God Hears The Prayers Of The Righteous

The LORD is far from the wicked: but he hears the prayer of the righteous." Proverbs 15:29.

The Book of Proverbs provides numerous promises and benefits for the righteous. The above scripture is just one of them. Many of us were raised in a religious structure where we seldom read our Bibles. And even when we did manage to read them, it was solely to claim that we had read them without actually considering the message they were conveying to us.

From my experience, pondering and slowly digesting scripture can challenge the human spirit and mind. The righteous are those who believe in and accept the God of the Bible and understand that applying the scriptures will bring about the change they seek in their lives. These are the same scriptures that Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, and other righteous figures in the Bible followed. 

The scripture mentioned above can be a great source of comfort for those going through tough times. It reveals that the same God who created and oversees everything, with a plan for all things, has also provided this scripture to assure the righteous that despite being involved in everything, He never stops listening to their prayers.

"My friend, please trust me when I say that I understand what you're going through. It's common to feel like your prayers are going unheard or that God has forgotten or ignored you. I've been there too, and the enemy's voice can be so loud in our heads, telling us that we're wasting our time praying, that God isn't listening, or that we must have sinned and are being punished. But those thoughts are not necessarily true, and my experience has shown me that consistency in prayer will make a difference."

According to the scripture, "The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous." This statement implies two things: firstly, God does not support those who are wicked and working against us, and secondly, even if it seems like our prayers are unheard, we can always be sure that God is listening to the prayers of the righteous.

To the person reading this post this morning who is not righteous, why not do what is necessary to become righteous so that you would be assured that your prayers are being heard according to the scripture? Just believe, accept, and confess the Lord Jesus Christ from your heart, and you will be given your spiritual robe of righteousness and its endless benefits.

Righteous people continue to pray for the unrighteous so that the God who promises to hear the prayers of the righteous will answer our prayers concerning the salvation of the unrighteous.

Spiritual Limitations and restrictions will be lifted in 2015

It is my genuine prayer today, that the God of all revelation in the name of his son Jesus Christ will
reveal and expose to you via his spirit everyone and anything that Satan has assigned in this year 2015 to overtly or covertly WASTE YOUR TIME!

Everyone with the assignment to delay you from connecting with what God has put in place to advance you, I come in agreement with you that their devices and counsel against you become utter foolishness and never reach manifestation in the name of Jesus Christ!

Every evil counsel, every evil voice along with all demonic altars speaking and devising consistent evil against your God ordain destiny, let those voices be silenced and destroyed by the eternal fire of the living God!

Every spiritual stumbling block that has hindered your spiritual  progress with the end result of causing you not to produce and progress physically, I speak and command spiritual cages to imprison those spiritual stumbling blocks so that your assigned blessings will flow without delay to you in 2015!

I speak specifically to the spirit of barrenness, that has caused you not to produce what God has called you to produce, we command this spirit to become barren in the name of Jesus Christ!

Every spirit husband and spirit wife that has either caused you to connect with the wrong mate, marry the wrong person or has delay you from being married, it is my prayer that God will send spiritual fire and brimstone, like he did physical fire and brimstone in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah and destroy every calculating and deceitful spirit that has pulled you off course in connecting with whom you were suppose to be connect with.

Let every Devil sitting on your destiny, sitting on your potential, sitting on your favor, sitting on your opportunities, sitting on your LIFE! Be consumed by the fire of God right now in the name of Jesus Christ!

I decree and declare by the authority of God that this year, 2015! Will be like no other year for you because the restrictions and limitations have been lifted spiritually so that you can flow in the assigned blessings of God physically. God will restore you seven fold of everything that the enemy has stolen from you, let Proverbs 6:31 be your promise from God as it relates to your restoration in 2015, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!!!!!

"I AM AGREEING WITH YOU MY FRIEND THAT GOD WILL DO WHAT HE SAID HE WILL DO FOR YOU IN 2015"

Understanding the Spiritual Implications Behind Demonic Altars

In the world of witchcraft, covenants are made at demonic altars. Demonic altars are special covert
places erected by witches and warlocks to summons demonic entities to do their bidding, but more importantly to covertly covenant that person and by extension their family to that demonic altar.

The power of a demonic altar is created via the spilling of blood at that altar. It will always be the blood sacrifice performed on that altar that will summons evil spirits to oppress others spiritually. Unfortunately, from a Christian perspective, very few Christians understand the spiritual implications of an altar. In fact, if you were to ask them what is the significance of an altar, they would probably say, an altar is a place where one prays! While this may be true to a certain extent altar carry a far great spiritual implication in the realm of the spirit.

Many of you reading this post right now, have zero idea that you maybe spiritually in covenant to a demonic altar. Unknowing to you, you were spiritually tied to a demonic family altar when your fore-parents or some family member or even yourself decided to make the foolish mistake of participating in the works of witchcraft. What your family member or fore-parents or yourself did not know was that the day you made the decision to participate in the world of witchcraft an evil covenant was simultaneously forged unknowingly to the participants that spiritually tied themselves and their family members not only to that demonic altar but also to a life of oppression and strange negative circumstances.

Let me provide some biblical proof to unveil the mystery of demonic altars. Scripture says to us in Judges 6, that the children of Israel were under serious oppression for seven years by their enemies the Midianites. At this point, the nation of Israel could not understand why or what was the reason for their oppression and why would God allow them to be oppressed in the promise land that he gave them. Scripture goes on to say that they cried out to God. God, in turn, sent an Angel who later instructed Gideon to pay a visit to his Father's house which would reveal to Gideon the root or source as to why they were being afflicted and for so many years.

The bible says that when Gideon arrived at his Father's house, unknowing to the children of Israel, Gideon's father had a demonic altar set up in his home it was an altar of Baal. It was because of this altar that Gideon's father had erected secretly in his home making sacrifices unto demonic deities and as a result, the entire nation of Israel was cursed as a result of the evil that ONE MAN WAS DOING!

I have met with many people who have asked me to pray with them, pray for them, fast with them, etc and as a result, absolutely nothing happened. However, we would have discovered later that absolutely nothing happened even though we fasted and prayed, simply because that person was initiated and was in covenant with a family demonic altar, unknowing to them of course. That's right! You see my friend covenants are respected by God and before God can do anything for you that evil covenant MUST BE BROKEN! In Gideon's case, it was only when Gideon destroyed his father's altar and erected an altar unto God and began to make Godly sacrifices unto God, then and only then the spiritual order changed as a result of the destruction of the altar, that paved the way for Gideon and the children of Israel to begin to progress and subdue their enemies physically.

It is this kind of spiritual activity that is in place that is causing some group, family, organization, or individual to not physically advance in life. As long as we continue to subscribe to ignorance or only rely on what some preacher is saying to us and not searching the scriptures for ourselves, then were prune for failure and defeat in the future.

I can literally write volumes of books in regards to this mystery. This understanding is basically a foreign language to the average church simply because they DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE POWER AND SPIRITUAL COVENANTS OF ALTARS!

Let me say to you right now, if you have been a Christian for any number of years and you have been paying your tithes and making other financial contributions but yet you still find yourself broke or continuing to struggle, then chances are you are spiritually tied to a family altar. This is how it works, whatever it is that the witchcraft practitioner asked you to bring to the altar to sacrifice and monies were exchanges to "pay the spirits to do your bidding", well unknowing to you or whoever has participated in this evil has covenant with that altar unknowingly and as a result everyone in that family will have a money problem until the covenant with that altar has been destroyed. It is the same if a family member or yourself visited the witch doctor to have the witch doctor bring about separation in someone's marriage or relationship so that you can be with that person, well my friend that altar now controls the destiny of all relationships in that family simply because a covenant was covertly established between the person who desires the evil to be done and the altar.

Therefore, it is vital for me in my Ministry to ask questions that may seem irrelevant to the one seeking help but to myself, I am always in search of the spiritual root that has that person going backward in life. In 7 out of 10 cases, it is discovered that either that person, their parents, grandparents, husband, wife, or some family member were or currently is involved with witchcraft and as a result of that person unknowingly was spiritually tied to the altar. I know many of you are reading such information for the first time and I am sure this same mystery has been the source of your relentless issues. You must ask God to not only reveal to you if the source of your problems are as a result of altars in your life that you are or may not be aware of but more importantly you must ask God to destroy the spiritual covenants that have held you to that particular demonic altar. Please note! Whoever is in covenant with that demonic altar, knowingly or unknowingly, is ultimately controlled by that altar.

There is so much more I would like to release concerning demonic altars, but I will end here for now and will continue tomorrow in a series of writings on "Understanding the spiritual implications of demonic altars".

Make sure you do a spiritual and physical cleansing prior to 2015

While December is known for a month of celebrating the Christmas holidays. Personally, I find it an excellent month to consider doing a fast.

When we look back at the events that have happened throughout this year, especially considering the stress, difficulties, deaths, etc. I find December as a month we should detoxify our spirits and bodies via fasting.

Having done several fast myself, with the most lengthy one being 40 days consuming water and natural juices only, the benefits are quite rewarding, particularly with the bonus of being realigned spiritually and mentally with a sharper sense of purpose.

Fasting is the act of abstaining from particular or all food, drink, or both, for a while. There are two types of fasting, 1) Absolute: fast: an absolute fast is defined as abstinence from all food and liquid for a specified period. Then there is 2) A partial fast: A partial fast is where one would eat certain foods and drinks for a defined period. In most cases, a partial fast would be limited to just fruits or vegetables and water only or water and natural juices.

According to the book of Isaiah, it is said that a genuine fast will loose the bands of wickedness, undo the heavy burdens, let the oppressed go free, and break every yoke, Isaiah 58:6.

 Amazingly, in verse 8 of this same chapter, the prophet Isaiah said, "Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.

Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity" Isaiah 58:8-9.

The statement, "thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily," simply means that your understanding, wisdom, knowledge, and discernment will spiritually and physically be realigned. It will be sharpened with better clarity and your health restored.

Now, please bear in mind lest we become confused; Isaiah is speaking to the people of God in this text, which we know to be the children of Israel. I am attempting to point out this very much overlooked point simply because most folks are misguided into believing that Believers of Jesus Christ can not be burdened, oppressed, or spiritually challenged. In fact, when others see Christians challenged, it is assumed that there may be unconfessed sin in their lives. They're likely in desperate need of a fast to realign and reinforce their spiritual power and authority.

Just consider it for a moment. Everything in life needs some type of rejuvenation or maintenance to maintain optimum performance. Therefore, the human spirit and the body are no different.

I am seriously encouraging you to attempt some type of fasting before you enter the new year as spiritual and physical detoxification from this year's events and be fully prepared spiritually and physically for the coming events of next year.

Can Fasting Be Used For Good And Evil

During our last teaching on fasting, we basically covered the overall aspect of fasting
and its benefits.

Today, I want to emphasize that fasting is a spiritual principle and a spiritual protocol to request answers and divine reinforcement from the spirit realm.

Firstly, fasting is a spiritual principle whose purpose is not just to rejuvenate or restore the one fasting spiritually. Still, more importantly, it is the means of summoning the spirit realm for either assistance or answers to certain perplexing earthly or even spiritual matters. For example, whenever the nation of Israel was being challenged by war with their enemies, for the most part, the entire country would join in on a fast to see what was God's position before their involvement in whomever that war would be with, 2 Chronicles 20:3.

In another case, when Israel was being oppressed and pillaged by their enemies, and they were totally confused as to why it was all happening, they fasted in an attempt to seek God's answer to their perplexing problems, Ezra 8:23.

Amazingly, many folks are unaware that because fasting is a spiritual principle, the act of fasting is not limited to Godly things. Consequently, fasting can also summon demonic/evil assistance and knowledge. Of course, most Christians just associate fasting with things of God. However, the book of 1 Kings 21:7-13 says, " And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? Arise, eat bread, and let thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.

8 So she wrote letters in Ahab's name, sealed them with his seal, and sent them to the elders and the nobles in his city dwelling with Naboth.

9 And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:

10 And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.

11 And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them, and as it was written in the letters she had sent unto them.

12 They proclaimed a fast and set Naboth on high among the people.

13 And there came in two men, children of Belial, and sat before him: and the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city and stoned him with stones, that he died.

After reading this passage of scripture, we must ask ourselves, who was the nation of Israel fasting to? The entire fast was based on lies; Jezebel sent two men as witnesses against Naboth, who apparently lied to him. How is it that the Elders and nobles of the city could not discern that this fast was not of God? Finally, how is it that in every case where Israel fasted, the result of the fast would be that God would send a prophet to declare what would be a consequence of the fast? However, in this case, no prophets were involved, and no answers from God as to what Naboth's end result should be. In fact, it appears as if they went through a political procedure to officially execute Naboth that was fueled by demonic fasting.

This evil fast, of course, allowed them to be advised and controlled by Satan. However, for the most part, just like many of us today, when we hear the term fasting, we think it is automatically Godly. I have read many books of pastors who were once witch Doctors or witchcraft workers and via their own confession. At the same time, they were a part of the occult; they would go on arduous fasting to summon the help of more extraordinary demonic powers to do their evil bidding.

I will take it a step further. As you may recall, the Prophet Isaiah was confronted by the children of Israel concerning a particular fact that they had done, but nothing panned out for them after the fact. Here is what the Prophet Isaiah, as an oracle of God, said to the children of Israel:

"Why have we fasted, they say, and You do not see it? Why have we afflicted ourselves, and You take no knowledge [of it]? Behold [O Israel] on the day of your fast [when you should be grieving for your sins]. You find profit in your business, and [instead of stopping all work, as the law implies you and your workmen should do], you extort a total amount of labor from your hired servants.

4 [The facts are that] you fast only for strife and debate and to smite with the fist of wickedness. Fasting as you do today will not cause your voice to be heard on high.

5 Is such a fast as yours what I have chosen, a day for a man to humble himself with sorrow in his soul? [Is true fasting merely mechanical?] Is it only to bow down his head like a bulrush and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him [to indicate a condition of the heart that he does not have]? Will you call this a fast and an acceptable day to the Lord?" Isaiah 58:3-5 Amplified version.

Question! Could someone be making evil fasting against you and, as a result, blocking or hindering your future blessings?

The exact protocols to fasting

The word "then" is a great indicator regarding pointing to something that's going to happen next. It is also a term that refers to something being added, for example, "I love my job, but then it pays well also."

In today's teaching on fasting, we will explore this word in regards to fasting to reveal that when we participate correctly in fasting, it will be "THEN" that things will begin to happen or change for us.

Scripture admonishes us that during our times of fasting, the things that we took pleasure and comfort in before fastings, such as our food, home, and other comforts, we must now distribute or share it among those that are in need of it. In fact, this particular protocol of fasting is a must if we desire to inherit the benefits that come as a result of it. Let us read below what the prophet Isaiah had to say about this to the children of Israel:

"Is it not to divide your bread with the hungry and bring the homeless poor into your house—when you see the naked, that you cover him, and that you hide not yourself from [the needs of] your own flesh and blood?" Isaiah 58:7. As you would have read, a part of the process of fasting is to share what we would have normally been comforted with before fasting, he insists that we do not hide from the need of others during this very critical period during our fasting.

In verse 9 of this same chapter, it begins with our word, "THEN," "Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and He will say, Here I am. If you take away from your midst yokes of oppression [wherever you find them], the finger pointed in scorn [toward the oppressed or the godly], and every form of false, harsh, unjust, and wicked speaking,

10 And if you pour out that with which you sustain your own life for the hungry and satisfy the need of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in darkness, and your obscurity and gloom become like the noonday" Isaiah 58:9-10.

Again, I have to point out the fact that the prophet is not speaking to sinners or people that serve other gods. In fact, he is talking to people that have identified and was at that time serving the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob the God of heaven and earth. He was revealing to them that to realign themselves with the purposes of God and bring them back spiritually as to where they should have been at that point they had to follow the complete protocol of the fast. What I found to be rather interesting was the fact, that the scripture started by saying:

"Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and He will say. Here I am" which is a clear indicator that God was not doing this before and whatever it was that they were doing wrong that caused it would have taken the protocol of this fast for him to not only hear them and their cry but to also respond to them.

My friend, please listen to God speaking to you through this article today. Have you been feeling as if God has forgotten you or he's just not listening to you? Do you feel as if everyone else prayers are being answered except yours? Have you been tossing to and fro in your mind the thought that you have been a Christian for so long and there has been no signs, wonders, miracles or the power of the Holy Spirit demonstrated in your life? Are there particular problems in your life that no matter how much you pray they refuse to move? Is your health failing, are you just right out confused about everything?

Well, this, as you know, is the last month of the year and if you have answered yes to any of the above questions. Then I must say to you, that you are in desperate need of a fast with a view of following the exact instructions provided above that I meticulously laid out for you according to scripture. I speak from much-accumulated experience, and I strongly advise you to complete a fast before 2015 if you do not want to repeat 2014.

Three day dry fast-to eliminate spiritual sickness

I have written quite a number of articles speaking specifically about spiritual sickness. At the same time I have received, and I am still receiving numerous emails as to how to combat and defeat such sickness.

In today's teaching on fasting, we will be focusing on the 3 days dry fast to eliminate spiritual sickness. Firstly, a three-day dry fast is a fast where one will not consume any liquids or food at all, there are no exceptions to this and it must be for 3 days or 72 hours. It is highly recommended that time is set aside specifically for this fast where there will be no form of distractions of any kind. Before this fast, scriptures concerning cleansing, purity, righteousness and the like should be written down in advance to be repeated during prayer time during the fast. I also strongly advise that the person engaging in such a fast MUST BE SIN FREE DURING THIS PERIOD! Meaning, there must be a confession of all sins particularly unforgiveness, sexual sins, etc. before the fast. Again, this will not work IF THERE IS UNCONFESSED SIN IN YOUR LIFE!

The reason for this specific fast is to eliminate the body of any and all points of contact that has become the source of the spiritual sickness that is now resident in the victim's body. For example, let's say an enemy has placed witchcraft contamination in some food that has been consumed by the victim. Of course, it will always look and appear as regular food. However, the spiritual items in that food which is not visible to the human eyes are spiritual contamination set to pollute the spirit of that person. Some of the physical symptoms the victim will experience would be unexplained swollen legs, various unexplained skin diseases such as lesions, rash, bumps, and lumps about the body. The victim will also experience strange things or objects crawling or moving throughout their body. They will also experience seeing things on their body that is not visible to others. The victim will be flooded with strange thoughts of fear and death, massive headaches and an overall feeling of sickness, that again cannot be explained, and no Doctor can identify its cause naturally. There are cases where the victim has had this evil in their system for so long that certain limbs either become disfigured or the victim becomes so sick that their appearance changes to something other than who that person use to look like. I personally know of cases where when such a person dies, with a distorted sickly appearance, the minute they pass away their features and appearance resume to who they looked like initially.

This is just evidence of the spirit of infirmity that had their spirit oppressed and in turn manifested in their physical appearance but again, once the body dies or the spirit is cast out everything returns to normal. I always use the story in Luke 13 as an example of when Jesus cast the "spirit of infirmity" out of the woman who was bent over for 18 years and immediately when Jesus cast the spirit out, the lady that was bent over for 18 years was able to stand up erect like everyone else.  Just for clarity, the human body becomes the host for the spirit of infirmity that becomes responsible for changing the appearance of the human host to a distorted figure, Matthew 12:43-45.

The interesting thing about this particular type of spiritual contamination is that whatever ingredients that this contamination was mixed with is what will fuel this evil once consumed by the victim. For example, let's say this spiritual contamination was placed in the victim's food of beans, rice, chicken, etc. Well, the water, salt, seasoning, butter and whatever else was used to mix this meal which included the spiritual contamination is all a part of that contamination.

Therefore, as long as the victim consumes anything in the future that is remotely related to the ingredients that made up the spiritual contamination their sickness will become worse. Of course, this will naturally sharply decrease the victim's quality of life and eventually kill the victim if not challenged by prayer and fasting. Thus, a dry fast is designed to starve the spiritual and physical contamination by not consuming anything for 3 days. Of course,  specific prayers laced with relevant scriptures must be violently prayed.

This explains why the victim has been praying for years to be delivered from their sickness and absolutely nothing changed for them. Some folks have given up on God simply because they did not understand the nature or root cause of their illness. Unfortunately, such spiritual challenges and many others like them will require prayer and fasting. Jesus himself said that this kind will only come out through prayer and fasting, Matthew 17:21. The reason why 3 days is required for such a fast because; the number 3 biblically speaking represents completion, perfection, etc. and if followed as prescribed you will see changes. The following prayer is to be recited 7 times every 12 hours of the fast until the fast has ended:

Heavenly Father, in the name of your son Jesus Christ, I confess all sins that I have committed against you in word, deed, thought and in action. Lord, I repent of all evil that I have done and, if there is any evil within me that I'm not aware of, I ask your forgiveness of those sins and pray that you cleanse me of all evil in Jesus name.

Lord, your word says that my body is the temple of the Lord and that I must also present my body as a living sacrifice holy and acceptable unto you. Lord, I am asking you during this fast in which I am surrendering my body as a living sacrifice unto you that you spiritually and physically remove all evil contamination that has been subtly deposited into my body that has caused unexplained sickness in my spirit and body.

Father, I firmly stand on your word that will bring about my healing. Lord, your word says, "Fear thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed; for I [am] thy God. I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness" Isaiah 41:10. Lord, I bind myself to your word that says, "Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou [art] my praise" Jeremiah 17:14. Father God, your word says that death and life is in the power of my tongue. Therefore I speak death to all spiritual and physical contamination in my body and, I command all residue of it to be passed out of me in the mighty name of your son Jesus Christ. Lord, you said that we should remind you of your word, therefore, I am reminding you of your word that says, "Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth" Jeremiah 33:6.

Father, your word says you will supply all my needs according to your riches in glory by Christ Jesus, so I am asking you to provide me with complete healing and deliverance to my spirit, soul, and body in the name of your son Jesus Christ. Lord, I am reminding you again of your word that says, no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and I have condemned all tongues that have risen up against me in judgment. Therefore, I am in a state of expectancy from you in the mighty name of your son Jesus Christ.

Lord, you said that you have seen my ways and you will heal me, you promised that you will lead me also and restore comfort unto my mourners and me, Isaiah 57:18. Finally, father, I am digging my faith deeper into the foundation of your word. Your word says, "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes, we are healed." Therefore, I decree and declare complete restoration of my spirit and body and whatever is in my system I send the fire of God against it and command it to be eliminated from my body in the name of Jesus Christ, which is the name above all names. Amen!
