There are many in Church who earnestly seek the truth and think they are on course to it, but unknown to them, they are groping in darkness. They have a zeal and longing for what is pure but lack the knowledge of it. They emain in this situation not of their own accord, but because they are misguided. To such longing Souls is this message addressed.

One of the teachings of Christ that has been greatly falsified and used to misdirect men is the subject of Prayer. Christ taught effectively on Prayer and left a model for men to follow (Matthew 6:9-13). This prayer model which is known as The Lord's Prayer, contains various segments with loud and visible connotations. The first segment, "Our Father who art in heaven", affirms our recognition of the Almighty as our Father. To say the very words, "our Father" means that we sincerely and humbly submit to Him as children, asking Him to treat us in the same way a father does his children.

The second part, " hallowed be thy Name", is an assurance of sincere worship and reverence to God. Many Christians tell lies concerning this, for though they use the name of God carelessly and frivolously, they hurry through this prayer without a thought.

The words, "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is done in Heaven", reveal our earnest desire and willingness to adapt to the Will of God, even as the Beings above do. The will of God is not separate from the truth and the truth of course lies in the Word which must be absorbed and lived out. It is only after expressing our pure desire to swing in line with God's Will, that our petitions should be presented. This is now when we can say, "give us this day, our daily bread.

In the Lord's Prayer we remind ourselves of the existing judgment which unfolds in the natural law of sowing and reaping. "Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who trespass against us".This loudly rings, that if we desire forgiveness, we should sow it in people who offend us. You don't expect to be forgiven when you are killing those who wrong you in your daily prayers. A back-to-sender prayer is against the teachings of Christ. The words, "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil", is a sincere prayer against the manipulations of the Darkness. Everyone who lives on earth sure needs this prayer. The last part of the Lord's Prayer which says, " For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever", guides us to attest to God's dominion and sovereignty.

It is obvious, that what obtains in church today is the direct opposite of what Christ taught. The Church has abandoned the above Prayer Model for doctrines of men. Instead of encouraging forgiveness, they teach men to pray vengeance prayers. While the Lord wills that we all work for the development of each other, the church is busy working for the destruction of those they brand, "wicked". People are made to believe, that praying against the enemy is what brings solution to their predicaments. So when it comes to praying for the enemy to die, church buildings vibrate, and the resounding "amen", is at its peak. What an error! Desperation has driven men against the will of the Almighty.

Church leaders preach so admiringly about love and forgiveness, yet it is common to see them organize programs with themes like: " Operation fire for fire, back to sender, or die by fire". Where then lies the love and forgiveness they preach? Lucifer has blindfolded these leaders. He is aware, that by concealing the truth from them, he will not only lay a hold on them, but also on the multitudes that follow them.

Where does the twisted idea on prayer come from? Amazingly most Christians make reference to the scripture in Exodus 22:18, which reads, "Suffer not a witch to live". They regard this scripture as a death sentence on the wicked because they lack understanding of the Word.

We have to understand, that the Almighty deals with men in dispensations, according to their level of understanding. The scripture in Exodus chapter 22, and its parallel in Leviticus chapter 20, were given in the dispensation of the Law as punishment for Law offenders. These scriptures talk not only about punishment for the witch, but also for idol worshippers, disobedient children, adulterers, homosexuals, those who relate sexually with animals, Couples who relate sexually during the woman's monthly flows, etc. All these offenders were to be put to death in the dispensation of the Law.

But the Order has changed. We are now in a new dispensation, that of the Holy Spirit. There is room for repentance. Christ taught about forgiveness and repentance. He came to save men through His word, not to destroy them. The woman that was caught in the act of adultery deserved a death penalty under the Mosaic Law, but when she was brought to Jesus, He gave her a second chance (John 8:11).

Provided he is willing, every law offender now has a chance to repent. You have to understand, that as the Lord desires the salvation of the disobedient child, the adulterer, the homosexual, so does He desire the salvation of that hateful and resentful neighbor of yours, your colleagues at work, business clients, that occult grand master, the witch, the murderer, and the likes. Our wrong desire to destroy, cannot be placed over God's desire to save. The Order has changed.

In making reference to Luke chapter 18, a renowned Church leader said Jesus taught men to pray vengeance prayers. This is a misrepresentation of the scripture. Christ never taught men to pray vengeance prayers. Rather He taught them to love and pray for their enemies, to bless those who curse them, and to do good to those who hate them (Mathew 5:44-45). The account of Luke chapter18 is only a parable, a moral story that Christ used to teach about patience and persistence.

What does the event of the Lord's transfiguration teach? Lets observe the following striking features in this event (Matthew 27:1-5):
* Moses and Elijah appeared talking with Jesus.
* Peter then suggested the building of three tabernacles for the three prophets ( Jesus, Moses and Elijah).
* Suddenly a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice came from the cloud saying, "This is my beloved Son in whom I'm well pleased. Listen to him".

From the above account we learn that Christ is the Son of God and therefore different from every other prophet. Other prophets made remarkable impacts in the course of their calling, but in certain aspects they blundered. Jesus was complete in obedience to the Father. This is why he was the only One who made Him well pleased. He is therefore the One qualified to be our perfect example. This is the reason why the voice said, listen to Him

Listen to Him means, follow His examples and do exactly as He teaches you. Christians should be emulators of Christ not Moses, Elijah. David, etc.These men all made mistakes in the course of their service. So you can only emulate their good examples, not their mistakes.

When you survey the life of Christ on earth, what you see is compassion not condemnation, humility not arrogance, love not hatred, and forgiveness not vengeance. While in agony on the cross, Jesus prayed for those who despised him, not against them. On a certain occasion in a town where the Lord was not given a good reception, his disciples opted to call down fire on the inhabitants as Elijah did. But rather than encourage them, Jesus turned and rebuked them ( Luke 9:54-56).

A woman once asked, did David not pray against his enemies? What about the cursing psalms he wrote? Then I asked her, did David not commit adultery? Did he not kill in order to conceal his sinful acts? Would you enter into adultery or murder just because David did? The truth is, Jesus Christ is the author and finisher of the Christian faith, not David or any other prophet. While on earth, He used His power positively. A Christian should learn from Him and strive to do as He did.

Now to the cursing Psalms. These are those Psalms that invoke judgment or curses on those perceived to be enemies. They express the feelings of the composer at the time of writing. David wrote these Psalms during a great period of distress. He was hiding from King Saul and his Son Absalom who were after his life. Notice that although these two people were his major reason for writing the cursing Psalms, when David had the opportunity to kill Saul, he spared Saul's life. Also when Absalom died, it was expected that David would jump up for joy, but rather than rejoice at the fall of his enemy, David broke down in tears. This points us to the fact that David wrote the cursing Psalms out of desperation for help, not out of hatred for his enemies.

So the cursing Psalms should be regarded as David's unbridled cries of agony. They do not align with the teachings of Christ and a Christian should not attempt to mouth them. Even in the face of distress or trial, you have to learn to bridle your tongue. You don't voice out everything that streams into your heart in the time of pressure, for you will give account of every idle word that proceeds from your mouth.

Why did Isaiah prophesy that men will condemn every tongue that shall rise against them in judgment? This is another scripture that is used to misdirect people. To condemn does not mean to curse or kill. According to the English dictionary, it means, to counter or disprove. You don't condemn by cursing or praying for someone to die, but by living according to the message of Christ. When you live in accordance with the Word, It's intense light will counter or disolve the attacks of the Darkness initiated against you.

A young Preacher once said to me, "Big pastors pray vengeance prayers and they get results" Another one asked, "If such prayers are against God's will, who then has been answering them?"

It would be imperfection for the Almighty to answer prayers made against His will. The Word says, the thief came to steal, kill and destroy, but Christ came to give life. (John 10:10). If you pray for anyone to die and receive result, know of a truth, that it is the one who has the mission to kill and destroy that gave you the result. His main purpose of destroying that person is to make you believe that it was God who answered your prayer. By so doing he keeps you in perpetual bondage and leads you to destruction. Don't be ignorant!

So you don't condemn by cursing or praying for someone to die. You condemn by living according to the Word and using the Word to counter the attack and plan of the enemy against you.

Who Answers Vengeance Prayers? A young Preacher once told me, "big pastors pray vengeance prayers and they get result". Another one asked, " if such prayers are against God's will, who then has been answering them?

It would be imperfection for God to answer prayers made against His will. Results received after praying against God's will is nothing but glorified magic. The Word says, the thief ( Satan) came to steal, kill and destroy, but Christ came to give life (John 10:10). If you pray for anyone to die and receive result, know of a truth, that it is the one who has the ministry of killing and destroying that gave you that result. His main purpose of destroying that person is to make you believe that it was God who answered your prayer. By so doing he keeps you in perpetual bondage and leads you to destruction. Don't be ignorant.

Bro that depends on your condition ...if indeed you have suffered in the hands of witches/wizard you won't wait for anybody to Tell you to rise up and do whatever you can to save yourself ,God is still the one to answer the prayers

Is Psalm 35 not in your Bible? Have you never read it? .. what did Jesus mean when he say " From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been subjected to violence, and violent people have been raiding it." ?

Thank you for your comment. I must say your question has already been answered in my post.
Psalm 35 in the bible is among the cursing Psalms David wrote out of desperation for help when king Saul and Absalom his son were trying to kill him. These Psalms express David"s feelings at the particular time he wrote them. But if you study your bible well, you will realize, that when eventually David had a golden opportunity to kill Saul, he spared his life. Also when Absalom, one of the enemies who caused David to write those Psalms died in a battle, David broke down in tears instead of jumping for joy. These responses of David show that he wrote the cursing Psalms out of desperation for help, not out of hatred for his enemies. He needed to learn to bridle his tongue in the time of pressure.
Besides David was a man, not the Christ we are to emulate. He made many mistakes in the course of his service. He committed adultery and manipulated battle positions to kill Uriah. I am sure you wouldn't want to commit adultery because David did.

What happened to Saul after all?

Wasn't that answer to Davids prayer??

@ the bold , of course you know ,even those people you say are praying the wrong way will also act like David.



The truth is you are living in safe zone that's why you think that way.....If Satan hit you hard repeatedly through its stubborn Human agent , then you will understand Why people pray that way.... Hope you know the life story of Bishop Benson Idahosa??




BTW have you ever casted out demons??
