Download or read book Destroying the Works of Witchcraft Through Fasting and Prayer written by Ruth Brown and published by Impact Christian Books Incorporated. This book was released on 1994-12-01 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many forms of witchcraft. In some cases, it involves conjuring up demons from hell and dispatching them to churches or individuals to cause envy, strife, and confusion. Spirits of delusion (which will cause a false belief or opinion, meant to mislead; deceive or trick) are a strong tool used in witchcraft. I've found in my fifteen years of ministry, that a spirit of delusion can destroy a marriage. For example, it will cause suspicion and false accusations to be made by one spouse against the other. In the church, divisions between Pastors and members can result when this spirit is loosed to attack the pastor. Many pastors have been hurt, deceived, misused and had their churches split as a result. God gave me the assignment to write this book to enlighten the Church on the operation of witchcraft, so the body of Christ would not have to suffer these attacks any longer. We have the power through Christ Jesus to destroy these works and to stop them. If one can put a thousand to flight, and two can put ten thousand to flight, just think what the whole body of Christ can do.

A Book of Pagan Prayer provides the pagan community a comprehensive and thoughtful selection of prayers - and shows readers how they too can create their own.

He explains how to prepare for and compose prayers, how to address and honor the deities, and how to conclude a prayer. Serith also answers important questions, such as: Why should pagans pray? Should prayers be spontaneous? What are offerings about? Is all this just trying to buy the gods off? Gathered from many traditions - including Celtic, Germanic, Egyptian, Greek, and Zoroastrian - this guide includes nearly 500 sample prayers organized by purpose: for the family and household; times of the day, month, and year; life passages; thanksgiving, grace, and petition; as well as litanies and mantras. Whether offering a blessing, celebrating new life, safeguarding travel, or honoring the seasons, readers will discover timeless pagan prayers for worship, spiritual connection, and personal relationship with the gods.
