PRAYER TO END THE CHAINS OF SLAVERY

This month of November Practical Prayer Assignment is very important and we want you to listen to this message and follow the powerful prayers to end the slavery in your family, marriage, workplace, etc.

1 Corinthians 7:21-23
Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather. For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord’s freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ’s servant.  Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.

Ecclesiastes 10:7 
I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.

HIGH RATE OF SLAVERY IN THE WORLD

Slavery involves the recruitment of people through the use of punishment, and force to work under pressure. In other words, slavery is a process enslaving people and thereby forcing them into a situation they don’t like doing. Many people have been plagued with the chain of slavery for exploitation and manipulations. These includes a case of forced labour, forced marriage, forced demonic act etc.

In Nigeria for example, it is a very common practice to see a family home attached with the chain of slavery. This particular curse affect the generation of people in the line of the family. At times comes, when it is difficult for people to become a boss of their home. The chain of slavery is bad signal of demonic bondage, inherited curses, backwardness, retrogression, embargo etc.

As we go along with us, there are powerful prayers established by the leading of the Holy Spirit. These prayers have been organised to set you free from the bondage of slavery. If you really want to end the era of slavery in your life, you must make sure you pray those prayers aggressively and with authority in the name of Jesus.

Quick prayers

1. I cancel the era of slavery unto joblessness in my life, in the name of Jesus.
2. Arrows of errors and mistakes fired into my life, backfire, in the name of Jesus.
3. I refuse to be used and dumped physically and spiritually, in the name of Jesus.

PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL FORM OF SLAVERY (HUMAN TRAFFICKING)

In the book of Genesis 9, the Bible makes us to understand that Noah’s youngest son, Ham saw the nakedness of his father and had him covered y his brothers. Noah then cursed Ham to be a servant to his brother forver

To be a slave physically is to be controlled on the will of your taskmaster whether it is convenient for you or not. To be a slave physically is to deny you of your certain right and freedom.  If you are employed by a person to work with him or her and the boss does not give you the right of decision and freedom then you are being enslaved. A slave master is person who does not want you to rise above the position where you are. The spiritual aspect of slavery is more devastating, as this might portend a meaning of punishment.

Spiritual slavery comes with a person following the pattern of evil inheritance and ancestral yoke. As long as a person is enslaved to demons spiritually or to strange people in the dream, he or she cannot prosper and move forward.

There are many people whose life has been subjected to a strongman. This strongman enslave them in order to delay their time of destiny. When you are enslaved spiritually, you will have no power to see the glory of God in your life.

Exodus 21:16 
And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.

When you are enslaved spiritually., The people that are finding it hard to be the head are those that are having foundational problems. It is very possible to see a great person with colourful destiny in the physical realm, but spiritually the person is under the control of King Uzziah. This means that the powers of your father’s house have tied down your virtues.  For you to remove the curse of slavery, you will need to get the power of the Holy Ghost before the curse can be broken from your life.

There is no problem when you are very unfortunate to be under somebody. But it is a great tragedy if your boss is threatening you. In the book Genesis 37:36 the Bible makes us to understand that the Midianites sold Joseph into slavery in Egypt to Potiphar, the courtier of Pharaoh. The yoke of slavery is a big attack against the children of God today.

The high number of slavery among adults today is caused by joblessness. It has made several people to remain stagnant and giving them the inability to fulfill their divine calling and purpose. The spirit of physical slavery could have been invited into your life through curses and evil foundation.

Unfortunately, Many people have been created to become great doctor, engineer, teacher, etc, but the enemy has blocked their ways. Some people cannot recognized that they have been enslaved both physically and spiritually and that is why they cannot move forward and produce excellent result.  I decree upon your life, your glory will shine forth, in the name of Jesus.

The Israelites’ departure from Egypt, however, is the most successful escape or deliverance from slavery in all history. Possibly millions of soul fully liberated from slavery in Egypt. They certainly deserved their freedom. The Bible describes their life in Egypt as being under “harsh conditions in every form of slavery.” (Exodus 1:11-14). The Israelites’ release from their unjust treatment in Egypt was duely because God himself intervened in the situation of long term bondage.

There are 5 major forms of slavery in the world today, these are not limited to:

1. Forced labour. This is a type of compulsory labour that indicates a situation where your taskmaster forced you to carryout a certain job or assignment that is against your capability. This can be done through the use of violence and intimidation.
2. Debt labour. It refers to a person who is assigned a job in order to repay a debt where the terms of agreements are not clearly stated. They are tricked into working for little or no pay, with no control over their debt. Most or all of the money they earn goes to pay off their loan. The person who is holding the debt has the control either to release it or not. To the eyes of God, it is a pure witchcraft practice.
3. Sex slavery. This is when a person is being hired for business for sexual exploitation of a girl child in exchange of something of value. It is very easy to find this wicked in most offices, schools, etc. In some cases, this type of slavery normally lead to forced marriage, employment opportunities, sudden promotion at workplace etc.
4. Child Slavery. Children from the age of 18 years can be enslaved in certain form of work. In this case, children can be coerced by their boss through bullying or the act of violence. In the modern days, our children have been sold into slavery in order to earn money for themselves or to take care of their family immediate needs. For example, a woman can employ the service of a maid and through that, some of these children can forcefully be enslaved to do certain work more than their capacities.
5. Domestic servitude. This usually affect most women . The master have controlled over them that gives the right to coerce them to perform a hard job. In most cases, this type of slavery can makes them more vulnerable to hard work, rape, insecurity, harassment.

Romans 8:1-2 
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

Slave is the opposite of progress. It is a spirit of shame and disgrace. In addition, it attacks ones confidence with people and scars their personality. Every time one is cursed, this curse goes into action to put people in bondage .

If it takes for you to come out from the chain of slavery the time is now. When you know as a Christian that you are enslaved with one thing or the other, you need to destroy the demonic yoke attached to your life. Because if you fail to address it on time with deliverance prayers, it will surely do the following things in your life. Introduce the season of hopelessness, depression, frustration, hatred, disfavour, etc. A person who is yoked with demonic curses will have nobody to help him.

When you struggle to come out from a forced labour with punishment, then you are binded to the chain of slavery. Perhaps you have been asking yourself what is wrong with me. You could be asking yourself who forced me to do this job. You may also be asking yourself, why do I become so low to allow this person to get at me. When you see somebody who is a Master degree holder and the person is doing a menial job, it means the greatness of the person has been tied down spiritually.

If you see yourself opening gate for someone at home, you have been enslaved spiritually. If you see yourself bowing down to your junior, then it is possible the spirit of inherited slavery is in place.

The topic of slavery is very sensitive topic our  pastor needs to teach their members oftentimes.  Because the situation is dealing with the deliverance of so many people. We must have tolerant for the spirit of delay. Those who want to remove the chain of slavery from their destiny, must be very aggressive in prayers.
