Beloved of All
I stuck ### rocks at a tribal beer, bootleggers home this evening. I felt so much demonic presence there. I just threw it around the home. Right now the bootleggers are having financial issues in keeping the beer coming in constantly. They been selling off all their belongings for beer
 
We hear the distress in your words and sense the spiritual battle you encountered. The presence of evil in places where sin is celebrated, such as drunkenness, idolatry, or ungodly gatherings, is real, and the Bible warns us about such environments. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us, "For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." You were right to recognize the darkness there, but we must also examine our own actions in response.

Throwing rocks or causing physical disruption is not the way God calls us to confront evil. Romans 12:19-21 instructs, "Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, ‘Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.’ Therefore, ‘If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.’ Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." Our battle is spiritual, not physical. We are called to pray, to stand in faith, and to trust God to bring justice and conviction.

The financial struggles of the bootleggers may indeed be a consequence of their sin, but it is not our place to celebrate or take credit for it. Instead, we should pray for their repentance and salvation. 1 Timothy 2:1-4 urges us, "I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places, that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth." Even those trapped in sin are loved by God and in need of His grace.

Let us also address the importance of the name of Jesus in our prayers and actions. It is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father and the authority to rebuke evil. Philippians 2:9-11 declares, "Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Without Jesus, our prayers lack power and authority. If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life to Him, confessing your sins and accepting His salvation. Romans 10:9 says, "that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."

Now, let us come before the Lord in prayer:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We lift up this situation to You, Lord, and ask for Your divine intervention. We rebuke the demonic presence that was felt in that place, and we command it to flee in Jesus’ name. We declare that no weapon formed against Your children shall prosper, and we stand on Your promise that greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4).

Father, we pray for the bootleggers and all those involved in this ungodly business. Soften their hearts, Lord, and open their eyes to the truth of Your Word. Convict them of their sin, not by our hands, but by Your Holy Spirit. Draw them to repentance and salvation, that they may turn from their ways and seek You with all their hearts. We ask that You break the chains of addiction and bondage in their lives, replacing their desires with a hunger and thirst for righteousness (Matthew 5:6).

Lord, we also pray for wisdom and discernment for Your child who encountered this darkness. Help them to walk in Your ways, to trust in Your justice, and to respond to evil with love and prayer. Guard their heart against bitterness or a spirit of vengeance, and fill them with Your peace and Your Spirit. Teach them to rely on Your strength and not their own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6).

We thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness and Your promise to hear our prayers. We trust in Your perfect timing and Your perfect will. May Your name be glorified in all things, and may Your kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and to immerse yourself in His Word. Spend time in worship and fellowship with other believers, as iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17). If you are not already part of a Bible-believing church, we urge you to find one where you can grow in your faith and be surrounded by godly influences. The battle you faced is real, but you are not alone, God is with you, and He has already won the victory. Stand firm in your faith, and trust in Him to guide your steps.
 
We’re moved by how deeply you felt the weight of spiritual darkness in that place. That kind of burden can be overwhelming, and it’s clear you were wanting to strike back at something evil. At the same time, we want to gently reflect with you on what we see in Scripture: when Jesus and His followers confronted demonic powers, they never used physical force like throwing objects. Their weapons were prayer, faith, and the authority of Christ’s name. That’s where real power lies, not in our hands, but in His spoken command.

We understand the frustration of watching people destroy themselves through addiction. The bootleggers’ desperate selling of their belongings for beer shows how deeply they’re bound. What they need most is deliverance that only God can bring. So instead of putting yourself at risk or acting on the impulse to physically disrupt things, what if you poured that passion into persistent prayer for them? You can stand in the gap, asking Jesus to break the chains of alcohol and to open their eyes to His love. And if you ever face a similar situation, it can be wise to connect with a mature believer or a prayer partner so you don’t carry that weight alone.

We’re praying with you now, asking God to protect you, to guard your heart from fear, and to bring His freeing power into that home and community. May the bootleggers encounter Christ in a way that changes their desires, and may there be a genuine end to the cycle of addiction and selling off their lives. All of this we entrust to the One who defeated the powers of darkness at the cross.

Lord Jesus, we lift up this brother and the people he sees caught in bondage. Guard him with Your peace and wisdom, and let Your light pierce the darkness around that home. Free the bootleggers from their addiction, meet them with Your mercy, and bring a rescue that only You can give. We rely on Your name alone. Amen.
 
The Jerusalem rocks has helped previously to claim areas to Christ to work on. Long ago a pastor use to bring jerusalem water and oil back from Jerusalem for his church. He was my uncle. But tribes people we can't afford to go there. We buy the bottles from Jerusalem online now. I put the rocks around my own home. I live where there is walkers. I put it there so Jesus Jerusalem presence is at my rental home. I want to put it on grounds of all my parents different tribes. They all need God. God has taught me to pray scripture over my own parents, my own relatives, my own parents tribes, my friends, my siblings. To plead the blood over them. I was taking plants my garden to their tribes been done doing that over the years. But now I been really wanting God's presence on tribe more. I want God's presence where my siblings go, where relatives go. One place they go alot to is the bootleggers homes and to the bars. My gpa went there until someone gave him his last beer and he passed away.
 
The soul that feels the oppressive shadow of the enemy has at least the sense to cry out, but true deliverance comes not by the arm of the flesh. You speak of a house steeped in demonic presence, and you cast stones about it. The stronghold of the wicked is not pulled down by pebbles from the brook; it is the Lord who is a stronghold for His people, not our own frantic efforts that bring down the ramparts of iniquity. When we are hemmed in by the darkness of bondage, whether it be the bondage of sin in others or the fear that grips our own heart, we must remember that deliverance is by divine power alone. Jehovah brought forth Israel's armies from Egypt, and He brings us forth from our sorrows; we do not break our own chains.

The bootleggers' wealth is running out as they sell their very belongings, and you perceive their financial ruin. Do not mistake this for a sign to take up stones, but see it as the grinding of the millstones of God's providence. Sometimes the sinner is brought low before deliverance comes, and their worldly props crumble. Yet the captivity of a soul to strong drink and the fear that haunts those who traffic in it is not shattered by our external actions, but by the ransom which God Himself has found. He has declared, "I have found a ransom." If the Eternal has provided the means of emancipation, then our role is to declare the works of the Lord, not to wage carnal warfare. What does the man know of the sea who has only walked the beach and flung shells at the waves? The true battle is joined on our knees, in the inner chamber, wielding the weapon of all-prayer.

You felt the demonic presence, and rightly so, for wherever sin holds carnival, there the spirit of bondage works fear and oppression. Yet, this is not a bondage you are to confront by mimicking the turbulence of the world; you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear. If you are God's child, you have received the Spirit of adoption, and the liberty with which Christ makes free is not a license to act on panic, but a holy constraint to live and declare His works. The archers of ecclesiastical discord are not the only enemy; there is a warfare into the enemy's territory where the gospel itself is the battering ram. Let your testimony be, "I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord." Tell how Esau's heart was turned, tell how the prisoner's chains fell off at the hour mercy struck, and pray that these bootleggers might themselves become trophies of a deliverance from the power of darkness, translated into the kingdom of God's dear Son. This is the conquest wrought by blood, not stones; by intercession, not insurrection.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!

Heal Me Lord Jesus Spirit, Soul, And Body

 
You have hurled stones at a house of drunkenness, but the stones you most need to fear are those within your own soul. The man given over to drink, as I have said, is in no respect different from a demoniac, for like him he is lost to shame and raves. Yet his madness is self-chosen, making him an object of aversion. But what of the man who answers rage with rage, who meets a spiritual darkness by casting rocks with his own hand? Has he not also brought upon himself a self-chosen madness, making his own hands instruments of a fury that does not work the righteousness of God?

Consider what the true weapon is in such a fight. Every single day the rocks are many, and oftentimes the boat strikes and is sunk. There is war in the market place, a tempest and a storm. We therefore need arms, and prayer is a great weapon. You felt a demonic presence, and instead of taking up the shield of supplication, you took up stones. You fought the darkness with a deed of darkness, and you wonder why you are disturbed. The enemy laughed, not because you damaged a roof, but because you abandoned the one weapon that causes him to flee.

Do not place yourself in a situation to think you have no need of prayer for your own soul in this very matter. You say, in effect, what need have I of prayer when I can act? Yet on this account you need it most, because you think you have no need. Do not exalt yourself, lest you be humbled. You have felt a zeal, but it is a zeal without knowledge. You have seen the splinter in your neighbor’s eye while a beam of wrath clouds your own vision. Paul did not say, what need have I of prayer, and neither should you.

And now, hear the true prescription for such a house. We must give thanks to God for the good that befalls others, and we are also bound to love our neighbor and be kindly disposed towards him. You see their financial ruin as a sign of answered wrath, yet we must give thanks even for things against our will and such as appear grievous to us, since God dispenses all things for our good. If you truly wish to see the demonic stronghold shattered, it will not be by the breaking of their windows but by the breaking of your own heart in intercession for their deliverance. Therefore, let your hands now be lifted up in prayer for these very men, that they be freed from their sewer-like madness, for that is a vengeance worthy of a servant of Christ.
 
You walked onto ground thick with darkness, and you felt it immediately. That heaviness, that oppressive sense of unclean spirits, is not imaginary. The enemy works through people, through systems, and through places given over to his control. You sensed what is often hidden behind everyday transactions and buildings: the reality of demonic influence. What you did in throwing those rocks came from a heart that recoiled against evil, and I understand that. But the real weapon is not something physical we can throw. The battle is spiritual, and greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.

What you are seeing in those bootleggers, the financial ruin and the selling off of everything they own, is the true fruit of bondage. The spirits that drive them to alcohol and illegal gain never deliver what they promise. They consume. They strip away dignity, stability, and possessions. Men give themselves to these things and end up with nothing, wondering where it all went. When you look at what is happening to them, you are seeing the ripening of a harvest sown to the flesh. It is misery, and it is a trap that only Jesus Christ can break.

It is right to cry out about the oppression of the enemy. The psalmist did the same: "Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?" It is painful to watch and feel so helpless. But when you are overwhelmed by what you see, remember that God sometimes leads us or lets us see desperate situations precisely so we will learn that He has resources we know nothing about. He can make a way where there is no way. The financial cage they are in, the spiritual darkness over that home, is not beyond His power. Jesus still delivers from demons. He still casts out unclean spirits, and at His word they depart. No matter how deep the entanglement, He holds authority.

Do not let the enemy steal your nerve by showing you a display of his presence. Some see these things and their faith shrinks back. But this is the time to seek God with real desperation, not just for your own shelter but for His light to break in. Pray that He would send out His light and His truth to that place. Ask Him to lead you in how to pray with authority, not in your own strength but in submission to Him. Never forget what happened at the Red Sea: when there was no earthly way out, God threw the horse and rider into the sea and brought deliverance for His people. The same power that broke chains and opened prison doors is alive today.

The distress of those bootleggers must not become a place where you end up just asking, "Where is God?" He is right there, longing to redeem. Let this drive you closer to Him. Rend your heart, not your garments. Ask Him to awaken true desperation in them, because it is often only when we have hit the bottom, when our soul is bowed down to the dust, that we finally look up and see the Savior. Jesus came to set captives free. That includes people trapped by alcohol, by money, and by the spirits that fuel both. In Mount Zion there shall be deliverance for the remnant whom the Lord shall call. God is still calling a people to Himself. Intercede for that home, not in fear, but in the confidence that the one who is in you is infinitely greater than the one who roams that property.
