Acts 16:16 – I Samuel II
EVERY FAMILY AND BUSINESS HAS A REDEMPTIVE PURPOSE.
Python spirit tries to destroy this redemptive purpose. Python always hangs around the following:
1. Worship
2. Intercession
3. Money
4. Government (Authority) especially true Apostolic or City Government
Four faces of Python work closely together. These are:
1. JEZEBEL which is occult-empowered - It is anti-prophetic and manifests a great deal in control.
2. LEVIATHAN which is PRIDE - It bites down and then twists. It twists the word, motives, your ability to understand another, others ability to understand you, it twists communication. It is the river dragon. It likes to manifest near water even physically.
3. ABSALOM which manifests in Spiritualized Ambition. - It loves to manifest among Believers. It is well camouflaged and all about “me”. It’s selfish ambition, self-promotion, trying to take over, betrayal.
4. PYTHON which manifests in Compromise. - Anti-apostolic and hates prayer, especially night and day prayer.
CHARACTERISTICS OF PYTHON
1) Python is a territorial spirit that gathers and communicates information about the destiny, the activity, the calling, the anointing, the mission and the level of spiritual authority in the life of those in its territory. It guards its territory.
Its goal is to:
a) Broadcast information
b) To mark people for demonic pressure and to squeeze out unwanted and threatening ministry in a city or a region, especially if it’s apostolic level authority that’s coming into the city.
2) Python spirit desires to work through people and give the appearance of revelation, discernment, prophecy and the ability to tell the future, to be accurate.
Outside of church, it manifests in New Age, Channeling, Fortune-Telling, Horoscopes, etc. Inside the church, it manifests through prophetic people who refuse to submit to authority and without them knowing it, they begin to receive 2nd Heaven revelation and they begin to prophecy what the devil would like to do. People flip back and forth from authentic revelation and prophecy to rebellious activity, slander and gossip.
3) The Python spirit shows up in ancient history, the Old Testament and the New Testament and Greek mythology where it guarded the gates of Delphi. If people wanted information they paid for it. It’s the same today with Psychics, etc.
While Python is working, God is exposes how deep, crazy, fearful, this Jezebel is. The many faces of Jezebel are terrorized by anybody getting a little bit of God. They are hysterical and will resort to brutality rather than let someone get more of God. This spirit does not want you to believe the prophecies about yourself, does not want you to receive anointing. It does not want you to stand up and believe who Christ says you are and that you have access to revelation and the prophetic and the Word of God is real.
This Python spirit is afraid of anyone who looks just a little bit like they might threaten the territory. It’s not afraid of religion,but it is afraid of the anointing, apostolic life, intercessory prayer, the prophetic and worship. It’s scared to death that someone may wake up in the night and pray!
HOW THE BELIEVER CAN DEFEAT NAHASH/PYTHON
1. Seasons of prayer – when leadership calls seasons of prayer, Python gets nervous.
2. When the people begin to weep before the Lord because they recognize their inability to save themselves.
3. Ask for and receive a fresh move of the Spirit of God and His power.
4. Allow the Spirit of God to burn in you a fresh, holy passion and a holy burning anger against demonic intimidation, which is the opposite of passivity. It is a sanctified anger at the encroachment of the enemy for my/family destiny.
5. Allow the Holy Spirit to act prophetically through you to give you prophetic proclamation to announce what God says over demonic encroachment on God’s territory and God’s people.
6. Allow yourself to be an instrument of prophetic, apostolic intercession to proclaim God’s authority over a situation and allow the terror of the Lord to fall on people and produce a supernatural, united gathering.
A true, prophetic proclamation coming through the lips of a believer releases a shift in the climate spiritually over a family, a city and a nation. If the enemy has been saying something over my family line and my destiny, looked before me and sees nasty things which happened in the generations, then make prophetic proclamation on the other end. Fast and pray and ask Holy Spirit to fill you. Pick out scriptures that go against everything negative the enemy has been saying and you say what the Lord says and watch what happens. There will be a shift over that situation.
Allow the Lord to release through you a promise, a prophecy, confidence and a divine strategy. Allow the Lord to release through your lips a promise, a prophecy, confidence and a divine strategy. Prophetic intercession leads to prophetic declaration of apostolic levels.
Allow the Lord God to use you as an instrument of faith and boldness in the face of shame. The enemy is vulnerable to faith.
Allow the Lord God to put the enemy to flight by your expressed and activated faith. No mercy for the enemy. Don’t get half-delivered and then back off. Re-affirm the kingship of the One True God over your life. Cut off whatever the Lord says, even if it’s painful or precious.
Seven points of important observations (concerning the spirit of Python): Phyllis Ford - These were keys that were provided to me in intercession in combating and uncovering this enemy. Remember, the serpent in Genesis was a beguiling one: seeking to convince Eve that God said something that He didn’t say and twisting even the intend of God’s word. This spirit will use religious traditions, the law, and self-righteousness to control/restrict and manipulate people within the church.
Because idolatry, deception, and divination are the foundation of this spirit ---watch false doctrine and even the refusal to respect Godly authority. Read 2 Corinthians 10. Utilize these scriptures over the enemy. “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; (vs.
The assignment of this enemy is to break down God’s plans and purposes by attacking various individuals and trying to cause confusion/strife among the group that is moving forward to accomplish the work of God. (Undermining leadership, rebellion).
A python is known to lay eggs in many places—when in intercession, and while breaking its power tread upon the enemy’s territory and destroy the eggs as well. God has given us the “power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” (Luke 10:19).
Isaiah 59 gives a lot of insight into the serpent’s mindset and activity. There are also keys to destroy his lair (den). The word cockatrice means poisonous snake or adder. Strong’s 06848 Hebrew word: Tsepha. (read also Proverbs 23:23-33, Isaiah 11:6-12, Jeremiah chapter 8 for even greater insight on how to combat this spirit). Remember, this enemy feeds upon fear—Utilize the sword of the spirit which is the word of God to deal with the lies/deception coming out of the mouth of this enemy. Hebrews 4:12 Pray also for strong discernment.
WHAT GOD WANTS TO SETTLE FOREVER: Anywhere the enemy wants to establish himself, is a testimony for deliverance. If the enemy marked you for shame, know God has marked you for deliverance. God wants us to know that we don’t have to make treaties with the Nahash/Python spirit. God’s clear message is, anytime you need deliverance, send word, you have a King who can and will deliver you.
PRAYERS OF REPENTANCE: Repentance of control, manipulation, pressurizing people, squeezing people to get my way, manipulative prophecy, gossip, slander, prophecy while in rebellion to an authority, especially a church, using spiritual gifts and at the same time refusing to submit to the authority in your life – that’s Python.
I confess the sin of my ancestors, my parents and my own sin of manipulation and control and pressure and of co-operating with the Jezebel spirit and a Python spirit. Forgive me Lord, I choose to forgive and release all my ancestors, any city authorities or any church authorities for the sin, the curses and the consequences in my life.
I ask you to forgive me Lord, for this sin of Python, for yielding to it and to the resulting curses, and I receive your forgiveness. On the basis of this forgiveness, Lord, I choose to forgive myself for involvement in this sin of Python, control and pressure. I renounce the sin and the curses of Python. I break this power from my life and the lives of my children through the redemptive work of Christ on the cross.
I confess my sin and my ancestor’s sin of believing the lie that I must compromise with Satan, surrendering my vision, surrendering intercession, and surrendering my city to Python. I forgive those who have contributed to my forming this ungodly belief. It is a lie and I renounce it now.
I receive God’s freedom from this sin and the resulting curses and I receive the authority and the citizenship of Jesus Christ over me, over my church and over my city. I am a citizen of the Kingdom of God and I declare His rule over this city”. I repent for surrendering my city.
Oh Lord, hear this prayer. We repent on behalf of all the Believers who have surrendered this city and cursed this city. I choose to forgive and release them from sin, for the curses and the consequences to my life. I ask you to forgive me, Lord for this sin of dealing with Python, for yielding to him and all the resulting curses. In Jesus name, I receive your forgiveness. On the basis of your forgiveness, Lord, I choose to forgive myself for involvement in this sin of compromising with Python and Nahash.
I renounce the sin and the curses of compromise, living in shame, spiritual dryness, the surrendering of vision, the surrendering of intercession, and the surrendering of cities. I break this power from my life and from the lives of my descendants, of my sin through the redemptive work of Christ on His cross and I receive in faith God’s freedom from this sin and from the resulting curse of Python and Na-hash.
I ask you Lord to forgive me now for receiving this ungodly belief, for living my life based on it and for any way that I have judged others because I operated in this lie. I receive your forgiveness. On the basis of your forgiveness Lord, I choose to forgive myself for making a place for this ungodly belief. I renounce and break my agreement with this ungodly belief. I cancel now and always, my agreement with the kingdom of darkness. I break all agreements that I have made with this demon or any other demons or any other lie of darkness.
I choose to accept and receive the Godly belief that I can live free of compromise with satan. I can live free of shame over my past and my mistakes. I can live free of spiritual dryness. I will see prophetically and carry out the vision that God has given me. I will make war through prophetic intercession for my city, my family and I will see the fruit of this warfare. I will intercede for my city and will see it turned to its redemptive purpose in the kingdom of God, in the name of Jesus.”
DISPLACEMENT OF UNGODLY AUTHORITY: We want the authority of Heaven in our lives, in our church and our city. In Jesus name, as citizens of Christ’s kingdom, we bind all ungodly authority, ungodly spirits, ungodly power, ungodly principalities connected with Python spirits that make war to bind the apostolic move of God in this city, in this church and the churches of this city.
In Jesus name we command Python, unshackle us. We open the jail doors. We remove the shackles through the blood of Jesus and we release the apostolic in this house, in this city, in city government and the churches of this city. As citizens of Christ’s kingdom, we declare we are free from ungodly authority in every dimension. As citizens of the kingdom of heaven, we render ineffective Python and his work to hold back the apostolic in us, this church and the churches of this city and the city government here.
As citizens of God’s kingdom of light, we ask the Father to send His holy angels from the throne room to displace all demonic angels who have taken up authority in our lives, our church, this city and the churches in this city and we ask Father God that all demonic elders, all demonic authority be replaced by godly elders, by godly authority in every dimension of our lives, our church and this city. As citizens of Christ’s eternal kingdom we declare in unity the old era, the anti-apostolic era, the anti-worship era, the anti-prayer era is over in this church, in this city, in us. And we call for the rising up of godly apostles in every dimension.
