Because You Prayed | How to Pray Someone Out of Sodom | Tim Dilena 

My childhood abusive father became born again 2 weeks before he died. As a child, God burdened my heart to pray for him. I prayed for him for 40 years. As an adult, God gave me the honor to take care of him while he fought terminal cancer. As he fought his physical illness, I also fought for him, spiritually. God healed our relationship, healed my heart, and changed his heart. I will see him some day in Heaven because the Lord answers prayers!

I have been praying for my son since he told me he is gay. Pray for his release out of the sin. Amen ❤️ 🙏

You don’t hear preachers talking about Sodom and Gomorrah anymore. Preach, pastor!!

When the pastor said people need an encounter with God instead of a show, he hit it on the head. This Word and time in Praise and Worship and Prayer has encouraged me. My husband had a dream of a man standing over us while we were sleeping. I asked him to describe how the man looked and he said “I don’t know. His face was so bright I couldn’t see it”. I told him “that was the Lord”. Left him with no words. And I showed him that what he saw was scriptural. Revelations speaks on the description of the Lord’s face (countenance). Still no words. He asked “Did He come to take me?”. I said “No, you’re not ready to stand before God”. He said so why did He come. I told him that Jesus came because He wants your attention.

Is it just me or is this man an incredible teacher?

i pray for my husband and son that God have mercy on them, every day I TRUST IN HIS MERCY

My son has been in bondage since he was about 16 years old. He is 39 now and is more entrenched in his addiction than ever. He has had encounters with demons. I have been wondering if I should just give up. I see no changes and in fact, he is worsening at this point. I am hopeful once again. Thank you for the wonderful reminder that God still hears me and God is still pursuing him.

My daughter needs to be released from Sodom/TikTok. It has taken over her life. It’s influenced her to walk in the ways of the world. Please pray for her and restoration of her marriage and family.

Praise the Lord. Y’all pray for me please, I am a born again Christian and I feel as if I’m stuck in a place like this sodom and I am waiting on the Lord to give the word. I love you and I appreciate all the prayers

Praying for Reabetswe,Zweli, Mpho from alcohol addiction, Reabetswe really battles alcoholism and in huge denial, please help me not to give up praying faithfully.

My son has been in Sadom and Gamorah for 20 years. I know God is the only one that can set him free. Its a demonic Spirit. I know that Jesus came to set the captives free, please pray that Jacob will be set free from the bondage of homosexuality. Ive been praying for years. But have seen nothing. Thanks.

My beautiful daughter Marcella needs to. Be delivered in Jesus name.

So good , even though I haven't seen results I believe my children and grandchildren will be saved , keep praying my husband has come back after being backslidden it's God's timing just keep praying because like the song , even though we don't see that he's working he is , love from Kate down under Australia 🇦🇺

I shall be 84 years old in a week and listening to this song/music. And sometimes, I will dance alone in my study room while listening

Please save all our friends, family, neighbors, acquaintances, enemies, and those we encounter in the media. I lift up all those in the dark corners of the earth, whoever they are. Lord, please save their souls and bodies, and fix their lives. Also protect our leaders, from parents to pastors, to law enforcement and politicians.... Even if we don't like them. If you could ultimately use Nebuchadnezzer, you can use anyone. Please help us all do what we're supposed to do 😇 Thank you, Jesus ❤️‍🩹💝

Please pray for complete healing and deliverance for 15 year old Destiny diagnosed with anxiety and depression taken to the hospital today. Let us pray for our children/ young people worldwide battling since COVID.

Yes so encouraging . I am praying for my daughter waiting upon the Lord . One thing for sure He is a merciful God.

TO MY CHRISTIAN FAMILY, WILL YOU PLEASE PRAY FOR ALLEN, HE'S IN THE HOSPITAL. I THANK YOU., AND BLESS YOU. AMEN.

This hit home for me. A friend of mine is always asking me to pray for him. And I do. But I also tell him to pray for himself. I don't know if he does and now I realize how important my prayers for him are. What a Word.

Pray for the salvation of a close family member of us , that Jesus will step into his life meraculesly so that he will make a decision for HIM , and to get meraculesly , powerfully born again , and to be changed from his ways. Let he will also honour his wife who so dearly love the Lord and want to walk in Unity . GOD CAN DO ALL THINGS!!!

Whooo! Pastor Tim had me when he quoted EM Bounds a Methodist Preacher from the mid 1800’s. That was when Methodists were considered radical. Now, sadly they are only confused. We all know someone who is living in Sodom. I will be forwarding this message soon. Live for Jesus!

Pls pray alongside with me for my son Alex to come back to holiness & godliness.

My daughter ❤️ sent this message to me. PTL Wonderful sermon..I am standing in the gap praying for my Husband, my Son, and a good friend who has terminal cancer 😢. I'm standing in Faith that 🙏🏻 all 3 will give their hearts Amen

I’ve been praying for my son for years to change in many ways. It seems stagnant or worse. I feel so discouraged and run out of patience sometimes. Only God can bring him out of Sodom.

Please pray for my son and family and my daughters and famlies

Praise God! I needed to hear this to not give up on several people I have been praying for . 🙏

Dear friends in Christ, please pray for me and my mother

It's the Spirit of God that motivated people and the church to pray. When we born again, the Spirit inside of us is moving constantly.. To instruct us, to empower us, to speak to us. But if we are partnering with God, we know His heart beats..

Praying for a cousin who was on fire for God, now left the faith and dragged his family with him. Praying for a friend, who left the faith and left his family. May they come out of bondage and into the loving hands of the Father.

Needed this it’s hard when you’re not seeing any fruit or results . Thank you 🙏🏾

August 2016 I was in New York with my daughter and one day, on 5th avenue, 10am on a hot summer morning, God gave me the blessing of reaching to two handsome but waisted man on their 25-30 and speak to them about God’s love and I prayed for one of them and heaven come down. It was as if we were connected by s high source of electricity and I know for sure that God delivered both of them on that day from drugs and alcohol. The call was come back home. God is calling you home. He pulled down the sleeve on his shower and showed a beautiful cross tatted on his shoulder. That impacted me so much that the rest of the day I could not feel my feet touching the ground. The love God put in my heart for those two men I have never felt before. It was His love for them. Praise the LORD. I PRAY I will meet them in heaven at the feet of Jesus.

That was me in the past, I would go to church and then go back to my sin. Into I decided to move to Maryland and go through hell is that I woke up and repented from fornication. I almost die in my sin. Thankful to God for saving me. Amen ❤️ 🙏

Today's sermon spoke to my heart and I really needed to hear this. Nobody can expound Bible verses/ lesson better than Pastor Tim Dilena. He is really a man of prayer and such a amazing Bible teacher and a blessing to all of us. He keeps us attentive throughout the sermon and there is no way I can get tired of hearing him. He never succumbs to the culture of the present times and never speaks any thing apart from the Bible. I wish there was a clone of Pastor Tim Dilena every where around the world. ❤️❤️❤️

The prayer of a righteous man avails much

I prayed many years to get my husband back - (we were living together, still married, but he was absend), so I just prayed to get the husband back I married 20 years ago. God did answer my prayer, but he have done so much more. He brought my husband back to Him. My husband is serving a prison sentence now, but he is a better dad, better husband and a better child of God. During his absence years he developed an addiction - one that I wasn't aware off! He is healed - all through the power of prayer. Noq I'm praying for an early release from prison. Please pray with me. Thank you for this beautiful sermon.

Thank you pastor Tim, I so need to learn how to pray for my husband for salvation. I have been praying for decades, and am getting discouraged. Thank you! I listen to your messages every week and pray for you and for Pastor Carter.

Please please please Pastor Tim, pray for me to be born again, true transformation, hating sin and loving the Lord

Please pray for my granddaughter Amber, For salvation .

Please keep me in youre prayer i need God and a breakthrough in my life

This message gives me so much hope because there are two people that I have been praying for; it's been a few years. I know that saying anything to them would be rejected.

Thank you Jesus! Big up from Jamaica 🇯🇲

Thank you God for Tim Dilena

Listening from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

please pray for the salvation of my son Adrian Break the bondage from the demonic spirit of Islam

Yes he is giving us the meat. No pablum here. This man preaches as if he expects his hearers to one hundred percent get the message then take it out into our daily lives, living day to day moment to moment walking in the clear and blessed lives we were created to live, surrounded, fed, and taught by the Word and the Blood of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Whew!

Amen! 🙌🏼 Our Heavenly Father is faithful. Keep praying 🙏🏼.

Wow, I need to pray more. Keep me in your prayers 😢

Thank you for this powerful message….pray….pray….and then pray some more! Don’t quit! Be a sledgehammer! ✡️✝️🩸🔥

My granddaughter desperately needs rescued from bondage. Father God I ask for Your Warrior angels to release her. To restore her health to better than before. Your protective hand in and on her life. Please return to these beings double fold what they have done to her.

Ezekiel 22:30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.

Yep. Intercessors. Praying for others.

My so is addicted to weed for years even cancer is not drawing him to God am praying for him for 20 years now..

Jesus is the LORD I Love You Jesus I Love You Holy Spirit I Love You Father God is good!

Pastor Tim please pray for me to change me from inside and out, turn me into a righteous person, holy and obedient to God's Words

Amen amen hallelujah thank you God of 100 chance for our life and families 🙌🙌🙌🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️😇😇

This was taught so well!! Thank you. I prayed for so long yesterday morning, out loud. after watching this. I woke up today to major attacks spiritually. It was so troubling, I was mad, it turned to joy as I prayed longer and louder all afternoon. For decades, I was looking for Jesus and fell into confusion, i wanted to believe the counterfeits. Finally, the Truth has been getting through and all of the lies since childhood, and wrong teachings i grew up with, God exposed to me the last few years until I believed Him, it's been emotional. It was obvious I was very oppressed in my mind, body and every area of my life had been affected. Those spirits didn’t want to leave, and my family couldn't see that something is wrong. It was like witchcraft, manipulation, and fake. I hope this makes sense, when you read the part where they thought Lot was joking, it was awesome, the thing about the counterfeits, it is testing us but the people used, they always had a smirk on their face like they claimed all of it was God, because I didnt know what the "real" looked like, so even though it was stories that were shaping reality, and mesmerizing, not the Word, Not the Holy Spirit. They did not study the Bible, speak life, and the conversations were about the world, what to buy, always wanting more, and after falling in the snares and pits, transformed to their thinking, but still wondered if I had refused Jesus, but it was all lies with a tiny bit of Truth. This is what people fall for when the false teachers like the huge Church I grew up in, it was all about prosperity and not a relationship. My dad was an elder. Im almost 57, it was one of the first televangelist, so when I grew up, and at 30, in the middle of a divorce I needed to know Jesus, and have the Love of The Father, He was drawing me. i wasn't seeking New Age or the Occult. I never suspected that it was any of that until recently. Like if it was an encounter with The Spirit of the Lord, I would be changed and telling everyone the good news. These situations were usually after a crises and ironically, they had the remedy LOL, it was subtle and somehow also like everything was hurry, hurry, urgent because I was needing answers, and I did not know to pray first or take any time to consider what was being said, and spot the half truths, so I agreed and fell. Listening to you read those words made me smile because He had just revealed to me another example to give me confirmation, True Wisdom, reminding me of the way I felt when I wondered if that was God? They were following something, their plan, to deceive me and carry me off, like it shouldnt have been convincing, or not sure if I'd take the bait. What you said, the difference is they did not have authority. So God showed me they knew that I needed to give it to them. Even though ive heard that before, and read Gods Word and about His True Prophets, it still hadn't been clear enough for that lie to be broken. That seems crazy but it's true. It was hard enough to accept that I was betrayed, and they knew what they were doing. I wasn't expecting it or looking for it. Im so thankful that after all these years, the True Son of God, The Love of the Father is so Beautiful. He has revealed these things to me, that He is Good and He won't leave me in that condition. I believe Him!! ❤❤❤

This man preaches with passion. God bless 🙌 you

Family salvation come, deliverance from drugs alcohol pride come in Jesus name 🙏Jesus is my Lord Acts 16:31🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Pray for my son in law Jared, he’s bound and confused, and cannot quit alcohol, he as 2 children still no motivation to change, I’m believing for for a miracle,

This was a great Word. This man never disappoints my heart. I'm praying for so many. It's very heartbreaking but although the devil seeks to discourage my patience for seeing things change, I am encouraged by Brothers like Brother Tim, and a few others who lift my Spirit and bring strength back in God's Word. I trust in Jesus who has never failed me. Although I pray and SEE little change, my faith increases knowing that His WAYS ARE NOT MY WAYS NOR HIS THOUGHTS MY THOUGHTS. I serve a God who is CREATOR OF ALL. A God who never sleeps. He holds the world in the palm of His hand!!! If my hope lies with Him, how could I lose? Lead and guide me my Father, my Lord. Let me thoughts align with what your will for me is and cause me to walk in the path that leads to righteousness. I praise and honor you my King. My eternity will be with You.BARUCH HABA BESHEM ADONAI💜💜💜

So I'm sitting on my couch eating breakfast this morning listening, and such chills coming over me had me rab a blanket to put over my shoulders. Thank you Pastor Tim and Times Square Church.

Thank you for continuing to stand with me for my breakthrough. And thank you for not getting annoyed. I long to see what God is doing behind the scenes

praise God is working on all I lov e jesus

Listening from South Africa. Praise God for this truly encouraging message. Thank you and God bless. Father, please answer the prayers of those who are calling out to You, in Jesus Name 🛐 Amen!

Prayer for Samuel, Julian, Alyah, Ana, Emmanuel, for an encounter with God and be set free .

Thank you for this Word! I have family in Sodom!! Praise the Lord.

This TSC channel pops up today on my YT browser and into the second TSC sermon I’ve watched (after Peter Tsukahira whose message also enthrals my attention) - this one here by Ps Tim on praying a person out of Sodom - I feel a fluid power flowing into my soul like a living river. No exaggeration. I’ve been watching preachings from other Christian churches of a range of denominations, RU-vid evangelical channels, and loads of testimonies and prophetic messages. They might effect little nudges on my heart but none arouses a sense of closeness with God like Ps Tim this sermon of yours does. I also want to say that it’s been at least a decade that I’ve heard a contemporary sermon that is tightly biblically contextualised and exhaustive within the context like this sermon. Yes, I find none in contemporary teachings that is centred on the theme and doesn’t wander off or turns into a personal anecdote story-telling time / current affairs commentating time. Bless my Lord Jesus! Bless you Ps Tim and all pastors and preachers and workers of TSC. Watching from Hong Kong.

this is one of the BEST Sermons on Prayer 🙏

Praying for my son

The Lord Jesus Christ has delivered me from drug addiction, homelessness, abusive relationships, evil spirits (yes they're real) , sexual immorality, swearing, lying, stealing, laziness.. and even more. I give all the glory to Him. All praise and worship belong to God. He is real. He is bigger than any problem you face. He will meet you where you are at. Even right now. (Romans 10:13) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Currently I'm experiencing a demonic attack. But I am standing on The Word of God which says I have authority over devils and we are commanded by Christ Jesus to drive/cast them out. So I'm will continue to drive them out in The Name of Jesus Christ. Friends I implore you to do the same. The devil doesn't want us thinking it's real. We have authority over it! All of them. Keep strong in The Lord. Jesus Christ is LORD to the glory of God The Father. I bless every reader of this comment in The Name of Jesus Christ

Please Lord deliver me from these wicked people i dont care how you do it anymore Lord. I just want you. These people are wicked. I love them but hate them.

Please my wonderful brethren I really need your prayers for God intervention in my life and walking out from sin

Hallelujah Pastor Tim! From North Texas, Hallelujah!!

Pray everyday and pray for all of mankind then for specific ones who are an immediately in trouble always!

I have been praying for my son Joshua to recommit his life to the Lord; for my 2 brothers, Anthony and Ezechiel, to commit their lives to the Lord... Please Lord intervene into their lives for the better..please Lord...break the chains Lord..break the chains..please...in Jesus mighty name..

Thank u for this encouraging message Ps Tim!

God is Sovereign it is he alternately who is over anyones life , future , absolutely prayers are so important in our relationship with God but it is always his will that will be done in the end .✝️

Bless you Pastor Tim... God is truly speaking through you..i have been so blessed listening to you.

Amen Pastor! We need God's power!

Please pray for me. I wanted to help someone but they have been wanting what they want at all costs. Pray God deal with them quickly. I am done with these people. I love them but hate them because of their hellacious ways. I want nothing to do with them anymore because of their wickedness despite my caring for them.

I’m just one who bares witness to God, face to face conversations, & is guided by Him.

That's good. I like to spend time with my sister but mainly think of ways I can minister to her.

Please pray for my wife and I. I made mistakes in our marriage and that led her to unfaithfulness, that she is still caught in. And I feel myself slipping in to sin because of this.

Ive backslidden and my fiancee left me. I'm back smoking crack and feel totally lost. I try my best to pray but its like I can't find the words. I feel like theres something stopping me. When i try talk now I stutter. Please pray for me. I heard a voice telling me that Shemyaza is oppressing me. I don't know what to do. Love and blessings from Dublin Ireland 🙏🕊️🔥❤️👑🇮🇪☘️🇺🇸

I love this!! my fervent prayers have weight with God I’m thankful to you Jesus for TSC I bless this church and pastor Tim in Jesus name.

Thanks for the stream Calvary.

Wow I needed to hear this sermon, thanks for sharing it with us.

It’s just stunning to see the work of the Holy Spirit reaching souls for Jesus in Times Square Church. I could see certain faces that just looked broken and even tearful as the call was being made before the prayer, and then to see those same people raise their hands to be born again was so wonderful. God is amazing, we thank You Jesus.

thank you pastor tim
