Beloved, there are two mistakes that many children of God fall into without even realizing it. We are going to talk only about the first mistake, accompanied by a powerful prayer to break any negative influence related to this mistake. In another post, we will address the second mistake, so subscribe so you don't miss it. Without further ado, let's begin. The first mistake is asking the enemy for help when we are going through a trial, in distress, or when our faith is being severely tested. But today, I come to tell you this with love and truth: Never do it! Never ask your enemies for help.
The reason is simple: Every time you ask your enemies for help, your situation gets worse. Every time you seek help from them, you give them an opening to destroy you. But first, let's ask ourselves this essential question: Who are your enemies?
The Bible answers clearly in 1 Peter 5:8: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”
Your enemy is not your neighbor, your colleague, or even your blood brother. Your real enemy is the devil and his entire army. They are demons, evil spirits, and also all those he uses as instruments: occultists, sorcerers, fortune tellers, charlatans, magicians, and sometimes even people you believe to be on your side.
You must understand one thing:
Your enemies will never seek your good. They will not help you get back on your feet, but rather to knock you down even further. They will not listen to you to comfort you, but to trap you. They will not reach out to save you, but to chain you down. They are just waiting for an opportunity, a flaw, a small opening in your life to act. And often, that opening comes when you are weak, discouraged, or desperate. It is in these moments of fragility that the enemy comes closest. It is when you feel alone that your adversary makes you believe that he can help you.
But make no mistake: the devil gives nothing for free. Every favor he grants you comes at a price. Every help he offers you hides a spiritual debt. And every solution he proposes ultimately distances you from God. That is why, beloved, you must be vigilant. Do not run to those who walk in darkness when God's light seems slow in coming. Do not trust those who use magic or unclean spirits to help you. Because in reality, they only bind you further. Remember: your help will never come from your enemies. Your help comes from the Lord, the living God, the one who does not betray, the one who does not lie, the one who loves you unconditionally.

There is a story in the Bible that perfectly illustrates what we are talking about, and it was written for our instruction and edification. There was a king of Judah named Asa who was facing war. Instead of relying on God, instead of seeking the Lord, Asa decided to seek help from the king of Assyria. He took a large amount of gold, silver, and precious objects from the temple to pay this foreign king to come and help him.
But guess what?
The king of Assyria took all that gold and silver and never came!
The result: King Asa's situation got worse. He lost his wealth, his dignity, and God's favor. He thought he was buying peace, but he bought shame. He thought he was buying deliverance, but he bought betrayal.
Beloved, remember this: whatever the enemy gives you, he always ends up taking back with pain. Whatever the enemy promises you, he always turns against you. Never seek help from those who want to see you fail. The Word of God says in Psalm 146:3: “Do not put your trust in princes, in mortal men, who cannot save.” And in Jeremiah 17:5, God declares: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man, who depends on flesh for his strength and whose heart turns away from the Lord.” Every time you choose to trust in an enemy, you turn your eyes away from God. And when God withdraws, the enemy finds a place to reach you.
Beloved, we have just talked about a serious mistake that many children of God make without realizing it: asking their enemies for help. This mistake may seem insignificant, but it opens the door wide to spiritual destruction. For every time you ask your enemy for help, you give them access to your life, power over your situation, and sometimes even the authority to slow down your destiny. So, make the choice today to seek your help nowhere else but in God. When you are in distress, run to prayer. When you are in need, wait for God's timing. When everything seems closed, keep the faith, for God never abandons His own. Remember these words: I lift up my eyes to the mountains... Where will my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1-2. Your help does not come from man. Your help does not come from the promises of the world. Your help comes from the almighty God, the one who loves you, protects you, and delivers you.
Before closing this message, I want you to make a promise to yourself, a declaration of covenant with God. Say it out loud: “I, [your first and last name], will never ask my enemies for help.” Repeat it with conviction: “I, [your name], will never seek help anywhere other than from God.” Now that you have declared it, let us seal it in prayer.
Let us pray.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,
I declare that you will never ask your enemy for help. No situation, no distress, no trial will cause you to seek help from those whom Satan uses. I pray and prophesy over your life: Your enemies will never see you defenseless. Your enemies will never see you in shame. Your enemies will never see you crying without help. Your enemies will never be your solution.
Even when the situation seems impossible, even when everything seems closed, even when men abandon you, you will lift your eyes to heaven and your help will come from the Lord.
I declare in the name of Jesus Christ:
You will not seek help from your enemies.
You will not seek support from your enemies. You will not ask your enemies for advice. You will not bow down before those who want you to fail. May the Lord be your support and your refuge. May the Holy Spirit be your counselor in times of confusion. May the Lord send you divine help, heavenly help, sincere help from the throne of God.
I declare that your enemies will not witness your distress, but they will witness your victory. They will not see your tears, but they will see your promotion.
They will not see your humiliation, but they will see your restoration. And you who are listening to this message, may this prayer become your spiritual seal. You are under the covering of Almighty God. You are protected by the blood of the Lamb. You are hidden in the hand of the living God. It is written that no weapon forged against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment, you shall condemn. So shall it be now and forever. In the name of Jesus Christ we have prayed.
Amen.
Now, write “AMEN” in the comments to seal this prayer, because your “AMEN” means “so be it” or “let it be done to me.” Your AMEN is a spiritual weapon that activates prayer in your life!
And if this message spoke to you, share this video with at least three people: your family, your friends, your brothers and sisters in Christ, or in your groups so that this liberating truth can touch more lives.
Beloved, remember: whoever relies on God will never be confused.
Don't seek help from those whom the enemy uses; seek it in God's presence, and you will see His hand lift you up. In the next video, we will talk about another very dangerous mistake that many Christians make without knowing it. This part is very important for your spiritual protection and stability in life and faith.
