AN AUTHORITATIVE PRAYER
TO SILENCE SATAN AND HIS DEMONS!
GOSPEL READING: Mark 4:35-41
Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea,
“Peace be still!” And the wind ceased and there was
a great calm. (Mark 4:39)
ONE powerful word spoken by ONE Sovereign Lord from ONE human made boat! Verse 36b says “And other LITTLE boats were also with Him. If Jesus’ boat (the bigger one) was filling, what about the other LITTLE boats with lower capacity? Mark says nothing more regarding those OTHER LITTLE boats. His focus is Jesus’ boat from which was expected a solution of salvation for all the boats and the people in that sea.
Yes, there was a Jesus’ boat and OTHER LITTLE boats. The same, there is today the True Church of Christ the Saviour where He permanently abides, and the OTHER LITTLE Churches (little because lacking faith) around Him, not carrying the Saviour, the King of kings, but carrying worries, doubts, vain discussions, lies, pride, selfish, thefts, etc.
“Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?” (Verse 38b). This the disciples certainly said because not only their boat was filling, BUT BECAUSE THEY WERE WATCHING THE OTHER BOATS AROUND SINKING AND THE FISHERS THERE DYING DROWNED. At this point, PRAYER with doubts was not the right weapon to use. As same, PRAYER without faith had no place in this whirlwind and COMPLAINING PRAYER crying up, “Lord, Lord, we are perishing!” needed FIRST to be rebuked from the disciples’ hearts. All this turmoil was originated from the terrible windstorm of unbelief that was rooted within the disciples’ hearts and which spiritually woke up the chorus of the demons living under the waters of the sea to make the situation worse. Not only Jesus rebuked the windstorm over the sea, but He also rebuked the unbelief storm from the disciples’ hearts.
Dear Christian brethren, if our prayer is always “Jesus, we are perishing! We are perishing!” demons under the seas as well as those principalities, powers and rulers of the darkness of this age and spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:10) SHALL ALL ALSO RUSH TOWARDS US AND JOIN AND RESPOND “Yes, perish, yes, perish as you wish it!”. But if our prayer in any situation becomes “ Lord Jesus, you are the Eternal Son of God, the Almighty God, the Master, the King of kings, the Saviour, the Alfa and the Omega”, THE DARKNESS FORCES WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY MUZZLED AND SILENCED! For God’s holy angels hosts will move around us, praising and saying:
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth PEACE,
Goodwill toward men!” (Luke 2:14).
All over the fifth chapter of the Gospel as written by John, Jesus explains it clearly to the disciples that He never did anything without having received instructions from the Father. Even in this story, the Lord Jesus was not speaking nor working miracles by Himself. No! All came from the Father in heaven and was given to Him during the nights He spent in prayer. Do you need to be healed definitely from DOUBTS in your prayers? Make a step today and start inquiring from the Lord in everything and He will tell you what to say and do without fear. Jesus knew this very truth:
“For He spoke, and it was done
He commanded, and it stood fast” (Psalm 33:9).
As they wake up the Lord, the disciples say: “Teacher!” At this point, it is clear that they simply knew Him as “Teacher” of the Word and NOT the ALMIGHTY SON OF GOD who told them “LET US CROSS OVER THE OTHER SIDE.”(verse 4:35) and could keep them safe. And when He had stopped the windstorm, they find no qualifying Name to be given Him. Their response was trembling with exceeding fear and “Who can this be?” Do we firmly know who He is?
“I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes
To the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)
Christians, whenever Satan and his demons dare to touch the sovereign Throne of God, IT IS TIME TO SILENCE THEM STRONGLY in the Name of Jesus through authoritative PRAYER. Whenever darkness forces attempt to destroy the doctrine of the Holy Trinity in the Christian Church, they are touching the Holy Throne of God and thus, IT IS TIME TO SILENCE THEM STRONGLY in the Name of Jesus. No negotiations are to be accepted. Whenever they start building false teachings against the true teaching of REPENTANCE AND REMISSION OF SINS that we have been given as a commandment from the risen Christ (Luke 24:47), IT’S TIME TO SILENCE THEM STRONGLY in the Name of Jesus and proclaim “the Peace He gave us”
PRAYER: Lord Jesus Christ, rebuke the unbelief windstorm from my heart today! Amen.
In Christ’s love
