SCRIPTURE READING: ACTS 16: 16-39

FOCUS: “One day, as we were going to the house of prayer, we encountered a young slave girl who had an evil spirit of divination, the spirit of Python. She had earned great profits for her owners by being a fortune-teller. ” (Acts 16: 16 TPT)

MEMORY VERSE: “In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.” (Isaiah 27: 1)

The damsel in our Focal Scripture was possessed with an evil spirit, which was described as the spirit of python. By this python spirit, she did her soothsaying and followed Paul and Silas for many days. By the python spirit, she tried to create an alignment with the work of God being done by Paul and Silas. By the python spirit, she wanted evil to work hand in hand with good. By the python spirit, she wanted to mix good with evil.

Friend, hear me as I hear the Lord: no power of hell will mix your good news with bad news. No power of darkness will cause whatever good thing that is in your life to be mixed with evil. Your mission will not be polluted by the powers of hell. Your assignment will not be diluted by the powers of darkness. No affliction will work hand in hand with your success and rising. No messenger of hell will move with you as you move.

The damsel possessed with that python spirit followed Paul and Silas for many days. So, put differently, the python spirit followed Paul and Silas for many days, before Paul commanded the evil spirit to get out. Reject every negativity that wants to attach itself to you. Reject every plan of hell that wants to be a part of your life. Reject every messenger of hell that wants to join in your journey. Refuse to have evil spirits follow you freely.

Today, I pray for you: any power of hell that is already part of your journey, I disconnect them from you. I terminate the reign of satanic powers over your assignment. I terminate the presence of satanic powers in your journey. I decree that your good news is forbidden to mix with bad news. I decree that the works of God in your life will not be mixed with the works of the enemy. I decree that no python spirit mixes with your spirit.

The reign of evil spirits around you, is over. I put every serpentine spirit around you to flight. The power of leviathan around you is broken.

DECLARATION:

  • My good will not be mixed with evil; every python spirit, break by fire, in Jesus’ name!
