fraudster and had a new business going (a lie) they bankrupted me The lady I loved was stalked and although I was not in town but far away in Auckland the church asked time to admit I had done it I would not so I was excommunicated from church then my grandmother mums died my dad died and my old dog all within weeks<br />
My relative phoned to say they were so glad they had destroyed me for good<br />
Here I was out of church completely all support gone my Dad had helped me so much in the last years everything was gone I would get up and wait on God before I went down town I had to walk past the church every time where I had been thrown out of and many would stare and make nasty comments at me as I went they were the Christians and it hurt I had to just bless them back and carry on<br />
My relatives also became gare givers of Rosie at this time they would around showing their trophy to all people believing I had been convicted of abuse .<br />
But God had begun to move mightily in my life as we came to this stage I kept waking up at night dreaming I was back at the old family home gripped with fear in front of that old room I could never go into so I asked the Lord if there is something I need to face then take me back there to over come it but I need you to go with me. That night it came back but as I went down the passage Jesus was standing by the door he looked at me and said lets go in together so he took my hand and in we went Then I saw grandad on the bed on top of me and I knew what he had done I was so angry I wanted to find his grave and smash it to a million pieces he had violated those times that’s why I had run away. My Dad had found out and thrown them from the house that’s why my Mum always blamed me for ruining her marriage her life.<br />
Two women social workers stepped up and tried to help one a govt one the other worked for a local Maori organisation both died within days of each other in head on car crashes<br />
Also I was hit by cars several times at night on the way home this was deliberate<br />
Then when I had been thrown out of the church I decided to end it all but a friend phoned God had laid on her heart I wanted to end it all we love you God loves you I said ok I wont but was still going to then Cyril phoned he was not put off that easy and wouldn’t let me go I had worked out what to do but needed to be up at the road at 10.30 as the truck convoy came through but he kept me talking till 10.40 so I did not do it<br />
JESUS COME TO HEAL DELIVER SET FREE<br />
That night I had a dream Jesus came into the room and stood there he had a garment around his waist and his chest was bare he looked at me and said I have come to set you free I need to hug you to set you free. I screamed at him to -’/.; off no one hugs me and not like that I just went mad as and he left gone I cried I thought I had sent my lover away forever I cried and cried and cried and fell asleep again. He came back and looked at me and said are you ready I nodded he came over and picked me up in his arms hugged me and kissed me. For the first time in my life I knew I was loved really loved we went through my life<br />
I saw a little baby I was only days old when I went back to hospital dying I saw a nurse about 50 saying to all the others oh they were saying he wont live she said I will save him his mother doesn’t want him she picked the baby up and hugged him tubes and all and spent time coming back again and again stroking my head showing love I recovered Then he showed me braxmere down Taupo and all the Maori ladies picking me up hugging me etc then it was Avondale Auckland my great grandmother my grand parents and others<br />
He looked at me with such love and said I sent them all to you but now I have come myself to you oh we talked so much that night I woke the next morning totally drunk on love filled with the spirit so filled I could not walk<br />
Also at around this time I had a dream I was in a field of flowers they swayed in the breeze there was a beautiful blonde woman standing in front of me she looked like a service she said come here mike I want to hug you I pulled back Jesus was standing there he said you can hug her she’s your sister the one your mum aborted she was so beautiful she has the name I gave her.<br />
After my seeing Jesus my stutter went within two days and I could talk properly<br />
Just over a year later I left town and moved to Thames new job new town I thought my family called my employers and warned them I was a sex offender and made dirty phone calls once again and it all happened again only this time as a punishment all the boxes in the freezers I was working in were pushed on top of me. My arm shoulder were damaged beyond repair I was sacked and also placed on a nation wide list of unemployable people because of my offending using the phone to harass women and all the stalking<br />
The lady I was going to marry up north married a friend of my family as they wanted it lasted less than two years the church who threw me out it was the pastors wife whom God? Gave the word to that I was guilty she got throat cancer and was unable to talk for a long time all who believed all the evil and retaliated have been through deep water<br />
MOVE TO THAMES<br />
At Thames I would go for long walks up into the bush/ mountains I found a huge rock the witches used for sacrifice and prayed over it for hours we had a huge storm come and the rock was rolled over several times and when I went back it was clean as oh it was the size of a small house<br />
Whilst there I was still seeing children placed into homes where they were abused by govt social workers the queen and her friends and was sick of it<br />
I spoke to some and was encouraged to speak up about it all. Also I heard through the grape vine John had gone to jail for abusing Rosie all was to be sealed and I’m not to know anything to this day I would be entitled to compensation for all they have done he was related to the queen either brother or cousin to this day all has to remain hidden under strict govt order<br />
MOVE TO ROTORUA<br />
I wrote to all the TV stations in new Zealand after I moved to Rotorua lots of members of parliament etc some Christian members of parliament sought to get a commission of enquiry going all attempts failed<br />
Our last govt was run by witches the new govt is a bit better but all is to be kept under wraps still<br />
I was seen by a senior policeman and told if I kept stirring against such powerful people I would end up encased in concrete at the bottom of the sea.<br />
Well I’m still alive because its not Gods time for me to go and he is more powerful than all the witches etc combined from all the world<br />
If it were starting now I would make mince meat of them all me and Jesus no problem and I know where to go for prayer backing<br />
Rosie still does not contact me she believes the lies she has been told We pray for her each day and that is all we can do God is faithful and will bring her again from the land of the enemy<br />
I got married again to Geraldine in Rotorua many told her not to I was a monster but she listened to God I was not supposed to be able to have children but as you will see we have Katie and I have not taken any hormone stuff for years God is so faithful<br />
I am now the stay at home half of the family and care for Katie all day and prepare dinner and all that for all my girls<br />
Also my arm is healed and doesn’t bother me at all now well I would love to be able to wind my fishing rod in that’s about all I cant do. It used to hang like a useless piece of meat oh God is good<br />
Satan works on fear when he attacks us if we fear him he drives us back if we stand our ground he retreats<br />
I am just so thankful God is awesome there is nothing the enemy throws at us that he cant bring us through nothing<br />
I CAN IDENTIFY WITH SONG OF SOLONMON I AM MY BLOVEDS AND HE IS MINE<br />
We now live in Wanganui I am married to Geraldine we have Nyasha and Katie god is so faithful he bought me againevolution racismtag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-05-31:916966:BlogPost:7656272009-05-31T18:42:43.000Zmike servicehttps://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/mikeservice

But no that cant be I’m told so often<br />
The last one who argued with me I told them she learnt English and nursing from the monkeys in the trees<br />
But in reality there is a definite link between evolution and the way we in the west see black people racism<br />
Monkey’s down out of trees to people standing up right to more evolved white people racism<br />
We see images on tv of so much suffering etc and help needed and do little because they are of less value than us we seem to have been sold a lie they don’t have the same feelings etc as us primitive we devalue them as people and worth as much as us<br />

In the past up to the 70’s we gave and gave to third world ministries supported them with money prayers missionaries and so much more. We gave when we did not have much ourselves AND GOD BLESSED THE WESTERN CHURCH The church was strong we evangelised everywhere we went and God blessed all we did<br />
Today we sow to ministries that promise we will get a one hundred fold increase on our money THAT’S IMPOTANT<br />
We tell those frontline ministries even in our own countries to pray more so God can bless them<br />
We hear of third world churches who have taken in aids orphans they cant feed to pray for God to help them and give little<br />
We need bigger better in the west sound systems churches the best this and that and we must keep up with all the latest in all the other churches around us as we fear loosing people<br />
YET THE CHURCH TODAY IN THE WEST IS WEAK INEFFECTIVE AND REGARDED AS IRRELAVANT WORLD AROUND US<br />
WHEN READING PAULS EPISTLES WE SEE HOW THEY GAVE IN TIMES OF NEED TO EACH OTHER AND GOD BLESSED<br />
THE 3RD WORLD CHURCH is then in danger of resenting the west for its lack of mercy and hard heart<br />
Then as resentment etc takes root in its heart this can can then cut them off from the revival they are presently experiencing<br />
They need to forgive and bless the western church for its lack of love and hard heart every day there by pouring hot coals on their western counterparts least they loose the anointing of God from their own church<br />
Yes the western church is rich has need of nothing but cant see that it is naked poor blind and pitiful<br />
LET US THEN RETURN TO THE LORD BE OBEDIENT TO HIM AND HIS COMMANDS FOLLOW HIS WAYS<br />
TO OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE<br />
LET US TAKE OUR EYES OF $$$$ MONEY AND FOCUS ON JESUS THE MONEY SYSTEM OF THIS WORLD IS UNDER A CURSE AT THIS TIME<br />

THE STAG AND THE GRISSLEY<br />
I watched a nature film one day and I saw this mighty stag going down the river looking for a place to get out. It came out onto a gravel island in the middle of the river and sat and rested. The banks on either side of the river were steep but around the next corner was a beach on the side and an easy way back to open country. But the stag could not see this.<br />
Then along came the bear. The bear saw dinner and climbed down the bank and set out for the island<br />

THE STAG AND THE GRISSLEY<br />
I watched a nature film one day and I saw this mighty stag going down the river looking for a place to get out. It came out onto a gravel island in the middle of the river and sat and rested. The banks on either side of the river were steep but around the next corner was a beach on the side and an easy way back to open country. But the stag could not see this.<br />
Then along came the bear. The bear saw dinner and climbed down the bank and set out for the island<br />
As the bear came out onto the gravel they sized each other up. I thought the stag would go down the river but no he lowered his antlers and charged the bear with all he had. The bear went over onto his back and the stag pushed him back over the gravel for twenty feet or more. The bear hung on to his antlers and the stag lifted him up above his head and smashed him down into the gravel time after time the battle went on for a long time and at one stage it looked like the stag would win. Several time the stag could have escaped but he chose to fight on.<br />
Then all of a sudden the bear got one paw on each of the stags front legs and he began to stretch him. The stag now started to stagger and he tried in vain to flee but it was too late<br />
It was dinner time venison for dinner. Yes slowly he went down<br />
So it is in our lives we need to seek the Lord is it time to stand is it time to flee<br />
Sometimes we need to leave things with the Lord and let him deal with all he has his time when he brings victory<br />
We sow and reap in life and strife is well worth avoiding and if we get out of the spirit things can come back badly on us<br />
One day the lion and the lamb will lie down together all will be at peace when the King comes back soon<br />
But we can have peace now with one another and live a life of peace and joy now living in the river with the Lord full of Gods love joy peace mercy forgiveness. Through a life submitted to him<br />
So let us come to him and let him empower us to be like him<br />
May the Lord bless you all<br />

My big black spider<br />
While cleaning my house one day about six months ago, in the corner of my lounge window I noticed a big black spider. As I pulled down his web he disappeared into a crack. Then I noticed he was outside looking in at me. So I went outside and proceeded to pull down his web.<br />
He peered out from his crack with pleading eyes so I let him stay. Over the months I saw my spider catch many a fly and mosquito and sometimes a wasp or two. It didn’t seem to matter what flew into that…
My big black spider<br />
While cleaning my house one day about six months ago, in the corner of my lounge window I noticed a big black spider. As I pulled down his web he disappeared into a crack. Then I noticed he was outside looking in at me. So I went outside and proceeded to pull down his web.<br />
He peered out from his crack with pleading eyes so I let him stay. Over the months I saw my spider catch many a fly and mosquito and sometimes a wasp or two. It didn’t seem to matter what flew into that corner all were doomed for dinner and he got bigger and bigger, fatter and fatter, blacker and blacker. Often I chased the flies up to help him.<br />
Alas when I got home one Friday night I noticed he was in the open and he didn’t look right. I looked at him a little later and he was still there in the open so I got the broom to reach up to him and give him a nudge and check him out. Alas he fell to the floor and as he did a black wasp crawled out barley alive. It buzzed around in circles on the floor it had been trapped by the spiders legs and web, unable to free itself until I nudged it free<br />
It must have been a gigantic struggle as they bit and stung each other to death. The wasp must have thought I won I won yippee as it stung that big black spider to death. But alas he was caught by the spiders web and legs and he had been bitten. I left him there as he had crawled into a corner but alas within an hour he was dead.<br />
In the word we are told in Galatians if we keep on biting and devouring each other we will be destroyed by one another. Its easy to get pulled into a web criticizing each other gossiping back bitting hating but like the wasp and the spider we destroy each other.<br />
As God loves and forgives we are called to do likewise who we chose to have a fight with will hold us in a web<br />
The spider and the wasp didn’t have a choice we do<br />
Love to all<br />

Preface<br />
In 2004/2005 I made a missionary trip to Ghana to help establish a Christian work there. I ministered to the people corporately and privately. I learned a lot about the people, nation and customs. This lesson is written about the witchcraft practiced in Ghana. Basically the following is worship of demons and idolatry of other gods other than THE FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT. These bring many spiritual and other problems on Ghana contributing to the condition the nation is in today.<br />
Significance of Festivals in Ghana<br />
Many of the activities associated with the festivals result in tensions. We visualize these tensions through the metaphor of call and response dancers responding to the urgent call of drumming, food-carrying messengers responding, swaying and bending to the calls of the spirits possessing them. Women; cooling and praising with fanning cloths, responding to these spirit-laden messengers. the festival itself is a response to the call of spiritual and social renewal.<br />
Fetish Priests<br />
Fetish priests date back to at least 1733 and have played a significant role in Ghana. One practice was to drink fetish.<br />
Black Stool<br />
The Black Stool embodies the soul of the State and his authority to rule over his State.<br />
Paul Isert's Letters (1786)<br />
It is the general custom that if they present a stranger something to drink they have to try it first, before they present it to him as a sign that there is no poison in it. This custom may have been necessary in earlier times where they still tried to get rid of their enemies in that way. Now they know a more profitable method, they sell them to Europeans.<br />
Festivals Held In The Akupem Traditional Area<br />
It is the festival celebrated on two separate days to mark periodic visits to the sacred stool house for the performance of the rites of offering drinks and food to the sacred stools. The chief and his elders offer prayers to request long life, prosperity, knowledge and good health for the chiefs, elders and the people of the area.<br />
If someone dies on the day of the Adae or the day before, it is considered a taboo, since it is viewed as desecration. In that case, the day is not observed and the relatives of the deceased, have to sanctify the sacred stools by the slaughtering of sheep.<br />
All forms of noise-making activities are banned; the drums are not beaten, dirges are not sung, funerals are not held and mourning is banned. In short, it is a period of showing reverence to the gods and sacred stools by keeping noise levels to the barest minimum.<br />
If anyone refuses to abide by the regulations governing Adaebutuw, the one is compelled to slaughter a sheep to pacify the gods.<br />
One of the most significant festival celebrated is Odwire, during which the people sanctify themselves, get in tune with their inner-selves and make merry to appease their souls. That is the time the people remember prominent citizens, geniuses and their own deceased relatives.<br />
During the celebration of the yam festival, the newly harvested yam is taken out doors and the gods are fed with the new yam. Before the new yam is taken out doors, it is a taboo to carry the raw yam in the open or sell it in the market place. It is also a taboo to eat new yams.<br />
They feed their gods and ancestors, sanctify themselves and make merry. After parading the town with the new yam, the executioners go to the sacred grove to bring the Odwira. They also inform the chief and his elders about the good job they did at the grove. As they move around, they mark the foreheads and chest of the chief and his elders with a substance they bring along, to signify the Odwira blessing.<br />
Wednesday is a very solemn day set aside for mourning the dead. They also feed their various sacred stools - both small and great ones.<br />
On Thursday, the drums are beaten and the people bring their ancestral food. The meals include these belonging to the paramount chief, sub-chiefs and great personalities who have passed on.<br />
Many of the male adults who during their childhood, were paraded as the souls and relatives of the carriers, support them on both sides while they move in the procession to the grove where the ancestors are fed. At the grove, the chief stool bearer pours water on the ground and recites the following: Elders, we offer you water, Are you listening? We have no evil intention. It is once again, time to honor you, feed you and offer you water.<br />
The procession returns to the Mpeni tree, which is considered as sacred. They proceed to the old palace, the sacred fenced old burial grounds for departed royals, and the entry points of the various sectors of the town, to perform the same activities. The elders also perform the rite known as sesadompe to end the day's celebrations.<br />
The second Sunday, the paramount chief and all the males who have acted as his soul, sanctify themselves by observing Abam.<br />
The Art and Culture of Ohum and Odwira<br />
Odwira means purification. Like other parts of Ghana, Ohum and Odwira have important political, social and religious significance.<br />
Purification of the land and people by the chief and priest for the spiritual and social renewal to face the trials and triumphs of another year - a high priest sprinkles water mixed with adwira leaves to cleanse and purify. Royal stools and sacred places are also cleansed.<br />
Mourning those who passed away in the year. Making a new agricultural year by introduction of new yam, feeding with the brave ancestors who are deemed to be present on such occasions.<br />
The festivals are mainly the dramatization of sacred traditions, myths, and legends, handed down by the ancestors of the Oman. Tuesday has stool washing rituals. Wednesday has State mourning for departed souls. Libation pouring and other customary rites are performed at the ancestral village. Thursday is a day set aside for general feasting and presentation of gifts to the stool.<br />
By way of re-affirming allegiance to the Paramount Stool, the chiefs come before the Omanhene, on after the other, to pay homage. After brief drumming and dancing sessions, the senior state linguist pours libation for the prosperity of the Sate and all present.<br />
It is thought that fetish or juju is for the black man. One very interesting aspect of Akuapem social life is that Christianity is very dominant, yet the indigenous customs and traditions still exist.<br />
Celebrations Event Day By Day<br />
Monday: Path Clearing: After preparatory sacrifices, those will leave the town to clear the pathway leading to the royal mausoleum. It has a symbolic value. It does not only open the gates so that the ancestors may come in and eat, but also keeps the lines of communication open between the living and the ancestors so that the ancestors may travel home without hindrances.<br />
Tuesday: Bringing in the Odwira: The group will return with a purifying, strengthening mixture which has been prepared. They will also bring other sacred materials, all combining to form the symbol representing the Odwira which will be ceremonially presented.<br />
Wednesday: Remembering the Departed: Starting from dawn, there will be general mourning in remembrance of dead relatives in almost every house.<br />
Thursday: Symbolic cleansing of the traditional area and people: The black stools will be taken to the Adami stream for purification. The ritual of unification will be done under strict security precautions.<br />
Renewing of allegiance: Chiefs will go to the stool room to renew their allegiances to the paramount stool.<br />
Feeding the ancestors: Food will be carried in procession to feed the ancestors. It is significant to note how many of the carriers of this sacred food are possessed by the spirits of the ancestors.<br />
Customary blessings: Divisional chiefs will meet in the stool house to renew their allegiance to the Oton Stool.<br />
Friday: Shortly before the great durbar, the ancestral food of the Asonahene stool will also be sent to Nsorem.<br />
Deliverance<br />
The above practices can be listed under the general practices of witchcraft: spirits possessing those involved with these activities, submitting to fetish priests who worship other gods, eating and drinking fetish and juju food, worshiping and sacrificing to stools, selling their enemies into slavery, following taboos, sacrificing animals, showing reverence to the gods and stools, sanctifying, cleansing and purifying themselves for worship of gods, worship of ancestors, worshiping sacred landmarks, dedication children to dead ancestors, following sacred rites, traditions, myths and legends, and pouring libations. Take the person through deliverance from evil spirits.<br />
Female genital Mutilation (FGM)<br />
This is a traditional practice that has taken a deep root in the societies. The Practitioners of FGM believe that they were chosen by the gods to practise this act. Therefore stopping the practice will mean they they have disobeyed the gods. As a result, the gods will bring hardships on them and their families; this might result in the death of the practitioner or a family member.<br />
Some traditional beliefs which are incorrect are as follows: Mothers believe that if their daughters are circumcised, then they can perform important rites at their funeral. A woman who has not under gone FGM is considered not clean enough to handle food or water and an unmutilated female cannot conceive. Some other FGM societies believe that if the clitoris touches a man's penis that man might die or become impotent. It is also the belief that the newborn might die if the head touches the mother's clitoris. If he does not die, then he will become a stubborn child as he grows. the frightening part is the belief that mutilation would prevent vaginal cancer; for fear of the unknown, the practice continues.<br />
There are health consequences of FGM, physical complications and psychological effects: severe pain or bleeding, infection, HIV/AIDS, broken bones of legs, leaking of urine, painful menstruation, difficulty in the sexual act and during pregnancy and delivery, agony and pain leading to depression and isolation, fear of operation, dreading sex because of anticipated pain, dreading childbirth, frigidity, withdrawal, martial disharmony, dehumanizing, mutilation, and related characteristics. Pray for the person's healing of body and soul.<br />
There are spiritual consequences of FGM: allowing a person to operate who is practicing witchcraft and is subject to gods (demons), and spirits associated with demonic traditional beliefs. Take the person through deliverance from evil spirits.<br />

PREFACE<br />
This is a combination of American, Caribbean and African witchcraft. Caribbean Witchcraft is in the southern states and moving inland. If you have African, Spanish or French ancestry, Caribbean Witchcraft may have affected you. I have tried to separate Caribbean Witchcraft from other more common types of witchcraft.<br />
THE SAINTS IN LIGHT<br />
Dr. Bern Zumpano is a medical doctor, psychiatrist and pastor that casts out demons. Noteworthy is the fact that in every country or nation in which these forms of witchcraft are practiced, the nations are in poverty and oppression (spiritual, physical, political), and the people are demonically oppressed or even demonized. They are often naked, and have great need and lack because they are cut off from God and His ways.<br />
An example would be the Caribbean witchcraft, spirits such as those of Cuban Santeria, where the gods such as San Lazarro (Saint Lazarus) and Santa Barbara (Saint Barbara) are Christianized cover-ups for African nature spirits worshipped by slaves brought from Africa to Cuba and other areas of the Caribbean and South America.<br />
Other examples of such witchcraft are that of the practice of Macumba of Brazil, Obeah of Jamaica, and the Voodoo of Haiti.<br />
MINISTERING DELIVERANCE<br />
Paul Fernandez is an evangelist. Paul, Eve and myself wrote a School of Deliverance - Outline of Instruction. He states that there is a parallel between: Macumba (Portuguese), Voodoo (French) and Santeria (Spanish). This is because of the different languages in the countries.<br />
DELIVERANCE AND HEALING MANUAL<br />
Rex Shanks is a deceased deliverance minister. His favorite statement is "Get them free and free indeed." He shares about his experiences in the Caribbean (Haiti, Jamaica and Trinidad) relative to witchcraft and voodoo. It is said that the main thing voodooism spirits do is to figure out who is in charge. Then they try to stop the leader so that the meetings cannot be held. You are fighting a real enemy, the Devil.<br />
Once, he encountered one of the worst voodooism forces; they said if it had hit him, it would have killed him. Another time, he jumped a small stream, something hit him from behind, pushed his face into the mud, and he could not move. Another time, he saw a form about 8' to 9' tall, 20' wide and 1' to 2' thick. It hit him and forced his foot into the frame of the bridge, breaking his leg. Another time, something closed his throat so that he could not speak outloud. Another time, he saw about 15 to 20 snake spirits wrapped around the chest of a pastor. Another time, he saw snakes tied around a husband's waist. He saw darts sticking out of his wife's body.<br />
EVERY WIND OF DOCTRINE<br />
Voodoo<br />
Voodoo (from voiding meaning spirit) is a folk religion of Haiti, consisting of a mixture of African witchcraft and elements from other religions and cults, including Roman Catholicism and Spiritism.<br />
Initially Voodoo came to the Western Hemisphere over 200 years ago when the first African slaves were sold in the West Indies. From there it was introduced into the United States, resulting in heavy concentrations of Voodoo worshippers in the South, especially in New Orleans.<br />
The Africans brought with them their religious beliefs and practices, which were in turn modified by indigenous concepts, by Roman Catholicism and Spiritism, as well as by other religious traditions and superstitions. Voodoo (often called Hoodoo by African descendants) is still practiced in many places in the world today, such as Haiti, South America, Africa, Trinidad, Jamaica, Cuba, and in the United States, especially in the South and in Harlem, or wherever there are heavy concentrations of African descendents. In many cities today (New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, New Orleans) one can purchase a wide assortment of witchcraft and voodoo supplies, including such things as hexing dolls, ingredients for casting magic spells, black candles, and charm powders. Just a few years ago in Arizona, a woman under a voodoo spell was arrested for shooting her husband. The reports of revenge killings, strange illnesses, accidents, injuries, curses, and other atrocities committed by Voodoo cults against their enemies are quite well known.<br />
As history shows, the slaves were generally oppressed and had few liberties; Voodoo worship and ritual, therefore, became an outlet for their frustrations. Since the rites were secret, it was also a means of gaining a measure of freedom by participation with other slaves in something from which the white man was excluded. Membership in the cult also afforded one protection against the black magic of others, as well as access to magical charms and remedies in case of illness or injury.<br />
The voodoo religion consists primarily of the worship of ancestors and a complicated hierarchy of gods who, according to Voodoo beliefs, seek to manifest themselves by taking possession of their worshippers during their frenzied dances. This amalgamation of ancestral spirits and deities is known collectively as loa. During their ceremonies as they drink and dance wildly, the participants fall into a trance and supposedly become possessed by these spirits (which are actually demons). In this state the possessing spirit may manifest itself and begin to speak, sing, or curse, as well as offer advice, or cure the sick.<br />
Although Voodoo ceremonies vary somewhat from place to place, they are essentially the same. They are presided over by a priest or priestess who leads the rituals, which include singing and dancing to the sensuous beat of drum rhythms, thus invoking the presence of the spirits. There are ritual offerings of food, and the blood offerings of animals or fowls. As the music, drink and dances begin to take effect, one after another of the participants begin to fall into a state of trance as the demons (impersonating ancestors or gods) begin to take possession of their devotees, who then take on the characteristics of the god or deceased ancestor.<br />
The Voodoo cults practice both white and black magic, and engage in various forms of Spiritism and occultism (mediumistic trance, divination, magic charming, etc.) There are magic rituals designed for the successful performance of practically any purpose desired from inflicting injury or death upon an enemy to bringing good luck in marriage, or success in one's business.<br />
The figure of the zombie, which was imported from Africa, is the Voodoo belief that a corpse can be reanimated by a spirit who can then be made to obey mechanically the wishes of the Voodoo priest. One of the most curious aspects of voodooism is the incorporation into its rites of portions of Catholic rituals, prayers, liturgies and the reverence of the saints. Most Voodoo services to honor the loa are conducted by priests before an altar covered with candles and surrounded with the pictures and statues of the saints, amid hymns addressed to them and to the Virgin Mary.<br />
OCCULT ABC - EXPOSING OCCULT PRACTICES AND IDEOLOGIES<br />
Black Mass<br />
In Haiti, the high priest drinks the blood of children at the annual festival. In the Macumba groups in Brazil, the same thing is done at the initiation of a Mae de Santo (cult mother).<br />
Queen of Darkness - Queen of Black Witches<br />
The leaders of this cult still practice child sacrifice, and occasionally even sacrifice adults, in connection with cannibalism. There are cult mothers of the spiritist Macumba cult. Haiti is the home of voodoo, a mixture of black magic and criminal spiritism. Here a Queen of Darkness is chosen each year, one of whose duties is to perform the fourteen-day child sacrifice. Practices of the Queens include devil worship, high priestesses, black witches, exhuming fresh graves, Satanists, insanity, dancing in the nude, sex orgies, lesbianism, homosexuality, sadistic and masochistic excesses, levitation, killing birds in flight, making objects appear and disappear, apport or demonstration of powers, and walking through a great bonfire. (New Orleans has a Queen of Black Witches.)<br />
Vampires<br />
(Do you think vampirism is going on today?) Vampirism is practiced by Satanists and those who have sold themselves to the Devil with their blood, by the Macumba people, and by those who practice voodoo. These people torture their fellow humans, especially children, sucking their blood or drinking it as part of a ritual, or in the celebration of the black mass. This includes spiritism, demon cult, and demon marriage with incubus or succuba.<br />
Conquest of the Mighty<br />
Some of the strongest forms of spiritism and magic are found among the Macumba groups in South America, Voodoo in Haiti, the Zombis in Africa and Asia, and the Shamans of Siberia and Alaska.<br />
Roman Catholic Church<br />
Many witches have sought out the Roman priesthood as part of their magical development. Totally Pagan magical religions like Voodoo, Macumba and Santeria can effortlessly blend African gods and goddesses like Erzulie within Catholic devotions to Mary.<br />
Rock Music<br />
Many of the rock giants of the past have acknowledged the influence of voodoo (which is an African / Catholic hybrid religion from Haiti), juju and Obeah (African magic) in their music.<br />
WEBSTERS NEW TWENTIETH CENTURY DICTIONARY UNABRIDGED<br />
Creole<br />
Creole is the result of intermixing of the African, French and Spanish races and religious traditions of the French, Spanish and African migrants. Creole in New Orleans is associated with Voodoo. How many of you are Creole?<br />
Prayer for Creoles<br />
I forgive my African, French and Spanish nationalities for their sins against the people of those nationalities. I ask that you forgive them and bless them with salvation. I break Creole curses on me in THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST. Amen<br />
Voodoo<br />
A body of primitive rites and practices, based on a belief in sorcery and in the power of charms, fetishes, etc. found among natives of the West Indies and in the southern United States, and ultimately of African origin.<br />
BLOOD ON THE DOORPOSTS<br />
Procedures For Renouncing Strongmen From Various Cults<br />
Voodoo<br />
1. The Egyptian Magic Current then emigrated to the French colonies in the New World, where it joined with African Obeah and French Catholicism to produce Voodoo.<br />
2. Voodoo is one of the most dangerous and perverted forms of witchcraft, involving demonic possession, drunkenness, necromancy and bestiality. Underneath its apparently primitive facade is a terrible and sophisticated system of magickal machinery involving the entrance into alien universes and the surrender of yourself to satanic possession of the worst kind.<br />
3. It's the most powerful form of black magic and probably the most shameless.<br />

DELIVERANCE FROM VOODOO AND AFRICAN CURSES<br />
Preface<br />
Many black people have been involved with voodoo, root workers and doctors, conjure men, and Haitian, African and Black Southern Witchcraft. They do not know about psychic, mystic or hypnotism, but do know about roots. Roots is African Witchcraft brought to America during the slave-trading years. There can be a demonic mixture in the Black churches that came in through a revival of African Witchcraft sometimes under the disguise of Christianity.<br />
Black Americans<br />
In both Haitian Voodoo and Black Voodoo or Witchcraft, both have a belief in the crossroads. The Black American Crossroads and the cross symbol are used to ward off evil. There is nothing holy about it.<br />
This is why the Black people call this root working or root worker. It must be understood that Blacks call types of sorcery, divination or voodoo - witchcraft.<br />
The Black American, in much of the religious beliefs, still cling to certain personal charms or voodoo and witchcraft beliefs. This is a black mixture of voodoo and Christianity.<br />
New Orleans<br />
The Creole Blacks, each year on November 1st gather graveyard dirt from various cemeteries under certain conditions to get a wish, whether good or evil.<br />
Voodoo or Witchcraft is often used for hating, loving, gambling, and keeping one out of jail. The books Secrets Of Albertus Magnus and the Sixth And Seventh Book Of Moses were used to work witchcraft.<br />
Members of the serpent god, Python, the priest and priestess communicated the will of the sacred serpent. In New Orleans voodooism was, in fact, a system of fetish idolatry. Its main feature consisted of the worship of the serpent and Zombie.<br />
The spirit of Li Grand Zombi, and the Python spirit are ruling spirits that guard and over shadow the faithful voodoo worshippers. The word Magnam is associated with voodoo. The priest and priestess are called king and queen, master and mistress, papa and mama.<br />
A red ribbon was worn about the neck in honor of Monsieur Agoussou, the demon upon whom the practitioners called on regarding matters of love. The demon especially loved the color red. This is Love Voodoo.<br />
Louisiana<br />
This voodoo service describes what such a service is like which opens the door to demon possession. The king (priest) places his foot upon the box containing the snake. He seems to get a sort of shock which is transmitted to his queen, and through her to everyone in the circle. Violent convulsions take place, the queen being the most violently affected. From time to time, the serpent is again touched to get more magnetic power. The box is shaken, and tinkling bells on the side increase the general delirium already under way, aggravated by much drinking of spirituous liquors.<br />
Then is pandemonium let loose. Fainting fits and choking spells succeed one another. A nervous tremor possesses everybody. No one escapes its power. They spin with incredible velocity, whilst some, in the midst of these bacchanalian orgies, tear flesh with their gnashing teeth. Others, entirely deprived of reason, fall down to the ground from sheer lassitude, and are carried, still panting and gyrating into the open air.<br />

1. OUR BODY IS INTENDED TO BE THE TEMPLE OF THE<br />
HOLY SPIRIT<br />
(1 Corinthians 3:16,17; 1 Corinthians 6:19, 20)<br />
Plan of Satan to defile temple, e.g. sexual intercourse outside of<br />

My first deliverance - spirit of abortion cast out of a Christian.<br />
Man aged 40 years curled up like foetus and screamed. Mother had<br />
tried to abort him when he was in the womb.<br />
Radio reporter had similar vision of angels around our home. Study<br />
became like a zoo.<br />
2. SATAN SEEKS TO INVADE THE BODY OF THE<br />
BELIEVER AND THE UNBELIEVER<br />
(1) Can a Christian have a demon?<br />
Correct terminology:<br />
(a) Nothing in original Greek to justify putting the word<br />
“possessed” alongside the word “demons”. The correct<br />
translation is to have an unclean, evil spirit. (Matthew<br />
11:18)<br />
(b) A Christian cannot be possessed by demons but can<br />
be under the influence of or have an evil spirit. Ananias<br />
and Sapphira. (Acts 5:3)<br />
Example. (Proverbs 20:27; Proverbs 20:30)<br />
I have prayed for a pentecostal pastor of 20 years<br />
experience who had breathing problems. He manifested<br />
demons before he was healed.<br />
(2) Satan is an intelligence who wants to stop us being a Christian<br />
or being an effective Christian. (Romans 6:6; Romans 6:11)<br />
(3) Satan has descending orders of authority in the heavens.<br />
(Ephesians 6:12)<br />
3. JESUS HAS SPOILED SATAN’S AUTHORITY<br />
(Colossians 2:15)<br />
Note Daniel 10:13. (cf Singapore Cathedral, Vanuatu, Suva<br />
Cathedral)<br />
4. THE STRONG MEN (Matthew 12:29)<br />
(1) Spirit of Jezebel which works with the spirit of Ahab in men.<br />
(1 Kings 16:29-33)<br />
Isaiah 47:8-10,12; Revelation 2:20-21 False prophets, sexual<br />
immorality. Things offered to idols.<br />
Origin: Disobedience to the commandment not to worship idols.<br />
(Exodus 20:1-5; Deuteronomy 6:5)<br />
(a) She established idolatry (1 Kings 16:30-33; 1 Kings<br />
21:26) Spirit of Jezebel means mother-child religion.<br />
Double-mindedness (James 1:8) schizophrenia. Ahab<br />
was weak-minded (1 Kings 21:4), was the tool of his wife,<br />
Jezebel (1 Kings 21:7&25).<br />
Isaiah 47 - Senility (verse 6), drug abuse (verse 9), occult<br />
worship and witchcraft (verse 9), illicit sexual sins (verse<br />
8), terror (verse 12 - NIV version), astrology (verse 13),<br />
Queen of kingdoms (Revelation 17:1-6; Revelation 17:15).<br />
(b) Fruits of Jezebel: Radical feminism (e.g. worship of<br />
Wicca), homosexuality, the occult.<br />
Sickness (Revelation 2:22-23). Strike her children dead.<br />
Divorce. (Revelation 2:20)<br />
(c) Children of Jezebel Child’s name “Terror”.<br />
Nimrod - Semerimus - Astaroth. Mother-child pattern<br />
- demonic Queen of Heaven, Venus, Diana, Astaroth,<br />
Semerimus, Nimrod.<br />
Masculine characteristics. Example of woman of 50 years<br />
of age who raised her skirts like a child of 5 as the demon<br />
of rebellion manifested.<br />
Spirits under the control of Jezebel<br />
Children (Isaiah 47:8) Addictions, adultery, arrogance, broken<br />
marriages, charms, deception, divination, domination, drugs, fear,<br />
radical feminism, filthiness (of the spirit and the flesh), fornication,<br />
free love, frigidity, hatred, harlotry, heresies, homosexuality, idolatry,<br />
incest and indecency (comes as result of a curse from a previous<br />
generation involved in idolatry), jealousy, lasciviousness, lust, unclean<br />
thoughts, masturbation, occultic things, perverted sexual acts,<br />
oral sex, false religion and heresies (e.g. Mormonism, Jehovah’s<br />
Witnesses, Children of God), pride, sorcery, schizophrenia, spiritism,<br />
spiritual blindness (e.g. Freemasonry, Mormonism); spirit of religion,<br />
witchcraft, ie domination, lying, blasphemy, covetousness, humanism.<br />
The ruling spirit under Jezebel is DECEPTION.<br />
Note: Four downward steps: pride, rebellion, deception,<br />
perversion. (Cut cords into heavenlies)<br />
Note that Jezebel often lurks in the background, waiting to send<br />
its demonic power into a young child, either in the womb or after<br />
birth. The Jezebelic chain has often been established through the<br />
generations and the spirit is a familiar spirit, following the generations,<br />
but waiting for its chance to strike, e.g. at a time of trauma or shock or<br />
anger, rejection etc, it then enters the child and from then on the child<br />
will begin to exhibit Jezebelic tendencies. (Uncover her.)<br />
(2) Anti-Christ (1 John 2:18; 2 Thessalonians 2:3-8)<br />
Groupings of spirits (Galatians 5:20-21; Ephesians 5:4)<br />
Spirits of abortion, anger, bitterness, blasphemy, corrupt<br />
communications, curses, dissension, drunkenness, envy or<br />
hatred, fear, filthy language, frigidity, lack of faith, lying, malice,<br />
murder, nightmares, outbursts of wrath, poverty, rebellion, spirits of<br />
wretchedness, rejection, selfish ambitions, stealing, strife, torment,<br />
unbelief, unforgiveness.<br />
Manifestations: Sleepiness, yawning, various kinds of infirmity that<br />
respond slowly to prayer.<br />
(3) Death and Hell (Revelation 20:13-14)<br />
Spirit of Death and Hell<br />
Groupings of spirits: Curses such as frequent accidents,<br />
succession of deaths in families. Remember to reverse the curse,<br />
“Bless those who curse you, bless and curse not.” (Matthew 5:44)<br />
Sickness, pain, plagues on Christians, breathing problems, guilt,<br />
condemnation (e.g. Luke 13:11 - woman bound by spirit of infirmity).<br />
Results:<br />
(a) Guilt (b) Torment of hell<br />
(c) Prison (d) Physical infirmities<br />
(e) Spirit of stupor (f) Lung difficulties<br />
(g) Fear of death. (h) Sorrow, regrets,<br />
hopelessness, loneliness, darkness, depression and fear.<br />
(4) Unholy Trinity: Cast out Jezebel, then Antichrist, then Death and<br />
Hell. (Revelation 18:7&8; 19:20; 20:14)<br />
(5) Control Spirit: Many people have a control spirit which will deny the<br />
truth. The devil can bring peace as well as turmoil. Control spirits act<br />
to control the person and prevent deliverance.<br />
The function of the control spirit is two-fold:<br />
(a) To shield the human spirit from hurt.<br />
(b) To bring calmness.<br />
This demon frequently comes in during childhood as a result of a<br />
trauma, e.g. one day a child’s father says, “I am going away and will<br />
not come back.” Youngster may well take on the demon which eases<br />
the pain.<br />
5. CASTING OUT OF DEMONS<br />
Jesus always commissioned His disciples to both preach the<br />
gospel and cast out demons.<br />
(Matthew 10:1; Mark 3:14-15; Mark 16:15-18)<br />
6. DESCRIPTION OF DEMONS<br />
Demons are spirits without bodies. Angels have bodies but demons<br />
usually do not. Demons have personalities.<br />
(1) They have a WILL (Matthew 12:44)<br />
(2) They have EMOTIONS (James 2:19)<br />
(3) They have KNOWLEDGE (Mark 1:23,24)<br />
(4) They have SELF-AWARENESS (Mark 5:9)<br />
Many times I have found demons will name themselves, giving<br />
such names as anger, hate, envy, jealousy and fear. Praying<br />
for a woman with long-standing condition in her stomach.<br />
Demon said, “I won’t go, this is my home, I will not leave<br />
her.” Asked the demon its name. It said, “Legion” and then<br />
disappeared and she was healed.<br />
(5) They have a CONSCIENCE too seared to respond<br />
(1 Timothy 4:2)<br />
(6) They have an ABILITY TO SPEAK (Mark 1:24)<br />
Sometimes voice is high-pitched and sometimes screams or<br />
gabbles. Will frequently speak out of people as we are casting<br />
demons out.<br />
7. HOW DEMONS ACT<br />
(1) They ENTICE (James 1:14)<br />
(2) They DECEIVE - e.g. heresies. (Timothy 4:1&2)<br />
(3) They ENSLAVE (Romans 8:15)<br />
e.g. compulsive talking, eating, addictions to alcohol,<br />
smoking, masturbation.<br />
(4) They TORMENT and oppress (2 Timothy 1:7)<br />
Fear, condemnation, doubt.<br />
Many people feel lighter when they have been delivered. They<br />
say, “Something heavy has left me.”<br />
(5) They DRIVE AND COMPEL (Luke 8:29)<br />
e.g. lust, murder assault.<br />
(6) They DEFILE (Titus 1:15) e.g. rock festivals.<br />
(7) Their function is to HARASS.<br />
(8) They often work in groups, e.g. anger,<br />
fear, violence, defiling, rejection etc.<br />
8. DEMONS FIGHT AGAINST OUR PEACE<br />
(1) Against our PERSONAL HARMONY<br />
(2) Against our PEACE OF MIND<br />
(3) Against our PHYSICAL WELL-BEING<br />
(4) They cause disruption with other people,<br />
especially those close to us.<br />
9. THE GREAT DISTINCTIVE MARK IS RESTLESSNESS<br />
Demons drive, compel, torment and harass. Fight against inner<br />
harmony and cause disruption in relationships.<br />
Gifts of discernment of spirits (1 Corinthians 12:10). This is a<br />
thought, vision or impression or the audible voice from the Holy Spirit,<br />
given by God, which makes us realise that wrong spiritual forces can<br />
be effecting a person or even ourselves.<br />
10. HOW THEY OPERATE<br />
(1) From OUTSIDE the body. (2) From WITHIN the body.<br />
If they are outside, we must resist them. (James 4:7)<br />
If they are within the body, we must expel them. (Mark 1:39)<br />
11. THE AREAS IN WHICH THEY AFFECT US<br />
(1) Our emotions, attitudes, relationships, e.g. they cause<br />
resentment, hatred, fear or rebellion. Persistent, compulsive,<br />
bring fear.<br />
(2) The thoughts of the mind, e.g. doubt, unbelief, indecision,<br />
procrastination, compromise.<br />
(3) In the tongue, e.g. lying, cursing, gossip, blasphemy.<br />
Psychiatrists claim that people tell up to 200 lies a day without<br />
knowing it. Spirit of lying can rest on our tongue like a spirit of<br />
unclean talk and blasphemy.<br />
(4) In the sexual area, e.g. perversion, homosexuality and<br />
masturbation.<br />
(5) In addiction - alcohol, nicotine, gluttony, anorexia - food (root is<br />
often frustration).<br />
Following true repentance I place my hand on their nose and<br />
ask them to breathe in and out.<br />
(6) Physical infirmities (Luke 13:12-13)<br />
e.g. tumours, heart attacks, cancer, arthritis, allergies, cramps,<br />
asthma.<br />
12. OTHER AREAS THEY ATTACK<br />
(1) Psychological areas, e.g. if we have recurrent evil and<br />
disruptive emotional attitudes which dominate us against our will,<br />
e.g. resentment, hatred, fear, envy, jealousy, pride.<br />
(2) We have moods which are unreasonable and extreme, e.g.<br />
we can become very talkative or we can change to taciturn<br />
depression.<br />
(3) Physical: There can be unnatural restlessness and<br />
talkativeness. Enslaving habits, e.g. gluttony, alcohol,<br />
nicotine, drugs, sexual immorality, perversion of all kinds,<br />
uncontrollable, unclean thoughts or looks, blasphemy, mockery,<br />
unclean language.<br />
(4) Persistent or violent opposition to the truth of Scripture and<br />
the work of the Holy Spirit.<br />
(5) Unscriptural doctrine or prohibitions, unnatural asceticism,<br />
superstitions observances (e.g. charms, fortune-telling,<br />
astrology, mediums).<br />
Note: One of the foregoing symptoms alone would not necessarily be<br />
conclusive indication of demon present, but where several symptoms<br />
are found together, the probability of demon activity is extremely high.<br />
13. HOW DEMONS ENTER<br />
(1) Through our own sin, e.g. idolatry, rebellion.<br />
(1 Samuel 15:23; Romans 6:6; Galatians 5:16-21))<br />
In Tonga, I prayed for a young homosexual who had a stunted<br />
leg. As he renounced homosexuality, his leg was totally healed.<br />
He was subsequently discipled as a Christian by the Prime<br />
Minister of Tonga.<br />
(2) Through the sin of our ancestors, e.g. idolatry.<br />
(Exodus 20:5)<br />
Examples: Rejection, spirits of grief, spirit of memories.<br />
Effect of hereditary bondages:<br />
I prayed for a boy who was born totally deaf. The word of<br />
knowledge was that it was the result of the mother’s extensive<br />
involvement in fortune telling. She repented and the boy was<br />
healed.<br />
(3) Domination of one person by another, e.g. spirit of Jezebel.<br />
(4) Through our mind - through our thought life - fantasy.<br />
(5) Touching dead bodies. (Numbers 19:11)<br />
(6) Shock (particularly at times of accident)<br />
(7) Grief<br />
(8) Accidents<br />
(9) Marriage breakdowns<br />
(10) Habits, e.g. masturbation, smoking, oral sex, bestiality.<br />
(11) Soul ties<br />
(12) Transference:<br />
(a) Moving with people who are not Christians.<br />
(b) Movies, television, music, magazines.<br />
(c) Alcoholism.<br />
(d) Transference of spirits in a church.<br />
(e) Scattered souls. (Proverbs 6:27)<br />
(f) Sexual intercourse, child molestation.<br />
(g) Satanically inspired music, e.g. some forms of rock<br />
music and dancing. Woman in Cook Islands renounced a<br />
spirit which had entered her while watching certain forms<br />
of dancing with sexual overtones in an island in the South<br />
Pacific. The spirit left her with a tremendous noise and she<br />
was finally set free - spirit of lust had entered through her<br />
eyes. Rock ‘n Roll, back masking, Jonathan Livingston<br />
Seagull<br />
(13) Entry of witchcraft through feet and womb.<br />
(14) Unforgiveness. (Matthew 18:34-35) e.g. man who was healed<br />
of arthritis in his hand in church at Eketahuna.<br />
(15) Rejection. Can occur at conception, in mother’s womb, baby<br />
not bonded, adopted child, hereditary rejection, practices in<br />
the family home, caused by peers, self-rejection. This causes<br />
problems in later life.<br />
(16) Spirits of tradition, pride and prejudice and religion.<br />
Encumbrances of tradition.<br />
Doctrinal obsessions, legalism, personal prejudices.<br />
(17) Occult. (Deuteronomy 18:9-12)<br />
Familiar spirits affecting families.<br />
Influences of witchcraft: Abnormal fears, especially in the<br />
dark, disturbing dreams, hatred of being left alone, spirits of<br />
Antichrist. Testimony of woman healed from bleeding - spirit out<br />
of ear - went to fortune teller at age of 10.<br />
Results of involvement in the occult:<br />
Depression, suicidal thoughts, no desire for prayer and Bible<br />
study, inner resistance to the Word of God, no word of prayer<br />
coming to one’s lips, visions of ghostly forms, fear, blasphemous<br />
thoughts against God and Christ, manic fits, visions of people in<br />
past generations, religious delusions, inability to make decisions,<br />
feelings of anxiety, gripping feeling about the throat, voices that<br />
you cannot get rid of no matter how much you fight, fits of rage,<br />
melancholia, schizophrenia.<br />
(18) Ethnic traditions, culture and environment, e.g. Japanese<br />
ancestor worship, religious spirits.<br />
(19) False religions Teachings which deny John 10:9.<br />
(20) Heresies (1 Timothy 4:1-2) e.g. Jehovah’s Witnesses,<br />
Mormons, Freemasonry. Note curses pamphlet.<br />
(21) Curses: Self-imposed, relational, by witchdoctors etc, by<br />
unscriptural covenants. Example of man who saw father try to<br />
throttle his mother when he was 5. Hated his father. Was told<br />
for years later, “You are just like your father.” This became a<br />
spirit.<br />
(22) Watching people die, especially after nursing them.<br />
(23) Fire-walking, e.g. Fiji and India.<br />
(24) Charms and fetishes in our homes. (Deut. 7:25-26)<br />
(25) Yoga and martial arts Kung Fu, Aikido, Tae Kwon Do, Karate,<br />
Tai Chi, Judo (rooted in Taoism and Buddhism).<br />
(26) Transcendental Meditation, Extra Sensory Perception,<br />
Hypnosis.<br />
(27) Piercing the flesh (Leviticus 19:28, Leviticus 21:5,<br />
Deuteronomy 14:1, 1 Kings 18:28, Mark 5:5)<br />
14. TO BE DELIVERED WE MUST:<br />
(1) Humble ourselves.<br />
(2) Be completely honest.<br />
(3) Confess our sins. (James 5:14-16) Examples of healings in<br />
meetings where people have confessed their sins.<br />
(4) Repent.<br />
(5) Forgive.<br />
(6) Call on the Name of the Lord. Acts 2:21.<br />
15. MANIFESTATIONS<br />
Hissing (tongue goes in and out like a snake’s tongue), spitting,<br />
wriggling, sighing, coughing and gasping (smoking demons),<br />
shouting, lying down as though dead (spirit of coma, hypnosis),<br />
mucus (demons of sexual uncleanness - white foam), animal noises,<br />
yawning, sobbing, roaring (hate demons), screaming, eyes roll<br />
back and flutter - only white part visible - or operate independently,<br />
nostrils flare, lips purse, foul smelling fluids, twisting figures - often<br />
masturbation, blood from mouth, smell like sulphur. Sometimes<br />
nothing. Example of manifestation: Acts 8:7. Housekeeper - dog in<br />
house - boy on church floor barking like a dog at the moon - man<br />
rushing forward on his hands and knees, baring his teeth as he<br />
made his way towards the altar rail in our church during a deliverance<br />
- the spirit of lion has come out on occasions.<br />
16. WHY PEOPLE ARE NOT DELIVERED<br />
(1) They do not repent. Note difference between repentance and<br />
remorse. (Matthew 27:3)<br />
(2) They fail to repent of their sins, especially adultery and<br />
abortion. (James 5:6)<br />
(3) They fail to forgive (Mark 11:25-26)<br />
(4) They fail to break with the occult (Acts 19:19)<br />
(5) They fail to resist the devil (James 4:7)<br />
(6) Failure to repent from pride.<br />
Note: Four downward steps: pride, rebellion, deception,<br />
perversion.<br />
17. COUNSELLING<br />
(1) Listen carefully to what the person says about their problem so<br />
the Holy Spirit can give you guidance.<br />
(2) As you minister in deliverance, work with others.<br />
(3) Take rest periods during deliverance.<br />
(4) The agent of deliverance is the Holy Spirit.<br />

(15) Person must assert will and resist devil. (1 John 4:4)<br />
(16) Use prayer cloth (1 Chronicles 13:14)<br />
(17) Praise God (many times).<br />
19. THE MINISTER:<br />
(1) Remember your authority in Jesus Christ. (Mat. 28:18)<br />
(2) Know the anointing of the Holy Spirit.<br />
(3) Use your prayer language.<br />
(4) Command the person to look at you and tell demons to go.<br />
(5) You should be baptised in the Holy Spirit.<br />
(6) You should use the gifts of discernment of spirits and word of<br />
knowledge as you minister.<br />
(7) We can agree and bind and loose the spirit.<br />
(Matthew 18:18-19)<br />
(8) Allow others in group to bring forward any words of discernment<br />
or knowledge.<br />
(9) Don’t let the candidate use the name of Jesus or speak in<br />
tongues while deliverance is taking place.<br />
(10) Cut cords of Jezebel, Antichrist, Death and Hell and any other<br />
spiritual powers from person’s forehead etc.<br />
(11) Be aware of the children of Jezebel, e.g. child of Terror.<br />
(12) Find master of demon and cast out.<br />

the Word of God. (1 Corinthians 6:9)<br />

(20) Consecrate various parts of the body. (Romans 12:1-2).<br />
(20) Putting water on the person’s forehead as a reminder of their<br />
baptism and cutting off from the power of sin.<br />
(21) Laying on of hands.<br />
Ministering angels surround us.<br />
Hebrews 1:14: “Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to<br />
minister for those who will inherit salvation?”<br />
Note R.E. Group Ministry - always have others present to help you.<br />
Ensure that the groups have pleaded the blood of Jesus before they<br />
commence practising deliverance.<br />
No certificates issued after deliverance.<br />
20. TO KEEP OUR DELIVERANCE WE MUST:<br />
(1) Totally yield to Jesus Christ in every area of our life, making<br />
Him Lord of every area.<br />
(2) Be always filled with the Holy Spirit. (Ephesians 5:18)<br />

(5) Stay with the right people and receive ongoing counsel from<br />
pastor.<br />

(7) Make Jesus the centre of every part of our lives. We must<br />
die daily to our old self and reassert our position daily in Jesus<br />
Christ.<br />

should be told to go away, read the Word, get on their knees<br />
before God, confess their sins and come into true repentance<br />
and be baptised with the Holy Spirit. (Exodus 23:28-33)<br />
21. BINDING DEMONS WHEN THE PERSON IS NOT<br />
PRESENT<br />
(Matthew 18:18-20) Example of person in prayer meeting<br />
causing difficulty. Parents who have prayed for children who have<br />
disappeared - not heard from for a long time. Bound demon power<br />
affecting those children, prayed in belief and been full reconciliation.<br />
22. SELF DELIVERANCE (James 4:7)<br />
Heavy oppression, suffocation, pain or sickness.<br />

Acts 19:19: “Also, many of those who had practiced magic brought<br />
their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they<br />
counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of<br />
silver.”<br />
* Deuteronomy 7:25&26: “You shall burn the carved images of<br />
their gods with fire; you shall not covet the silver or gold that is on<br />
them, nor take it for yourselves, lest you be snared by it; for it is an<br />
abomination to the Lord your God.<br />
Nor shall you bring an abomination into your house, lest you be<br />
doomed to destruction like it; but you shall utterly detest it and utterly<br />
abhor it, for it is an accursed thing.”<br />

How to Break Curses<br />
These notes may be reproduced except for commercial purposes.<br />
(To be used together with pamphlet "Deliverance from Demons")<br />
Primary reason for curses:<br />
(a) Not hearing God's voice<br />
(b) Not doing what He says<br />
There are seven blessings and seven curses referred to in the law in Scripture.<br />
Seven blessings: (Deuteronomy 28)<br />
(1) Exaltation<br />
(2) Reproductiveness<br />
(3) Health<br />
(4) Prosperity, success<br />
(5) Victory<br />
(6) That we are the head and not the tail<br />
(7) That we will be above and not beneath<br />
There are seven curses referred to in the same chapter:<br />
(1) Humiliation<br />
(2) Barrenness<br />
(3) Sickness of every kind<br />
(4) Poverty, failure<br />
(5) Defeat<br />
(6) We will be the tail and not the head<br />
(7) We will be below and not above<br />
Indications of Curses:<br />
(1) Mental, emotional breakdown<br />
(2) Repeated sickness, especially hereditary sickness - doctors can't find the cause<br />
(3) Feminine problems - barrenness, miscarriage, menstruation problems<br />
(4) Breakdown of marriage - family alienation<br />
(5) Financial insufficiency, poverty. Sometimes poverty for a short period is just a test<br />
but if we are always in poverty it could be a curse.<br />
(6) Accident prone<br />
(7) History of unnatural deaths<br />
A curse can be something like an evil thing moving up from the past. It is like a deep<br />
shadow.<br />
Note: Proverbs 26:2. A curse is:<br />
"Like a flitting sparrow, like a flying swallow,<br />
So a curse without cause shall not alight."<br />
Therefore, a curse requires a cause to alight.<br />
REASONS FOR CURSES:<br />
(1) Having false gods (Exodus 20:3&4, Deuteronomy 27:15)<br />
(2) Disrespect for parents (Deuteronomy 27:16)<br />
(3) Treachery against a neighbour (Deuteronomy 27:17)<br />
(4) Injustice to the weak (Deuteronomy 27:18&19)<br />
(5) Illicit sex (Deuteronomy 27:20-23)<br />
(Effect of wrong sexual relationships, particularly those outside of marriage or with<br />
members of one's family)<br />
(6) Perjury (Deuteronomy 27:25)<br />
(7) Stealing (Zechariah 5:1-4)<br />
(8) Stinginess towards God (Malachi 3:9)<br />
(9) Perverting gospel (Galatians 1:8&9)<br />
(10) Depending on the flesh (Jeremiah 17:5)<br />
(11) Anti-Semitism (Genesis 12:3, Genesis 28:3&14)<br />
SOURCE OF CURSES:<br />
1. God Himself God blesses and curses (Exodus 20:3&5) Breaking the first two<br />
commandments:<br />
(a) To have no other Gods<br />
(b) Idolatry<br />
Our God is a jealous God<br />
2. All occult practices Making occultism your God, eg a fortune teller. It is the power<br />
behind the fortune teller that matters. In four generations we can have upwards of 30<br />
ancestors.<br />
3. Men who speak on behalf of God<br />
(a) Joshua 6:26, ie Joshua said, "Cursed be the man before the Lord who rises up and<br />
builds the city Jericho, he shall lay its foundation with his firstborn, and with his<br />
youngest he shall set up its gates." This was fulfilled in 1 Kings 16:34 nearly 500 years<br />
later when Hiel of Bethel built Jericho, he laid its foundation with Abriam, his first born,<br />
and with his youngest son Segub he set up its gates according to the Word of the Lord<br />
which he had spoken through Joshua the son of Nun. Thus curses are self-perpetuating.<br />
(b) 2 Samuel 1:21 Statement by David:<br />
"Oh mountains of Gilboa,<br />
Let there be no dew, nor let there be rain upon you,<br />
Nor fields of offerings.<br />
For the shield of the mighty is cast away there!"<br />
These were the fields of Gilboa upon which Saul and Jonathan had died and David was<br />
cursing them. Nearly 3,000 years later this same curse was upon this land and the Jewish<br />
people had great difficulty a few years ago in trying to get trees to grow on it.<br />
(c) 2 Kings 5 (Naaman) verse 27, cursed his servant with leprosy forever.<br />
4. God's servants can do this today eg Jesus cursed the fig tree and said, "You can do<br />
this also."<br />
5. Persons with relational authority eg husband over wife, parents over children.<br />
Words spoken have supernatural powers. The blessing of the father is important.<br />
(a) Genesis 31 - Jacob and Rachel: Rachel had stolen her father's gods. Jacob did not<br />
know this and he said to her father, Laban: "`With whomever you find your gods, do not<br />
let him live. In the presence of our brethren, identify what I have of yours and take it with<br />
you.' For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them." (Genesis 31:32) ie, he was in<br />
effect saying that she should die, although, of course, he did not know she had stolen<br />
them and that she would feign sickness to avoid being discovered. She later died in<br />
childbirth.<br />
(b) Examples where husband curses his wife or parents curse their children, eg a husband<br />
says to his wife, "You cannot cook", or the following statements are made in respect of<br />
other people including children:<br />
"You are no good"<br />
"You are useless"<br />
"You are a failure"<br />
"You will never be any good"<br />
"You are hopeless"<br />
"You will never achieve anything"<br />
"You are ugly"<br />
"You are a bad person"<br />
"You are always a liar"<br />
"It's in the family and you are sure to get it" etc etc.<br />
6. Self-imposed curses which become like inner vows. Examples:<br />
"I'll never be any good"<br />
"I'll never forgive myself"<br />
"God doesn't love me"<br />
"I'll never speak to ..... again"<br />
"I hate myself"<br />
"No-one loves me"<br />
"I want to die, I'm better off dead"<br />
Examples from Scripture:<br />
(a) Genesis 27:13 Rebekah said:<br />
"Let your curse be on me"<br />
and in verse 46 she said:<br />
"I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth;<br />
...what good will my life be to me?"<br />
She brought a curse on herself.<br />
(b) Matthew 27:24&25, the Jews said, "Let His blood be on us and our descendants".<br />
(c) Peter denied the Lord three times<br />
7. Curses brought on by unscriptural covenants:<br />
Exodus 23:32: "You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods." We are to<br />
make no covenant with those who are not committed as Christians. Freemasonry is an<br />
example of that with self-imposed curses, eg the 32nd degree<br />
2 Corinthians 6:14-17: "Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what<br />
fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with<br />
darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an<br />
unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the<br />
temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them and walk among them. I<br />
will be their God, and they shall be My people." Therefore "Come out from among them<br />
and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you."<br />
8. Curses put on by the servants of Satan eg witch doctors, medicine men, tohungas<br />
etc.<br />
Example: Numbers 22:4&6. Note this was a request by Moab to Balam to pronounce<br />
curses on Israel. It was a matter of their gods versus the true God. When people fought<br />
one another in the old days, they regarded it as a fight between their gods and the other<br />
gods, eg David and Goliath.<br />
1 Samuel 17:43: " So the Philistine said to David, "Am I a dog, that you come to me with<br />
sticks?" And the Philistine cursed David by his gods."<br />
Other reasons for curses:<br />
1. Objects in homes (Deuteronomy 7:26) We are to have no abominable thing our home.<br />
This can cause children to be disturbed.<br />
2. Soul ties These are soul ties which are contrary to God's purposes. Eg, in adultery,<br />
fornication (especially past sexual relationships). Ungodly soul ties can bring spiritual<br />
sickness. 1 Corinthians 6:18: "Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is<br />
outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body."<br />
Examples of wrongful sex are as follows:<br />
Pre-marital sex Perverted sex<br />
Trial marriages Homosexuality<br />
Lesbianism Pornography and fantasy<br />
Bestiality Transvestism<br />
Sexual abuse<br />
Consequences:<br />
(a) Establishment of soul ties and bondings in the flesh other than with God's intended<br />
partner.<br />
(b) Guilt and condemnation.<br />
(c) Demonisation<br />
(d) Emotional disturbance<br />
What is sexual abuse?<br />
Uninvited caressing<br />
Uninvited handling of the sexual areas<br />
Anal handling<br />
Masturbation in front of a person<br />
Forced oral sex<br />
Forced mutual masturbation<br />
Forced intercourse and rape<br />
Bestiality<br />
Ritualistic sex<br />
Incest<br />
All of these cause fear, confusion, deception.<br />
Long term problems:<br />
(a) Confusion of one's identity, sexuality, physical position and emotional situation.<br />
(b) Causes regression and repression of memories. Causes fantasy.<br />
(c) Breaking of trust.<br />
(d) Causes rebellion including (i) self rejection (ii) fear of rejection and (iii) anger.<br />
(e) Causes guilt and fear.<br />
(f) Causes inability to respond to love.<br />
(g) Causes desire to die.<br />
(h) Causes physical illness.<br />
(i) Causes damage to the spirit.<br />
Also domination by one person over another, eg where a father dominates or sexually<br />
abuses his daughter.<br />
HOW TO BE RELEASED FROM THE CURSE:<br />
1. We must recognise that there is a curse.<br />
2. We must repent from all sin.<br />
3. We must renounce in the name of Jesus Christ.<br />
4. We must resist, eg James 4:7: "Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will<br />
flee from you."<br />
5. Use the Word of God. The Word of God is powerful and such Scriptures as the<br />
following can be used:<br />
Psalm 118:17:<br />
"I shall not die, but live,<br />
And declare the works of the LORD."<br />
We must realise that where there is a negative there should also be a positive. We recall<br />
that Peter denied the Lord three times but three times Jesus asked him, "Do you love<br />
me?" Peter had to revoke his earlier statement three times.<br />
Where curses have arisen from the servants of Satan, we must recognise Luke 10:19:<br />
"Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the<br />
power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you."<br />
SUMMARY<br />
1. Confess our faith in Jesus Christ.<br />
2. Commit ourselves to be obedient to God and to hear and do what He says.<br />
3. Confess any known sins on our own part or of our ancestors.<br />
4. Forgive others.<br />
5. Renounce the occult on our own part or on the part of our ancestors.<br />
6. Renounce all contact with heathen objects.<br />
CONTINUING WITH THE LORD<br />
1. Pray the Holy Spirit will fill every area of the person's life.<br />
2. Give as much love and encouragement as is necessary and the person can receive.<br />
3. Assure the person that where deliverance has taken place, they need not fear the enemy<br />
if they walk properly with God.<br />
4. Encourage the person:<br />
(a) To be continuously filled with the Holy Spirit.<br />
(b) Read the Word of God daily.<br />
(c) Wear the armour of God at all times.<br />
(d) Be on their guard against the enemy's counter attacks.<br />

the riches of His grace."<br />
THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS I AM REDEEMED OUT OF THE HAND OF<br />
THE DEVIL. THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS ALL MY SINS ARE FORGIVEN.<br />
1 John 1:7:<br />
"But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another,<br />
and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin."<br />

CONTINUALLY FROM ALL SIN.<br />
Romans 5:9:<br />
"Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath<br />
through Him."<br />
THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS I AM JUSTIFIED, MADE RIGHTEOUS, JUST<br />
AS THOUGH I HAD NEVER SINNED.<br />
Hebrews 13:12:<br />

outside the gate."<br />

between myself and ................... (name the individual). In the name of Jesus Christ, I<br />
specifically speak to every demonic power that has taken advantage of that link and I tell<br />
it that it has no rights here and it must leave now without going into any other member of<br />
my family. Thank you Lord Jesus that through Your shed blood and through Your<br />
wonderful name, I am able to be absolutely free. Thank you Lord."<br />

the attacks of the enemy. I specifically renounce the following sexual sin .......... I confess<br />
I have been wrong. I renounce all pleasure connected with these sins. I now turn from my<br />
sin. I ask You, Father, to forgive me all that is past and give me discernment when the<br />
temptation arises and the strength to resist it. I ask You to heal my memories and to heal<br />
the hurts and forgive me in Jesus name.<br />
I also specifically renounce any other sins such as rejection, unforgiveness. I especially<br />

upon You, Lord Jesus, to set me free from every demonic power that has affected me.<br />
Lord, I now renounce Satan and all his works. I hate his demons. I count them my<br />
enemies in the name of Jesus. I loose myself from every dark spirit, from every evil<br />
influence, from every satanic bondage, from any spirit in me that is not the Spirit of God.<br />

lived within me or oppressed me to leave me now in the name of Jesus Christ. I declare<br />

CURSES<br />
Deuteronomy 28:15-68<br />
It is clear from this chapter that if we obey the commandments of God (the Ten<br />
Commandments - Exodus 20:1-17) we will be blessed. If we disobey them, then we come<br />
under the curses of God. In this chapter there are 118 curses referred to including great<br />
and prolonged sicknesses, madness, blindness, and confusion of heart (mental<br />
breakdown). They are set out below.<br />
Of course we are not saved by obeying the law but through the Cross of Jesus Christ,<br />
repenting and believing in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour and obeying His<br />
commandments.<br />
When we do this we are delivered from the curses of the law.<br />
One of the commandments of the law is to honour our parents that our days may be long<br />
and we may live long on the earth. (Exodus 20:12)<br />
Another commandment is that we are not to make for ourselves any carved image, or any<br />
likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in<br />
the water under the earth; nor are we to bow down to them nor serve them. For the LORD<br />
is a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth<br />
generations of those who hate Him. (Exodus 20:4-5)<br />
Many of us have had parents or ancestors who have been involved in the occult.<br />
Sometimes we ourselves have been involved and accordingly these curses can come upon<br />
us unless we repent.<br />
In Galatians 3:13 we are told that at the Cross we have been delivered from the curses of<br />
the law and in Galatians 3:14 we are told that we come into the blessing of Abraham<br />
whom God blessed in all things.<br />
"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is<br />
written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree"), that the blessing of Abraham might<br />
come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit<br />
through faith."<br />
We strongly recommend that you examine your feelings towards your parents (alive or<br />
dead) and if there is any unforgiveness or failure to honour them you should immediately<br />
repent, acknowledge Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and renounce the sins of your<br />
parents and ancestors in the name of Jesus Christ. You will then be delivered from the<br />
curses of the law and this deliverance will remain as you stay obedient to God.<br />
Even if your father has done terrible things to you, with the help of the Holy Spirit you<br />
can forgive him. If you do not forgive him, then you will still remain under the curses of<br />
the law. Jesus Christ has given us the power to forgive through the help of the Holy<br />
Spirit. (John 20:21)<br />
"So Jesus said to them again, "Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you."<br />
And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy<br />
Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any,<br />
they are retained."<br />
We find that many people who have been adopted at birth have major difficulties as they<br />
grow older because they have never honoured their natural mother and father and<br />
renounced their sins.<br />
In all cases we recommend the following prayer, said with a believing heart.<br />
"Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. I honour my<br />
mother and father. I absolutely forgive them for any hurts real or imagined. I now<br />
renounce their sins and the sins of my ancestors in the name of Jesus Christ and I believe<br />
I am delivered from the curse of the law through the Cross of Jesus Christ. Thank You<br />
Father, in Jesus' name. Amen."<br />
If this prayer is said with utter sincerity and belief in every way, then this will cut the<br />
cords of the past and the curse will be reversed and healing will flow.<br />
PRAYER OF RELEASE FOR MASONS AND THEIR<br />
DESCENDANTS<br />
If you or someone you love is a descendant of a Mason, I recommend that you pray<br />
through the following prayers from your heart. Don't be like the Masons - please read it<br />
through first so you know what is involved. It is best to pray aloud with a Christian<br />
witness or counsellor present.<br />
"Father God, creator of heaven and earth, I come to You in the name of Jesus<br />
Christ Your Son. I come as a sinner seeking forgiveness and cleansing from all sins<br />
committed against You, and others made in Your image. I honour my earthly father<br />
and mother and all of my ancestors of flesh and blood, and of the spirit by adoption<br />
and god-parents, but I utterly turn away from and renounce all their sins. I forgive<br />
my ancestors for the effects of their sins on me and my children. I confess and<br />
renounce all of my own sins. I renounce and rebuke Satan and every spiritual power<br />

especially the fears of death, fears of men, and fears of trusting, in the name of Jesus<br />
Christ.<br />
I renounce every position held in the lodge by any of my ancestors, including<br />
"Tyler", "Master", "Worshipful Master" or any other. I renounce the calling of<br />
any man "Master", for Jesus Christ is my only master and Lord, and He forbids<br />
anyone else having that title. I renounce the entrapping of others into Masonry, and<br />

these sins have been. I ask You, Lord, to baptise me in your Holy Spirit now<br />
according to the promises in Your Word. I take to myself the whole armour of God<br />
in accordance with Ephesians chapter six, and rejoice in its protection as Jesus<br />
surrounds me and fills me with His Holy Spirit. I enthrone You, Lord Jesus, in my<br />
heart, for You are my Lord and my Saviour, the source of eternal life. Thank You,<br />
Father God, for Your mercy, your forgiveness and Your love, in the name of Jesus<br />
Christ. Amen." *<br />

ZIMBABWE<br />
<br />
Zimbabwe needs prayer to break the evil strong hold<br />
God has given me the ability to see in the spirit realm<br />
Both in deliverance and also over countries<br />
As my Wife and I have prayed for Zimbabwe her homeland<br />
The Lord showed me Mugabe then as we prayed over the months I began to see the witch doctors standing behind him and the Lord said they keep him in power<br />
My wife was Geraldine Ushewokunze her father was Herbert Ushewokunze he was a minister in the first Mugabe Government he was a doctor and in charge of that along with other portfolios he was also minister in charge of witchdoctors<br />
So I knew this was confirming what Geraldine had told me<br />
I then began to see a huge black thing behind them all. I knew this would be the prince behind it all so over the weeks I prayed and asked the Lord to show what who how this thing kept power<br />
Then one morning at family prayer the vision opened to me<br />
I was face to face with this huge massive dragon it was in the river it was so fat on all the souls it had destroyed<br />
I believe this giant needs to be taken down each part of it represents a part of the bondage<br />
Mugabe watches all eyes and listens to all so he knows all who would seek to bring him ????<br />
It had huge steel claws gripping into the sides of the river<br />
The scales will be representing strong holds too<br />
Geraldine believes it to be nyaminyami the river god this thing causes all the erotic dancing and is behind the sexual sin also the cholera is in the water oh he’s also know as the water god and water spirits are worshipped there<br />
I have been wondering if this thing run the length of Africa and the tail in that other troubled region only thoughts since I only saw the head in Zimbabwe<br />
This thing is behind all the sexual sin so it must be driving the HIV /aids epidemic as with the cholera<br />
I believe praying this down is for the body of Christ to take on<br />
Tell me what you think believe and lets unite together<br />

Proverbs 29 v18 declares without a vision the people perish the NIV states without a revelation we will perish my interpretation.<br />
Revelation = who are we in Christ What does Gods word say.<br />
Coming from a family steeped in generational abuse revelation had to come into my life from God to set me free.<br />
My vision of me was a weak feeble person I constantly sought to manipulate others into fighting those I considered I was too weak to deal with to drag others into my battles. In reality I can do all things through Christ the anointed one and his anointing. TRUTH<br />
The world tells us to continually go to counseling to feel better. But if we continually focus on the abuse done to us that is our vision and so we fulfill the vision and continue to abuse and be abused and to go in circles in life and make the councilors busy.<br />
On my Dads side of the family they came from France originally and in the reformation the French Catholics came and took all their land and did terrible things and they fled for their lives. But as each generation has passed these things down and they went into witchcraft to get even so abuse has reigned in the family vision wrong sowing and reaping lost generations.<br />
My mums side was similar wealthy jewelers they were robbed of the lot didn’t forgive went to a local coven cursed those who did it and ever since ritual abuse reigned == vision wrong sowing and reaping lost generations<br />
If we were abused by a woman unless we come to a point of forgiving we see every woman through tainted glasses. If a man abused us in our life we will see all men the same.<br />
If our ancestors were abused, taken advantage of and we focus continually on that abuse then abuse will manifest itself in our homes and keep us in bondage. In Mathew 18 v21 we read of the unmerciful servant who asked God to forgive him and then went out and got stuck into his fellow servant --- He was handed over to the tormentors every time we say the Lords prayer and ask to forgive us and then hold bitterness against our fellow man we hand ourselves over to the tormentors. It might not seem fair to us but that’s the way it works with God<br />
The church is full of people who have a wrong vision. The church is full of offense those who have been offended vision offense unforgiveness and they in turn go on to cause offense to many.<br />
What our vision is “we become” its simple if we fail to forgive those who have hurt us in anyway and we hold onto that hurt we become exactly like the one or one’s that have hurt us.<br />
When we first begin a process of healing its normal to spend time in tears. For years it was impossible for me to cry but one day the dam broke. In psalm 30 v5 we read weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning yippee it comes when we follow the directions in the manufacturer’s handbook the bible.<br />
Later on in psalm 30 v 11 states YOU that’s God turned my mourning into dancing I mourned for years over my lost robbed childhood but he has turned my mourning into dancing now.<br />
In I Corinthians 6 =9 Gods word says and such were some of you they had been all sorts of things even abusers and gay but he states there now ye are washed clean sanctified justified in Christ.<br />
Paul the apostle here is telling them who they are in God –VISION! They weren’t those other things anymore. We may still be weak in those areas and need to confess with our mouths each day that God says we are not what the devil says we are.<br />
In Philippians 4 v 8 we are told to think on “VISION” whatever is true noble pure lovely admirable excellent praiseworthy and the peace of God will be with us. In Colossians we read we are seated in heavenly places in Christ far above all principalities but to be in that place live it we must be clean<br />
We will have days when its hard to stay focused we may slip we all do but we come back confess our sin and keep on declaring out load who God says we are
