I know this is a bit selfish , but I am under severe Satanic attack through a Church , and need deliverance .

To give you an idea , I am severely overweight which is destroying my life , but every time I try to diet , a hindrance comes along .
Even in the last 2 days , I had planned not to eat very much , but my freezer was somehow open 2 days running , so I had to defrost and eat food I hadn't planned to eat .
I feel really boxed in , and since the attack originates from the Church , I cannot get deliverance there .

The pastor asked me a year ago to draw up a list of things I wanted to prosper in my life . Top of the list was weight .
Bizarrely , all the things I listed , far from improving , have gone downhill . I feel totally boxed in , as if whatever I try to do , I am thwarted .
Because I was homeless for a year and a half , ( sleeping on people's floors on in the car) , I had to take a very compromised place last summer , which has ultimately been a huge hindrance and put me thousands of pounds in debt .

I have very few emotions left in the locker these days , but I just feel God is showing me the worst things .

If anyone can pray for me , I would really appreciate it .

Yours Marcus

I don't know how any curse can hold you down unless you let it?

This is when dealing with issues before God is a necessity.

It's funny because every time l plan a fast the devil throws a banquet. What's new? I think the battle is won in the mind before you begin and not at the table. It's a hard society to live in but fasting breaks the yoke.

Lord l pray my friend Marcus will make the necessary changes concerning his church. I pray you send a prayer partner to him. Please help him to get at root issues. Thank you for being our wonderful counselor. Lord help us all to get at root issues. Help us to be doers of the word. We want to love you more and more. Please help us....In Jesus name, amen.

thank you for your advice and prayer Miki

But it is not simply curses Miki , there are people practicing black magic and evil , and summoning up spirits to attack other people .

In the Lord's Prayer , we pray :

'Deliver us from evil'

If only life were as easy as not letting evil affect us !!

I am really hexed at the moment , nothing has been working for me for the last 8 months , this is because I have upset a Voodoo Occultist who was masquerading as a Christian .

You underestimate the power of Evil Miki , and how it seeks to destroy people and their lives .
The Bible is quite clear , those who are not for me are against me .

If their are 4 people who your job application has to pass and one is not a Christian , the Devil will swiftly influence them against you . And he can also do the same with Christians , which is why God hates with avengeance ' idle talk' where we condemn people without a qualm .

According to your faith be it unto you (Matthew 9:29). When a man's ways please the LORD, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him (Proverbs 16:7) What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31).

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me (Psalm 23:4).

I do understand about evil. There are things you can do. I listened non stop to praise music one summer. I was under attack that whole summer. It left a mark but l was more than a conqueror. That summer anyway...
The beat goes on....

Battles intensify. Shall we lay down and die?

Check your house for objects or books associated with the occult. Little gifts etc. Get rid of them. What's going on in your neighborhood? These are all easy, given things. The hard part is the faith issue.

One really good method is to pray for the Voodoo guy. Constantly ask God to set him free. This is a huge weapon!

Hi can i help?
When doing battle i've realised it's all in the spirit first.
If you have a problem with food (Whodoesn't!!!!!) don't pray make me thin or stop me eating. The problem is not putting the donut in your mouth......or trying to stop putting the donut in your mouth.....
That's the end result!!
You have to trace the action back and pray from the inside out.
Don't pray "Lord help me not to put the donut in my mouth"
Pray that you don't have the desire or even the thought to put the donut in your mouth.
Think how long it took you to get overweight(It too me a few years!!). You or i didn't wake up one morning and shock/ horror...someone has glued 10 bags of fat to us and were way overweight!! It was all aquired by habit over a period of time....so it will take a period of time to loose it.
Start by praying that you loose the desire to eat wrongly or overeat or any thing else God brings to mind to you as to why it occured. Pray for the change in your thoughts ..You may get instant deliverence or it may take time/fasting and continued faith until it happens.(For me i don't get deliverence instantly in the natural and sometimes i don'nt get it in the spirit either straight away!! It is answered in the spirit first and then manifests in the natural9In my mindthoughts /emotions and then on my hips/tummy!!!!)It may be God shows you other thinngs first which seem unrelated but after time relate to the weight problem.
The biggest help i find is JUST BEING HONEST with god ...if you pray for weght loss and when you are quietly on your own and inwardly just don't believe you have that inner peace that the pray is answered ....DON't hide it from God tell him you are having problems believing and receiving...(It took me years to finally realise god love me..and you...just for who we are "warts and all").
Just pray for his faith for you to have faith to have faith to believe. just stick at it
Sorry must go as time on library computer is running out!!!!!
Let me know if you want pray or help
Mark

Thank you Mark :

I have several problems regarding food and health which I won't bore you with .

I think this all has a huge spiritual dimension for me , which I alluded to before .

I won't go into it , but all I know is that being seriously overweight is really affecting my life :

I feel
uncomfortable ,
self-conscious ,
don't want to go outside ,
exercise is difficult ,
life becomes more challenging ,

and so on .

I never eat junk food and eat sensibly , so I feel sorry for people who are addicted to rubbish , like in America where they put addictive substances in the food .

but thanks for your help .

The problem is really spiritual , in a nutshell , I spent 3 months last summer losing 3 stone , and really felt like I had slain a minor Leviathan . As soon as that happened 1) I lost my job - due to someone else really , and 2) the voodoo guy started messing my life up .( basically by lying , setting up false expectations which I was constructing my plans around )
Then my step-father died and i went back home for 6 weeks . My mother is lucky to have a very fast metabolism , so she eats very rich food , which also kills me !!


suddenly I had put 2 stone back on .

Now I am enormous . I feel so angry since I half killed myself last summer losing this weight and then I started going to a Church which promised much , but not only did not deliver , but delivered me serious lies and deceptions .

I just feel like Satan has the knives out for me .
yours Marcus

What's a stone?

Are you in a wheel chair?

Hi Miki
I guess simplebaby has given away the fact he is not American.
A stone is english...16 ounces in a pound and 14 pounds in a stone.
It sounds better when i say i'm 12 1/2 stone rather than 175 pounds if my maths or lack of it is right!
Anyway i hope this "lightens the weight" of your query!
Mark

Shalom Simple,

Bless your enemy, things will get worse, or at least it will look like that.

Ask Adonai to show you which doors you need to close.

We had free macins (spelled correctly ??? ) in the family who's evil influences where broken when we came to full repentance and where supported in prayer by our rabbi and congregation.
We asked Adonai to show the doors, and they where painfull as they had to do with alot of issues from the passed from sexual harassment to a bad self-image.

By asking Adonai where we had violated torah, the answers came.
With the answers we knew who to bind in the name of Yeshua and cast into the pit awaiting judgement.
After calling on the sacrifce of Yeshua atoning for our trangression of torah, we laid our hands on torah proclaiming that this is His word, alive in Yeshua, written in our hearts by the Holy Spirit.

Every day in morning prayers we proclaim the ' Shema Yisrael' We call on the authority reigning in our lives, Yeshua and thank Him.
In the evening we repent our daily trangressions and clean ourselves with the blood of Yeshua who sets us apart for HIM !!!

G'd instructs us to do that, to remember daily what He did, he saved us from bondage (Egypt) physical and spiritual, and is leading us to the promised land.

He wants you to join and do the same.

There is a lot to 'applying the blood' of Jesus to our lives daily.

In the Jewish faith, didn't they apply it to their ear so their hearing and thought life would be covered.

Then to the thumb of their right hand so their works would be covered.

And then to the big toe on their right foot so that the Lord would go before them in their walk?

I think there is a lot to praying out loud---- prayers of protection and covering.

And also to remember our limited authority and proclaim "The Lord" rebuke you satan....We might get ourselves in trouble if we take authority without being too clean. Does that make sense?

Hello Simplebaby,We can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens us. I also have a weight problem, so I know what you;re going through.
You pray for me and I will pray for you. With God nothings impossible.Ive tried every thing to loose weight and nothing works. My down fall is sweets.So I have to give them up.Some times my flesh gets in the way but Im trying.Thanks for your article it gave me new hope.
Theres evil every where, but if we command the devil to leave in the name of Jesus he has to leave. greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world. Rose

Thank you to everyone for your prayer - I have felt a burden being lifted off me recently , which I really have to thank God for .

Hello simplebaby,

The quote above which is your last message in this topic is 13 months ago. Are there any improvements since then?

meekness

simplebaby you are in my prayers...

keep on keeping on and never give up...

This week's promise: God will guard you from the evil one
How can I defend myself against Satan's attacks?

Be strong with the Lord's mighty power. Put on all of God's armor so that you will be to stand firm against all the strategies and tricks of the Devil. For we are not fighting against people made of flesh and blood, but against the evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against those mighty powers of darkness who rule this world, and against wicked spirits in the heavenly realms.

Ephesians 6:10-12 NLT


Tricking Houdini

During his life, Harry Houdini had a standing challenge that he could escape from any jail cell within an hour. A small town in the British Isles had just constructed a new jail cell they thought was escape-proof, and they wanted to put it to the test. Houdini entered the cell and immediately went to work. After two grueling hours—an hour past his deadline—Houdini finally withdrew his file from the lock and leaned against the door in exhaustion. To his amazement, the cell door swung open.

The jailors had tricked the great magician by closing the jail door but never bolting the lock. He was free all along, he just didn't know it.

Satan has the same strategy, doesn't he? His greatest weapon is to make us think that we are trapped, when in reality the cell door is always open. Satan can't bind us, so he tricks us into making us believe the cell door is locked.
