QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

BELIEVERS VOICE OF VICTORY SEPTEMBER 2000

Q

I’VE BEEN PRAYING SEVERAL YEARS FOR MY BROTHER (AND SEVERAL OTHER RELATIVES) TO GET SAVED BUT NONE OF THEM HAVE GOTTEN SAVED YET! DOES IT REALLY DO ANY GOOD FOR ME TO PRAY FOR THEM?

YES! YOUR PRAYERS CAN BE A POWERFUL FORCE IN THE LIVES OF YOUR UNSAVED RELATIVES IF YOU PRAY ACCORDING TO THE WISDOM AND WORD OF GOD. BUT MOST CHRISTIANS DON’T KNOW HOW TO PRAY WITH SKILL. THEY THROW PRAYERS IN EVERY DIRECTION AND HOPE SOMETHING COMES OF IT. THAT’S ESPECIALLY TRUE WHEN THEY PRAY FOR THE LOST. IT’S NOT UNCOMMON TO SEE BELIEVERS PRAYING FOR PEOPLE TO GET SAVED FOR 20. 30. EVEN 40 YEARS WITHOUT RESULTS.

WHAT EXACTLY ARE THESE PEOPLE PRAYING? IT USUALLY BOILS DOWN TO, ‘OH, GOD, PLEASE SAVE MY BROTHER. HE NEEDS TO BE SAVED.’ THEN THEY MIGHT GO A STEP FURTHER AND START REHEARSING THEIR BROTHER’S SINS. ‘LORD, HE GOT DRUNK AGAIN LAST NIGHT AND WE HAD TO BAIL HIM OUT OF JAIL AGAIN. IF YOU DON’T SAVE HIM, HE’S GOING TO DRIVE US ALL CRAZY!’

THAT MAY SOUND FUNNY, BUT EVERY ONE OF US HAS PRAYED PRAYERS THAT SOUNDED LIKE THAT.

WHAT WE HAVEN’T UNDERSTOOD IS THIS: THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUR BROTHER (OR ANY OTHER UNSAVED PERSON) EXCEPT THE DEVIL. NO HUMAN BEING WHO TRULY UNDERSTOOD THE SALVATION JESUS OFFERS WOULD REJECT IT OF HIS OWN FREE WILL. NO ONE!

WHY, THEN, ARE SO MANY PEOPLE STILL UNSAVED? SECOND CORINTHIANS 4:4 TELLS US IT IS BECAUSE ‘THE GOD OF THIS WORLD [THE DEVIL] 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.’

ONCE YOU REALIZE IT’S THE DEVIL WHO’S THE REAL PROBLEM, YOUR FIRST PRAYER STEP BECOMES CLEAR. YOU MUST GET THE DEVIL OUT OF YOUR BROTHER’S WAY.

JESUS SAID YOU CAN’T ENTER INTO A STRONG MAN’S HOUSE, AND SPOIL HIS GOODS, EXCEPT YOU FIRST BIND THE STRONG MAN (MATTHEW 12:29). SO BIND HIM. SAY, ‘YOU SPIRIT OPERATING IN THE LIFE OF MY BROTHER, BLINDING HIM TO THE GOSPEL TO KEEP HIM OUT OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD, I BIND YOU NOW. I BELONG TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. I CARRY HIS AUTHORITY AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND IN HIS NAME I COMMAND YOU TO DESIST IN YOUR MANEUVERS. I SPOIL YOUR HOUSE ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF GOD AND I ENTER INTO IT TO DELIVER MY BROTHER FROM YOUR HANDS.’

NOW, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CAST THAT DEVIL ENTIRELY OUT OF THE SITUATION, BECAUSE YOUR BROTHER MAY INVITE HIM BACK IN FASTER THAN YOU CAN CAST HIM OUT. BUT YOU CAN BIND THAT SPIRIT AND KEEP IT BOUND.

THE NEXT STEP IS FOUND IN MATTHEW 9:37-38, WHERE JESUS SAID, ‘…PRAY YE THEREFORE THE LORD OF THE HARVEST, THAT HE WILL SEND FORTH LABOURERS INTO HIS HARVEST.’ IT’S THE WORD OF GOD THAT BRINGS FAITH FOR SALVATION (ROMANS 10:17). SEE TO IT THAT THE WORD GETS INTO YOUR BROTHER’S HEART.

‘HOW?’ YOU SAY. ‘HE WON’T LISTEN TO ME!’ PROBABLY NOT, BUT GOD KNOWS WHOM HE WILL LISTEN TO, AND HE’LL SEND THAT PERSON HALFWAY AROUND THE WORLD TO TALK TO YOUR BROTHER IF NECESSARY.

PRAY TO THE LORD OF THE HARVEST. SAY, ‘FATHER, I’M ASKING YOU TO SEND LABORERS ACROSS MY BROTHER’S PATH, LABORERS WHO ARE EQUIPPED WITH THE WORD OF GOD ABOUT SALVATION, BAPTISM IN THE HOLY GHOST, HEALING AND DELIVERANCE. SEND LABORERS WHO CAN COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY WITH HIM SO YOUR WORD CAN REACH HIS HEART.’

ONCE YOU’VE PRAYED FOR YOUR BROTHER LIKE THAT, FROM THEN ON, PUT YOUR FAITH IN ACTION BY TREATING HIM LIKE HE’S SAVED – NOT LIKE HE’S NO GOOD. DON’T GIVE UP. GET SMART! START PRAYING ACCORDING TO THE WORD AND PRAYING BY FAITH…AND YOU WILL SEE THE SALVATION OF THE LORD!

UNDERSTANDING YOUR AUTHORITY

BY KENNETH E HAGIN

WE DON’T HAVE TO BE AFRAID OF THE DEVIL’S STRATEGIES AGAINST US BECAUSE JESUS HAS ALREADY DEFEATED HIM! TOO MANY CHRISTIANS ARE TRYING TO DO BATTLE WITH AN ENEMY WHO HAS ALREADY BEEN DEFEATED. JESUS WON THE VICTORY OVER ALL THE POWERS OF THE ENEMY MORE THAN TWO THOUSAND YEARS AGO. AND JESUS HAS AUTHORISED US TO TAKE OUR PLACE IN HIM - TO EXERCISE AUTHORITY OVER ALL THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL (LUKE 10:19). IN THE BOOK OF EPHESIANS, PAUL PRAYED THAT THE CHURCH AT EPHESUS WOULD RECEIVE THE REVELATION OF WHO THEY ARE IN CHRIST.

EPHESIANS 1:16-23:

16: Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

17: That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

18: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

19: And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

20: Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

21: 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:

22: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

23: Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

WE UNDERSTAND, OF COURSE, THAT PAUL DID NOT WRITE A LETTER TO THE CHURCH AT EPHESUS IN CHAPTERS AND VERSES. MAN DIVIDED IT INTO CHAPTERS AND VERSES FOR EASY REFERENCE. BUT AS WE CONTINUE TO READ CHAPTER 2, WE FIND THAT THE APOSTLE PAUL IS STILL WRITING ABOUT THE SAME THEME - THE REVELATION THAT HE WANTED THEM TO RECEIVE

EPHESIANS 2:1-6:

1: And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

2: Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

3: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

4: But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

5: Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

6: And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

NOTICE THERE ARE TWO KEY PHRASES IN THIS PRAYER WHICH PAUL PRAYED FOR THE CHURCH AT EPHESUS. THE FIRST KEY PHRASE IN EPHESIANS 1:20 SAYS, ‘…AND SET HIM (JESUS) AT HIS (GOD) OWN RIGHT HAND IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES…’ THE SECOND KEY PHRASE AT EPHESIANS 2:6 SAYS, ‘… AND HATH RAISED US UP TOGETHER..’.

IN THE MIND OF GOD THE FATHER AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, WE WERE RAISED WHEN CHRIST WAS RAISED. NOTICE ALSO THAT GOD NOT ONLY RAISED US UP TOGETHER, BUT HE MADE US SIT TOGETHER IN HEAVENLY PLACES IN CHRIST JESUS. (EPH 2:6). SO IN THE MIND OF GOD, WE WERE RAISED WHEN CHRIST WAS RAISED, AND WHEN CHRIST SAT DOWN, WE SAT DOWN TOO. THAT’S WHERE WE ARE NOW - SEATED WITH CHRIST. AND ALL AUTHORITY THAT HAS BEEN GIVEN TO HIM BELONGS TO US!

NOT ONLY HAVE WE BEEN MADE TO SIT DOWN WITH CHRIST, BUT WE ALSO HAVE BEEN SEATED ‘FAR ABOVE ALL PRINCIPALITY, AND POWER, AND MIGHT, AND DOMINION..’ (EPH 1:21). WE KNOW JESUS CHRIST IS SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER FAR ABOVE ALL OF THESE POWERS, BUT WE ARE THERE TOO. THE WORD OF GOD TELLS US TO EXERCISE AUTHORITY OVER THE DEVIL AND TO ENFORCE HIS DEFEAT. GOD IS NOT GOING TO DO IT FOR US. HE HAS ALREADY DEFEATED THE DEVIL THROUGH CHRIST’S DEATH, BURIAL, AND RESURRECTION. AND HE HAS GIVEN US AUTHORITY OVER THE DEVIL.

EPHESIANS 6:12 SAYS, For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

THOUGH WE MAY BE WRESTLING AGAINST THESE POWERS, WE HAVE AUTHORITY OVER THEM THROUGH CHRIST.

THIS AUTHORITY IS NOT THE PROPERTY OF JUST A SELECTED FEW. SOMETIMES WE THINK THAT IF A PERSON IS AN EVAENGELIST, A PASTOR, OR A GREAT AND MIGHTY SAINT OF GOD, HE HAS MORE AUTHORITY. BUT HE DOESN’T HAVE ANY MORE AUTHORITY THAN YOU HAVE. THIS AUTHORITY IS THE TRUE POSSESSION OF EVERY CHILD OF GOD!

THIS AUTHORITY BELONGS TO YOU WHETHER YOU KNOW ABOUT IT OR NOT. ANY BLESSING, ANY RIGHT, ANY PRIVILEGE, ANY AUTHORITY CAN BELONG TO YOU, BUT IF YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT IT, YOU CAN’T ACT UPON IT. OR YOU CAN KNOW ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES THROUGH CHRIST, BUT IF YOU DON’T ACT UPON THAT KNOWLEDGE, IT STILL DOESN’T BECOME A REALITY TO YOU. IN OTHER WORDS, YOU DON’T ENJOY THE REALITY OF IT. YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT BELONGS TO YOU. BUT KNOWLEDGE ALONE ISN’T ENOUGH. IT IS KNOWLEDGE ACTED UPON THAT BRINGS RESULTS.

IN 1952 I WAS HOLDING A REVIVAL MEETING IN OKLAHOMA, AND DURING THE MEETING, THE LORD APPEARED TO ME IN A VISION. THIS WAS THE THIRD TIME HE HAD APPEARED TO ME. AT THE END OF THE VISION, HE BEGAN TALKING TO ME ABOUT THE DEVIL, DEMONS AND DEMON ACTIVITY, AND HOW TO EXERCISE AUTHORITY OVER THEM.

THE LORD SEEMED TO BE STANDING WHERE THE CEILING OF THE ROOM WAS, AND I WAS KNEELING THERE BEFORE HIM. WHILE HE WAS TALKING, A DEMON OR AN EVIL SPIRIT CAME BETWEEN THE TWO OF US AND PUT OUT SOMETHING LIKE A SMOKE SCREEN OR A CLOUD. AS A RESULT, I COULDN’T SEE JESUS ANYMORE. THEN THE DEMON JUMPED UP AND DOWN AND WAVED HIS ARMS AND LEGS. IN A SHRILL VOICE, THE DEMON SAID, ‘YAKETY, YAK, YAK. YAKETY, YAK, YAK.’ I COULD NOT HEAR ONE WORD JESUS WAS SAYING TO ME, AND I COULD NOT SEE JESUS BECAUSE OF THE DARK CLOUD.

I WONDERED, WHY IS THE LORD PERMITTING THIS? WHY IS HE LETTING THIS HAPPEN? I NEEDED TO HEAR WHAT JESUS WAS SAYING. DOESN’T HE KNOW I’M NOT HEARING WHAT HE IS SAYING? WHY DOESN’T HE TELL THIS DEMON TO STOP? WHY DOESN’T HE REBUKE THIS DEMON? THESE THOUGHTS WERE GOING THROUGH MY MIND, BUT THE DARK CLOUD WAS STILL THERE, AND THE DEMON CONTINUED TO DISRUPT WHAT JESUS WAS SAYING TO ME.

SUDDENLY, WITHOUT THINKING, I SPOKE TO THE SPIRIT AND SAID, ‘I COMMAND YOU, IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, TO SHUT UP AND TO STOP!’ WHEN I SAID THIS, THE DEMON HIT THE FLOOR, THE CLOUD DISAPPEARED, AND I COULD SEE JESUS STANDING THERE. THE DEMON LAY ON THE FLOOR - WHIMPERING, WHINING, AND SHAKING LIKE A LITTLE PUP THAT HAS BEEN WHIPPED.

THEN JESUS SAID SOMETHING WHICH ABSOLUTELY UPENDED MY THEOLOGY. HE POINTED TO THE DEMON LYING ON THE FLOOR, AND SAID TO ME, ‘IFYOU HADN’T DONE SOMETHING ABOUT THAT, I COULDN’T HAVE.’

I SAID, ‘LORD, I DIDN’T HEAR YOU RIGHT. YOU DIDN’T SAY IF I HADN’T DONE SOMETHING ABOUT THAT DEMON, YOU COULDN’T HAVE. YOU MEAN’T YOU WOULDN’T HAVE, DIDN’T YOU?’

JESUS LOOKED AT ME VERY STERNLY AND SAID, ‘NO, I SAID I COULDN’T!’

I SAID, ‘LORD, THAT IS DIFFERENT FROM ANYTHING I HAVE EVER HEARD. THAT IS DIFFERENT FROM ANYTHING I HAVE EVER PREACHED. I WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY VISION OR ANY KIND OF EXPERIENCE IF IT CANNOT BE PROVEN BY THE WRITTEN WORD - WITH AT LEAST THREE REFERENCES FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT. THE BIBLE SAYS, ‘… IN THE MOUTH OF TWO OR THREE WITNESSES SHALL EVERY WORD BE ESTABLISHED’ (2 COR 13:1). YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO GIVE ME AT LEAST THREE REFERENCES IN THE NEW TESTAMENT FOR ME TO ACCEPT WHAT YOU ARE SAYING.’

JESUS DIDN’T GET ANGRY WITH ME. HE SMILED SO SWEETLY AND SAID, ‘I’LL GIVE YOU FOUR.’ THEN HE WENT ON TO SAY, ‘THERE IS NO PLACE IN THE NEW TESTAMENT WHERE ANY WRITER TOLD THE CHURCH TO PRAY TO GOD THE FATHER ABOUT THE DEVIL OR TO PRAY TO GOD THE FATHER TO REBUKE THE DEVIL.’

PEOPLE WHO ASK GOD TO REBUKE THE DEVIL ARE WASTING THEIR TIME. YOU SEE, THE LEAST MEMBER OF THE BODY OF CHRIST HAS JUST AS MUCH AUTHORITY OVER THE DEVIL AS ANYONE ELSE. UNLESS BELIEVERS DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE DEVIL, NOTHING WILL BE DONE.

THE FIRST SCRIPTURE JESUS GAVE ME WAS MATT 28:18. MATTHEW RECORDED THAT WHEN CHRIST AROSE FROM THE DEAD, ALL POWER WAS GIVEN UNTO HIM IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. THE GREEK WORD FOR ‘POWER’ CAN BE TRANSLATED AUTHORITY IN THIS PASSAGE OF SCRIPTURE. ALL AUTHORITY WAS GIVEN UNTO JESUS IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. THEN JESUS SAID TO ME’I IMMEDIATELY DELEGATED THE AUTHORITY IN THE EARTH TO THE CHURCH; I SAID ‘GO!’ IN THE VERY NEXT VERSE, MATTHEW RECORDS THE WORDS OF JESUS, ‘GO YE THEREFORE, …’ (MATT 28:19). YOU SEE, JESUS IS THE HEAD, AND WE ARE THE BODY. BECAUSE HE IS THE HEAD, BECAUSE HE IS VICTORIOUS, AND BECAUSE HE DEFEATED THE DEVIL, HE HAS AUTHORISED US TO GO WITH HIS AUTHORITY.

THE SECOND SCRIPTURE JESUS GAVE ME WAS ACTUALLY A PASSAGE FOUND IN MARK CHAPTER 16:

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

16: He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

17: And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

THE VERY FIRST SIGN TO FOLLOW BELIEVERS IS THAT IN THE NAME OF JESUS, THEY WILL CAST OUT DEVILS. IN OTHER WORDS, WE HAVE AUTHORITY OVER THE DEVIL! IN FACT, THIS IS THE WAY JESUS INTERPRETED MARK 16:15-17 TO ME: IN ORDER TO CAST THE DEVIL OUT, WE HAVE TO EXERCISE AUTHORITY OVER HIM.

I REMEMBER THAT FOR MANY YEARS I FASTED AND PRAYED FOR MY OLDEST BROTHER TO BE SAVED. HE WAS THE ‘BLACK SHEEP’ OF THE FAMILY. IN SPITE OF MY PRAYERS, THINGS SEEMED TO GET WORSE INSTEAD OF BETTER. I’D ALWAYS PRAYED, ‘GOD, SAVE HIM.’ BUT I HEARD THE LORD CHALLENGING ME TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. HE TOLD ME THAT I HAD THE AUTHORITY. SO WITH MY BIBLE IN ONE HAND AND MY OTHER HAND LIFTED TO HEAVEN, I SAID, ‘IN THE NAME OF JESUS, I BREAK THE POWER OF THE DEVIL OVER MY BROTHER’S LIFE. I CLAIM HIS SALVATION.’ YOU SEE, I GAVE THE ORDER.

ROMANS 5:17 SAYS, 17: For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.

THE AMPLIFIED BIBLE SAYS, ‘… REIGN AS KINGS IN LIFE THROUGH THE ONE MAN JESUS CHRIST.’ WHEN A KING GIVES AN ORDER, HE KNOWS IT IS GOING TO BE CARRIED OUT BECAUSE HE IS IN AUTHORITY.

SOON AFTER I EXERCISED MY AUTHORITY, THE DEVIL TRIED TO TELL ME THAT MY BROTHER WOULD NOT BE SAVED. AS I WALKED INTO MY LIVING ROOM ONE DAY, IT WAS AS IF SOMEONE THERE WITH ME SAID, ‘OH, COME ON NOW, YOU DON’T THINK OLD DUB WILL EVER BE SAVED, DO YOU?’ I STOPPED RIGHT THERE, DEAD IN MY TRACKS, AND FROM THE INSIDE OF ME, FROM MY SPIRIT, I BEGAN TO LAUGH - IT JUST BUBBLED UP UNTIL IT CAME OUT OF MY MOUTH. AND I SAID, ‘NO, MR DEVIL, I DON’T THINK THAT! I NEVER HAVE THOUGHT THAT! I KNOW IT BECAUSE I AM TAKING THE NAME OF JESUS AND BREAKING YOUR POWER OVER HIM!’ THE SAME THING HAPPENED TWO DAYS LATER IN THE SAME SPOT, AND I SAID THE SAME THING TO HIM. THE NEXT SUNDAY MY BROTHER WAS SAVED.

MANY TIMES PEOPLE ENDEAVOR TO USE THE AUTHORITY THAT BELONGS TO THEM, BUT WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES DON’T CHANGE IMMEDIATELY, THEY BECOME DISCOURAGED AND SLIP BACK INTO THE NATURAL. THEY START TALKING UNBELIEF, AND THEY DEFEAT THEMSELVES. UNCONSCIOUSLY, THEY GIVE THE DEVIL DOMINION OVER THEM. I DIDN’T SEE ANYTHING CHANGE THE MOMENT I SPOKE IN THE NAME OF JESUS, BUT I KNEW I HAD SPOKEN WITH THE AUTHORITY THAT BELONGED TO ME.

THE THIRD VERSE THE LORD GAVE ME WHEN HE APPEARED TO ME IS FOUND IN JAMES. JAMES 4:7 SAYS: 7: Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

‘YOU’ IS THE UNDERSTOOD SUBJECT OF THE SENTENCE. JAMES DOES NOT SAY, ’PRAY TO GOD AND HE WILL RESIST THE DEVIL FOR YOU.’ NO, JAMES SAYS, ‘YOU RESIST THE DEVIL!’ YOU HAVE TO HAVE AUTHORITY OVER HIM TO BE ABLE TO RESIST HIM. YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO GET SOMEONE ELSE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE DEVIL FOR YOU. YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO EXERCISE YOUR OWN AUTHORITY.

JAMES DOES NOT SAY THE DEVIL WILL FLEE FROM JESUS. HE SAYS THE DEVIL WILL FLEE FROM YOU. THE AUTHORITY IS YOURS. SOMEONE SAID, ’I JUST DON’T FEEL LIKE IT IS SO.’ BUT FEELING DOESN’T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT. THE AUTHORITY IS YOURS WHETHER YOU FEEL LIKE IT OR NOT, BUT YOU MUST EXERCISE IT. THIS IS WHERE A LOT OF CHRISTIANS MISS IT - THEY ARE GOING BY FEELINGS. THEIR FAITH IS NOT IN THEIR AUTHORITY; THEIR FAITH IS IN THEIR FEELINGS.

I LOOKED UP THE WORD ‘FLEE’ IN THE DICTIONARY, AND I FOUND A DEFINITION THAT DESCRIBED WHAT I SAW IN THE VISION. ‘TO FLEE’ MEANS TO RUN FROM AS IN TERROR. RESIST THE DEVIL, AND HE WILL RUN AWAY FROM YOU AS IN TERROR. MOST CHRISTIANS DON’T KNOW THAT. THEY SEE THE DEVIL, AND THEY RUN AWAY FROM HIM AS IN TERROR. BUT THE DEVIL IS SUPPOSED TO BE RUNNING FROM THEM. WHEN I FOUND THIS DEFINITION, I KNEW WHY THE DEMON IN MY VISION WHIMPERED, CRIED, TREMBLED, AND SHOOK. HE WAS SCARED. HE KNEW HE WAS A DEFEATED FOE, AND I HAD FOUND OUT ABOUT IT.

EVERY WRITER IN THE NEW TESTAMENT IS ADDRESSING CHRISTIANS, AND, IN EVERY INSTANCE, THE WRITER TELLS CHRISTIANS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE DEVIL. WE MUST HAVE AUTHORITY, OR WE COULDN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE DEVIL.

THE FOURTH AND LAST SCRIPTURE JESUS MENTIONED IS FOUND IN FIRST PETER 5:8:

8: Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

‘YOUR ADVERSARY’ MEANS YOUR OPPONENT OR ENEMY. IT MEANS ONE ARRAYED AGAINST YOU. IT IS THE ENEMY, SATAN. THE PROBLEM WITH MANY CHRISTIANS IS THAT THEY SAY, ‘OH, THE DEVIL IS AFTER ME. LET’S PRAY. YOU ALL PRAY FOR ME SO THE DEVIL WON’T GET ME.’ WELL, THE DEVIL HAS ALREADY GOTTEN THEM, TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH ABOUT THE MATTER, BECAUSE IF THEY TALK LIKE THAT, THEY ARE ALREADY DEFEATED.

YOU CAN TURN IN PRAYER REQUESTS. YOU CAN GET ALL THE PREACHERS ON RADIO AND TELEVISION AND THEIR WIVES TO PRAY FOR YOU, BUT YOU WILLS TILL BE BOUND BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING. YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR SITUATION. YOU ARE TOLD BY GOD HIMSELF TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

WE READ FIRST PETER 5:8, WHICH SAYS,

8: Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

WITH THAT VERSE IN MIND, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT WHEN THE DEVIL COMES AGAINST YOU? ARE YOU GOING TO STICK YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND LIKE AN OSTRICH AND HOPE HE WILL GO AWAY? ARE YOU GOING TO TRY TO FIND SOMEONE TO ENCOURAGE YOU WITH NATURAL HUMAN SYMPATHY - SOMEONE WHO WILL SAY THAT EVERYTHING WILL BE BETTER TOMORROW? NO, BLESS GOD, GO AHEAD AND DO WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS TO DO! YOU RESIST THE DEVIL, AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU!

LET’S READ THE NEXT VERSE:

9: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world

GOD’S PLAN IS NOT FOR YOU TO ‘WANDER LIKE A BEGGAR THROUGH THE HEAT AND COLD.’ HIS PLAN IS FOR YOU TO RULE AND REIGN OVER THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF LIFE - OVER POVERTY, OVER DISEASE, OVER ANYTHING THAT WOULD HINDER YOU. THE AMPLIFIED BIBLE SAYS WE ARE TO ‘REIGN AS KINGS IN LIFE THROUGH THE ONE MAN JESUS CHRIST’ (ROM 5:17). HOW CAN A KING REIGN? HE REIGNS BECAUSE HE HAS AUTHORITY. WELL, YOU REIGN BECAUSE YOU HAVE AUTHORITY. JESUS CHRIST HAS AUTHORISED YOU TO RULE AND REIGN IN THIS LIFE!

KENNETH HAGIN MINISTRIES

YOU CAN KNOW ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES THROUGH CHRIST, BUT IF YOU DON’T ACT UPON THAT KNOWLEDGE, IT STILL DOESN’T BECOME A REALITY TO YOU.

UNLESS BELIEVERS DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE DEVIL, NOTHING WILL BE DONE.

BECAUSE HE IS THE HEAD, BECAUSE HE IS VICTORIOUS, AND BECAUSE HE DEFEATED THE DEVIL, HE HAS AUTHORISED US TO GO WITH HIS AUTHORITY.

THE KEYS TO THE KINGDOM

ARE BINDING, LOOSING AND KNOWLEDGE

BY MARY GARRISON

Chapter 13

Power in Action

BINDING and LOOSING is the MOST POWERFUL, SWIFTEST, MOST EFFECTIVE ACTION ever committed by God to the Saints."I shall ENDUE YOU WITH POWER from on High" means just that,unprecedented POWER over ALL FORCES! We need this power in everything we attempt to do whether it is winning a soul,preaching, or just driving a car. Have you ever tried to pluck some soul out of the hand of Satan without using the mighty weapons: BINDING and LOOSING? Satan will not allow you to take his wards unless these powers are put into action. I have won few souls that kept themselves free without SPIRITUAL WARFARE.We must not wait upon the enemy to engage us in combat, but we should engage the enemy! The following is an experience I had in BINDING and LOOSING. I wish to make it clear that we cannot always expect God to work as fast as in the following incident, but God will bring it about in His own time and way. One day. Lloyd and I were driving along the highway, and we saw this man walking away from his car with a gas can. Another man a child sat in the car. We decided to give him a ride to the gas station. Lloyd stopped, and the man got in the back seat. He was a nice looking middle aged man. He was obviously a drinker, but was not drunk then. We stopped at a convenience store nearby. He went In and got gas in his can, a beer in a sack, and began to sip it. The short time this took was plenty of time for me to go into the presence of God and find out just what, if anything, needed to be done by me concerning this man. As I said before, some may walk accidentally, but those who are SONS are LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD into all things.

Suddenly, I began to know that this man was called to the ministry at one time, but was far away from God today. l knew every thing I needed to know about him and how to proceed in the few blocks until we dropped him off. I bound the SPIRIT of BONDAGE that had him enslaved, the SPIRIT of WHOREDOMS which worked with Bondage. I took out the SWORD of the SPIRIT of GOD and chased off all the FAMILIAR SPIRITS, COMMON SPIRITS,ETC., who illegally lived within him. I asked God to pour out His SPIRIT of SUPPLICATION and GRACE upon him, toplead with him, showing him the price paid upon Calvary for his redemption; to let him review his position and destination if he continued upon his present course. It doesn't take long to do all of this work, as it was done in quietness in the SPIRIT REALM. He sat very quietly, as we drove back to his car. I used this time to tell him that we were ministers and had a Christian camp not faraway. We stopped behind his car, and he got out without hardly a comment. I thought, "Well ... I guess I do the plowing and the planting and Apollos can dothe harvesting this time. After all, its not my affair, I've done my part. The HOLY GHOST can do HIS, HIS WAY It is Gods problem, if He doesn't move now, I can't." While I was taking my usual "Dont blame me, God" attitude, the man stooped down by my car window to thank us. I heard my voice say, "You know that God wants you to come back to Him, don't you? You know He called you to preach,and you are far from Him." His eyes began to widen to look at us in a strange way. He said. "I knew it! Of all the cars that were passing Page 32 down this road. why did you have to stop?" "You could never understand the terrible things I have done. I just got out of jail for trying to kill my father," he said. Many horrible confessions began to pour out of him ... and he said, "God would never take me back!" I reached my hand out through the window and said, "He wants you!"This man threw the beer can one way, the cigarette another, and cried with a loud voice, "And I want HIM and I am coming back, Lord!" He screamed and cried and wretched as my husband and I unbound those devils I had previously bound, and cast them out of him. Nothing stood between him and God now. And with his father and son craning their necks looking at such a sight, he threw up his hands and praised God from the very depths of his being, thanking God for such everlasting mercy and grace! The cars were going very slowly along that road. The drivers have probably slowed down before to look at bloody wrecks along the road, but I believe it is the only time they ever saw a full grown man being BORN into the KINGDOM of GOD beside a highway!

I KNOW THAT I WILL HAVE THE PETITION I ASK OF YOU BECAUSE ACCORDING TO 1 JOHN 5:14-15 YOUR EARS ARE OPEN TO MY PRAYER. I AM ASKING ACCORDING TO YOUR WILL. 1 JOHN 5:16 SAYS ‘IF ANYONE SEES HIS BROTHER COMMIT A SIN THAT DOES NOT LEAD TO DEATH, HE SHOULD PRAY AND GOD WILL GIVE HIM LIFE.’ I AM PRAYING FOR MY BROTHER __________. I THANK YOU FATHER THAT YOUR WORD IS LIVING AND ACTIVE, SHARPER THAN ANY TWO EDGED SWORD, PENETRATING EVEN TO DIVIDING SOUL AND SPIRIT (HEBREWS 4:12) AND THAT IT WILL NOT RETURN EMPTY BUT WILL ACCOMPLISH WHAT YOU DESIRE AND ACHIEVE THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH YOU SENT IT (ISA 55:11). JOHN 15:7 SAYS ‘IF YOU REMAIN IN ME AND MY WORDS REMAIN IN YOU, ASK WHATEVER YOU WISH, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN YOU’. THANK YOU FOR __________. THANK YOU THAT HE IS MORE THAN A CONQUEROR IN CHRIST JESUS.

YOU KNOW WHAT IS NECESSARY. LORD, I SUBMIT __________ INTO YOUR HANDS. YOU FRAMED HIM. YOU KNOW HIS THOUGHTS AND HIS WAYS. LORD I PRAY HE WILL SUBMIT HIMSELF TO YOU (JAMES 4:7-8). THAT HE WILL BE FILLED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD AND WISDOM. THAT HE WILL INCLINE HIS EAR TO YOUR SAYINGS, KEEP THEM IN THE CENTRE OF HIS HEART, AND PUT A FROWARD MOUTH FROM HIM. THAT IN ALL HIS WAYS HE WOULD ACKNOWLEDGE YOU AND YOU WOULD DIRECT HIS PATHS AND MAKE THEM STRAIGHT. THAT HE WOULD HUMBLE HIMSELF UNDER YOUR MIGHTY HAND, THAT IN DUE TIME YOU MAY EXALT HIM. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH YOU. LORD, I THANK YOU THAT YOU LEAVE THE 99 SHEEP TO FIND THE ONE SHEEP WHICH HAS GONE ASTRAY. YOU ARE THE GOOD SHEPHERD.

THAT HE BREAK THROUGH THE BARRIERS THAT CHOKE YOUR WORD AND THAT HE WILL GROW STRONGER AND STRONGER IN THE THINGS OF GOD. I CALL HIM A MIGHTY MAN OF VALOUR, A MAN AFTER GOD’S OWN HEART. THANK YOU LORD THAT HE WILL GROW STRONG IN FAITH, NOTHING WAVERING AND WILL SERVE YOU ONLY, NOT LOOKING TO THE LEFT NOR RIGHT, THAT ALL HIS DAYS ON THIS EARTH MAY BE A PLEASING SACRIFICE TO YOU. THAT HE MAY BECOME TRULY A SON OF GOD, WELL PLEASING TO YOU, INGRAFTED IN THE VINE, LACKING NOTHING, GROWING MATURE IN CHARACTER, AND THAT HE MIGHT WALK IN YOUR PERFECT WILL AND ABUNDANCE FROM GLORY TO GLORY AND FULFIL THAT WHICH YOU HAVE CALLED HIM TO BE. ALMIGHTY GOD, I ASK MOST OF ALL THAT YOU PUT IN HIM A NEW HEART, A NEW SPIRIT, THAT HE WOULD LOVE THE LORD HIS GOD WITH ALL HIS HEART, MIND AND SOUL AND HIS FELLOW MAN AS HIMSELF. THAT YOU WOULD ALWAYS BE HIS FIRST LOVE. THAT THE TRUTH WOULD SET HIM COMPLETELY FREE, IN JESUS NAME. I THANK YOU THAT YOUR HOLY SPIRIT WOULD ENABLE HIM TO CRY ‘ABBA FATHER’. I THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROMISE THAT YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE HIM NOR FORSAKE HIM. I THANK YOU FATHER THAT YOU WILL REACH OUT TO HIM AND SHOW HIM YOUR GREAT LOVE FOR HIM, AS YOU KNOW HOW. I THANK YOU THAT THE ANGELS ARE MINISTERING SPIRITS SENT TO SERVE THOSE THAT WILL INHERIT SALVATION (HEB 1:4) AND THAT YOU WILL SEND THEM OUT. TO GOD BE THE GLORY FOREVER AND EVER. AMEN.

HE BROUGHT VICTORY

THERE WAS WAR IN HEAVEN

SATAN FELL LIKE LIGHTNING

AND HIS ANGELS WITH HIM

THE POWERS OF DARKNESS OPENLY LOST

AN OPEN SPECTACLE WAS MADE OF THEM

TRIUMPHING OVER THEM AT THE CROSS

THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD WAS DRIVEN OUT

EVER HEARING, BUT NEVER UNDERSTANDING

EVER SEEING, BUT NEVER PERCEIVING

CALLOUSED HEARTS

EARS THAT HARDLY HEAR

CLOSING THEIR EYES

THE WISE WALK WITH EYES IN THEIR HEADS

BUT THE FOOLS WALK IN DARKNESS

ARISE, SHINE, FOR YOUR LIGHT HAS COME

AND THE GLORY OF THE LORD

RISES UPON YOU

DO NOT REJECT THE LORD ALMIGHTY

WHEN HE SPEAKS TO YOU

OR ONE DAY HE WILL SAY

IT IS TOO LATE

FINAL JUDGEMENT IS SET

YOU CHOSE TO REJECT

THE WORD OF THE LIVING LORD

WHO CAME DOWN TO YOU

ALL DAY LONG HE HOLDS OUT HIS HANDS

TO A STUBBORN, REBELLIOUS PEOPLE

LET HIM IN

AND SUP WITH HIM

PITIFUL, POOR AND BLIND WAS I

NAKED AND WRETCHED HUMANITY

BUT HE COUNSELLED ME

TO BUY GOLD REFINED IN THE FIRE

WHITE CLOTHES TO COVER ME

SALVE TO PUT ON MY EYES

SO I COULD SEE

BLESSED ARE THOSE

WHOSE ROBES

ARE WASHED IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB

THE SON OF GOD WHO DIED FOR ME

THAT THEY MAY HAVE THE RIGHT

TO THE TREE OF LIFE

AND GO INTO THE CITY

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD

THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON

THAT WHOSOEVER - WHOSOEVER MEANS WHOSOEVER -

WOULD BELIEVE IN HIM

WOULD NOT PERISH FOREVER

BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE

AND THAT LIFE IS ONLY FOUND IN THE SON OF GOD

JESUS CHRIST

BLESSED ARE MY EYES BECAUSE I SEE

MY EARS BECAUSE I HEAR

MY HEART BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND

DRAW NEAR TO GOD, DRAW NEAR.
