forgive me if I'm being too blunt

...Holy Spirit told me to share it with all.
Here's the question
(and my answer below):
====
"I found out that my father made some covenants with
evildoers so that me and my sister would have misfortune.
My sister passed away last year, but her life was full of
misfortunes, failure, torment (she was diagnosed as being bipolar).
Her marriage failed, she lost her job and her house and
her health and she had a massive stroke and was paralyzed
for 8 years. Later she died of starvation due to depression.
I've had a series of poverty and losses and now my
daughter is experiencing the same as me -
car repossession, evictions, unemployment,...
I've had two cars repossessed and two evictions and now
live with a Christian lady as I try to get back on my feet.
I have not had employment in five years.
I was introduced to a bishop who specializes in deliverance.
He had me to repent, acknowledge, accept Christ which I
have already done for years now, and renounce the powers
of darkness.
Do I need to do anything else in terms of prayer bullets?"

My ANSWER:
Thank you for your email.
Please bear with me as I am not going
to pull any punches. Forgive me if I'm
too blunt.
How I would handle it is this:
I would first of all make sure I'm NOT living
in any known sin... e.g. unforgiveness, sexual
immorality, spiritual laziness, etc.
Then I would, as a matter of urgency, begin to
learn how to pray for myself. By myself.
Instead of running around looking for one bishop
or the other to pray for me. That is so critical.
After that, I would apply the principles of prayer
I have learnt to effect self-deliverance from all
those evil covenants.
I'd prepare for the long-haul because something that
has been running in the bloodline for decades cannot
be wished away with just one week of prayer.
I would train myself to FAST, study the Word of God
and learn the ability to hear the Voice of God
directly and clearly for myself -- not through a 3rd
party (that comes after GENUINE baptism in the Holy Ghost).
(Added) I would search for a Bible-believing church that
also places much emphasis on prayer, holiness, and the
Word ... and make sure to be actively serving in some
capacity ... should not just be a bench-warmer.
Finally I would stick with midnight prayers through thick
and thin, discouragement, calamity or whatever, always asking
and receiving direction from God's Holy Spirit everyday.
Sounds hard?
The alternatives are even HARDER... with NO guarantee
of results at all.
But if you do it the way I've suggested, results are
guaranteed. But I cannot give you any time frame.
Only God knows when He would answer.
And how He would choose to answer.
But HE WILL surely answer.
What gives me such confidence?
You will get a clue in my f'ree ebook.
Go read pages 105 to 107 and then decide for yourself ...
