Considering the redemtpion benefits, God desires is that all (Sinners) repents and become christians, when we pray for our enemies, are are saying Father "you know how best to handle this situation" take control, but when we pray against our enemies we are taking revenge.In Rom 12 vs19 - 20 says Vegence belongs to God and not us, if we revenge ourself, Godwill no longer revenge on our behalf,once we participate in the battle God withdraws and allows us to fight our battles, Christ says we should lobe our enemies, bless and be nice to our enemies Matt 5 Vs 43 - 45.

Now, Should a spirit filled christain pray for or against his enemies to perish or repent?? Asumming you found out who killed your parents, would you want them dead or repent and make heaven?

I believe that if a person prays "Back to Sender" prayer, the christain is simply saying let whatever "You send or intend to do me go back to you" as a christian, should we pray as such because "Back to sender" prayer is all about revengeful retaliation prayer, it means we are revenging through prayer Rom. 12 Vs 17 says do not repay evil for evil.

I believe when we, christians pray "Back to Sender" prayer we not obeying God and is displaying unforgiveness.

This is my opinion according to the word of God, what do you think about back to sender prayer, is it right for children of God to pray such an unforgiving prayer?

Pls reply.

There is nothing bad in a back to sender prayer as long as you do not mention his/her name or have the prayer in mind towards a particular person.

The bible is complete, there is nothing you won't find in it cos the same bible says, suffer no witch to live. It also said, no weapon fashioned against me shall prosper. Another one, tell the wicked that he shall eat the fruit of his labour, and many more.

When talking about repentance, be rest assured that only sinners repent, demons don't. It is not every man/woman that lives next to you, go to the same church together, meet on your way, that are human beings. Some are demon reincarnate and are on assignment and no matter how you pray, DEMONS don't repent.

If you choose to pray for your enemies and accept the arrows fashioned towards you, no problem (none of the option is a sin), but remember that after the enemy has succeeded over you, God will not be blaimed.

East:

I like your answer brother. When you know these divine secrets, then you are able to position your prayers.

In the book of Ephesians, the bible clearly states that we wrestly not against flesh but against powers, principalities etc
With that at the back of your mind, you can then see why someone like david never prrayed against saul, but against the enemy!!!!!!!
the devil has fathers, mothers, sons daughters etc, thosedthose are spiritual truths.
It is wrong only when your prayers are targeted against a human being.

debrief08:

You quoted the first part but refused or perharps ignorant of the prescribed weapons of our warfare, I am posting the whole verses for your reading, If you must quote the Bible quote it correctly not out of context to suit the Nigeria love for vengence.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power[b]. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. [/b]

No where here was it stated that we should fight back to sender but fight spiritual battles with Righteousness, Truth, Salvation, Peace, The Word of God and faith. If you want to do your vengenful prayers do so but stop hiding uinder christainity and quoting out of context verses, For the Word of God says "Vengence is mine says the Lord, I will repay" " the Lord shall fight for you and you shall hold your peace"

East:

Sorry if i didnot qoute the scriptures properly. My intension was to point out simply that it is not a prayer directed towards human beings
but instead it is directed towards evil spiritual forces. Infact if you are praying against a human being, then you are witchhunting.
Nevetheless, i dont yet see anything bad in such prayers so long as they are not directed towards the people you think are your enemies.
Thanks

diluminati:

Stop leaving in Delusion. What prompts you to attack anything spiritual (that which you dont even know nothing about)?
Nor be human being? If you dey cast and bind, no be human being carry you go reach that level? which image do you have in your mind when you are casting and binding? flowing spirits in the air? Use Commonsense please.

frosbel:

One simple question, show me where ' back to sender' is in the words of Christ , and we can have a basis for agreement.

Otherwise throw it into the bin.

"But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" - [b]Matthew 5:44[/b]

I really really despair for our Nigerian Christians who will never look to the bible for answers , instead they follow all these fake men of God.

Sad, truly so.

taigee:

WHAT KIND OF PRAYER DO YOU PRAY FOR THE BOKO HARAM SECT?
MAY GOD BLESS THEM AND INCREASE THEM? BIG NO.

PROCLAIMING THE DAY OF VENGEANCE IS A NEW TESTAMENT MINISTRY.

PRAY WHAT YOU LIKE: BUT AS FOR ME THIS IS MY PRAYER.


Psa 79:12  And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.

O' LORD LET THERE WEAPON AGAINST ME BE TO THEIR DESTRUCTION, LET THE ARROWS OF THE WICKED AGAINST YOUR HERITAGE RETURN ON THEM SEVEN FOLD. FOR EVERY SAINT THEY SHED HIS/HER BLOOD, LET THE BLOOD OF THEIR SONS AND DAUGHTERS BE SHED SEVEN TIMES.
AMEN!

GOD SAYS PRAY NOT FIGHT THEM, YOU ARE THE ONE TO DETERMINE WHAT YOU PRAY.

AS FOR ME IT'S DIE BY FIRE!!!!

frosbel:

Show me where in the new testament , mention is made of vengeance against our enemies, except you are one of the deceivers or deceived.

If you refuse to validate everything that nowadays parades as truth,  you deserve to be deceived.

solomon111:

It is indeed a sad thing that many believers today do not know the power invested on them.
What prayer of forgivess would you pray for someone or something that is hell- bent on wasting you?
It is indeed sadening to see many casualities of the agents of the devil,when in reality they should have opposed them with the power of prayer.
Unfortunately most of this casualities make hell,while the demonic personality responsible for the waste of life,encounters Jesus and makes heaven.
SO WHO NOW LOSE?
It is hightime we realize that we are in a war with a very bitter and determined enemy,who do not only want us to be useless in life,but also wants us to go to hell.
They do not want to repent,they have sold their soul to the devil,they specialize in utter destruction!
The only language they understand is VIOLENCE!
Indeed the violent taketh it by force.
Anybody that allows him/her self to be shortchanged by the enemy because he/she does not want to pray the neccessary prayers is on his/her own

mabell:
@poster,
What a christian should concentrate on is a prayer for the salvation of souls.

why did he say shake the dust off your feet if they dont receive you.

12 And when ye come into an house, salute it.

13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

Vanitageorge:
And we ignore I Timothy 1:20 where Paul handed over two to Satan...excuse me? how did he do this and why...was he dealing with the stiff necked? talk to me when your child is ritually abused over and over again...let me see you bless the abusers...and sorry, but do u seek justice and bang on the police doors? or u sit back and let the abuse go on...it righteously angers me that we have cushy christians who talk the love talk and the bless talk but have not been through pain...u forgive as the Lord commands but you dont take crap from no one. Try treating a king disrespectfully...he will throw you out. You and i are dignitaries in His kingdom. Innocent blood is crying on satanic altars...all abuse and gain through witchcraft go back to sender...

Vanitageorge:
I Timothy 1:20 where Paul handed over two to Satan...

19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:

20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

aspirebig:
Very well ooo. In fact, is it good for you to fold your hands and allow your enemies finish you? It is written that "Since the days of John the Baptist, the Kingdom of God suffereth violence and the violence taketh it by force. In the process of possessing your possession, back to sender is allowed. No time.If someone send you an arrow of poverty, sickness, untimely death, ,joblessness, childlessness, you are allowed to reverse the arrow back to the sender.

In fact, back to send is a serious prayer point. If you love your destiny, never play with such prayers.

This life is a battle field, they earlier you know this the better.

Vanitageorge:
Its not about 'whose' child is ritually abused. Irrelevant. There are children being abused. Full stop. If someone is 'handed over to satan ' as they have 'one foot here and one there',,,same to witches and warlocks that curse people return the curses. Amen...u dont even know about ritual abuse by your question...keep saying your peace prayers. Let Gods elect army as in Gideons time pray for all for the innocent in jesus' name.
