My wife and I were attending some funerals in the Texas panhandle this past weekend, which is about the only time our extended families get together these days.  I was visiting with my favorite aunt when my great-grandfather on my mother’s side came up.  Decades ago, he was chief of police in Amarillo and I knew very little about him other than that.  My aunt shared that he was very active in the community, as you would expect, and an active member of the Masonic Lodge or Freemasons.  My great-grandmother was also very active in Eastern Star, the feminine counterpart to Freemasonry.

I had actually suspected that he might have been a Freemason because of his position in the community and the high percentage of community leaders and businessmen that were members in those days.  My aunt confirmed that.  

I have been amazed at how many men and women who attend our Free Indeed classes have fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers who were Freemasons.  More than a sociological quirk, this fact has serious spiritual ramifications.

The “Masonic Lodge” or Freemasonry has been shrouded in secrecy for centuries.  In fact, the very first oath a fledgling Freemason will take is an oath of secrecy about the lodge.  For some, that might seem like fun and games as if pledging a college fraternity.  But these oaths are blood oaths meaning that they swear an oath that to reveal the secrets of the lodge will cause their life to be forfeited. Of course, we want to believe that no one would take that oath seriously. However, some on the lodge are very serious and the spiritual entities behind the lodge take it seriously as well. 

As you probably know, Freemasons ascend in rank from a first-degree Mason to a thirty-second or thirty-third degree Mason.  As they ascend, they are introduced to the “deeper” secrets of the Lodge.  Although Freemasonry is often presented as a Christian men’s organization, as individuals climb the ranks, they discover it is not.  This “secret society” has no qualms about keeping this truth hidden from the rank-and-file members because those members have not yet “earned the right” to know the truth. Most members see it as a men’s social service organization and fraternity.

Although members of the lodge have sworn to keep the secrets of the lodge, many who have risen through the ranks have finally left because they could no longer reconcile the doctrines of Freemasonry with their faith. These men have exposed these secrets at risk to their own lives. At the highest levels of Freemasonry, Jesus is considered a great teacher but not the Son of God.  Other religions are given equal weight in the lodge and, actually, Lucifer is considered the true light bearer rather than Jesus.  Some would even consider the Lodge a source of salvation.  Although this sounds “over the top,” it is well documented both in books and in interviews. 

The average Freemason would deny these realities because they are hidden to those who have not yet earned the right to know them.  These oaths and the secrecy of the Lodge make this a rich playground for the enemy.  Those who have spoken out declare that Jabulon and Baphomet are the ruling spirits over Freemasonry.  These are high level demonic spirits.  Even though the average Freemason would have no knowledge of this, when you take an oath of allegiance to the organization, you also take an oath of allegiance to those who rule over that organization. 

If you are a descendant of a Freemason, then you may fall under a generational curse of those who swore allegiance, knowingly or unknowingly, to demonic spirits who represent Satan. Your ancestor, in my case my great-grandfather, entered into a covenant with the devil.  Exodus 20 declares that the sins of the father’s will be passed down to the third and fourth generation of their children.  This generational curse is an open door to the enemy and gives him a legal right to afflict, torment, and oppress you and your family.  For those bloodlines of former Freemasons…especially this who climbed up the ladder of degrees, there are often real struggles and patterns of loss, financial failure, fear, depression, undiagnosable illness, infertility, and so forth.  

Much of the time, these ongoing issues have spiritual roots in curses passed down through generations.  In order, to get freedom from those curses, an individual must renounce Freemasonry, repent on behalf of their bloodlines and sever themselves from any covenants made by their ancestor.  This is real and this is serious.  So…I am providing a renunciation declaration that I would encourage you to declare verbally in order to sever yourself and your children from the bondage that comes through Freemasonry.  In addition, the Mormon church has its roots in Freemasonry as well and many of the secrets of the Mormon Temple are directly tied to Freemasonry.  Those ties may need to be renounced if you or an ancestor have been part of the Mormon church.


Freemasonry Renunciation Prayer

The following prayer is for those who have had family members that have been active members in a Masonic Lodge or the Mormon church…especially parents, grandparents, or great grandparent, and for those who were personally involved in either of those organizations.  There is a strong historical connection between Freemasonry and Mormonism so we address both.

Father God, creator of heaven and earth.  I come to you in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. I come wrapped in his righteousness. I come seeking forgiveness and cleansing from my sins and all generational sins committed against you and others made in your image. I honor my earthly father and mother and all of my ancestors of flesh and blood, but I utterly turn away from and renounce their sins.  I repent of those sins as well for myself and on behalf of my bloodline.

I forgive my ancestors for any effects of their sins on me.  I renounce Satan and all the works of Satan and renounce every spiritual power of darkness affecting me or my family.

In the name of Jesus, I renounce and forsake all involvement in Freemasonry or Mormonism by my ancestors and myself. In the name of Jesus, by his unmatched authority, by his blood, and by the sword of the Spirit, I renounce and sever myself from any and every soul tie that has bound me to Freemasonry or the Mormon church or individuals that represent those organizations.  

In the name of Jesus, I renounce Jabulon, Baphomet, death, infirmity, witchcraft, the Spirit of Antichrist, and the curse of the Luciferian doctrine. I renounce the idolatry, blasphemy, secrecy and deception of Freemasonry and Mormonism at every level. I specifically renounce the love of position and power, the love of money, and the pride which would have led my ancestors into Masonry or Mormonism. 

I renounce all rituals, agreements, covenants, promises, vows, declarations and any connection made to Freemasonry or the Mormon Temple. I ask forgiveness for entering into those covenants on behalf of myself and my bloodline and submit them to the blood of Jesus to cleanse me from their effects.

I renounce all the fears which held them or me in Freemasonry and Mormonism, especially the fear of death, fear of men, and the fear of trusting others. I renounce all these things in Jesus name.

I renounce every position and title held in the lodge or Mormon church by any of my ancestors.  I also renounce every form of manipulation, deception, and secrecy practiced in Free Masonry or Mormonism and, by the sword of the Spirit, sever myself from the effects of those things on me and my descendants.

I renounce any attachment to Freemasonry or Mormonism in any way and willingly cleanse my home and possessions of anything connected to these organizations – books, jewelry, aprons, pictures, or any symbol or token. 

In the name of Jesus and by the sword of the Spirit, I now repent of any connection with Freemasonry and Mormonism on behalf of my bloodline and sever myself from any covenants, dedications, soul ties, or effects that have come to me through bloodlines.   In the name of Jesus, by his blood and the power of his resurrection I renounce all curses and blessings attached to Freemasonry and Mormonism I may have agreed to.  I also cancel all curses and demonic assignments against me or my family based on any connections with Freemasonry or the Mormon church. 

I plead the cleansing blood of Jesus over any defilement that has come to me through these bloodlines and now declare myself free from any curses or other effects of Freemasonry or Mormonism … in Jesus’ name. Amen

I now renounce the spirit of death and the spirit of infirmity in the name of Jesus and command you to leave me immediately and never return. I cancel your assignment and declare you have no power or authority here because I submit all that I have and all that I am to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.  In the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God and the Holy One of Israel, I command you to leave me now, leave this region, and never return.  In Jesus’ name.  



Blessings in Him….

In my last two blogs, I discussed the benefits and necessity of removing legal ground from the enemy before ministering deliverance. If a person is demonized, it is nearly always because something has given the enemy a legal right to do so. Unrepented sin, word curses , generational curses. soul ties, and trauma can give the enemy access to an individual. These are typically handled by renouncing the sin in the name of Jesus, repenting of the sin on your behalf or on behalf of your bloodline, and then applying the blood of Christ to sever soul ties and nullify curses. Then the unclean spirit can be commanded to come out with much less drama and trauma than doing so without taking away the legal right of the spirit to be there.

There are a few special circumstances where more may be needed to release the individual from the legal claims of Satan. These circumstances involve situations in which a person has entered in to a covenant or agreement with Satan or when someone has been dedicated to Satan or a demon by another person…usually a family member. This is not as unusual as you may think.

Where witchcraft has been practiced in family lines, it is not unusual for the descendants of the one practicing witchcraft to be dedicated to a spirit or to Satan. In some cases, where individuals practice “white magic,” they may believe that they are consorting with “good spirits” and think dedicating children, grandchildren, etc. will be a blessing…as if the spirit they are working with will protect them. These dedications give Satan access until they are renounced. Of course, there are times when a descendant won’t know if a dedication took place. If witchcraft was practiced either as white magic, psychic readings, horoscopes, satanism, wicca, etc., it is best to assume some dedication took place and simply go through the renunciation. I believe it is always best to “cover the base.” If nothing is there, then nothing will happen. If something stirs, then the individual can be set free.

There are also those who enter into agreements or covenants with Satan on their on. Some are members of witches covens and satanic groups. Others may be active members of groups like Freemasonry who are taking oaths and entering into covenants with the lodge, not knowing that the lodge has occult ties that are not revealed until men get to high positions in the lodges. There are also strong historical ties between Freemasonry and the Mormon church so Mormons may also have open doors to the enemy. I will say where there are organizations with secrets to be maintained and penalties for disclosing the secrets, Satan is usually active there. Freemasons and Mormons, of course, may also dedicate their children to the organizations and in doing so, to the spirits that rule over the organization.

Freemasons, especially, make vows and call down curses on themselves if they reveal secrets of the lodge or fail to serve the lodge. When their children or grandchildren, whom they dedicated, are not serving the lodge, demonic spirits have a right to enforce the curses invoked by their father, grandfather, great grandfather, etc. who participated in the lodge. The curses often manifest as unusual health issues or emotional struggles such as anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts and so forth.

You will also find a number of adults who made promises to Satan in moments of despair as children or teens. “Satan…if you do this for me then I will serve you.” They have no idea what they are setting themselves up for and some barely remember the moment. However, Satan remembers the moment and uses it as legal ground to afflict the individual.

In order to take away the legal right of the enemy, these covenants, contracts, dedications, and agreements must be renounced. If these covenants or dedications came though an organization, those organizations must be renounced as well. In addition, soul ties with the organization or influential people in the organization must be repented of, renounced. and severed by the sword of the Spirit.

If the individual personally made a commitment to Satan or has been practicing witchcraft, he or she should…

• Declare their faith in and allegiance to Jesus.
• Renounce Satan and all of his works.
• Renounce the evil powers of this world.
• Break and renounce the contract, covenant, agreement or any allegiance to Satan.  ‘In the name of Jesus, I break and renounce my contract, my dedication, and my former allegiance to Satan.” 
• Sever themselves from the contract by the sword of the Holy Spirit.

You may need to have that person declare each of those things three times.

In addition:  

If occult spirits are involved, have the individual commit to get rid of any occult objects in their house when they return home.Sometimes, if a person has been involved in Satanism or was a satanic ritual abuse survivor, Satanic seals have been placed over spirits of witchcraft to protect the demons. These seals need to also be removed by the blood and the name of Jesus before deliverance begins. “In the name of Jesus and by his blood, I remove and destroy any satanic seals that have been assigned to this person.”

If there is influence from Free Masonry (Masonic lodge, Eastern Star, Shriners, etc.) you may need to call out those spirits as Masonic spirits rather than just a spirt of witchcraft.   Be especially clear about Masonic tokens…jewelry, books, aprons, etc. being removed from the home.  When things are removed, burning is a very good way to deal with the spiritually infected items, if possible. Recently we have discovered from multiple sources that the ruling spirit over Freemasonry is Jahbulon. We have also found it helpful to renounce Jahbulon and any agreements made with him before deliverance begins.

This may sound complicated, but it really isn’t. We simply need to spend time helping the person to whom we are ministering do a reasonably thorough inventory of the things in their life that may have given the enemy access. Doing so will facilitate deliverance and help them maintain the freedom they receive when spirits are driven out. Take your time. Don’t always rush to the battle but discover where the enemy strongholds are that you will need to take down in order to win the war. Blessings.

Freemasonry has been around for centuries. Nearly every town in North America of any size has a Masonic Lodge.The same is true of Europe, Australia and New Zealand. To most people, the Masonic Lodge is a group of men who meet, perform crazy rituals for fun, and serve their communities. It’s like a post-college fraternity. It is amazing how many people who attend Free Indeed have fathers, grandfathers, great grandfathers, along with uncles, etc. who have been Masons and whose women have been part of Eastern Star…the female counterpart of Freemasonry.

Some were just initiates who never went far in Freemasonry or “the lodge,” while others were 32nd or 33rd degree Masons, the highest ranks in the organization. There are, of course, all kinds of conspiracy theories related to secret societies headed by Masons that are dominating the world. Most people give little credence to those stories. However, by design the Freemasons are a fraternity hidden in secrecy. If you ask a mason, he will probably tell you that the lodge is a Christian organization formed to serve people in need and to do good works. He may even believe that.

In the past few decades, some serious research has been done that exposes the secrets of Freemasonry. Many have been revealed by those who left the lodge after climbing to its highest ranks. If you are considering joining the Freemasons or have had relatives who were involved, you may want to pay attention to some of the following concerns that are well documented in many places.

First of all, Freemasonry is a secret society. Those who join, swear allegiance to the lodge and take blood oaths to never divulge its secrets. Jesus warned us about taking oaths and those who operated in the dark… in secrecy. Satan works in the dark. In the end, Jesus promised that those things that were hidden in darkness will be brought into the light. When accused by the Pharisees, Jesus declared that he had taught openly in the temple and the synagogues. He did not operate in secret.

Secondly, true secrets and “meanings” of the lodge are only revealed as men climb higher in rank and earn the right to this secret knowledge. In many cases, Christian language is used and scripture is quoted, but the meaning of those terms is different from the biblical meanings and that understanding is not released until you have climbed higher in the organization and taken more oaths. Those who initially join and swear allegiance to the organization are not aware of all the things they are agreeing to. It is like signing a contract when you have only been allowed to read the first page of thirty.

In addition, though the lodge declares that is it Christian, it gives equal standing to all religions and declare that we all worship the same God. Their God as revealed in the writings of the lodge is not the God of the Bible and Jesus is not recognized as the only way to salvation. In some masonic writings, the lodge itself is offered as a source of salvation.

As members rise higher in the ranks, they must take additional oaths and swear allegiance to spirits that are not the Holy Spirit. They are required to swear allegiance to a spirit that is demonic and dedicate themselves and their descendants to serve this “god” in perpetuity. Of even greater concern is they take oaths that invoke curse on themselves and their descendants if they ever divulge the secrets of the lodge or fail to serve it. In many cases, membership is motivated by a desire for power and wealth. Freemasons are well connected and put members of the lodge ahead of serving or helping anyone else. A desire for power and wealth is not what Jesus called us to.

They take an oath that if they ever divulge the secrets or fail to serve the lodge, their throat should be slit, their tongue should be torn out and their body should be buried in the rough sands of the sea until the tide engulfs them. The allegiance they give to the lodge establishes a covenant of dedication between them and the spirits behind the lodge. The curses they invoked are passed down to their descendants because by their oath, they have given Satan a legal right to fulfill thew curses.If their descendants are not serving the lodge, the curses can be activated.

In many cases, the descendants of freemasons experience these curses as poor health, premature death, emotional distress, business failure, and so forth. These conditions are not usually remedied by medicine or psychology because they are initiated and maintained by demons. There is much more, but these things should be enough to sound the alarm.

For those under a curse because of having been dedicated to the Freemasons and, thus, to these spirits, these curses must be repented of and renounced on behalf of a person’s bloodline in the name of Jesus. They must renounce all dedications, covenants and agreements with the spirits of Freemasonry, and the curses must be nullified by the blood of Jesus. Then the demons enforcing these curse must be commanded to leave.

These are serious matters in the spiritual realm and there is more to be said, but I wanted to alert anyone connected to Freemasonry of the spiritual dangers that they face. If you have that history and have seen patterns of illness and death, mental illness and failure, you may want to seek help in breaking the curses that may have come down to you. We can help and other Christian ministries can as well. Jesus has all authority in heaven and on earth, and by his name you can be set free from the bondage that can occur through Freemasonry. If you need help you can contact us at Mid-Cities Community Church in Midland, Texas.

Blessings in Him!
