Dark Intercessors: Witchcraft Prayers that Jezebel Uses to Steal, Kill & Destroy

Dark intercessors, or false intercessors, carry certain qualities, whether we discern them or not.

Let’s look at the deep and lengthy definition of false in Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary to get some clues as to the qualities of dark intercessors. False means “not genuine, intentionally untrue, adjusted or made so as to deceive, intended or tending to mislead, not true, not faithful or loyal, lacking naturalness or sincerity, inaccurate in pitch, threateningly sudden or deceptive, treacherous.”

This is dangerous for the church and dangerous to the intercessor. In Isaiah 29:15-16 (NLT), the Lord says:

What sorrow awaits those who try to hide their plans from the Lord, who do their evil deeds in the dark! “The Lord can’t see us,” they say. “He doesn’t know what’s going on!” How foolish can you be? He is the Potter, and he is certainly greater than you, the clay! Should the created thing say of the one who made it, “He didn’t make me”? Does a jar ever say, “The potter who made me is stupid”?

Some dark intercessors know exactly what they are doing. They purposely stand in the way of God’s will. They don’t genuinely care about the cause. Their motive is dark. They set out to deceive.

Speaking of the end times that we’re in right now, Paul wrote, “But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived’” (2 Tim. 3:13 NKJV). They are treacherous, which means likely to betray your trust. Their intercession is marked by hidden dangers, hazards, and perils. But make no mistake, they shall be ashamed who deal treacherously without a cause (Ps. 25:3). That’s why we need to pray for their deliverance.

Seeing the Darkness in Us

It’s hard to see in the dark, and it’s hard to see darkness in us. Have you ever been in a hotel room only to wake up in the middle of the night and bump into a wall trying to find the bathroom? Dark is dark and, again, it’s not just hard to see in the dark. It’s hard to see the dark in us. We need to be careful not to try to remove the speck that is in our brother’s eye when we have a beam poking out of our own eye (see Matt. 7:3). Jesus offered these wise words:

Your eye is like a lamp that provides light for your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is filled with light. But when it is unhealthy, your body is filled with darkness. Make sure that the light you think you have is not actually darkness. If you are filled with light, with no dark corners, then your whole life will be radiant, as though a floodlight were filling you with light (Luke 11:34-36 NLT).

Darkness is deceptive. If we could see it, we would cry out for deliverance. So what do we do? We need to examine ourselves and test ourselves (see 2 Cor. 13:5). Paul was pulling wisdom from Lamentations 3:40 (NKJV) in his words to the church at Corinth that still speak to us today: “Let us search out and examine our ways, and turn back to the Lord.”

Apart from Christ we can do nothing (see John 15:5). We can’t even examine ourselves without first inviting His light in to probe our souls. The nature of deception is that we don’t know what we don’t know, and we can’t see what we can’t see. David put it this way: “Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults” (Ps. 19:12 NKJV). That’s why he cried out, “Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my anxieties; and see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting” (Ps. 139:23-24 NKJV).

We can’t repent for and renounce something we don’t see. As I always say, an enemy exposed is an enemy defeated. Allow the Lord to test your heart. You don’t want any common ground with darkness. You don’t want any false spirit informing your intercession. Pray like David, “Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my mind and my heart” (Ps. 26:2 NKJV). If He shows you something, repent and rejoice as you break free.

By the same token, sometimes it’s hard to see the dark in others. That’s because sometimes darkness hides, which is why it needs to be exposed. That demands discernment. If we have common ground with darkness, one of two things may happen: We will point fingers at others when we should be pointing a finger at ourselves. Or we will not see the darkness in others because we are blind to it.

“God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all” (1 John 1:5 NKJV). All things become visible when the light exposes them (see Eph. 5:13).

Our goal is to see people turn away from darkness to light and from the power of Jezebel to God (see Acts 26:18). God delivered us from the domain of darkness when we accepted Christ, and we are told to have no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather to expose them (see Eph. 5:11). We need to get the darkness out of our hearts so we don’t fall prey to Jezebel. Just as God separated light from darkness in Creation, He’s still working to separate light from darkness in people with the truth that sets us free. Ask Him to separate darkness from you and to separate dark intercessors from your midst if they do not want to pursue freedom.

In my new book, Unmasking Jezebel’s Intercessors, I explain why Jezebel’s intercessors are so dangerous. I will warn you, what you will read will disturb you. But it will also open your eyes to the very present danger.

Prayer

Father, in the name of Jesus, help me to follow You. You tell us in Your Word that whoever follows Jesus will not walk in darkness. So help me follow Jesus in all my ways for all my days. Help me to see any areas of my life where I am not following You wholeheartedly, completely, with all sincerity and with full abandon.

Father, I don’t want to be a hypocrite. I don’t want to be one of Jezebel’s puppets in prayer. I don’t want to present a form of godliness while denying Your true power. Help me turn away from anything that hinders love. Show me any secret sins in my soul that I cannot see so I can quickly repent and turn my heart completely back to You.

Forgive me for all the times I did not obey Your Word or Your Spirit when I knew the right thing to do. Forgive me for all the times I did not pray when You led me to. Forgive me and cleanse me from all unrighteousness for Your glory. Cleanse me from the darkness. Make my eye single. Dispel the darkness. I want Your light and life to show through me. Free me from every evil thing and let Your face shine upon me and give me peace.
