More than likely you know someone that is afflicted
by evil spirits. Spiritual warfare is a subject that many Christians
don’t like to talk about even though the practice of casting out
demons was something that occupied much Jesus’ time when He walked
on the earth. All born again believers in Christ have been given the
authority to deal with devils, meaning we have the right to bind
them in the areas we live, work and operate, and cast them out as
well. This is achieved by determining the history of the area you
are operating in, what kind of people are living there and their
type of religion. However, it is necessary to incapacitate the
strong man if you want to plunder his house. This means you must
bind the strong man over the person before you can proceed to cast
out the demons. Jesus also told us there are certain unclean spirits
which require prayer and fasting. The Lord wants us to fast in order
to break loose the bands of wickedness, to remove heavy burdens, to
set the oppressed free, and to break all yokes of bondage. This was
an important message if you are falling short of the abundant life
promised by Jesus. |
