Fearless Prayer
Not quite two years ago I found myself praying, trembling with fear as I recited the words with as much conviction as I could muster. Hail Mary, Our Father and various passages I was drawn to in the Bible.
When we moved into this home, it was festering with demonic beings, an ancient land spirit and lower astral entities. Unaware of how to combat this situation, when I would pray I could feel them drawing closer, taunting me. Their presence magnified and the energy around me amplified, drenched in fear and doubt.
The energy of these prayers remains quite powerful and protective, in my experience, yet as the words fell from my mouth I felt frustrated in the lack of shifting I was hoping for. I didn’t understand at the time that my fear was blocking the results I sought after.
The hurdle was jumped and cleared eventually, and I learned so much about the different ways to approach, face and remove these beings. Each type of entity needed different responses, and some of the measures taken were quite creative.
Now that I am empowered when it comes to protecting my home and self from such attacks, I approach prayer with a whole new energy. Early this afternoon I found myself in the basement moving some items around when a familiar feeling crept up on me.
As much as I have cleared and protected this home with the help of friends, crystals, nature spirits, dragons, angels, galactic guides and more, every now and then something still pops to the surface for attention or portals end up opening or being exposed. Every time, I tackle it head on.
So when I was moving and emptying the contents of heavy bags into the basement, a being came up from behind and wanted to be known, wanted to instill fear in me. It knew that I was acutely aware of its presence and wanted me to know that it did not want me there.
I carried on, calling on spirit teams and crystal energy to sweep through the space, amplifying the activated grids under our home and the light that shines throughout now. I did some clearing and added some protection as I put away the last of the groceries into the makeshift fridge.
Then, I felt nudged to pray. This time, as I prayed, I prayed with confidence, allowing the energy to run through me and all around me. I prayed with a smile and a warmth within me. I prayed with conviction.
The difference between now and the fall of 2024 is amazing. It takes me back to that time, and all that I endured, all that I overcame.
There is still some work to be done on my end later to clear what is lingering down there this afternoon, but I know I don’t have to drop everything to address it. I know that this home is still a safe space, and the knowledge I have acquired will carry me through.
When you are dealing with fearful situations, the more you can trust your inner power and strength, the easier it is to move through to the other side. I learned this the hard way, but I am always grateful for the experience and how it brought me to this current state of being.
