Healing from Freemasonry

Many people within our country, including ministers, have been involved in one or
another of the various societies of freemasonry. Often individuals who come for prayer to be
set free of freemasonry have either been directly involved in it or have had Masonic influ-
ences within their ancestry. Simply stated, freemasonry is a fraternal (or brotherly) organiza-
tion that has certain secret rituals.
Freemasonry had its beginning in the 1600s in Scotland and Great Britain, and their
societies have now spread worldwide. There currently may be as many as 3.5 million mem-
bers in the U.S. alone. While the Masons have regarded themselves as a secret society, their
beliefs and practices have been well-documented by previous members and by Christian re-
searchers. Scholarly books have been written on the history of the Masonic rites. This sec-
tion discloses a brief account of why people need to be set free from the harmful effects of
Masonry.
Individuals enter a lodge for business and societal reasons, and to join an associa-
tion of friends upon whom they can rely. Many of the past presidents of the United States
(including George Washington) were Masons, and the back of our dollar bill is filled with
Masonic symbols (such as the all-seeing eye of the Grand Architect of the Universe).
The early history of the practices of the Masons set them in opposition to organized
churches, Catholicism in particular, and the Masons were responsible for various religious
persecutions (in the 18th Century, for example, in several countries, the Jesuits were sup-
pressed by them). The opposition was so strong that Catholics were forbidden to join the
Masons.
Christians have traditionally been against Masonry because the church has stood
against societies that require taking oaths of secrecy, with dire threats of evil (and death) in-
curred for violating the curse (breaking the secrecy). If you have read any of the initiation
rites at the various levels (all the way up to the 33rd Degree), you recognize that they elicit
fear at a very deep level (at one level, for instance, a noose is placed around the neck).
A second reason churches have been against Masonry organizations involves the
physical and emotional ailments which ensue, to members and to the sons and daughters (to
the fourth generation, Ex. 34:7) of those who are Masons. Consider the following examples
as personally experienced and noted by Barbara Cassada, in her book Unto Death. Only first
names are given in her examples below, to provide anonymity.
KristiConditions: manic-depressive, Satanic ritual abuse, multiple personality disord-
er. Connection: her step-father was a Mason.
GeorgeConditions: heart by-pass surgery, manic-depressive; father died of heart
problems. Connection: his father was a Mason.
AllenConditions: Multiple Personality Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, sui-
cide tendencies, migraine headaches, bleeding ulcers, homosexuality, clinical depression:
Mothers conditions: breast cancer, mental instability, migraine headaches, heart dis-
ease. Connection: paternal Great Grandfather and Grandmother involved with DeMo-
lay; paternal uncle was a Mason.
KarenCondition: lupus. Connection: a family member was a Mason; she was in-
volved with Triangle Girls.

DonConditions: himself, infertility; his sister, pancreatic cancer and Marfans Syn-
drome, resulting in open-heart surgery. Connection: Masons in both fathers and moth-
ers family lines.

Cassada goes on to list four full-pages of similar accounts from her ministry, I could
prepare a similar list.
Masons and their family members seem to have an over-abundance of the following
health problems: continuous miscarriages, colon cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, heart
problems, organ malfunctions, Crones disease, brain tumors, Parkinsons, Alzheimers, and
premature death of either children or other relatives.
The most alarming factor with regard to this society, however, is that false gods (re-
placing our Lord Jesus Christ) are involved. For example, Egyptian gods (Horus, Set, and
Isis) are involved at the 31st Degree. With each escalating degree, the confusion and idolatry
increase, until Lucifer himself becomes part of the initiation. The sin involved in Masonry is
ultimately idolatry and involves the rejection of Jesus Christ as our only Savior.
The idolatry curses associated with this membership are derived from the following
examples from their beliefs and practices:

1. The name of Jesus has been omitted from prayers.

2. Blood-curdling oaths (to maintain secrecy) became part of initiation rites.
3. The name of their deity is secret. The central deity is neither Jesus Christ nor God,
and therefore, members are being deceived into committing idolatry.
4. Use of the all seeing eye of spiritual light in the form of a pyramid.
5. Members are promised acceptance (after death) into the Grand Lodge in the sky.
6. Even though the Bible is acknowledged as a sacred writing, only a few selected pas-
sages are used in their worship and beliefs.
7. Every freemason is open to interpret the sacred writings for themselves.
8. Some orders (during initiation) participate in mock hangings, beheadings, and the
drinking of blood.
9. Masons take an oath to be loyal to and to protect one another no matter what the cost.
This loyalty can supersede family members or church membership.
10. Oaths and testimonies are signed with their own blood (a common practice within
witchcraft circles).
11. Oaths include penalties of death or dismemberment for violating the rules or for
breaking their secrecy.
12. Oaths are given blindlyone line at a timeso initiates do not know in advance to
what they will be (and are) swearing.
13. Initiations are performed in darkness. Clothing is opened. A rope noose (called a
cable-tow) is placed around the neck and the initiate is blindfolded with a hood-
wink.
14. At some levels of masonry, initiates are anointed with oil and proclaimed to be
Priests forever after the Order of Melchizedek, (a reference takenbut misap-
pliedfrom scripture).

Order of Amaranth
Order of DeMolay
Daughters of the Easter Star
Daughters of the Nile
International Order of Jobs Daughters

An appropriate summary of the dogma of freemasonry is stated by Rev. Lymon Ellis

in Blinded by the Lie:
Not one of the thirty three degrees of Freemasonry contains any spiritual truth worth
all the secrecy and curses. The secrecy and curses only serve to hide, deceive and
confuse those who would exam Masonry more closely. Masonry takes selected bits
of Christianity, but sets them on top of a very anti-Christian foundation.

Membership in one Freemason society (or their related organizations) opens a spiri-
tual gate that is seldom recognizable. For more details about these beliefs and practices,
seekers are encouraged to obtain one or more of the following resources, giving much greater
detail about the curses of freemasonry and the stories of those who have been freed from
their influence.

Seekers that have freemasonry in their current or ancestral line are encouraged to read
the following prayer aloud in the presence of intercessors.

Prayer for Freedom from Freemasonry

(This prayer model has been taken [and adapted] from Unmasking Freemasonry by S.
Stevens; it is used with permission.) Have the seeker read the following prayer aloud. While
this prayer is lengthy, the extra time is of little consequence to the benefit of assuring that all
open gates are closed.

Father God, Creator of heaven and earth, I come to you in the name of Jesus Christ,
your Son. I come as a sinner seeking forgiveness and cleansing from all sins committed
against you and others made in your image. I honor my earthly father and mother and all of
my flesh and blood ancestors, and also those of the spirit by adoption and godparents, but I
utterly turn away from and renounce all their sins.
I forgive all my relatives and ancestors for passing on the effects of their sins to me
and my children. I confess and renounce all of my own sins in this area as well. I renounce
and rebuke Satan and every spiritual power of his which affects me and all members of my
family, in the worthy name of Jesus.
I renounce and forsake all involvement in freemasonry or any other lodge or craft by
my ancestors, my relatives, and by myself. I renounce witchcraft, the principal spirit behind
freemasonry, and I renounce Baphometthe Spirit of Antichrist and the curse of the Lucife-
rian doctrine. I renounce the idolatry, blasphemy, secrecy, and deception of Masonry at
every level. I specifically renounce the insecurity, the love of position and power, the love of
money, avarice and greed, and the pride which led my ancestors into Masonry. I renounce
all the fears which held them in Masonry, especially the fear of death, the fear of men, and
the fear of trusting, in the precious name of Jesus Christ.
I renounce every position held in the lodge by myself and any of my ancestors, in-
cluding Tyler, Master, Worshipful Master or any other. I renounce the calling of any
man Master, for Jesus Christ is my only master and Lord, and He forbids anyone else being
called by that title. I renounce the entrapping of others into Masonry and observing the hel-
plessness of others during the rituals. I renounce the effects of Masonry passed on to me
through any female ancestor who felt distrusted and rejected by her husband as he entered
and attended any lodge and refused to tell her of his secret activities. I pray for all these fa-
vors in the blessed name of Jesus Christ, my Savior.

lst Degree
I renounce the oaths taken and the curses involved in the 1st (or entered Apprentice)

gree of Masonry. I renounce the noose around the neck, the fear of choking, and also every
spirit causing asthma, hay fever, emphysema, or any other breathing difficulty. I renounce
the compass point, sword, or spear held against the breast, the fear of death by stabbing pain,
and the fear of heart attack instilled from this degree.
I now pray for healing of the throat, vocal cords, nasal passages, sinuses, bronchial
tubes, etc., for healing of the speech area, and the release of the Word of God to me and
through me and all members of my family, in the name of Jesus Christ.

2nd Degree
I renounce the oaths taken and the curses involved in the 2nd (or Fellow Craft) Degree
of Masonry, especially the curses on the heart and chest. I renounce the secret words JA-
CHIN and SHIBBOLETH and all that these mean. I cut off the emotional hardness, apathy,
indifference, unbelief, and deep anger, felt and experienced by me and all members of my

my emotions, and I ask that I be made sensitive to the Holy Spirit of God, in the name of Je-
sus Christ.

compassion, understanding, and forgiveness for me and my family. I pray for all these favors
in the blessed name of Jesus Christ.

saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and what He accomplished on the Cross at
Calvary.

I renounce all fear of insanity, anguish, death wishes, suicide, and death in the name
of Jesus Christ. Death was conquered by Jesus Christ, and He alone holds the keys of
death and health, and I rejoice that He holds my life in His hands even now. He came to
give me life abundantly and eternally, and I believe in His promises.
I renounce all anger, hatred, murderous thoughts, revenge, retaliation, spiritual apa-
thy, false religion, and unbelief, especially unbelief in the Holy Bible as Gods Word, and all
occasions of compromising Gods Word. I renounce all spiritual searching into false reli-
gions and all my striving to please God, who already knows and loves me eternally. I rest in
the knowledge that I have found my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and that I am no more
lost to HimHe has found me.
I will burn all objects in my possession which connect me with all lodges and oc-
cult organizations, including masonry, and witchcraft, their regalia, aprons, books of rituals,
rings, and other apparel and jewelry. I renounce the effects these (or other objects of maso-
nry, such as the compass, the square, the noose, or the blindfold) have had upon me or any
members of my family, in Jesus blessed name.
Holy Spirit, I ask that you show me anything else I need to do or from which I need to
pray, so that I and all members of my family may be totally free from the consequences of
the sins of masonry, witchcraft, and paganismand from any and all things unrighteous.
Now, Father God, I ask humbly for the blood of Jesus Christ, your Son, to cleanse me
from all these sins of which I have confessed and renounced, to cleanse my spirit, my soul,
my mind, my emotions, and every part of my body which has been affected by these sins, in
Jesus holy name!
I renounce every evil spirit associated with masonry, witchcraft, and all other sins,
and I commandin the name of Jesus Christfor Satan and every evil spirit to be bound
and to leave me now, touching or harming no one, and that they go to the place appointed by
the Lord Jesus, never again to return to me or any member of my family. I call on the name
of the Lord Jesus alone to be delivered of these spirits, in accordance with the many promises
mentioned in the Bible. I ask to be delivered of every spirit of sickness, infirmity, curse, af-
fliction, addiction, disease, or allergy associated with these sins of which I have confessed
and renounced.
I surrender to Gods Holy Spiritand to no other spiritall the places in my life
where these sins have been. I ask you, Lord, to baptize me in your Holy Spirit now, accord-
ing to the promises of your Word. I take to myself the whole armor of God in accordance
with Ephesians chapter six and rejoice in its protection as Jesus surrounds me and fills me
with His Holy Spirit.
I enthrone you, Lord Jesus, within my heart, for you are my Lord and my Savior, the
source of eternal life. Thank you, Father God, for your mercy, your forgiveness, and your
life, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen. (Note: Those who have actually been in-
volved in the various degrees of freemasonry are encouraged to symbolically do the follow-
ing, as they read the prayer above.)

1. Symbolically remove the blindfold (hoodwink) and give it to the Lord for disposal.
2. In the same way, symbolically remove the veil of mourning.
3. Symbolically cut and remove the noose from around the neck; gather it up with the
cable-tow running down the body and give it all to the Lord for His disposal.
