Stop the Prodigal Life

Thursday 12 November
READ: Lk. 15: 11 - 32
MORE LESSON: Jer. 3: 12 -15

There was a son of a wealthy man in the Bible who took his share of the father's property and travelled to a far country. He left the security, love and abundance in his father's house and went to see the world for himself. He was a prince in his father's house but he became a slave in the world where he sank into penury and was struggling to eat with pigs. The Bible calls him the prodigal son: the son who wandered away.

Many children of God have left home and have travelled far into the world of sin and suffering. They have forsaken the riches of God's grace, and as pigs eat dirt and filth, so they are living in mire with the pigs of the world: partying, fornicating, lying, cheating and stealing, drug abuse and alcohol addiction are filth that has become food to them. A daughter of God well brought up with the Word of God grows up and gains admission into the university and starts living in with an unbeliever-boy, who defiles, debases and even beats her and she says she can't leave him. That is eating with the pigs because she has wandered away from her Father's home.
The prodigal life is a terrible life. it reduces a prince to a drug addict-beggar and a princess to a prostitute with no sense of self worth anymore. Whatever prodigal life you have gone into, it is time to return home.

This reminds me of an intelligent young man who finished secondary school in flying colours. When the enemy attacked him with the spirit of prodigal living, he packed his baggage from the city where he was and went back to his village. He got admission to the university but discarded it and went to the village, where he had no father, mother or sibling. He had only one companion that he sat and talked with: a mad man. The mad man was his closest friend whom he chatted with from morning till evening every day. Then one day, some people that cared about him came to take him forcefully from the village. As they were dragging him away, the mad man was crying, “Please don't leave me, why are you going, who will play with me when you are gone?” This boy was well to do, respectable and intelligent before the enemy attacked him. They brought him to me and I broke every attack of the prodigal spirit over him. I prayed for him, made sure he got admission again and registered and attended a higher institution. He is a successful man now to the glory of God.

Prodigal living can be as a result of your choice of a life of sin or a demonic influence upon you. But whatever the case today I declare that an end has come to your prodigal life, in Jesus’ name. Return home to God your Father, He is waiting for you.

Prayer/Action
* Command every strange satanic manifestation to be broken over your life now.
* Rebuke any bondage in your life to be broken now by fire, in the name of Jesus.
* Command the spirit of soundness to come upon you, in the name of Jesus.

PROPHETIC PRAYER
There is the glory of the sun, the moon, and the stars, I shall operate in the highest of the glories, in the mighty name of Jesus.
