At all cost, Satan will attempt to stop your prayer life. Specially if you are close to God and led by His Spirit.
If your prayers are strong and empowered by the Holy Spirit, Satan will spare nothing in order to stop your prayers.
And if he can’t do that he will attempt to hinder and distract you from praying any intense and targeted prayers.

True Pray is connected to the heart of God. And Satan wants nothing to do with that kind of connection that puts us in touch with God.
Now, there is a kind of pray that Satan loves. It is a kind of prayer he often sponsors. It is selfish prayers which God does not answer.
READ: DON’T GIVE UP
It is prayer that has nothing to do with the will of God and has nothing to do with the promotion of the kingdom of God. It is a prayer that is not born out of the Word of God.
People all over the world believe in prayer. Most religions believe in prayer. But who are they praying to? If you are praying to a false God, one of the evidences is that the heavens are brass and your prayers don’t go any higher than the ceiling of your house, or place of worship. Your prayers should be going to the Throne of the Most High God.
Again I say, there are many religions, but only two kingdoms where people pray and get answers. THE KINGDOM OF LIGHT AND THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS.
One is ruled by Satan and is the kingdom of darkness, and the other is ruled by a holy God who dwells in the Highest place with a humble people who love all people and don’t even hate their enemies.
They certainly don’t condone the evil in their enemies, and if their enemies commit crimes they don’t believe that crime should be forgiven, but punished according to a just punishment.
But in the heart of a true worshiper he will forgive him, because unforgiveness, hatred, bitterness and violence for the individual violated can’t stand before a holy God.
Here’s what Jesus said, when His disciples asked Him to teach them to pray, he said in Matthew 6:9-13, “Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed (holy) be Your name. Your kingdom come your will be done in earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts (sins), as we forgive our debtors (those who have sinned against us). And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil (and the Evil One). For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. AMEN”.

God is a holy God and a compassionate God. He will forgive us of our sins when we ask Him, but His condition for forgiving us of our sins is conditioned upon the fact that we will first forgive everyone who has hurt us or sinned against us.
IF WE DON’T FORGIVE OTHERS, NO MATTER HOW SERIOUS, GOD WON’T FORGIVE US, AND IF WE ARE NOT FORGIVEN, WE CANNOT ENTER HEAVEN.
In just a moment we’ll return to Prayer, but let me just say that there are people who belong to Satanic cults who pray to a very real spiritual being called Satan.
And as they pray fervently and even fast to Satan they get their prayers answered, but they are not prayers to help, encourage or strengthen the ones they pray for, but to curse them and bring about wrecked marriages, and accidents, sickness and death. THAT’S EVIL PRAYING TO THEIR GOD OF EVIL
Believers in Jesus Christ, however, pray for good things to happen to and for the people and not evil and receive powerful answers to their prayers.
They pray for people to get born-again and saved by praying to God and asking Jesus, the Messiah, Redeemer, Healer, and Deliverer to come on the scene and answer what specific prayer they are praying for.
Now believers in Jesus Christ battle and war in the Spirit but they never pick up a sword and battle against people, that’s what governments are for.
As Christians we are taught to love everyone, even our enemies, and to pray for those who dispitefully use us.
On the other hand, that doesn’t mean we just let people run all over us. Christians are strong, and are to stand strong against evil and wickedness, yet love the offenders and pray for their salvation, and continue to pray for the downfall and destruction of evil wherever it’s found.
We pray for righteousness to be established in the land and for peace and prosperity and unity with love and concern for all to be on and over all, in Jesus mighty name.
(James 5:16) “Confess your trespasses to one another and pray for one another that you might be healed. The effective fervent prayer of a righteous man (woman also) avails much)”.
Fervent prayers to God in faith according to His will will get an answer. God doesn’t answer half-hearted prayers, but He does answer prayers that are for our good and the good of others.
Some of you believe Jesus is a great prophet and the gospel even says that He’s a mighty Healer.
If you believe that, ask Him to reveal Himself to You and see what happens?
Many non-Christian people, Buddhists, Jews, Muslims, Catholics and even Atheists are having Jesus appear to them in their dreams, and He is calling them to ‘follow Him’.
Jesus said, in (John 14:6) “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no one comes to the Father, but by Me”.
(John 3:16) “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”.
TO HAVE ETERNAL LIFE, PRAY THIS PRAYER.
Dear God, I know I am a sinner. Please forgive me of all my sins. I know you died on the cross to pay the debt of sin that I owed but never could ever pay.
Thank you for shedding your precious blood for the cleansing of my soul and for the gift of eternal life that is in You, dear Jesus.
I renounce Satan, his power, his works, and his influence over me. Jesus, fill me with Your Holy Spirit in Jesus name. Lord, thank You for hearing my prayer and saving my soul.
Dear Reader, If you have received Jesus as your personal Savior, then follow him always, for He is the Light of the World, and tells us in the gospel that they shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life.” BE BLESSED, DEAR ONE, TODAY.
