"I was horrified when Terry Virgo encouraged us to get
together in a circle and hold hands as a sign of 'unity' and
to let the power flow through us."(1)
Matt D. from Sussex in the UK wrote the above as part of his
testimony of realizing the error of the Toronto Experience. His
description of the prayer circle contains the very elements that
we have been discussing: a small group in a circle, holding hands
as a sign of unity, and a releasing of power through those in
the circle. While there is no hint of approval for this practice
in the Scriptures, these elements are common in Witchcraft, Gnosticism,
Native American cultures and the current "revival,"
as documented in the first three parts of this series. You may
want to remind yourself of a few facts from these by reading
the sidebar accompanying this article, entitled SUMMARY: Parts
One Through Three.
A VERY IMPORTANT REMINDER
Now I'd like to make a very important point: Pagan Daphne
said, "Ritual space is defined by walls in churches, [or]
by casting a circle in Pagan rituals,"(2) and Wiccan Selena
Fox informed us that the use of the circle and its rituals can
be designed according to one's own traditions, preferences, and
experiences. What these statements do is open up a way of flexibility
for Witchcraft and Gnosticism to be introduced into the church
in an acceptable form. In other words, the form, if bent enough
here and there, would still be Witchcraft and Gnosticism, but
LOOK acceptable as Christian worship and fellowship with a wonder-working
God. Keeping that in mind, let's now look at the revival in the
light of all I have shared thus far.
"SWEEPING" THE CIRCLE'S SACRED SPACE
In Part Two, I quoted Wiccan Daphne as saying,
"Sweeping the circle is a way to clear unwanted emotional
baggage, 'vibes' and to prepare the circle space for casting.
The handmaiden literally sweeps the ritual area with a broom,
often called a besom"(3).
Remembering that Wiccans believe that the walls of a church
form a sacred space, we can ask, "Is there a form of 'sweeping'
or 'cleansing the house' going on in the revival?" Yes,
there is, and at Brownsville, it is done before the service begins,
as seen in the following testimonies. Under the heading "Sweeping
The House," the following testimony describes "200
people who were preparing their hearts for intercession."
"The first part of the service is dedicated to 'sweeping'
the house. We were instructed to grab the hands of two or three
others and move through the auditorium and cleanse the house.
(During the revival services the lost come in by the hundreds
and demonic spirits who have oppressed many are driven out by
the power of God.) These prayer warriors go into action and little
groups of three or four move throughout the auditorium, cleansing
every area of the house. They pray over every seat, imploring
God to touch the hearts of those who will come from many places
to attend the revival services. They anoint the seats of those
in the choir and the leaders on the platform. Deep intercession
takes place everywhere (parenthesis in original).
"The 'sweeping' is done. Throughout the auditorium are
prayer banners. In the second part of the service Pastor Robertson
reminds those present that these are not to be seen as idols.
They are focus points for us as we intercede for revival in our
world. These banners are intricately handcrafted and reflect
the areas of prayer the Lord gave Pastor Kilpatrick: family,
national leaders, healing, pastors, ministries, children, souls,
catastrophic events, spiritual warfare, schools, the Lord's return,
revival, peace in Jerusalem, and Brownsville Assembly. Pastor
Robertson encourages each individual to spend about ten minutes
in intercession and then move on to the next banner.
"Interceding for Pastors
"I have just finished the 'sweeping' and am standing
before the 'pastors' banner. As soon as the intercession begins,
I am overwhelmed with grief and sorrow and tears flow down my
cheeks. I am heavily engaged in prayer for those pastors I have
known over the years who have fallen and are not serving the
Lord. I find myself intreating (sic) God on their behalf, praying
with deep groaning for their restoration. I find that I cannot
move to the next banner. I have never experienced anything of
this magnitude in my whole life. . . . They have broken through
into the heavens and God has come down."(4)
Here is another such testimony of purifying and cleansing
"the grounds of the sanctuary," immediately followed
by the Holy Spirit's arrival:
"The day was destined to be anointed of God from the
start. I arrived at the sanctuary at 11:45am expecting a normal
intercessors meeting to be going on. What I found was far from
normal. Dr. Josh Peters was praying with the other students for
some needs of other students and for the student body as a whole.
He then asked us all to take hands in one continuous loop covering
the entire sanctuary up stairs and downstairs. We then began
to bind the devil in Jesus name and purify and clean the grounds
of the sanctuary. It was so fantastic. Right away the Holy Spirit
came down and made himself known to us. His presence was so breathtaking."(5)
I don't know where the idea of calling down the Holy Spirit
originally came from. Since Pentecost, the Holy Spirit has been
here and we don't have to "break through" to bring
Him down, or get Him to "show up" at Christian meetings.
He is ever present where the Church gathers, but so often lately
we hear about the Lord "showing up" at meetings. As
for prayer circles as described in the previous quote, it's apparent
that the leaders actually form people into these circles. They
are becoming a ritual of the Church, becoming more and more common,
and all without Biblical sanction.
CASTING THE CIRCLE
Although I won't deal much with this, I did want to mention
that just as circles are "cast" by the people themselves
by forming their circle for prayer, there are innumerable testimonies
of swords, armor, oil and such "given" to people in
the spiritual realm. These objects are for the most part "seen"
or "felt" spiritually, but then are taken and used
physically by the person without having an actual, visible object
in his hands.
Casting the circle is taking on some strange forms in Christianity,
such as in a new thing called "stakeouts." For example,
here is an email I received concerning the "staking out"
of the San Francisco area:
"San Francisco All-Night Prayer Vigil . . .
". . . and Stakeout!!
"* WHEN? This Friday, May 22nd, from 7 pm - 7 am
"* WHERE? Voice of Pentecost Church 1970 Ocean Avenue
at Victoria (betw. Fairfield & Lakewood) San Francisco, California
. . .
"Ed Silvoso will be speaking at this Prayer Watch Night
of the Lord at 9:30 pm.
"Prayer leaders from all around the San Francisco Bay
Area will be coming into the City to bless San Francisco at this
prayer gathering. All are most lovingly invited to join us in
prayer for Revival in the San Francisco Bay Area.
"At 4 am, we will carpool to strategic locations and
prayerfully stake out San Francisco, securing the perimeter,
as has been done in Baltimore (cf. David Jehl 2/26/98 [NEW-WINE]
Baltimore Stake-out').
"We will anoint with holy oil the 4-sided wooden stakes
bearing the inscriptions Repentance, Revival, Reconciliation,
and Renewal, and partake of Holy Communion together as we intercede
in Christ's authority over San Francisco."(6)
GLOSSOLALIA (SPEAKING IN TONGUES)
Again, this is a common phenomena that is associated with
the Gnosticism we discussed in Part Three, as well as in the
renewal itself since it started in the 1960s.
THE CIRCLE DANCE RELEASES POWER
In a report on a gathering called "Catch The Fire II"
in Moscow, Bill Cassada reports that power was released through
dancing in a circle at Rosa Church, the largest charismatic church
in that city:
"We were absolutely connected with the Holy Spirit during
this glorious time of adoration to our Lord. There were approximately
1000 people in attendance, and everyone was gloriously entered
in. Over towards one side near the front, Kathleen Balassi danced
in a circle of praise with several of the youth from the St Louis
team and Russian children as well. Near the end of the worship
time, the worship team played a tune well-known to us, The River
is here.' It was not difficult to sing along with that one! Soon
the place was really hoppin' as a dance chain quickly formed
(not hard to do here, Russians love to dance!) and 50-60 people
were leapin' and dancin' to the music around the sanctuary. Also,
all during worship, Russian women from the church danced before
the Lord in their folk costumes. One of their team members is
currently studying with the Bolshoi Ballet Troupe, so you know
the quality of this dance group is excellent! They joined in
the festivities with the other dancers, the end result being
several of the troupe lying on the floor, blasted by the Holy
Ghost! To say the worship was robust and meaningful would be
somewhat of an understatement. You shoulda been there!"(7)
In an "Update from Tula [Russia]: May 10th, 1996,"
we find another testimony of dancing in a circle "before
the Lord":
"We had been so involved in the prayer with Lana that
neither of realized what had begun around us. An exhuberant flow
of worship had spread throughout the theatre. Everywhere people
were dancing to the Lord in victorious praise. The prayer time
had erupted into a party of thanksgiving and joy. Even my own
two left feet seemed to be screeming at me, "Dance, you
fool...Dance!" Just then a line of people swept past me.
They had come dancing down the aisle from the back to the front
of the theatre and were making the turn back when one of them
grabbed my arm and pulled me along. I resisted initialy (sic),
as I flashed back to a church I'd visited once in the States
who regularly broke into this kind of line-dance. I remember
how I'd ridiculed them and written it off as the kind of unbridled
emotionalism I would never stoop to. Lately I'm learning, with
God to be careful what I say I'll never do, because I'll probably
end up doing it. I threw the thought out of my [mind] and joined
in, at least for a couple of laps. Within moments the chain of
dancers spanned, unbroken, all the way down one aisle, across
the front, up the other aisle and across the back to create a
full circle."(8)
THE PRAYER CIRCLE CAN BE USED ANYWHERE
I would imagine that Cassada's being "blasted" by
the Holy Ghost is the same as being "whammed" in a
regular prayer circle by the same spirit. John Spencer reported
this event which occurred in the lobby of a Toronto hotel as
a group prayed in a circle for the "Have Another Drink"
Conference:
"Darrel Stott is coming to Owensboro, Kentucky from July
5th to the 10th this year! He is still ministering in Australia
as most of you probably know. I heard that he has been having
a powerful ministry with healing, signs, and wonders in Australia
for at least eighteen weeks . He will be ministering at my church,
New Life Worship Center, pastored by Crawford Huff. I met Darrel
Stott in Toronto at the lobby of Best Western Carlton Place Hotel
last July. About ten of us prayed in a circle for the Have Another
Drink' conference. Wham! The power of God hit me and I fell down
to the floor along with Darrel and two other guys. We started
to laugh out loud right there in the front of the hotel! We really
became "intoxicated" in the Holy Spirit that evening!
I did not know that was Darrel until he introduced himself as
the speaker the following day at the conference. He had trouble
talking coherently and kept saying, "Hula, hula, hula!"
frequently. He is from the Assembly of God background. You can
read Darrel's article in the January edition of "Spread
The Fire" magazine published by the Toronto Airport Christian
Fellowship. The title of the article is, "It's My Party
And I'll Laugh If I Want To". . . .(9)
THE FOUR DIRECTIONS
My question may have been unclear, as Greg's reply indicated
that he was not familiar with such a practice, but then he described
exactly what I was asking about:
"Greetings! I must confess I'm not aware of such "prayer
circles" therefore I can't comment. However I can share
with you one particular instance at my church where we were all
encouraged to stand around the walls inside the auditorium and
facing the wall, then we prayed for the city. Most times however
we're encouraged to just turn around and face the city, which
is behind us. Such actions are purely faith statements - like,
laying on of hands' is a faith statement - you don't actually
NEED to lay hands for there to be healing, but that laying on
of hands serves to demonstrate our faith that God will heal.
I suspect the same applies where it comes to praying for the
city."(9)
During the period I was investigating this matter, I was sent
many emails concerning the use of the four directions, many of
which were associated with prayer circles. Here is one report
from Diana W:
"About this Tuesday intercessory prayer meeting, [my
friend] Betty said: There were banners hung with a variety of
"needs" written on them, and folks were to use these
banners to specifically pray for the needs. About an hour into
the meeting, the intercessors were told to stand and call to
the North, the South, the East and the West to call forth the
"souls in captivity."' By this time, Betty could stand
no more of the meeting and left. Her comment was that it just
sickened her spiritually, and she had to leave."
In a report entitled, "Pensacola: Preparing For The Meeting,"
Cathy Wood describes "sweeping" to begin the meeting,
followed by prayer over the four directions:
"Tonight I went to Intercession at Brownsville. No less
than a thousand people were there tonight, it could have been
much more. At intercession, we pray and settle ourselves when
we first get inside the building, making sure we have cleaned
our hearts and minds from the cares of the world and regular
living. We get focused on what we are here for in the initial
20 minutes or so. Next we begin to walk through the entire building
praying in the Spirit building our faith and just loving on Jesus.
After that we join hands with others (2's and 3's) and we sweep
the building with prayers, asking God to clean up anything left
behind last week as thousands were set free at the altars and
we ask him to save the lost and bring home backsliders this coming
week. We ask him to heal the sick. We pray over every pew, asking
that distractions be held down and that the wooing of the Holy
Spirit will be felt even in the back row of the balcony and in
overflow. When we have done that a while we split up and gather
around the topic banners and pray for what is on our hearts.
Some banners represent, family, healing, pastors, warfare, revival,
schools, country, children, etc. Around the banners tonight I
was gripped with a wave of love for the people praying around
them. It is hard to open your eyes and look at them. My knees
would buckle as I stood near some Japanese men. They were absolutely
desperate to touch the Lord. Their cries in their own language
did not need an interpreter for me to know how badly they wanted
revival. Koreans were here also tonight, and for some reason
I am drawn to the Oriental people. I love all the visitors but
these have a special place in my heart. You can see that if you
go look at the photos I took in Toronto. I guess when you feel
pulled toward a certain area, that's where God wants to use you.
We took the Souls Banner, the Warfare Banner and REVIVAL Banner
to the east side of the room and prayed for the Holy Spirit to
bring in souls this week from there. We prayed over each the
North, South, East and West. Then we turned our eyes to the ceiling
and asked God for Open heavens over Brownsville this week before
leaving. . . ."(11)
INVOKING THE FOUR DIRECTIONS
Sandy Simpson, a missionary in Guam who also has a ministry
of exposing the falsities of the revival, sent me this email
when I inquired about praying in the four directions:
"The following is what the Brownsville group did the
first night they came to Guam. They held a prayer meeting that
went into the wee hours of the morning. I joined them, because
at that time I was still trying to assess where they were at.
Many spent most of the prayer meeting on the floor, trying to
cast a demon out of a Christian lady I have known for a long
time. They then formed a circle facing each compass direction
and prayed that the people of Guam would receive the anointing
and that Satan would be bound.' I was dismayed at this prayer
meeting and my spirit began from that moment on to be stirred
up within me. I was angry with them for the way they treated
this lady and tried to cast a demon out of a person I knew to
have a solid relationship with Jesus. When she did not respond
they became ever more fervent, trying to give her the anointing'
by pressing her forehead for the period of at least an hour.
Her husband had been to Brownsville and had received the anointing'
but she hadn't. I told her a day later that I just wanted her
to know that we cared about her and that these people were just
over-zealous (not knowing yet, at that point, of their heretical
teachings and false anointing). I have seen other groups do this
praying into each compass direction' and thought little of it.
I figured it was just symbolic. I have later learned that many
who do this actually think they are releasing the Spirit' or
freeing the Spirit' or plowing spiritual ground' or whatever.
I now see this as a very New Age concept and do not approve of
it anymore. We do not practice magic as Christians. What we do
is obey Christ by example and witness to the community. The Great
Commission does not say "go into all nations and pray",
it says to go into all nations and preach the gospel. Prayer
is important but it needs to be in connection with the preaching
and witness of the gospel message. The power is in the message,
not some group of people holding hands in a circle and hurling
prayers as if their words contain some kind of universal force,
commanding the Holy Spirit or angels to do our bidding. We are
not here to cast spells, to throw the Holy Spirit at people.
The Holy Spirit is a person. He cannot be thrown. We are here
as witnesses to the grace of Jesus Christ at work within us,
just as the Holy Spirit is a witness to and points us to Jesus
Christ.
Sandy Simpson"
In the above eyewitness account, we have the circle, the four
directions, the coming of the "Spirit" and the projecting
of the Holy Spirit as power, all very typical of what we have
described in other parts of this series.
WATER, EARTH, AIR, FIRE AND SPIRIT
Connected to the four directions of witchcraft and Gnosticism
are the Sacred Elements - water, earth, air and fire - and their
associated spirits, which are invoked while facing each direction.
But there is a noticeable similarity to these things in the "revival."
We are all familiar with the "mighty river" in which
the revivalists immerse themselves (water,) Rodney Howard-Browne's
"Spirit" coming in "like a rushing, mighty wind"
(air,) and references to "fire falling," as well as
the revival's "Catch the Fire Conferences" (fire.)
Although I haven't looked into it, the "earth" element
could be connected to the "birthing by the Spirit"
or with the healing of bodies within the "revival."
In the witch's circle, the "Spirit" is the carrier
of all these elements. In her article, "Sacred Circle, Sacred
Sphere: Mapping Consciousness with Seven Directions," Selena
Fox writes,
"This is the direction of Spirit. Its Nature form is
the Divine Soul stuff that links all life together. It is the
synthesis of the Elements and the directions. In human life,
this is the spiritual realm and the dimension of the Divine in
its many forms. In connecting with this direction, pay attention
to the core of your being --your inner Self. Honor the Divine
as you know it -- Goddesses, Gods, Nature Spirits, Ancestors,
Spiritual Guides, Love, Unity in Diversity. Connect with balance,
harmony, beauty, wholeness, integrity, and bliss. Healing modalities
include dreamwork, inner journeys, understanding inner guidance,
worship, ecstatic dance, drumming, chanting, invocations, vision
quests, and spiritual service. . . . "This map also makes
a distinction between the Element Fire and the unifying Element
Spirit. While in some systems Fire and Spirit are one, in this
map they are separate, since Spirit is viewed as a synthesis
of all Four Elements."(12)
Later, Fox describes a part of her ritual where she invokes
"Spirit" in the center of her circle, calling to the
Divine Unity through which all things realize oneness with the
universe. In the excerpt below, notice the similarity between
Fox's call and what is now the main goal of the "revival"
- the unity of the churches through the breaking down of denominational
walls.
"Finally, stand and face the center, with your arms outstretched
before you. Call to the power of Spirit, of Divine Unity. Call
the Divine by the name(s) you know it. Then, bring your hands
to your heart and experience oneness, balance, and wholeness.
Pay attention to any inner guidance that comes to you. Give thanks"(13).
REVELATIONS
Another commonly reported occurrence in the "revival"
is the "Lord" being present to such a degree that people
have a hard time standing. Such was the case in our next example,
where the "Holy Spirit" publicized students' sins and
brought "new" revelations to the body:
"The Holy Spirit came in stronger and stronger as we
prayed and interceded. As I looked around nearly all the students
were on the floor in the presence of the King of Glory. God then
began to give prophetic revelation to many of the student body.
So profound were many that we were sure we were in the middle
of something gigantic. The anointing was so strong on the stage
that Mr. Cava was even having trouble standing up several times
as student after student came up to give the word the Lord had
given them and they too were having trouble standing erect while
speaking to the student body. The Holy Spirit told some students
to tell of someone that needed to repent of certain secret sins
and others that needed to get serious and to be sure we got the
message, Holy Spirit made many students then begin to intercede
for those needs. So much crying and wailing going on that no
one dare not pay full attention. God wanted our attention and
he had it. Mr. Cava never did get to lecture us in those two
hours and 45 minutes. The Holy Spirit of God was speaking and
he was not playing anymore games. What a day...but then there
was the Revival service....."(14)
POWER OF THE CIRCLE
Power is another typical aspect of the prayer circle. We've
already touched on this, but here is an example of power being
released at Brownsville "in all directions at once."
I think it unlike God to lead a pastor to direct people to receive
what God has for them, resulting in their being "electrified,"
with no one having any idea of what God is doing. All of this
happened as a result of a circle being formed "around the
sanctuary":
"The Lord was just loving on us and enjoying our praise
and worship to him. Suddenly we could feel the anointing so strong
and so fresh. Pastor Kilpatrick came to the podium and said he
felt the prayer teams should circle around the sanctuary and
begin to pray. It was at that time that the Holy Spirit began
to move rapidly it seemed in all directions at once. The pastorial
(sic) staff then began to go out praying for people with Pastor
Kilpatrick leading the way. The prayer team then followed as
Steve Hill told people to receive what God had for them. Steve
said that this had never happened before on a Wednesday night.
The staff as well as prayer team had to do little more than wave
a hand in front of people and they began counting carpet fibres
as the anointing was so strong. Pastor Kilpatrick and then Steve
Hill came up into the balcony. They both prayed for me as they
moved through the congregation and I can tell you that they barely
put a finger to my forehead when I felt I had put my whole body
in a wall socket for a moment. The prayer team members had the
same affect. It didn't matter who prayed for you, it was the
same anointing everywhere. The worship went on and on and I an
not even sure at times if Lyndell Cooley even knew that there
was anyone else was even in the sanctuary with him. He leaped,
twirled, and danced as if it were just he and Jesus in that mighty
fortress of God. Most of the worship team by now were out cold
on the stage and yet the choir (those still standing) sang song
after song. . . . There was no preaching, no offering, or even
an alter (sic) call tonight at all. God was just moving in a
way he wanted to move and not how we wanted to move him. I then
looked down on to the main floor and I and a friend next to me
saw a fine white mist like cloud on the floor around people.
it seemed to move with the praise and worship. It was on the
stage, up in the choir loft and moving around the main floor
area around the stage and engulfing worshippers ever so gently.
I saw this once before during intercessors night last year but
even then it was up in the lights but tonight the lights looked
clear and the cloud was on the floor. 'God is up to something'
Steve Hill says. No one seemed to know what God is doing but
he is definitely moving us to another level. At one time Steve
Hill and Pastor Kilpatrick met on the stage touched and both
hit the floor as the ushers had to pick both men up and set them
in their chairs for a few minutes. GOD IS SO AWESOME ! What is
going to happen next Jesus? I can't wait to see what your (sic)
up to next Lord!"(15)
My friend Annie forwarded the following email to me from the
New Wine Archives. As before, no one at this meeting was sure
what "God" was up to, but "the anointing"
was so strong that many showed the typical drunkenness. The writer
describes the "Holy Spirit" as being "all over"
one woman. Again, these events were vitally connected to a prayer
circle:
"The Pastor came forward to speak to us and he couldn't,
he just started to weep, you could sense the Holy-Spirit was
doing something..Rick asked for the ones who belonged to The
Rock to come forward and to start praying for their Pastor and
his wife, and to put some of the banners over them.. The banners
were beautiful.!!! such a time in the spirit.. Rick asked for
any visitors to come forward and to pray on the congregation,
as a circle was formed.. Some of us went forward and the anointing
was so strong, I was getting drunk and could hardly stand up.!!!
I prayed for one particular lady, and asked that the Gifts of
the Holy-Spirit would be stirred up in her life and asked the
Lord to fill her up.. Down she went the Holy-Spirit all over
her. . . ."(16)
SOME QUESTIONS
These are but a taste of prayer circle testimonies coming
out of the "revival." Is a prayer circle Biblical?
No; we've shown that in Part Two. Do we have any clues concerning
the true source of these prayer circles? I believe I've shown
the origins in the first three parts of this series. Should a
Christian participate in them? I don't think that's advisable.
There are centuries of evidence that a prayer circle is unscriptural
and a pagan practice. They are not merely an innovation of the
modern church, and they are absolutely not described in God's
word. They are occult tools, and if used, will sooner or later
bring about demonic manifestations. SUFFICE IT TO SAY THAT PRAYER
CIRCLES ARE AN OCCULT TOOL ESTABLISHED BY THEIR HISTORY TO BE
UNBIBLICAL.
When I used to pray in these circles, I would quiet my mind,
concentrate on experiencing God, and be open to Him moving on
me to give me goose bumps. These circles are so loving, so comforting,
so unifying, and seem so innocent, that many Christians have
thoughts similar to what I had when they hold hands to pray with
someone. People do need comfort, but they need to be pointed
to the Father of all comfort, and receive comfort through the
truth of God's word. There is a natural physical comforting that
is appropriate and innocent, but stepping into a ritual, no matter
how innocent it seems, is another matter. Prayer circles are
a ritual, and they should be scarey to us because of the very
possible spiritual dangers connected with them.
One last thing: it's not only prayer circles which are unscriptural.
There is also no biblical precedent for holding hands to pray,
whether or not a circle is formed. I believe we should look into
our own hearts to find answers to some questions when we reflexively
reach for others' hands. For instance, in holding hands, do we
experience a sense of oneness with others and with the spiritual
realm? Do we find an expectation rise in us that someone will
communicate with us when we perform this act? According to God's
word, can we say with assurance that that "someone"
will be God? Looking at the history of the use of prayer circles
and the absence in God's word of these circles and of holding
hands to pray, can we take part in these practices believing
there is no appearance of evil in them? Can we say we have proved
it to be a good thing in the eyes of God? His word says, "Prove
all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance
of evil" (1 Thess 5:21-22.) I honestly don't believe we
can say these things are proven to be good.
