Welcome and Invoking God's Power

The Word says in Psalms 88 and 2, Let my prayer come before thee. Incline thine ear unto my cry. Welcome to Focus Prayer with G. Craig Lewis. Well, we'll begin to pray. If you want to kneel down or bow your heads, whatever position you want to be in, we're going to pray tonight. We're going to be dealing with spiritual wickedness in this prayer. Trusting God and believing in our, in the true and living God. Keeping him in his place of greatness.

And just believing that this time is the time for God to shine. And to shine through us. So we'll go ahead and begin. Father God in Jesus name. We recognize how powerful you are. We recognize who you are. We recognize that you are the creator of all things. You are above us. You are above all things. You are all powerful and all power lies in you. There is no power in our world, in our universe, in existence that did not originate with you.

power that is being used is only borrowed from you. God, you are the originator of all power. So we recognize that tonight and we believe that you are all powerful. We serve. most powerful, most high God, the most high entity in existence, the only true deity, three in one, the Father, Son, Holy Ghost, blessed Trinity. We serve you and we

We know that you are all powerful and we count on your power in this hour, in this time more than ever before. Your awesomeness, your greatness, you are powerful. Ephesians 3 and 20 says now unto him that is able to do exceedingly above exceeding abundantly all that we ask or think according to the power that worketh in us. So that power makes.

You exceeding abundantly above everything. And that power, that same power works within us. So we recognize that tonight, knowing that the things that we ask for, the things that we believe for, the things that we have faith for.

Thanksgiving and Confession of Sins

You are able to do because you are all powerful. We come before you with thanksgiving, just giving you thanks for all that you've done so far. Wonderful, powerful things that you have done for us all. just being God, just being there, never letting us down, always keeping your word, being God that is not a man, but just being the great creator. We thank you. We thank you.

for all the wonderful things you've blessed us with. Even in times when they seem tough, they're not as tough as they could be. Even in times where we feel down, feel low, feel lack, we know that. It is only temporary because you are a God that supplies all of our needs according to your riches and glory. So we come before you right now thanking you for who you are and thanking you for what you've done.

for it. Every time that you've given to us, every time that you've been mindful of us, every time that you've thought of us, every time, Father God, that you've been there for us, we thank you for it. And we give you thanks right now because only you deserve the credit for it. Only you deserve the honor for it. Only you deserve the praise for it.

Psalms 104 says, enter into his gates with thanksgiving. So we come into your gates today, spiritually, with thanksgiving in our hearts. Thank you. Just thank you. No, we haven't. May not have thanked you enough. We may have neglected to thank you. We may just not have made the time that we should have to thank you. So today, right now, we give you that thanks. We give you thanks and we enter into your courts.

praise and we're thankful unto you and right now we bless your name your wonderful name the name that is above every name and we ask for forgiveness for all of our sins anything that we I've done wrong. Father God, we just ask for forgiveness. We in our humanness have done things out of habit. I've done things out of issues. I've done things out of trauma. I've done things, Father God, that were just not pleasing of you.

But we thank you, Lord, for forgiving us and for allowing us to come to you, even as flawed human beings, to get forgiveness for our sins. We ask that you forgive us. God, we don't want to frustrate your grace and take your grace lightly and just do things because we know you'll forgive us. But we do know that you will forgive us because your word said you will. So we ask for forgiveness right now.

what it is, no matter what we've done, even things that we've done that we're not aware of, things that we've done to people that we aren't aware of. Father God, we ask for forgiveness of all of our sins right now. First John 1 and 9 says, if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. So Father God, help us to stay in that posture of confessing our sins to you.

Father God, we want to make that confession to you and be cleansed by you because only you can remove our sins. Only you paid the price for us on Calvary's cross. Only you, Father God, can. cleanse us from all unrighteousness so as we confess our sins to you we ask that you forgive us in Jesus name and we come to you in faith believing that you hear us

Faith in Prayer and Fearless Living

that you are great you are awesome you are the great creator but we also believe that you can hear us that you are mindful of us that you think about us that you care about us that you love your creator. Father God, there's no way that the enemy, that the devil and that the host of heaven that fail, there's no way that they would try this hard every day, all day, every day to destroy us.

come after us and to hinder us. There's no way they would do that if they did not know how much you love us. If they did not know how much you care for us and how mindful you are of us, how we are your precious creation. So, God, we thank you and we come to you in faith, believing that you hear us, that you've given us the vehicle of prayer to commune with you and talk to you and you hear us. And not only do you.

hear us but you do things for us father god you provide for us you protect us you are our priest our high priest you give us the things that we need because you hear us and you care for us So, Father, we thank you, Lord, and we come in faith today, believing that this prayer is relevant. We believe that this prayer is effective. We believe, Father God, this prayer is potent.

Father God, we believe that because we elect to pray, things will happen in the natural and the spiritual realm because you hear us and it is activated by our faith. Mark 11 and 24, therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire, pray when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. We stand on Mark 11 and 24. Right now, we stand on that, believe in what we desire and what we pray. We will receive because you said we will have in Jesus name.

And Father, we are not afraid of things to come. We are not afraid of what lies ahead. We're not afraid of this next chapter in our world's history. We're not afraid of the end times. We're not afraid of... the revelations of john we're not afraid father god of the uh powers that are uh in effect right now we're not afraid father god of all that we're seeing we're not afraid of what the media is trying to show us

We're not afraid, Father God, of the government, of political powers, the uprising, the racial tension and all of the civil unrest. We're not afraid of any of those things, God. You have not given us. the spirit of fear. And the main reason we're not afraid is because we serve the answer. You are the answer. We serve the answer for the world.

We serve, Father God, the solution. We serve, Father God, the one who has shown us through prophecy, through your word, what is going to occur and that we win in the end. So we do not have the spirit of fear. Your word says that you have not given that spirit to us. So we don't receive that spirit because you have not given us that we don't receive it, but we have.

Power, love, and a sound mind. So we pray right now that your power be activated in this hour to keep us, Father God, standing on truth. We pray for your love, even though the world may persecute us, the world may... dislike us the world may come at us we we want to exemplify your love in those situations and father god keep our minds sound father god no matter what's happening out there no matter what they're doing keep us sound

Father God, no matter what we see, no matter what they try to show us, no matter how they try to deceive us, the strong delusion that is spreading throughout our world, God, keep our minds sound. Father God, keep our minds sound, Father, so we will hear you, feel you, know you. We will read the word and understand you to our best ability, the best of our ability. Father God. Help us keep our minds sound, Father God. In Jesus' name.

Protection from Demonic Commands

And we're going to go into this next part, really the warfare part. This is real warfare, but this is what is necessary, I believe, for this hour. So we're going to definitely pray against. These spirits and different things that the Bible talks about in Ephesians, principalities and powers, rulers of darkness, spiritual wickedness and high places. These are the things that we're going to call down and speak against.

right now so we pray against every high demonic chain of command right now that controls and is manipulating things around us and within us We pray against it right now. Every high demonic chain of command, the whole army of the enemy that is controlling and manipulating things around us. within us so wherever his hand is whatever his plan was whatever it was that is working around us and trying to operate within us we pray against it right now and when we pray against that means

We are standing against, we denounce, and we are using the power of God, power of God against it right now. We are covered by the promise of God to have warring angels around us for protection. So we call. on the angels of God to continue to protect us, stand around us during this time that no violence, that no hatred, none of these things will even penetrate the angels guard of us right now in this hour.

And though it may surround us, though things may be manipulated around us, they won't be able to stop us. But we will stand in this hour covered by God's. His word said in Psalms 91 and 11, for he shall give his angels charge over thee to keep thee. in all thy ways. So we pray right now, Father God, dispatch those angels. Let them stand guard around this church.

around our homes, around our families, whether we leave the house when we're driving in our cars. Let the angels of protection encamp around us right now, Father God. All of the violence, all of the... things that are going on in our world father god let us be protected so matter no matter where we journey no matter where we go father god keep us protected in jesus name

Protected from the high demonic chain of command. The organization of the enemy that is trying to control this world and manipulating things. Father God, he has no control. Over us. But our control comes from you God. We are under you. And we rest under your power. And in the shadow of your wing. According to Psalms. So Father God.

Dismissing Demonic Agents and Afflictions

Keep your angels and let them have charge over us and keep us in our ways. We pray against every demonic agent and power that was sent by the devil to afflict us and cause havoc upon us. God, we stand right now on your power, with your power against every demonic agent.

every power that was sent by the devil to afflict us. The one that had our name on it because he knew that we would be your servant. He knew that we would serve you. We would spread the gospel. He knew that we would help others come out. Out of this time. So Father God. He has targeted us. He has placed a target upon us. But it doesn't matter. Because we speak against it right now.

Every demonic agent, every person, every spirit, every foul spirit, every agent of the enemy and his power that was sent by the devil to afflict us and to cause havoc upon us. We use the authority of God right now. to expose that agent, whoever it is, whatever it is. Show us what it is. Show us who it is, God. And we dismiss the enemy's afflictions and chaos from our lives. So show it to us, Father God, so that it can be.

addressed whatever it is father god whatever is being used whoever is being used father god show us So that we can rid ourselves of it and dismiss the enemy's afflictions and chaos from our lives. So that our lives, Father God, will function in the manner that you would have it to function. We will not be afflicted, but Father God, we will have victory in this hour. Psalms 34, 19, many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivereth him out of the world.

them all. We rest on that right now God though we may face many afflictions you will deliver us out of them all Father God. The enemy cannot kill us. The enemy cannot stop us. Father God, your divine sovereignty prevents that. Father God, so though we may go through afflictions, Father God, you are our deliverer and you deliver us out of. them all. We depend on that. We trust in that. Father God, we believe in it. In Jesus name.

Overcoming Weakness and Past Failures

And Father, we pray against every targeted area of failure, weakness, and vulnerability that the enemy is using against us. So Father God, all of us. childhood trauma, all of the issues. Father, all the things that we got into, all the things that we have done. Father God, I pray right now against the enemy targeting those areas and using those areas in this hour. Father God, to attack our esteem, to attack our stand, to make us feel we are not worthy of...

Father God, we pray right now against all of those targeted areas of failure, weakness, and vulnerability. Father God, we have all had struggles. We have all failed. We have all done wrong. But Father God, we acknowledge and repent of all of our issues and we cover them with Christ's blood as protection from the devil's accusations.

You said that as far as the east is from the west are our sins and iniquities removed from us. You don't remember them. So, Father, we will not let the enemy bring them up. We will not let the enemy bring up failure. weakness or vulnerability we will not let him target those things but father god we will stand on what your son jesus did on calvary because of that event

We are new creations. Because of that event, we can stand boldly and speak against the power of the enemy because of what you did for us. We have power in this hour against failure, weakness, and vulnerability. Father God, the enemy can't use anything against us. He has no power over us. But it is your power that governs us, God. It is your power that keeps us. And it is your power that protects us from his accusations. 2 Corinthians 12 and 9 says, And he said unto me,

My grace is sufficient for thee, for my strength is made perfect in weakness. So we pray right now for your strength. Even some of us, Father God, that are fearful, that are... that are afraid of things to come because we don't know what's going to come. Just afraid of the unknown. Whatever the situation is, in our weakness, God, make us strong. You said your grace is sufficient for it. So God, make us strong.

Be strong in our weakness, Lord. And most gladly, therefore, will I rather glory in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me. So, God, we recognize that we are weak. We recognize that we are human. But God, your power can rest upon us. Your power can make the difference. Your power, Father God, is what we rely on to fight the enemy.

So we, Father God, will not be targeted by the enemy for any of our failures, anything that has happened to us in the past. But Father God, we're going to stand on who we are today and who you've made us. by washing us and regenerating us and making us new creations. In Jesus' name.

Thwarting Wicked Elite Plans

And Father God, we pray against rulers of darkness of this world. We pray against the wickedness of the elite and those that use their wealth to finance wicked plans for... The devil, Father God, we stand against it right now. The love of money is the root of all evil. And we stand against those evil billionaires, Father God, the billionaire elite, Father God, that are using their finances to finance wicked.

plans for the devil God just to get more money from the enemy and just to hurt mankind for that money Father God we pray against their plans right now The earth is still yours and your power is above every wicked imagination of the elite. So, Father God, we know who's in charge. We know who reigns supreme. We know who is the creator of all.

money doesn't make them bigger than you. Their money doesn't make them greater than you. Your power is greater than them all. So Father, we pray against their wicked agendas right now. We pray, Father God, that you will thwart their plans, that you will hurt their plans. Father God, we pray with the power you've given us that their plans, Father God, will not harm us. 1 Corinthians 10 and 26, for the earth is the Lord's.

And the fullness thereof. This is your world, not theirs. This is your world, God. You created it and you put us in it as your ambassadors. So as your ambassadors, we're allowed to speak to you. I mean, speak. for you and we're also father god allowed to initiate your power in the earth. You've given us that power. So we speak with the power of the Holy Ghost right now against the wickedness of those men, against their wicked plans, against their selfish desires, Father God. We speak against

not in fear, but with faith, declaring it right now, Father God, that they are not more powerful than you. What you want to happen will happen. And we trust you in this hour.

Battling Spirits of Division and Racism

In Jesus name. And we pray against spirits that bring our world chaos and division. Those spirits that seek to cause racism and respect of. Father God, first we just repent if there's any of that in us that we've had respect of persons because of color or because of class or because of status. Father God, forgive us so that that won't be named.

Among us, Father God, we may have watched too much on the news or seen too much on social media and started feeling away like we're special as African-Americans or as Caucasians or as whatever, Father God. We just cast that spirit away right now, Father God, because we know that we can have no respect of persons and none of us are any better than any. Father God, it's just...

One blood. There's one blood among us all. So, Father, we pray against that right now. We pray against those spirits, Father God, that have come. to cause this racism, to cause this divide, to cause these respective persons. Father God, even in the church, to cause pastors to see their skin color more important than your word. Father God, outside of the church, to cause organizations. and men together, Father God, thinking that their race is superior.

Father God, we pray against all of those spirits because there are spirits behind that. There's spirits of chaos and there's spirits of division. So we come against that spirit right now. We come against those destructive spirits, Father God. ancient demons of chaos. Father God, from the Tower of Babel up until now, we speak against everyone.

of those ancient spirits Father God we speak against all the parallels of those spirits whether it's Nimrod or Shiva Father God or whoever it is we speak against all of those wicked demon mythological creatures Father God that they would not use mankind to do their bidding. But Father, we speak against it right now. All chaos, all division.

all racism, all respect to persons, and we take authority over the demon spirits of prejudice, pride, and privilege. Father God, we speak against all of those right now, Father God, prejudice, pride, and privilege. Privilege, God, that the homosexuals are using, that the African-Americans are using, that the white people are using. Whoever's using any of these, Father God, we speak against them right now. The accuser of the brother cannot war against the love.

against the love of God. So Father, we claim the love of God of all people. We claim the love of God of all colors, all creeds. Father God, let your love show through us so that we will not have respect of persons, so that we will not divide ourselves against people. But let your love for our fellow man shine through us, Father God.

Your word says, but James two and nine, but if you have respect to persons, you commit sin and are convinced of the law as transgressors. So we don't want to be sinners in this last hour. We don't want to be transgressors in this last hour. having respect of persons, but God, we see every creed of people as our brothers and sisters.

Father God, so we pray and not only just see them that way, but God, save them, Father God. Save all colors, save all creeds, save all people. Father God, let your power and your anointing be in the earth, Father God, to save. those that will be saved father god let your anointing flow through us to help those of whatever color whatever class whatever status whoever they are

Father God, from the CEO on Wall Street to the bum on the street, God, give us, Father God, an anointing in this hour to win them for you, Father God, before it's too late. Help us, Father God, to see.

Denouncing Internet and Social Media Influence

Men, as you see them, your beloved creation in Jesus name. And we pray against the demon spirits that control the Internet and social media. And CERN, we cast away every spirit that comes to entice, seduce and lead us away. from your perfect will for us through technology. So I pray right now, Father God, break the hold of social media. Break the stronghold of the internet. Father God, break that from us right now.

with deficits and low self-worth that are depending on likes and views and comments. Father God, Break that in the name of Jesus. We pray against all of those spirits, all of those dark spirits of the internet, social media, Father God, all the spirits that have been pulled through, through CERN and the... the inverted tower of Babel that they've created, Father God. We pray against all of those things so we won't be enticed. Father God, we won't be seduced and we won't be led away.

by what we've seen, by videos, by people speaking, by comments, by posts. Father God, don't let us be steered away from you in this hour, but we cast away all of those enticing spirits that have come through technology and dark matter, digital witchcraft, affectation, voodoo. The Yoruba and Santeria magic, dark followers and hashtag spells, and all web rulers are brought down in our lives right now by the power of the Holy Spirit.

ghosts, the ones we know about, the ones we don't know about, what is seen, what is unseen. Father God, We pull it down right now and cast it down out of our lives by the power of your Holy Ghost. We won't be led by it. We won't be enticed by it. We will not be influenced by the influences of the internet. But Father God, we will keep you as ours.

our influence and help us father to make up that time that we've spent on the internet in your word father God give us a hunger and thirst for your word again father God all the internet does is kill that So, Father God, I pray right now that that hunger and thirst after righteousness in your word will come upon your people right now as we denounce all of this magic and witchcraft and all of this.

dark matter and different things and dark followers father god and spells and and incantations all of these things as we denounce them god let us make it up with your word fill us with your word let us fill those voids Father God, some of us have grown attached to the phone and to the internet. God, I pray that we can have that.

And more with you God. More attachment. More love for your word. The need. The desire. The burning. The yearning. To know what you are saying in this hour. In Jesus name. 2 Corinthians 10 and 5, casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God. And that's all this technology is. It's just a high thing exalting itself. So Father God, cast it down.

all imaginations, every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of you and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ, Father God. The racing thoughts, the thoughts that are out of control, the thoughts that we can't even control, God, that our mind wandering and just all of those things, we bring those thoughts into captivity and we seize them with your words, Father God.

That your word, Father God, will cleanse us and purify us and cleanse our minds and our hearts to make room for your presence in Jesus' name.

Resisting One World Government

And God, we pray right now against spiritual wickedness in high places. We pray against the Luciferian powers that are setting up the one world governmental system.

under the devil's rule we know it is it's gonna happen because your word says it but we pray against those powers right now that they would not harm your people that they would not affect your people we are your people we are the sheep of your pasture father god so we pray with authority in the holy ghost against those powers that they will not harm us in this hour and we bind every plan and speak against every secret meeting.

Father, send warring angels to confuse their plans. Send spirits to divide their intentions. Allow their own selfishness to birth infighting that will sever their united fronts. Confuse their communications, God. And allow their pride and arrogance to hinder them. Father God, in the name of Jesus, we speak against them right now. As they try to cause chaos in the earth, let the chaos befall them.

Father God, in the name of Jesus, that their plans will not come nigh us. Father God, that we will be free from their intentions in this hour. We bind them. Every plan. Every meeting. Father God, that your spirits, Father God, your angels, your angels, your protecting angels, your warring angels, Father God, will go and confuse their plans and fight on our behalf.

Father God, we don't know what they're planning or what they're doing or what they're saying, but we know who you are. And we know you are in every place. We know that everything is in you. So we depend on you right now, Father God, and we speak against it. And we're not afraid of the Luciferian powers because that's just the devil and you are God. So whatever they're setting up, whatever they're doing, we serve the true and the living God that is above it all.

And we depend on you in this hour. Proverbs 16 and 18. Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. So, Father God, they are bound to fall. And we pray right now that their plans and their intentions.

Rejecting One World Religion

would fail. And we pray against the plan, Father God, of the Catholic, which means universal, the Catholic Church. Coexist unification of all beliefs. We pray against that plan right now. Father God, as it is trying to grow legs and materialize, Father God, we speak against coexist. right now. The truth of the gospel will stand and will not be compromised by your true believers in this hour. We stand against the Antichrist Pope and his wicked end time agenda right now.

Now we denounce the beast, the false prophet, and all parts of the Antichrist system and one world religion. Father God, there is only one religion, and that is the religion through Jesus Christ. the son of the true and living God. So we denounce all others. We will not join with all others. We will not be in agreement with all other beliefs. Father God, we cannot peacefully coexist with any other belief, any other way.

A person is a thief and a robber if he comes any other way. He must come through Jesus Christ. He is the way, the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father except... by him so we stand on your word we stand on the truth of the gospel right now and we pray against that plan We pray against the Catholic Church, the universal church, the coexist unification. Father God, all of those things that the world is trying to do, God, we stand against it as believers and we make our...

stand known Father God. We make our position known right now and we serve notice to all principalities and powers that we stand with the true and the living God in this hour and we will not be moved from it. We will not believe a lie. We will not believe strong delusion, but we will stand. on what the word says galatians 1 and 8 but though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which have been preached unto you let him be accursed

So we know the Catholic Church, the Coexist, all of those things are a curse. But Father God, you took the curse on the cross for us, you died for us, and we believe that you rose for us so that we could be united.

Standing Against New World Order

with you again. And we believe the gospel of Jesus Christ only. And we pray against the new world order and we refuse to come under the power or mindset of it. We pray right now, Father God, that any way this new world order is trying to infiltrate our hearts and our minds, we speak against it, and we just refuse it to come. into our minds and into our hearts. We refuse to come under the power of it. We speak against it, right?

Now, it is not of you, Father God, but it is of the enemy, the new order of the age, the new age movement. It's all of the devil, Father God. So we will not receive it. We pray right now that you would show us any part of it that is affecting us, any part, Father God, that we've adopted or accepted. Father God.

Loose it and take it away from us. Illuminate it so we can see it, Father God, so that we will not be deceived in this hour. And we will stand for truth and righteousness no matter what befalls us. We are protected by you, Lord, and your power is above all earthly and spiritual powers. So those that are manipulating the financial system, the healthcare system, the education system, the economic system, the legislative system, and all world systems, we take authority over their power right now.

Now, believing, Father God, that you hear us and you've given us authority in the earth, what we bind in the earth shall be bound in heaven, what we loose in earth. Shall be loosed in heaven. Father God. We're not just saying words. But we are initiating action. In the spirit realm. Through your Holy Ghost. And we will be victorious. In the name of Jesus, in this hour, we will have victory. We are not afraid, but we will be victorious in this hour, no matter what the world is trying to do.

God's Superior Power and Victory

Father God, you've given us power in this hour. First John four and four year of God, little children and have overcome them because greater is he that is in you. than he that is in the world. We stand on that. You are greater. than he that is in the world you are greater than the plans of the enemy you are greater than the new world order greater than the coexist movement the luciferian powers the one world government

the one world religion, whatever it is they're trying to formulate, you are greater. And we're going to stand for you in this hour. Because greater are you in us than he that is in the world. So we thank you for your greatness, God. We thank you for your power, God. We thank you for your authority, God. We thank you for giving us your power to use in this world. And we give you glory and honor in this hour. In Jesus' name. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Worship and God's Everlasting Truth

Our God is so great. Yes, he is. His name is high above everything. We worship you, oh God. We worship the God that's greater. The God that's stronger. His name is high above every name. You're greater, you're greater. You're greater than every fear, Lord, you are. You're greater than what we see, Jesus. than everything. You are Jesus. You are Jesus. Everything be lifted high. above

Somebody worship Jesus right there. Come on, if you know his name is higher. Your name is higher, Jesus. Oh, yes, it is. Your name is higher. is high Power is sufficient. not brought us this far. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The God that parted the Red Sea. The God that flooded the earth.

The Armor of God Introduction

Six and 14. I'm going to go through this real quick, but this is very important. Finally, my brother and be strong in the Lord is where this is the way this starts off. And so. Final, just finally just signifying finale, final. And I believe that this is just very appropriate for our times now. And we have to remember, this is our preparation for what we're going through in this time. This is the final time. So in the finale of it, Ephesians 6 and 14 instructs us.
