IFA South Carolina was able to participate in the annual SC Legislative Prayer Breakfast on March 26, 2025. We had 16 people sitting at our two tables! While some of the State legislative leaders spoke, as did the Governor, Henry McMaster, the impact point was made by the keynote speaker, Keller Kissam, who is the President of Dominion Energy South Carolina. He delivered a ā€œsermonā€ worth hearing, and the meeting ended with an invitation to come to Christ.

From the prayer breakfast, those who could stay walked to the statue of Wade Hampton on the State House grounds for our primary spiritual objective of the day. On his last day in office, Joe Biden was made a Master Mason in Charleston, SC, by the leader of Prince Hall Masonry in SC. Most of us were shocked to learn of this because Prince Hall Masonry had not been on our radar screen. SC has deep Masonic roots in both York and Scottish rites, and the Scottish rites were born in SC. We have prayed many times, canceling their impacts in SC. However, we missed Prince Hall Masonry! As it turns out, that branch of the Masonic has had a very significant impact on the State in the Afro-American community. We planned to read a decree of divorce from Baal at the Wade Hampton statue to cancel the impact of the Masonic in SC. The Lord had a slightly different plan.

On the day of the breakfast we were joined by a wonderful Afro-American sister who frequently works with one of our routine prayer warriors in another prayer network. She works in the State House and decided to join us during prayer time at the Wade Hampton statue. We picked the Wade Hampton statue as the location for prayer because he was a planter, a governor, and a Mason. As we were ready to begin our decrees, she stopped us saying that the Lord had been stirring in her for the previous two weeks regarding her involvement and association with Prince Hall Masonry! She repented, renounced the involvement, and received a deliverance that she recognized brought her internal freedom right there at the statue. The Lord delivered ā€œfirst fruitsā€ even before we read the decrees. After prayer and pronouncing separation from the roots of the Masonic for the State, we shared Commuinon there by the Statue.

Next, we traveled to the monument to Afro-Americans there on the same State House grounds to pronounce blessing over that segment of the SC population. The sister mentioned above gave us some specific guidance in doing that.

Since Wednesday is our routine prayer call, we held the prayer call from the State House grounds. I was able to get into the prayer chapel in the House office building and pray from there while others prayed in the State House assembly room or on the grounds. We know that SC was impacted in the spiritual realm! Sometimes there is no substitute for ā€œboots on the ground.ā€

OMG, I am a born again spirit filled Christian, I know spiritual warfare. I moved to SC from Ohio in Aug 2023 and am having a terrible time here spiritually. I cannot find a spirit filled church. I have been in emotional turmoil and hate living here. I felt something wrong but didn’t know what. I have been fighting for my life ever since I came here. now I know how to do warfare, what is happening.

    Joyce, may you have wisdom and discernment regarding the spiritual warfare coming against you. May you find fellowship with like-minded believers!

Praise God! What a victory! The town in NC where I reside, is very involved in Free Mason worship. Is it true that the enemy tries to rebuild high places after God brings them down through prayer?

    The enemy takes advantage of any opportunity that is available, therefore we must be vigilant to hold territory taken. If there are literal pagan or occult monuments on these “high places”, although we may not have the authority to literally tear them down, we can certainly ask YHVH to do so. Remember Dagon?! Problem is, much of D.C. would have to demolished, not to mention many other places.

Really?! While I am no longer a member Iā€™ve been a Mason, York Rite Mason, Scottish Rite member and Shriner. The basic belief is one Supreme Being period. Based on King Solomon and moral living. No conspiracies no agenda.

What supposedly has Masonry done other than produce patriots such as Ben Franklin, George Washington and many others.

    Yes, the “Supreme Being” is named Jesus and by His Holy Spirit we are able to discern deception and live lives obedient to Him. May He shine His light upon the citizens of His nation.

      Excellent website!! Thanks for sharing.
      I am amazed at how many Christians are blind or ignorant about Freemasonry.
      Years ago, I did a study on the origins of Halloween. To my amazement, it had the same origins of Freemasonry – Isis and Onasis – in beliefs, practices, and worship.
      Idolatry is a sin, an abomination, against Almighty God, our Creator.
      Idolatry says, in bold attitude rebellion, we don’t need or want God, the very God Who created us. How sad!
      We need to repent on our faces before God, renounce it, and sever all ties to Freemasonry and Halloween.

    Many children of Masons have had to pay a stiff price for their family’s idolatry. Still births, unexplained illness, handicaps, etc. My family was no exception. I think that is why the Shriners are so involved with helping handicapped children.

It takes thrilling bravery to stand against the masonic doctrine that involves worship of and obedience to satan.
Thank you Lord for exposing the lie behind this organization.

There is much evidence indicating that masonry has been greatly responsible for the divisions and breaking apart of our Christian churches and denominations of the churches. Many of our Christian worshiping groups have for too long ignored the presence of Lodge members and Masonic activity right in their midst.

Thank God! What a blessing your obedience is in doing the will of God, may He bless you all for desiring SC and this nation to be set free from influence of Masonic evil rituals and their lodges.
