We recorded 2 videos this evening for upload to our channel @thespiritualwarrior2016. The prayer session was very intense.
Which reminds me of the intensity of Hannah’s Prayer.
Hannah’s sister-wife Peninnah, was a bully. But she had more children than she could care for.
Whereas Hannah, the calm, coolheaded and God loving woman was barren.
One day, the bullying was more than Hannah could bear. Instead of wasting energy in confronting Peninah, Hannah took her troubles to God.
Even in the house of prayer, the man of God misunderstood her heartfelt prayers for the ravings of a drunken woman.
Calmly, Hannah explained what she was doing and why she was doing it.
And the Man of God blessed her, and God confirmed the word of his servant- Hannah became a mother of several children- including the famous Prophet Samuel!
God indeed transformed the life of Hannan.
Read the story in 1 Samuel 1- end. Read Hannah’s song of deliverance in 1st Samuel chapter 2.
Today, I stand with you in prayer that God will remember you for good and rapidly respond to your prayer request, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.
Stay in faith.
Stay encouraged, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

My prayer for you is that you will master your situation and circumstances and be the best version of you, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.
Which brings to mind Timothy.
(Read 1 & 2 Timothy).
Timothy was really a controversial figure to be in a leadership position.
He was young, sickly, and from a biracial family. He was so low on self-esteem that Apostle Paul exhorted him to not allow anyone to take advantage of him, but rather, to be an example to other Believers in conduct, faith, love and speech (1 Timothy 4:12).
Fast forward to 2 Timothy 3:16-17 where the Apostle Paul referred to Timothy as dear Son!
What a transformation!
Timothy who started out with so many disadvantages made his mentor Apostle Paul, very proud to refer to him as a dear Son.
What are the issues that you are holding unto as disadvantages?
Health issues, age, racial or gender discrimination should never deter you from attaining your goals.
Let Timothy’s transformation be an example that will motivate you to reinvent yourself.
#MyPrayer4You
Today, I command those disadvantages to convert to advantages and bring you to the limelight.
I declare that you are a city set on a hill that cannot be ignored.
Your ministry, marriage, family, business and spiritual life shall prosper.
I release to you now, the anointing of God’s Spirit that brings transformation!
Go! And radiate God’s glory in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Today was such a gloriously busy day. We recorded our next videos for our YouTube channel @thespiritualwarrior2016.
We absolutely enjoy sharing our faith in God with others.
Which reminds me of how committed the Apostle Paul was when he said;
”…this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
(Philippians 3:13-14 KJV)
The Apostle Paul had to work harder than all the other Apostles.
Although he faced strong opposition from his contemporaries, and was discriminated against because of his background, he never slowed down!
He kept reaching forward for excellence. Eventually, he established his self worth and authority.
What excuses can you hide behind as the reason for failures, mediocrity, and your desire to quit living?
When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
You don’t quit because of frustrating circumstances.
Instead, you frustrate the circumstances and then master them.
You make adversity work for you. You use them as a stepping stone to greater heights.
A born again child of God is a mighty warrior in God’s army.
We establish perimeters, set goals, and fight the good fight of faith.
Although the Apostle Paul was compelled to struggle more than others, it paid off for him and us.
How? He became one of the most influential followers of Christ, about half of the New Testament is attributed to Paul and those who were influenced by life and works in ministry!
If his detractors could not stop him, and he overcame all the obstacles of discrimination and attained excellence in life and ministry, Beloved, you too can attain excellence In life and ministry, you can do it.
Today. I stand with you in prayers to encourage and to ignite a fire in you.
You are who God says you are.
You can become the best at what you do without compromising your beliefs or work ethics. Go for it – Excel, for as a Christian you are the excellent creation of God. Know who you are.
Let us Pray
Prayer Points
Thank God for the gift of life.

Affirm that upward and forward is your path in life.
Release spiritual blindness on all monitoring evil spirits and command all their monitoring devices to disintegrate.
Declare that in the presence of detractors, you will fulfill God’s purpose for your life.
I pray for you that from henceforth, you effort will be emotionally fulfilling and financially rewarding in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Bible Base: Philippians 4:6 “Be anxious for nothing…
What Are Anxiety Attacks? When unexpected fear and panic overwhelm you, you’re experiencing anxiety attacks.
In today’s world-with rising living costs, job insecurity, family separations, and even fears surrounding immigration enforcement, anxiety is more common than ever.
While these are truly challenging times, remember:
anxiety is a part of life, but how you handle it can determine whether you thrive or suffer.
Understanding Your Anxiety
Identify the Triggers: Take a moment to ask yourself,
“Why am I anxious?” Pinpointing the source of your anxiety can help you process and manage the unfavorable outcomes.
Reflect Like the Psalmist: Consider the words of the Psalmist: “Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why the unease within me?”
After discovering the cause, he encouraged himself, “Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him.”
Facing Your Fears
Visualize Outcomes: Imagine both the worst-case and best-case scenarios.
Remember: confronting your fears diminishes their power, whereas avoiding them only allows them to grow.
Scriptural Assurance: The Bible reminds us in 1 John 4:18 that “perfect love drives out fear,” and 2 Timothy 1:7 tells us God has given us a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline.
Do Not Run: Facing your issues head-on prevents the enemy from exploiting your fears (see John 10:10).
Choose the outcome you desire-likely the best-case scenario-and work toward it with courage.
Strengthening Your Faith Confront your fears with unwavering faith in God. As Hebrews 11:6 says, “Without faith it is impossible to please Him.” Ask yourself:
Do I believe that God is for me?
Do I believe that God loves me?
Do I believe that God can change my circumstances?
Do I love God? (Remember: perfect love casts out fear. If you love God, you can confidently trust that He’s got you.)
Hinging Your Faith on Who God Is
God’s Promise: Romans 8:28 assures us that God works all things for the good of those who love Him.
Never let worst-case scenarios dictate your fear.
God’s Faithfulness: 2 Timothy 2:13 reminds us that whether our faith wavers or not, God remains faithful.
Victory Through Faith: Let your faith in God be your spiritual therapy. It brings peace and empowers you to confront challenges as a victor, not a victim (1 John 5:4).
A Born-Again Reminder: If you are born again, remember 1 John 4:4: “The One who is in you is greater than the one in the world.” And as Romans 8:31 asks, “If God is for you, who can be against you?”
Nourishing Your Mind Your mind is a major battlefield in spiritual warfare. Feed it with the Word of God:
Daily Bible Reading: Let Colossians 3:16 inspire you to allow the doctrines of Christ to dwell in you richly.
Pray Without Anxiety: When your thoughts are grounded in Scripture, you won’t be overwhelmed by anxiety. Instead, you’ll present your requests to God through prayer and supplication.
Remember, fear comes in when you anchor your thoughts on negatives. And fear has torment. So, do not fear. Confront your fears with faith in God.
Prayer Points for Deliverance
Thankfulness: Thank God for the gift of your life.
Acknowledge & Declare: Admit your anxiety, then declare that God’s peace now floods your soul.
Use your Authority in Christ: In the name of Jesus, command the spirits of torment, fears, anxieties, and their relatives, to leave your space and world of influences.
Affirm that you have been given the spirit of power, love and self-control and are now bold and brave.
Present Your Requests: Bring your heartfelt prayers and thanksgiving before God.
Closing Blessing I speak peace to your soul. I pray that God who works in you, will perfect all that concerns you, Be well-in your mind, body, and spirit, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Hey precious friend. Trust your month is going well.
You could send a prayer request or share your testimony with me as well. It will be encouraging.
I really do need God’s mercy to prevail in my life. He did it for Abigail, I know that He will do it in my life as well.
If you need to experience God’s prevailing mercy, then join me in this prayer as I use what God did for Abigail as a point of contact.
Abigail was married to Nabal whose name means “the fool”.
His foolishness was of epic proportion because he dared to insult an exiled anointed king who was a warrior!
King David was so angry that he decided to avenge the insult.
When Abigail heard how her husband had released the spirit of death over their household, she quickly intervened and stopped David from his murderous rage.
The foolish Nabal suffered a paralysis and later died.
Eventually Abigail became the wife of King David – a far more exalted position than what she was. Read about Abigail in 1 Samuel 25, 2 Samuel 3:3)
Today, we shall prayer fully ask God to:
a). Supernaturally intervene to stop all negative decree, decisions, rulings, etc that will affect us, our children or generations following.
b). Declare that the Godly wisdom that enables you to do the right things at the right time, is manifesting in your life.
c). Proclaim that God’s mercy is Prevailing over all barriers, bottlenecks of bureaucracy, resistances, roadblocks, decrees, policies that are attempting to frustrate your
your unprecedented progress.
d) Declare that grace and favor are working relentlessly and you will be singled out for supernatural favors- for God is causing All things to work together for your good.
e) Command to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ, all the evil spirits that are working against your next levels.
f). Declare that nothing can stop you from attaining your goals, fulfilling your dreams or from sharing your testimony of favorable circumstances and miraculous interventions.
I stand with you in prayers, and declare that your expectations will be granted and the book of remembrance is opened and your case will be revisited in your favor, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ
If you have not subscribed to my YouTube @thespiritualwarrior2016 please do so.
We have been discussing spiritual warfare practically.
If David a mere man could remember Abigail and blessed her, rest in the knowledge that God will remember you for favors
Read Psalm 86:17.
God bless you.
Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, Ph.D.,#TheSpiritualWarrior, February 9th 2025.
Today, my mind was flooded with thoughts on those who suffered losses-spouses, children, parents, properties.
How are they processing it? What will the outcome be for them?
Some suffer losses and have mental health issues.
Whereas, some recover and have abundance of blessings.
Which reminds me of Ruth the Moabitess-a childless young widow.
Ruth was no stranger to loss. Both her father in law and brother-in-law also died. She was a woman acquainted with grief.
But she had encountered God through her mother-in-law.
And when faced with a choice to return to her people, she chose to continue her relationship with God, despite her losses.
Although her mother in law tried to dissuade her with the gory details of past failures and future hardships, Ruth held fast to her faith in God.
Though her sister-inlaw Orpah returned to her family Ruth couldn’t not abandon her mother in law who was grieving too.
And God rewarded her fully for her faith and how she lovingly cared for her mother-in-law.
Read the Story in the book of Ruth.
Are you feeling hopeless because of your losses?
Let the story of Ruth encourage you.
If you need a spouse, God is still in the business of joining people.
Whatever your losses or your needs are, God is still Provider, Protector, Rewarder of diligence, and Restorer.
Be faithful. Be dedicated to doing the right things.
The Bible says in Jonah 2:8 that “they that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy “.
If Ruth had considered the hopelessness of her situation with her mother-in-law, and refrained from going with her, what would her story be?
Ruth did not observe lying vanities. She obtained mercy from God. She married well, had a son, and became the great grandmother of King David and an ancestor of Jesus Christ .
God will restore you to greater glory. Don’t give up.
My prayer is that you should continue to be steadfast in your faith and let God be God in your life.
I stand against all hindrances and lying vanities that are trying to distract you from the path of progress and excellence.
Be restored and enjoy peace with prosperity in the matchless name of Jesus Christ .
I am taking emails and prayer requests .

Subject: Transformation 6: Deliver our children from trauma O God.
We respond differently to intensely stressful situations.
Children who were involved or who witnessed distressing events such as sexual abuses, accidents, natural disasters, etc. can be overwhelmed emotionally or physically.
Because their coping skills are not yet developed, what happened to them or what they witnessed, can have long term effects on them.
Which reminds me of the traumatic event that defined Absalom’s life.
Absalom, David’s third son, had a sister named Tamar.
Tamar was raped (sexually abused) by her half brother Amnon. He humiliated her further by throwing her out.
In her shame and pain, she cried out to Absalom who was her full-brother. He took in his sister and cared for her, for her reputation was ruined!
For two years, their Father David never confronted the issues, and never did.
And for those 2 years, Absalom seethed in anger against both dad and brother.
Eventually, he arranged the cold blooded murder of his brother, and exiled himself, in fear of repercussions from dad.
After an intervention by his uncle, both son and dad were partially reconciled after 3 years.
But the underlying issues were never confronted.
Even though Absalom was pardoned, he was not restored. David refused to have any relationship with him.
For an additional 2 years he lived in disgrace in the same city that the events happened.
Which further fed his deep seated anger and resentment against his dad.
In revenge, he began to stealthily undermine his father’s rule, to attract attention. But dad ignored him.
After 4 years, he cracked fully. There was full-blown rebellion and he declared himself king.
A war ensued, and Absalom was killed. Read the bulk of the story in 2nd Samuel, chapters 13-19.
Although David regained his throne, but, at what cost?
Many of us as parents may have traumatized our children further by our inactions and actions, thereby, deforming their personalities for life.
1). Can you relate to the issues raised in this narrative?
2). Are you currently isolated by your children?
3). Are you ready to
restitute, reconcile and restore your children or be restored by them and lead a transformed life?
4). Are you ready to pray?
We must learn from the mistakes of others and not perpetuate them.
The Bible says, in 1 Corinthians 10:11, that these things happened to them as examples, and are written for our admonition.
Call to Action: #PrayerPoints4Today – Christian Spiritual Therapy

Do you know that Ahitophel hid his disdain for David so well that He never suspected him. Which hurt David deeply that he wrote in Psalm 41 David declared,
“…mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me….”
And he also prayed-
“O LORD. I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahitophel into foolishness “ (2 Samuel 25:31)
Read the story in 2 Samuel 16:23- 17:14
Let us Pray-
#PrayerPoints4Today:
*Ask that God in His infinite mercy expose all Frendnemies in your life
*Forgive them all. So that your prayers will not be hindered, and the devil cannot take advantage of unforgiveness to complicate issues for you.
*And like David pray,
“…O LORD, be merciful unto me, And raise me up…” Psalm 41:10
I Pray earnestly that God will supernaturally intervene to grant you favors, and overturn all evil decisions in your favor, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

Subject: Restoration 4- Deliverance from satanic attacks.
Today was one of those days for me that should have started well, but the enemy tried to frustrate my mission to the world. Thank God that the blood of Jesus is speaking better things on my behalf.
Which reminds me of how King David’s day went and how the enemy got him, but God delivered him.
Apparently David was fatigued and decided to stay back from the ongoing war.
After a restful day, he took a stroll on his porch. And saw a woman having a bath, which stirred up lustful desires.
From that day, his life went south. (Read 2 Samuel 11:1-27)
Why?
He fell for “The lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes”(1 John 2:16)
Because he was a man after God’s heart did not absolve him from divine justice.
God sent the Prophet Nathan to him, and David repented. But the child conceived in adultery died, as part of divine justice.
While the curses of death and violence were running on course, David’s son Absalom revolted against him.
His best friend Ahitophel, the wisest counselor in his court, sided with the rebellious son.
But David cried out to God for mercy, and the wise counsel of Ahitophel was countered with the foolishness of Hushai.
David was restored to the throne and Ahitophel committed suicide.
That sin was the leverage the forces of evils used to torment, oppress, and intimidate David.
Today, my prayer is that all “Frendnemies” in your life shall be exposed, and their works destroyed, in the name of Jesus Christ.
I identify with all the ways you yielded to the voice of the enemy, and stand with you as we acknowledge that we sinned.
I stand with you and receive forgiveness of sins and cleansing from all unrighteousness.
As God’s Oracle, I stand with you against the evil spirits of lusts. I declare that their holds over your mind, desire, affection and volition are removed.
You are set free from yielding to mastubation, sex outside marriage, marital infidelity, incest, rape, pedophilia, and all sexual sins, for sin shall no longer dominate you.
I proclaim that the speaking Blood of Jesus Christ has proclaimed your salvation, deliverance and restoration, therefore all voices of accusations that are speaking against you are silenced forevermore.
All the handwritings of ordinances working against you are destroyed.
Going forward, you shall no longer yield to satanic promptings, for you are filled and led by the Holy Spirit.
I declare that your mind, desire, affection and all other faculties of your Soul and Bodie are yielded to God.
I declare that there is restoration to Godly standards in all aspects and facets of your life, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.
I would like to hear from you about how this prayer resonated with you.
Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, Ph.D., #TheSpiritualWarrior, February 4th, 2025.
I had a very busy day working on the second edition and also the audio of Demons Deactivated.
I’m all emotional as I read Haggai 2:9. It speaks to the deep longing of my soul. And I receive it with a resounding AMEIN!
Perhaps you are at a very perplexing place in your life and are thinking that the good days are over.
Don’t lose your faith in God. There are better days ahead. The best is yet to come!
Which reminds me of all the challenges of Moses.
He was born at the wrong time-when infants were being murdered.
But God saved, protected and preserved him.
Next, he tried to do a good thing and ended up a murderer.
He thought his sin was well hidden but it was thrown in his face by a person he tried helping.
Can you relate with this story so far?
From the comfort of Pharaoh’s palace, he ended up a fugitive in the wilderness.
Then God remembered Moses and brought him back as a Very Important Personality (VIP)
The fugitive became the God appointed Leader of a large company of people.
What a great honor .
What a promotion!
I pray that all your painful experiences are translating to elevation, confirmation, and supernatural favors.
Every obstacle in your path is right now converting to stepping stones.
Nothing can impede your progress because protocols have been bypassed for you.
All negative issues that were pending against you, are hereby canceled.
No evil shall prosper against you. Rejoice for this is the year of Enjoying the AWESOMENESS of God, in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. Shout hallelujah.
