What Do You Pray About During Warfare Prayer? Declaration of your faith. You start by making some scriptural confessions. Then you go on to praise and worship. It is not good to abandon any of the above things and just start praying. They have their functions. Bold declaration of your faith is warfare praying. Somebody who stands up and says, “Through the blood of Jesus, I am justified, through the blood of Jesus I have peace, is making a declaration. Resisting the devil: When you say, resist, it means that you do not want to give that thing any chance. There is a Bible passage that says, “Be angry, but sin not, let not the sun set on your anger.” Another verse says, “Give the enemy no place,” meaning that your anger can create a place for the enemy. So if you want to resist the devil, when he says, “Okay begin to boil,” you will say, “No, I refuse to boil, in Jesus’ name.” If he says, “Talk now, look at how they are abusing you,” you will say, “I refuse to talk, in Jesus’ name. Confession of sins: Confess your sins to the Lord. Tell Him that you are sorry for your sins. This is very serious because it is that sin that will give the devil a foothold. Once you confess it to the Lord, the devil will have no where to hide in your life. Forgiveness of sins: If anybody has offended you, forgive him and also ask the Lord to forgive you your own sins. Not forgiving anyone who has offended you is a very bad business because you lose more, for you will be released unto the hands of what the Bible calls tormentors and they will torment you day and night. Breaking soul-ties: A lot of people have tied their souls to evil people, e.g. old boyfriends, old girlfriends, satanic priests and fake prophets. Warfare prayer is needed to break these ties. A man got married on a Saturday and by the following Sunday he rushed back with a complaint that he was not settled as he could not keep his mind off his former girlfriend who had equally married. Many of our spinsters and bachelors need to break soul ties so that they can be released. Release from evil domination and control: When a person says, “I refuse evil to dominate me,” or “I refuse evil to control me,” he is praying a great warfare prayer. Release from evil domination is necessary for spiritual growth. Release from acquired and inherited bondage: When a person has acquired or inherited a bondage, the kind of prayer that will set him free is warfare prayer. Breaking of curses, spells, charms, jinxes and bewitchment: When you break a curse or a spell, you command a charm to become powerless, or you decree that a jinx should not continue to operate or release something from bewitchment, you are doing warfare prayer. Renunciation of the occult: When somebody has been a member of a secret society or in the wrong church where they practice unscriptural things and you pull out of the place renouncing your involvement, it is warfare praying. Destruction of evil communication: You can pray like this: “I don’t want anything evil to communicate with me” and then you break that communication system. Taking authority over the strongman wherever he may be. Commanding Satan to release all he has stolen: For every thing the enemy has stolen from you, you can say “Yes, I want it back now, seven folds, in the name of Jesus.” Arresting and binding territorial spirit: In the territory wherever you live, there must be some spirits around controlling the place. You will arrest them and bind their powers. There is no where in the world that is free. Anywhere you find yourself, do warfare praying. If a believer happens to travel out and has to lodge in a hotel, he must arrest and bind the spirits there because you never can tell the person who slept on that bed before you. Claiming back lost ground: A ground that is lost is claimed back through warfare praying. Praises: Praise the Lord always. The enemies of our soul can attack many areas of our lives. They can attack the physical body through diseases, food and physical objects. These things require warfare praying. When an object is made for occult purposes it carries some powers. If a person then touches the thing or hangs it on his or her neck, the demon attached to it enters the body of the person. The only way to get them out is through warfare praying. It will be 100 per cent foolishness for a man to assume that since he grew up in a christian home and his parents are christians, he does not need deliverance, and therefore does not need to learn aggressive praying.
