Each Prayer Includes a Bold Statement to:
Repent of wayward choices.
Renounce what you no longer align with.
Revoke all undesirable agreements and contracts.
Release demonic interference.
THE POWER AND THE PRICE OF FREE WILL
You’ve been entrusted with a sacred gift: free will. It beckons you to choose—any road you want, any dream you chase. But beware—this world operates on a law far older than statutes: cause and effect. In reality, every move ripples forward, carrying consequences that echo into eternity. The choices we make now echo forever—leading us either into eternal separation or glorious communion with our loving Creator.
Paul bluntly reminds us, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” ~ Romans 3:23
This timeless truth underscores our universal need for grace and redemption.
7 STEPS TO REALIGN WITH GOD'S WILL
REFLECT on your motives and desires that are out of alignment with the Creator.
“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” ~ Proverbs 4:23
REPENT before God, offering a heartfelt apology for your wayward thoughts, words, and deeds.
“Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out.” ~ Acts 3:19
RENOUNCE the distractions and forces that pull you away from the Creator.
“It (God’s grace)… instructs us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives…” ~ Titus 2:11-12
REVOKE and release all demonic influences seeking to disrupt your peace.
“Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” ~ James 4:7
REJOICE, expressing gratitude to the Creator, Jesus, and the angels for their guidance and protection.
“Rejoice in the Lord always… do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” ~ Philippians 4:4-7
REVIEW your weaknesses each night, be intentional about what still needs work.
“Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves.” ~ 2 Corinthians 13:5
RESOLVE to change the thoughts, words and deeds that pull you away from God.
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” ~ Romans 12:2
WHY THIS FRAMEWORK MATTERS
Free will isn’t a license, it’s a responsibility. Every choice stakes a claim on your destiny.
Sin isn’t obscure or distant, it’s universal. That’s why grace matters more than ever.
Spiritual tools like repentance, renunciation, and rejoicing—aren’t just religious jargon.
They’re actionable ways to partner with God’s transformative power.
Nightly reviews plus resolution foster deeper spiritual growth and alignment with God over time.

GENERIC RENUNCIATION AND RELEASE PRAYER
This prayer is intended to help you break free from any form of demonic interference. Before you begin, read through the entire document carefully. As you pray, feel free to include any areas of your life where you’ve experienced involvement—whether these actions were done to you or by you.
If you are the parent or legal guardian of a child whose mental capabilities are age sixteen or under, you can intercede for them and include them in this prayer. However, do not use this prayer on anyone else unless you have training. Otherwise, you may be picking a fight with demons that you have no authority over and no protection against.
When you are ready to begin, speak the prayer aloud with faith and conviction. Remember, this prayer is simply a template—there is no “right” or “wrong” way to pray. Use your own words from the heart as you invite God’s power and protection into your life.
————————————————————————————–
Heavenly Father,
I come before You with a humble heart, asking for Your protection over me and my family. Please shield us from any interference by spirit beings during this time. Holy Spirit, I invite Your guidance, and ask that You reveal to me any areas in my life where I may be out of alignment with Your will. If there are any fragments, alters, or sub-personalities that may cause disruption, I pray that they be kept away as we work together.
I admit that I have (name the offense). I know this is against your will. I truly want to stop this behavior(s). I accept your promise of forgiveness and am grateful for your gift of cleansing me of this unrighteousness.
I make null and void any contracts or vows ever made with any and all demonic kingdoms. I give no consent for any demon power to continue to harass me, no matter how they have gained admission to my body, mind, soul and emotions.
Holy Spirit, I ask that you show me anything else which I need to change, so that I (and my underage children) may be totally free from the consequences of any unholy choices I have made.
(Pause, while listening as the Holy Spirit leads you.)
Father, I ask for forgiveness and to be delivered of every curse, every spirit of infirmity, addiction, allergy, pain and suffering associated with these unholy choices. Cleanse my spirit, my mind, and every part of my body which has been affected by these choices. I now proclaim that Satan and his demons have no right to mislead and manipulate me.”
————————————————————————————–
If you are not afraid of demonic forces and truly believe you have the authority, through the name of Jesus, to cast them out, you are encouraged to include the “Binding and Casting Out Demons” prayer on the next page. However, if you do not have a strong connection with Jesus or lack confidence in His power to deliver you, evicting the demons will likely be less affective. Instead, send your petition to the Creator, the Most High God. You can also reach out to me for support, or explore additional teachings and resources available on my YouTube channel. You can also strengthen your understanding by reading the Bible yourself and downloading the over 200 scriptures referenced in my ten-part video series on demonology at theresacrabtree.com/bible-studies/
BINDING AND CASTING OUT DEMONS PRAYER
By the authority granted to me in Jesus Christ, I revoke all access, rights, or claims that any evil spirit has had over my life—whether through lies, deception, trauma, agreements, or any other means. I break every curse, oath, covenant, and legal right the enemy has held against me. I close every door that I or my ancestors have opened to darkness, sealing them with the blood of Jesus. I now declare that Satan and his demons no longer have any legal right to mislead, manipulate, or control me.
In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, I call attention to every demon attached to me—whether coming, going, circulating freely, or in any way connected to my life. You are now under the authority of the risen Lord Jesus Christ. I bind you and command that you will not harm me or anyone connected to me. You will not hide, leave, seek help from others, or move on to someone else. You will not split, divide, multiply, fragment, clone, or delegate your duties to any other demon. Any parts of you residing in others or elsewhere, I call back now and command you to unite as one.
Now, I command you to immediately repair any damage you’ve caused to me or those connected to me. Restore all things to their proper order, in the name of Jesus Christ. I command you to pack your belongings, take any equipment, implants, seeds, energetic debris, and fully pull up any roots you have planted. Take it all with you. Gather your entire kingdom, ranks, and all associated members, and unite as one. Now go directly into the abyss or wherever Jesus Christ sends you. Completely release me, in the name of Jesus Christ. You have no legal right to remain. This is a command, and it must be obeyed. Go, now!
If any demons dare to linger or resist, Lord Jesus, I ask that You send Your angels to bind them and torment them by all means necessary until they depart. Escort them to the abyss or wherever they can no longer cause harm to anyone. By faith, I receive freedom from all demonic influences in my life, inherited from both my choices and those of my ancestors.
Holy Spirit, I invite You to fill every part of me. Grant me discernment to recognize Your will clearly, and help me reject the deception of all forces that rebel against You.
Thank You, Father, Lord Jesus, and Holy Spirit, for setting me free. Amen.
Additional Instructions:
If you feel tension or discomfort in specific parts of your body during this prayer, it may indicate that demons are holding on. Repeat the command for them to leave several times until your body feels more relaxed. If they try to control your body or cause mental confusion, say, “I bind all demonic powers in, on, or around me, and I command you to be silent and still, in the name of Jesus Christ.” This usually calms the disturbance.
The goal is to bind them temporarily, giving you space to complete the process. Pray for help from the Creator and Jesus to overcome their resistance and to strengthen your courage and faith.
Not a believer in Jesus?
I personally believe that every person has the authority to cast out demons from their body and soul, much like one would command an intruder to leave their home. However, stronger demons may hide or resist, making it hard to release them alone. Without the authority of Jesus Christ—who holds the keys to the demonic realm—they are unlikely to be sent into the abyss. But if you are willing to command the demons to go to the feet of Jesus and trust that He will direct them where He chooses, your chances of releasing them improve. Once they leave, they can only return if there are still open doors that grant them access. The SoulCleanse process helps identify and close those doors, but you must also do your “inner work” by addressing fears, beliefs, and behaviors that leave you vulnerable to demonic influence.
What Can I Expect from Doing This Exercise?
Everyone’s experience is unique, so what you encounter may vary. If there are demonic influences involved, you might feel their presence through anxiety, often manifesting as a sudden headache, a queasy stomach, muscle tension, or other bodily sensations. They may try to delay the process by creating distractions or making you feel drowsy when you attempt the exercise. In some cases, they might use fear tactics, such as inducing nightmares or causing minor pain like pinches or pokes. You may also experience intrusive thoughts such as, “This isn’t real,” “This isn’t safe,” or threats like, “You’re too weak to fight me; you’ll regret this. We’ll hurt your family.” These are lies, and it’s important to reject them.
When demons are released, it’s usually subtle, often occurring through the breath—like deep sighs, coughing, burping, or yawning. Some people feel the demons leave from different parts of their bodies, while others might experience vomiting or expelling a bile-like substance. It’s a good idea to have a plastic bucket and tissues nearby, just in case.
Whether you’re dealing with demons or not, you may experience various changes in the days following the exercise. If demons have been affecting your body, you may feel physical healing taking place. Some people feel more energized, while others may need more rest as their energies realign. Emotional shifts are common as well, and many people report feeling a greater sense of inner peace and clarity.
Remember, this prayer targets demons that entered through one specific door. You might still have others that entered through different doorways. Just like with this prayer, be ready to stop and repent for any wrongdoing on your part. Then, using the prayer as a template, renounce the fear, belief, experience, or activity that allowed those influences to take hold, and repeat the casting-off process.
If you’re already dealing with demons that manifest violently, it’s advisable to have someone with you during this exercise. Fasting and prayer beforehand can help make the process smoother. The most stubborn demons are often the last to leave. If they resist departure, you may need additional support from an experienced deliverance minister to help them go.
If you have Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), paranoia, or schizophrenia, it’s important to have someone with you when doing this exercise. This is because your true self may be so intertwined with the demonic influences that an “identity crisis” or “inner conflict” could arise. The positive side, however, is that this could be an opportunity for you to rediscover and re-create your true self.
Final Note: Sometimes what seems like demonic interference is actually a result of unprocessed trauma, learned behaviors, fear, or other factors. Therefore, doing “inner work” to release these blocks and close any open doors is key to preventing vulnerability to such influences. At the bottom of my website, you will find many resources to help you to get free and stay free.

Tattoos, Scarification, Piercings and Body Alterations: Spiritual Perspectives
Judaism Prohibition
The Bible speaks clearly on the matter of marking or altering the body. In Leviticus 19:28, God commands: “You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo any marks on you: I am the Lord.” This law was given in the context of Israel being set apart from surrounding pagan nations, many of whom engaged in body marking, self-cutting, and tattooing as acts of mourning or religious devotion to false gods. The intent was to protect God’s people from spiritual contamination and idolatrous practices that open doors to demonic influence.
Islamic Teachings
The Prophet Muhammad, the founder of Islam, strongly prohibited practices of altering one’s body. He cursed both the one who performs tattoos and the one who gets them (authentic Hadith). This ruling reflects the belief that altering God’s creation is a rejection of His design and can be spiritually dangerous.
Christian View
According to 1 Corinthians 6:19-20: “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit…? Therefore, honor God with your bodies.” Christians are urged to treat their bodies with reverence. The Holy Spirit dwells within believers, and intentionally scarring or marking the body goes against the idea of honoring God’s temple.
The Spiritual Realm
Many spiritual teachers and testimonies suggest that tattoos, scarification, piercings, and body alterations are more than physical — they can be spiritual portals.
In ancient times, body alterations were used in ritual ceremonies to dedicate oneself to spirits or gods. The act of drawing blood through needles or cutting is seen as a blood covenant, which has deep significance in the spiritual realm (Leviticus 17:11: “For the life of the flesh is in the blood.” Leviticus 17:11) These acts can unknowingly become spiritual contracts, inviting demonic influence.
Demonic Influence
Satanic images, pagan gods, or occult imagery (e.g., pentagrams, all-seeing eye) often serve as open doors for demonic oppression.
Swastikas, gang symbols, racist slogans, and violent imagery promote hate and bloodshed, the playground of demons.
Tattoos of saints, angels, sun/moon/stars, animals (real or mythological) may seem harmless but whenever reliance or reverence of the created is put before the Creator, it is a win for the Dark.
Most body alterations (other than restorative) are inspired by demons, influencing people to desecrate their body, the temple of God.
The intention behind a seemingly innocent tattoo can open doors to demonic interference.
Some people tattoo or pierce themselves or their children for cultural or protective reasons, not realizing they may be calling upon false gods (demons), opening doors to demonic interference.
Demons are territorial and possessive. Tattoos, scarification, and certain piercings can act as claims of ownership.
Some tattoo artists places spells, curses or consciously activate demonic influences as they work or in the ink itself.
Marks of Ownership
God marks His people with the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13).
Satan imitates this by marking those under his influence through tattoos and alterations.
God’s desire is to protect you — spiritually and physically. He wants you to remain set apart, holy, and pure in body, mind and spirit. Whereas Satan’s desire is to occupy your body, mind and spirit in order to pull you away from God.
“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and mammon.” Matthew 6:24
Renunciation and Cleansing Prayer for Tattoos and Body Alterations
This prayer is intended to help you break free from any form of demonic interference. Before you begin, read through the entire document carefully. As you pray, feel free to include any areas of your life where you’ve experienced involvement—whether these actions were done to you or by you. Simply skip any sections that do not apply to your situation.
If you are not afraid of demonic forces and truly believe you have the authority, through the name of Jesus, to cast them out, you are encouraged to proceed with this prayer. However, if you do not yet have a strong connection with Jesus or lack confidence in His power to deliver you, the prayer may not be effective.

Heavenly Father,
I come before You with a humble heart, asking for Your protection over me and my family. Please shield us from any interference by spirit beings during this time. Holy Spirit, I invite Your guidance, and ask that You reveal to me any areas in my life where I may be out of alignment with Your will. If there are any fragments, alters, or sub-personalities that may cause disruption, I pray that they be kept away as we work together.
I come before Your throne of grace with boldness, standing on Your Word in 1 John 5:14 that says, “This is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.” Lord, I know that You hear me now.
Father, I acknowledge and confess that getting any markings or alterations on my body was unwise and contrary to Your will. I repent and ask for Your forgiveness. Purify me from all unrighteousness and cleanse me from every spiritual defilement.
I renounce every curse, pact, or agreement made knowingly or unknowingly through these tattoos or body alterations. I break every ungodly soul tie with any tattoo artist or person involved, and I sever every connection with darkness that has been established through these marks.
As I lay my hands upon each alteration, through the power of the blood Jesus Christ, I exorcise every image, ink, symbol, script and body alteration and nullify any claim demons may assert over my body because of these markings.
In the name of Jesus Christ, I break every generational curse, every inherited spiritual bondage, and every mark of the enemy on my mind, body, emotions, or lineage. I declare every door to Satan and his demons closed. I bind every unclean spirit, every demon that attached itself to me through these alterations, and I command them to leave me now and go to the abyss in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. They have no legal rights to me anymore.
Holy Spirit, I invite You to saturate every part of my being with Your cleansing fire. Fill every space the enemy once occupied. Mark me now with Your holy seal and presence. Let Your love, Your power, and Your identity be the only mark upon my life from this day forward.
Father, I declare that my body is Your temple and I consecrate my body to You afresh. Surround me with Your hedge of protection and block every attempt of the enemy to re-establish any claim over me.
Thank You, Lord Jesus, for setting me free today. I give You all the glory, honor, and praise. In Your mighty name I pray, Amen.
Binding and Casting Off Demons Prayer
By the authority granted to me in Jesus Christ, I revoke all access, rights, or claims that any evil spirit has had over my life—whether through lies, deception, trauma, agreements, or any other means. I break every curse, oath, covenant, and legal right the enemy has held against me. I close every door that I or my ancestors have opened to darkness, sealing them with the blood of Jesus.

Any parts of you residing in others or elsewhere, I call back now and command you to unite as one.
Now, I command you to immediately repair any damage you’ve caused to me or those connected to me. Restore all things to their proper order, in the name of Jesus Christ. I command you to pack your belongings, take any equipment, implants, seeds, energetic debris, and fully pull up any roots you have planted. Take it all with you. Gather your entire kingdom, ranks, and all associated members, and unite as one. Now go directly into the abyss or wherever Jesus Christ sends you. Completely release me, in the name of Jesus Christ. You have no legal right to remain. This is a command, and it must be obeyed. Go, now!
If any demons dare to linger or resist, Lord Jesus, I ask that You send Your angels to bind them and torment them by all means necessary until they depart. Escort them to the abyss or wherever they can no longer cause harm to anyone. By faith, I receive freedom from all demonic influences in my life, inherited from both my choices and those of my ancestors.

Earthbound spirits are the souls of individuals who have passed away but have not fully transitioned into the Afterlife. While many hauntings are caused by residual memories imprinted on a location—often seen in repeating patterns such as a figure ascending stairs or lingering in a room—Earthbound spirits are different. These spirits are conscious and can interact with the living. They may be able to change locations or communicate with the living, indicating they are not simply residual impressions but are, in fact, aware and trapped between this world and the next.
The key difference between residual hauntings and Earthbound spirits is that the latter still possess free will. It’s my belief that even after death, individuals retain their ability to make choices, and some may choose to remain Earthbound rather than progress through the natural cycle of the Afterlife. There are countless reasons why someone might stay behind after death. Some of the experiences I’ve had with Earthbound spirits include:
A young girl who fell from a tree while visiting her grandparents and lingered for 80 years, unable to move on because before her death, she was strictly told not to leave the yard.
Jim was terrified of death. At the Hospice house, he constantly rang the bell when left alone. As soon as I helped him recognize that he had passed, the sound of the bell went silent and his ice-cold room returned to normal.
Unfinished business, like a message left unspoken or a mission left incomplete, can also keep people stuck in limbo. In some cases, murder mysteries have been solved or lost items found through their lingering presence.
Fear of Hell, attachment to loved ones, and addictions can all be powerful forces preventing someone from crossing over. Some spirits cling to the living out of worry for their children or loved ones, while others may remain because the living are unwilling to let them go.
Sometimes, people believe they are interacting with a deceased loved one, but it may actually be a demon pretending to be that person, attempting to mislead them.
How to Discern Between an Earthbound Spirit and a Demon
If you believe you’re communicating with an Earthbound spirit, there are a few ways to determine if it’s truly them or if something darker is at play:
Eye contact: Ask the spirit to look you in the eyes for at least 15 seconds. Most demons will struggle to maintain a non-evil gaze for that long.
Questions about faith: If the spirit speaks to you, ask them if Jesus is their Lord and Master. A spirit unwilling to claim this is likely not an Earthbound soul but a demon.
The nature of the message: Earthbound spirits may be loving and comforting, even if they were less than kind while alive. This indicates they have moved on and are visiting, rather than remaining stuck. On the other hand, spirits who seem controlling or overbearing could be struggling to detach from their worldly concerns or it could be a demon in disguise.
Even the most loving Earthbound spirit should be encouraged to move on. Remaining Earthbound limits their spiritual growth and can influence the living in negative ways. It’s easy for a person to develop unhealthy attachments, relying too heavily on a spirit for guidance or comfort. Earthbound spirits have a limited understanding of the spiritual realm, which could lead them to offer misguided advice.
How to Help an Earthbound Spirit Cross Over
In many cases, spirits appear briefly after death, they often remain Earthbound until after their funeral service. Some communicate through vivid dreams or other subtle manifestations. They may come in for short visits during significant events or during emotional moments to express love and support. As long as these visits are not disruptive or demanding, it’s a sign the spirit has already crossed over, and no further action is needed.
However, if you’re dealing with an Earthbound spirit that is causing disruption, the following is a prayer you can use to help them move on. Please note, this is for Earthbound spirits only. If you are experiencing demonic interference, contact me for a SoulCleanse and I can guide you through the process. If you have gone through the SoulCleanse process and still having demonic interference, go to the following page and select the “Generic Renounce and Release Prayer“ and other prayers specific to your experience. theresacrabtree.com/renounce-and-release-prayers/
In addition, visit the following page for help in closing any “open doors” that have allowed demonic attachment. theresacrabtree.com/open-doors/
Generic Prayer for Helping an Earthbound Spirit Cross Over:
Adapt the words to fit your unique experience. If you know the name of the Earthbound, use their name.
“Heavenly Father, Creator of All, I request your help in assisting this lost soul to find their way back to you. Please provide protection so that no other Earthbound spirits, demons, or entities can interfere during this process. I ask that this Earthbound spirit look up and see their loved ones or spiritual guides, and may one of them step forward to extend their hand.
To the Earthbound spirit: Reach out and take hold of their hand. If their touch is warm and their eyes are loving, follow them and be guided to your rightful place in the Afterlife. If the hand feels cold or you sense evil, immediately withdraw and look for another guide.
Heavenly Father, if the first guide is not trustworthy, I ask that they be removed, and that this lost soul be allowed to find a loving and safe guide. Once the spirit has a warm and loving guide, may they go in peace and find their place in the heavenly realms.
Thank you, Father, for this opportunity to assist your lost child. Please clear any remaining energies or attachments that may have been left behind, and sever any unhealthy ties between myself and this spirit. I ask that this portal remain closed, and that no other spirits or entities come to me unless it is your will. Amen.”
Final Thoughts
Once the prayer is said, you may notice that the Earthbound spirit begins to leave. Sometimes, they may need more encouragement or understanding to move on, but they still have the choice to remain.
Helping Earthbound spirits cross over is an important and compassionate act, but it’s essential to approach this task carefully. Always be mindful of your own safety and well-being, and never hesitate to seek help if you feel overwhelmed.
Avoid temptations to summon deceased spirits for advice or any other reason. This may interfere with their Afterlife plans. Worse, the call can easily be answered by a demon.
If you need further help, don’t hesitate to reach out for additional support.

—————————————————————————————————-
Heavenly Father,
I come before You with a humble heart, asking for Your protection over me and my family. Please shield us from any interference by spirit beings during this time. Holy Spirit, I invite Your guidance, and ask that You reveal to me any areas in my life where I may be out of alignment with Your will. If there are any fragments, alters, or sub-personalities that may cause disruption, I pray that they be kept away as we work together.
I renounce and forsake all involvement in Freemasonry or any other lodge, cult or craft by my ancestors and myself. I renounce witchcraft, the principal spirit behind Freemasonry, and I renounce and rebuke Baphomet, the spirit of Antichrist, and the curse of the Luciferian doctrine. I renounce the idolatry, blasphemy, secrecy, and deception of Masonry at every level. I specifically renounce the insecurity, the love of position and power, the love of money, greed, and pride which led me and/or my ancestors into Masonry. I renounce all the fear which held me and/or them in Masonry, especially the fear of death, and the fear of men.
I renounce every position held in the lodge by me and/or any of my ancestors. I renounce all oaths taken, and the curses associated with those oaths, including; the women’s Orders of the Eastern Star, the girls’ order of the Daughters of the Eastern Star, the International Orders of Job’s Daughters, and the International Order of the Rainbow for Girls, the boys’ Order of DeMolay, Knights of Columbus, and every university or college fraternity or sorority with Greek and Masonic connections, and their effects on me and all my family.
I renounce the fear of insanity, anguish, death wishes, suicide, and death in the name of Jesus Christ. I renounce all anger, hatred, murderous thoughts, revenge, retaliation, spiritual apathy, and false religions, and I renounce all unbelief, especially unbelief in the Holy Bible as God’s Word, and all compromise of God’s Word. I renounce all spiritual searching into false religions, and all striving to please God. I rest in the knowledge that I have found my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and that He has embraced me.
I will burn, destroy or deeply bury any object in my possession which connects me with all lodges and occultic organizations, including all regalia, aprons, books of rituals, rings, and other jewelry. I renounce the effects these or other objects of Masonry, such as the compass, the square, the noose, or the blindfold, have had on me or my family. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Holy Spirit, I ask that you show me anything else which I need to do or pray, so that I and my family may be totally free from the consequences of the sins of Masonry.”
(Pause, while listening as the Holy Spirit leads you.)
If you are not in fear of the demons and have the belief that you have the right to cast them out in the name of Jesus, then you are encouraged to continue with this prayer. If you do not have a strong connection with Jesus or believe that he has the ability to cast demons from you, they may not leave. In that case, contact me for support. Check out the videos on my YouTube channel for added information. Better yet, read the Bible and discover the truth for yourself by downloading over 200 Bible scriptures mentioned on the ten video series on demonology on my website: theresacrabtree.com/bible-studies/
BINDING AND CASTING OUT DEMONS PRAYER
By the authority granted to me in Jesus Christ, I revoke all access, rights, or claims that any evil spirit has had over my life—whether through lies, deception, trauma, agreements, or any other means. I break every curse, oath, covenant, and legal right the enemy has held against me. I close every door that I or my ancestors have opened to darkness, sealing them with the blood of Jesus. I now declare that Satan and his demons no longer have any legal right to mislead, manipulate, or control me.
In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, I call attention to every demon attached to me—whether coming, going, circulating freely, or in any way connected to my life. You are now under the authority of the risen Lord Jesus Christ. I bind you and command that you will not harm me or anyone connected to me. You will not hide, leave, seek help from others, or move on to someone else. You will not split, divide, multiply, fragment, clone, or delegate your duties to any other demon. Any parts of you residing in others or elsewhere, I call back now and command you to unite as one.
Now, I command you to immediately repair any damage you’ve caused to me or those connected to me. Restore all things to their proper order, in the name of Jesus Christ. I command you to pack your belongings, take any equipment, implants, seeds, energetic debris, and fully pull up any roots you have planted. Take it all with you. Gather your entire kingdom, ranks, and all associated members, and unite as one. Now go directly into the abyss or wherever Jesus Christ sends you. Completely release me, in the name of Jesus Christ. You have no legal right to remain. This is a command, and it must be obeyed. Go, now!
If any demons dare to linger or resist, Lord Jesus, I ask that You send Your angels to bind them and torment them by all means necessary until they depart. Escort them to the abyss or wherever they can no longer cause harm to anyone. By faith, I receive freedom from all demonic influences in my life, inherited from both my choices and those of my ancestors.
Holy Spirit, I invite You to fill every part of me. Grant me discernment to recognize Your will clearly, and help me reject the deception of all forces that rebel against You.
Thank You, Father, Lord Jesus, and Holy Spirit, for setting me free. Amen.
Additional Instructions:
If you feel tension or discomfort in specific parts of your body during this prayer, it may indicate that demons are holding on. Repeat the command for them to leave several times until your body feels more relaxed. If they try to control your body or cause mental confusion, say, “I bind all demonic powers in, on, or around me, and I command you to be silent and still, in the name of Jesus Christ.” This usually calms the disturbance.
The goal is to bind them temporarily, giving you space to complete the process. Pray for help from the Creator and Jesus to overcome their resistance and to strengthen your courage and faith.
Not a believer in Jesus?
I personally believe that every person has the authority to cast out demons from their body and soul, much like one would command an intruder to leave their home. However, stronger demons may hide or resist, making it hard to release them alone. Without the authority of Jesus Christ—who holds the keys to the demonic realm—they are unlikely to be sent into the abyss. But if you are willing to command the demons to go to the feet of Jesus and trust that He will direct them where He chooses, your chances of releasing them improve. Once they leave, they can only return if there are still open doors that grant them access. The SoulCleanse process helps identify and close those doors, but you must also do your “inner work” by addressing fears, beliefs, and behaviors that leave you vulnerable to demonic influence.
What Can I Expect from Doing This Exercise?
Everyone’s experience is unique, so what you encounter may vary. If there are demonic influences involved, you might feel their presence through anxiety, often manifesting as a sudden headache, a queasy stomach, muscle tension, or other bodily sensations. They may try to delay the process by creating distractions or making you feel drowsy when you attempt the exercise. In some cases, they might use fear tactics, such as inducing nightmares or causing minor pain like pinches or pokes. You may also experience intrusive thoughts such as, “This isn’t real,” “This isn’t safe,” or threats like, “You’re too weak to fight me; you’ll regret this. We’ll hurt your family.” These are lies, and it’s important to reject them.
When demons are released, it’s usually subtle, often occurring through the breath—like deep sighs, coughing, burping, or yawning. Some people feel the demons leave from different parts of their bodies, while others might experience vomiting or expelling a bile-like substance. It’s a good idea to have a plastic bucket and tissues nearby, just in case.
Whether you’re dealing with demons or not, you may experience various changes in the days following the exercise. If demons have been affecting your body, you may feel physical healing taking place. Some people feel more energized, while others may need more rest as their energies realign. Emotional shifts are common as well, and many people report feeling a greater sense of inner peace and clarity.
Remember, this prayer targets demons that entered through one specific door. You might still have others that entered through different doorways. Just like with this prayer, be ready to stop and repent for any wrongdoing on your part. Then, using the prayer as a template, renounce the fear, belief, experience, or activity that allowed those influences to take hold, and repeat the casting-off process.
If you’re already dealing with demons that manifest violently, it’s advisable to have someone with you during this exercise. Fasting and prayer beforehand can help make the process smoother. The most stubborn demons are often the last to leave. If they resist departure, you may need additional support from an experienced deliverance minister to help them go.
If you have Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), paranoia, or schizophrenia, it’s important to have someone with you when doing this exercise. This is because your true self may be so intertwined with the demonic influences that an “identity crisis” or “inner conflict” could arise. The positive side, however, is that this could be an opportunity for you to rediscover and re-create your true self.
Final Note: Sometimes what seems like demonic interference is actually a result of unprocessed trauma, learned behaviors, fear, or other factors. Therefore, doing “inner work” to release these blocks and close any open doors is key to preventing vulnerability to such influences. At the bottom of my website, you will find many resources to help you to get free and stay free.

PRAYER OF RELEASE for FREEMASONS AND THEIR DESCENDANTS
by Dr. Selwyn Stevens
If you were once a member of a Masonic organisation or are a descendant of someone who was, we recommend that you pray through this prayer from your heart. Please don’t be like the Masons who are given their obligations and oaths one line at a time and without prior knowledge of the requirements. Please read it through first so you know what is involved.
It is best to pray this aloud with a Christian witness present. We suggest a brief pause following each paragraph to allow the Holy Spirit to show any related issues which may require attention.
A significant number of people also reported having experienced physical and spiritual healings as diverse as long-term headaches and epilepsy as the result of praying through this prayer. Christian counsellors and pastors in many countries have been using this prayer in counselling situations and seminars for several years, with real and significant results.
Some language could be described as ‘quaint Old English’ and are the real terms used in the Masonic ritual. The legal renunciation opens the way for spiritual, emotional and physical healing to take place.
There are differences between British Commonwealth Masonry, American and Prince Hall Masonry in the higher degrees. Degrees unique to Americans are marked with this sign “*” at the commencement of each paragraph. Those of British Commonwealth decent shouldn’t need to pray through those paragraphs.
The Prayer of Release
“Father God, creator of heaven and earth, I come to you in the name of Jesus Christ your Son. I come as a sinner seeking forgiveness and cleansing from all sins committed against you, and others made in your image. I honour my earthly father and mother and all of my ancestors of flesh and blood, and of the spirit by adoption and godparents, but I utterly turn away from and renounce all their sins. I forgive all my ancestors for the effects of their sins on me and my children. I confess and renounce all of my own sins, known and unknown. I renounce and rebuke Satan and every spiritual power of his affecting me and my family, in the name of Jesus Christ.
True Holy Creator God, in the name of the True Lord Jesus Christ, in accordance with Jude 8:10; Psalm 82:1 and 2 Chronicles 18, I request you to move aside all Celestial Beings, including Principalities, Powers and Rulers, and to forbid them to harass, intimidate or retaliate against me and all participants in this ministry today.
I also ask that you prevent and forbid these beings, of whatever rank, from sending any level of spiritual evil as retaliation against any of those here, or our families, our ministries, or possessions.
I renounce and annul every covenant made with Death by my ancestors or myself, including every agreement made with Sheol, and I renounce the refuge of lies and falsehoods which have been hidden behind.
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I renounce and forsake all involvement in Freemasonry or any other lodge, craft or occultism by my ancestors and myself. I also renounce and break the code of silence enforced by Freemasonry and the Occult on my family and myself. I renounce and repent of all pride and arrogance which opened the door for the slavery and bondage of Freemasonry to afflict my family and me. I now shut every door of witchcraft and deception operating in my life and seal it closed with the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. I renounce every covenant, every blood covenant and every alliance with Freemasonry or the spiritual powers behind it made by my family or me.
In the name of Jesus Christ, I rebuke, renounce and bind Witchcraft, the principal spirit behind Freemasonry, and I renounce and rebuke Baphomet, the Spirit of Antichrist and the spirits of Death, and Deception.
I renounce and rebuke the Spirit of Fides, the Roman goddess of Fidelity that seeks to hold all Masonic and occultic participants and their descendants in bondage, and I ask the One True Holy Creator God to give me the gift of Faith to believe in the True Lord Jesus Christ as described in the Word of God.
I also renounce and rebuke the Spirit of Prostitution which the Word of God says has led members of Masonic and other Occultic organisations astray, and caused them to become unfaithful to the One True and Holy God. I now choose to return and become faithful to the God of the Bible, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Father of Jesus Christ, who I now declare is my Lord and Saviour.
I renounce the insecurity, the love of position and power, the love of money, avarice or greed, and the pride which would have led my ancestors into Masonry. I renounce all the fears which held them in Masonry, especially the fears of death, fears of men, and fears of trusting, in the name of Jesus Christ.
I renounce every position held in the lodge by any of my ancestors or myself, including “Master,” “Worshipful Master,” or any other occultic title. I renounce the calling of any man “Master,” for Jesus Christ is my only master and Lord, and He forbids anyone else having that title. I renounce the entrapping of others into Masonry, and observing the helplessness of others during the rituals.
I renounce the effects of Masonry passed on to me through any female ancestor who felt distrusted and rejected by her husband as he entered and attended any lodge and refused to tell her of his secret activities. I also renounce all obligations, oaths and curses enacted by every female member of my family through any direct membership of all Women’s Orders of Freemasonry, the Order of the Eastern Star, or any other Masonic or occultic organisation.
All participants should now be invited to sincerely carry out in faith the following actions:
Symbolically remove the blindfold (hoodwink) and give it to the Lord for disposal; in the same way, symbolically remove the veil of mourning, to make way to receive the Joy of the Lord:
Symbolically cut and remove the noose from around the neck, gather it up with the cable-tow running down the body and give it all to the Lord for His disposal; Renounce the false Freemasonry marriage covenant, removing from the 4th finger of the right hand the ring of this false marriage covenant, giving it to the Lord to dispose of it;
Symbolically remove the chains and bondages of Freemasonry from your body;
Symbolically remove all Freemasonry regalia, including collars, gauntlets and armour, especially the Apron with its snake clasp, to make way for the Belt of Truth; Remove the slipshod slippers, to make way for the shoes of the Gospel of Peace; Symbolically remove the ball and chain from the ankles.
Invite participants to repent of and seek forgiveness for having walked on all unholy ground, including Freemasonry lodges and temples, including any Mormon or any other occultic/Masonic organisations.
Proclaim that Satan and his demons no longer have any legal rights to mislead and manipulate the person seeking help.

I renounce all of the obligations of every Masonic degree, and all penalties invoked.
I renounce and utterly forsake The Great Architect Of The Universe, who is revealed in this degree as Lucifer, and his false claim to be the universal fatherhood of God. I reject the Masonic view of deity because it does not square with the revelation of the One True and Holy Creator God of the Bible.
I renounce the cable-tow around the neck. I renounce the death wish that the wine drunk from a human skull should turn to poison and the skeleton whose cold arms are invited if the oath of this degree is violated.

In the name of God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I renounce and break the curses and iniquities involved in the idolatry, blasphemy, secrecy and deception of Freemasonry at every level, and I appropriate the Blood of Jesus Christ to cleanse all the consequences of these from my life. I now revoke all previous consent given by any of my ancestors or myself to be deceived.

I also renounce the usurping of the marriage covenant by the removal of the wedding ring. I renounce the secret word, BOAZ, and it’s Masonic meaning. I renounce the serpent clasp on the apron, and the spirit of Python which it brought to squeeze the spiritual life out of me.
I renounce the ancient pagan teaching from Babylon and Egypt and the symbolism of the First Tracing Board. I renounce the mixing and mingling of truth and error, the mythology, fabrications and lies taught as truth, and the dishonesty by leaders as to the true understanding of the ritual, and the blasphemy of this degree of Freemasonry.
I renounce the breaking of five of God’s Ten Commandments during participation in the rituals of the Blue Lodge degrees. I renounce the presentation to every compass direction, for all the Earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it. I renounce the cable-tow noose around the neck, the fear of choking and also every spirit causing asthma, hay fever, emphysema or any other breathing difficulty.
I renounce the ritual dagger, or the compass point, sword or spear held against the breast, the fear of death by stabbing pain, and the fear of heart attack from this degree, and the absolute secrecy demanded under a witchcraft oath and sealed by kissing the Volume of the Sacred Law.
I also renounce kneeling to the false deity known as the Great Architect of the Universe, and humbly ask the One True God to forgive me for this idolatry, in the name of Jesus Christ.
I renounce the pride of proven character and good standing required prior to joining Freemasonry, and the resulting self-righteousness of being good enough to stand before God without the need of a saviour. I now pray for healing of… (throat, vocal cords, nasal passages, sinus, bronchial tubes etc.) for healing of the speech area, and the release of the Word of God to me and through me and my family.

I renounce the falling into the coffin or stretcher involved in the ritual of murder.
In the name of Jesus Christ I renounce Hiram Abiff, the false saviour of Freemasons revealed in this degree. I renounce the false resurrection of this degree, because only Jesus Christ is the Resurrection and the Life!
I renounce the pagan ritual of the “Point within a Circle” with all its bondages and phallus worship. I renounce the symbol “G” and its veiled pagan symbolism and bondages. I renounce the occultic mysticism of the black and white mosaic chequered floor with the tessellated boarder and five-pointed blazing star.
I renounce the All-Seeing Third Eye of Freemasonry or Horus in the forehead and its pagan and occult symbolism. I rebuke and reject every spirit of divination which allowed this occult ability to operate. Action: Put your hand over your forehead.) I now close that Third eye and all occult ability to see into the spiritual realm, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and put my trust in the Holy Spirit sent by Jesus Christ for all I need to know on spiritual matters.
I renounce all false communions taken, all mockery of the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary, all unbelief, confusion and depression. I renounce and forsake the lie of Freemasonry that man is not sinful, but merely imperfect, and so can redeem himself through good works. I rejoice that the Bible states that I cannot do a single thing to earn my salvation, but that I can only be saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and what He accomplished on the Cross of Calvary.
I renounce all fear of insanity, anguish, death wishes, suicide and death in the name of Jesus Christ. Death was conquered by Jesus Christ, and He alone holds the keys of death and hell, and I rejoice that He holds my life in His hands now. He came to give me life abundantly and eternally, and I believe His promises.
I renounce all anger, hatred, murderous thoughts, revenge, retaliation, spiritual apathy, false religion, all unbelief, especially unbelief in the Holy Bible as God’s Word, and all compromise of God’s Word. I renounce all spiritual searching into false religions, and all striving to please God. I rest in the knowledge that I have found my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and that He has found me.

Lord Jesus, because you want me to be totally free from all occult bondages, I will burn all objects in my possession which connect me with all lodges and occultic organisations, including Masonry, Witchcraft, the Occult and Mormonism, and all regalia, aprons, books of rituals, rings and other jewelery. I renounce the effects these or other objects of Masonry, including the compass and the square, have had on me or my family, in the name of Jesus Christ.
In the name and authority of Jesus Christ, I break every curse of Freemasonry in my life, including the curses of barrenness, sickness, mind-blinding and poverty, and I rebuke every evil spirit which empowered these curses.
I also renounce, cut off and dissolve in the blood of Jesus Christ every ungodly soul-tie I or my ancestors have created with other lodge members or participants in occultic groups and actions, and I ask you to send out ministering angels to gather together all portions of my fragmented soul, to free them from all bondages and to wash them clean in the Blood of Jesus Christ, and then to restore them to wholeness to their rightful place within me. I also ask that You remove from me any parts of any other person’s soul which has been deposited within my humanity. Thank you Lord for restoring my soul and sanctifying my spirit.
I renounce and rebuke every evil spirit associated with Freemasonry, Witchcraft , the Occult and all other sins and iniquities. Lord Jesus, I ask you to now set me free from all spiritual and other bondages, in accordance with the many promises of the Bible.
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I now take the delegated authority given to me and bind every spirit of sickness, infirmity, curse, affliction, addiction, disease or allergy associated with these sins I have confessed and renounced, including every spirit empowering all iniquities inherited from my family. I exercise the delegated authority from the Risen Lord Jesus Christ over all lower levels of evil spirits and demons which have been assigned to me, and I command that all such demonic beings are to be bound up into one, to be separated from every part of my humanity, whether perceived to be in the body or trapped in the dimensions, and they are not permitted to transfer power to any other spirits or to call for reinforcements.
I command, in the name of Jesus Christ, for every evil spirit to leave me now, touching or harming no one, and go to the dry place appointed for you by the Lord Jesus Christ, never to return to me or my family, and I command that you now take all your memories, roots, scars, works, nests and habits with you. I surrender to God’s Holy Spirit and to no other spirit all the places in my life where these sins and iniquities have been.
Conclusion
Holy Spirit, I ask that you show me anything else which I need to do or to pray so that I and my family may be totally free from the consequences of the sins of Masonry, Witchcraft, Mormonism and all related Paganism and Occultism.
(Pause, while listening to God, and pray as the Holy Spirit leads you.)
Now, dear Father God, I ask humbly for the blood of Jesus Christ, your Son and my Saviour, to cleanse me from all these sins I have confessed and renounced, to cleanse my spirit, my soul, my mind, my emotions and every part of my body which has been affected by these sins, in the name of Jesus Christ.
I also command every cell in my body to come into divine order now, and to be healed and made whole as they were designed to by my loving Creator, including restoring all chemical imbalances and neurological functions, controlling all cancerous cells, reversing all degenerative diseases, and I sever the DNA and RNA of any mental or physical diseases or afflictions that came down through my family blood lines. I also ask to receive the perfect love of God which casts out all fear, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
I ask you, Lord, to fill me with your Holy Spirit now according to the promises in your Word. I take to myself the whole armour of God in accordance with Ephesians chapter six, and rejoice in its protection as Jesus surrounds me and fills me with His Holy Spirit.
I enthrone you, Lord Jesus, in my heart, for you are my Lord and my Saviour, the source of eternal life. Thank you, Father God, for your mercy, your forgiveness and your love, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.”

Read the following two prayers first, so you know what is involved.
Jehovah’s Witnesses Renounce and Release Prayer
This prayer is intended to help you break free from any form of demonic interference. Before you begin, read through the entire document carefully. As you pray, feel free to include any areas of your life where you’ve experienced involvement—whether these actions were done to you or by you. Simply skip any sections that do not apply to your situation.
If you are not afraid of demonic forces and truly believe you have the authority, through the name of Jesus, to cast them out, you are encouraged to proceed with this prayer. However, if you do not yet have a strong connection with Jesus or lack confidence in His power to deliver you, the prayer may not be effective. In that case, consider reaching out to me for support, or explore additional teachings and resources available on my YouTube channel. You can also strengthen your understanding by reading the Bible yourself and downloading the over 200 scriptures referenced in my ten-part video series on demonology at theresacrabtree.com/bible-studies/
When you are ready to begin, speak the prayer aloud with faith and conviction. Remember, this document is simply a template—there is no “right” or “wrong” way to pray. Use your own words from the heart as you invite God’s power and protection into your life.
—————————————————————————————————-
Heavenly Father,
I come before You with a humble heart, asking for Your protection over me and my family. Please shield us from any interference by spirit beings during this time. Holy Spirit, I invite Your guidance, and ask that You reveal to me any areas in my life where I may be out of alignment with Your will. If there are any fragments, alters, or sub-personalities that may cause disruption, I pray that they be kept away as we work together.
I renounce all association with the Jehovah’s Witness organization. I renounce, forsake, and break every covenant I have ever made with the Watchtower Society of Jehovah’s Witnesses. I renounce and forsake the false headship and authority of the President and the Governing Body of the Watchtower Society, and their idolatrous usurping of their organization in the place of the Lord Jesus Christ. I renounce and forsake the heretical writings of Charles Taze Russell, and all other writings published by the Watchtower Society. Lord Jesus, help me to honor you by removing all these books and publications from my home and life. I cut off every bondage I have been under because of those writings.
In the name of Jesus Christ, I renounce and cut off from my life the ungodly Covenants of Baptism and Membership of the Jehovah’s Witnesses. I reject every false doctrine, every unbiblical teaching, every manipulation, and spiritual deception I have accepted through them. I sever all soul ties, spiritual ties, and influences connected to this group. I declare that I no longer belong to them—I belong to Jesus Christ alone. Jesus, I ask for continued protection against any human member or associated demons who are harassing me because of my rejection of the Jehovah’s Witness. Holy Spirit, I ask that you show me anything else which I need to do so that I and my family may be totally free from the consequences of the sins of the Watchtower Society of the Jehovah’s Witnesses.
(Pause, while listening as the Holy Spirit leads you.)
Lord Jesus, I now confess that my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, redeemed, cleansed and sanctified by the blood of Jesus Christ. I ask you, Lord Jesus, to fill me now with your Holy Spirit, so that He will give me insight and understanding when I read and study your Word. I enthrone you, Lord Jesus in my heart, for you are my Lord and Savior, the source of eternal life.”
If you are not in fear of the demons and have the belief that you have the right to cast them out in the name of Jesus, then you are encouraged to continue with this prayer. If you do not have a strong connection with Jesus or believe that he has the ability to cast demons from you, they may not leave. In that case, contact me for support. Check out the videos on my YouTube channel for added information. Better yet, read the Bible and discover the truth for yourself by downloading over 200 Bible scriptures mentioned on the ten video series on demonology on my website: theresacrabtree.com/bible-studies/
BINDING AND CASTING OFF DEMONS PRAYER
By the authority granted to me in Jesus Christ, I revoke all access, rights, or claims that any evil spirit has had over my life—whether through lies, deception, trauma, agreements, or any other means. I break every curse, oath, covenant, and legal right the enemy has held against me. I close every door that I or my ancestors have opened to darkness, sealing them with the blood of Jesus. I now declare that Satan and his demons no longer have any legal right to mislead, manipulate, or control me.
In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, I call attention to every demon attached to me—whether coming, going, circulating freely, or in any way connected to my life. You are now under the authority of the risen Lord Jesus Christ. I bind you and command that you will not harm me or anyone connected to me. You will not hide, leave, seek help from others, or move on to someone else. You will not split, divide, multiply, fragment, clone, or delegate your duties to any other demon. Any parts of you residing in others or elsewhere, I call back now and command you to unite as one.
Now, I command you to immediately repair any damage you’ve caused to me or those connected to me. Restore all things to their proper order, in the name of Jesus Christ. I command you to pack your belongings, take any equipment, implants, seeds, energetic debris, and fully pull up any roots you have planted. Take it all with you. Gather your entire kingdom, ranks, and all associated members, and unite as one. Now go directly into the abyss or wherever Jesus Christ sends you. Completely release me, in the name of Jesus Christ. You have no legal right to remain. This is a command, and it must be obeyed. Go, now!
If any demons dare to linger or resist, Lord Jesus, I ask that You send Your angels to bind them and torment them by all means necessary until they depart. Escort them to the abyss or wherever they can no longer cause harm to anyone. By faith, I receive freedom from all demonic influences in my life, inherited from both my choices and those of my ancestors.
Holy Spirit, I invite You to fill every part of me. Grant me discernment to recognize Your will clearly, and help me reject the deception of all forces that rebel against You.
Thank You, Father, Lord Jesus, and Holy Spirit, for setting me free. Amen.
Additional Instructions:
If you feel tension or discomfort in specific parts of your body during this prayer, it may indicate that demons are holding on. Repeat the command for them to leave several times until your body feels more relaxed. If they try to control your body or cause mental confusion, say, “I bind all demonic powers in, on, or around me, and I command you to be silent and still, in the name of Jesus Christ.” This usually calms the disturbance.
The goal is to bind them temporarily, giving you space to complete the process. Pray for help from the Creator and Jesus to overcome their resistance and to strengthen your courage and faith.
Not a believer in Jesus?
I personally believe that every person has the authority to cast out demons from their body and soul, much like one would command an intruder to leave their home. However, stronger demons may hide or resist, making it hard to release them alone. Without the authority of Jesus Christ—who holds the keys to the demonic realm—they are unlikely to be sent into the abyss. But if you are willing to command the demons to go to the feet of Jesus and trust that He will direct them where He chooses, your chances of releasing them improve. Once they leave, they can only return if there are still open doors that grant them access. The SoulCleanse process helps identify and close those doors, but you must also do your “inner work” by addressing fears, beliefs, and behaviors that leave you vulnerable to demonic influence.
What Can I Expect from Doing This Exercise?
Everyone’s experience is unique, so what you encounter may vary. If there are demonic influences involved, you might feel their presence through anxiety, often manifesting as a sudden headache, a queasy stomach, muscle tension, or other bodily sensations. They may try to delay the process by creating distractions or making you feel drowsy when you attempt the exercise. In some cases, they might use fear tactics, such as inducing nightmares or causing minor pain like pinches or pokes. You may also experience intrusive thoughts such as, “This isn’t real,” “This isn’t safe,” or threats like, “You’re too weak to fight me; you’ll regret this. We’ll hurt your family.” These are lies, and it’s important to reject them.
When demons are released, it’s usually subtle, often occurring through the breath—like deep sighs, coughing, burping, or yawning. Some people feel the demons leave from different parts of their bodies, while others might experience vomiting or expelling a bile-like substance. It’s a good idea to have a plastic bucket and tissues nearby, just in case.
Whether you’re dealing with demons or not, you may experience various changes in the days following the exercise. If demons have been affecting your body, you may feel physical healing taking place. Some people feel more energized, while others may need more rest as their energies realign. Emotional shifts are common as well, and many people report feeling a greater sense of inner peace and clarity.
Remember, this prayer targets demons that entered through one specific door. You might still have others that entered through different doorways. Just like with this prayer, be ready to stop and repent for any wrongdoing on your part. Then, using the prayer as a template, renounce the fear, belief, experience, or activity that allowed those influences to take hold, and repeat the casting-off process.
If you’re already dealing with demons that manifest violently, it’s advisable to have someone with you during this exercise. Fasting and prayer beforehand can help make the process smoother. The most stubborn demons are often the last to leave. If they resist departure, you may need additional support from an experienced deliverance minister to help them go.
If you have Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), paranoia, or schizophrenia, it’s important to have someone with you when doing this exercise. This is because your true self may be so intertwined with the demonic influences that an “identity crisis” or “inner conflict” could arise. The positive side, however, is that this could be an opportunity for you to rediscover and re-create your true self.
Final Note: Sometimes what seems like demonic interference is actually a result of unprocessed trauma, learned behaviors, fear, or other factors. Therefore, doing “inner work” to release these blocks and close any open doors is key to preventing vulnerability to such influences. At the bottom of my website, you will find many resources to help you to get free and stay free.

Paramahansa Yogananda – Renunciation Prayer
and Release from the Guru Lineage
This prayer is intended to help you break free from any form of demonic interference. Before you begin, read through the entire document carefully. As you pray, feel free to include any areas of your life where you’ve experienced involvement—whether these actions were done to you or by you. Simply skip any sections that do not apply to your situation.

If you signed any contracts with groups associated with Yogananda, it would be wise to tear it up or burn it. You can do it at a different time or while doing this renunciation prayer. Also, it would be good to get rid of any symbols, statues, books, artwork, jewelry or anything associated with Yogananda and the gurus in his lineage.
When you are ready to begin, speak the prayer aloud with faith and conviction. Remember, this document is simply a template—there is no “right” or “wrong” way to pray. Use your own words from the heart as you invite God’s power and protection into your life.

Heavenly Father,
I come before You with a humble heart, asking for Your protection over me and my family. Please shield us from any interference by spirit beings during this time. Holy Spirit, I invite Your guidance, and ask that You reveal to me any areas in my life where I may be out of alignment with Your will. If there are any fragments, alters, or sub-personalities that may cause disruption, I pray that they be kept away as we work together.
I am grateful for your forgiveness, grace and mercy on me regarding the unholy vow that I made, taking Paramahansa Yoganada and his lineage of gurus as my gurus. If the Jesus that they profess is a false representative of your Son, I include that Jesus in this renunciation.
I renounce, forsake, and break every covenant I have ever made with Paramahansa Yogananda, Babaji-Krishna, Lahiri Mahasaya and Swami Sri Yukteswar. I cut off all soul ties, energies and allegiance to each of them and any others connected to them who have connected to me.
I also renounce, forsake, break every covenant and all soul ties that I have ever made with the Self-Realization Fellowship, including the initiation into Kriya Yoga, the guru-discipleship with Yogananda, the YSS lessons and all of the teachings that were written by Yogananda and those in alliance with him.
I renounce and cut any and all soul fragments that may have been attached to me through any of these people, dead or alive. This also includes any demons associated with any of these people, this organization, its practices and teachings. I recall any of my own soul fragments that may have lodged with any of these people, demons or organization. I given no permission for any of them to watch over me or contact me in any way, whether or not they are in human form.
I disown all of them as my spiritual family, counselors, gurus and any other capacities.
I cut off every bondage I have been under because of their writings, in the name of Jesus Christ.
I now confess that my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, redeemed, cleansed and sanctified by the blood of Jesus Christ. I ask you, Lord Jesus, to fill me now with your Holy Spirit, so that He will give me insight and understanding when I read and study your Word. Please Holy Spirit, help me to uncover all of their false teachings that I have taken on as truth so that I do not propagate false information to others.
I enthrone you, Lord Jesus in my heart, for you are my Lord and Savior, the source of eternal life. Thank you, Father God, for your mercy, your forgiveness and your love, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.”
If you are not in fear of the demons and have the belief that you have the right to cast them out in the name of Jesus, then you are encouraged to continue with this prayer. If you do not have a strong connection with Jesus or believe that he has the ability to cast demons from you, they may not leave. In that case, contact me for support.

BINDING AND CASTING OFF DEMONS PRAYER
By the authority granted to me in Jesus Christ, I revoke all access, rights, or claims that any evil spirit has had over my life—whether through lies, deception, trauma, agreements, or any other means. I break every curse, oath, covenant, and legal right the enemy has held against me. I close every door that I or my ancestors have opened to darkness, sealing them with the blood of Jesus. I now declare that Satan and his demons no longer have any legal right to mislead, manipulate, or control me.
In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, I call attention to every demon attached to me—whether coming, going, circulating freely, or in any way connected to my life. You are now under the authority of the risen Lord Jesus Christ. I bind you and command that you will not harm me or anyone connected to me. You will not hide, leave, seek help from others, or move on to someone else. You will not split, divide, multiply, fragment, clone, or delegate your duties to any other demon. Any parts of you residing in others or elsewhere, I call back now and command you to unite as one.
Now, I command you to immediately repair any damage you’ve caused to me or those connected to me. Restore all things to their proper order, in the name of Jesus Christ. I command you to pack your belongings, take any equipment, implants, seeds, energetic debris, and fully pull up any roots you have planted. Take it all with you. Gather your entire kingdom, ranks, and all associated members, and unite as one. Now go directly into the abyss or wherever Jesus Christ sends you. Completely release me, in the name of Jesus Christ. You have no legal right to remain. This is a command, and it must be obeyed. Go, now!
If any demons dare to linger or resist, Lord Jesus, I ask that You send Your angels to bind them and torment them by all means necessary until they depart. Escort them to the abyss or wherever they can no longer cause harm to anyone. By faith, I receive freedom from all demonic influences in my life, inherited from both my choices and those of my ancestors.
Holy Spirit, I invite You to fill every part of me. Grant me discernment to recognize Your will clearly, and help me reject the deception of all forces that rebel against You.
Thank You, Father, Lord Jesus, and Holy Spirit, for setting me free. Amen.
Additional Instructions:
If you feel tension or discomfort in specific parts of your body during this prayer, it may indicate that demons are holding on. Repeat the command for them to leave several times until your body feels more relaxed. If they try to control your body or cause mental confusion, say, “I bind all demonic powers in, on, or around me, and I command you to be silent and still, in the name of Jesus Christ.” This usually calms the disturbance.
The goal is to bind them temporarily, giving you space to complete the process. Pray for help from the Creator and Jesus to overcome their resistance and to strengthen your courage and faith.
Not a believer in Jesus?
I personally believe that every person has the authority to cast out demons from their body and soul, much like one would command an intruder to leave their home. However, stronger demons may hide or resist, making it hard to release them alone. Without the authority of Jesus Christ—who holds the keys to the demonic realm—they are unlikely to be sent into the abyss. But if you are willing to command the demons to go to the feet of Jesus and trust that He will direct them where He chooses, your chances of releasing them improve. Once they leave, they can only return if there are still open doors that grant them access. The SoulCleanse process helps identify and close those doors, but you must also do your “inner work” by addressing fears, beliefs, and behaviors that leave you vulnerable to demonic influence.
What Can I Expect from Doing This Exercise?
Everyone’s experience is unique, so what you encounter may vary. If there are demonic influences involved, you might feel their presence through anxiety, often manifesting as a sudden headache, a queasy stomach, muscle tension, or other bodily sensations. They may try to delay the process by creating distractions or making you feel drowsy when you attempt the exercise. In some cases, they might use fear tactics, such as inducing nightmares or causing minor pain like pinches or pokes. You may also experience intrusive thoughts such as, “This isn’t real,” “This isn’t safe,” or threats like, “You’re too weak to fight me; you’ll regret this. We’ll hurt your family.” These are lies, and it’s important to reject them.
When demons are released, it’s usually subtle, often occurring through the breath—like deep sighs, coughing, burping, or yawning. Some people feel the demons leave from different parts of their bodies, while others might experience vomiting or expelling a bile-like substance. It’s a good idea to have a plastic bucket and tissues nearby, just in case.
Whether you’re dealing with demons or not, you may experience various changes in the days following the exercise. If demons have been affecting your body, you may feel physical healing taking place. Some people feel more energized, while others may need more rest as their energies realign. Emotional shifts are common as well, and many people report feeling a greater sense of inner peace and clarity.
Remember, this prayer targets demons that entered through one specific door. You might still have others that entered through different doorways. Just like with this prayer, be ready to stop and repent for any wrongdoing on your part. Then, using the prayer as a template, renounce the fear, belief, experience, or activity that allowed those influences to take hold, and repeat the casting-off process.
If you’re already dealing with demons that manifest violently, it’s advisable to have someone with you during this exercise. Fasting and prayer beforehand can help make the process smoother. The most stubborn demons are often the last to leave. If they resist departure, you may need additional support from an experienced deliverance minister to help them go.
If you have Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), paranoia, or schizophrenia, it’s important to have someone with you when doing this exercise. This is because your true self may be so intertwined with the demonic influences that an “identity crisis” or “inner conflict” could arise. The positive side, however, is that this could be an opportunity for you to rediscover and re-create your true self.
Final Note: Sometimes what seems like demonic interference is actually a result of unprocessed trauma, learned behaviors, fear, or other factors. Therefore, doing “inner work” to release these blocks and close any open doors is key to preventing vulnerability to such influences.
