NOTE: Due to length, this prayer has been recorded ONCE, for agreeing and repeating.
PLEASE DO NOT PRAY THIS PRAYER, OR ANY SPIRITUAL WARFARE PRAYER, IN A CARELESS OR HAPHAZARD FASHION. BE SURE TO READ THROUGH AND/OR LISTEN TO THIS PRAYER FIRST, PRIOR TO SPEAKING THE PRAYER WITH INTENTION AND DETERMINATION.
The text used for this recording is included below. The original prayer was designed for persons seeking to renounce a particular cultic organization in South Africa, but we have here adapted the language for more general use. A separate portion dealing with marriage has not been included here. We recommend that you read or otherwise download and refer to the FREE PDF BOOKLET giving the full content and background, via the link at the bottom of this page.
Deliverance minister and author Amanda Buys has stated, "These prayers have been written according to personal opinions and convictions, which are gathered from many counseling sessions and our interpretation of the Word of GOD, the Bible. In no way have these prayers been written to discriminate against any persons, churches, organizations, and/or political parties.... What does it mean to renounce something? To renounce means to speak of one’s self. If something has been renounced it has been rejected, cut off, or the individual is refusing to follow or obey. Other words that fit with the subject of renunciations include refuse, repudiate, and resist. It is a joy to realize that by the act of our repentance, we can appropriate the finished work of Messiah Y’shua (Jesus). His shed Blood reverses all curses... We have seen the effect in so many people’s lives of confessing, repenting, and turning away from the idolatry and demonic covenants that have permeated their very existence.... To confess involvement, the prayer is read out loud, preferably with one or more witnesses present, as well as with a trained counselor... The counselor now comes in agreement with the individual and conducts spiritual warfare against the kingdom of darkness as the Holy Spirit leads to deal with each one of the elements that is contained in the prayer... These prayers are however only a guideline. If there are concepts or sections that the Holy Spirit highlights for you as you pray, then we encourage you to address these, and ask the Holy Spirit to direct you on how to bring the breakthrough".
PRAYER OF RENUNCIATION: False Apostles, Teachers, and Religion
FATHER, I come to You in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth and confess that Jesus is my Lord and Master. His Blood has set me free. His life is within me and I am a child of God.
I renounce my belief in the false church, and the apostle, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, elders, priests and assistant deacons.
I renounce the baptism by the sprinkling of water unto repentance, the holy communion through which I receive forgiveness of sin and the holy seal confirmed through the laying on of hands by the apostle.
I renounce the ministering of the three holy sacraments to the souls of the dead on behalf of the dead by the living.
I renounce membership as a "soul bride".
I renounce the forgiveness of sin spoken over me by the apostle.
I renounce every “holy communion” partaken in that could only be served by the apostle.
I renounce any recognition/authority given to the apostle to administer God's will and grace.
I renounce the teachings of the apostle.
I renounce that I have submitted myself in word and deed to the powers/ authority in the congregation.
I renounce the acceptance of the sign of the “Holy Cross” on my forehead and chest, any guardian angel, the opening of the third eye or any ungodly access to the spirit dimension.
I renounce any acknowledgement given to the apostle to administer the grace of God.
I renounce any false baptism in holy fire.
I renounce the power the apostle has to make someone die. I cancel any words or deeds he performed over any of my loved ones or myself, in Jesus’ Name.
I renounce the power I received to curse others.
I renounce the “gift” I have to send evil spirits to those who are not interested in the church.
I renounce the apostle’s authority to state that if I leave the church I forsake God.
I renounce the power of the people in the church who state that they can curse my house and declare accidents and poverty over my family.
I renounce my parents as my “saviours" and any promise I made as "saviour" of my own children.
I renounce the oath that my parents must bring me blameless and spotless before God and any similar promise I made as parent, so that the Blood of Jesus is ignored.
I renounce any promise made to raise my children according to the will of God as announced by the apostle and if I myself were raised that way.
I renounce any laying on of hands by any apostle.
I renounce the false teaching of baptismal sprinkling for conversion, the cleansing of the heart as well as the baptism in the Holy Spirit and with fire in order to become a child and heir of God. (Since infants cannot and do not understand).
I renounce every “shepherd” of my soul in the congregation in authority over me.
I renounce the holy covenant I made when I accepted responsibility as member of the congregation. I cancel out the witnesses against me as well as the act of sealing my confirmation with the Holy Communion.
I renounce that I am one of the 144,000 "chosen ones" of God and that the teachings of the false church is the only way to obtain eternal life.
I renounce having perseverance in the teachings of the apostle.
I renounce being dedicated to Jerusalem, mother of us all in the spirit. (She is recognized to bring forth rebirth to blessed souls. Through fulfilling her covenant with God, many souls receive the mark of the Lamb and are thus redeemed.)
I renounce that I receive a larger blessing if I am at all times in my place (active) in the church.
I renounce any prayer for the dead. (Egyptian rituals)
I renounce the authority of the apostle being the only one with the power to send my soul to the everlasting rest or to Hell.
I renounce that it is possible to communicate with the deceased before the funeral and that the deceased can prophesy through another person and give messages. (This is clearly forbidden in the Word.)
I renounce the apostle as teacher, mediator and ambassador. (To judge you!)
I renounce my belief in the apostle as the one who has the keys of the Kingdom and his authority to either open or lock the kingdom to whomever he chooses.
I renounce my faith in the apostle as the light to the nations and that only he can preach the Gospel.
I renounce my faith in the apostle that he is the only way to see the Father or Christ.
I renounce the apostle as mediator (in Jesus’ place).
I renounce the doctrine that states heaven is a place of tranquility, blessedness and peace and that I will only enjoy it if I humble myself and become as a child in the house of the Lord. (Such a child is an angel in heaven and every day sees the face of the Father who is in Heaven!)
I renounce any form of worship of man or the apostle.
I renounce the denial of the second coming of Christ and that it is taught that He has already come.

I renounce the sacrament of the “holy seal” through which God locks away my unrighteousness.
I renounce the right of the apostle to have given me the Holy Spirit.
I renounce the ability of the apostle to seal a baby (a baby is too small to understand). I renounce the lie that the parents are responsible for the child’s sins and that the father will be punished if the child is not raised in the teachings of the church.
I renounce any evil spirit of demonic insight and clarification I received by the laying on of hands by the apostle.
I renounce the foundation laid firm with this seal on my forehead as well as the curse that I will go to hell without this seal.
In the Name of Jesus I break every demonic seal that has been placed upon my family and me. I bind every demon assigned to this seal and command you to go to the Feet of Jesus. I cut myself free from every power and principality that has been assigned over my family and me and I destroy every demonic altar speaking against us with the Fire of God!
Thank You Abba Father that You now set me free. Thank You that there is only One Mediator, namely Jesus the Messiah. Thank You for the Blood of Jesus that cleanses me.
Thank You for the Sword of the Spirit that now severs me from the false church.
I praise Your Name for the Truth that sets men free!
