In his classic sermon “Laying the Ax to the Root,” Derek Prince exposes how seemingly harmless activities, like fortune-telling or even casual curiosity about the occult, can open dangerous spiritual doors. His message isn’t just about warning people; it’s about showing them the path to freedom through Christ.
Prince shares a powerful story of a woman who had no idea that a fortune-teller’s words had shaped her destiny. Only when she renounced this hidden spiritual bondage did she experience true deliverance—and even a miraculous turnaround in her life.
This sermon pulls back the curtain on the unseen battle happening in our world today. If you’ve ever wondered how the occult subtly creeps into everyday life, or why so many people struggle with unseen burdens, this is a message you can’t afford to miss. Watch this segment of “Laying the Ax to the Root” and discover the truth that sets people free.
