What? Am I really going to give you all my trade secrets? Sure! If you want to do this yourself, I am perfectly fine with it! I would love it if everyone knew how to do this and did it on a regular basis. Then I could just bake bread, golf and read novels all the time.

First off and most important: My techniques are for Christians to use. I can work for non-Christians, but these techniques cannot be performed by non-Christians. There is a verse in the bible about some men who try to do an exorcism using Paul’s techniques using the Name of Jesus. The demons call these men out on not really having a relationship with Jesus and trying to use His Name as authority to command them to leave. No relationship equals no authority in the spirit realm. No authority means they don’t have to do anything you say. In the Bible, the men were then attacked by the demons and hurt badly. I am not trying to prove my religion is superior; I am just saying you can’t use Jesus Name if you don’t know Him at all.

The second part of having authority is having permission to work this particular piece of land. You must own the property, meaning paying the mortgage and the taxes. I insist on all mortgage payments and taxes being up to date. If you do not own the property, you must be the one who pays the rent and again, all fees must be up to date. If you are not the one who owns or rents the property, you must have permission for the property to be blessed from the person who pays rent or mortgage or owns it. (I think you can be behind on HOA fees as long as no work is to be done in common areas maintained by the HOA).

Wait, did I say common areas? Why yes I did! When you pay taxes and fees that contribute towards common ownership of certain areas, it is possible to bless those areas as well. This is one of my favorite loopholes!

What if I am only paying rent for a short period of time? Well, you can bless hotel rooms and camping sites as long as you have paid for the use of that property for the whole time you will be there. I always do hotel rooms because you do not know what might still be left in the room from previous tenants. If you wake up with strange dreams in hotel rooms, it could be the stress of travel or it could be related to what someone else has done in the room. 

You can buy anointing oil (I love Abba Oils because they have many scents and they explain the biblical meaning behind each scent.) I will present the client with all the oils and ask him/her to select a scent they find pleasing. This is not a heavy scent but it needs to be something the client likes since they may smell it for a few days. I dislike using the anointing oil full strength so it usually is not as strong in scent. I add quite a few drops to about 1/3 regular oil – this can be any oil you choose. I have used vegetable oil and I have used olive oil. It is up to the client to give me oil if they do not want vegetable oil. NOTE: If there is substantial land outside the house, I recommend using very cheap oil. If there is a big spiritual problem at the location, I may decide to pour a thin line of oil along the ENTIRE property line. This is called a bloodline and it is for great protection or for a strong delineation between properties. Once we mix the oil, we pray:

Dear Lord Jesus who died on the cross for our sins and rose again, we ask you to let this oil represent your blood with all its power and authority. Please bless us as we seek to do your work today. We pray for protection and also for wisdom and discernment to perform this work as you would do it.

Water and Salt: There are lots of places where the client might not want you to leave an oil smudge – pictures, furniture, antiques for example. Always explain where the oil will be going. Whenever possible, put oil where it cannot be seen like under or the sides of pictures or mirrors. In some cases, you should use water instead. I don’t like to use water but if I need to, it is better than nothing. Pray the same prayer over the water, thus turning it into holy water.

Tell the client that the oil will collect dust over time and can be cleaned if needed. Most people just rub the oil in and leave it intact until they decide they need to bless the home again. DO NOT USE LARGE AMOUNTS OF OIL. Just a tiny dab will work.

One extra tool: I am short so I will often ask the client for a long stick or broom handle. I tape paper towel to the end of the stick using duct tape. Then I put oil on the paper towel and use it to anoint tall windows. If ladders are needed, I will make a judgment call on the need to get oil on that window.

If the house is having no known problems, you can just do the doors and windows. Anoint every door and window with a small dab of oil on the top and each side. This is from the bible story about Moses with the Lamb’s blood just before the Angel of Death passed through Egypt. In Christianity, we refer to Jesus as the Lamb because his death was the final sacrifice needed to atone for sin. So, using oil and asking Jesus to let it represent His Blood is our way of telling evil spirits to Pass-Over.

As you anoint each door, pray a blessing on each person who passes through the door. Ask the Lord to defend the house and not allow any evil spirits to enter via guests. Declare in Jesus’ Name that every spirit that enters must leave with the person they came with. As you anoint each window, ask Jesus to post an angel at each window to protect everyone in the house at all times.

I like to be extra thorough, so I anoint many more places. I will anoint every doorway and pray a blessing on each room. If there is knowledge of evil happening in that room, the evil must be repented. Since I don’t want to ask exactly what happened, I will simply ask the client to repent silently or I will repent on their behalf. If the evil was done by previous owners, I will again repent on their behalf stating that the current owners do not agree with what was done there. This is how we cleanse a house where a murder has occurred too. If the murder is cleansed, the ghost attached to that murder can be released as well. Even if there was a murder long before the house was built, the blood from the murder will be deep in the ground, washed away long ago. But the spiritual power cries out from the land where the blood was spilled. The bible even talks about this. Genesis 4:10 is God speaking to Cain, who has just murdered his brother Abel, “The Lord said, “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground.” The blood spilled was causing a spiritual problem. Hebrews 12:23b-24 tells us that Jesus blood can cancel out the blood of a murder: “You have come to God, the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.”

In the bedroom, I will anoint the closet – also asking the Lord to bless how people feel about themselves as they get dressed. I anoint the headboard like a doorway since it is like a doorway to the subconscious and our dreams. I will reach under the mattress, past the fitted sheets to anoint the mattress and pray for blessings during sleep and even sex if that is applicable. Blessed sex is really good sex! I will anoint the ground screws if I can reach them. If there is a serious electrical component to the spiritual disturbance – e.g. the television turns on by itself – I really need to anoint these outlets.

I pay extra attention to bathrooms. I will anoint the shower stall as if it were a doorway. I anoint the mirrors and ask that those who live there only see themselves the way God sees them. I will anoint the places where water comes into the sink and the toilet and the shower head – one touch of oil per water line. I will also touch the ground screws on the electrical outlets.

Computers and TV screens need some attention too. I don’t know if the client watches porn or other graphic things so I will anoint them to try to help these images from being damaging. It would help if the client would repent watching things like that, but if the spiritual issue seems completely unrelated, you can gloss over it until the second visit. Anoint office chairs under the seat where it will not be noticeable.

In the kitchen, go under the sink and anoint all the water lines and electrical lines if there are any for the disposal or dishwasher. Anoint appliances and pray for them to work for a very long time. Pray over the pantry or food cupboards and ask for them to never be empty.

Anoint the garage doors the same you would for a doorway. Anoint the car front and back bumper and pray for angels to guard whomever is driving. Assess the storage areas for problem objects and anoint boxes and cabinets as well. You can also anoint the garage door opener and pray that it always works especially in times of emergency.

In the basement, (why is it always the basement…) you will often find the creepiest feelings. In dreams, basements represent “things under the surface” or “things unseen” or the “foundational issues”. This true in real basements too. Basements are closer to the ground than other parts of the house. It is also where people are likely to go to do something bad. It is also a place of storage. In attics as well as basements, you may have boxes of mementos and childhood memories in the basement. Even things as benign as Christmas ornaments can be troublesome spiritually. Just anoint boxes just in case and keep on moving. Anoint any ductwork you can reach and again dab oil on pipes and electrical conduits. Pray over and anoint the furnace and the hot water heater and any other appliances you can reach. If the basement is more of a recreation area, anoint the TV and computers and electrical outlets as you did in other areas of the house.

Look for items of dubious spiritual origins (listed here). Take a paper bag (or plastic) and anoint the corners. Place in the bag any items you want to isolate and cut off (even if it’s just in case). Try to be spiritually sensitive. Respect any emotional attachment the client might have towards heirlooms and sentimental objects. If they want to keep it, try anointing it with oil or water. If they are willing to part with it, be grateful.

At a minimum, put anointing oil on the corners that define the boundary. If there are decorative rocks, use salt or water instead. If the rocks are big enough and the boundary is short, you can put oil on the bottom of the rocks as needed. NOTE: you may want gloves to do this. I am not a snake handler and I do not wish to become one.

For a more powerful anointing, drizzle oil along the entire boundary making a line the best you can. You can also write verses on stakes and pound the stakes into the ground – all the way into the ground so that no one trips on them. I use large paint stir sticks, cutting them in half on a diagonal to make a point. It is very easy to write verses in Sharpie on the sticks if you write in very small print.

[This same technique can be used indoors by writing the verses on the wall in pencil then painting over the verses. The words become sealed in the wall but still offering a blessing to those who are in the room. Don’t use metallic paint though – trust me on this. ]

As you walk the property, pay attention to where water flows naturally. If there is a stream, anoint the banks of the stream if you can. Listen and watch any pets or animals in the area. Watch to see if they are avoiding an area. Happy birds flitting about is always a sign that the land is blessed. Areas where nothing grows should also be anointed. It can be a sign that there is a curse on the ground from something. Haunted grounds rarely grow anything very well.
