There’s growing awareness that Freemasonry isn’t simply a harmless fraternity- it carries spiritual baggage that can affect families for generations. The oaths and rituals spoken in Freemasonry often open doors to oppression, and their influence can linger in children and grandchildren long after the initial involvement.

In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant Pemberton and Katherine Michael share a live debrief from a recent prayer session where they witnessed freedom from the demonic spirits tied to Masonic oaths. They unpack how these oaths can create strongholds, why many people who join don’t truly understand what they are stepping into, and how Jesus brings freedom without shame or condemnation.

Along the way, Grant and Katherine also explore the broader landscape of deliverance ministry—highlighting the importance of forgiveness, situational repentance, and breaking agreements with infirmity. They discuss engaging the Holy Spirit during ministry, exercising authority to command spirits, and walking with patience through the healing process. They also address the role of mentorship, the ethical and financial considerations of ministry, and the importance of listening well to those receiving prayer.

By the end of this episode, you’ll gain practical steps for helping yourself or others renounce from the ruling spirits connected with Freemasonry and break generational ties to step into lasting freedom and healing in Jesus.

So often when healing doesn’t come right away, we blame God, ourselves, or a lack of faith - and end up feeling discouraged. But what if the problem isn’t God’s willingness, but our approach? Through a 5-step prayer model and intentional, extended time with people, they’ve seen Jesus bring freedom and wholeness to every area: emotional, spiritual, and physical.

Step one? Love. It starts with saying yes to the work God calls all of us to - loving people enough to stay with them until they are free. From there, Grant and Kat walk through how to get to the root of pain, close demonic footholds, and speak healing with authority - aligning bodies and souls with the Kingdom of God.

They share practical ways to grow in listening, stories of God speaking in unexpected ways, and how inner healing can clear the static that keeps us from hearing Him clearly. At the heart of it all is this truth: God loves to speak to His people, and He invites us to tune our ears to His voice in every season of life.

In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Kat and Grant dive into the wild and often overlooked world of dreams. They talk about how God can speak to us while we sleep - bringing direction, wisdom, even warnings - and how the enemy can try to twist that same space with fear, nightmares, or confusion.

In this episode, Grant and Kat tackle a question they often get from listeners: “How do I know if I have a demon?”

It’s a fair question - especially when you're dealing with things like recurring nightmares, overwhelming fear, or destructive patterns you can't seem to break. Sometimes it’s just the pizza you ate... but sometimes, it's deeper than that. While we don’t need to go looking for a demon under every rock, it is wise to invite the Holy Spirit to search your heart and reveal anything that doesn’t belong.
