       Will you renounce the heresy of reincarnation and every philosophy which denies the Divinity of the Lord Jesus Christ?

       Will you forgive everyone against whom you have held bitterness and resentments (this is not for their sakes, but for your sake  -  God will help you, if you are really willing)?

 

                Prayer

Dear heavenly Father,

I come to You in the Name of Jesus Christ.

I confess, that Jesus Christ came, born of a virgin, that He died on the cross in my place, that He shed His precious blood, so that all my sins could be washed away, and that I could be healed in body, soul and spirit.

I believe He rose from the dead on the third day and is seated at the right hand of God.

I confess all of my sins (name them!).

I specifically renounce all of the following involvements on my own part or my parents’ or ancestors’ part in respect of the occult (name every one of the involvements you marked or underlined in the above list!).

I specifically renounce these involvements in the Name of Jesus Christ.

I turn from them absolutely and renounce everything of the occult.

I forgive my parents, I honour my parents, and I renounce their sins and the sins of my ancestors.

Come into my heart, Lord Jesus, and fill me with Your Holy Spirit.

I believe, that I am redeemed, cleansed, sanctified and justified through the blood of Jesus Christ.

Thank You, Father, thank You, Lord Jesus, thank You, Holy Spirit.

Amen!
