Father, in the name of Jesus, I reject every influence connected to divination, fortune-telling, witchcraft, spells, ceremonial magic, psychic consultation, mediums, spirit guides, and attempts to obtain supernatural knowledge or power apart from You.

Acts 16 describes a woman who had a spirit of divination.

Paul commanded that spirit to leave in the name of Jesus Christ, and it left.

Following that biblical pattern, I command every evil influence connected to divination or occult practices to leave my life in the name of Jesus Christ.

I sever every spiritual, emotional, financial, or relational connection to occult practices.

I reject objects, rituals, agreements, teachings, and consultations intended to provide supernatural power outside God.

I decree that fear of curses, hexes, spells, readings, predictions, and rites will not control my mind.

Jesus Christ has rescued me from the dominion of darkness according to Colossians 1:13.

I cancel my agreement with every prediction that contradicts God’s truth.

Another person’s words will not become the controlling prophecy over my future.

Let the fire of God’s holiness burn away every remaining attraction to counterfeit spiritual power.

Let every dark influence be expelled and every lie be replaced with Scripture.

I will seek guidance through God’s Word, prayer, godly wisdom, accurate information, and the Holy Spirit.

I will not seek hidden knowledge through forbidden spiritual practices.

I belong completely to Jesus Christ.

My worship, future, mind, body, and home belong to Him.

In Jesus’ name, amen.
