9 Things to Pray For If You’re Seeking Spiritual Elevation

I saw this sign at a window of Barnes & Noble, and it captured my eye.

I have compiled a list of things to pray for if you’re looking to elevate spiritually. The gifts of the spirit are unseen, yet they are powerful tools that, when used correctly, can allow you to move to the next level. These gifts include the power to self-heal, increase your intelligence and energy levels, and become resilient overall. Having gratitude and being humble enough to remain a student will open so many doors for you to receive your blessings. This list right here does not contain any materialistic goods because what we’re praying for is eternal and comes from the higher dimensions that can transform you in positive ways. I’m no theologian or preacher; this information is based on my own personal experiences, and I’d like to share it with you all.

So here it is…

1. BETTER DISCERNMENT

You want to become a better judge of character, so you don’t end up in those pitfalls that could lead you to the point of no return. We need to move strategically in this life. This is for your protection. Be led by logic and don’t allow fleeting feelings to cloud sound judgments. Trust in your intuition but this comes with enhanced discernment.

It’s important to seek discernment in conjunction with gaining more knowledge because you want to make sure that the information you’re looking at is accurate. You need to know which messages are actually coming from God and which ones are deceptions meant to distract or send you to a detour where you get lost in the rabbit hole to nowhere. There’s a lot of that in this Age of Aquarius, so do be aware. You want to be able to sift through the lies and false narratives to get to the real truth that is hidden within the lines. As the saying goes, “Chew the meat and spit out the bone.” Yup, just like that.


2. WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE, AND UNDERSTANDING

Be very careful with this one because you might just get it (and you might regret it because as King Solomon said, “the more I increase in knowledge, so does my sorrow”), and when you do, it can be overwhelming. Your spiritual eyes will be open to so many things that you may not be ready for. There’s so much information to digest. Some of it can be very enlightening while the rest could be too heavy and disturbing. You have to tread lightly when it comes to this and receive the information in small doses over time. This is why growth moves at a slow and steady pace. It’s meant to be that way because taking in too much information you’re not ready for could cause some problems like mental breakdowns.

So when you pray for wisdom, it can be a great spiritual investment, but be aware that you may just receive it when you least expect it.


3. DIVINE PROTECTION

Pray for this without ceasing because we’re living in some dark times and those who carry the Light will always be targeted, especially if you are a narcissistic abuse survivor. Spiritual warfare never ends, so that means we have to become stronger and wiser out here. No more running away. No more allowing traumatic experiences to deter us from pursuing the goals we were put on this Earth to do.

Divine protection increases the closer you get to God, the more faith you have over fear, the more bold you become when facing adversity, and when you begin to see the importance of maintaining a clean temple (mind, body, and soul) by adhering to the Laws of the Universe to the best of your ability. This happens gradually as you implement fasting and prayer into your life. I can not stress enough how powerful it is to practice self-control and discipline in order to increase the power of your mind, which will begin to show through your presence. A powerful aura comes from having divine protection because you have attained that. There is power behind standing up for righteous justice and asking God to be present during your battles. The divine presence becomes more potent when you have developed a very close connection to God.


4. HEALING FROM PAST TRAUMAS & BREAKING TOXIC SOUL TIES

In order for you to be able to move on from the things and people who nearly broke your spirit, you must go no contact physically and cut those toxic soul ties spiritually and energetically. Release from it. Declare it out loud whether you’re looking out the window in your dimlit room, standing somewhere overlooking the waterfront, or in your car. Wherever you happen to be, if you find yourself feeling a tremendous amount of pain from chronic heartbreak that rattled even your deepest insecurities and deep-rooted traumas, you need to vent and release those pent-up emotions in a healthy way.

Besides fitness, prayer has a way of elevating the vibrations of a room when you put your heart and soul into it. You have to be authentic. You don’t need to tell anyone else if you don’t feel comfortable, but do tell God. Look at it as a way to release and seek to be delivered from the pain those toxic soul ties have brought you whether those connections were romantic, platonic, familial, partnerships, etc. It’s important to note that soul ties do NOT have to include sexual intimacy. Emotional connections are enough to form a strong bond that is damn near telepathic, especially if you’re highly intuitive and empathetic.

The deeper you love, the more connected you’ll be to those individuals, and once it’s severed by sudden betrayal, the deeper the pain will be, which is why it’s crucial to protect your energy. Cultivate your discernment, so it doesn’t happen again because some people are out here looking for good-hearted people just to use and abuse. That’s the kind of world we live in: cold, dark, and twisted, so be wise and don’t succumb to its corrupt ways. Instead, elevate.

Don’t feel bad if it’s been years since the betrayal happened and it still hurts or triggers you. That just means you’ve been keeping it buried inside of you all this time. You’ve been running away from the pain because you didn’t know how to alleviate it, or you’ve tried everything you could to get rid of it and nothing seemed to work.

You cannot fathom having a positive mindset because you’ve been suffering from depression and mental oppression. Your consciousness hasn’t reached to that point where you can visualize and generate that energy you need to move on. You may have lost motivation, and that can happen at times. It’s normal to feel this way because you could just be exhausted from all the bullsh*t you had to go through. Take a break, but make sure to get back on the battlefield and reclaim what is rightfully yours.

Life is difficult, so it’s important that you practice self-compassion. Forgiving yourself gives you the energy to recreate yourself into an individual who is more resilient with the ability to adapt and overcome. Detach from this material world, so you no longer allow it to control how you feel about yourself. Your value doesn’t stop just because someone rejected, betrayed, played, abused you or broke your heart. I know it’s easier said than done. It is a process, but not impossible.


5. ACTIVATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

I started praying for this often when I reawakened back into the faith on December 2016, and I experienced a boost of growth toward March 2017 when I stopped giving those demons the energy of fear, beginning a new phase of fearlessness. That 3-month time period was when spiritual warfare was at its highest peak because it was a vulnerable time, making it the perfect time for them to attack. This is done in hopes that you get reeled back into the darkness to prevent you from knowing the truth and becoming spiritually empowered.

Picture this:

You’ve been living in darkness for quite some time now. Whatever that may mean to you. It doesn’t necessarily make you a bad person. You could’ve been lost or wounded at the time, and unsure of what to believe in. Then, you experience some sort of divine intervention that brought that spark back, and you felt compelled to pray again after all those years.

You were in that dark room for so long that the demons have grown accustomed to having you as their host. Then, you suddenly decide to walk away from them. They’re not going to like that because you were the one who always brought the snacks. You kept feeding those demons, and once you suddenly decide to pull away, they will go to war with you. This situation is also similar to when you leave an abusive relationship – escaping is never easy, which is why it must be done in silence.

Your awakening pisses off the demons because they’ve lost control of you. It’s like you just sounded the alarm, like when an inmate tries to escape from prison. All those guards are going to do their very best to get you back in that cell, and they will come at you hard. Spiritual warfare intensifies the moment you decide to walk away from darkness and seek the Light for the first time in a long time. They desperately want to throw your soul back into their captivity. During this process, you learn how to combat spiritual warfare because you can clearly see who’s the enemy and the demons behind them. Use your voice to reclaim your power and authority over your life.

SIDEBAR: FOR THE AGNOSTICS

For the agnostic, I understand your skepticism because I was there too. It’s not wise to engage in blind faith, especially with all the corruption taking place among some religious leaders. God does not support those injustices that are done under His name. In my interpretation, that is the ultimate definition of “using Gods name in vain” because they’ve misused and misrepresented what the Creator truly stands for.

How many evil acts have been done “in the name of God?”

Does that mean God supports it?

Just because someone claims it, doesn’t make it so. There’s a reason why Yahshua told the Pharisees that he never knew them.

How do you think the Pharisees managed to gather people to crucify Yahshua despite his healing works?

Through blind faith.
That is why I don’t support blind faith. When it comes to spirituality, you never want to approach it with a blindfold on. That’s why I promote the idea of seeking knowledge and a relationship with God, so you can make informed decisions and use your freewill wisely.

Since God gave us freewill, who am I to try to get in the way of anyone’s choice of lifestyle?

That’s why I stay in my lane and respect other people’s autonomy. Life is a journey that can take us to many different directions we never expected to find ourselves in. Myself included because I never thought I’d be doing this right here. That’s why I mind my business instead of bringing other people down who have different beliefs and perspectives, so that’s why I say I’m not a “religious nut.”

The bottom line is that you need to have confidence in what you stand for and believe in. The choice is yours, and you are entitled to exercise your free will, which is why I don’t believe in “shoving my beliefs down other people’s throats” because I understand how annoying that is. Mutual respect is the environment I like to create where knowledge can be exchanged. There’s no need to hate or bicker with others over matters that humanity is still searching the ultimate answers to.

One thing I know for sure is that there is a Higher Power. I believe that the Creator was the mathematical and astronomical genius mastermind behind the Big Bang, bringing forth creation through a sudden burst of energy that originated from a powerfully divine source. It’s unexplainable because our carnal minds cannot comprehend the complexity of divine creation and order. It’s all very fascinating to me.

I can understand the agnostic mindset, as I was once one myself. Though, I’m not religious, I’m a spiritual knowledge seeker. Experience served to be the greatest teacher for me as my husband always told me back then. He said, “You’ll get your experience,” and I was shocked to discover that he was right. God can show us better than He can tell us as long as we’re open to learning and finding out the truth about our existence. If you are an agnostic or atheist and you’ve read it this far, I appreciate you.


6. BREAKING OF GENERATIONAL CURSES

This one’s a legendary prayer that requires consistency, not only in speaking, but in fasting and through your actions that do purify the spirit in order to enhance the mind. Breaking generational curses creates a shift in the universe, and a great amount of fortitude is needed to endure the quest. This is why it is essential to have a solid and direct connection to God. Obedience to wise counsel and divine knowledge is key to spiritual growth. You have to master grounding techniques and the ability to self-heal in order to be equipped for this journey because “breaking generational curses is not for the weak,” as we’ve heard many say.

Familiar spirits have been haunting your lineage for generations, and you may have been the only one who noticed the dysfunctional patterns and strange events when you were growing up. Those demons have done everything in their power to stop your bloodline from growing and reaching their highest potential. Perhaps you’re the one who’s going to bring forth significant changes.


7. TO BE RELEASED FROM FEAR

Fearlessness is a superpower that will fuel your faith. Once you understand that fear does NOT come from God, you will realize how much it has been hindering you. Fear keeps you stuck, preventing you from taking the necessary steps to put an end to these curses and from reaching your goals. It’s important to develop courage because in this world, you can’t get anywhere without it.

Fear keeps you at a low vibration where it’s easy for you to be controlled, manipulated, and deceived. Opportunists and narcissistic individuals are known for using fear as a way to keep you binded to them.

The main reason why victims and survivors don’t speak up about abuse is because of fear. This is understandable because the perpetrators make sure to put their victims exactly where they want them, leaving them in dire conditions where they’re stuck, but with the right strategy, there must be a way out. Breaking away from the chain of fear brings you closer to freedom; whether it’s from an abusive relationship, situation, institution, or exploitationship. Fear is the element that keeps your mind imprisoned. Release from that demonic bondage, and build yourself up spiritually and mentally, so you can have peace of mind.


8. CLEANSING OF YOUR MIND, BODY, HEART, AND SOUL

It is vital to have a purified mind and soul if you want your temple (body) to house the Light of the Almighty.

Ask yourself: Would you go days without taking a shower?

Of course not. The same concept applies to your spirit. You want to cleanse it often, so you don’t lose yourself. This doesn’t mean you’re perfect or above anyone else. It means you’ll become more self-aware and conscientious of your actions and thoughts. It is because we are imperfect that we need cleansing, and this can come in the form of mindfulness to keep yourself in check and hold yourself accountable. Essentially, going against God is like going against your own existence, and that’s not something we want.


9. CANCEL ALL SPELLWORK DONE AGAINST YOU

This is a spiritual warfare tactic you can use to protect yourself whenever you experience strange activity in your life or health. Once you achieve a high level of discernment, you will see very clearly what is going on and what may be behind it. Of course, we don’t know everything, so we consult with God about these supernatural occurences that tend to happen during “the witching hours.” When you get that sense, then it’s time to pray for the cancelation of any and all spellwork, negative energy, or evil eye done against you, and seal the prayer in Yahshua name. There is divine energy behind that sacred name, and this is coming from someone who once upon a time didn’t want to hear a thing about Jesus.

If you’re interested in learning more about how to combat spiritual warfare, I’d highly recommend you check out John Ramirez’s work. He used to be a Santerian priest who participated in the occult dark arts, so he knows a lot about the other side. He saw the Light and became a preacher. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining a strong faith in God and investing into your prayer life.

Years ago, when my husband first introduced me to his videos, I was moved by his testimonies. It hit home a little bit because it reminded me of those supernatural experiences I’ve had before that I’ve kept buried from my memory bank because I thought I was going insane. So I let it go, and that’s what led me to lose my faith and stop believing in the spiritual realm.

Eventually, I came this far with a better sense of direction and knowledge on how to navigate in this world. Things began to come together when I noticed both the psychological and spirtual aspects of life. I began to heal and grow at an unprecedented rate, especially during my isolation period from 2018 to 2021. Then, I launched this blog site in 2021 because it was time for me to show my writing and poetry, in hopes that it can help others who resonate become inspired and uplifted.

If you made it this far, I’d like to thank you for taking the time to read this post.
