Renunciations For Babylon – Sarah Victor 6Guide To The PrayersBabylon in history is the fountainhead of all false religion in the Post-Flood world. Allpaganism, all idol worship, all mystery religions and secret societies have their roots inthe Babylonian legends having to do with Nimrod, Semiramus, and Tammuz. [1][3].These prayers of repentance and realignment work to remove all these false roots,remove the alignment with the Babylonian system, and to align us with God.The Prayers Are Divided Into SectionsThe first section deals with historical Babylon – it’s founding in rebellion and the might ofthe flesh.The second section deals with the paganism and idolatry that originated in Babylon andspread into every human culture with a different face.The third and longest section is about Babylon in biblical history.We particularly focus on the time that God used Babylon as an instrument of justiceagainst Judah for specific sins that Judah committed – in particular, the sin of idolatry.This is also the subject of the longest book in the Bible – Jeremiah. Therefore, in theseprayers, we have focused some attention on this chapter in the history of His people.God used page after page in Jeremiah to detail the sins that Judah did to cause thebrutal hand of Babylon to come upon both the land and the people. In these pages, Hehas also poured His heart out in great distress and anguish at the suffering when thisjudgment came upon His beloved people and His pain at the destruction of the defiledland.We see very familiar echoes of this suffering in our lives, our families, our nation and theworld around us. The same judgment is still active in our world today – one has only tolook at the wars in the world – young men cut down in their prime, the numeroustragedies of death and destruction that play out in every family.God has the same anguish today when He sees our suffering today, as He did thosecenturies ago when His people suffered the consequences of their iniquity.Amidst his plaint, God also pleads with His people to return to Him, to repent and berestored. We heed His voice in Jeremiah, confessing our sins and those of ourancestors, pleading with Him to restore us, our families, our nation and our land.6Prayer taken from http://www.aslansplace.com139
