Spiritual housecleaning of Occult curses
For more anointing and spiritual power.
8 steps to purifying your home.
Purification of heart – home – and
family.
A way to obtain power in the Spirit,
power over the devil,
A way to anointing and revival.
Gods promises depends upon our
obedience.
Physical objects can carry spiritual
significance.
When we seek God, He will reveal to us
the defiled things.
The estimated value of occult items the
Ephesians destroyed in town square (Acts 19:18-20) was approximately 4 mill. US
dollars. (rate of to day)
Repentance keeps us close to the Lord
and prevents the devil in gaining foothold in our lives.
Pornography and such like in our homes
will grieve the Holy Spirit away, and He will withdraw like in Samson’s life
and you will be left powerless in the Spirit, just like Samson.
Old testament speaks of defiled land more
than 15 times.
Homes as well as land can be defiled or
spiritual polluted.
Note: Viking’s place of sacrificing
slaves in
Many catholic homes are defiled, reason
why so many husbands and sons are alcoholics?
The rosary is found in most of the
homes. The rosary represents many different prayers unto the dead (saints).
Praying to dead human beings is an abomination to the Lord and it is close to
spiritism.
Crucifix (the cross is empty to day)
Images or sculptures of Mary, the black
Madonna, the “Saints” etc.

God.

All of us want to have our homes to be
spotless and fine.
It is what we should desire for our
souls as well!
1.Corintian 3: 16 know you not you are a
temple of God and the Holy Spirit dwells in you?
Purification process:
Put away the leaven.
Leaven in scripture is sin, evil or false
doctrine.
Why does the church lack power? Joshua 7:1
….Achan.
Why is our authority over the enemy so
compromised?
Why does revival tarry? Joshua 7:12-13
there is an accursed thing amongst you.
Objects of idolatry in our homes are a
curse. Deuteronomy 7:25-26 the graven images of their gods shall you burn with
fire. You shall not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor takes it
unto you, lest you be snared therein. For it is an abomination to the Lord your
God. v/26 neither shall you bring an abomination into your house, lest you be a
cursed thing like it, but you shall utterly detest it and you shall utterly
abhor it, for it is a cursed thing.
The seven steps to purification:
1. Present yourself before the Lord for
His inspection!
Self-evaluation is not enough and
deceitful.
Do as David did, he prayed: Search me oh
God, and know my heart, try me and see if there is any wicked way in me, and
lead me in the way everlasting. Ps. 139: 23-24.
2. Sanctify yourself. Cleanse your home
of pornography and sin, literature defiled etc.
(Sanctification is to be set aside for
God as for Gods purpose!
3. Locate the offensive items.
Achan's sin was located to the ground in
his tent, with the silver (50 shekel) underneath.
4. Rid yourself of those things that
defile.
Remove anything that relates to the
occult, heathen worship and to sin, and destroy them.
5.Be serious about it.
Don’t allow your children, husband or
wife to pollute, defile the house/home. Stop them! – Be very determined.
6. Renounce the enemy and your
association with him.
Break any contract or unholy ties.
Renounce out ALOUD, and repeat this renouncing for every item and every person
involved.
7. Finally, consecrate your life and
property to the glory of the Lord:
(Some Christians choose to anoint the
house with oil as a symbol of the Holy Spirit. This is called a prophetic act.)
Some places in India oil is replaced
with water, water sprinkled in every room.
In extremely grave cases prayer and
fasting is required.
Mark 9:29… This thing can come forth by
nothing but by prayer and fasting.
