Prayer To REMOVE Evil Seeds Out Of Your Loved Ones! Prayer Over Children’s Social Media Influences!

Prayer To REMOVE Evil Seeds Out Of Your Loved Ones! Prayer Over Children’s Social Media Influences!

ANYTHING THAT GOD DID NOT PLANT IN YOUR CHILDREN AND LOVED ONES WILL BE PLUCKED OUT! 

This is a new prayer to remove any unholy, ungodly social media or other areas of influence from our children and loved ones.

As my assistant, Jennifer Klinger, and I were interceding on behalf of the children the other day, the Lord gave us a new prayer that is based on Matthew 15:13 and is meant to be a follow-up to the Ax of God’s Judgment Prayer (see link below).

Matthew 15:13 – “But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.”

The Lord said to me to pray the Ax of Judgment to chop down the unholy, ungodly influences to get them off of and away from them, and then pray according to Matthew 15:13 for a thorough clean up to uproot and pluck out all unholy, ungodly seeds that have been planted in them.

Watch this excerpt from the broadcast on December 16, 2022, and then follow up with the prayers below.

Biblical Prayer To Remove Evil Influences and Remove Evil Seeds Off  Your Children and Loved Ones  

Note: Feel free to insert the names of your own children and children in your family as you pray over the children of our nation and the world.

Pray Out Loud:

“Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for our children. We lift them up to you, Father God, and we place all of our children in the blood of Jesus over all the world. We say our children are anyone under the age of 30 years old and even include the children who are in the womb right now. We ask you, King Jesus, to release the power of Your blood over every person under the age of 30, even the children in the womb. 

Your blood breaks all curses and demonic assignments off of our children. Your blood sanctifies and makes our children holy back to God. We proclaim that every child under the age of 30 years old, including those in the womb, has been redeemed by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ right now out of the hands of the devil and into the hands of God and set aside for the plans and purposes of God all for the glory of God by the blood of Jesus. 

Father, release Your anointing and pour out Your Spirit on all flesh — man, woman, and child, including the children in the womb — that Your sons and daughters shall prophesy and our old men shall dream dreams. You promised to do this, Father God, and we ask for it right now. Let every veil that is on every man, woman, and child be lifted now so that every man, woman, and child in this nation of America and all the nations shall have eyes of understanding right now. They shall see the truth, know the truth, receive the truth, walk in the truth, and understand the truth right now, in the name of Jesus. Every lie shall be cast down right now under the feet of Jesus Christ, canceled, dismantled, and crushed by the blood of Jesus. All witchcraft and sorcery that is being used against our children through the media propaganda and big tech companies is canceled and dismantled right now by the blood of Jesus. Thank You, Lord. We enforce the blood of Jesus right now. 

Father, we place all of our children’s phones, computers, devices, games, anything that is connected to the internet or by digital means, and anywhere they go on any technology platform or social media platform in the blood of Jesus Christ. 

Lord Jesus, release the power of Your blood over every phone, computer, laptop, and digital device that is in the hands of our children and even in our hands and cancel and dismantle any witchcraft, sorcery, propaganda, and lies of the enemy off of them all right now, in the name of Jesus, and replace it with Your truth. All of a sudden, Your truth, King Jesus, will start popping up on their phones. Scripture, prophetic messages, messages of the word of God will start supernaturally popping up on their devices right now, in the name of Jesus! Thank You, Lord.”

BLOOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED? JESUS SAYS: BEAR FRUIT WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED

BLOOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED? JESUS SAYS: BEAR FRUIT WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED

BLOOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED? JESUS SAYS: BEAR FRUIT WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED.
I have come to realize that many of our popular ‘feel good’ sayings that we send on notecards and display on magnets on our refrigerator are not always fully getting us past the temporary message – to long term change for the better. Jesus was all about the fruit. I wondered about this. Why does He talk about fruit in so many parables and what was the repeated point He was trying to give us? Fruit is long term and repeatable, because it holds a seed for the next season and can multiply. Blossoms MUST bear good fruit, and it’s harvest time for us and the Kingdom of God right now.
Jesus inspects our Fruit. In the bible many times people are represented as “trees’. Are you seeing a harvest for your work for the Lord? Many of you say, well I am being still, because God says be still. Understand God works in seasons, and we have to get into the flow of His seasons, and we must sow seeds into the next season, so being “still” is actually listening for instruction on how to take the next step in faith. We take these ‘still time’ conversations with Him and ask Him where He wants you to plant, replant? Because Jesus is very clear He must see FRUIT in us. You cannot stay still for too long, only a season.
In Luke 13:7 Jesus is clear in His teaching about expecting fruit in us:
“So he said to the keeper of the vineyard, ‘Look, for the past three years I have come to search for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Therefore cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?”
Jesus then says in Luke 13:9:
“If it bears fruit next year, fine. But if not, you can cut it down.”
Luke 14:35, Jesus brings the point of being fruitful for His kingdom on earth with a warning if we fail to bear fruit for the Kingdom of God in the earth stating:
“It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile, and it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Understand I teach this to you in Love as Jesus did – let’s focus on how you can bear fruit for the Kingdom of God. – Much Love, Coach Annamarie

Why Repent For Generational Sins? Is This Scriptural? YES!

Why Repent For Generational Sins? Is This Scriptural? YES!

Many of you know that I encourage in my teachings to learn how to go into the Courts Of Heaven to repent for your family bloodline and generational sins.  This is to remove any curses from the sins of the ‘fathers’ that are visited on us the ‘children’.  Yesterday on my Facebook page, I encouraged again to learn how to go into the Courts of Heaven to repent for these sins of your ancestors.   There was a question on the comments from a viewer who wanted to see what Bible scriptures backed this up,  because they felt that Ezekiel 18:19-20 means that we are innocent of any sins of our fathers as it states: “Yet you ask, ‘Why does the son not share the guilt of his father?’ Since the son has done what is just and right and has been careful to keep all my decrees, he will surely live.  The one who sins is the one who will die.”

The viewer said they felt there was no need to repent for the sins on their bloodline because of what Ezekiel 18:19-20 says.  I knew there were many more scriptures that stated we were guilty of the sins of the fathers (our ancestors) and I reached out to my friend and mentor,  Author/ Teacher Jeanette Strauss on this, and asked her for more scriptural confirmation.  I have had Jeanette come on my broadcasts to teach about the Courts of Heaven and cleansing the family bloodline many times.  Recently she spent four hours with me teaching on our broadcast the scriptural reasons to go into the Courts of Heaven to repent for yourself and your ancestors (you can watch that video below.)

Here is what Jeanette sent me to answer this question:

Question about the sins of the fathers visited on the children.   – By Jeanette Strauss (Author of Prayers and Petitions in The Courts of Heaven / From The Courtroom of Heaven to the Throne of Grace and Mercy)

 Ezek. 18:19-20; Yet you ask, ‘Why does the son not share the guilt of his father?’ Since the son has done what is just and right and has been careful to keep all my decrees, he will surely live.  The one who sins is the one who will die. “

We see this scripture says the son isn’t accountable for the sins of the father if he doesn’t repeat the sins of the father. 

So why do we repent and ask forgiveness for generational sins if God says we aren’t judged for the sins of our fathers or other ancestors? 

The answer according to all the commentaries I could find on this scripture explain that generational curses get their spiritual legal rights to operate through generational bloodlines because children almost always follow the example of their parents. 

Generational sins are weaknesses or tendencies that are handed down to us through the generations from parents or members of our family. These sins can involve behavioral patterns and ways of thinking that can serve to keep us trapped in the past and give legal rights for a curse to come upon us according to the Bible. We are responsible for our own sins, but usually, they will be the same sins as our parents. 

Prov. 26: 2; As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.

If a child chooses to not follow the pattern of the parents and can manage to stay sinless then the curse has no right to operate. But if the children sin as their fathers did then the same curse will come upon them. 

According to the word, we all do sin and need to repent and ask forgiveness for our sins. 

Romans 3:23 says; For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

In the New Testament, the disciples were familiar with generational bloodline curses. 

John 9:1-3; And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man who was blind from his birth. And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?  Jesus answered, neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

Jesus didn’t correct them when they asked this question. So that leads us to believe that in some cases sickness came from generational sin. 

In this next scripture, Jesus was condemning the religious leaders for their sins of bloodshed. He carried that curse from the Old Testament into the New Testament charging them as guilty for what their ancestors had done. They were committing the same sins.

Matthew 23:32-36; Go ahead, then, and complete what your ancestors started! Go ahead, then, and complete what your ancestors started! “You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell? Therefore, I am sending you prophets and sages and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town. And so upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. Truly I tell you, all this will come on this generation.

That upon you may come … – That is, the nation is guilty. Your fathers were guilty. You have shown yourselves to be like them. https://biblehub.com/commentaries/matthew/23-35.htm

There must be a reason that there are so many warning scriptures from God about generational curses. 

We know that there is such a thing as a generational bloodline curse still in existence today from the time Eve was cursed for her sin. We are considered the daughters of Eve.  The pain in childbirth is a reminder of the sinful decision made by Eve and the curse that God charged her with for her sin. 

 There is evidence that proves generational bloodline issues plague people. It’s found in their medical history which is a testimony against their generational bloodline.  That is why the doctor asks for family health history. They automatically figure if a disease runs in the family there is a very good chance you will develop it too. They order blood tests to confirm what the root problem might be for a person’s symptoms. It’s in the blood. A person carries the same DNA as their parents. 

We stand in the gap for generational sin because the Lord calls us ambassadors of reconciliation. Through our intercessory prayers on behalf of sin committed against God not only for our families but for others. We find this in the book of Daniel.

Dan. 9: 3-6 +14.  So I turned to the Lord God and pleaded with him in prayer and petition, in fasting, and in sackcloth and ashes. I prayed to the Lord my God and confessed: we have sinned and done wrong. We have been wicked and have rebelled; we have turned away from your commands and laws. We have not listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our princes and our ancestors, and to all the people of the land.  The Lord did not hesitate to bring the disaster on us, for the Lord our God is righteous in everything he does; yet we have not obeyed him. 

The scripture goes on to tell how Daniels’s intercession changes the history of Israel. I think it is important that He included his ancestors in his prayer of repentance asking for forgiveness. Just like Daniel we can obtain forgiveness and get curses that may be operating in our generations due to sin removed. 

“And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.” (Isaiah 58:12)

We are making intercessions for many generations. Clearing the record of sin in our generations in the courtroom of heaven.  

To follow up here are just a few of the scriptures that validate that if the children sin, they will be found guilty of the same sins as the fathers which allows legal spiritual permission in the form of a curse to come upon them as it came upon their father.

We do agree with the word that says if the children don’t sin as the fathers did then God will not render judgment upon them and he will show loving-kindness to them,  but apparently, He thinks they might so He is warning them. 

Exodus 20: 4-6 says, “You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing loving kindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.” (NASB)

Exodus 34:7; who keeps lovingkindness for thousands, who forgives iniquity, transgression, and sin; yet He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished, visiting the iniquity of fathers on the children and on the grandchildren to the third and fourth generations.” Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Sins-Of-The-Fathers

2 Samuel 12:13-14 says, “And David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the LORD.” And Nathan said to David, “The LORD also has allowed your sin to pass [without further punishment]; you shall not die. Nevertheless, because by this deed you have given [a great] opportunity to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme [Him], the son that is born to you shall certainly die.”  David’s son became ill soon after he was born. David prayed and fasted. On the seventh day, his son died. King David who was called” a man after God’s heart” lied, lusted and committed adultery. Then he manipulated battle positions to have Uriah killed in a fierce battle. His punishment was the death of his son.

Deut. 5:9; You shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,

Psalm 79:8-9. “O do not remember against us the sins and guilt of our forefathers. Let Your compassion and mercy come quickly to meet us, for we have been brought very low. Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Your name; Rescue us, forgive us our sins for Your name’s sake.” 

Jer. 32:18 You show steadfast love to thousands, but you repay the guilt of fathers to their children after them, O great and mighty God, whose name is the Lord of hosts,

Numbers 14:18; ‘The Lord is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but he will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, to the third and the fourth generation.’

Exodus 20:5; You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me,

Any type of sinful choice of behavior can possibly impact several generations of one’s offspring and cause much suffering. Further, when a father has a sinful lifestyle, his children are likely to practice the same sinful lifestyle. Implied in the warning of Exodus 20:5 is the fact that children will choose to repeat the sins of their fathers. God promises to punish sin to the third or fourth generation because those generations are committing the same sins their fathers did.

Note from Annamarie:  I found Jeanette Strauss at a crucial time in my life (four years ago) when I asked the HOLY SPIRIT what was the next step in praying for my prodigal daughter? He brought me to Jeanette Strauss. I am like you, I want to make sure everything is backed up by scripture and Jeanette makes sure of that!  I can testify to the blessings and breakthroughs and yes even miracles that have happened in my life and family (even sisters, cousins and my mom) that resulted from taking the time to learn how to go into the courts of Heaven and repent for my sins and the sins of my ancestors!  Jesus said you would know these things and people by their fruit, and I have had only GOOD FRUIT – Holy Spirit fruit from this.  Family member salvations, deliverances from addictions, prodigals returning home, debt cancellation,  land and homes coming forth, ministries and Christian schools starting up in family members, healings in my body and mind and in family members, marriages restored and healed and so much more – I could go on and on.  God is faithful to HIS WORD and I will continue to approach His Throne of Grace and Mercy and believe in the Power of The Blood of Jesus to cleanse all – because HE is the Alpha and the Omega – the beginning and the end – that washes away the sins of the world of all time – including my ancestors and yours – but we have to take ahold of that precious BLOOD!  THANK YOU JESUS!  Because of Jesus – the Kingdom and the Courts of God are open to us!  I want to see these breakthroughs and miracles in your life and family!

My ministry is a Kingdom Ministry.  I am constantly pursuing the KINGDOM and looking for more meat.  I am all about GROWTH here for our students.  God has a Kingdom. Kingdoms have COURTS.   What a gift that we can go deeper and learn more of the Kingdom of God!

We are instructed to pursue learning how to go deeper into the things of the Kingdom.  We must understand there is a point where we get off the milk and get into the meat – the Courts of Heaven are for those who seek MEAT (mature Christians). Yes we start out like a little child but we are not to stay immature in our faith – we must keep growing. Paul states in  1 Corinthians 3:2  “Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual, but as worldly—as infants in Christ. 2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for solid food. In fact, you are still not ready.”

Also this knowledge of the Kingdom (Courts) will be added unto you when you seek the KINGDOM:

Matthew 6:33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

Much Love – Annamarie

HOW TO APPEAR IN THE COURTS OF HEAVEN 

 

BIBLICAL TEACHING: HOW TO PRAY OVER YOUR GROCERIES AND ANY PURCHASE COMING INTO YOUR HOME

BIBLICAL TEACHING: HOW TO PRAY OVER YOUR GROCERIES AND ANY PURCHASE COMING INTO YOUR HOME

Transcription of the Bible teaching and prayers by Annamarie Strawhand from her broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane on April 11, 2022. 

Watch the video HERE, and then read the transcript below.  

ANNAMARIE: Where are we right now in this moment? We’re at Nisan 10 and Nisan 11. We are in the moment when Jesus walked into the temple after coming in on a donkey, and He inspected the temple. 

We are the temple now — our bodies, right. We invite the Lord Jesus Christ into our heart. Our spirit man is renewed, right — Christ who lives within us. Then the sanctification process just begins. When you receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, the sanctification process just starts, and it’s time to start cleaning out the temple, folks. 

What’s in your temple that’s defiling it? You need to only, you can only do that with the help of the Holy Spirit. So after you ask Jesus Christ to be your Lord and Savior and come into your heart, and your spirit man is renewed, and the sanctification process needs to start as we grow in the Lord, we have to then invite the Holy Spirit in — the presence of the Lord. 

And if you, if you’re not sure if you have invited Jesus Christ into your heart, and if you’re not sure that you have invited the Holy Spirit to come and dwell within you, then you need to go to my website, annamariestrawhand.com. Go to my Salvation prayers, and do it again because we go all the way. Not only do we, right, and recommit your life to Christ today, and pray that prayer again. Invite the Lord Jesus Christ in you, and invite the Holy Spirit in you. 

And then you can really start the clean-up. And you can say, “Holy Spirit,” and just know by faith he’s there, and you will begin to hear Him. You will begin to get stirrings in your spirit. He will begin to point out things to you that’s junk in your trunk. He’ll begin to say to you, “Uh, uh, listen, sister, there’s some stuff that’s defiling your temple that’s going in your eye-gate. Yeah, you know those horror movies you’ve been watching? Time to stop doing them. They’re going in your eye-gate. They’re defiling your temple.” Come on. “Hey, you know that rap music you’ve been listening to with bad language or rap music you’ve been listening to on a unholy, ungodly frequency coming in your ear-gates? That’s defiling your temple. Need to clean that stuff out. You know that junk food filled with chemicals that you’ve been putting in your mouth-gate? That’s defiling your temple. Better stop doing that stuff.” Come on. 

You see, when you start realizing that within you is the Holy of Holies, the place where Jesus dwells, the place where the presence of the Lord dwells within you, Christ who lives within you, the Holy Spirit who dwells within you, you are a walking temple of the Lord, and you do not want defilement in there. And it’s time to clean up. Jesus is in there overturning the temples, overturning the tables in you. He’s going, “Get this stuff up out of you right now. Come on, no more of that stuff. No more of that stuff coming in your gates.”

Are you eating foods that you don’t pray over that was offered up, up to idols? Hmm? That’s why you got to pray over everything before it goes in your mouth-gate. Paul made very clear of that, especially when he was in, you know, the, the Greek countries and the lower Asian, upper Asian and lower Asian countries and setting up churches because they were still eating foods and bringing foods into the churches that had been dedicated to idols and eating it. And he kept telling them, “You’re defiling your temple,” and they were like, “Whaaat?”

You know, are there, are there stores that you buy food from that are run by Muslims? Right? They offer up their meats and everything to Allah, and Allah, Allah is … they don’t worship, right, they don’t worship the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, you see. They believe Jesus is, was just a, a, like a prophet. 

So those, right, those foods need to be prayed over, but we can eat whatever we want. It’s not like we, we can’t eat pork or we can’t eat, you know, shrimp, right. We can still eat those things because God told Peter, “Kill and eat, Peter,” but He said, “Whatever I’ve made clean is clean.” What does that mean? Pray over your food before you, right, pray over your food and dedicate it to God and ask Jesus to wash, right …

So say I’ve got this cup of coffee here. I got this cup of coffee and I say, “Father, in the name of Jesus, I dedicate and consecrate this cup of coffee to you. I ask you to bless it, and I bless it in the name of Jesus. Lord Jesus, cleanse this coffee with your blood and sanctify it, in Jesus’ name.” And then I drink it. 

I dedicate my food to God. I ask Jesus to cleanse it with His blood, and I bless it, and [Inaudible] bless it [Inaudible], right. That means it’s changed realms, right. The tables have been flipped on your food before it’s put into your mouth-gate. It has changed realms. Amen? 

I love to buy kosher foods because I know they’ve been dedicated to the Lord God of Israel — God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob — but because God told Peter as a disciple — and I’m a disciple of the Lord, and I might have to travel places, or I might have to go into places where food is not kosher, right. I know by what God instructed Peter to kill and eat.” What I have made clean is clean.” Just pray over your food. Rededicate it to God. Just dedicate anything that goes into your gates to God. I don’t care if you’re using, um, eye drops, makeup, anything that goes on your temple, just lift it up to God; dedicate it to Him, and ask Him to bless it. Right. 

And this is what I do; I make it easy, right. Say you got a whole, the whole car full of groceries. You got a whole car full of groceries, and this is what I do. I pull into the driveway with my groceries. I say, “Father God, thank you for these groceries today. I dedicate and consecrate all of the groceries in this car to you, Father God. I ask you to bless them. I wash all these groceries and even the containers that they’re in in the blood of Jesus. Let everything that goes into my home be washed in the blood of Jesus Christ right now and blessed by you, God.”

I just do it all at once with my groceries, so that when my groceries come in the house they’ve all been dedicated to God even before they hit the refrigerator and the cabinets.

Ha! Molly says she’s grocery shopping now. So, Molly, right, you can get, get your groceries in the car, right. Pull in your driveway with the groceries, and say this prayer. Say, “Father God, I thank you for all these groceries. I thank you for your provision. I dedicate and consecrate all of these groceries to you, Father God, and I ask you to bless them, Father God. And I place all these groceries in the blood of Jesus. Let them be cleansed by the blood of Jesus, that everything that goes into my home is washed in the blood of Jesus and sanctified, and I call these groceries blessed, in Jesus’ name.”

You know, and you can even do that as part of your suit up every morning. Say you’re getting stuff that comes in … say you some, say you order something online, maybe you order foods online, maybe you do online shopping, all right, and here comes the UPS truck or the FedEx truck, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep backing up to your driveway, dropping stuff off, right. 

So just say in the morning, “Anything that comes into my home, any delivery that comes into my home, I dedicate to you, Father God, and I ask you, Jesus, to wash it in your blood. So anything coming in my home today, I dedicate to Almighty God. Let it be washed in the blood of Jesus Christ.” 

Now that’s your mail coming in from the mailbox, deliveries, you know. Maybe somebody’s coming into your house to do some service or something. You know, work on your heat or your air conditioning or your plumbing or whatever. Just say, “Let everything that comes into this home today,” right, “be dedicated to Almighty God and washed in the blood of Jesus.” 

You know, you don’t want to get like obsessive-compulsive about it like, [Sound affects], you know. Just do it as part of your, your, your daily routine, like your suit up, right. You know, don’t start going through your cabinets and freaking out and be, I mean, you know, this is when, you know, your husband and kids start going, “Wait a minute. She’s gone a little bit off her rocker.” 

No, just stand in the middle of the house, really simple. Say, “Father, in the name of Jesus, I dedicate all the possessions in this house right now — all the supplies, all the possessions in this home right now to you. You know where everything is God.” 

I’m not telling you to go into your bathroom and take everything out of the cabinets and every stick of lipstick and every shampoo, and be like [Sound effect]. Calm down. Right. Just say, “Father, in the name of Jesus, I, I dedicate every, all my possessions in this home, everything in this home, all of our supplies to you, Father God. I ask you to bless everything in this home. I ask you to wash all the possessions that are in this home right now, right down to the tubes of lipstick, right down to the Q-tips, right down to the dog food, wash it all in your blood. Cleanse it. Sanctify it. Make it holy, and I bless it too, in Jesus’ name.” 

And you’re done. You’re done. You’re done. Okay? Because your home is, is like a temple too, right? Anywhere where there’s gateways, and that’s why I taught you all with Jeanette Strauss how to anoint your home. Right, when you anoint the doors and windows, right, as it passes through, it’s changing realms. It’s changing in, coming into a place that’s dedicated to God. You know, and just make it simple. Just make it, you know, just do it something calm. 

Mike, Mike knows when we come home from our grocery shopping, you know, right before he’s ready to jump out of the car, I say that quick prayer over the groceries. Done. 

And so, you know, just be, just be reverent of what comes into your gateways, whether it be your home gateway, whether it be your body gateway, right, because Jesus is doing an inspection right now. We’re in a time and a season where Jesus is looking around, and he’s saying, “You don’t need that anymore, and I’m going to flip the tables and throw it out of here. It’s defiling your temple.”

ASKING GOD FOR A SIGN? IS THIS OK OR NOT? (How To Ask The Holy Spirit For Confirmation)

ASKING GOD FOR A SIGN? IS THIS OK OR NOT? (How To Ask The Holy Spirit For Confirmation)

Watch the replay of this excerpt from my live broadcast on 12/21/20 as I answer this question from a viewer: “Is it okay to ask God for a sign?”

(How To Ask The Holy Spirit For Confirmation)

See the instruction in the video, transcription notes and prayers at the end to learn how to ask God for a sign for something that you need guidance on in your life!

The Holy Spirit WANTS to partner with you! It’s okay to ask Him to give you a sign and to show you the steps that He has for you in order to confirm what He has called you to do for the Kingdom. 

ANNAMARIE: [Timestamp – 30:36] Listen, you don’t have to ask to see a whale. You can ask for anything, but don’t make it obvious. Okay? Like if you were to, work at a sandwich shop and you see tomatoes every day, don’t say, “Lord, show me a tomato.” You see tomatoes every day. Let it be something that’s unique, and different, okay? Let it be something that you don’t normally see that only God can bring to you. Okay? Or you can start with the simple thing that me and Jeno started with, a whale. 

That’s how God directs His prophets. He puts them in the belly of a whale. Okay? We know that Jonah was going the wrong way, but God put him in the stomach of a whale to redirect him to the right way, and so I just used whales. That’s what God showed me, you know, but you can, you can whatever between you and the Holy Spirit. Gideon used a fleece.

Now, I go deeper with God on these things. I say, “Lord, show me a number.” Okay? “Show me 55 or show me 555 or show me this scripture today.” 

So, the, the Holy Spirit wants to work with you. He wants to you to write things down. He wants you to journal with Him. He wants to, so that you will have what? A testimony! 

You see, we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. My testimony today is giving God glory and is getting you to connect with the Holy Spirit, work with the Holy Spirit so that you can have the fruit of the Holy Spirit. And what does the fruit of the Holy Spirit do? It gives God glory. Okay?

So, of course, it’s okay to ask for signs. You’re partnering with the Holy Ghost. That’s what you’re meant to do. So if you want to ask for a whale, ask for a whale. 

You see, God wants to move His prophets, teachers, evangelists, intercessors and builders around. We have to go and deliver the word, deliver the message, deliver the prophesy over the land, be boots on the ground, but we got to be willing to go. “Yes, Lord, send me.” And when you’re working with God and He’s sending you places and He’s commissioning you and He’s leading you into your assignment, you have to have these signs. You have to have these confirmations so that you can stay in obedience as well. 

I have learned how to ask for signs and partner with the Holy Spirit and be like Gideon. We’re not using this to trip up Jesus. We should never say, “Lord, give me a sign to prove it.” No, we should never be like that, ever! We do it humbly in partnership with the Holy Spirit, walking with Him, talking with Him in relationship, writing it down. We are the Holy Spirit’s scribe. 

We are to be asking questions of the Holy Spirit and of Jesus like children ask Him a question. That’s why we are said childlike faith. That’s why Jesus bless the little children. Jesus was always chastising the Pharisees because of the way they acted with their uppity ways, but when the children came to Him, they were asking Him questions and wanted to just be near him. And Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is like these little children asking of me, being inquisitive of me, asking these sweet innocent questions like a child would.”

This is the revelation of the Holy Spirit. We’ve got to read the word of God with the revelation of the Holy Spirit. If you read your Bible without the revelation of the Holy Spirit, you’re going to stay confused and you’re going to, you’re not going to be able to get that word in your spirit, and you’re going to be reading it with religious eyes instead of Holy Spirit eyes. And religion is fear and control, but Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit and the true Spirit of the living God that is in the words of those pages are prosperity and life and life abundant and freedom and liberty and grace and mercy and partnership and kingdom and glory. 

And this, my friends, is what I encourage you all today and motivate you to do today because all of Heaven is cheering you on in this race, and there are many lets to this race. There are many stations to this race where you’ll be in this race, and you’re going to have to stop and ask for directions of the Holy Spirit each time. And every time you stop and ask directions of the Holy Spirit, He will be faithful to give you those directions. 

And, yes, you can ask Him for a sign for those directions. “But what is my next road sign, Lord? What’s my next road sign so that I can run this race strong and fast and be accelerated so I can have the victory for Jesus Christ.”

And all of Heaven is cheering you on. We are the heroes of the faith now, and God sends us signs in the heavens with the stars and the moon in the sky. That’s why they were put up there. And today is December 21, 2020, where a great sign in the heavens is here for us, the people of God. And we say, “More, God. We receive Your glorious sign today. We receive it into our spirit, and we are ready to be activated and ac, accelerated by this sign in the heavens and by the signs that you put in our lives so the, that the KINGDOM OF GOD can be accelerated in the earth through us, Your ecclesia, Jesus, for Your kingdom and Your glory is forever and ever, in Jesus’ name.” Hallelujah.

So, my friends, I hope you enjoyed this teaching today. I hope it motivated you and it encouraged you. It’s okay to ask for a sign, and I hope and pray that you really seek God’s face. Ask Him to speak to you because He wants to talk to you. He wants to walk with you. He wants to show you His beautiful signs and wonders. He wants to give you direction for your life. He wants you to fulfill your assignment on earth so that great fruit can be produced in your life for you, for your household, for your family, and for the kingdom of God.

And, Father, I just ask of You today, in the name of Jesus, I ask of You today for Your spirit, your Holy Spirit to pour out on all of my friends today in such a way that they’ve never, ever, ever seen before in their lives. That You are showing them signs everywhere they go, and the Holy Spirit, You go and prompt them strongly in their spirit for them to pay attention to these signs that You give them today, Lord, and that it, they receive it into their spirit. And, Father, I just pray for these, these bold signs that You are giving to Your people, that You give to my friends today, and, Father, I’m going to ask for the sign today for all my friends, the sign of a feather, that You show my friends the sign of a feather today that You are with them, that Your angels are with them, and that Your Holy Spirit is with them. Just show them the sign of a feather today, Father. I don’t know how You’re going to show them a feather today. I just know you’re going to show them a feather. Maybe You’re going to show it to them in a drawing. Maybe they’re going to see a feather on the ground. Maybe they’re going to walk into a building and see a painting of a feather. I don’t know how You’re going to show them a feather today, Lord. I just know you’re going to show them a feather because You love them. Your Holy Spirit wants to partner with them. You do want to give us signs, and you want us to ask for them, and I ask You to show each one of my friends today a feather, somehow, some way, like only You can do, Father, as a sign of Your faithfulness of Your Holy Spirit being with us. I ask You this, Father, in Jesus’s name. We receive our feathers today, in the name of Jesus, as a sign of Your faithfulness, Father God, to partner with Your Holy Spirit. Thank You, Lord, and we praise You. Amen, amen, amen and woo hoooo!!

All right, my friends, keep your eye out for a feather, and if you see a feather, let me know. Share it with me, and know that it’s a sign of God’s faithfulness that He loves you, that He’s with you, and that He wants you to ask Him for signs and steps, and He wants to have that partnership with you, with His Holy Spirit so you can fulfill exactly what You’ve been called to do and be accelerated to the, into your destiny for the kingdom and the glory of God. Hallelujah. [Timestamp: 47:45]

Simple How To Ask God For A Sign Prayer: 

Please make it simple. Go to a private place where there are no electronics (computers, phones, etc) that could listen in on what you ask the Holy Spirit, and just ask quietly and faithfully:

“Holy Spirit, my helper, I am asking for a sign like you did for Gideon. I am asking this for myself now. This is my question for you Holy Spirit: _____________________? If the answer is yes, please show me a Whale.  If the answer is no, please show me a Jellyfish. Thank You, Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ name I ask this, and I am in faithful expectation of your help in this matter! Amen.”

You can also pray this way for confirmation in a matter:

“Father God I partner with your Holy Spirit I want to have conversations and confirmations with your Holy Spirit!  I want your Holy Spirit to guide me every step of the way of my divine assignment so I can fulfill it!  I desire to  see the fruit of the Holy Spirit in my life and in others lives so you get the all the glory, God!  Holy Spirit, my helper in Jesus name I’m asking you for a sign today.  My question I need confirmed is: Shall I proceed on this situation OF: ________________ ?  If  this is meant for me to proceed on this matter, Holy Spirit  I’m asking for you to show me the number 555, and show it to me repeatedly for confirmation.  I am faithfully asking to have your grace and confirmation and stamp of approval upon this decision.  I don’t know where you’re going to show me the number 555 I just know you’re going to show me the number 555.  I’m going to be awake and alert and ready to receive your answer and confirmation in Jesus name!  Thank You Holy Spirit!”
