Declaration: Put On The Armor of Light

Declaration: Put On The Armor of Light

Did you know that, besides the armor of God, we can also put on the armor of light to blind the enemy? Pastor Jeno Shaw joined me on my broadcast recently and talked about this topic based on Romans 13:12 & 14, and we did a declaration together. Read the scriptures below, and then declare it over yourself.

Scripture Reference

Romans 13:12, 14

The night [this present evil age] is almost gone and the day [of Christ’s return] is almost here. So let us fling away the works of darkness and put on the [full] armor of light … 14 But clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for [nor even think about gratifying] the flesh in regard to its improper desires.”

Declare Out Loud

“Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, according to Your Word in Romans 13:12 and 14, I fling away the works of darkness and put on the armor of light, in Jesus’ name, and I clothe myself with the Lord Jesus Christ. I am wearing Jesus today!”

Prayer and Declaration: Renouncing Ungodly Councils

Prayer and Declaration: Renouncing Ungodly Councils

During a recent broadcast, a viewer commented that they were praying that family members would renounce a Greek sorority that they were involved in. I advised them to stand in the gap for them and for the bloodline and renounce it by using the prayer on my site to renounce unholy, ungodly covenants using the word sorority in the place of Freemasonry or other similar groups.

Another viewer posted a follow-up comment stating that we should heed this because we are God’s children, so we will not be in the councils of men.

That’s right! We are in the council of God. We are in the council of the Lord Jesus Christ with the cloud of witnesses and the blood of Jesus Christ speaking on the mercy seat. 

Watch the video below, and then close your eyes and pray the following prayer with me:

 

Pray Out Loud

  • “Heavenly Father, Father God, in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, by the authority of Jesus Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit, by the blood of Jesus Christ speaking in Your heavenly courts for me and my household in the earth as it is in Heaven, by the intercession of King Jesus at Your right hand, Father God, in the Court of Heaven for me and for my household and my family, and for the cloud of witnesses witnessing in the Court of Heaven to the prayers and the council of King Jesus in the Court of Heaven on my behalf, I decree and declare that I am not in the councils of man. 


  • “I renounce the councils of man. I cancel anywhere where my name is and the names of my children in the councils of man and put it under the blood of Jesus Christ. I cancel, rebuke, and renounce any councils of man and any spiritual demonic councils. I renounce any councils of the demonic, and I decree and declare that my name, my life, my family bloodline, my children and my children’s children, my marriage, my business, my ministry, my finances, and my good name are redeemed out of the councils of man, out of the councils of the demonic, and into the hand of Jesus Christ, into the council of Almighty God. 

 

  • “By the blood of Jesus Christ, everything having to do with me – my life, my household, my children, my children’s children, my husband, my marriage, my ministry, my business, my land, my household, my finances, my family bloodline going all the way back to Adam and Eve – is now out of the council of man, out of the councils of the demonic and fully and completely in the council of Almighty God in the Court of Heaven. So be it! Let the blood of Jesus Christ confirm it, in Jesus’ mighty name!” 

I believe the Lord is bringing a word here that we need to renounce the councils of man and only receive the council of Almighty God, and that we are removed from every demonic council, in the spiritual or the natural. We are removed from every council of man, and we are only in the council of Almighty God. 

Close your eyes and think about this and visualize yourself standing before the council of Almighty God. Ask the Holy Spirit to open your spiritual eyes. 

  • “Thank you, Father. I am now standing in Your council, in Your heavenly court, before Your throne, before Your throne of grace. I see King Jesus advocating for me at Your right hand. I see the angels of the Lord with my books and the books of my family bloodline confirming that I am now in the council of Almighty God. I see the blood of Jesus Christ on the mercy seat speaking for me. It is my council advocating for me in this heavenly court. I see the blood of Jesus Christ erasing every council of man, erasing every council of the demonic. I’ve been redeemed out of the council of man. I’ve been redeemed out of the council of the demonic – me and my household, me and my family bloodline – and we are now only in the council of Almighty God. I see it done! 


  • “I see the books reconciled in the Court of Heaven. Thank You, Father God. Thank You, Holy Spirit. I see the cloud of witnesses witnessing on my behalf before the council of Almighty God, by the blood of Jesus that speaks for me. I see it done. 


  • “Father God, I ask for Your council to speak on my behalf, by the power of the blood of Jesus, by the power of the Holy Spirit, by Your faithfulness, Father God, to perform Your word because Psalm 92 says I am rooted in Your courts. I am rooted in Your council, Father God, forever, and no man and no demonic entity can take that from me or my family or my household. 


  • “Today is the day of great and mighty victory, for I’ve been set free from the councils of man. I’ve been set free from the councils of the demonic. Everything having to do with me has been set free from the councils of man. Everything having to do with me has been set free from the councils of the demonic, for I am only in the council of Almighty God. The glory of God is my covering, and the favor of God surrounds me as a shield. The blood of Jesus Christ witnesses for me, the cloud of witnesses witness for me, Jesus Christ advocates for me, and I have victory. 


  • “Everything that the councils of man or the councils of the demonic have tried to do to me are canceled. Their assignments are canceled now. Their demons are canceled, in the name of Jesus Christ.” 


  • “Father God, I ask for Your angel armies and your angels on assignment to be dispatched for me and my household and my family line by what is written by Your council, and I receive what is written by Your council, Father God, on my behalf and on behalf of my household and my family, in the name of Jesus Christ.”

And as we close our eyes and thank Father God, we know the council of Almighty God speaks in our favor because of the blood of Jesus Christ speaking for us and Jesus Christ advocating and counseling for us and the Holy Spirit counseling for us in the Court of Heaven and our cloud of witnesses witnessing for us. It is done. So be it, in Jesus Christ’s name. Hallelujah!

Prayer To Burn Up The Foxes For The Prodigals

Prayer To Burn Up The Foxes For The Prodigals

I was reading a letter during our Wednesday mail call segment of a recent broadcast from someone who sent in an offering from her home church along with a list of names of prodigals they were praying for. The amount of the check was for $289.00. As I was seeking the Lord on this, Holy Spirit led me to look up the meaning of 300. As He began unfolding it, He gave me a new prayer to add to our prayers for prodigals. Below are the notes as He was leading me, followed by the prayer.

The number 300 is recorded 62 times in 61 King James Bible verses.

Ooooh, now I know why He led me to this number! Samson, by himself, killed 300 foxes and set their tails on fire. Those foxes then ran into the Philistine farmland and destroyed the Philistines. 

What is causing your children to go prodigal? The foxes – the spiritual foxes. A spiritual fox is an evil spirit or an evil influence around a prodigal that is coming against and trying to devour the fruit of the Holy Spirit in their life.

Foxes in the Bible are bad. Foxes spoil the early fruit. It’s the little foxes that spoil the vine, that eat the tender grapes. (Song of Solomon 2:15)

So foxes represent an evil spirit around your children, through evil influences, that are trying to devour the fruit of the Holy Spirit in them. 

Jesus called Herod a fox because Herod was coming against the fruit of the Holy Spirit and  what He was trying to teach. 

How do you get rid of the foxes? I have two prayers to do that on my prodigal prayers. You ask Father for the hunter and trapper angels to come in all around your children and all around the prodigals to go on a search-and-destroy mission and trap the spiritual foxes and remove them.

But the Lord is showing me to put another prayer together. He’s revealing something here. He’s saying to set those foxes on fire and destroy their wicked fruit. God will bring His holy fire and catch the spiritual, demonic foxes in the lives of the prodigals on fire, and those foxes will flee and destroy the wicked fruit.

Samson, angry at the father of the Philistine woman he married who gave her to someone else (Judges 15:1-2), decides to get revenge. He catches 300 foxes, and then in pairs, ties their tails, along with a small torch, together with a cord. Then he lets them loose among the Philistine farmland. This causes, not only the recently harvested crops, but also that which was yet to be harvested to be consumed by fire (Judges 15:5). https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/300.html 

So we can ask Father God to take revenge on the enemy and the enemy’s agenda against our children that has caused them to go prodigal – to destroy the enemy’s fields and their foxes with fire. 

Enoch, representing the seventh generation of patriarch on the earth, was 65 years old when he gave birth to his firstborn son Methuselah (Genesis 5:21). Scripture states he walked with God another 300 years after this event until he was taken to another location on the earth (verses 22-24). https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/300.html 

I was listening to Tracy Byrd’s song “Walking to Jerusalem” this morning. In the song he says, “Walking with Methuselah.” Confirmation! This is all about praying that we walk with God in our lives and that our children walk with like Enoch and have long blessed lives. 

Number 300 plays a role in the reconciliation of Joseph with his brothers … https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/300.html 

Wow, reconciling us back to Jesus – because Joseph with his brothers is about us being reconciled back to Christ. How beautiful.

Gideon’s army was 300 – knowing that God will destroy the enemies, so just shine your light, blow the trumpet, and be faithful – Gideon’s victory.

Solomon – the number 300 is related to Solomon’s incredible wealth.
