In the first part of this series, we talked about how every spiritual place is tied to an altar — either Godly or satanic — and how these altars can affect your life in powerful ways. Now, let’s go even deeper. You’ll see how altars can secretly influence your destiny and learn how to protect yourself so you don’t fall into traps that look harmless on the surface. The Hidden Power of Altars Over Your Life Altars are not just physical places or objects. They are spiritual gateways. Once your name or issue is placed on an altar, that altar begins to speak over your life. If it is a Godly altar, it releases blessings, favor, and open doors. If it is a dark altar, it can release setbacks, strange battles, and long seasons of hardship. This is why some people’s problems seem to repeat no matter how hard they work. They are fighting unseen agreements tied to evil altars. How You Might Have Connected to a Wrong Altar Without Knowing 1. By visiting certain false prophets or healers who opera...

Heavenly Father, I come before You today, not with pride, but with a heart humbled and broken. I come as a prodigal son/daughter, who once walked away, listened to voices that were not Yours, and trusted paths that led to pain and deception. Lord, I acknowledge my sins, my rebellion, and my ignorance. I confess every time I allowed fear, doubt, or false guidance to separate me from Your perfect will. I was blind, but now I see. I was lost, but now I long to be found fully in You. Father, have mercy on me. Cleanse me from all unrighteousness. Wash me with the blood of Jesus Christ and make me whole again. I renounce every alliance I made outside of Your will. I break every soul tie, every lie, every deception, and every agreement I made with darkness, knowingly or unknowingly. I return to You with my whole heart. I lay down my burdens, my shame, my regrets, and my brokenness at Your feet. I surrender fully—my thoughts, my desires, my plans, my identity—back into Your hands. Abba Father,...

“Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” – Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV) Sometimes life gets so loud, it drowns out the whisper of God’s promises. We find ourselves stuck in storms that seem endless, facing situations that challenge our faith to its core. And yet, in the middle of our brokenness, the Lord is still calling us to call on Him. Have you ever sat in silence and whispered: “Lord, I want to believe. But right now, it's hard.” “Open my eyes, God. I want to see beyond the chaos around me.” If you have, you’re not alone. Many of us have stood in the tension between what we feel and what we hope for. We say we trust God, but some days the weight feels unbearable. We say we want to fly, to be free, to live with joy and purpose, but deep down we feel like no one ever taught us how. You Are Not Forgotten Jeremiah 33:3 is not just a verse. It’s an invitation. Listen, God doesn’t just sit back and watch us suffer. He says, "Call to ...

In a world filled with distractions, confusion, and chaos, the voice of Jesus continues to call out—softly but clearly: "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near" (Matthew 4:17). This call is not just for a select few; it is for all humanity. It is a call of love, urgency, and eternal significance. Time Is Not Promised  We delay change, postpone forgiveness, and make excuses for our spiritual apathy. But the truth is, none of us are promised tomorrow. Life is fragile. The news headlines, rising violence, natural disasters, and growing moral decay all echo a sobering truth: we are living in the last days. Jesus warned that in the end times, there would be signs—earthquakes, famines, wars, and the love of many growing cold (Matthew 24). We see these signs unfolding before our eyes. They're not meant to scare us, but to awaken us. The Urgent Call to Repentance Repentance isn’t just about feeling guilty. It’s about recognizing that we have strayed from God’s perfect pa...

In our journey of sharing people’s real-life experiences with spiritual battles, today’s testimony stands out. It’s a story that might sound strange to some, yet for many it resonates deeply—especially those who’ve ever felt like unseen eyes were always watching them. How God Revealed That Not Every Bird Is Ordinary She never imagined that birds—common creatures that most people barely notice—could carry such spiritual weight. Like many, she loved the sound of birds chirping in the morning, and thought of them as harmless parts of nature. But God, in His mercy, began to open her eyes. It started with dreams and visions. Repeatedly, she would see certain birds, especially crows and vultures, appearing in unsettling ways. Sometimes they hovered over her head, sometimes they followed her wherever she went. Even in the natural, it became almost impossible to ignore. Whether she was traveling to another town or simply stepping out of her house, crows seemed to always appear, lingering on po...

Have you ever felt like something precious was stolen from you—your purpose, your dreams, or even your sense of direction in life? Many people go through seasons where they feel lost, stuck, or unable to step into the future they desire. If you’ve been struggling to recover your destiny, there are often deeper reasons behind it. Let’s explore some spiritual and practical factors that might be making it hard for you to walk in your true calling, especially looking at the role of covenants and agreements. 1. Unresolved Spiritual Covenants and Agreements One major reason people struggle to recover their destiny is because of unseen spiritual agreements or covenants, knowingly or unknowingly entered into. These can include: Family covenants: Sometimes ancestors made pacts for protection, wealth, or power that now affect future generations. Personal agreements: Visiting spiritual practitioners, taking part in certain rituals, or even careless words (“I’ll never succeed”) can create spiritu...
