Demolishing Evil Altars

[1 Kings 13:1-10 KJV] “And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the Lord unto Beth-el: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense. [2] And he cried against the altar in the word of the Lord , and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord ; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men’s bones shall be burnt upon thee. [3] And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which the Lord hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out. [4] And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Beth-el, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him. [5] The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord . [6] And the king answered and said unto the man of God, Intreat now the face of the Lord thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again. And the man of God besought the Lord , and the king’s hand was restored him again, and became as it was before. [7] And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward. [8] And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place: [9] For so was it charged me by the word of the Lord , saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again by the same way that thou camest. [10] So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he came to Beth-el”.

I believe with all of my heart that we have come in to this year to serve the Lord with passion and wholeheartedly. I trust that we came to this year to;

Believe on the messengers of God, Worship in Spirit and in truth, Come before the Lord with singing to all appointed meetings, Go into the nations and preach the gospel, and Reachout to others.

I believe that we have agreed as one to work hard to advance the kingdom. I believe that this year must turn out good. I believe that the Lord shall help us do it.

But if we can serve the Lord with passion and wholeheartedly, then we must demolish all evil altars.

An altar is a place of sacrifice. This is a place where covenants are strengthened and fortified for discharge.

The text we read teach us how to demolish evil altars;

1. Speak against all evil altars by the Word of the Lord: 

Speak the Word against the altar. Don’t endorse evil, use the Word on your tongue against every budding evil. If you see people around you doing evil and making evil sacrifices, don’t keep quiet, speak the truth against it. People may not like you but you will be setting the stage for revival.

2. Trust the Lord to defend you as you obey Him:

Don’t fear what man will do against you. Rather, pray for those who suffer the judgment of God, if they repent. Vengeance is the Lord’s. The Lord will be there to defend His Word. No man can harm you. The Lord will be your defense.

Be open to all possibilities. Trust the Lord with the safety of your soul and life. The king attempted to smite the man of God, but God quickly came his defense. So just obey God and do what you have been asked to do. I commission you by the grace of God on my life to demolish every evil altar.

3. Have no fellowship with unbelievers:

You cannot break down by prayer, what you are building up by your action. Neither can you build by prayer what you are demolishing with your attitudes. You can only deal with evil altars when you denounce the unfruitful works of darkness. God told the young prophet not to have fellowship with anybody in Bethel, but he did not listen. Please take note that ‘anybody’ means ‘anybody’.

4. Beware of old prophets: 

Beware of old prophets, beware of deception. Hold fast to your conviction, don’t compromise for any mortal man. There are people who would not mind destroying you even when they know what you are doing is good and know that you are of God. There was an old prophet in Bethel who deceived the young minister from Judah. He led him to disobey God and after he was killed by a lion, he brought back his bones, buried him and requested that when he dies, they should bury him by the young prophet’s bones.

May you have wisdom and convictions that are strong! You cannot demolish evil altars except you are a person of strong convictions. Most evil altars define the way of life of people. Your attempt to change the status quo will be faced with opposition; very stiff opposition. Be strong. (See 1 Kings 13:11‭-‬32)

We speak against every evil altar! We command them to split and spill ashes now! May the Judgement of God be against every evil altar and every priest who serves on them. There are people who want to destroy you for no reason, may the Lord deliver you! Be blessed.

I love you;

Breaking Every Satanic Plot

Day 3 of 21 Days of Breaking Limits

[Luke 10:17-20 KJV] “And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. [18] And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. [19] Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. [20] Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven”.

We are delivered from the kingdom of darkness and translated into the kingdom of the Dear Son of God.

[Colossians 1:13 KJV] “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:”

Jesus said He has given us power to thread upon serpents and scorpions and over every power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt any of us. We are believing God to exercise this power to the benefit of the generations of men. From today, demons shall be subject to us and we shall walk in authority and power over them.

Prophetic prayer plan

#1. We want to begin with worship and singing to the Lord. He is a man of war and works wonders in praises. Spend quality time with the Lord in worship.

#2. I cast out every contrary spirit that has gained access to my life, spirit, destiny, family and career in the name of Jesus!

[Mark 16:15 KJV] “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature”.

[Luke 11:24 KJV] “When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out”.

I cast out the spirits of fear, lust, anxiety, and infirmities.

#3. I cast down, pull down, and subdue every imagination, thought, high thing or knowledge, that exalts itself above the knowledge of God.

[2 Corinthians 10:3-6 KJV] “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: [4] (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) [5] Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; [6] And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled”.

#4. We wrestle and withstand all principalities, powers, rulers of darkness, and spiritual wickedness in high places who are trying to control and manipulate my life, family, and ministry. (See Ephesians 6:10-18)

#5. I raze down contrary altars erected and ministered upon against my personal and family, financial progress, and health by fire and thunder!

I dispatch angelic reinforcement against any person, priest or priestess who ministers at such an altar against my life and finance; May the angels of the Lord overpower and disarm them!

I judge and condemn any contrary altar set up to fight my faith, health, wealth, and ministry in the name of Jesus!

#5. Dear Lord, deliver me from strange personalities. Deliver me from a strange woman or man that flatters with his or her lips and words (Portiphar’s wife)

#6. Father deliver us from wicked and unreasonable men; Let the gospel have its free with others as it was with me

[2 Thessalonians 3:2 KJV] “And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith”.

#7. Dear Lord, deliver us from the sleight cunningness of men who lie in wait to deceive

[Ephesians 4:11-16 KJV] “And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; [12] For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: [13] Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of th.e knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: [14] That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; [15] But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: [16] From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love”.

Deliver us from ravenous wolves that creep in into the church

[Acts 20:29 KJV] “For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock”.

Deliver us from brethren who say perverse things to draw following and disciples after themselves.

[Acts 20:30 KJV] “Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them”.

Deliver me from friends and acquaintances who try to turn me from the truth and from the faith.

[Acts 13:7 KJV] “Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God”.

Deliver me from those who cause division and offenses contrary to the doctrine.

[Romans 16:17 KJV] “Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them”.

Deliver me from followers and acquaintances who love the world; and  often forsake me in tough times.

#8. Deliver me from those who hate me for no reason; Let me not trust any man who is jealous and envious of my favour (like Cain).

#9. Deliver me from any messenger of Satan sent to buffet me. I speak grace and deliverance from satanic messengers. I declare a new day over my life.

May you experience the deliverance of the Almighty God as you walk in power and authority. We have the power; power to thread upon serpents and scorpions. We have authority from Christ to subdue and cast out devils.

I speak over your life today; as you walk on with, God every satanic power in your life is losing its hold in the name of Jesus Christ. You will walk in power and authority! You will not miss your season! You will walk in dominion!

Stay blessed; I love you!

Demolishing Evil Altars in Your City

“​Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars’ hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.  For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.” (Acts 17:22‭-‬23 KJV)

Reference: Acts 17:16-34, Psalms 2

An altar is a meeting point between mortals and deities or spirits. It is a place of sacrifice, where humans sacrifice various occultic elements to their gods to invoke their favour to their advantage, or to invoke their wrath against someone. The presence of an altar reinforces the control and doctrine of a spirit.

One truth remain that there are good altars and there are evil altars. Now, in every city, there are altars that are erected which fight the progress of people who defy the demands of the god or diety. There are altars in every city, institution, place, and culture. These altars fight the progress of those who do not submit to its demands.

Sometimes it is at the workplace; if there is something that people do to be promoted, that thing becomes an altar which you must also bow to in order to get promoted otherwise you might stay unpromoted. You can however arise today and fight every evil altar. You must decide that you will demolish these evil altar and take you promotion.

As you sow your seed and make investments, any evil altar erected and upon which sacrifices are made to fight your progress and productivity must break. You must invoke and engage the power of truth and resurrection against that altar.

Any evil person in your life who serves at an evil altar against the progress of your life must not succeed in his craft. May the Lord fire that person out of your life! Sometimes people close to you are actually priests and ministers are some evil altar. They secretly get information from you to use against you at the altar, but may the Lord chase them out of your life with fire and fury.

When you read Acts 17:16, we learn that Apostle Paul was stirred in his spirit. May the Holy Ghost stir you up! May you recieve a holy indignation against any altar erected against you in the name of Jesus Christ! Any evil minister who serves on any evil altar is exposed now by fire!

Any altars erected in this city, in your family, or at your workplace to fight you is rebuked  now in the name of Jesus Christ! From today we shall walk in the spiritual awareness that we are the offsprings of God.

From today we shall beware of people who are always wishing and waiting to hear a new thing. I arrest and bind every superstitious spirit in our community in the name of Jesus Christ! This city shall have light.  My family shall not walk in darkness in the name of Jesus Christ.

We have the rod of iron to demolish these altars and dash them as potters clay. As you wait on God today spend time praying and speaking against any altars erected against your life. Your words can make a great difference. Speak! Don’t hold your peace! Pray and pray again!

Stay blessed; I love you!
