Witches are usually heartless. When the spirit is in operation in their lives, they even go to the extent of selling their loved ones to gain promotion in their covens. The powers weaken their victims and when defenseless, finally destroy them completely. Their strategy and purpose at times could be to weaken you and make you fall behind. This is when prayers become difficult and at this point the enemy goes for the kill. God gave us direct instruction in Exodus 22:18 to destroy witchcraft powers completely. Today, I decree every agenda of witchcraft for your life is destroyed now in Jesus name.
Some people, by mistake and manipulation, have found themselves in the net of the enemies either through food eaten, covenants entered into or evil associations. In the cause of prayers, it was revealed that their housemaid, which is a witch, had converted their sitting room into a coven where they hold meetings every night.

Bible Passage: Nahum 3:1-5
Witchcraft is the least, but most deadly and notorious department among the powers of darkness. The practitioners are very ruthless in their mode of operation.
From our Bible text, we see that they operate from a coven, which is also called the bloody city. This is often an invisible location, which could be on a tree or even a residential house. A couple came to me some time ago for prayers because of the strange experiences that they were having in their home.
In the cause of prayers, it was revealed that their housemaid, which is a witch, had converted their sitting room into a coven where they hold meetings every night. I sent some of my pastors to go and pray in that house and the witchcraft activities were terminated. May every coven in your house receive fire today in Jesus’ name.
Other locations of a coven are in market places, in the water, on riverbanks, and in bushes, among others.
Psalm 74:20 refers to a coven as the dark place of the earth and that it is full of the habitation of wickedness. That is why as a child of God, you should respect the covenant that you have with God as your security over the wickedness of this world. In a careful analysis of Nahum 3:1-5, we see that it is, indeed, a bloody city full of lies. Witches can never tell you the truth; they manipulate information to deceive men. They also engage in robbery, where the destinies of men are stolen. They steal women’s pregnancies thereby causing miscarriages. They also feed on the health of men and this leads to sicknesses that defy solution. May any witch feeding on your pregnancy or health die now in Jesus’ name.
A lady cried to my office one afternoon with her two children aged 8 and 6. She was obviously covered with fright as she narrated her strange experiences with these children. It dawned on her to seek help when the older child told her that morning that her body (flesh) looks good to eat. When I interviewed the children carefully, I discovered that they had been initiated into witchcraft by one of their teachers at school through the sharing of birthday food items. You must be careful of what you permit your children to eat.
The first verse of our Bible text says: “The prey departeth not.” This means that they are never short of victims in the coven. They capture their prey like goats tied to a tree and it is difficult for them to escape except with the help of God. That is why Isaiah 49:24 says, “shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?” Some people, by mistake and manipulation, have found themselves in the net of the enemies either through food eaten, covenants entered into or evil associations.
You must be spiritually sensitive and careful with what you eat and the places you go to in search of solutions to your problems.
A lot of people have become lawful captives today by reason of their carelessness. The word of God says that there is deliverance for such persons, but you have to contend for it (Isaiah 49:24-26).
Prayer Points
• O Lord, expose and disgrace every witchcraft operation in my family in Jesus’ name.
• Any witch that is sitting on my destiny, receive fire in Jesus’ name.
• Every coven in my house be scattered by fire.
• Anyone going to witchcraft meeting because of me will not return, I cast them into perpetual sleep in Jesus’ name.
