As we draw closer to SatanCon, CBN is sharing IFA’s strategy for the demonic event. Let’s pray that this leads even more Christians to pray for a great harvest!

From CBN News. The Satanic Temple (TST) has announced its second convention to be held in Boston, Massachusetts this spring is sold out, according to a post on its website.

Join others crying out to the Lord day and night.

 

The convention known as “SatanCon 2023” will be held on April 28-30 at the Boston Marriott Copley Place. It is being promoted as “a weekend of blasphemy and remembrance in Boston” and will also celebrate TST’s 10-year anniversary.

The group also claims the convention will be the “largest Satanic gathering in history.”

As CBN News reported in January, the theme of the convention is “Hexennacht in Boston” or “Witches Night,” an ancient German holiday that occurs annually on April 30. The SatanCon event includes a “Satanic Ball” on the opening night, April 28,

Lucien Greaves, the Satanic Temple’s co-founder, and spokesperson is set to deliver the keynote address of the conference along with co-founder Malcolm Jarr on Saturday morning.

Other scheduled sessions include “Satanic Panic in Brazil,” “Hellbillies: Visible Satanism in Rural America,” “Deconstructing Your Religious Upbringing,” “Reclaiming the Trans Body: A/theistic Strategies for Self-Determination and Empowerment,” and “Sins of the Flesh: Satanism and Self-Pleasure.” …

Christian Ministry Responds to TST Announcement

A Christian ministry called Intercessors for America (IFA) responded to the announcement of the Satanic group’s second convention, saying, “Our prayers will make a difference yet again. While TST plans and promotes, we will pray and fast that these efforts will actually backfire and instead embolden and empower the Church. They promise a weekend of ‘blasphemy and remembrance in Boston.’ Let’s pray for a weekend of holiness and seeking God.”

The IFA also said TST is an adversary to the Christian faith.

“This is no neutral, ‘intellectual,’ quirky advocacy group. It is an adversary to the Christian faith and its free exercise in public spaces, to the protection of life, and to the advancement of Bible teaching in the public schools,” the IFA said. “These rituals, practices, declarations, and beliefs are the gateway to allowing satanic footholds in people’s lives. Tarot cards, voodoo dolls, hexes, and spells seem harmless to many, but we know that there is real satanic power behind those activities, and this power will ensnare anyone who participates in such things.” …

TST Claims It Advocates for Secularism, Has ‘Abortion Ritual’

Founded in 2013, TST says it doesn’t believe in Satan but describes itself as a “non-theistic religious organization” that advocates for secularism. …

However, TST claims it has its own “abortion ritual.” The group describes its Satanic abortion ritual as a “spiritual experience designed to instill confidence and self-worth in accordance to TST’s religious beliefs.” …

Promoting Satan as an ‘Imaginary Friend’ to Children

The group also made headlines over the few years as it has worked to install its “After School Satan Club” in several elementary schools across the country, drawing the anger of many parents. …

As CBN News has reported, a catchy, semi-animated promotional video from the group included a song encouraging young children to embrace Satan as an imaginary friend. …

2 Kings 19

Isaiah said to them, “Tell your master, ‘This is what the LORD says: Do not be afraid of what you have heard—those words with which the underlings of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

Listen! When he hears a certain report, I will make him want to return to his own country, and there I will have him cut down with the sword.’”

20 Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent a message to Hezekiah: “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I have heard your prayer concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria. 21 This is the word that the Lord has spoken against him:
“‘Virgin Daughter Zion
    despises you and mocks you.
Daughter Jerusalem
    tosses her head as you flee.
22 
Who is it you have ridiculed and blasphemed?
    Against whom have you raised your voice
and lifted your eyes in pride?
    Against the Holy One of Israel!
23 
By your messengers
    you have ridiculed the Lord.
And you have said,
    “With my many chariots
I have ascended the heights of the mountains,
    the utmost heights of Lebanon.
I have cut down its tallest cedars,
    the choicest of its junipers.
I have reached its remotest parts,
    the finest of its forests.
24 
I have dug wells in foreign lands
    and drunk the water there.
With the soles of my feet
    I have dried up all the streams of Egypt.”
25 
“‘Have you not heard?
    Long ago I ordained it.
In days of old I planned it;
    now I have brought it to pass,
that you have turned fortified cities
    into piles of stone.
26 
Their people, drained of power,
    are dismayed and put to shame.
They are like plants in the field,
    like tender green shoots,
like grass sprouting on the roof,
    scorched before it grows up.
27 
“‘But I know where you are
    and when you come and go
    and how you rage against me.
28 
Because you rage against me
    and because your insolence has reached my ears,
I will put my hook in your nose
    and my bit in your mouth,
and I will make you return
    by the way you came.’
29 “This will be the sign for you, Hezekiah:
“This year you will eat what grows by itself,
    and the second year what springs from that.
But in the third year sow and reap,
    plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
30 
Once more a remnant of the kingdom of Judah
    will take root below and bear fruit above.
31 
For out of Jerusalem will come a remnant,
    and out of Mount Zion a band of survivors.
“The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this.
32 “Therefore this is what the Lord says concerning the king of Assyria:
“‘He will not enter this city
    or shoot an arrow here.
He will not come before it with shield
    or build a siege ramp against it.
33 
By the way that he came he will return;
    he will not enter this city,
declares the Lord.
34 
I will defend this city and save it,
    for my sake and for the sake of David my servant.’”
35 That night the angel of the Lord went out and put to death a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the Assyrian camp.

Is there a group of Prayer Warriors that will be present representing God and His people over this event? I believe our physical presence filled with the Holy Spirit is powerful together!
Greater is He Who is in me than He who is in the world. We are called to expose evil. Praying people give their lives to Jesus through this!
We are all in! Let us know when and where to meet the group of prayer warriors!

I had a lenghty stay at the Marriot Copley Square location in February, prayed while there and have continued to pray for revival and the salvation of attenders. I am additionally concerned for innocent hotel guests who may share the premises with this gathering, employees that will be required to staff and serve this event, and the profane spiritual consequence on the hotel itself.

Heavenly Father, thank You that You are the answer for pulling down every stronghold. You tell us to put on the whole armor of God, that we may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil (Eph 6:11). We are to pray at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplications. We are to make supplication for all the saints, that utterance may be given to each in opening our mouths boldly to proclaim the mystery of the Gospel (Eph 6:18-19). Father please send the laborers to Boston in advance of this event. Press us to pray in the Spirit as often as is needed. Let us be mindful to request utterance of the saints for the bold proclamation of the Gospel. Soften the hearts of the lost who have submitted to the lies of the devil. Just as You hovered over the waters of the deep, hover over this city and do a mighty work in the people. We believe Your teaching and desire to employ it, lead us and prepare our hearts as well. In Jesus’ all powerful name. Amen.

We need to organize a presence in Boston in opposition to this unholy gathering. I live in Boston and feel that we cannot simply pray online. We need to be a witness to the entire world of the Glory and Grace of God. Not being present implies acceptance or tolerance.. James 4:7

Father, we speak your victory over this event. Even now, we plead the blood of Christ over Boston that revival may sweep over the city. And we plead the blood of Christ over the building the event will be held in that the victory satan thinks he will have will in reality become the victory of Christ. We ask for many salvations in Boston and in this satan convention.

vive: from Latin vivus alive
revive: (1) to restore to consciousness or life; (2) to restore from a depressed, inactive, or unused state : bring back (3) to renew in the mind or memory

Dear Heavenly Father, You are The Only God, NOTHING is beyond Your control. I pray on April 28th, YOU show up in a grand way. This prayer has been put on my heart and as I pray it again, I do so encouraged. You need NO guidance from me but I pray You will demonstrate Your Glory in that place. I pray You will revive the dead in that place. I pray satancon is Your Victory and ask this in the Name of Jesus Christ, The Messiah. Amen

Father God, I pray that your people who are called by your name to intercede and ask that revival will hover in the area, in Boston, where that satancon is being planned. May you glory reign and many souls come to the knowledge of Jesus, IJN.

Father God, we cry out to You to intervene in power and glory! Send mercy and truth to all who want to go or support this gathering. Glorify Your Son! Save, deliver, heal, and deciple all who hear and answer Your call. Even now hover over all preparations for this event. We declare Your VICTORY in Jesus mighty name. Amen

As this group sets out nets to capture children, I declare and decree that they will fall into their own nets for self-destruction according to the Haman principle in the Bible and according to what happened with David and goliath. No weapon formed against American is or will prosper. The false prophets at mount Carmel had a taste of the fire of God and I see this as a parallel.

Where sin abounds, grace doth much more abound. (Romans 5:20) Dear Father, we pray that this satancon will be a place for Christian witnesses to speak to those who have been deceived and fooled by the Enemy, and that Jesus will be glorified as people turn away from darkness and embrace Jesus as their Savior! May the name of Jesus be lifted up, and draw people to Him! Amen!

Father, we still fail for lack of both knowledge and understanding of the actual, being-the-scenes realities of the universe. Please forgive us for our foolish and naive arrogance.
Release in us hearts seeking Your smile, seeking Your wisdom and reign visible among us.

Let’s not give them the publicity. The event should be referred to as the ‘DeceiverCon.’

Praise the Lord the word is getting out and more are being called to pray!

Praying afresh for Salvation to revive and awaken those who seem hopelessly lost, even as Jesus Revolution reminds us how people thought the hippies were lost but fueled one of the greatest movements of evangelism our nation has ever known!
