Many people come to On The Cross Ministry feeling spiritually attacked, tormented or unable to move forward. They may experience intrusive thoughts, disturbing dreams, fear, hypervigilance, repeated family patterns or a constant sense that something is working against them.
Within a Christian framework, prayer is an important part of responding to these experiences. However, the purpose of prayer is not to make us increasingly afraid or preoccupied with darkness. It is to bring us back into truth, peace, freedom and confidence in the finished work of Jesus Christ. When we do deliverance we bring everything before the Courts of Heaven to break these rights off. The attacks are able to come often because they have legal rights. It isn’t always necessary but Jesus is always pleased with us when we go through the official channels and follow His process.
1. Generational witchcraft
If you have always come against witchcraft in some capacity then the chances you have a generational witchcraft and alter is certain. You must repent for the sins of your ancestors, for the shedding of innocent blood, rituals, agreements with satan and anything else known or unknown. Destroying any alters
Ezekiel 18:20 teaches that children do not carry their parents’ personal guilt. However, people can still be affected by the consequences, habits and beliefs passed through a family.
2. Active Alter
The enemy have a good way of hiding/making you forget the time the spell was established but when you ask Holy Spirit , He will reveal a lot especially if you are asking for revelation. This may be found in wicked acquaintances, family members or situations. When this is revealed repent and come out of agreements with the people involved, situations and basically reverse everything that happened using the blood of Jesus to make these situations have no power. Ensure your heart posture is good ensuring that you work through any unforgiveness and cancel all soul ties, soul contracts and assignments that has been established in the spirit in Jesus name. You don’t need to confront people knowing is enough and in some cases some people don’t even know they are doing this level of wickedness through their thoughts.
3. Principalities
The areas you are in as well as any other place you have lived in may also have influence to the amount of witchcraft you experience. I will go through this as a separate blog so you have a deeper understanding and knowing how to pray. But ensure you have disconnected yourself from any and all principalities and invite the Heavenly Principalities.
4. Pay attention to your own words and agreements
Our words matter. When we understand this not only do we understand the power of our prayer we understand the power of witchcraft. This does not mean every negative sentence magically creates a curse. It means our repeated words can strengthen the beliefs and expectations by which we live.
5. Healing your fragmented soul
Jesus heals the broken hearted and crushed in spirit. When you are fragmented due to trauma either caused by witchcraft or used by witchcraft these emotional imprints are a landing pad for demonic assignment. If you don’t go deep enough with your healing you will struggle to break free because the emotional pain really needs to be addressed.
People who have lived through prolonged trauma may feel as though parts of their life, identity or memory remain trapped in previous experiences. They may know this or not know but the willingness to see these parts will give space for them to be revealed.
Signs that there is a trauma fragments playing out in your :
- Frozen at a particular age
- Disconnected from parts of their story
- Emotionally numb
- Overwhelmed by memories
- Unable to understand sudden reactions
- Part of you still might feel like you are living in the danger
- Some people describe these experiences as lost or imprisoned “fragments.” In trauma-informed language, they may also involve dissociation or parts of the personality holding different memories, emotions or protective roles.
6. Nervous System Response
If someone has felt tormented or unsafe for much of their life, their nervous system may remain on high alert. These will feel like attacks and may look like this:
- Hypervigilance
- Constant scanning for danger
- Panic
- Difficulty sleeping
- Freezing
- Shutting down
- Emotional numbness
- Sudden fear responses
- Difficulty trusting
- Feeling unsafe even in peaceful surroundings
These reactions do not automatically prove that an active spiritual attack is occurring. They may be the body’s learned response to prolonged fear and trauma. Once you have broken through the witchcraft you may need to find ways to regulate your nervous system.
7. Witchcraft Dreams
The easiest way to deal with witchcraft dreams is to cancel all agreements as soon as you wake up as well as repenting. The reason being you can operate in blind witchhcraft. This is why repenting all the time is important as you don’t know when and where you may have come into agreement with the kingdom of darkness.
8. The most important of all of these tips
One of the most powerful ways fear keeps a person stuck is by persuading them that they are never truly free. As soon as you have prayed you may feel like there are reestablishing themselves in the spirit. When you sit on the truth that you are free and you have done the key areas that are necessary for breaking off witchcraft. They only need your agreement to establish it again.
A person may pray repeatedly but then spend every day thinking:
- “It did not work.”
- “The enemy is still stronger.”
- “Something must still have access to me.”
- “I need another prayer before I can live.”
- “I cannot move forward until I identify every hidden root.”
- “I will always be under attack.”
This can create a cycle in which the person becomes more focused on detecting darkness than living in the freedom, responsibility and identity Jesus offers. Mindset and agreement matter. The freedom of Christ does not mean you will never have another fearful thought, nightmare, temptation or difficult day. It means these experiences do not have to determine your identity, choices or future
