The Rules of Engagement

The Rules of Engagement

False expectations counterattack Pray according to Psalm 20:7: “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God” (niv). You are a God of cove nant, and every promise in You is yes and amen. Therefore, I place my hope and faith in You and You alone. Thank You for bringing people into my life whose words and promise I can depend on. False impressions counterattack Pray the following prayer: In the name of Jesus, I obliterate, annihilate, and prohibit satanic impressions, illusions, projections, perceptions, suggestions, suspi cions, and deceptions set up as a decoy or an ambush to my soul and those assigned to pray with me, for me, and on behalf of me, those who work with me, are assigned to me, and interact with me daily. Amen. (See 1 Kings 22:5–40; Acts 13:50; 2 Thessalonians 2:1–10.) Family eccentricities and idiosyncrasies counterattack Pray: I decree and declare that, by the anointing, covenants, contracts, chains, fetters, bondages, proclivities, and captivities that are contrary to, oppose, or hinder the fulfillment of God’s original plan and purpose, are broken. I am liberated from soul ties and generational, satanic, and demonic alliances, allegiances, and curses or spirits of inheritance. I sever them by the blood and by the Spirit. I speak to my DNA and declare that I am free from any and all influences passed down from one generation to another, biologically, socially, emotionally, physiologically, psycho logically, spiritually, or by any other channel unknown to me but known to God. I resist every spirit that acts as a doorkeeper to my soul and renounce any further conscious or unconscious alliance, association, allegiance, or covenant. I open myself to divine deliverance. Father, have Your way now! Perfect those things concerning me. Amen. (See Deuteronomy 5:9; 7:8–9; Ecclesiastes 7:26; Isaiah 61:1; Acts 8:9–13; Galatians 5:1; 1 Thessalonians 5:23–24; 2 Timothy 2:25.)
