Day 11: Pray to Break the Spirit of Death

 The Spirit of Death


Death and the Underworld Death Forces:

Some things are devoted to deities through destruction (such as Jericho), but the spirit of death attempts to capture people's souls and take them to hell to offer them to Satan by taking their lives.

It lies in wait for a person with a fatal disease, ready to take his life; it causes a person to die in an accident; or it cooperates with desperate evil spirits to cause a person to commit suicide.

The Bible says

The cords of death, the snares of death (Psalm 18:4,5)

It describes the work of the spirit of death, which causes people to die prematurely.

In Ecclesiastes 12:7, Solomon described a person's concept of the body returning to the earth after death: " And the dust will return to the earth as it was and the spirit will return to God who gave it." Life transitions from one form into another form.

The concept of the spirit of death:

Sin brought death to mankind and caused them to be cast out of Garden of Eden, which meant separation from God. True life lies in communication with God, and death means the breaking of that communion.

The curse that specifically executes death is a dark power that has a familial hereditary characteristic and is passed down from generation to generation. However, there are also a few who are deceived, attacked, bound, controlled, or even lose their lives by the enemy due to personal factors or deviant behaviors, such as idolatry, fortune-telling, involvement in the occult, witchcraft, etc.

The thief (the devil) does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)

The way to defeat the dark power of death is to die, be buried, and be resurrected with Jesus Christ.

The Curse of Death and the Inner Vow:

This is an internal vow, where a person says to himself or herself that he wants to die. When a person has gone through a very painful experience, perhaps after a sexual relationship breaks down, he feels betrayed; perhaps a loved one dies; or he loses his job; he is out of work and is fired. He is filled with despair and thinks that he would rather die. If this person keeps repeating these words, the spirit of death can enter and fill his mind. Once he encounters a negative experience, he wishes to die.

To have [life] or to die is a choice. The Bible says that when you pray, you will receive what your heart desires. So when people expect to die, they open their hearts to evil spirits. The oath of death is very powerful.

The spirit of death manifests itself as:

When the spirit of death attacks a person, the person may experience brief suicidal emotions at the mildest level and auditory and visual hallucinations at the worst. The person may have suicidal thoughts, fear of death, thoughts of lethal harm, lack of joy, numbness, and indifference. The person may choose violent crimes and have evil thoughts of murder, suicide, and abortion. The person may try to harm or kill the body, take away life, and lose eternal life.

When the spirit of death attacks people, it does not necessarily cause them to die immediately; it causes them to have a lingering desire to die, which attacks every aspect of their life, making them weak, depressed, lazy, listless, powerless, without power, full of despair, depression, confusion, and hopelessness. It makes them unable to understand the gospel and lose eternal life. The body may suddenly feel very cold, or they may get goose bumps and shiver.

Causes of the Spirit of Death:

  1. In the womb (abortion or attempted abortion)
  2. Having experienced death-related frights when young.
  3. Have experienced death-related events, such as homicide, car accidents, and other accidents.
  4. There have been incidents of innocent blood being shed in the family; there has been a history of homicide; there has been a history of suicide (immediate relatives committing suicide, especially the mother); there has been experience of war, hostility, etc., leading to intimidation by the spirits of the dead.
  5. Experienced suicide attempts.
  6. Experienced serious domestic violence, abandonment, divorce, promiscuity and other serious harm incidents.
  7. Be influenced by culture, films and TV shows related to death.
  8. Curses related to death are uttered from the mouth. (Laughing to death, angry to death, wishing to die soon)
  9. Have experienced or are currently experiencing a serious, life-threatening illness that could result in death.
  10. Encountering natural disasters associated with death, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, droughts, famines, etc.
  11. Idol worship, involvement in occultism, witchcraft, etc. (refers to contact with: things related to paganism, contact with supernatural powers that are not from God: fortune-telling, drawing lots, drinking talismans, divination, horoscopes, horoscope personality analysis, and being trapped in the virtual world. Witchcraft also includes controlling others, such as using a strong tone and violence to drive others to obey oneself)
  12. Offering sacrifices to pagan gods. Entering temples and offering food and offerings to idols, worshipping temple gods, Ksitigarbha (Dizang), the god of death and other spirits of the dead; participating in the first seven days of mourning, salvation, etc.;
  13. Following the traditional Chinese culture and customs, worshipping ancestors, etc. On some important festivals and death anniversaries, people worship their ancestors, sweep tombs, kowtow, burn incense, burn paper money and ingots; set up ancestral altars and tablets, make statues of ancestors, build ancestral temples, and offer sacrifices to ancestors with food and offerings.
  14. Participating in fortune-telling, occultism, witchcraft, etc. Tarot card divination, fortune-telling, playing with Ouija, pen spirits, psychics, etc. Opening the door to the dark power, accepting related psychological suggestions, lies and other non-God beliefs, allowing the dark forces of occultism, witchcraft and witchcraft to erode and destroy. Ancestors or oneself causing death; talking to virtual characters; making wishes with idols to shorten one's life to a certain power or character; agreeing to die on the same day;
  15. Going to cemeteries, crematoriums, hospital morgues, such as visiting some mausoleums and cemeteries; such as visiting prisons where torture and abuse have occurred (such as visiting Chongqing's Zhazidong). Especially, people who visit graves are in a weak state of sadness and sorrow, and are easily attacked by the spirits of death.
  16. The home contains spirits of the dead, cultural relics and antiques dug out from tombs, books, pictures, portraits of the dead, etc., such as the Terracotta Warriors.

Cut off and break off:

Clean up, clear out. First of all, get rid of these spirits of death from your home.

  • Discs, books, etc. are ruined, thrown away, or burned.
  • The game is completely deleted.
  • All cards, books, tools, etc. that involve the occult, witchcraft, etc., must be destroyed and thrown away. (Note: never give them to others, so as not to harm others.)

The way to overcome the dark power of death is to die, be buried, and be resurrected with Jesus Christ. If we "die" in Jesus Christ, we are free from sin, and the power of sin is death. The Lord saves us from the dark power of death through resurrection from the dead. When we claim this promise by faith, we can remove the attacks and threats of the dark power of death on us.

Pray to God and confess your sins

In the name of Jesus Christ, cut off and break:

Abba Father, dear Lord Jesus Christ, mighty Holy Spirit, Triune God, today I come before You, for myself, my parents, and my ancestors have committed the above evils, sinned against God, hurt and polluted our own hearts, and affected others. I confess and repent to You. I ask the Lord Jesus Christ to forgive our sins, and I also renounce these sins. I ask the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ to cleanse us of these sins, all filth and contamination.

I also severed all ties with the spirits of death and other dark powers behind these behaviors. The cross of Jesus stands between me and them. I have completely severed ties with them in the spiritual world. There is no connection or involvement between me and them.

Lord Jesus, because you bore all the curses for me on the cross, I now draw on your promises, in the name of Jesus Christ, to break the curses brought about by the sins mentioned above; in the name of Jesus Christ, drive away the spirit of death and the spirit of filth; in the name of Jesus, I command you to leave me and my family forever, and go to where the Lord Jesus wants you to go. May the Holy Spirit of the Lord be poured out on me and my family, nourishing us and filling us!

In the name of Jesus, I declare to the spirit world: I and my family will not die, And declare the works of the Lord. The Lord has chastened me severely, But He has not given me over to death. (Psalm 118:17-18)

I choose life!

The LORD sent his word and healed me; he delivered me from destructions. (Psalm 107:20)

Lord Jesus Christ, I come before you and confess my sins to you because I have committed sins related to death and offended you. Please forgive me. Now, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I renounce my words, actions, and thoughts related to death; I also sever any connection with death in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Proclamation of Blessing

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?” (John 11:25-26)

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. (John 14:6)

 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. (Hebrews 2:14-15)

 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. (Romans 6:8-9)

Lord Jesus, You are the resurrected Lord. I want to thank and praise You! You have overcome all the dark powers of death, the grave, and Hades. Because I trust in You, I live in You, die with You, be buried with You, and resurrect with You. Please enable me to live for You every day. Amen!

My dearest Lord, thank you for saving my life and making me overcome death, saving my eyes from shedding tears, and saving my feet from falling. I raise the cup of salvation together with my Abba Heavenly Father and praise the name of the Lord, because your love extends to all generations and endures forever. Hallelujah!

Lord Jesus, You have overcome the powers of death and Hades, and You resurrected from the dead and sit at the right hand of God Almighty. You have broken the sting of death and given me the authority to overcome death. Nothing is impossible for You. You are my refuge, a rock that will never be shaken.

Lord Jesus, because of the salvation that comes from you, I have become a new creation. I am no longer the old me who was controlled and bound by sin. You have redeemed me from the power of sin and death and given me a new life in you.

Lord Jesus, you comforted me and said, "Don't be sad. Believe in God and believe in you." Your words deeply comforted my heart and made me know that I am not condemned if I am in Christ, because the law of the Spirit of life has freed me in Christ Jesus, freeing me from the law of sin and death. From now on, I am no longer a slave to sin, but a child of God's holiness and glory.

Lord Jesus, thank you for the precious blood that was shed on the cross to cleanse me. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for keeping me away from all temptations and enticement of sin, allowing me to become a holy and glorious child, so that I can be reconciled with God the Father because of the love and grace that comes from you.

Abba Father, please let me know for sure that I am your child, a co-heir of God with Christ, and a son. Let me understand that I have all the authority and power you have given us, and I can rely on them to win when we fight. I also ask the Lord to make me sure that we can follow Jesus Christ on the same path of the cross. When we face all kinds of circumstances and difficulties and bear the cross, we can imitate the life style of the Lord Jesus, suffer with Him, and be glorified with Him.

Lord Jesus, let me know you and myself better in the light of your words. Under the guidance of your Holy Spirit of truth, let my life be built up and grow, live out the authority and power of God’s children, and live out the beautiful style of the life of the Lord Jesus Christ, to glorify your own name.

I pray this in the holy name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!

Breaking the Prayer of Idol Worship

1. Prayer to break the evil spirit of idolatry

Dear Abba Heavenly Father, I repent and acknowledge that before I knew You, my family and ancestors followed China’s traditional culture and customs. On important festivals, such as Tomb-Sweeping Day, Cold Clothes Festival, Menglan Festival, Chinese New Year, weddings, and the anniversary of the death of deceased relatives, we worshiped our ancestors, swept graves, kowtowed, burned incense, burned paper money and gold ingots, etc., or set up altars and ancestral tablets, and offered sacrifices to our ancestors with three kinds of gifts, water, wine, fruits and snacks, and other food and offerings. We even made statues of our ancestors and built ancestral temples, and held ancestral worship ceremonies in the ancestral halls or temples on festivals or the anniversary of the death of our ancestors.

In order to demonstrate the Confucian and Taoist filial piety of respecting the dead and remembering our ancestors, we kowtow, bow, and kneel to our ancestors during sacrifices; we pray to the spirits of our ancestors for peace, blessings, and protection; at funerals we set up mourning halls for the deceased for people to worship, display offerings and sacrifices, light candles and burn incense, and even invite monks and Taoists to chant sutras to pray for the souls to be reborn, as well as perform various rituals of sorcery and witchcraft.

Father, we acknowledge that these customs and behaviors are the sins of worshiping false gods, worshiping the dead, and having fellowship with the dead. They are the sins of communicating with ghosts. They are the sins of allowing evil spirits and sorcery to invade the family. They are the sins of inviting family-based evil spirits to invade ourselves and our descendants. We ask the Lord to forgive and pardon all our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness.

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I declare to break and cancel all the sacrificial and worship ceremonies that I and my family’s ancestors have performed to the tablets, statues, graves, altars, portraits and photos of our ancestors and deceased relatives. The altars that have been set up, the sacrifices, offerings, water and wine that have been offered, the incense burners used, the paper money and gold ingots that have been burned, the candles that have been lit, the incense that has been burned, and the paper offerings that have been burned; every scripture and spell recited by monks, Taoists, nuns, witches and sorcerers, and the wooden fish and bells used when reciting, all filthy ritual instruments, all prayers, wishes, declarations and vows, all bows, kowtows, worships, and kneelings, I now declare them all invalid in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. The precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ completely shatters and breaks them, breaks all their power, curses and influence, breaks their invasion, completely uproots them, and binds them in the name of the Lord Jesus!

All the evil spirits, unclean demons, and curses that were invited in due to ignorant and foolish rituals, declarations, and oaths must be completely bound and brought to the feet of the Lord Jesus. The precious blood of the Lord Jesus draws the boundary, and the cross stands in the middle, bearing all these curses, and will no longer affect me and my descendants.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I break and cancel all the covenants made by the power of the underworld, the covenants made with the dead, the idols in temples and ancestral halls, and the dark power behind them because of these rituals, objects, oaths, vows, eulogies, declarations, and vows. I declare them completely broken! Cancelled! On behalf of myself and my ancestors, I confess and repent to God, and pray for complete forgiveness. I declare that all these covenants are completely ineffective, powerless, without power, without status, and without commemoration in the spiritual and material worlds, in our lives, and in our families!

I draw on the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ shed on the cross to completely break, shatter and cancel it! Because of the punishment suffered by the Lord Jesus, I and my descendants have peace, and because of the wounds suffered by the Lord Jesus, I and my descendants have been healed; because the Lord Jesus made a sin offering, a guilt offering and a propitiation for me on the cross, and took on all the curses and deaths for me, my descendants and my family, I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!

Lord Jesus, thank you for forgiving and pardoning all my sins and transgressions, and cleansing me from all unrighteousness. Now, in your forgiveness, I use my will to choose to forgive my ancestors, parents, relatives, and friends, and everyone else who has influenced me to worship ancestors and the dead, and who has taught and influenced me to fall into the traditional Chinese culture and customs that offend God’s words, rituals, and behaviors.

I release each of them into the freedom of my forgiveness, and free them from the debts they owed me, especially the debts of love and righteousness. In the name of Jesus, I command all the powers of death in the underworld, evil spirits, and family evil spirits that my ancestors once invited in, guardian angels, all idols and the dark powers behind them to leave me, my family, and my descendants!

I now declare that I renounce you and give the sovereignty of my life, my family, my clan, and my children to the Lord Jesus Christ. You no longer have any rights, share, or status in the lives of me, my family, my clan, and my descendants! If you continue to harass, disturb, or infringe upon me, it is illegal. In the name of Jesus Christ, I will kill you with the sword of the Holy Spirit! I will burn you with the blazing fire of the Holy Spirit! I pray in the holy name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!

2. Prayer to break the power of idols

In the name of Jesus, I break and cancel all the sacrifices, celebrations and various religious rituals of idolatry that I, my family and my ancestors have performed to idols and ancestors; as well as the altars set up in the rituals, the offerings and sacrifices, the incense burners, ritual instruments, wooden fish and command flags used; the talismans, sachets, ash water, oil money donated, the lots drawn, the candles lit, the incense burned and the lamps lit; the Dharma names, Taoist names, names of idols received, every word and sentence of the scriptures and mantras recited; all the prayers, wishes, declarations, vows, all the kowtows, worships, kneelings, joining of hands and bows, etc.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I declare them all null and void! They can no longer affect me, my family, and my descendants! I also break the covenants and dark powers made by these rituals, objects, prayers, vows, money, altars, idols, and false gods, as well as the enemy behind them, the devil, and declare them completely invalid! In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!

Dear Heavenly Father, I come before You and admit that I used to follow my family to worship ancestors on some traditional Chinese customs days and festivals, as well as the anniversary of the death of ancestors, and burn paper money, sacrifices, and offerings to deceased relatives. I admit that I participated in it and worshiped the devil out of ignorance. Lord, please forgive my ignorance and stupidity. I used to eat things sacrificed to idols, believing that burning paper money for them would give them money to use in the underworld and bless future generations. I confess and repent to You for believing and following such lies, and ask the precious blood of the Lord Jesus to wipe out and cleanse all my transgressions.

I declare that I renounce the act of offering sacrifices to idols, the act of worshipping the spirits of my ancestors, I renounce them completely, I cut them off completely, and I renounce all things offered to idols. Lord, please forgive me. Not only do I do it myself, I also lead my family and even our children to do it. I not only worship my ancestors, worship the tablets, burn paper money, and eat things offered to idols, I not only do it myself, I also let others do it. Heavenly Father, I ask you to forgive and pardon me.

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I revoke and break all worship to Satan. I revoke every dedication made to them. I revoke every covenant made with them. I revoke every altar ever established for them. I revoke every word, phrase, praise and prayer ever spoken to them. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I also do not accept any blessing, any healing, any power that comes from Satan. I reject them all.

I refuse to accept any benefit from Satan. I only want the blessing from the Lord Jesus so that I belong to the Lord alone. I renounce all the works of Satan in my life. I disagree with you. Now Satan, you must leave me and go away.

Jesus Christ sets me free. The precious blood of Jesus once again covers and cleanses me. I pray that the precious blood of Jesus will completely redeem me from these sins and the act of ancestor worship at this moment. I pray that the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ will stand between me and our family, between me and the ancestors of all generations whom I have worshiped.

Lord Jesus, I invite you to break every ungodly soul tie, spirit tie, and body tie that was created during these rituals. Lord Jesus, please break and remove them for us. I only want a good connection with the Lord Jesus. All the connection portals, spiritual channels, secret passages, and back doors brought by Satan are closed in the name of Jesus! Thank you Lord, thank you Lord for hearing my prayers. It is the holy name of Jesus Christ, Amen! Hallelujah!
