WHY DOES WHENEEVER I PRAY ABOUT THE SINS OF A CITY, STATE, OR COUNTRY I GET ATTACKED WITH THOSE SINS?  

I have noticed this to be a commen trend.  

If I pray about drugs, I get tempted to use drugs, even though I never touched them before.  Alchohal, same thing.  Prostitution, same thing.  

With stuff I have sinned in before like pornography, I get attacked with that.  It would seem logical for this to happen, but not stuff you have never dealt with.

I prayed about violence in this country, and I had alot of violence happen to me and to my possessions.  Someone shot both my cars in the winshield and craxked both of them.  Someone else slashed my tire on my car when I left it at my house.  I live in one of the nicest parts of the city, and it is like a gated community, which makes it stranger.  

I prayed about moral character and I got lied about and slandered against from my manager, switched to the graveyard shift, and they illegally stole around $3,000 from my paychecks since March.  At my other job, I was told by someone he didn't like me because of my morals.  A bill incorrectly claimed by a company to the IRS sent to me.  ETC...

What is the deal with this?  I have had someone randomly try stabbing me, a couple people try running me over.  Every country or state I have been to I have had it said to me at least once (quite randomly), that they didn't like me, they hated me, they wanted to kill me, I needed to leave their land and leave them alone.  I have been gettibg this stuff happening since I got saved back in 1999.  If I was someone of a threat to Satan, wouldn't more positive things happen that would cause this stuff to happen?  I know I am not a man who has walked in righteousness, as my actions have shown.  I don't understand this.  I am not anybody special.  

I like blunt persecution, where people randomly come up and give there speal about why they hate me and want to kill me and to leave them alone.  It's pretty obvious to tell where they are coming from, and who is really talking through them.  This other stuff is to subtle, to really understand if it is persecution, or coincidance.

DOES THIS HAPPEN TO ANY ELSE?  and WHY?

You are almost asking if God is singling you out.  The answer would be yes, He is.  But don't get overly excited - He singles us each out.

I'm sure someone has suggested that you read or re-read the book of Job.

Romans 5:3-5 (NASB)
And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.


God bless - keep looking up.

        Hello David:

    The closer you get to God.The harder Satan will try pulling you back to him.Satan must want you back REAL bad to go through all that.I hope Satan is losing his battle trying to get you back to him.
     I will pray that God gives you His strength to endure what you are going through.

                  Yours in Yeshua,

Ohhhh man!! brother David!!!! You have just learned the life of an intercessor! You see, when you pray about drugs, you are going up against some of the most powerful demons on the planet. The drug section of satan's dominion is a major player in his kingdom.

So when you "interceded" against them, you caught their attention because no doubt you thwarted their plans they had devised. I can just see Michael steppin in and slapping that drug demon around because of your prayers. The spiritual wicked ones in the heavenlies hate being visited by the holy angels of God.

What you need to do is take authority over these slimebags in the name of Jesus, and command them to get out of your life immediately.

I know what I'm talking about here because my mother is an intercessor, called by the Holy Sppirit to do so. And every time she intercedes, she takes authority over the devil, and his entire empire in the name of Jesus. And I'll tell ya, satan runs away from her like a whipped dog with his tail between his legs. He won't go up against her because she knows her God-given rights.

Hope that helps ya brother. Let me know how things go after you command the devils to leave in the name of Jesus.

I would agree with others here...your prayers are very effective, don't give up...keep on keeping on...the persecution also purifies your soul... Roll Eyes

Father I do pray for protection for this servant of yours, give him more insight into Your purposes and plans, let his prayer life abound in Your strength and grace...and send support as needed so he won't lose heart.

I fully agree with ZekDar:

When you interceed on behalf of others, you move things in the spiritual realm and foil Satan's plans. You must be doing something right to stir up Satan, otherwise he wouldn't come against you so strongly.  I will pray for you through these trial and tests.  Remembering that just as gold is purified by acid, so are we by trials and tribulations.  Love and God Bless, Eva

This is for David ,,hi David,
I am a Christian and a pacific ,it is my nature ,i did not practice that i was born like that(a pacific( a newfie)
 but if i would see  person(old person, handicap person) or a child being rape, and had no one ,or no way to help them but to kill.
"I, Me ,Def,would do it"Kill" without no hesitation and no remorse.
and that would be the mystery ,no remorse.
The reason is that the situation was not called for..It was met for pure evil..
love in Jesus Def.(+¸+)
