MARCH – Week 3 and Week 4
REPENTANCE: PERSONAL & FAMILY
Proverbs 27:4
“Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?”
- I repent for all personal and generational rebellion, stubbornness, and disobedience that have contributed to witchcraft in my life and in my generational line.
- I repent for all envy and jealousy of others – their intellects, physiques, and personalities.
- I repent for any worship of myself and any need of personal recognition.
- Father, Your word describes jealousy as worse than cruelty and overwhelming fury. Father, remove from me and my household any of the components of jealousy, or the covetousness, hatred, fear and insecurity that fuel it.
- I renounce all jealousy, fear and insecurity, and pray You will uncover any of the root causes in my past that would keep me walking in unholy jealousy towards others. I want to be holy as YOU are Holy, Father. Remove from my heart all cruelty and any murderous attitudes that accompany jealousy.
- I repent for myself and for those in my generational line who have not guarded the gates of the spiritual and physical senses.
- I repent for choosing my will above the will of the Lord.
- I choose to owe no one anything, but to love one another.
- I choose to cast off the work of darkness and to put on the armor of Light, the Lord Jesus Christ, and to make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lust.
- I choose to walk only according to the grace and anointing God has given to me.
- I choose to walk in unity with my brothers and sisters in the Lord.
- I choose to follow Christ, living a life of love, preferring others above myself.
- I choose to yield and surrender my personal rights, so that I might serve the Lord wholeheartedly.
- I choose to be devoted to one another in brotherly love and to honor one another above myself. I will never be lacking in zeal, but will keep my spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. I will be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer. I will share with God’s people who are in need. I will practice hospitality. I will bless those who persecute me. I will rejoice with those who rejoice and will mourn with those who mourn. I will live in harmony with other believers. I will not be proud, but I will associate with people of low position. I will not be conceited. I will not repay evil for evil. I will have regard for good things in the sight of all men. I will live at peace with everyone. I will not take revenge on others.
- Lord, please now remove all ungodly spiritual beings and devices that have been empowered by my idolatry, rebellion, and jealousy; and the idolatry, rebellion, and jealousy of my ancestors.
- Lord, please disconnect me from any evil network and I break all ungodly ties between the abode of the enemy and myself.
- Lord, please break the cords of death that entangle me, the torrents of destruction that overwhelm me, the cords of Sheol that are coiled around me, and the snares of death that confront me. (Psalm 18:4-5)
- Lord, I now take back any godly anointing, authority, finances, strength and health given away and perverted because of my sin and my ancestors’ sin.
- I repent also for lack of obedience to You and Your Word. Teach me to recognize Your voice, lead me and guide me so my actions can reflect my faith. Prompt me to be a doer of Your Word and not just a reader. I command all striving, pride, self, perfectionism and everything else to do with ‘dead works’ to leave me immediately in the name of Jesus Christ.
- Forgive me, for I have allowed the slumbering spirit to block true revelation and understanding of Your word and practices. Lord, please open the eyes of my heart and impart a discernment and perception to ‘see’ and ‘hear’ You. I pray that You would also show me the simplicity of Your word as it was originally intended.
- In the name of Jesus Christ, I destroy all access points that have enabled the slumbering spirit to come. I command all demons of unbelief, rebellion, stubbornness, disobedience, deception, pride, striving, slumber, tiredness, procrastination, confusion, mind blocking, deafness and dumbness to leave immediately in the name of Jesus Christ.
- I hold on to Hebrews 4:12 – For the Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Teach me to allow your Word to judge my thoughts and the intentions of my heart.
- I speak to my eyes and ears and declare Matthew 13:16: ‘Blessed are my eyes for they see, and blessed are my ears for they hear’. I declare Ephesians 1:17-18: ‘That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to me the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of my understanding being enlightened.’ I release myself to partner with life, vigor, energy and enthusiasm with God, in Jesus’ Name.
- Heavenly Father, I repent for hiding my light. I repent that even though I knew You, I denied You before men. I ask that Your light will shine in me greater than before, and that people will see that light and I can become a great witness for You. I command all shame, fear, (fear of rejection, fear of confrontation, fear of slander) and ridicule and all other demons associated with hiding my light to leave right now, in the Name of Jesus Christ.
- Father God, in Jesus’ Name, I repent that I have not been offended or grieved by the things that offend You. There are things I have just accepted and made them acceptable when they are not. What is unacceptable in Your sight is clearly not the same according to my understanding or that of the world.
- I ask that You would show Me clearly what offends or grieves You.
- I repent, Father God, for all the times I have put conditions on You. I repent for using conditions as a promise to serve you. I will serve You simply because I love you and I want to do the will of God.
- I repent for my unbelief. If You have spoken to me and I have not discerned You, or if I have disobeyed You, I am sorry. I pray to You Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and ask You to come close to me so I can hear You and hear Your commands so I can obey You. In the Name of Jesus Christ, I command doubt, confusion and unbelief to leave immediately.”
LORD, PLEASE SET ME AS A SEAL UPON YOUR HEART, AND AS A SEAL UPON YOUR ARM, FOR YOUR LOVE IS STRONGER THAN DEATH.
I DECLARE THAT THE LORD, JESUS CHRIST, IS THE LORD OVER ALL. AMEN.
