Healing and Deliverance

FORMER WITCH DELIVERED

A woman in Melbourne, and former witch complained with oozing sores on her feet was healed. She manifested strong reactions and was under a powerful demonic control. She fell on the floor and struggled to try to crawl out of the church growling like a beast. I command the evil spirit to be still and leave. After loads of deliverance, I noticed oozing sores all over her ankles and legs. I asked the Lord to deliver her from the Spirit of Aides. The festering sores instantly disappeared, God is faithful.

About six months later, I returned to the area. A beautiful smiling woman was sitting on the front row. She came up when I finished preaching. “Do you remember me?” I answered. “No.”

“I am Shelly, remember, I was a former witch with the oozing sores on my feet?

“Of course I remember you, but you don’t look like the same person.”

“Well, that’s because I’m Born Again.” She bent over and took her shoes off and said, “See, the sores did not come back.” Her feet were clear with a scar. She continued to testify. “My pastor has a house for wayward girls. I was staying at the house when the Lord delivered me. Afterward, he hired me to manage the house. God has been doing many miracles.” She brought a dozen girls to the meeting.

I could continue and give you hundreds of testimonies about the healing power of our Lord Jesus Christ. I have witnessed Him raise the dead many times. One particular time, a woman jumped out of her pew and rushed toward the back door. I ran after her. She dropped on the floor by the door. She began to shake uncontrollably and had an Epileptic. We all gathered around and began to pray. Suddenly, her eyes set with an eternal stare. She took one last breath and died. I began to command the spirit of death to lose her while the other people prayed. There was a nurse attending the meeting. She took out a mirror and put it to her mouth and nose. There was absolutely no trace of life. We continued to pray and after about forty minutes, she opened her eyes and began to breathe again. The power of God is still in force today. We just have to believe it and use it. Amen.

SATAN HAD BOUND HER

Jesus Christ, it is prophesied of His great ministry that it would "loose the bands; undo heavy burdens and break every yoke.”

The Apostle Mark summarizes the healing and Deliverances side by side: “They brought to him all the sick and the demon possessed. And he healed many who were sick with various diseases and drove out many demons, and he did not permit the demons to speak, for they knew him,” (Mk. 1: 32-34).

Sickness and demon possession are here closely associated, yet kept distinct. The same is true of (Mk. 3: 10-12). Jesus calls sickness BONDAGE! "Ought not this woman' whom Satan Hath bound be loosed from this BOND?”  (Lk. 13:16), "Woman thou art loosed from thine infirmity,” In (Lk: 1312). He said that “SATAN had BOUND her!”

God does not bind people. He frees them. Jesus never said that this condition existed in this woman to keep her humble, or that it was a mysterious way God had of working out His will in her life. JESUS SAID SATAN HAD BOUND HER. Such bondage could never be the will of God for man now because it is recorded that Jesus' ministry was designed to "set at LIBERTY THEM THAT ARE BRUISED," (Lk. 4:18).

So we see that Jesus called sickness BONDAGE, And every BOUND PERSON is commanded to be loosed to be set free, Jesus came as "...  the way the TRUTH AND THE  LIFE,' and he said, Ye shall know the TRUTH, AND  THE TRUTH SHALL  MAKE YOU FREE,"  (Jn. 8:32). (Isa. 58:6).

For thus saith the Lord, Thy bruise is incurable, and thy wound is grievous. 13 There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines. 14 All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of thine iniquity; because thy sins were increased, (Jer. 30: 12-14).

PETER:

Lame man cured.

2 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms. 4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us. 5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them. 6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. 7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. 8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God. 9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God: 10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him. 11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering. 12 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk? And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength,” (Acts 3:7).

ANANIAS

Death of Ananias. He lied to the Holy Spirit.

And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things,” (Acts 5:5).

SAPPHIRA

Death of Sapphira. She joined her husband’s lie to the Holy Spirit.

Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband,” (Acts 5:10).

The sick healed.

“Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them. There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one,” (Acts 5:15-16).

AENEAS

Aeneas made whole.

“And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately,” (Acts 9:34).

DORCAS

Dorcas restored to life.

“But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up,” (Acts 9:40).

STEPHEN:

Great miracles.

“And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people,” (Acts 6:8).

PHILIP:

Various miracles.

“And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed,” (Acts 8: 6-7).

“Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done,” (Acts 8:13).

PAUL:

Elymas smitten with blindness.

“And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand,” (Acts 8:13).

Lame man cured.

“ Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked,” (Acts 14:10).

An unclean spirit cast out.

“And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour,” (Acts 16:18).

Special miracles.

“And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them,” (Acts 19:11-12).

EUTYCHUS

Eutychus restored to life.

“And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him. When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed. And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted,” (Acts 20:10-12).

Viper's bite made harmless.

“And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm,” (Acts 28:5).

FATHER OF PUBLIUS HEALED

Father of Publius healed

“And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him,” (Acts 28:8).

PAUL AND BARNABAS:

Various miracles.

“Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands,” (Acts 14:3).

IDOLATRY IS AS SIN OF WITCHCRAFT

“And Elisha said unto the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? Get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Nay: for the Lord hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab. (II Kin. 3:12).

Jehoram's humility in seeking II Kin. 3:12 instead of summoning Elisha, does not save him from rebuke. His reformation II Kin. 3:2 had been but a half reformation - a compromise with idolatry.

Nay: for the Lord hath called ... - The force of this reply seems to be - "Nay, reproach me not, since I am in a sore strait - and not only I, but these two other kings also. The Lord - Yahweh - is about to deliver us into the hand of Moab. If thou canst not, or wilt not help, at least do not reproach." [1]

◄ II Kin. 3 ►

Gill's Exposition

“Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years, (II Kin. 3:1).

Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah,.... So that the two years of the reign of his brother Ahaziah were not complete, only part of the seventeenth and part of the eighteenth of Jehoshaphat, since he began to reign in his seventeenth year, at the beginning of that, and died towards the close of the eighteenth, when Jehoram succeeded him, (see II Kin. 22:51), and reigned twelve years. [2]

II Kin. 3:2

“And he wrought evil in the sight of the LORD; but not like his father, and like his mother: for he put away the image of Baal that his father had made,” (II Kin. 3:2).

“And he (Jehoram) wrought evil in the sight of the Lord,.... Was guilty of idolatry: but not like his father, and like his mother; his father Ahab, and his mother Jezebel: for he put away the image of Baal that his father had made; he did not destroy it, only removed it from the temple of Baal where it was set, that it might not be worshipped, at least publicly, ( see II Kin. 16:31) this he did, either moved to it by his own conscience, observing the sudden deaths of his father and brother, which he might suppose was for their idolatry; or in order to obtain success in his war with Moab he was entering into; or being instigated by Jehoshaphat to do it, or otherwise he might refuse to join him,” (II Kin.3: 2). [3]

II Kin. 3:3

Nevertheless he cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.

Nevertheless he cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin,.... He closely adhered to the worship of the calves set up by him: he departed not therefrom: that being a piece of state policy, to keep up the division of the two kingdoms. [4]

And he wrought evil in the sight of the Lord,.... Was guilty of idolatry: [5] but not like his father, and like his mother; his father Ahab, and his mother Jezebel:   for he put away the image of Baal that his father had made; he did not destroy it, only removed it from the temple of Baal where it was set, that it might not be worshipped, at least publicly, see (I Kin. 16:31) this he did, either moved to it by his own conscience, observing the sudden deaths of his father and brother, which he might suppose was for their idolatry; or in order to obtain success in his war with Moab he was entering into; or being instigated by Jehoshaphat to do it, or otherwise he might refuse to join him. [6]

“And Elisha said, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee. 15 But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the Lord came upon him. 16 And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches. 17 For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts. 18 And this is but a light thing in the sight of the Lord: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand.19 And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones,” (II Kin. 3:14-19). (II Kin. 3;3).

II Kin. 3:19

And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones. And ye shall smite every fenced city and every choice city,.... That is, the inhabitants of them with the sword, and demolish them also, II Kin. 3:25, and shall fell every good tree; which seems contrary to the law in Deuteronomy 20:19, but that may respect trees belonging to a city when besieged only, or only to Canaanitish cities; or the law was now dispensed with, and that for this time only, to make the punishment of Moab the greater, for their rebellion and other sins: and stop all wells of water; which must be very distressing to those that survived the calamity of the sword:

and mar every good piece of land with stones; as that it could not be ploughed and sowed, nor anything spring up and grow upon it. [7]

II Kin. 3:20

And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.

And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered,.... At Jerusalem; which always went along with the daily burnt offering of the lamb, which might not indeed be offered before break of day, yet quickly after; for no sacrifice could be offered before that; see Gill on Exod. 29:39,

that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom; not from the heavens, but it may be out of some rock, rolling along on the earth from the hills and mountains, down into the valleys, where the armies were:

and the country was filled with water; all round about them. Who has not heard of the "thundering" legion, as it was called by the Emperor M. Aurelius, who, when the army under him was about to engage with the Germans and Sarmatians, and sadly distressed with thirst, fell down on their knees and prayed, upon which a large shower of rain came down to the refreshment of the army, and thunder bolts, which annoyed and put the enemy to flight (i)? at the battle of the Romans with Jugurtha, a sudden and unexpected shower of rain fell, to the refreshment of the Romans, in intolerable thirst (k).

II Kin. 3:21

And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, they gathered all that were able to put on armour, and upward, and stood in the border.

And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them,.... The kings of Israel, Judah, and Edom:

they gathered all that were able to put on armour, and upward; that were of an age capable of that, and all who were more grown; or "girt on a girdle" (l), a military one, with which the sword was girt, who were at age to wear and knew how to wield a sword: and stood in the border; of their land, between Edom and them, to defend themselves and their country against these invaders.

II Kin. 3:22

And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood:

And they rose up early in the morning,.... To watch the motions of their enemies, and be upon their guard against them:

and the sun shone upon the water; with which the valley was filled:

and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood; so it appeared through the rays of the sun reflected on it.

II Kin. 3:23

And they said, This is blood: the kings are surely slain, and they have smitten one another: now therefore, Moab, to the spoil.

And they said, this is blood,.... They were very confident of it, having no notion of water, there having been no rain for some time; and perhaps it was not usual to see water at any time in this place:

the kings are surely slain; they and their forces:

and they have smitten one another; having quarrelled either about their religion, or about want of water, and the distress they were come into through it, laying the blame of their coming out to war, or of their coming that way, on one another; and the Moabites might rather think something of this kind had happened, from what had lately been done among themselves, and their allies, 2 Chron20:23.

now therefore, Moab, to the spoil; having no occasion to fight, or prepare for it; all they had to do was to march directly to the enemy's camp, and plunder it.

II Kin. 3:24

And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them: but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country.

And when they came to the camp of Israel,.... Not in an orderly regular manner, in rank and file, as an army should march, but in a confused manner, everyone striving who should get thither first, and have the largest share of the booty:

the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them; being prepared for them, they fell upon them sword in hand, and soon obliged them to flee:

but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country; they pursued them closely, and slew them as they fled, and followed them not only to their borders, but into their own country: though Schultens (m), from the use of the word in the Arabic language, renders the passage, "and they blunted their swords in it (in that slaughter), even by smiting the Moabites".

II Kin. 3:25

And they beat down the cities, and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the wells of water, and felled all the good trees: only in Kirharaseth left they the stones thereof; howbeit the slingers went about it, and smote it.

And they beat down the cities,.... Demolished the walls of them, and houses in them, wherever they came:

and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone, and filled it; which they had taken out of the walls and houses they pulled down; or which they picked up in the highway, as they passed along, being a stony country; or which being laid in heaps, gathered out of the fields, they took and scattered them all over them:

and they stopped all the wells of water; with stones and dirt:

and felled all the good trees; fruit bearing ones; See Gill on II Kin. 3:19,

only in Kirharaseth left they the stones thereof; not able to demolish it, it being a strong fortified city, the principal of the kingdom, and into which the king of Moab had thrown himself, and the remains of his forces; of which see Isa. 16:7,

howbeit, the slingers went about it, and smote it; smote the soldiers that appeared upon the walls of it; though Kimchi, and other Jewish writers, understand it of engineers, who cast out large stones from a sort of machines then in use, to batter down and break through the walls of cities.

II Kin. 3:26

And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to break through even unto the king of Edom: but they could not.

And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him,.... The siege was so close, the slingers or engineers did so much execution, that he saw the city would soon be taken, and he be obliged to deliver it up:

he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords; men expert in war, bold and daring:

to break through even unto the king of Edom; through his quarters, and so escape, he lying nearest to the city, and perhaps the weakest body of men with him; or he might think he was not so hearty in the cause of the kings, and would make but a feeble resistance, and let him pass:

but they could not; break through they met with a greater opposition than was expected perhaps the Edomites remembered how they had lately used them, which made them fight more desperately against them, see II Chron 20:23.

II Kin. 3:27

Then he took his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall. And there was great indignation against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.

Then he took his eldest son, that should have reigned in his stead,.... Not the eldest son of the king of Edom, whom the king of Moab had in his hands before, which made the king of Edom the more willing to join in this expedition for the recovery of his son, as Joseph Kimchi thinks; or whom he took now in his sally out upon him, as Moses Kimchi and Ben Gersom, proceeding upon a mistaken sense of (Amos 2:1) for the king of Edom could have no son that had a right, or was designed to succeed him, since he was but a deputy king himself; and besides, the sacrificing of him was not the way to cause the kings to raise the siege, but rather to provoke them to press it the more closely: it was the king of Moab that took his son and heir to the crown, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall; that it might be seen by the camp of Israel, and move their compassion; or rather this was done as a religious action, to appease the deity by an human sacrifice so dear and precious, to give success, and cause the enemy to break up the siege; and was either offered to the true God, the God of Israel, in imitation of Abraham, as some Jewish writers fancy (n), or to his idol Chemosh, the sun; and Jarchi observes, out of an exposition of theirs, that "vau" is wanting in the word for wall, and so may be interpreted of the sun, towards which this burnt offering was offered; and it is observed, from various Heathen authors, that it was usual with the Heathens, when in calamity and distress, to offer up to their gods what was most dear and valuable to them; and particularly the Phoenicians (o), and from them the Carthaginians had this custom, who at one time offered up two hundred sons of their nobility, to appease their gods (p): and there was great indignation against Israel; not of the king of Edom against them, for not rescuing his son, or because they were the means of this disaster which befell him; but of the king of Moab, who was quite desperate, and determined to hold out the siege to the utmost extremity: and they departed, and returned to their own land; the three kings, the one to Edom, the other to Israel, and the third to Judah; when they saw the Moabites would sell their lives so dear, and hold out to the last man, they thought fit to break up the siege; and perhaps were greatly affected with the barbarous shocking sight they had seen, and might fear, should they stay, something else of the like kind would be done. [8]

THE GREAT COMMISSION

Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. “For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church. I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification,” (I Cor. 14:1-5).

“If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord. But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant. Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues. Let all things be done decently and in order,” (I Cor. 14:37-40).

Salvation is more than repentance; more than making a decision for Christ; it is a changed life, a New Creature in Christ and a life of holiness.

Chapter Two

Importance of the Deliverance

JESUS CHRIST

Deliverance is not about demons, it’s about Jesus ‘superior power to release the enslaved captives of Satan.

HEALING AND DELIVERANCE - TRINIDAD

I was ministering in Trinidad many years ago, I had finished praying for three hours for the people. The Holy Spirit drew my eyes to this a strange looking woman sitting on the front pew. I said to her, “What about you; do you want Jesus to do something for you?”

She replied, “I don’t know why but I get scared every time I hear the name of Jesus.”

“Oh, I know why you get scared, come up and let me pray for you.”

She got up and walked timidly up to the front of the church and stood before me. She was trembling. The Holy Spirit gave me a ‘Word of Knowledge’, ‘Obeda man’. I commanded that spirit to leave and she suddenly coughed and threw up!

Her face was lop-sided off-center. It appeared as if someone had punched her in the jaw to one side twisting and disfiguring her face. Her eyes looked like dark dead pools staring straight ahead and fixed. I cupped her cheeks with my hands. Suddenly, I felt as though supernatural hands moving mine. It felt as through her face became putty in my hands. Jesus moved her face into line, straightening her bones and shifting them back into place. It was amazing. Suddenly she became very excited and began to run around the church shouting, “I can see, I can see!” Jesus had done a face lift and at the same opening her blind eyes!

While she was running and screaming to the top of her lungs, “I can see, I can see;” a young boy came up and said “that’s my Auntie. I live upstairs in her house. Every night, I hear her growling like a beast. On Sunday, she comes to church but during the week, she goes to the Obeda man, the voodoo man to try to get healed.”

“Well son, tell your Auntie never to go to the Obeda man again, Jesus healed her today!”

DEVICES OF SATAN AND SPIRITUAL WARFARE

Christians have direct access to the power of God. Sadly, much of the power today is squandered on so-called clownish style ministers standing as circus entertainers striving to get laughter from the congregation instead seeking their souls for Jesus. Jesus fully intended to leave a militant church so that His people could evangelize the world for souls.

“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: 10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. 11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; 12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation,” (I Pet. 2: 9).

As the people of God, the mission of the church is to proclaim or announce to the world called believers out of the darkness of sin into light of His love and life. This is the good news the unsaved needs to know. Through the grace of God they too can pass from the darkness of sin into the light

“For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,” (Heb. 2:11).

“Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate,” (Heb. 13:12).

Hello, if you look around, you will see that Satan is here. He’s in the government. He’s in the schools, colleges, businesses, churches, and homes. He’s everywhere. He has not gone away! Unfortunately, it is the Christian Churches that are sleeping while he destroys everything, individuals, families, schools, university, schools, church and our governments, just look and see. His goal is to take every generation into his kingdom.

Recently, the author attended a meeting of seminaries trained missionaries. They were already going to the evangelistic fields. When I saw them through the eyes of the Spirit of God in the spiritual realms, they appeared as people that had just been released from consecration camps. Many of them had sicknesses unto death! I asked the Lord, what is meaning of this that I can see? He revealed to me that these fine Christians had not been properly spiritually trained for battle and because of their spiritual ignorance, the enemy had the advantage! It should be pointed out, that the knowledge of deliverance and spiritual warfare is not being taught in most seminaries in America. However, our evangelist and missionaries are being sent out on the mission fields to engage in a supernatural war with witches, wizards and voodooists that they are ill prepared to meet!

Satan’s agents are human shells filled with demons that have agendas that he uses to rob, kill and destroy God’s creation. Witches and wizards believe they are in charge of these paranormal beings. However, the demons actually have power over humans Demons hate humans and only associate with them to use them for Satan’s plan to rule the world. Witches and wizards’ believe because they do satanic rituals that they are in command of the forces of evil. However, the demons are actually manipulating the witch or wizards’ mind body and spirit because they obediently submit to the demons by doing these required sacrifices. Demons give the illusion that the human is in charge of the paranormal power. They scalp their minds and steal their souls; there are no freedoms in the person’s life; they become enslaved servants or puppets to the spirit beings. These agents of Satan fully understand their “faith” and military mission and sent to spiritually and physically destroy the religious beliefs of these poorly trained missionaries. Witches and wizards also know how to destroy bodies though voodoo practices. Christians in America are simply told that “Christians cannot have devils,” and that’s all these Christians know! They do not understand the principles of spiritual self-defense. The Devil is laughing at the ignorance as he sweeps over and captures both Christian workers and God’s people!

The Bible says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children,” (Hos. 4-6).

SATAN IS DEFEATED WHEN WE SPEAK JESUS’ NAME

We defeat Satan the same way Jesus did; we speak to the spiritual problem using His Word, his name and His delegated authority. Jesus used the Word of God when He needed the power of God and we use the Word of God when we need the power of God. Gates of hell….

Many Christian ministers are ignorant of the reality spiritual warfare!

They have not been taught essential tactics concerning the subject in the seminaries and most of them have never made an effort to learn it on their own. The emphasis is filling their churches with vast numbers of “sinners saved by grace who have never been saved,” while the enemy is savaging the sheep left and right. A general would never dream of sending his troops into battle without first giving them minimum of training concerning the warfare strategy of their opponents. One of the most important maneuvers is how to recognize and neutralize the enemy! Yet, many Christians are being sent out to fight the original "unconventional war" without a real clue as to the stated aims and strategies of Satan and his hosts.  I am constantly confronted by an attitude of "ignore him and maybe he will go away!"

“For no other ‘foundation’ can no man lay than is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” Then Jesus becomes the head of the church and connected to His people. The Apostle Peter addresses the church as consisting of people to a living mystical organism in (I Pet. 2:5), “Ye also as ‘lively stones,’ are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.” “In whom all the building fitly ‘framed’ together groweth unto a holy temple.”

NAME OF JESUS

"In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, and my spirit with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus," (I Cor. 5: 4, 5).

[In the name of our Lord Jesus] Who is the head of the church; and under whose authority every act is to be performed?

“The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner,” (Psa. 118:22).

“Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes NAME OF JESUS, (Matt. 21:42).

"In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, and my spirit with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus," (I Cor. 5: 4, 5).

“But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you; and killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses. And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all,” (Acts 3:14-18).

“If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.  Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it,” (Acts 4:9-14).

“And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:  Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.  And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.  And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.  But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here,” (Acts 16:23-26).

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you,”(Jn.15: 7-15).

THE HOLY GHOST

“That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost,” (Rom. 15:16).

“And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God,” (I Cor. 6:11).

Chapter Three

Without Repentance

THE DELIVERANCE MINISTRY

Several leaders were reported to this author as being seen in their pulpits on Sunday’s and the bar on Saturday’s. I believe that demons can take on the form of people. If the person is unaware of Satan’s tactic, he or she may be deceived by the supernatural counterfeit. If a person hears slander or gossip they will feel disgust for the Christian leader.  Horrified, they may even tell others about the leader, and spread the misleading and distorted information. In doing so, they will be helping the enemy's plans.

Every Christian should take authority over this evil spirit according to (Matt. 18:18) and bind and forbid this activity. “Verily I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

The late Derek Prince was certainly a sound bible teacher and deliverance minister; he was a pioneer in casting out demons. However, God has to train and use new ministers and we too have to learn by experience and Bible study. Nevertheless, I have found that if we follow the deliverance ministry of Jesus in the Bible, we will have a sure foundation to minister.

"But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For it he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom, we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him," (II Cor. 11: 3-4).

The deliverance ministry is not some esoteric body of knowledge that can only be known by a few people. It consist simply to being a Christian Believer who knows the power and authority that one receives from Jesus and His word together with the anointing of the Holy Spirit Who gives the Believer the gift of discerning spirits to cast out demons.

“But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. “For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will,” (I Cor. 12:7-11).

The deliverance ministry is the most difficult ministry because it is not understood, especially in America. It is as controversial today as it was when Jesus was alive. Religious people of His time charged that, “He cast out devils by Beelzebub,” (Lk. 11:15).

Jesus had compassion for the demon-possessed, oppressed, peoples above peer pressure. It is terrible to see someone under the control and power of demons. It is a demanding ministry, physically and mentally. A deliverance minister is paying a price and few people could understand. Don’t expect the deliverance minister to drop everything to come to your need. You must drop everything to come to the minister if you want to be free. Listen and do what the minister’s tells you, else don’t expect to be set free. Also, make plans to stay close to the deliverance minister until you have spiritual understanding concerning how to stay free. This comes with sound teaching from the minister and your submission to God.

Deliverance is having the power to set the captives free. It is never done ritualistically; it must be done by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Deliverance works with love, the compassion of Jesus Christ Himself operating through the deliverance minister then the love of the deliverance minister to the one who is possessed. We have the advantage of having learned the repugnance with which demons regard genuine love and compassion to a bound and helpless individual. True Christian love is a powerful spiritual weapon in warfare with Satan. A person filled with the Holy Spirit who allows the love of Jesus to flow through them can cause the demons to be in torment by embracing the bound individual and letting that holy love flow to them. Evil spirits react with hatred, rage revulsion, often screaming and sobbing to be left alone. Remember, we do not ask God to resist the demons, WE DO!

Jesus Christ has given us, TRUE CHRISTIANS, the authority to resist and defeat them in His name! The words we use will vary according to the circumstance.  There is not a set formula. But it is important to use the Word of God . . .  There is faith and power in the Word of God.

"Submit therefore yourselves to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you," (Jam. 4:7).

Claim the protection of the blood of Jesus after a battle with demons as well as during the actual conflict.

All deliverance ministers should learn to live a fasted life. The Bible says that fasting breaks the yoke of the enemy, (Isa. 58:6). Drink plenty of water!

CONDITIONS FOR DELIVERANCE

There are conditions for a successful deliverance from demons. Absolute honesty; humility; willingness to turn from and confess all known sin; renunciation of all contact with evil spirits; the forgiving of all other persons; and complete surrender of every area of the life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

The individual in need of deliverance can follow a systematic method of liberation by the following:

Verbal confession of faith in Jesus Christ and complete surrender to the Lordship of Christ in every area of the life; surrender must happen if the deliverance is to be permanent.

Forgiveness of all persons who have wronged you.

Verbal confession of the sins of word, mind, body or occult involvement which gave Satan legal access of your life.

Willingness to turn from all sin and contact with evil spirits.

SIN

Is of the devil

He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. “For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil,” (I Jn. 3:8).

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it,” (Jn. 8:44)

Rebellion against God.

“Remember, and forget not, how thou provokedst the LORD thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against the LORD,” (Deut. 9:7).

“Whosoever he be that doth rebel against thy commandment, and will not hearken unto thy words in all that thou commandest him, he shall be put to death: only be strong and of a good courage,” (Josh. 1:18,).

Works of darkness:

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them,” (Eph. 5:11).

Dead works

“Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,”  (Heb. 6:1).

“How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God, (Heb. 9:14)?”

The abominable thing that God hates

“The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness,” (Prov. 15:9).

“Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate,” (Jer. 44:4).

“Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah,” (Jer. 44:11)

Defiling

“For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness,” (Isa. 59:3).

Deceitful

“But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin,” (Heb. 3:13).

Disgraceful

“Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people,” (Prov. 14:34).

SALVATION

The first step to deliverance is a person must be saved. What is salvation? We must lead a person to the definite accepting of Jesus Christ before we pray for healing or deliverance. If there is no clear testimony of salvation, we ask him to invite Jesus Christ into his heart orally, to reaffirm his faith (Rev. 3:20).

"Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved," (Acts 2:21).

REPENTANCE

The key to true deliverance is repentance. This means to change one's mind as with regard to past or intended action of personal conduct. One must feel regret and determine in the heart sin is recognized, confessed and forsaken. There can be no full deliverance where a person's sin is a major factor, unless there is a frank recognition of it and willingness, with the help of God's grace, to give it up.

“For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death," (II Cor. 7:10).

The seeker of deliverance must utterly renounce and hate all the demons and all their various manifestations in his or her life. If one clings knowingly to even one small facet of the demonic in one's life, it will block the entire deliverance. God requires an unqualified and an unconditional surrender and a total renunciation of the enemy.

WITHOUT REPENTANCE OF THE PERSON

You can do them more harm by trying to cast evil spirits out if they are not believers or backsliders who have not repented and committed their lives to Jesus.  Jesus told us that seven worse spirits would return if the proper conditions were not met in deliverance.

“When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and takes with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there; and the last stage of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation,” (Matt. 12: 43-45).

BECOME BORN AGAIN

Accept God's Word that He loves you and wants to give you an abundant life.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life," (Jn. 3:16).

"I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly," (Jn. 10:10).

Accept God's word:  that you are a sinner; and this separates you from God: that you must truly repent or "turn away" from sin.

"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God…" (Rom. 3:23).

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord," (Rom. 6:23).

"But God commandeth His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us," (Rom. 5:8).

Accept through His Word: That Jesus Christ is our only contact with God.

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me," (Jn. 14:6).

"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus…" (I Tim. 2:5).

Receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord by your personal invitation.

"But as many as received Him to them gave them the power to become the sons of God," (Jn. 1:12).

"Behold I stand at the door and knock; If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come into Him," Christ speaking (Rev. 3:2).

Jesus wants to save you. If you are not trusting Christ as Lord and Savior, you need Him. God's solution is salvation by grace through faith.  Make a decision and trust God for the results.

Will you receive Christ right now? You can be saved in 30 seconds! Open the door and pray the sinner’s prayer!  Call on Jesus and to confess their sin to receive Him as Savior and Lord and pray:

Dear Father, I'm a lost sinner.  I repent. Please forgive me and come into my heart and save me. Thank You for saving my soul, In Jesus' name, Amen.

If you backslide say the same prayer, the Lord loves you and will forgive you.

Scriptures that reveal the divinity of Jesus Christ:

"Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him. And he is before all things and by him all things consists" (Col. 1:15-17).

"I and my Father are one,” (Jn. 10:30).

Scriptures that Jesus Christ took their sins on the cross,

"But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith he loved us, Even when were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (By grace ye are saved;) and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus," (Eph. 2:4-6; 1; II Cor. 5:21).

PROTECTION

"Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil,  against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places,"  (Eph. 6:11-12).

"Lest Satan should get an advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices…" (II Cor. 12: 11).

Satan is out to render you ineffective as a testimony for Jesus Christ, (I Pet. 5:8).

He will devour you by weakening you to sin, giving Satan legal rights to your life.

"Give no place to the devil,” (Eph.  4:27).

Break Satan's legal right to your life by renouncing each sin and its effect  upon your life as a lie of the devil  (II Cor. 4:2) and claim the truth from God's word.

Command the demons to go in the name of Jesus!

In severe demon possession it is advisable to have several Christians present to come against the powers of darkness.

Plead the blood of Jesus. There may be manifestation as you plead the blood and give commands but our authority stands, "I give unto you  power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you," (Lk.10: 19).

The spirits (demons) may speak to you.

Command them to shut up in the name of Jesus!

Demons come out by moaning, coughing, vomiting, writhing, yelling, great yawns, tears, spitting up-foam or blood.  It happened with Jesus and early believers. Don't suppress it, to hold it may prevent your deliverance.

Remember demon spirits are "beings" with wicked intelligence that seeks a body in which to express themselves. They are Satan's angels. (Rev. 12: 9). When they leave evil affliction Addictions, perversion, cancer, apparitions, compulsions have to obey and go!

Pray: In the name of Jesus Christ, I bind the rulers, strongmen, doorkeepers and all connected, related and resulting demons of witchcraft, Satan worship, human and animal sacrifice, black magic, witchcraft control, mind control, mind occult and the occult of, over, in and working in and throughout the world, the United States, each state, county, city, township, suburb, street, neighborhood, block, home and church.

Upon all Satan’s children partaking of and planning these wicked and evil practices I loose, in the name of Jesus, spirits of confusion, forgetfulness, destruction; also God’s mercy of salvation, adoption as children of God, (Rom. 8:15) and deliverance.

Father, please place a special covering of warrior angels over each ceremony, coven, witch and warlock, so that no curse or demon can emerge or be sent. In the name of Jesus, I return to the senders all curses and demons that they already have or will attempt to send.

Thank you Father for sending your special angels to protect (Exod. 8:22-23), hide and put a hedge around (Job 1:10; Hos. 2:6) all your children who are in the deliverance ministry; also the people and animals that would be sought out to be sacrificed or to be cursed.

Thank you Father for your love, in Jesus name. Amen.

Chapter Four

Overcoming Faith

EXTRAORDINARY SPIRITUAL POWER

It is true that Jesus Christ left fearsome spiritual power to His church, “and Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, all power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:  I lo am with you always, even unto the end of the world, Amen,” (Matt. 28:18:20).

Jesus asks this discerning question, “How can anyone enter a strongman’s house and carry off his possession unless he first ties up the strongman?” Then Jesus told us that we could enter his house in (Matt. 12:29), reads, “bind the strongman; before any warfare opposing powers and principalities, wicked rulers and evil spirits can be won to release the nation, cities, individual, family, the strongman must be defeated.

Satan is not going to allow anyone to destroy his enslaving influence without putting up very strong opposition, (Matt. 12:23-33). His dominating power must first be deactivated before a Christian can release the Devil’s caged victims; the most powerful spiritual weapon is binding and caging (arresting) the strongman. Jesus said, “Verily, I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall bound on earth shall be bound in heaven. And whatsoever ye shall loose on earth on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say unto you, if any of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by My Father which is in heaven, for where two or three are gathered in my name,” (Matt. 18: 18, 19, 20).

Indeed, binding the strong man is the first basic PRINCIPLE of spiritual warfare. Before any warfare opposing powers and principalities and wicked rulers and evil spirits can be won to release the nation, cities, individual, family, the strongman must be defeated, according to (Matt. 18: 18 – 20).

Once Satan’s power is bound, then the minister freely enters into his house and carries off Satan’s possessions. According to the scripture, you do it work; speak the Word of God to bind the demons and Jesus backs your word by executing His judgment upon the demons. The territory is delivered to Jesus Christ and Satan loses control.

It happens through the power of the words of the Bible that are spoken directly to the demons in the name of Jesus and His Word. It is the minister acting upon the spiritual authority that Jesus delegated to those who believe. He is sitting at the right hand of the Father releasing his power to defeat the Devil; then the imprisoned territory is delivered and Satan loses control. Spiritual warfare works with the minister in partnership with Jesus and they are able to defeat the Devil.

WE ARE IN A SPIRITUAL WARFARE

Christians must know that we are in warfare to defeat our lives and the lives of others. Satan wants to defeat the Church and bring many people into hell through using his ordained agents. They work their evil powers by sending demonic forces to carry out his wicked plans.

The Philistines make war on Israel in (1 Sam 28:1-6). Here is the design of the Philistines against Israel. They resolved to fight them, vs. 1. If the Israelites had not forsaken God, there would have been no Philistines remaining to molest them; if Saul had not forsaken him, they would by this time have been put out of all danger by them. The Philistines took an opportunity to make this attempt when they had David among them, whom they feared more than Saul and all his forces. The Philistines feared David because he was God’s obedient servant. They wanted to kill him because they wanted to take the territory back that he had won.

We have enemies too. Satan’s people want you dead! Christian warfare depends on our obedience to God and knowledge of His Word.

The expectation Achish had of assistance from David in this war, and the encouragement David gave him to expect it: "Thou shalt go with me to battle," says Achish. "If I protect thee, I may demand service from thee”; and he will think himself happy if he may have such a man as David on his side, who prospered whithersoever he went. David gave him an ambiguous answer: "We will see what will be done; it will be time enough to talk of that hereafter; but surely thou shalt know what thy servant can do," (vs. 2), that is, "I will consider in what post I may be best able to serve thee, if thou wilt but give me leave to choose it," Thus he keeps himself free from a promise to serve him and yet keeps up his expectation of it; for Achish took it in no other sense than as an engagement to assist him, and promised him, thereupon, that he would make him captain of the guards, protector, or prime-minister of state, (I Sam 28:1-6).[9]

The instruction of God to Moses showed him that he was going to inherit the land but he had to battle for it. God gave him the plan.

“Then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places: 53 And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein: for I have given you the land to possess it. 54 And ye shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among your families: and to the more ye shall give the more inheritance, and to the fewer ye shall give the less inheritance: every man's inheritance shall be in the place where his lot falleth; according to the tribes of your father’s ye shall inherit. 55 But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell,” (Num. 33:52-55).

This is a perfect description of spiritual warfare. We cannot coexist with the enemy. Time and time again, and we see God’s people going into battle in the Old Testament with God as their Commander and Chief. Again, we see the instructions such as shown in (Deut. 2:21-28), concerning the giants, “A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead”:  [10]

DO NOT LOOK AT THEIR FACES (FLESH) BUT LOOK AT THE SUPERNATURAL GOD

God’s people simply could not coexist peacefully with His enemies. He told Jeremiah that he would use his words to destroy the enemies.

“Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. 9 Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. 10 See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant,” (Jer. 1:8-10).

[I have this day set thee over the nations] God represents his messengers the prophets as doing what he commanded them to declare should be done. In this sense they rooted up, pulled down, and destroyed-declared God's judgments; they build up and planted-declared the promises of his mercy, (Jer. 1:10).Thus God says to Isaiah, (Isa 6:10): "Make the heart of this people fat-and shut their eyes." Show them that they are stupid and blind; and that, because they have shut their eyes and hardened their hearts, God will in his judgments leave them to their hardness and darkness.”  [11]

Obedience is better than sacrifice, (I Sam 15:22-23), “And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. 23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.”

Saul got into spiritual trouble because he wanted to do it his way. God told Saul in (I Sam 15:3) to go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

Look at what Saul did in (I Sam 15:8), “And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.”

And then see (I Sam 15:9), “But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but everything that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.”

Saul lost his kingdom because he tried to move in the physical realms by his own mind motivations and in the flesh. (I Sam 15:1-9).

Saul was a chosen vessel of the Lord to do His will and execute His Word. Though he was appointed to destroy Amalek, Saul decided to go into this war, ignoring God’s divine orders. Saul was in rebellion which is the sin of witchcraft.

God then swore that he would have war with Amalek from generation to generation, and that in process of time he would utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek; this is the work that Saul is now appointed to do (v. 3): "Go and smite Amalek. Israel is now strong, and the measure of the iniquity of Amalek is now full; now go and make a full riddance of that devoted nation." He is expressly commanded to kill and slay all before him, man and woman, infant and suckling, and not spare them out of pity; also ox and sheep, camel and ass, and not spare them out of covetousness,” (I Sam 15:1:3). [12]

Saul saved the life of the king and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them:  but everything that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.

He lost his life, kingship, and sons because he did not obey God to war against his enemies. Today Christians are losing territories that have been gained by past generations. They have lost entire Christian denominations, nations, cities, families because they refuse to go into battle and fight against the wiles of the Devil.

AUTHORITY BINDING AND LOOSING

Jesus gives Christians authority; all authority is vested in Him.  “. . . Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation . . .  And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons . . .” (Mk. 16:15-17).

Knowing how to use one’s binding, enables one to enter into spiritual warfare with faith to overcome, (Matt. 18:18). The meaning of the words, “bind and loose,” are used in both places in a declaratory sense, of things, not of persons. It is ho and hosa, in the neuter gender, both in (Matt. 16) and here. “Whatsoever thing or things ye shall bind or loose”. Consequently, the same commission which was given at first to Peter alone (Matt. 16:19), was afterward enlarged to all the apostles.

I believe that we Christians have absolute power over demonic spirits when we. Scripturally are submitted to God and properly use His Word.

BARNABAS AND SAUL were evangelizing, preaching about Jesus. But Elymas the sorcerer was interfering with them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. “Then Saul, (who also is called Paul), filled with Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him, and said, O full of all subtlety and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?”

It is through the power of Paul’s words under the anointing of the Holy Spirit that caused God’s punishment to come upon this imposter.

“And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand,” (Acts 13:11).

Paul used his supernatural authority to stop the sorcerer from stealing a man’s soul. God backed Paul’s authority up and caused Paul’s words to immediately take an effect over the sorcerer’s life, (Acts 13:11).

[Not seeing the sun for a season] (Remember that the sun was usually the god that was worshiped by the pagans). The man was cut off from his god.  Paul’s words were more powerful than the sorcerer’s and demonstrated to the people that his God was not only more powerful but his God was alive!

For how long of time this blindness was to continue is nowhere specified. It was, however, in mercy ordained that the blindness should not be permanent and final.  Though it was a punishment, it was at the same time benevolent, for nothing would be more likely to lead him to reflection and repentance than such a state of blindness.

It was such a manifest proof that God was opposed to him it was such a sudden divine judgment; it so completely cut him off from all possibility of practicing his arts of deception that it was adapted to bring him to repentance. Accordingly there is a tradition in the early church that he became a Christian. Origen says that "Paul, by a word striking him blind, by anguish converted him to godliness"

[A mist] The word used here properly denotes "a darkness or obscurity of the air; a cloud," etc. But it also denotes "an extinction of sight by the drying up or disturbance of the tumors of the eye."

[The hand of the Lord is upon thee] Paul said, “God shall punish thee.”  By this sudden and miraculous punishment he would be awed and humbled, and the proconsul and others would be convinced that he was an impostor, and that the gospel was true. His wickedness deserved such as punishment.  At the same time that due punishment was inflicted, it was designed that the gospel should be extended by this means.

In all this there was the highest evidence that Paul was under the inspiration of God. He was full of the Holy Spirit; he detected the secret feelings and desires of the heart of Elymas; and he inflicted on him a punishment that could have proceeded from none but God.[13]

That the apostles had the power of inflicting punishment is apparent from various places in the New Testament, “To deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus,” (I Cor. 5:5);

“Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme,” (I Tim 1:20).

The punishment inflicted on Elymas, also, would be highly emblematic of the darkness and perverseness of his conduct. [14]

Notice that the sorcerer’s hindrance to the work of Paul was not attacking him through oppression or physical. The sorcerer was trying to influence a man to turn him away from the Gospel. An attack of oppression can be used by modern wizards and witches to stop the minister work. So, how should we stop these hexes and spells demons sent by Satan’s Agents? Should we simply pray and ask Jesus for relief? Should we resist the work of the demons by rebuking them and sending them back to their dwelling places where they came from?  Satan and his agents are involved in keeping people from the kingdom God. Should we just ignore their handy work? Let’s see what the Word of God says and not what we think in our minds. Remember this, when an evil power is sent, it will abide until a superior power defeats it. Together with Jesus, you are that superior power but you have to use the power that Jesus paid a price for you to put to use!

USING GOD’S WORD

You must use the Word of God to tap into the Power of God. You must be a doer of the Word.

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do,” (Heb. 4:12-13).

THE STRONGMAN

Jesus asks this penetrating question, “How can anyone enter a strongman’s house and carry off his possession unless he first ties up the strongman?” Then we could enter his house. (Matt. 12:29). The King James Version Bible says “bind the strongman.”  Indeed, binding the strong man is the first basic PRINCIPLE of spiritual warfare.  Before any warfare opposing powers and principalities and wicked rulers and evil spirits can be won to release the nation, cities, individual, family, the strongman must be defeated, (Matt. 18: 18. 19, 20).

JESUS THE SON OF GOD

Peter’s confession that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of God; his confession of the Divinity of our Lord was the first that ever was made by man; to him. Therefore, the keys of the kingdom of heaven: i.e. God gave to him. The Holy Spirit made a choice of him among all the apostles that the Gentiles should first, by his mouth, hear the word of the Gospel, and believe.

Peter first opened the kingdom of heaven to the Gentiles when he preached to Cornelius. It was open to the Jews before. However, if we should suppose that it was not yet open to them also did Peter open the kingdom of heaven, in his sermon at the Great Pentecost.

Thus, Peter exercised his two keys: that for the Jews at the great Pentecost and that for the Gentiles when he admitted Cornelius into the church. This was the reward of his first confession in which he owned Jesus to be the promised Messiah. And what Peter loosed, i.e. declared as necessary to be believed and practiced by the disciples here, was ratified above. And what he declared unlawful to be believed and practiced (i.e. what he bound), was actually forbidden by God himself.

AGGRESSIVE ATTITUDE

It is clear in Bible history that the manifestation of the power of God in The Pentecost and through the Apostles meant again an aggressive attitude to the powers of Darkness. Therefore, the growth and maturity of the Church of Christ at the end of the dispensation will mean the same recognition and the same attitude toward the Satanic hosts of the prince of the power of the air, with the same co-witness of the Holy Spirit to the authority of the Name of Jesus, as in the early Church. In brief, that the Church of Christ will reach its high water mark, when .it’s people understands how to ‘bind the strong man’ by prayer, ‘command’ the spirits of evil in the Name of Christ, and deliver men and women from their power.

You must know who Jesus Christ is scripturally, spiritually and experientially before taking up spiritual weapons for war. Yes, every Christian enters into a spiritual battle when saved because the Devil becomes your adversary; always remember, the battle is the Lord’s and He will teach you how to survive the spiritual attack of the Devil.

It is true that Jesus Christ left the Church overthrowing spiritual authority, (Matt. 18:18-22), “Verily I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.  Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.  For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”

Peter’s confession that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God; his confession of the Divinity of our Lord was the first that ever was made by man; to him, therefore, Jesus gave him the keys of the kingdom of heaven. God made choice of him among all the apostles that the Gentiles should first, by his mouth, hear the word of the Gospel, and believe. He first opened the kingdom of heaven to the Gentiles, when he preached to Cornelius. It was open to the Jews all along before; but if we should suppose that it was not, yet to them also did Peter open the kingdom of heaven, in his sermon at the great Pentecost.

Thus, Peter exercised his two keys: that for the Jews at the great Pentecost; and that for the Gentiles when he admitted Cornelius into the church. This was the reward of his first confession in which he owned Jesus to be the promised Messiah. And what Peter loosed, i.e. declared as necessary to be believed and practiced by the disciples here, was ratified above. And what he declared unlawful to be believed and practiced (i.e. what he bound), was actually forbidden by God himself.

BLOCKING TRANSFERENCE OF SPIRITS

I forbid and block all Satanic and demonic activities for myself and all my family our lives. I ask you Father to surround myself, family, church, pastor and leaders and wives with warring angels. The blood of Jesus Christ is between us and the forces from hell in Jesus’s name.

SPIRITUAL STUPORT

Spiritual realms have not changed. God still has enemies and God still has people. The Devil also has people and they are taking territories for him. Meanwhile, God’s people seem to be in a spiritual stupor concerning the fact that there is a Spiritual Warfare going on. If you look at the condition of the Church in western civilization, it seems we are losing the Battle! It also seems that Satan’s people are deeper in his spiritual realm than God’s people are abiding His spiritual realm. Therefore, Satan’s people are driven to do his will. God does not drive his people; they must use their free will.

Therefore, most choose and will not to fight or struggle against the powers of darkness. They will to just have fun with the “Holy Ghost.” The want to “feel” the Holy Ghost tickling them and making them laugh. They want the benefits of Christianity but they do not want to pay the price for Jesus. The result is our families, cities, and nation is being taken over by the demonic powers. The answer to this dilemma is, they believe too simply to ignore it, that it will go away.

HOW SPIRITUAL WARFARE WORKS

Wizards, witches and Satan’s agents are strongly used by the Devil to attack the Church of Jesus and her ministers. They are sent by Satan to destroy the church and kill God’s people. They are trained to infiltrate and assault God’s people for defeat and death.

Christian people ask this question? Should we send the demonic spirits back to where they came from? I believe that we have absolute power over demonic spirits when we scripturally are submitted to God and properly use His Word. Evil spirits have no right to be in our space. Since some people love their fellowship of darkness, that’s where they

(The demons), need to go, back to their dwelling places.

We do have the power to command them to send them back to their dwelling places. Jesus said in, (Lk. 10:18-19), “And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

Yet, many of God’s people are being brutalized by demons. Why? Did Jesus lie?

No! God forbid. He did not lie. However, Jesus cannot make His Church serve Him in wisdom and the knowledge of His Word.  He gave us His delegated authority in Ephesians Chapter one. We have His power but most Christians don’t know it or understand that demons do not have the right to attack them or defeat them. When a demon comes to attack, he will be able to abide, until a superior power defeats him.

SPOILING POWERS OF SATAN

Jesus power is always greater, (Col. 1:15) shows Him victorious over Satan. “And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”

The ability of performing deliverance belongs essentially to God, who is all-powerful and omnipotent. The term power has the sense of ability, strength (Gen. 31:6; Psa. 22:20; Isa. 37:27); right, privilege, or dignity (Jn. 1:12; Acts 5:4; I Cor. 7:37; 9: 4), Gk. dunamis; absolute authority (Matt. 28:18), same Gk. as above); Gk. Kratos, the exertion or act of power, as of the Holy Spirit (Eph. 1:19),

This “Great Commission” is our marching order in evangelism. It is global in its range to reach the sin scorched world; heaven high and eternity long in the duration of its result.

Jesus warned that is not going to allow anyone to destroy his house without putting up a strong fight. He must be arrested or rendered ineffective especially by removing Satan’s ability to act as a threat or obstacle before a Christian can release his human captives. Jesus asks this penetrating question, (Matt. 12:29), “Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? And then he will spoil his house.”

“And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?  But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, this fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? And then he will spoil his house. He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. Wherefore I say unto you, all manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.  And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.” (Matt. 12:23-33).

HE LOVED CURSING

David had great wisdom and understanding of the power of words. He understood that words were spiritual or “spirit.” He used words to praise God . . . to command his army . . . to love his wives . . . to rebuke his enemies. When he used his selected words, they worked and accomplished his intended purpose.

So, when he prayed to God concerning his enemies and their words against him, he took their words seriously. He understood that he had to nullify their words otherwise their words would take effect over his life and be able to accomplish their goals.

When David prayed to God about his enemies, he actually did ask God to return the words back to his opponents.  He did not return the words but simply ask God to do it!

Crying and praying to God, he said, (Ps. 109:17-21), “As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him. 18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones. 19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually. 20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul. 21 But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.”

Spiritual warfare happens through spiritual words. You must speak the Word of God under the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

The Devil anoints his people and they work by words, hexes, curses, and spells. Once a wizard or witch releases their curses and spells through words, those powers come and will abide unless a stronger power rises up to cancel them.  Notice the Scripture below.

David was crying out for God’s protection; protection from what? . The Words of his enemies  . . . ? Notice also, that David returned those words (spirits) by speaking (words in prayer to God) speaking, asking God to reverse their words! (Ps. 109: 17-21).

David demonstrates in the Scriptures below that the words of the wicked were having an effect upon his life.

“For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue. 3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause. 4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer. 5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love,” (Psa 109:2-15)

At this point of his prayer, David began to ask God to punish the wicked that had been attacking him.

“Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand. 7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin. 8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office. 9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow. 10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places. 11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour. 12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children. 13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out. 14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD and not the sin of his mother be blotted out. 15 Let them be before the LORD continually that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth,” (Psa. 109:6).

David was asking God to turn the spiritual words that had been unleashed upon him, to be returned to the sender!

WALKING AFTER DELIVERANCE

Your deliverance may be won by the prayers of others but you must then talk spiritual action yourself. Deliverance can be lost in a moment of sin and defeat. Jesus gave a very solemn warning:

“When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation,” (Matt. 12:43 45).

Evil spirit will try to return.  Jesus said the man was empty. He had not done his part.  He had filled himself with Jesus and His Word.

You must be born again, filled with the Holy Spirit and the Word of God. If you do not give yourself to God's word regularly, you are in a dangerous position. Your body is a temple FOR GOD. When your sign says, "vacancy,” demons are free to enter.

“Praise God, singing hymns, quoting scripture and praying in tongues. Praying in tongues 'edifies us, or guiding us up in the Lord,” (Jude 20).

Memorize scriptures every day.

Plead the blood of the lamb over yourself. "And they overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the lamb, and by the word of their testimony." (Rev. 12:11). Overcome Satan by telling what the blood of Jesus Christ does for you, “Jesus’ blood covers you by His blood and his power is now broken over your life.

PRAYER LOOSENING PEOPLE

According (Matt. 18:18), in the name of Jesus, I cut Satan, his demons and curses loose from me, my family and friends. I command you, Satan, and all evil spirits and curses to loose me and my family and all the things you have stolen from us that are ours through the blessings of Jesus. I ask you Lord, to send Your angels to bring these things back to us.

Father I lose your power over myself and my family and ask you to send you Holy Angels to fight our battles in the heaven lies.  You divide, and go Let them guard us from Satan and all his hosts who would have us believing and agreeing with lies. We bind all deception within us to prevent any more from getting through to us.

Upon all fears I lose perfect agape, true, pure love; the love of God and our love for each other (I Jn. 4:18); power (II Tim. 1:7); sound mind and self-control (Mic. 3:8).

Upon our minds and all deceiving spirits I loose, knowledge, revelation and understanding, (Jn. 8:32); wisdom (Job 20:3); truth (Exod. 28:3; Eph. 1:17); diligent searching (Jn. 14:17; I Jn. 4:6); freedom (Psa. 77:6) and deliverance (Psa. 51:12).

Upon all marriage and family destroying spirits I loose, God’s family protecting angels (Gen. 2-4).

Upon rejection I loose the love of the brethren (I Jn. 3:14); acceptance in the beloved (Eph. 1:6); the acceptance of God and the approval of men (Rom. 14:18); adoption as children of God, (Rom. 8:15).

I lose upon us your power of praise (Isa 61:3); thankfulness worship, (Jn. 4:24); singing (I Cor. 14: 15); prayer (I Cor. 14:15); and all the fruits (Gal. 5:22-23); Love, joy, peace, patience and longsuffering (Eccl. 7:8); gentleness, kindness, goodness, faithfulness (Prov. 11:12:12); meekness (I Cor. 4:21, Gal 6:1); Humility (Prov. 1:19; Isa 57:15); temperance, self-control and all of the gifts of the Holy Spirit (I Cor. 12:8-10); wisdom, knowledge, faith (II Cor. 4:12); prophecies, healings, miracles (Rev. 19:10); tongues and interpretation of tongues, Discernment of spirits; quiet (I Pet. 3:4); constraining (Job 32:18); contrite (Psa. 34:18); broken (Psa. 51:17); Judgment (Isa 4:4, 28:6); repentance, conviction (Isa. 57:15; 66:2).

Praise the Lord. Thank you for freedom in Jesus’ name!

Chapter Five

Chasing Evil Spirits

CAGE FULL OF BIRDS

“As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge,” (Jer. 5:27-28).

ACCESS TO ENTRY INTO MY KINGDOM

As I was looking at the scenario, the service ended and the Young revived Pastor went to exhort and correct the traditional and theological minded Pastor about His message and he was categorically refusing to be corrected. I could see how they sharply differ in terms of beliefs by they are managing the same Church.

The Lord also showed me that few and very few had spiritual eyes and ears opened to hear and listen to what the Lord is saying. “But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear, (Matt. 13:16).

The Lord showed me that so many people are following these traditional and theology minded Pastors and all of them will miss the rapture if they do not repent and change their ways.

VISION ENDED

Brethren, The pastors and Servants of God have become idols in their Churches worshipped by their Church members. It is absolutely dangerous what is happening in the Church. Repent and come back to the way of the Lord.

As I was recounting the vision above to the prayer group, The Lord once again gave me the message of Jeremiah 5. Here it is below:

“Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not,” (Jer 5:21)

The servants of God have become stiff-necked and have decided to not listen to the Lord who called them to the field of Ministry. They are now taking possession of the Churches and they have abandoned the Lord and His ways.

But this people hath a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted and gone, (Jer.5:23).

Pastors have revolted against the Lord God who called them and they are now doing their own things in the Church and leading the people to take them as an example, instead of leading the people to take the character of Christ.

“Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in his season: he reserveth unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest,” (Jer. 5:24).

Pastors have stopped fearing the Lord their God and they do not consider anymore who is he but they only consider what he can give: Money, Building mega-churches and accumulating wealth on earth.

“As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich. They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge,” (Jer 5:27-28).

The churches have become a cage for the many Souls in deception and on the pretense of the Lord, [pastors are becoming rich and mighty. They have made political connections with politicians and have become great and rich. The Lord will judge them severely and many of these will be left behind. Pastors; repent and comeback to the Lord who gave you the vision. Repent and get back to the mountain where the Lord used to speak to you when you received your Church Vision. Where did you sell the prayer life you used to have??? Where is the way of the cross in your life and your church?

“Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land;” (Jer. 5:29-30).

The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof, Jer. 5:31 )?

The pastors are preaching messages that are offline from the Lord. The Holy Spirit is saying one thing and they are preaching another thing. The Holy Spirit is going in one direction and the Pastors are going in the opposite direction. Their messages are not what the Lord is giving them. They are lost in time and space and season. They are lost in real time. [15]

DEVILS FLEE

Joining the battle scripturally, we can be victorious. Doing the Word of God will enable you to chase the demons; they will flee from you, (Jam. 4:7).

Jesus said to “first bind the strong man,” (Matt. 12:22-33). Satan is not going to let you take his kingdom without putting up very strong resistance.  The enemy must first be neutralized before we can release his captive.

“Or, again, how can anyone enter a strong man’s house and carry off his possession unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can rob his house,” (Matt. 12:29).  “Bind the strong man.” Binding the strong man is a basic principle of spiritual warfare.  Before any warfare against Satan can be won against the nation, city, individual, family, the strong man must be won.

Once bound, Jesus enters freely into his house and carries off Satan’s possession. When a person is delivered and Satan loses control.  The Kings James Version says, “Spoils,” (Matt. 12:29). A Greek word for spoil occurs in two forms, Diapazo and harapzo. These words mean “an intensive spoiling, plundering and snatching away.”   In (Lk. 11-22), the Greek word Skulon, conveys “arms stripped from a foe.” Putting it simply, Satan is stripped of his weapons, (Lk. 11:21, 22). The Greek word Deo expresses to literally ties or fastens, to arrest or paralyze. The Christian reclaims everything that Satan has stolen. Therefore, Christians aggressively binding the power of demons and prohibits them from the carry-forward their assignments.  However, they had problems discerning the source of his power.

Satan is stripped of his weapons (Lk. 11:21, 22).

All that he has previously captured is reclaimed.

When a demon is bound is prevented in carrying out his assignment.

The Greek word Deo means to literally tie or fasten.

To restrain or immobilize

Once Satan’s power is bound, Jesus enters freely enters into his house and carries off Satan’s possessions (demons). Satan will not allow anyone to destroy his work without putting up very strong counteraction.  His control must first be neutralized before Christians can release his captives. (Matt. 12:23-33). The territory is delivered and Satan loses control. Satan has tremendous control over his captives and controls them completely. “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost; In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them,” (II Cor. 4:3-4).

BINDING AND CAGING DEMONS

Cage all the demons asking the Father to loose His Angels and the Word in commanding prayer to send them to the feet of Jesus for torment before their time according to (Matt. 8:29), “And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? Art thou come hither to torment us before the time?”

“As a cage is full of birds (demons), so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich,”( Jer. 5:27,

“And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird,” (Rev. 18:2).

Father, In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I loose into myself and my family the angels of God to fight our battles in the heaven lies. Let them guard us from Satan and all his hosts who would have us believing and agreeing with lies. We bind all deception within us to prevent any more from getting through to us. Lord, minister to our needs.

LOOSING THE STOLEN MIND SATAN’S CAPTIVITY

In Africa, witches and wizards can steal the minds of people and exchange intelligences into the minds of their children. I ministered to several young men while in Africa that had their minds stolen in this manner… How it works, I can’t say but Jesus’ power can heal them.

Both men were healed and restored. One returned to college, the other remained in the church and became a worker there. Both cases were the result of witchcraft powers being worked against them.

This is how I prayed for them.

I bound the witchcraft power that had been worked over their lives and released the power of Jesus and His mind over them. Phil 2:5, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus,”

I bound the strongmen and his demonic helpers that have stolen the mind of _______________________ In the name of Jesus

I put the strongmen and helpers under the feet of Jesus.

In the name of Jesus

I bound the powers of the Wizards and witches.

Called their minds back asking the Lord to reconcile them to Him... (Col 1:21).

I discovered years ago that some people that are under mind controllers, minds were shattered by traumas and fear. When we ministered to them, we simply commanded their

Minds to return and ask Jesus to give them a single mind; being double minded makes a person unstable in all his ways and mentally ill. Therefore, it also attacks their nervous system and causes illness. God can heal it. (Jam. 1:8), “A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.”

I loose everything the enemy has stolen, talents and sound mind and command him to return it.

I command the demons to go under the feet of Jesus.

Father, I ask that You send special angels to protect (Exod. 8:22-23); hide and put a hedge around (Job 1:10; Hosea 2:6) all of your children who are in the deliverance ministry. Also for all the people and animals that would be sought out to be sacrificed or to be curse.

SPIRIT OF DIVINATION PYTHON SPIRIT

The priestess of Apollo at Delphi was called PYTHON SPIRIT was inspired by Apollo, who was associated with oracles.  The girl was Demon-possessed, and her uncontrolled utterances were regarded as coming from a god. Her owners made money for themselves by using her to tell fortunes.

[Possessed with a spirit of divination] Echousan pneuma puthoona, having a spirit of Python, or of Apollo. Pytho was, according to fable, a huge serpent, that had an oracle at Mount Parnassus, famous for predicting future events; Apollo slew this serpent, and hence, he was called Pythius, and became celebrated as the foreteller of future events; and all those, who could or pretended to predict future events, were influenced by the spirit of Apollo Pythius. As oftentimes the priestesses of this god became greatly agitated, and gave answers apparently from their bellies, when their mouths remained closed, puthoon was applied to the engastrimuthoi (ventriloquists). Hesychius defines puthoon as daimonion mantikon, a divining demon; and which Paul expelled, (Acts 16:18. Lev. 19:31, and Deut. 18:11).

[Brought her masters much gain by soothsaying]  Manteuomenee, by divination, or what we call telling fortunes. Our term soothsaying coming from the Anglo-Saxon truth; and to say, i.e. truth saying, or saying the truth; for, as it was supposed among the pagan that such persons spoke by the inspiration of their god, consequently what they said must be true. However, our translators might have used a term here that would not have been so creditable to this Pythoness; for, what she said concerning the apostles excepted, she certainly could not be supposed to tell the truth, while her inspiration came from him who is the father of lies. But Satan will sometimes conceal himself under the guise of truth, that he may the more effectually deceive.

[These men are the servants of the most high God which show unto us the way of salvation.] It is astonishing how such a testimony could be given in such a case; every syllable of it true, and at the same time full, clear, and distinct. But mark the deep design and artifice of this evil spirit:

He well knew that the Jewish law abhorred all magic, incantations, magical rites, and dealings with familiar spirits; he therefore bears what was in itself a true testimony to the apostles, that by it he may destroy their credit, and ruin their usefulness. The Jews, by this testimony, would be led at once to believe that the apostles were in compact with these demons, and that the miracles they performed were done by the agency of these wicked spirits, and that the whole was the effect of magic; and this, of course, would harden their hearts against the preaching of the Gospel.

The GENTILES, finding that their own demon bore testimony to the apostles, would naturally consider that the whole was one system; that they had nothing to learn, nothing to correct; and thus the preaching of the apostles must be useless to them. In such a predicament as this, nothing could have saved the credit of the apostles but their dispossessing this woman of her familiar spirit, and that in the most incontestable manner; for what could have saved the credit of Moses and Aaron, when the magicians of Egypt turned their rods into serpents, had not Aaron's rod devoured theirs? And what could have saved the credit of these apostles but the casting out of this spirit of divination, with whih, otherwise, both Jews and Gentiles would have believed them in compact?

(Num 10:9), “And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.”

BIBLICAL HISTORY

Bible history that the manifestation of the power of God in ‘The Pentecost’ and through the Apostles meant again an aggressive attitude to the powers of darkness; therefore, the growth and maturity of the Church of Christ at the end of the dispensation will mean the same recognition and the same attitude toward the Satanic hosts of the prince of the power of the air, with the same co-witness of the Holy Spirit to the authority of the Name of Jesus, as in the early Church. In brief, that the Church of Christ will reach its high water mark, when . . . it knows how to ‘bind the strong man’ by prayer, ‘command’ the spirits of evil in the Name of Christ, and deliver men and women from their power.

Gary Kinnaman develops this theological foundation for binding and loosing; the use of the phrase binding and loosing did not, in fact, originate with Jesus. It was a frequent expression of first century Jewish rabbinical dialect. According to Alexander Bruce in the Expositors Greek New Testament to bind and loose (Greek, deo and luo meant simply to prohibit and to permit, that is to establish the Jewish religious authorities at the time of Christ retained to establish guidelines for or keys to, religious practice and social interaction.

But deo (to bind, tie) also expresses supernatural control. In (Lk. 13 15-16) Jesus rebuked a Jewish leader. “The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the Sabbath loose” (Greek: Luo, loose, untie) his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering, (Lk. 13:15 16). And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, (Greek: deo, bound) lo, these eighteen years, be loosed (Greek: Luo, loose) from this bond on the Sabbath day?”

(Lk. 13:16), Commentary

[Whom Satan hath bound] Satan is the name given to the prince or leader of evil spirits, called also the devil, Beelzebub, and the old serpent, (Matt 12:24; Rev 12:9; 20:2). By his "binding" here is meant that he had inflicted this disease upon her. It was not properly a "possession" of the devil, for that commonly produced derangement; but God had suffered him to afflict her in this manner, similar to the way in which he was permitted to try Job. (See the notes at Job 1:12; 2:6 7). It is no more "improbable" that God would suffer "Satan" to inflict pain, than that he would suffer a wicked "man" to do it; yet nothing is more common than for one "man" to be the occasion of bringing on a disease in another which may terminate only with the life. He that seduces a virtuous man and leads him to intemperance, or he that wounds him or strikes him, may disable him as much as Satan did this woman. If God permits it in one case, he may, for the same reason, in another.

In the day of Jesus Christ, the Jewish leaders understood only the natural past of binding or loosing and He was showing them through the encounter with the woman bound by infirmity that binding and loosing had a supernatural side. Notice that Jesus said specifically that it was Satan who bound the woman.

It is a fact that the Jewish leaders were furious with Jesus for telling His disciples that they had the authority to bind and loose were not part of the prescribed Jewish religious/political system. They felt that He was giving them authority that He had no right to give. They did not understand that He was giving them authority in the unseen real in Heavenly places. This realm where the binding and losing occur and from which all things on the earth can be bound or loosed - disallowed or allowed.

Christians receive their authority from Jesus Christ and all authority is vested in Him. Every believer can take to heart. He said to them in (Mk. 16:15 18), “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.”

Knowing ones spiritual authority and how to use their binding power, enables one to enter into spiritual warfare with faith to overcome. Not only that, however, Jesus broadened their power here because He opened it to be used throughout the entire world!

Mk.. 16:15 “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

[Into all the world] to the Gentiles as well as the Jews.

It was contrary to the opinions of the Jews that the Gentiles should be admitted to the privileges of the Messiah's kingdom or that the partition wall between them should be broken down. (Acts 22:21-22), “And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.  And they gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their voices, and said, away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.”

It was long before the disciples could be trained to the belief that the gospel was to be preached to all men; and it was only by special revelation, even after this command that Peter preached to the Gentile centurion, (Acts 10); Jesus has graciously ordered that the preaching of the gospel shall be stopped by no barriers. Wherever there is man; there it is to be proclaimed. To every sinner he offers life, and all the world is included in the message of mercy, and every child of Adam is offered eternal salvation.

[Preach] Proclaim; make known; offer. To do this to every creature is to offer pardon and eternal life to him on the terms of the plan of mercy through repentance, and faith in the Lord Jesus.

[The gospel] The good news, the tidings of salvation; the assurance that the Messiah has come, and that sin may be forgiven and the soul saved...

[To every creature] That is, to every human being. Man has no right to limit this offer to any class of men. God commands his servants to offer the salvation to "all men." If they reject, it is at their peril. God is not to blame if they do not choose to be saved. His mercy is manifest; his grace is boundless in offering life to a creature as guilty as man.

BREAKING THE SHACKLES OF DEMONIC BONDAGE

The war is already won in Christ who is not only our Lord but Lord of all. Joining the battle scripturally, we can be victorious also. Doing the Word of God will enable you to chase the devils and they will flee from you, (Jam. 4:7).

Once bound, Jesus enters freely into his house and carries off Satan’s possession. When a person is delivered and Satan loses control.  The Kings James Version says, “Spoils,” (Matt. 12:29). A Greek word for spoil occurs in two forms, diapazo and harapzo. These words mean “an intensive spoiling, plundering and snatching away.”    In (Lk. 11-22), the Greek word Skulon, conveys “arms stripped from a foe.” Putting it simply, Satan is stripped of his weapons, (Lk. 11:21, 22). The Greek word Deo expresses to literally ties or fastens, to arrest or paralyze. The Christian reclaims everything that Satan has stolen. Therefore, Christians aggressively binding the power of demons and prohibits them from the carry-forward their assignments.  However, they had problems discerning the source of his power.

Satan is stripped of his weapons, (Lk. 11:21, 22).

All that he has previously captured is reclaimed.

When a demon is bound is prevented in carrying out his assignment.

The Greek word Deo means to literally tie or fasten.

To restrain or immobilize.

Satan has tremendous power over his captives and controls them completely. “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost; In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them,” (II Cor. 4:3-4). Yes, it is true, Christians can be delivered from the powers of darkness through repentance from sins, such as, tormenting spirits, sickness, depression, death, healing, miracles, drugs, cigarettes, sexual perversions, pornography, alcohol addictions, abuse, rebellion, anger, ancestral curses, cults, occult, Satanism, witchcraft.

BE CERTAIN OF YOUR AUTHORITY

Jesus said that DELIVERANCE was the "children's bread,” (Matt. 15:26 and Mk. 7:27).

(Matt. 15:26), “But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.”

(Mk. 7:27), “But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.”

When reading the Word, always remember that it was written to God’s church people and not the sinners in the world. Remember this; if you do not believe that you can be invaded in great numbers with demons, and someone tries to cast them OUT, then the demons will not leave. Your doubt will give them license to stay. That is why you must humble yourself before the Lord and say, “IF I have any demons, I want them OUT!” And be led by the Holy Spirit to a believer who knows how to cast them out!

Use your authority-Satan must obey. Demons don't have a choice- They tremble and run when a Christian will talk and agree with the Word of God. It is God's will for you to be free from every evil influence of the devil. "And these attesting signs will accompany those who BELIEVE: in My Name they will cast OUT demons..." (Mk. 16:17).Friendship with the world is sin! Many churches seek only higher numbers in the congregation, and therefore must compromise the Gospel. Deep repentance is required (verses 9-10 below)! Seek only humility and obedience to the Lord

(Jam. 4:4), “Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

(Jam. 4:5), “Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?”

(Jam. 4:6), “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.”

(Jam. 4:7),”Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”

(Jam. 4:8), “Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.”

(Jam. 4:9) “Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.”

Jam. 4:10 “Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.”

Provisions made by His Word

Through blood of Jesus

Through His delegated authority

“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” (Rom. 6:16).

Chapter Six

Power of Deception

CAN CHRISTIANS HAVE DEMONIC PROBLEMS?

Yes! The Bible reveals that Satan may seduce a child of God away from the protection of the blood of Jesus, entice him or her to miss God's will, and drives him or her onto death or self-destruction. The Christian becomes confused and defeated and must seek help, when Satan with his demonic spirits get in control of some phase of the Christians- life. (I Tim. 4:1, 2; II Cor. 12:7; I Thess. 2:18).

Is the problem possession?

Cast the evil spirits out (Mk. 5:8, 16:17; Acts 8:7, etc.).

"... For the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land," (Hos. 4:1).

POWER OF THE DELIVERANCE MINISTRY

The power of the Deliverance ministry is the Gift of Discerning demons, the human spirit, God’s spirit and His Angels.

Jesus Christ, as presented by The Father and Jesus’ testimony is according to the Word, “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, all power is given to me in heaven and in earth . . .” (Matt.  28:18).

PROBLEMS WITH DELIVERANCE

A major problem in the deliverance ministry is, people seeking instant change while refusing to clean up and walk rightly before God. These people become spiritual monsters.  They try to sit on the fence and will use a deliverance ministry to minister to cast devils out with no intention of giving up certain pet sins.  If a person is not willing to walk the walk of faith and holiness before Jesus, don't waste their time nor yours.

Pray for them and ask God's mercy.

Don't let them tie you up casting spirits out that they have no intentions of keeping out;

If God's not working with them, don't you either

Another problem is, many will slip across town to a deliverance minister because they fall into sin and don't want their pastor to know.  This can be an abuse of the deliverance minister because after deliverance, a person must be taught how to stay free. After the deliverance minister spends hours with such a person, many times, they never see that person again.  Unfortunately for that person, sometimes they fall away because they do not take the time to learn how to walk after deliverance.  Sometimes, deliverance is instant but the knowledge of keeping it, comes through teaching and learning defense when these spirits try to return, (Matt. 12:43:45).

GOSSIP AGAINST DELIVERANCE MINISTERS

Remember, like Jesus Himself, deliverance ministers are the most maligned people.  Satan is the accuser of the brethren; this not to say that false ministers should not be biblically discerned and exposed so that Jesus’ sheep will be protected.  Pray God's protection and bind the gossiping devils that attack these ministers.  They are in the front lines but have little protection from the church and its intercessors because so few understand spiritual things.

Every manner of evil is usually spoken of deliverance ministers by Christians. Remember the controversies charged that Jesus Himself is demon possessed.

“And many of them said he hath a devil; why hear ye him?" (Jn. 10:20).

“Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil," (Jn. 8:48 then read 52)?

"The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil; who goeth about to kill thee," (Jn. 7:20).

Mark has four incidents (Mk. 1:23-28; 5:1-20: 7:24-30; 9:14 - 29).

Jesus entered the synagogue at Capernaum and began to teach (Lk. 4:33-37).

When the Word of God is taught, coupled with the power of the Holy Spirit, evil spirits must surface.

"A man in the synagogue at Capernaum and had an unclean spirit.  He cried out, saying, 'What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God,” (Mk. 1:24).

MINISTRY SHOULD NEVER BE ENTERED INTO LIGHTLY

It is a deep work that one has to be totally submitted to the Holy Spirit.

It is a work of God in a person's life. It operates exactly like the doctrines of Salvation, and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit the person's will is involved one must want to be free to be delivered because God will not step over the will of a human being.

The first principle is that the person's will, must get into an agreement with the will of God. The name of Jesus cannot coerce the human will, Jesus never violated the human will neither can a deliverance minister.

"But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you," (Matt. 12:28).

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF DEMONS DWELLING INSIDE A PERSON

Emotional Problems -- Disturbances in the emotions which persist or reoccur. Some common ones: resentment, hatred, anger, fear, rejection, self-pity, jealousy, depression, worry, inferiority, insecurity.

Mental problems – Disturbances in the mind or thought life. Come common ones: Mental torment, procrastination, (put off), indecision, compromise, confusion, doubt, rationalization, and loss of memory. Mental life (soul), seeks to dominate the spirit.

Speech Problems -- Outbursts or uncontrolled use of the tongue, lying, cursing, blasphemy, criticism, mockery, railing, gossip.

Sex Problems -- Unclean thoughts that recur regarding sex; fantasy sex, fantasy sex experiences; masturbation, lust, perversions, homosexuality, fornication, adultery, incest, harlotry, provocativeness.

Addictions Nicotine, alcohol, drugs, medicines, caffeine, food, diet pills, diet regimes you cannot come off; Pepsi, coke.

Physical infirmities— many diseases, and physical afflictions are due to spirits of infirmity, When a demon of infirmity is cast, there is often the need to pray for a healing of whatever damage has been done.

Always recognize, refuse and ignore imagination.

Religious Error— Involvement to any degree in religious error can open the door.

False religion— eastern, pagan religions, and philosophies and mind sciences, Yoga, Karate, Jujitsu, and all the marital arts.

Anti-Christian Cults— Mormonism, Jehovah’ Witness, Witness Lee Christian Science, Unity, Rosicrucian’s, Theosophy, Messianic Jewish Roots Movement and many more. All those who deny the necessity of the Blood of Jesus as the way of atonement for sin and salvation; some cults include certain lodges, societies and social agencies, such as, Masonry, and all cults that use the Bible but deny the deity of Jesus Christ and His blood atonement.

Occult & Spiritism, Séances. Witchcraft, magic, Ouija boards, levitation, palmistry, handwriting analysis, divination, automatic handwriting, EST, horoscope, astrology, and any method of seeking supernatural power or wisdom or guidance or knowledge apart from God is forbidden, (Deut. 18:9-15).

False Doctrine Timothy warns of a great increase of doctrinal error promoted by deceiving spirits and seducing spirits in the last days. They are sent to attack both the humanity and deity of Jesus. They will deny the inspiration of the Scripture. They will distract Christians from the move of the Spirit. They will cause disunity in the body of Jesus Christ. They will cause confusion in the Church through strange doctrines. They will foster emphasis on fleshly activities as a gateway to the supernatural.

“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth,” (I Tim. 4:1-3).

Chapter Seven

Casting out Devils

JESUS CAST OUT DEMONS

“Jesus said that the works that I do, you will do also and greater,” (Jn.  14:12). One third of the Lord’s ministry involved the casting out of demons. Today many church leaders seem to detest ministers who deliver the possessed forgetting that The FULL GOSPEL is a balanced Gospel which includes the compassionate deliverance ministry of Jesus.

“The spirit of the Lord is upon me because he  hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the  poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach DELIVERANCE TO THE CAPTIVES, and recovering of sigh to the blind, to SET AT LIBERTY THEM THAT ARE BRUISED,” (Lk.  4:18). The Bible reveals great percentage of Jesus’ ministry included deliverance of the demon possessed.

“He went throughout all Galilee preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons,” (Mk. 1:39).

Jesus cast devils out.

Jesus is our example!

FOUR GOSPELS CITE JESUS CASTING DEVILS OUT

The gospels of Mark, Matthew, and Luke all have descriptions that center in on Jesus ability to cure those who were demon possessed; only the gospel of John lacks narratives of this material.

Controversies are charged that Jesus --- Himself is demon possessed.

“And many of them said, “he hath a devil. Why hear ye him?” (Jn. 10:20).

“Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, say we not well that thou art a Samarian, and hast a devil?” (Jn. 8:48).

“The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil; who goeth about to kill thee,” (Jn. 7:20).

Mark has four incidents:

(Mk. 1:23-28), “And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, saying, let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him. And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, what thing is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him. And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.”

(Mk. 5:1-20), “And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, what have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And he asked him, what is thy name? And he answered, saying, my name is Legion: for we are many. And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. And all the devils besought him, saying; Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand ;) and were choked in the sea. And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done. And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine. And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts. And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him. Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord have done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee. And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

(Mk. 7:24-30), “And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but he could not be hid. For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet: The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.  But Jesus said unto her, let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs. And he said unto her, for this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter. And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.”

(Mk. 9:14-29), “And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them. And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him. And he asked the scribes, what question ye with them? And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit; and wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not. He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me. And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. And he asked his father, how long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, of a child. And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do anything, have compassion on us, and help us. Jesus said unto him, if thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead. But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, why could not we cast him out?  And he said unto them, this kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

Jesus entered the synagogue at Capernaum and began to teach.

(Lk. 4:33-37), “And in the synagogue there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice, saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God. And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of him, and hurt him not. And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, what a word is this! for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out. And the fame of him went out into every place of the country round about.”

When the Word of God is taught coupled with the power of the Holy Spirit, evil spirits must surface.  A man in the synagogue at Capernaum and had an unclean spirit. “He cried out, saying, ‘What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, The Holy One of God.”

Notice: the demon spoke to Jesus first.

Demons knew who He was.

It knew He had authority over them.

It stated what it knew.

Word of God taught coupled with power of Holy Spirit.

Evil spirits must surface.

JESUS WAS NOT A DEMON HUNTER.

Demons simply could not remain hidden in His presence. When they manifested, the demon would speak. The demons try to engage Jesus in a conversation. The demon would many times use flatter trying to divert the Lord’s attention from his deliverance.

“I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God,” (Mk. 1:24).

The Lord looked beyond the words and rebuked him saying, “Hold thy peace and come out of him,” (Mk.1:25).

“...and when the unclean spirit had to obey him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him,” (Mk.1:26).

His teaching caused wonder among the people, “for he was teaching them as one have authority . . .  even the unclean spirits obey him,” (Mk.1:27).

The function of deliverance for Mark therefore is to drive home the point about the authority of Jesus teaching. The story itself is told with classic simplicity.

The demons challenge to Jesus, (Mk.1: 23).

Rebuke and exorcism, (Mk. 1:24)

Departure of the unclean spirit, (Mk.1:25).

Response of the onlookers, (Mk.1:26).

Unclean spirit is inspired, he “knows something about Jesus and speaks what he knows in the spirit,” (Mk. 1:23). The inspiration is by an “unclean spirit”.

SUPERNATURAL FORCES MUST BE DISCERNED

There are two supernatural sources’ supernatural things must be discerned.  It is the unclean spirit, not Jesus that initiates the confrontation.  It is the afflicted man who utters the words but in reality they are not words of a man but of a man possessed by an unclean spirit.

Twice in (Mk. 1:24), the use of the plural “Us” makes it clear that the real speaker is indeed the demon. Plural indicate that the man is possessed by more than one demon. Only that the demon speaks as one of a class of beings sharing common fears of destruction at His hands. The demon addresses Jesus with a singular verb, “I know who you are . . .” and in turn is addressed with singular pronoun and imperative.

The word of God declares people can be bound by Satan:

“And others, tempting him, sought of him a sign from heaven. But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth. If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? Because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub. And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore shall they be your judges. But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:  But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils,” (Lk. 13:11, 16).

OPPRESSED BY THE DEVIL

“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him,” (Acts 10:38).

VEXED WITH UNCLEAN SPIRITS

“There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed everyone,” (Acts 5:16.)

DEMONS CAUSE

Dumbness

"As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil. 33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marveled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel,” (Matt. 9:32-33).

Blindness (Matt. 12:22), Insanity (Lk. 8:26-35), Suicidal Mania (Mk. 9:22), Personal injuries (Mk. 9:18)

Inflict Physical defects and deformities, (Lk. 13:11-17).

Once they get control over a human body they can come and go at will, (Lk. 11:24-26).

The character shows “demons” is seen in the use they make of their victims. Instruments of unrighteousness… (Rom 6:13).

Proclamation of “doctrines of devils… (1 Tim 4:2).

Teaching Damnable heresies… (II Pet 2:1).

The effect: unmoral and immoral.

Leads to vicious and inhuman conduct

Demon takes possession of for purpose of physical sensual gratification, sins of sensuality: nudity, lustful and licentious thoughts, immodesty, doctrines of devils.

Demons alienate husband and wife and break up homes.

Demons for personal gratification:

Has the power once he is in control of his victim, to rearrange both mind and body.

He is able to wreck health, mind and spirit.

God sets us free from sickness, as we claim that freedom, (Psa. 91:14-16).

We can become entangled again, (Heb. 10:26-27).

There is a difference between a demon possessing a person, (Jn. 13:27).

A person possessing a demon, (Mk. 9:17)

There is a difference between the Holy Spirit filling a person.

(Eph. 3:19) and a person having the Holy Spirit, (Rom. 8:9), Stages of influence, Temptation, (Jam. 1:12),  (Normal), Torment, (Hebr. 12:15), (Oppression), Control (Acts 5:3), (Possession)

God has put certain restrictions upon Satan’s efforts.

God never allows us to be tempted beyond our ability to endure and triumph, (Cor. 10:13).

Satan is limited in his power in that he must request permission of God to come against us, (Job 1:12).

Why does God allow temptation?

Overcoming is to “perfect” us, or to make us complete, (Job 23:10).

(Godly typifies the divine nature and character. (Jam. 1:1-4).

Choice: either to overcome by God’s grace or yield to it in sin.

The reward for victory over will be the crown of life. (Jam.  1:12).

The result of defeat under temptation is death, (Ezek. 18:4; Jam. 2:15).

Overcome by faith, (I Pet. 5:9; I Jn. 5:44).

God Judges the Heart!

Lust, sin, death

FALLING INTO TRAPS

Sadly, Christians are falling into the traps of Satan through their trust of wealthy, prominent, religious men and women who no longer preach Jesus Christ or the Bible such as Third Wave Theology; Once Saved Always Saved, OSAS and even some false deliverance ministers. We must make sure those who minister to us are true ministers, saved, Bible believers, who carefully handle the Word of God and keeping Jesus at the center.

In these last days many Christians have not had their mind renewed through the Word of God. They have not been sanctified through the purifying blood of Jesus. Their faith centers on Christian icons instead of Jesus Christ and His purpose of giving them salvation to enter into His Kingdom. He never taught us to seek a kingdom on this earth that is calling all religions to come into religious unity.

So many in the Christian Church have become cold and lukewarm and they have given their minds over to forms of Better Homes and Garden and Disney World Christianity and lifestyles that are just seeking after material things and emotional experiences. Jesus is rarely preached, (Rom. 10:17), “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”

Are you listening to preaching that consists of stories about the minister, his or her family experiences, or you giving to them so that you can get some money to increase your depleted bank account?

Many of these preachers are living sumptuously like kings and queens in multi-million dollar homes while you sit overwhelmed by debt.  I’m telling you, that you are NOT listening to the real gospel. Repent for seeking after God the Father as a sugar daddy instead of the God that sent His Divine Son Jesus to save you from your sins to give you eternal life. Rededicate your life to Jesus and ask Him where you can go to receive the true Gospel.

The Bible warns, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God,”  (Rom. 12:2).

FORMS OF GODLINESS - DENYING THE POWER

When Jesus said, “upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it,” (Mk. 16:16); he was saying that the church as an institution is here to stay; (Satan cannot destroy the true church). The members of the church must be vigilant and careful guardians of His Word. They must be passionate about His cause. They must be crushed for people in the valley of decision.  The Bibles says, “Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision,” (Joel 3:14).

Christians must put a guard their minds. If you walk on Satan’s territory is an invitation for the devil to come in and this is also true of doctrines of demons. If a Christian entertains false doctrines, they will be open for demonic attack and you must place a guard on your mouth and on your mind!

“And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to usward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, which he wrought in Christ when he raised him from the dead and set him at His own right hand in the heavenly places,” (Eph.1:19).

DEMONIC POWER

Our Ministry has seen many Christians who are bound by demonic powers. If they are seeking religious experiences to feel good, they can be open to receive evil spirits. If they live double lives, unholy, without true commitments to the Lord, they will be demonized. If they find themselves under a religious cult, they will need deliverance. If they are following a person, instead of being led by Jesus Christ and His Word, they will receive spirits of religious confusion, Antichrist, rebellion, idolatry, and many others.

“The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying, Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: 3 Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee: With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures: By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches: Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God; Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness. They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas. Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee. Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God,” (Ezek. 28:1-10).

DISCERNMENT OF GOOD AND EVIL

There is a danger that some people will attribute all personal problems to the activity of evil spirits. Each of the extremes from total ignorance to indiscriminate labeling is undesirable and harmful to the cause of Christ.

People must deal with sin in the flesh, mind and the spirit.  A person's will close the door to demonic activity.  One must choose who to follow each day.

We see three identifying marks of evil spirits. They enslave, they defile, they torment.

If one has renounced evil and committed his life to Christ but has still not found peace, could be due to the influence of evil spirits. The sooner one recognizes this force and accepts the right way of being freed, the sooner one can return to a normal peaceful existence.

Satan attacks the personality: attitudes and emotions. Oppression leads to all types of mental disturbances; sex oppression leads to obsessing urges - perversion, etc. Appetites and desires which are under the influence of evil spirits develop into addictions to food, alcohol, tobacco, pills, drugs, etc. - religious beliefs and experiences, including contact with the spiritual world through channels other than faith in the atonement of Jesus Christ. In the last area, many professing Christians have disobeyed God's Word to avoid sorcery  and have become involved in contacts with mediums, fortune-telling, horoscopes, Ouija boards, E S.P., etc. The influence of an evil spirit almost invariably brings upon the person, visitations by apparitions, noises, etc. by continuing such contacts.

Chapter Eight

Discerning of Demons

DECEIVING SPIRITS

There is an alarming onslaught of deceiving spirits attacking the Church of Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul reveals these special manifestations of evil spirits through prophecies that point to the deception of Christian believers in the latter times. These deceptions are showing up in the supernatural realms. Many are following teaching ministers that are sending forth an army of teaching spirits that are leading people away from their biblically based spiritual knowledge of Jesus Christ.

Nevertheless, spiritual blindness and through lack of knowledge, many are not able to carry out a full war against this army of wicked spirits. Many are shrinking from the subject of demons and call the war against them not credible. They believe that if Jesus Christ is preached, it is not necessary to give attention to the existence of the devil. They think that they can ignore him. (Jam. 4:7-8), "Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you."

Many Christians have never been taught the power of Jesus Christ. They believe that they never enter into direct conflict with Satan and his hosts. The church has actually been blinded by the powers of darkness and multitudes are being bound. Scriptural answers are not practiced in the lives of the people.

DECEPTION

The Holy Ghost inspired Apostle Paul warned us: “Let no one deceive you,” (II Thess. 2:3). It is clear that Christians can be vulnerable to deception and we must not forget it. We must be on guard and protect ourselves against deception. There are those who deliberately cobble together doctrines of devils to cause Christians to believe things that are not true. These false ministers are everywhere in the religious world. We must be alert.

The Spirit of God revealed to John in a vision that in the last days, demon spirits would be released upon the earth which would go forth to deceive the entire world.  (Rev 16:13-14),“And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.” These three spirits that John saw represent lying, deceiving, seducing demon spirits that are going to be released by Satan. “For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty,” (Rev. 16:14).

The Body of Christ will face the most ungodly, Satanic - demonic confrontation greater than at any other time in history during these last days. It will be a time of intensified spiritual warfare where demons will manifest themselves and will stand in direct confrontation with God’s people.

The Christian Church has slept through the occult witchcraft revival of the seventies, eighties, nineties that has continued until the present time. The darkness has entered the American Churches in many manifestations and forms. Many leaders do not discern the bewitchments because they mainly do not believe that witchcraft even exists! It is time that the Church shakes itself out of the spiritual stupor that it finds itself and seek the Lord. The Church has become so fragmented it seems that Satan’s army is forging ahead with Satan’s well-organized plan to bring the entire world into rebellion against God! This is just fulfillment of end time prophecy of the Bible.

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many,” (Matt. 24:4-5).

[Take heed] (Matt. 24:4).  Jesus, in reply to their question, first gives them a caution to beware of deception. They were to be constantly on their guard, because many would arise to deceive the people.

[Many shall come in my name] Not in the name or by the authority of Jesus, or claiming to be HIS followers, and to be sent by him, but in the name of the Messiah, or claiming to be the Messiah.

[I am Christ] (Matt 24:5), “I am the Messiah.”  The Messiah was expected at that time, (Matt 2:1-2). Many would lay, claims to being the Messiah, and, as He was universally expected, multitudes would easily be led to believe in them. There is abundant evidence that this was fully accomplished.

The historian, Josephus informs us that there were many who pretended to divine inspiration; that deceived the people, leading out numbers of them into the desert. "The land," says He "was overrun with magicians, seducers, and impostors, who drew the people after them in multitudes into solitudes and deserts, to see I the signs and miracles which they promised to show by the power of God." Among these are mentioned particularly Dositheus, the Samaritan, who affirmed that He was Christ; Simon Magus, who said He appeared among the Jews as the Son of God; and Theudas, who persuaded many to go with him to the river Jordan, to see the waters divided. The names of 24 false Messiahs are recorded as having appeared between the time of the Emperor Adrian and the year 1682.

The Church will have a continual conflict with infinite miseries and offences; furthermore, with false prophets, until the day of victory and triumph comes.

Deception tries to deceive by appearing like the real thing; however, some no longer can perceive what the real Christian faith is. Christianity is more than seeking God for favor for getting things. Jesus is the center of the Gospel. His Word is the avenue to God’s throne. Many teachers have needed to be taught.  One of Martin Luther’s favorite sayings was “mundus vult decipi” — the world wants to be deceived. In the first chapter of the book of Zephaniah, the Lord charges and convicts both the people and the corrupt leaders they followed indicates the same: “Your prophets have seen for you false and deceptive visions; They have not uncovered your iniquity, to bring back your captives, but have envisioned for you false prophecies and delusions,” (Lam. 2:14).

The words deceit, deceitful, deceitfully, deceitfulness and deceive are used again and again in the Bible. It is one of the major themes; you are warned in Scripture about being deceived. There are numerous warnings about the exploiters and purveyors of deceit. The underlying Greek words for deceit cover everything from self-deceit to the practice of deceit by unprincipled religious teachers and con artists. You are warned repeatedly and must be ready.

“But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.”(II Cor. 11:3-4, 13-14).

Deceit is defined as: “The act of representing as true what is known to be false; a deceiving or lying. 1. A dishonest action or trick; fraud or lie; 2. The quality of being deceitful…”

British scholar, W. E. Vine defines the Greek words apate and dolos that underlie the various English words for deceit: “APATE  . . .  to cheat, deceive, beguile, that which gives a false impression, whether by appearance, statement or influence  . . .  In (Col.. 2:8), ‘vain deceit’ suggests that deceit is void of anything profitable . . .  DOLOS  . . .  primarily a bait, snare; hence, craft, deceit, guile.” The Apostle Paul warns, “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ,” (Col, 2:8).

I have been personally in the miracle deliverance ministry since 1975 and discovered that radio is a powerful instrument to get the gospel out. Many people have been freed by casting demons out on the radio. I do it simply speaking the name of Jesus and then discerning of spirits by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. I question the inquiring person about their spiritual backgrounds to establish their whether they are born again and their need for deliverance. Then I command the demons to leave and cage them. The demons must obey the name of Jesus, His authority and Word by the authority that He gives to me and any other Believer according to Eph. Chapter One.

"0 foolish Galatians who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified? This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?  Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh” (Gal. 3: 1, 2).

DISCERNING OF SPIRITS

Discerning of Demons" The New Testament Greek word for demon is daimonion in the KJV often translated 'devil.' Associated in the New Testament with the noun daimonion is the passive verb daimonizomai. The literal meaning of this verb is 'to be demoned,' that is, in some way under the influence or power of demons. In the KJV this verb is usually translated by some phrase such as 'to be possessed' or 'to be vexed' by demons or by evil spirits. However, there is no distinction in the original Greek text to support these (translated) distinctions. “Expelling Demons,” Derek Prince

NINE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

"For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same spirit; to another faith by the same spirit; to another gifts of healing by the same spirit; to another working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; but all these worketh that one and the selfsame spirit . . .  " (I Cor. 12:8- 11).

What is the gift of Discerning of Spirits? It is supernatural insight into the realm of spirits.  The discerning of spirits gives one the power to see supernaturally into the spirit sphere.  God is a Spirit, Holy Spirit. "You can't look on my face, but I am going to hide you in the cleft of the rock and put my hand over your face, and I am going to pass by and let you see my back parts," (Exod. 33:22). Moses was seeing into the spirit realm. He discerned the likeness of God.

The prophet Isa. also saw the Lord.  "In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up . . ." (Isa. 6:1).

SATAN RULER SPIRIT OF DEMONS

Satan is called the "ruler of the demons"; (Matt. 9:34; 12:24; Mk. 3:22; Lk. 11:15); (Gk. archonti ton daimonion). Satan is also a spirit who rules over DEMONS (Gk. daimon, and its derivative daimonion).  This was used once in the New Testament in (Acts 17:18).  They are "foreign gods"; "deities," for deity, but this is usually referring to the ministers of the devil, (Lk. 4:35; 9:1, 42; Jn. 10:21). These are inferior spirit beings, Satan's angels who "did not keep their own domain," (Jude 6; Matt. 25:41; Rev. 12:7, 9).

“The manifestation of the Holy Spirit is given to every man to profit. To one is given by the (Holy) Spirit he word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Holy Spirit; to another faith by the same (Holy) Spirit. To another gifts of healing by the same Holy Spirit; to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another DISCERNING OF (between good and evil) SPIRITS; to another the interpretation of tongues; all these works (are from) that one and same Holy Spirit,” (I Cor. 12:7-11).

According to the Word of God, demons enter into the body of a person to vex him with diseases, (Matt. 9:33; 17:18; Lk. 4:35, 41; 8:30, 32-33), and person was possessed by a demon when he suffered from some exceptionally severe disease (4:33; 8:27). Several were shown as possessed and acted and spoke as though mad (Matt. 11:18; Lk. 7:33; Jn. 7:20).

How can discernment of doctrine be learned? It is learned by experience, and it comes with spiritual maturity, (Heb. 5:14). Any person who truly desires to do the will of God, "shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God." (Jn. 7:17; Neh. 6:12-14). The Bible tells us that The Holy Spirit is the Administer of the Church of Jesus and He "will guide you into all truth, for He is our Teacher, (Jam. 16:13; 14:26; I Cor. 2:15; I Jn. 2:27). We can be trained to discern truth from error through sound teaching and knowledge of the scriptures, (Heb. 4:12; 11; 1Tim. 3:14 -16; Eze. 44:23).

Paul made an astonishing statement in his letter to the church in Corinth. "It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife." (I Cor. 5:1). A son had taken his stepmother away from his father and was living with her in sin.  Paul said, " . . . When ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, to  deliver such an  one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit  may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus," (I Cor. 4,5). He was saying, "My spirit is going to be there. I am going to see what you do."

NEW TESTAMENT COMPREHENSION OF THE HUMAN

The Bible shows that Jesus was able to understand their thoughts. He could supernaturally “see” them.  “But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, what reason ye in your hearts?” (Lk. 5:22). And then, “But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?” (Lk. 20:23). “When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone,” (Jn. 6:15). Jesus was moving in the gift of discerning spirits. In these cases, Jesus was discerning the intentions of their hearts being motivated by their human spirits.

This perception of discerning the human spirit was shown as an operating gift in the apostles. “Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus,” (Acts 4:13), “But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the  council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of  the dead I am called in question,” (Acts 23:6).

SPIRITUAL REALMS ARE REAL

Do you believe in a real Devil as described in the Bible?  Some think that the devil is just a leftover remnant Bible?  Some think that the devil is just leftover remnant from the Middle Ages. Others believe he is a myth, the he doesn’t really exist. What do you believe?

The word ANGEL (Hebrew mal`ak; Greek angelos, both meaning "messenger").  In some cases the word is applied to human beings (Mal. 2:7; Rev. 1:20). Figuratively to impersonal agents (Prov. 14:19; II Sam. 24:16-17; Psa. 104:4). The connection must determine its force.  In its most common use in Scripture, the word nevertheless designates certain spiritual and superhuman beings who are introduced to us as messengers of God.

Do you know that angels’ appearance can vary?  Some can take on a human appearance. These are commonly referred to as "guardian angels." Scripture indicates these angels are assigned to protect humans (Exod. 23:20; Psa. 91:11-12; Matt. 18:10). When the angel escorted Peter out of prison (Acts 12:8-16).

We find an interesting spiritual parallel. When Peter arrived at the home of John Mark's mother, many were gathered to pray. Upon hearing that Peter was at the door, Scripture says they assumed it was Peter's angel. But it was actually Peter!

HIGH PRIEST STANDING BEFORE THE LORD

In Joshua the high priest we see a picture of each and every child of God, who has been made nigh by the blood of Christ, and has been taught to minister in holy things, and enter into that which is within the veil, (Zech. 3:1).  Jesus has made us priests and kings unto God, and even here upon earth we exercise the priesthood of consecrated living and hallowed service. But this high priest is said to be "standing before the angel of the Lord," that is, standing to minister. This should be the perpetual position of every true believer.

The prophet Isaiah. insures us that the Lord will mount up a standard against the Devil. “So will they fear the name of the Lord from the west and East. His glory from the rising of the sun; when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift a standard against Him,” (Isa. 59:1).

DEMONIC SPIRITS

The devil or Satan is presented to us as a being that fights God and His work. (See Gen. 3:1; Rom. 15:22.)  He is the “god of this world,” who blinds the minds of the people to the truths of God’s Word (II Tim. 4:4; Eph. 2:2). Having rebelled against God, he was cast out of heaven; then he caused man’s fall in paradise. Jesus calls him often as an “angel of light” (II Tim. 11:14), seeking the ruin triumphed over him at the Cross of Calvary (I Jn. 3:8) and in His resurrection, and he will finally be condemned and destroyed (Rev. 20).  There are many orders of demons and they strike people in diverse ways (see Matt. 12:22, 17:15-18; Lk. 12:16).  Also, they bring false doctrine (I Tim. 4:1-4), trying to seduce the elect (Matt. 24:24), oppressing (Acts 10:38), obsessing, and possessing people. They know Jesus, and acknowledge His power and tremble (Matt. 8:29). For them, hell is the final destination, as it is for Satan.

POSSESSED OPPRESSED

“When evening came, any who were demon-POSSESSED (demonized) were brought to Him, and He drove out the (evil) spirits with a word and healed ALL the sick,” ((Matt. 8:16-17)).This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed," (Isa. 53:5).

(Matt. 8:28-32), In the country of the Gergesenes there met HIM two men POSSESSED WITH DEVILS (demonized) coming out of the tomb, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way. They cried out, saying, "What have we to do with YOU, JESUS, YOU son of GOD? Have YOU come here to torment us before the time?" There was a long way off from them a herd of many swine feeding. The DEVILS sought HIM, saying, "If YOU cast us out, allow us to go away into the herd of swing." HE said to them, "Go." When they were come out, they went into the herd of swine. The whole herd of pigs ran violently down a steep place into the sea and perished.

(Matt. 9:32-33), “They brought to HIM a dumb man possessed with a devil (demonized). When the devil was cast out, the dumb spoke; The multitudes marveled, saying, "It was never so seen in Israel."

(Matt. 12:22), “Then was brought to HIM one POSSESSED WITH A DEVIL (demonized), blind and dumb. HE healed him, so much that the blind and dumb man both spoke and saw.”

(Matt. 17:14-21), “There came to HIM a certain man, kneeling down to HIM and saying, "LORD, have mercy on my son, for he is a LUNATIC and sore vexed; often he falls into the fire and often into the water. I brought him to YOUR disciples and they could not cure him. Then JESUS answered, "O faithless and perverse generation; how long shall I be with you? How long shall I endure you? Bring him here to ME." Jesus rebuked the DEVIL. He departed out of him. The child was cured from that very hour. Then the disciples took JESUS aside and said, "Why could we not cast him out?" Jesus said, "Because of your unbelief. I say to you, 'If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, 'Remove here to there', and it shall move. Nothing shall be impossible to you. However, this kind goes not out, but by prayer and fasting."

(Mk. 1:32-34), “They brought to Him all who were sick and those who were DEMON-POSSESSED (demonized). The whole city was gathered together at the door. He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He did not allow the demons to speak.”

(Lk. 8:35-36), “They went out to see what was done, came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind. They were’ afraid. They also, who saw it, told them by what means he was POSSESSED OF THE DEVILS (demonized) was healed.”

Christians must be prepared and equipped for spiritual warfare. From the earliest times men wore and used devices for the protection of the body in battle.

The apostle Paul spoke of the armor in a figurative sense, with reference to righteousness as a protection to the follower of God against the assaults of evil or temptation. They take upon themselves the whole armor of God, Helmet, Salvation; Breastplate, Righteousness; Girded Loins, Truth; Shod Feet; Shield, Faith, (Eph. 6:13-17).Shows what wonderful provisions’ God has made for His warriors.

1.  Christians must be on the defensive (Matt. 26:41).

2.  You must be anointed! (Matt. 3:16), you must fast! (Matt. 4:2).

3.  You must quote the Word!  (Matt. 4:4, 7, 10).

4.  You must command the devil! (Matt. 4:10).

5.  You are the one that has to drive the devil to flight, (Jam. 4:7).

Jesus said in (Matt. 12:23-33). Satan is not going to allow anyone to destroy his work without putting up very strong counteraction. His control must first be neutralized before Christians can release his captives. Jesus asks this penetrating question, “How can anyone enter a strongman’s house and carry off his possession unless he first ties up the strongman?” “Then Jesus told us that we could enter his house,” (Matt. 12:29). The King James Bibles reads, “bind the strongman.”

1.  Indeed, binding the strong man is the first basic PRINCIPLE of spiritual warfare.

2.  In fact, before any warfare opposing powers and principalities and wicked rulers and evil spirits can be won to release the nation, cities, individual, family, the strongman must be defeated, (Matt. 18: 18. 19, 20).

Once Satan’s power is bound, Jesus enters freely enters into his house and carries off Satan’s possessions.

1.  The territory is delivered and Satan loses control.

2.  The Greek word for spoil occurs in two forms, Diapazo and harapzo, which means “an intensive spoiling, plunder and snatching away.”

3.  In (Lk. 11-22), the Greek word Skulon, conveys “arms stripped from a foe.” Putting it simply, Satan is stripped of his weapons, (Lk. 11:21,22).

5.  The Greek word Deo means literally ties or fasten, to arrest or paralyze; the Christian reclaims everything that he has stolen.

6.  Another words, Christians aggressively binding the power of demons and prohibits them from the carry-forward their assignments.

TRUE CHRISTIAN AUTHORITY

When a true believing Christian uses the authority that Jesus left for His Church, Satan must obey. Demons don't have a choice. They tremble and run when we talk and agree with the Word of God. It is God's will for you to be free from every evil influence of the devil.

Name of our Lord Jesus Christ

Provisions made by His Word

Through the blood of Jesus

Through His delegated authority

Through the power of the Holy Ghost.

SUPERNATURAL WARFARE

The clash between Satan and Jesus Son of God in the first Gospel is an ongoing one. Satan is characterized as "the strong man" and Jesus, the Son of God, in that He casts out demons by the Holy Spirit and brings people into the sphere of God's reign as the one who "binds" Satan and "plunders his goods" (Matt. 12; 28-29 cf. also 8:39). Conversely, Satan and those who do his bidding are depicted as “doing violence to the kingdom of heaven as plundering it,” (Matt. 11:12). A case in point, is Satan's enlistment of Peter in an effort to put Jesus at cross-purposes with his Father and to turn him away from the path that leads to the cross, (Matt. 16:21-23).

It is precisely to fend off onslaughts of Satan such as this that Jesus teaches his disciples to pray (Matt. 6:13), "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one" or (from evil). On another level, Satan also exercises his malevolent will against Jesus through the Israelite crowds, (Matt. 11:16; 12:29, 16: 4), and their leaders', (Matt. 16:1; 19:2; 22:18. 35; 23, 15); who asks Jesus for a sign or who tempt Him, not the least while he is hanging on the cross, (Matt. 27:39-42).

Indeed through a parable of Jesus, Matthew makes the programmatic observation that Satan is the personal "enemy" of Jesus Messiah, who has usurped in Israel the allegiance that is due Jesus alone, (Matt. 13:24-30). Nevertheless, as the story of the temptation at the beginning of the Gospel adumbrates, the repeated attacks of Satan are not sufficient to induce Jesus to divest himself of His divine Son ship and to bring Him from his mission, (Matt. 16:21).

CHRISTIAN’S POWER OF ATTORNEY

It is vital for the Christian believer to trust the gospel the gospel and everything it teaches, (II Tim. 3:16-17), “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.”

Has the pre-eminence in all things.

(I Cor. 11:3), “But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.”

(Eph. 1:22), “And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church…”

(Col. 1:18), “And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.”

“For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God,” (I Cor. 1: 17, 18).

Repentance and renunciation of the occult, New Age, cult experiences, and witchcraft, fornication, adultery, pornography and all known sin, (Acts 1:4-14)

(Acts 26:18), “To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me…”

(II Cor. 6:16-18), “And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.  And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.”

Obedience to God and His Holy Word and seeking for power of the Holy Spirit:

(Lk. 11:13), “If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”

(Lk. 24:49), “And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.”

(Acts 1:4-14), “And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? And he said unto them, it is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; which also said, ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a Sabbath day's journey. And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James. These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.”

(Acts 2:38-39), “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.  For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call…”

(Acts 5:320, “And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.”

Total Submission to God – Walk in and Live in the Spirit

(Rom. 8:1-2), “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit;  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.”

(Rom. 8:10), “And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness…”

(Rom. 8:15-18), “For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.”

(Gal. 5:16-26), “This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.  But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.  Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,  Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.  If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.”

(Col. 3:16-18), “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.”

PRAY IN FAITH

(Jam. 5:1-8), “Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Behold the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields which are of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you. Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.”

(Heb. 11:6), “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

KNOW YOUR POSITION IN CHRIST

Commissioned His Apostles

(Matt. 10:1), “And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.”

(Matt. 28:19), “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost…”

(Jn. 20:21), “Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.”

(Eph. 2:5-9), “Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved);  And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God; not of works, lest any man should boast.”

DEMON CONSCIOUSNESS

Don't become Demon conscious - Become Jesus Christ centered.

"For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf; yet I would have you side unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly," (Rom. 16:19, 20).

Paul urges the Church wisdom regarding that which is good; he suggests that the Christian maintain simple position about evil. The Christian must recognize that he cannot fully describe or define the scope of God in neither His grace nor the depths of Satan’s wickedness.

Deliverance is about cleaning, rebuilding faith in Jesus … and being free from the torments of devils. It’s not about devils and their power and their name and their legal grounds. Demons must obey God’s superior authority when a Saint who is walking in authority as a believer, the demons has no legal grounds when a person becomes repentant, forgiven and born again.  Demons are compelled by spiritual law of God TO OBEY THE NAME OF JESUS AND obey and leave!

The demon is arrested and caged and sent to Jesus to be judged before the demons time. He is a trespasser and a robber. The deliverance minister has the authority to bring to an end to his evil activities because he has broken the spiritual law of attacking God’s property, who has been bought with the price of the Blood of Jesus. However, the deliverance minister does not have God given authority to judge the demon by commanding him to go to hell. Jesus is the final Judge!  Deliverance is about Jesus’ name and His power to cleanse and make a person free and whole.  Jn. 8:36, "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."

The person that has received deliverance is freed by the power of the name of Jesus and the redemptive power of His blood. The delivered person must immediately totally sell out and follow Jesus.

YES, YOU CAN BE FREE!

(Lk. 4:18), “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.”

It’s a fellowship with Jesus Christ...  Nothing gives the believer so much joy as fellowship with Christ. The joy of the Lord is solid and enduring; no wine can rival the love of Jesus. Let us drink to the full this evening.

“And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee,” (Deut. 7:13).

Chapter Nine

Avoid Heresy

THE SPIRIT OF ERROR

The Apostle Paul tells us in (I Cor. 11: 19), “There must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you"; why God allows heresy to dwell in the midst of His Church. Paul says if you are a true believer, you will be able to discern the real from the false! Give God glory for it is a gift to be able to discern good from evil. God’s Word and His anointing are standards that place our faith on firm foundations. It is by means of iniquity (self-will) that the root of error takes control.

The Greek word, heresy, according to Liddell and Scott, means taking for oneself, choosing, or choice. The things chosen, and so plan, purpose a course of action or thought; from this we get a philosophic principle, a sect, and a heresy.[16]

Webster's International Dictionary defines Heresy: Adherence to a religious opinion that contrary to an established dogma of a church; dissent from a dominant theory or opinion in any field group or school of thought centering on a particular heresy.[17]

Therefore, heresy is not so much rejecting as selecting.  The heretic simply selects the part of the scriptures he or she wants to stress, and lets the rest go.  How prone we are to take to ourselves those parts of the truth that please us and ignore the other parts.  This is heresy!  Heresies are a direct result of an intellectual concept becoming crystallized into a religious system of teaching that is not Scriptural.  This is the case with the multifarious sects which divide Christendom today.

The book of Jude supplies us with a simple, straightforward summary of such sects, "These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit," (Jude 19).  Their philosophies are built, not on the full and glorious work of the Holy Spirit of God that exalts Jesus Christ, making His person the grand, central theme of their witness but on some sideline doctrine, which divides instead of uniting.

What are the "doctrines of devils”?  What is the result of a “spirit of error?”  Can a spirit of whoredom rule over a church?  The Apostle Paul warned Christians to beware of deceivers but also to take heed that he would not deceive himself (I Cor. 3:18).  Jesus also cautioned Believers to beware of self-deception in (Lk. 21:8).  From the beginning of the Church throughout its history, Satan has attacked by using evil deceivers. "Evil men and seducers shall wax worse, deceiving and being deceived," (II Tim. 3:13).

SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST

The spirit of the Antichrist has been in and at work in the world since the Resurrection of Christ.  Its main purpose is to work to defame, destroy the purity, power and purpose of Jesus Christ.  According to Jesus Christ Himself, Satan works through his ministers of darkness, the wolves in sheep's clothing!

There are many "wolves in sheep's clothing" these days whose chief purpose is to defame the name of Jesus Christ.  They work to lead people to doubt the Bible and depart from the true mission of the Church.  They use philosophy of men, mysticism, witchcraft, liberal cults, atheism and agnosticism to nullify and discredit the teaching of the Word of God.  They work diligently to get rid of Bible Doctrine.  These so-called "Christians,” by questioning the authority of the scriptures and the claims of the Savior are great signs of the eminent return of Jesus Christ!

GOSPEL MERCHANDISERS

The Church of Jesus Christ does not have ministers called "faith healers.”  Katherine Kuhlman used to say," I am not a faith healer; I am a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ." The Church does have true men and women who have the true gifts of the Holy Spirit who stand founded in the Word of God and the Authority of Jesus Christ.  The Church does have the power of Jesus, His Name and His Word. Unfortunately, where there is truth you will have those who are wolves in sheep's clothing. There are many so-called "faith healers" who camouflage themselves as Christians and use God's hurting people as merchandise to enhance their so-called ministries.  The Church must begin to see the real from the false and cleanse itself.

The merchandisers of God's people are sitting upon financial empires that will topple by the hand of God.  God's true anointed ministers have nothing to fear because the Lord will back them with great power to perform His work.  The world is looking but in the name of "unity" the church is accepting any error or personality that chooses to call itself "Christian.”  God help us in these days of darkness.

The seducers are on the move but the Church must bring to remembrance the warning of the Apostle Paul when he wrote: "There were false prophets also among the people even as there shall be false teachers among you, who shall be bring in damnable heresies . . .   " (II Pet. 2:1).

SEPARATE FROM THE PAGAN WORLD

The until it early history of the people of God describes, on the whole, a separated  nomadic race, having little or no contact with the pagan world around it, became incarcerated in Egypt. However, their aspirations for freedom and their hatred of the Egyptians meant they were reasonably free from the pagan influences of the Egyptians.  However, the battle really began when they were expatriated from Egypt.  Brought into the Promised Land; when they entered Canaan they came face to face for the first time with advanced forms of spiritual witchcraft wickedness. The Jews rightly labeled these rival religions 'demonic".

Moses knew that they were sacrificing to demons “which were no gods,” (Deut.   32:17) and they even at times sacrificed their sons and daughters (Psa. 106: 37).  There is no doubt that these pagan cults had a strong occulted and spiritualistic flavor. Sexual orgies, human sacrifices, powers of foretelling the future and revealing secrets, calling up the dead and other forms of mediumistic activity featured in these rites.  The Jews were correct they did have a demonic basis. These people were novices at spiritual warfare and they were living on the other side of the authority of Christ’s victory over these powers at Calvary.  In coming into contact with these overwhelming powers of darkness, the only remedy then was to destroy them root and branch.  When this was not done, then God’s people were very likely to succumb.

The Word “demon” (daimon) in classical Greek was frequently used to describe a god, or a paranormal spirit with divine power. It was sometimes used interchangeable with theos, meaning “god.” There was very little discrimination between good and evil.

Much of what is being taught about angels today has more to do with fallen angels (demons) than God’s holy angels. These fallen angels are impostors who pose as benevolent helpers. In reality foster spirituality without Christ and without God.

(II Cor. 11:14, 15), “As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.  Wherefore because I love you not, God knoweth?  But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.  For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”

In the beginning God created all the angels good and holy, just as God made and pronounced all His creation good Angels were subjected to a period of probation. Some angels kept their first estate (A state of holiness) while others did not (Jude 6). An angelic rebellion, headed by Lucifer, arose against God.

(Jude 6), “And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.”

Apparently, Lucifer had become so prideful and impressed with himself that he wanted to take God’s place and rebelled. One-third of the angels followed Lucifer in this rebellion, (Ezek. 28:11-19); Isa. 14:12-17; Rev. 12:10).  Following their expulsion from heaven, Lucifer’s name was changed to “Satan” (meaning “adversary”). The fallen angels became demons.

DEMONIZED PEOPLE ARE REAL

An hour or so in a room with a demonized person who is questioning manifesting demons will do a great deal to rearrange.  Cancel our many theological theories that have no basis in fact or Scripture. There is a desperate need now to bring the local churches of Jesus into a wartime footing. Paul wrote, "lest Satan should get an advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices”, (II Cor. 2-11).We are involved in warfare and victims are falling by the thousands.

E. J. Huegel says, "In the disparate conflict Christ waged, in which He lost His life, was He mistaken? Was it really 'the prince of this world' He had to face - a terrible supernatural being whose hate for God was as dark and as deep as hell?  Or was He deluded?  "That He believed in a personal devil whose dominion He came to shatter; That He commanded demons to come out of their victims; that He was convinced that if He were to save man He must show up the Prince of Darkness in his true light, and break his power over humans hearts; that He really believed these things, no student of the Scriptures would for a moment pretend to deny.[18]”

"Jesus went about ... healing all that were oppressed of the devil."

Owen C. Whitehouse, an avowedly advanced biblical critic concludes:   That Satan exists as a personal center of evil influence, physical as well as moral (for the two are closely associated), is the undoubted teaching of the Bible.  "But the devil, who is possessed with desire to imitate truth in twisting it, says to us:" I am nobody.” What are you afraid of?  Are you going to tremble before the existence of Satan?  Satan disappears in His successes and his triumph is his incognito. The proof that the devil exists, acts, and succeeds lies in the fact that the intelligent world does not believe in him anymore. Let me tell you, if there is a devil, there is a Jesus! If there is a devil, there is certainly a God. [19]

Dr. Zollar: "Demons fear exposure above all else.”   This explains the abuse, ridicule and hatred heaped upon the heads of the 'fanatics'-who uncover them and expose them for what they are. Satan will leave no stone unturned to smear and vilify one who attacks his kingdom of darkness with the light of the truth and deliverance." "We need believers who will throw all into the struggle to set people free of the awful bondage into which the world and even some Bible-believing churches have sunk.   The call is loud and clear; many churches today are a pale, anemic imitation of the real thing, whose members often end up fighting each other instead of the deadly hosts of hell."[20]

Chapter Ten

Kundalini Snake Demon

THE RETURN OF THE SNAKE

These Kundalini demons and other spirits of eastern religions have sought to enter many revivals.  In some cases the discernment of the leaders saved them.

"The counterfeit of the Presence of God is mainly felt upon the body, and by the physical senses, in conscious 'fire,' 'thrills,' etc. The counterfeit of the 'Presence' in the atmosphere is felt by the senses of the body, as 'breathe,' 'wind,' etc., whilst the mind is passive or inactive. The person affected by this counterfeit will be moved almost automatically to actions he would not perform of his own will, and with all his faculties in operation. He may not even remember what he has done under the 'power' of this 'presence.'"[21] Jessie-Penn Lewis, “War on the Saints”

"But another man had the same impulse, and fell down groaning and roaring, beating the floor with his hands and feet, and the demon entered into him as the angel of light, and got him to think that his conduct was of the Holy Ghost, and it became a regular habit in the meetings he attended." “War on the Saints “

"Nothing supernatural should be felt by the senses, but by the spirit. Counterfeits of today are generally wrought upon the soulish - or sense life - of believers who have not learnt to distinguish between soul and spirit."[22] Jessie Penn Lewis, “the Spiritual Warfare”.

KUNDALINI DEMONS AND STRANGE NEW DOCTRINES

This warning is very clear. False teachers will arise who craftily teach heresies which will deny the Biblical view of Jesus. Furthermore, according to a prophecy, many will believe these errors and follow them just as we see happenings in our day! The charm and inspiration of pantheism have begun to exert its influence on the Church through unorthodox religious teachers. It has happened so subtly that few people have noticed. Many Christian teachers sincerely believe that they have found a new advanced stage of Christian thought. Really, they have drifted far from the very foundations of the Christian Faith that they have joined the great plot of Satan, The Master Strategist, to capture (1) men of science, (2) men of business and (3) men of religion. They are using bewitchments, hypnosis, and mind control. There are enormous numbers of people who are caught up in these great deceptions, pleading that they are merely" researching"  "natural mind sciences,” such as Christian Science.[23]

DANGERS OF REJECTION OF JESUS

While these new religious leaders who are bring into "new pagan oriented philosophies" should be considered dangerous, many Christian leaders have received them with open arms as the answer to life's complex problems. They have been weakening the gospel message and worse yet, causing great confusion among the brethren. This is a call for the Church to resist these strange forces capturing the hearts of its people and for the Church to spring to action to defeat these enemies of religious truth.   During the end-time apostasy, it is prophesied that many church leaders will be led astray, those who follow false teachings will suffer an unhappy fate (Matt. 7:22, 23). We must be certain to follow Jesus, not man in these perilous days.

Matt. 15:14, “Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.”

We who would escape the great apostasy and the falling away that was prophesied for our time must get back to the Bible and prayer. We must check the Scriptures for ourselves comparing today's issues against God's Word. For instance, have we ever seen anyone bleed in the Bible for the people except Jesus? Have we ever seen God's image appear on the walls anywhere in the Bible? Have we ever seen Jesus or any of His disciples take anyone back to the womb or even beyond the womb to conjure up a dead person to heal their memories? Do you believe the Bible ever shows Jesus going into hell and the Devil with the authority to beat Jesus? Do you really believe that “we are little gods?” Of course, the answers to these questions remain forever No!

Disobedience, those who reject the teachings of our Lord were punished, (II Pet. 4-8).

Departure, take heed of the teachings and teachers we have heard. False teachers always neglect the truth of Salvation.( Vs. 1).

Destroyed, God always destroyed these careless people, how can we escape His judgment, (Rom. 6:23; Rev. 20: 11-15)?

Warning, Enlightened Beings are described as: Avatars, Mystics and Masters of Samadhi and not Christian-Holy Ghost manifestations.

Now let’s look at the following common manifestations of the risen Kundalini in occult practices as seen in the Third Wave.

Muscle twitches, cramps or spasms.

Energy rushes or immense electricity circulating the body

Itching, vibrating, prickling, tingling, stinging or crawling sensations

Intense heat or cold

Involuntary bodily movements,  jerking, tremors, shaking; feeling an inner force pushing one into postures or moving one's body in unusual ways.

Alterations in eating and sleeping patterns

Episodes of extreme hyperactivity or, conversely, overwhelming fatigue

Intensified or diminished sexual desires

Headaches, pressures within the skull

Racing heartbeat, pains in the chest

Digestive system problems

Numbness or pain in the limbs (particularly the left foot and leg)

Pains and blockages anywhere; often in the back and neck

Emotional outbursts; rapid mood shifts; seemingly unprovoked or excessive episodes of grief, fear, rage, depression.

Spontaneous vocalizations (including laughing and weeping) -- are as unintentional and uncontrollable as hiccoughs Hearing an inner sound or sounds, classically described as a flute, drum, waterfall, birds singing, bees buzzing but which may also sound like roaring, whooshing, or thunderous noises or like ringing in the ears.

Mental confusion; difficulty concentrating

Altered states of consciousness: heightened awareness; spontaneous trance states; mystical experiences (if the individual's prior belief system is too threatened by these, they can lead to bouts of psychosis or self-grandiosity)

Heat, strange activity, and/or blissful sensations in the head, particularly in the crown area

Now let us compare it to some of the common symptoms as related on the website newchristian.org.uk

"These are the effects that I have witnessed on people who have attended this movement and either have had hands laid on them or claim to have been imparted with "the spirit":

They come back with this kind of childlike drunken stupor.

Descriptions of a burning sensation either in their veins, heads or stomachs

Descriptions of being washed back and forth like the waves in the ocean;

Dancing about like drunk...

Inappropriate yelling and screaming like they're at a football game;

Young men whistling over and over and holding their heads and claiming that they "feel the Holy Spirit about to split them in two"; Kundalini impersonates the Holy Spirit.

One young man's back two teeth turned completely too some metallic finish

People with their eyes rolled in the back of their heads and weaving around like they're lost.

Women just gyrating and pulsating like they're being ravaged from behind from some unseen force.

Drunken uncontrollable laughter in the middle of a solemn prayer time

People being "slain in the spirit"... just falling down and being unable to move (like something's holding them down)..."

According to the website “enlightened beings” the most important thing to know and remain aware of, is that a Kundalini Awakening contains the most unbelievable expanded states of reality, enlightenment, and absolute ecstasy.  Not to mention that you've just befriended the greatest healing energy available inside you and extremely contagious to all human beings.  However, these powers come from Satan and they begin with ecstasy but will end in demonic possession which brings both eternal death and physical death; and total torment for the rest of your life.

POWER FROM BONDAGE OPPRESSION AND DEFILEMENT

Christians can live free from mental torture, panic, envy, hatred, pride, self-pity, addiction, gluttony and all other forms of bondage, oppression and defilement?

The Christian Church is a divine institution given to us as a sanctuary for believers to gather in His name to stand together under His divine protection where they can grow in faith and gain wisdom through the power of His Word. It was never intended to be a place for the Spirit of Mammon to collect money for church leaders to live like queens and kings while millions of the lost go to hell for lack of a witness.

(Joel 3:14) – “Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.”

The Valley of Decision is a name given to the Valley of Jehoshaphat as the vale of the sentence. It was the scene of Jehovah's signal inflictions on Zion's enemies (Joel 3:14).

(Lk.4:18-19).“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.”

(Jn. 8:32) “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

(Jn. 8:36), “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed…”

WHAT IS SHAKTIPAT?

''Shakti'' is another word for kundalini and ''pat'' means to descend. Shaktipat is a method by which an individual's kundalini is awakened by the direct intervention of a guru. There are several varieties of shaktipat depending on the facility of the guru and the receptiveness of the disciple.

There are also a variety of mechanisms for conveying shaktipat. These include: by glance, by word or mantra, by touch or simply by intention.

SHAKTIPAT

"Shaktipat" is Sanskrit for "descent of grace."  That "grace" is released by "kundalini" (defined in Hinduism as "an intelligent force" coiled like a snake at the base of the spine, related to the god Shiva).

"Diksha" is "initiation" into a new path of enlightenment, which is usually the occasion for receiving Shaktipat.

Shaktipat is "given" by a guru, someone possessing divine powers to trigger initiation and unlock the kundalini force.  It can be given any of the following ways:

A touch (usually on the "third eye" - the forehead - or one of the "chakras" - top of head, throat, chest, solar plexis, base of spine).

A specially chosen word (spoken in Sanskrit)…

A deep look into the eyes…

Blowing on someone…

By "remote" (out of body visitations from the guru)…

Also these days, it can be done electronically (by following instructions while watching a video)…

Shaktipat is considered "contagious" - it can spread through a crowd as the guru passes, it can be carried and passed by touch from one disciple to another, it can be passed by objects the guru has touched, or it can be sent by "remote" through reproduced videos, trance-inducing music, etc.

For Shaktipat to be "received", it doesn't require conscious cooperation or agreement, only "surrender" to the influence.  Kundalini is understood to take over the one receiving this experience.

The evidence of receiving Shaktipat is the appearance of "kriyas" - involuntary jerking, falling, laughing and/or shaking.  Some have experienced retching and gagging.  Other evidences known to happen, and considered normal:

Visions

Animal or other inarticulate noises

Being healed of diseases

Intense positive emotions that leave them incoherent

Spontaneous yoga postures (especially bowing to the floor)

Spontaneous speaking in tongues (usually Sanskrit)

Someone who has their kundalini awakened is regarded as "on fire," and to spread that awakening is to "ignite" others.  The fire (called "tummo") is regarded as the source of healings.

Shaktipat is admitted by Hindus to be potentially harmful.  Kundalini is considered a very powerful force, and if it is not properly "controlled" it can cause sickness, madness or death.  Shiva (sometimes also called "Siva") is the god of destruction and is worshiped from fear.

About Shaktipat - from "Siddha Mahayoga FAQ" – experience festival.com/a/SiddhaMahayoga/id/34752

WHO CAN GIVE SHAKTIPAT?

In theory ''anyone on fire'' can give shaktipat, i.e. anyone whose kundalini is already awakened.

Can one receive shaktipat just by being in the presence of those with awakened shakti?

There is no doubt that shakti is contagious. The mere presence of a single being whose shakti is strongly active can awaken the shakti of those around him. Similarly being in the presence of many people whose shakti is awakened to some degree can awaken one's own shakti.

The unique perspective of Siddha Mahayoga is that because kundalini is an intelligent force it will, upon awakening, naturally direct the practice of the student. All that is required is that the student completely surrenders to this force. As a result of kundalini's enfoldment spontaneous purifying movements, called kriyas will occur.

WHAT IS KRIYAS?

Kriyas, literally ''activities'', are spontaneous movements that occur after kundalini awakening. These include bodily activities such as trembling, shaking and spontaneous yoga postures; vocal activities such as yelling, or spontaneous chanting and mental activities such as visions. These kriyas eliminate the blocks to kundalini rising within the spine or central channel.

About Kriyas - kundalini-teacher.com/symptoms/kriyas.php

"Most kriyas are simple tremors or twitches as tension held in the body, releases. However, they can be quite complex movements, breathing patterns, (pranayama) vocalizations, visions...

That is why people who may never have studied Hatha Yoga, find their bodies wanting to assume Yoga postures, or why people who do not speak a foreign language may find they spontaneously chanting in Sanskrit."

About the 'fire' of healing [from the above site]:

Tummo Fire is Tibetan, also known as gtummo, the inner fire. In practice, you use the tummo fire much the same as Reiki or therapeutic touch, but no drawing symbols.

This type of tummo is specific to the process of healing and clearing the emotional blockages of karma, enhancing and smoothing the process of Kundalini, and paving the road to enlightenment.

Tummo initiation is a very powerful type of shaktipat that can smooth and accelerate the process in a very safe and easy way.

Tummo is the clear light, heat that burns away the emotional blockages, etc. that are at the root of illness. Tummo fire is related to Kundalini heat. It is based in the solar plexus, but can show up anywhere in the body, burning off karma.

When the fire is active, it reduces the need for emotional release.

Tummo fire can also be transmitted by remote.

At the end of the initiation, the power is put under the guidance of your unconscious/spirit, which directs it to where it needs to be. It can also be directed consciously.

(Jude 10-13), “But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. Woe unto them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.”

Christians should be looking for the return of Jesus Christ. They must be willing to meet him as sold out Believers. While seducing spirits are unleashed by Satan to draw the world to his Antichrist he is also working diligently to deceive Church people. In (I Cor. 10:20-21) we read, “But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God; and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. Ye cannot drink the ‘cup of the Lord’ (Communion cup) and the ‘cup of devils’; ye cannot be partakers of the ‘Lord’s table’ and of the tables of devils (Demons).”

We must avoid the proclamation of the “doctrines of devils” (I Tim. 4:1), and the teaching of “Damnable Heresies” (II Pet. 2:1). The worldwide false revival of “Christian idols or Christian stars,” are being guided by demons and one of the “Signs of the Times.” It should be a warning to every true child of God of the approaching end of the Age.

EVERY ADVANTAGE

Believers in Jesus Christ have every advantage to defeat demons. The Word says, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

[To tread on serpents] Preservation from danger. If you tread on a poisonous reptile that would otherwise injure you, I will keep you from danger. If you go between bitter and malignant enemies that would seek your life, I will preserve you. (See the notes at Mk. 16:18).

[Scorpions] The scorpion is an animal with eight feet, eight eyes and a long jointed tail, ending in a pointed weapon or sting. It is found in tropical climates, and seldom exceeds 4 inches in length. Its sting is extremely poisonous, and it is sometimes fatal to life. It is in Scripture the emblem of malicious and crafty men. When rolled up it has some resemblance to an egg, (Elk. 11:12; Ezek. 2:6). The annexed cut will give an idea of its usual form and appearance.

[The enemy] Satan. The meaning of this verse is that Jesus would preserve them from the power of Satan and all his emissaries from all wicked and crafty men.  This shows that he had divine power. He that can control Satan and his hosts that can be present to guard from all their machinations, see all their plans, and destroy all their designs, must be clothed with no less than almighty power.

Look at the description of these demons that were released in Revelation. (Rev 9:6 11) “And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. (the word “them” is a supernatural being). And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. 10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.” Revelation is describing as an army!

THE NAME OF JESUS

In addition, Jesus gives Christians power to use His name in (Matt. 28:18 20). “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

(Matt. 28:18), “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.”

He gave us the legal right to use His power. His power is shown in (Eph. 1:21 22). “Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: “And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church.”

His power is above all power and in prayer, we bind Satan, we do it! Not Jesus! The warfare is revealed in (Eph. 6:12), principalities, power, rulers of darkness of this world, and spiritual forces of wickedness in high places (heaven lies); and (earth), (Matt 16:19), “And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

The things too loose from the Devil’s power: nation, state, cities, community, geographical areas, church, family, individual members of family relatives, professions, vocations, businesses, education, finances, physical health mental health. We war against the powers of darkness, and bind up and destroy the plans of Satan commanding him to lose all that he controls. This spiritual power is the greatest force in the universe because its source of power is God controls. This spiritual power is the greatest force in the universe because its source of power is God Himself. Psa.. 62:11, “God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.” This spiritual power can do things no other controlling influence can do.

In the King James Version of the Bible, there is often little distinction made between power and authority, that they are quite closely related is seen in the fact that authority is valueless without the power to enforce it. Power is primary to God but may be applied to any holder of power, whether human or superhuman. The powers mentioned several times in the New Testament, often referred to angelic being believed to exorcize both on earth and in the heavenly places; According to the scriptures, these have been overcome by Jesus Christ.

Chapter Eleven

Demons Tremble

THE KINGDOM OF GOD

The power of the New Testament Church made demons tremble and the disciples turned the world upside down for Jesus Christ.  For the most part, entire denominations today operate without the Holy Spirit. They are devoid of the presence of Jesus, bankrupt of all spiritual gifts. They have a form of religion without any power, conviction or saving message. They have cultivated a friendship with the world. Some live in sin and ridicule the supernatural, tossing aside all teachings about heaven, hell, repentance and God’s judgment. They are spiritually weak and cold. Devils no longer fear them. Christians have no respect and little influences on society.

Paul said, “Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs and wonders, and mighty deeds,” (II Cor. 12:12).

HOLY SPIRIT WILL DWELL IN YOU

“For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal (fleshly) but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds: casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalted itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ,” (II Cor.10:4).

[The weapons of our warfare] The apostle often uses the metaphor of warfare to represent the life and trials of a Christian minister, (See Eph. 6:10-17; 1 Tim 1:18; II Tim 2:3-5).

[Are not carnal] Here he refers to the means used by the false apostle in order to secure his party; he calumniated Paul, traduced the truth, preached false and licentious doctrines, and supported these with sophistical reasoning’s.

[But mighty through God] Our doctrines are true and pure, they come from God and lead to him, and he accompanies them with his mighty power to the hearts of those who hear them; and the strong holds-the apparently solid and cogent reasoning of the philosophers, we, by these doctrines, pull down; and thus the fortifications of paganism are destroyed, and the cause of Christ triumphs wherever we come; and we put to fight the armies of the aliens, II Cor. 10:4.

II Cor. 10:5:

[Casting down imaginations] Logismous, reasoning’s or opinions… The Greek philosophers valued themselves especially on their ethic systems, in which their reasoning’s appeared to be very profound and conclusive; but they were obliged to assume principles which were either such as did not exist, or were false in themselves, as the whole of their mythological system most evidently was: truly, from what remains of them we see that their metaphysics were generally bombast; and as to their philosophy, it was in general good for nothing. When the apostles came against their gods many and their lords many with the ONE SUPREME and ETERNAL BEING, they were confounded, scattered, annihilated: when they came against their various modes of purifying the mind-their sacrificial and mediatorial system, with the LORD JESUS CHRIST, his agony and bloody sweat, his cross and passion, his death and burial, and his glorious resurrection and ascension, they sunk before them, and appeared to be what they really were, as dust upon the balance, and lighter than vanity.

[Every high thing] Even the pretended sublime doctrines, for instance, of Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics in general, fell before the simple preaching of Christ crucified.

[The knowledge of God] The doctrine of the unity and eternity of the divine nature which was opposed by the plurality of their idols, and the generation of their gods, and their men-made deities; It is amazing how feeble a resistance heathenism made, by argument or reasoning, against the doctrine of the Gospel! It instantly shrunk from the divine light, and called on the secular power to contend for it! Popery sunk before Protestantism in the same way, and defended itself by the same means. The apostles destroyed paganism wherever they came; the Protestants confuted logic, wherever their voice was permitted to be heard.

[Bringing into captivity every thought] HEATHENISM could not recover itself; in vain did its thousands of altars smoke with reiterated hecatombs, their demons were silent, and their idols were proved to be nothing in the world. POPERY could never, by any power of self-reviviscence, restore itself after its defeat by the Reformation: it had no Scripture, consecutively understood; no reason, no argument; in vain were its bells rung, its candles lighted, and its auto da fe's exhibited; in vain did its fires blaze; and in vain were innumerable human victims immolated on its altars! The light of God penetrated its hidden works of darkness, and dragged its three-headed Cerberus into open day; the monster sickened, vomited his henbane, and fled for refuge to his native shades.

[The obedience of Christ] Subjection to idols was annihilated by the progress of the Gospel among the pagans; and they soon had but one Lord, and his name one. In like manner the doctrines of the reformation, mighty through God, pulled down-demolished and brought into captivity, the whole papal system; and instead of obedience to the pope, the pretended vicar of God upon earth, obedience to Christ, as the sole almighty Head of the church, was established, particularly in Great Britain, where it continues to prevail. Hallelujah! The Lord God Omnipotent reigneth!

NO SHAME

There is no shame before the Throne of God for those who practice the deliverance ministry.

BREAKING CURSES PRAYER

Spiritual things do not happen just because you hear someone say something and then you repeat or copy their words that they say. Your faith and spiritual activity must be founded in the Word of God.

Father I rebuke, break and loose myself and my family from any and all evil curses, fetishes, charms, vexes, hexes, spells, every jinx, all psychic powers, sorcery, bewitchments, enchantments, witchcraft, love potions and psychic source.

I return them to where they came from now!

(Gen. 12:2, 3), “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

(Gen.27:29). “Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.”

(Deut. 30:7), “And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.”

(Psa. 109: 17-19). “Let him that love curses receive it unto himself,”

(Psa. 109) “You should read this entire Psalms to fully understand returning the curses.”

PSYCHIC HEREDITY AND BONDAGE

Father I renounce, (be honest) free and loose myself and my family from all psychic heredity, demonic holds: psychic powers and bondage of physical and mental illnesses, family and marital and other curses upon us, back to ten generations, iniquities, occult and psychic involvements of myself, my parents and any other ancestors of mine or my spouse, any and all ex-spouse, or their parents or any of their ancestors.

HOW TO BECOME STRONG IN THE LORD

Even though you may sense the presence of God right now, you may not tomorrow! You are not saved because you "feel saved. Your faith must stand on God Word, not on feelings. Read the Word and get into a Bible believing church.

Praise and thank Jesus every day for saving your soul:

"He that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him…" (Jn. 14:21).

Expect changes in your life!

WITNESS

Tell someone at every opportunity what you have done . . . that you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. This is very important. If you truly love Jesus, you will want to tell others about Him, and He will "manifest" Himself to you.

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved…” (Rom. 10:9-10).

SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE

Read God's word every day. You are a new born babe in Christ, you need spiritual food and it comes from God's Word. Then pray every day and take time to praise His name. Talk to God out loud, just as you would to another person, and in the name of Jesus.

FELLOWSHIP

Seek the fellowship of other born again Christians in a strong Bible believing church. By studying and praying together, you will be drawn into Christian principles and receive the abundant life in Jesus Christ.

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly  in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord," (Col. 3:16).

Chapter Twelve

Unholy Angels -- Demons

UNHOLY REALMS

In the Scriptures, both holy and unholy spirit beings are designated as angels, (Rev. 12:7).

(Acts 16:17), “The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, these men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.”

[These men are the servants of the most high God, which show unto us the way of salvation.] It is astonishing how such a testimony could be given in such a case; every syllable of it true, and at the same time full, clear, and distinct. But mark the deep design and artifice of this evil spirit: He well knew that the Jewish law abhorred all magic, incantations, magical rites, and dealings with familiar spirits; he therefore bears what was in itself a true testimony to the apostles, that by it he may destroy their credit, and ruin their usefulness. The Jews, by this testimony, would be led at once to believe that the apostles were in compact with these demons, and that the miracles they performed were done by the agency of these wicked spirits, and that the whole was the effect of magic; and this, of course, would harden their hearts against the preaching of the Gospel.

GENTILES

Finding that their own demon bore testimony to the apostles would naturally consider that the whole was one system; they had nothing to learn, nothing to correct; and thus the preaching of the apostles must be useless to them. In such a predicament as this, nothing could have saved the credit of the apostles but their dispossessing this woman of her familiar spirit, and that in the most incontestable manner; for what could have saved the credit of Moses and Aaron, when the magicians of Egypt turned their rods into serpents, had not Aaron's rod devoured theirs? And what could have saved the credit of these apostles but the casting out of this spirit of divination, with which, otherwise, both Jews and Gentiles would have believed them in compact?

Acts 16:18, "And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour."

[Paul, being grieved] Probably for the reasons assigned above.

[Turned and said to the spirit] Not to the woman; she was only the organ by which the spirit acted.

[I command thee, in the name of Jesus] Jesus is the Savior; Satan is the destroyer. The sovereign Savior says to the destroyer, Come out of her; and he came out in the same hour. Every circumstance of this case proves it to have been a real possession. We have already had several opportunities of remarking the great accuracy of Luke in his accounts of demoniacs: his education as a physician gave him advantages to detect imposture of this kind where it subsisted; but he sees none in this case. He speaks of the spirit and the damsel as distinct persons. The damsel had a spirit of divination. Paul turned to the spirit, and said, I command THEE to come out of HER; and he came out in the same hour. Had not Luke considered this as a real case of diabolic possession, he has made use of the most improper language he could choose; language and forms of speech calculated to deceive all his readers, and cause them to believe a lie. But it is impossible that the holy apostle could do so, because he was a good man; and it is not likely he could be deceived by a parcel of charlatans, because he was a wise man; and it would be absurd to suppose that, while he was under the influence of the Holy Spirit, he could be imposed on by the cunning of even the Devil himself.

Usually the unholy angels are referred to as demons, translated in The King James Version as devils.

1.  The chief of the fallen angels is an archangel who has at least forty names given in Scripture.

2.  Some are proper names, others least forty names given in Scripture.

3.  Some are proper names, but others are descriptive.

4.  For Example, in (Rev. 12:10), he is called the accuser of the brethren.

5.  He is called “that old Serpent” (Rev. 20:1), indicating his guile, Lucifer, Son of the Morning.

6.  (Isa. 14:12) his title when he fell.

The word Devil means the accuser of slander and it is of Greek origin (Rev. 12:9). Satan means adversary destroyer, the term Dragon speaks of his power. He is also called prince of devils (Matt. 9:3, 4, “prince of this world,” (Jn. 12:31), “god of this world”, and “prince of the air” (Eph. 2:2). “Belial” is implied to be his title in (II Cor. 6:15). In (II Kin. 1:2, 6, 16), he is referred to as “Beelzebub”, implying a “prince of demons”. As Dr. Chafer says, “In power, prominence and importance, Satan appears in the Bible second only to the Trinity.”[24]

His number is seven, he presides over the Thirteenth Sign of the Zodiac of which there exists only One; and His time is any Moon Void of Course. `` He Rules from the North.

The mind is very tricky, especially the part we magicians use. The God portion of the mind can do absolutely anything. Satan trusts His own, none else with this power. It will not activate for anyone, and if it does it will do so as a terrifying lesson to those who are without which attempt to harness The Power. I get "The Closer" part now. Sorath presides over the "unknowable mind" current of energy and is the God over the energy emitted by every Sun in the Universe. Then he rules the center of magnetism, and factor of life for all; also photogenes and solar power of all kinds. Sorath said that all Suns in the Universe affect us not just ours. Northern fire -- the Sun above; lastly miracles are not something Gods cause to happen. The Gods are beyond that. Their world is past the need or understanding of what a miracle is. Miracles come from US. What is a miracle to one may curse another; what is lost can be found by another for example.

WATER SPIRIT

The Water Demon was an elemental demon composed entirely of water, with the power of Hydrokinesis. It killed by drowning its victims from the inside out or by possessing the body of a victim it had already drowned and then have the dead body drag victims into the lake to drown. It roamed the lake of Camp Skylark near San Francisco, where the Halliwell family vacationed. When attacking a victim out of water, it appeared to take on an actual embodied shape.

In the late 1970s, it killed several children at Camp Skylark. Local witch Patty Halliwell investigated it, as her children had attended the camp. She, with the help of her whitelighter Sam Wilder, figured out a way to vanquish the Water demon using electricity clamps at the side of the lake. Unfortunately, as Patty was about to implement her plan, Sam tried to stop her (she had told him to stay away from the lake previously). Whilst she was distracted by freezing Sam, the demon shot out from the water behind her. She tried to freeze it, but it was immune, thus it entered her, and drowned her from the inside on the dock by the lake.

Through sexual partnership with affected people, wounded spirit, sex perversion, repulsiveness, chronic worrier, hater of God, evil actions, filthy minded incubus or succubus (sex with spirits)... Lust and porn addiction work together like old friends. Lust simply is "intense or unbridled sexual desire" (Webster's). Most sex addictions, if not all, involve lust.

Sexual Idolatry: Sex can be a powerful pleasure source. When we start making sexual pleasure the focus of our thoughts and activities, we are basically making it an idol.

An idol is anything that has a higher priority than God in our life. Porn and other sexually charged material lead people to worship sex now more than ever.

"The occult" is a broad term referring to activities that seek knowledge and/or power from sources other than God.

Sorcery, magic, psychics, palm-reading, fortune-telling, witchcraft, false religions and idol worship...

Sexual sin is part of the occult because it involves seeking "carnal knowledge" of another person.

GENERATIONAL SIN

Our sin can bring consequences (curses) that affect our descendants down to the 4th generation. These curses often manifest as weaknesses to certain types of sin. For example, the descendants of a man who commits adultery may find themselves with a tendency toward adultery. The basis for this is found in (Exod. 34:6-7), and other scriptures. A simple way to evaluate the possibility of generational sin affecting you is to construct a family tree diagram, noting any patterns of sin that run down the family line.

NOT FORGIVING

Bitterness, resentment and grudges are all examples of forgiveness. Since God was willing to forgive us for our sin, we must be willing to forgive others for what they have done to us. If we do not forgive, our healing and blessings from God will be blocked.

Is there anyone in your life that you have not forgiven? (Examples: co-workers, former boss, family members, pastor, former church members, abusers, etc.).

PRIDE

Pride is perhaps the most self-deceptive sin. There are so many ways it can manifest in our lives.

Examples of pride indicators: criticism of others, failure to give Jesus control of our life, relying on our own provisions for happiness (instead of God), and ignoring or neglecting God's call for purity in our thoughts. If we're still living as king of our life instead of making Jesus king of our life, then we have a pride problem.

SIN MEMORIES

One of the problems with sexual sin is that it creates lasting memories.

Our thoughts can easily return to those memories instantaneously. It’s amazing how we can forget much of what we learned during school, yet retain the memory of one porn picture for years.  With God's help, we can cast down those memories and train our minds to pure thoughts.

CHERISED MEMORIES

Cherishing our memories of our sexual exploits reinforces the memories and leads to prolonged failure in addiction. Even after shutting off the porn input, we can still be porn addicts by lusting over our memories! For example, my cherished memories of sex sin were difficult for me to give up to God. I had used those memories to medicate the pain of insecurity and rejection over the years. I found myself fondly remembering the sexual exploits I had done as a single. God showed me that this was despicable and that I needed to see those exploits for the sin that they were. God helped me die to the pleasure of those memories and I was able to turn away from them.

Are you cherishing any memories of sexual sin in your thoughts?

UNWANTED MEMORIES

More and more people report having been sexually abused at some point in their lives.

Sexual abuse often causes trauma and unwanted memories.

Un forgiveness is also a common foothold that may be involved.

Recovery from sex abuse can begin through prayer, by asking God to heal the emotional and spiritual wounds that were created. If un forgiveness is involved, we can ask God to give us the ability to forgive the perpetrator through the blood of Christ. Forgiving the perpetrator does not mean that we are condoning the abuse. These are often difficult issues to work through, and we encourage you to seek prayer and Christian counseling if you have been sexually abused.

BREAKING SOUL TIES

Soul ties can be created through sex, pornography or unhealthy relationships.  Soul ties can act like curses and hinder our walk to freedom, especially when we've had multiple sexual partners.

We can break soul ties through prayer, specifically addressing these points:

Confess the sin committed

Name the persons involved

Ask the Lord to sever the soul ties

Ask the Lord to restore us to wholeness.

DARK SECRETS

Sex addiction likes to stay in the dark, where it can continue to consume our life.

Keeping our sin secret from others blocks God's blessings on our lives (Prov. 28:13). Bringing it to the light can be fearful and painful, but once we do, we open the door for God's healing and forgiveness (I Jn. 1:9; Jam. 5:15-16).

COMMON STRONGHOLDS

An unbridled tongue: constant joking, sarcasm, and gossip allow evil influence in our lives (Jam. 3:6, 16).

Hatred: Hatred allows darkness to blind us (1 Jn, 2:9-11).

Stingy spirit: Refusing to honor God with our money blocks the path of God's blessings on our lives (Gal. 6:6-9).

GREED

Love of Money

The desire to be rich brings temptation and a snare.

It causes people to fall into foolish and harmful lusts.

The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil (1 Tim. 6:6-12, 17-19).

PRAYER FOR FREEDOM HEALING

A prayer for freedom and healing.

Confession brings healing and purification (I Jn. 1:9; Jam. 5:15-16).

PRAYER

Father God, I believe in Jesus Christ as the Son of God, who was crucified and resurrected from the dead. I confess that I have sinned by _____________ (list the footholds). I renounce these sins and the use of my body for any sinful purpose. Father God, I ask for your forgiveness through the blood of Jesus Christ. I close the door to the devil and his work, and I bar it with the blood of Jesus Christ. Thank you for forgiving me and cleansing me!”

Commitment: secures your resolve to serve God, not sin (Rom. 6:13, 16, 19)

"Father God, I commit myself, body, soul and spirit, to serving you wholeheartedly in the area of ________________. I will no longer present my members as instruments for sin, but rather, for righteousness. Please strengthen me by the Holy Spirit to walk in purity in this area. Thank You, in Jesus' name, Amen."

Chapter Thirteen

Spirit of Gluttony

GLUTTONY WHO SHALL BE DELIVERED?

He hath swallowed down riches, and he shall vomit them up again: God shall cast them out of his belly,” (Job 20:15).

“The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified of her children,” (Matt. 11:19).

“As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one,” (I Cor. 8:4).

“Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things,” (Phil. 3:19).

“Be not among winebibbers; among riotious eaters of flesh: 21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags,” (Prov. 23:20, 21).

“He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls,” (Prov. 25:28).

“Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me,” (Prov. 30:8).

“And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, (overindulgence in something, especially food or drink) and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares,” (Lk 21:34).

“Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed,” (Jn.6:27).

“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost,” (Rom. 14:17).

“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you,” (I Cor. 3:16)?”

“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own,” (I Cor. 6:19)?

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you,” (Matt. 6:33).

FREE FROM DEMONIC BONDAGE

Christians can live free from torment, fear, jealousy, hatred, lust, pride, self-pity, addiction, gluttony and all other forms of bondage, oppression and defilement!

Many Christian’s today are almost totally ignorant of the nature of evil spirits because they are fearful of things beyond human understanding. They choose to ignore this portion of God's ministry, and as a result multitudes are needlessly living in torment. Much of the ministry of Christ was devoted to casting devils out of tormented people. Jesus states in (Mk. 16:17) that if we are true believers these signs shall follow us, "In my name shall they cast out devils." This should be a part of our ministry to nonbelievers.

There can be two main causes for man's inner problems, the Flesh, or the old man," that is man's carnal, unregenerate, rebellious nature which is influenced and buffeted by Satan. The second causes of inner problems are evil spirits. Satan's angels, which Satan uses to fasten upon some aspect of the flesh and which will not relinquish their hold unless compelled to do so.

Correct diagnoses becomes of great practical importance.

We must know what we are dealing within each case. Is the problem caused merely by oppression, 'the flesh'?  If so, we must get the person to commit his life fully to Christ. "Our old man was crucified with him (Christ) likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts," (Gal. 5:24).

MAGIC WITCH SPELL

Witch and wizard’s use magic spells, magic potions, magic charms and magic power which probably work by the victim’s belief. There are people who believe that the spell cannot work if you do not have the confidence in it and if you do not believe in its power. However, if a person comes to you in your dreams and feeds you; it may be a witch or wizard feeding you a potion. They will put demons in you. You’ll need deliverance.

I believe they do work magical powers to make people fat or skinny. Also, if you’ve ever gone to a hypnotist for the purpose of losing weight, you will have placed yourself under the powers of witchcraft. People sometimes sleep walk and eat and never know it.

I remember many years ago I led a witch to the Lord and delivered her. She came to my house one day. My husband had this big brass elephant on a table in our entrance hall. He was a Republican and he didn’t associate it with idolatry. The witch told me, “I saw that elephant before I ever met you. As a matter of fact, witches and wizards in this area probably have seen it too. They would use it as a point of contact and work for you to gain weight. Witches love to make Christian women fat! You see, it’s an open door because it’s an idol and Christians are forbidden to have idols!”

Needless to say: that elephant was immediately thrown away!

Chapter Fourteen

Walking in Freedom

KEEPING DELIVERANCE

“So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him,”   (Isa 59:19).

Eight Requirements for Keeping Deliverance

Yield to the Lordship of Jesus in every area.

Be continuously filled with the Holy Spirit, (Eph. 5:18).

Live by the Word of God (Lk. 11:13; Acts 2:4, (Matt. 4:4; 7, 11).

Put on the whole armour of God (Eph. 6:10-18) especially the "Helmet" of hope, (I Thess. 5:8; I Tim. 13:13; Ro. 8:28; Heb. 6:18-20).

Also the "garment of praise," (Isa. 61:3; 60:18; Lk. 4:18; Heb. 13:15)... Cultivate right fellowship. (Both faith and unbelief come through what we hear, (Rom. 10:17, Mk. 4:24; Lk. 8:18)...

The Bible tells you to “Submit therefore yourselves to God, resist the Devil, and he will flee from you,” (Jam.  4:7).

Claim the protection of the blood of Jesus after a battle with demons as well as during the actual conflict.

Ask the Holy Spirit to place His Wall of Fire around your that will protect you from all demonic powers.

All deliverance ministers should learn to live a fasted life.

The Bible tells us fasting breaks the yoke of the enemy, (1 Sam. 58).

FREE FROM WITCHCRAFT

Once entrapped in witchcraft, it is not easy to get out. There is one way out and that’s through receiving Jesus Christ as Lord and His blood sacrifice as His covering for our sins.

Deliverance is having the power to set the captives free. It is never done ritualistically. It must be done by the teaching and anointing of the Holy Spirit. Deliverance works with love, the Compassion of Jesus Christ Himself operating through the deliverance minister, then the love of the deliverance minister to the one who is possessed. We have the advantage of having learned the repugnance with which demons regard genuine love and compassion to a bound and helpless individual. True Christian Love is a powerful spiritual weapon in warfare with Satan.

A person filled with the Holy Spirit who allows the love  of Jesus to flow through them can cause the demons to be in torment by embracing the bound individual and letting that holy love flow through them. Evil spirits react with hatred, rage revulsion, often screaming and sobbing to be left alone.

BEWITCHING DEMONS

The Apostle Paul was absolutely amazed when he returned to the Galatians Church to find those people that he had taught about Jesus totally bewitched. He asked them, (Gal. 3:1), "O foolish Galatians, WHO hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you."

Paul saw that these Christians were being led blindly and unresistingly onto their own destruction. That is, foolish for having yielded to the influence of the false teachers, and for having embraced doctrines that tended to subvert the gospel of the Redeemer.

Today, many are spreading lies and slander concerning the deity of Jesus Christ. Every mind is under attack to turn the people to hoards of demonic men who wish to rule the world under a new religious system called witchcraft. If they can transform the minds of the masses, they can take possession of the planet and exercise authority over the people as slaves. [iii]

The impure doctrines of our present church systems have muddied the waters of religion until it hardly favors the Holy Bible and the true church. Revival is impossible until we return to "the love of the truth,." (II Thess. 2:10). The love of the truth is the saving power of God.

Biblical truth and doctrine are absolutely imperative for true righteousness and holiness. It is impossible to bring a clean thing out of an unclean thing. The root and foundation must first be purified and established. If the doctrines are not pure, then the fruit cannot be pure. "For if the first fruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches," (Rom. 11:16).

The Holy Spirit in Prov. said, "The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit." (Prov. 12:12). Again, He said, "A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved," (Prov. 12:3). The Book of Job gives an eternal principle. "Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one," (Job 14:4).

The Apostle Paul gave Timothy a charge that applies to all ministers of the Word. Notice the carefulness he charged to us who would be teachers, “As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, 4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whore mongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for men stealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry,” (1Tim 1:3 12).

STEPS TO KEEPING DELIVERANCE

Put on the whole armor of God, (Eph. 6:10-18). Know what each item of the armor means.  Know your position in Christ. (Zech. 3:1-3). Know that you are in Him and He is in you. Confess the Word, (Rom. 10:8-10, Mk. 11:23-24). Deal Promptly with Sin, (Isa. 59-2, Rom. 6:23).

Here are steps to keep your healing and your deliverance. I am convinced that God has given gifts to His people because they produce results in all ages. These gifts can change lives and  through them God brings hope. He heals. He makes whole through the gifts of His Spirit He restores us in spirit, mind and body, within us and with each other. The various gifts of God are valid for this day.

Your words have power; stay in the Word of God. (Josh. 1:8, Psa. 1:1-3). Read the Bible every day. Forgive quickly. (Matt. 18:32:35). Develop a forgiving attitude.

Crucify the Flesh, (Gal. 5-24, 25; Rom. 6:16).

Praise and Worship, (Psa. 150)…

Thanksgiving, (Psa. 100)…

Fellowship, (Heb 10:24, 25; Ecc. 4:12)…

Cultivate the Fruit of the Holy Spirit, (Gal 5:21-25).

Love the Lord your God and your neighbor as yourself.

Get your home life in divine order, (Eph. 5:21-35).

Clean your home from all idolatry.

Pray always, (I Jn. 5:14-15, I Thess. 5:17, Rom. 8-26-27).

Pray in the Holy Spirit.

Seek Holiness and Sanctification, (I Jn. 3:1-3, Deut. 10:12-13).

Total commitment to God!

HOLINESS OF GOD

Is incomparable

“Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders,” (Exod. 15:11)?

“There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God,” (I Sam. 2:2).

EXHIBITED IN HIS CHARACTER

“But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel,” (Psa. 22:3).

And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are,” (Jn. 17:11).

Name

“For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones,” (Isa. 57:15).

“For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name” ((Lk. 1:49)).

Words

“God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth,” (Psa. 60:6).

“Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his holiness,” (Jer. 23:9).

Holiness (Hebrew godesh; Greek hagiosune); in cases “separation”, or “setting apart”, holy from Saxon, indicate sanctity or separation from all that is sinful, impure, or morally imperfect, i.e., it moral wholeness; term is used with reference to persons, places and things.

Should be magnified

“Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD,” (I Chron. 16:10).

“Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.” (Psa. 48:1).

“Let them praise th y great and terrible name; for it is holy,” (Psa. 99:3).

“Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy,” (Psa. 99:5).

HOLINESS OF HUMANS

John Wesley said, “By salvation, I mean not merely deliverance from hell or going to heaven. Salvation is a present deliverance from sin. Holiness is not a condition of present salvation. It is the thing itself.”

We know that no one except God is absolutely perfect and that real salvation is the first step in perfecting holiness. Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church. Three times in the Epistle (Eph. 1:22; 4:15; 5, 2). that Christ is specifically named as Head of the Church. This headship is His by rank, by power, by love and He is forever Jesus, our Redeemer and is the only one with the crown right to be head of the Church.

We may note: In many cases the holiness ascribed to humans in the Scriptures are simply ceremonial and formal. They are persons’ “separated”, “set apart” or dedicated to holy services. They were expected or required along with this outward dedication. However, to lead holy lives and to be inwardly dedicated, a requirement frequently overlooked. Thus, the priest and the Levites are spoken of in the Old Testament as “holy”.

Holiness is predicated or required of God’s created humans upon whom the Scriptures everywhere lay almost exclusive stress is that of Character and conduct.

Humans appear before us in the Bible as fallen beings by nature unholy and sinful. They were created in the image of God and they lost one of the most essential features of that image, holiness.

Holiness, so far as it appears in humans is an outcome of God’s gracious work in salvation and yet not without the proper exertion of one’s own free will and the putting forth of strenuous effort in( Eph. 4:22-24).

Exalted attainments in holiness are possible for men and often realized in this life. (Lk. 1:75; II Cor. 7:1;I Thess. 3:13).

Commanded

(Lev. 11:45), “For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.”

(Lev. 20:7), “Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.”

(Eph. 5:8), “For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:”

(Col. 3:12), “Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;”

(Rom. 12:1), “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.”

SANCTIFICATION

The process of God’s grace by which the believer is separated from sin and becomes dedicated God’s righteousness. Accomplished by the Word of God, (Jn. 17:7) and the Holy Spirit (Rom. 8:3-)4 sanctification results in holiness or purification from the guilt and power of sin…

Sanctification as separation from the world and setting apart for God’s service is a concept found throughout the Bible. Spoken of as “holy” or “set apart” in the Old Testament was the land of Canaan the city of Jerusalem; the tabernacle; the Temple; the Sabbath; the feasts; the prophets; the priest and the garments of the priests. God is sanctified by the witness of believers, (I Pet. 3:15) and by His judgments upon sin, (Ezek. 38:16). Jesus also was “sanctified and sent into the world,” (Jn. 10).

GOD’S WORK SANCTIFICATION

We are sanctified by God the Father Jude 1 God the Son (Heb. 2:11) and God the Holy 6l command (I Thess. 4:7) and purpose. As Paul prayed, “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify of peace Himself sanctify you complete,” (I Thess. 5:23). Sanctification is a process that continues during our lives as believers (Heb. 10:14). Only after death are the saints referred to as “perfect”, (Heb. 12:23).

BELIEVER’S WORK SANCTIFICATION

Numerous commands in the Bible imply that believers also have a responsibility in the process of sanctification. We are commanded to “be holy” (Lev. 11:44; I Pet. 1:15-16) to “be perfect” (Matt. 5:48); and to “present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness”, (Rom. 6:19). Writing to the church of the Thessalonians, the apostle Paul made a strong plea for purity; “This is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God,” (I Thess. 4:3-5).

These commands imply effort on our part.

We must believe in Jesus since we are “sanctified by faith in Him,” (Acts 26:18). Through the Holy Spirit we must also “put to death the evil deeds of the body,” (Rom. 8:13). Paul itemized the any “works of the flesh” from which we must separate ourselves, (Gal. 5:19-21. “Finally, we must walk in the Spirit in order to display the fruit of the Spirit,” (Gal. 5: 22-24).

The entire tone of Scripture accords with the weighty exhortation “Pursue peace with all men and the sanctifications without which no one will see the Lord,” (Heb. 12:14).

The New Testament teaches that the believer was sanctified positional when he was saved by virtue of his being presented “in Christ”, (I Cor. 1: 2, 30) that he is being sanctified experientially as he reckons upon his position in Christ, (Rom. 6:11) and that he will be ultimately sanctified in the sense of full conformity to Christ in glorification (Rom. 8:30).

Is separation to the service of God

“But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him,” (Psa. 4:3).

“Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,” (II Cor. 6:17).

EFFECTED BY GOD

“And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore,” (Ezek. 37:28).

“And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,” (I Thess. 5:23).

“Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called,” (Jude 1:1).

ATONEMENT

As the process by which God purifies the believer, Sanctification is based on the sacrificial death of Christ. In his letters to the churches, the apostle Paul noted that God has “chosen” and “reconciled” us to Himself in Christ for the purpose of sanctification, (Eph. 1:4; 5:25-27; Tit. 2:14).

Old Testament sacrifices did not take away sin, but they were able to sanctify “for the purifying of the flesh”, (Heb. 9:13). The blood of the New Covenant, (Heb. 10:29); however, goes far beyond this ritual purification of the body. The offering of Christ’s body (Heb. 10:10) and blood (Heb. 13:12 serve to purge our conscience rom “dead works to serve the living God”, (Heb. 9:14). Because our cleansing from sin is made possible only by Christ’s death and resurrection; we are “sanctified in Christ Jesus”, (I Cor. 1:2; Acts 20:32 I Cor. 1:30; 6:11).

ATTONEMENT EXPLAINED

“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him; for if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement,” (Rom. 5: 8-11).

“And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation,” (II Cor. 5:18-19).

WE BELIEVE

1. We believe in one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

2. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His death on the Cross, in His atonement for our sins through His blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His Second Coming in power and glory as King of Kings.

3. We believe that salvation through Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father and eternal life. (Acts 4: 12).

4. We believe sinners must be born again through water and Spirit to enter the Kingdom of God. (Jn. 3:16-36).

5. We believe Jesus Christ is the logos - the living Word of God.

6. We believe the Holy Bible to be the inspired, infallible, inerrant, authoritative Word of God.

7. We believe in water baptism in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (II Tim. 3: 16).

8. We believe Holy Communion is a sacred rite. Jesus said, “Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.” (Jn. 6:53)

9. We believe that marriage is a holy covenant between God and one man and one woman. (Gen.

2:18). We believe in the Ten Commandments.

11. We believe Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, His Body, which is composed of all men and women, living and dead, who have been joined to Him through saving faith and obedience. The true Church is the whole, undivided, unbroken Body of Christ that includes Believers of all nations, tribes, and races who affirm the holy orthodox faith as delivered once unto the Apostles.

12. We believe the Holy Spirit has come into the world to reveal and glorify Jesus Christ to the world. He convicts sinners of their transgressions against God. Only the Holy Spirit can draw sinners to Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit imparts new life to those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. He indwells in all believers at the time of spiritual rebirth. He baptizes believers with power and imparts spiritual gifts. He seals them until the day of redemption.

13. We believe that Jesus gives His disciples power to cast out devils with His Word. (Matt. 8:16).

14. We believe at physical death the believer enters immediately into eternal, conscious fellowship with the Lord and awaits the resurrection of his body to everlasting glory and blessing. At physical death the unbeliever enters immediately into eternal, conscious separation from the Lord and awaits the resurrection of his body to everlasting judgment and condemnation.

15. We believe there is a real devil, Satan, who was defeated by Jesus Christ at Calvary. (I Jn. 3:8).

16. We believe the day of Jesus Christ's return shall not come, except there come a falling away first (apostasy), and that man of sin (Antichrist) be revealed, the son of perdition. (II Thess. 2:3, 4).

17. We believe whosoever is not found in the book of life will be cast into the lake of fire. (Rev. 20:15).

18. We believe anyone who receives the mark of the beast shall be cast into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. (Rev. 14:15).

19. We believe that when Jesus Christ returns, we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together in the clouds with the resurrected dead in Christ, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall ever be with the Lord. (I Thess. 7:15).

20. We believe the Consummation of all things includes the Glorious Appearing of Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the dead, and translation of those alive in Christ, the judgment of the just and the unjust, and the fulfillment of Christ's kingdom in the new heavens and the new earth. Furthermore, we believe that Satan and his hosts and all humans outside Christ will be separated from the presence of God, and endure eternal punishment. The Bride of Christ, given glorified bodies, shall live and reign with Jesus Christ forever. The Church will be in the presence of God forever, giving Him praise and glory and honor.
