Spiritual Warfare on Earth - Derek Prince

so much god bless you all last night if i remember rightly and my memories getting a bit overfilled we dealt with spiritual warfare in the heavenlies i can't go back over that but tonight we're going to go further and we're going to do with spiritual warfare on earth and primarily the persons with whom we make warfare on earth are demons or evil spirits and that's what we're going to talk about in a basic and practical way tonight but i think it would be appropriate for me to begin with a brief up-to-date personal testimony in september

of last year i was living with one of my married daughters my only arab daughter in the uk and i went for a medical checkup and was referred to a what they call in england a consultant the top medical rank and i was diagnosed with cancer of the bladder this was a very thorough diagnosis with a cystoscopy an internal inspection and furthermore they told me it was a dangerous form of cancer because it was liable to spread to other parts of the body well i was not afraid i felt somehow that god was in control

and i was living with my my one of my married daughters as i said and she had a friend the family had a friend who was a curate i don't think most americans know what a cure it is a cure it is about the lowest run of the official limb of the um what do you call it anglican church what you call it here in the episcopal church thank you um jeff whom you've just been listening to is the son of an episcopal minister so i turned to him for accurate information so i was with

my daughter in my daughter's house and we had a phone call from a young man i curate in the anglican church young enough to be my grandson and he said i would like to come and pray for you may i come so of course i said yes you're welcome he was a little timid he sat at the opposite end of the living room and after a while i said to him now i want to understand i'm not necessarily expecting that if you pray for me i'll instantly be totally healed of cancer but come and pray

anyhow so he came i was sitting in a chair he stood beside me put his hand on my shoulder and began to pray and it was like i can only say like cats fighting inside my chest i have never experienced such intense conflict within me and i let out a loud prolonged sustained roar not just a shout it was a raw and at that moment i knew that i had been delivered from a demon of cancer [Applause] now about six months later as far as i know there is no evidence of cancer anywhere in my

body so i want to encourage you it pays to get delivered from demons don't be embarrassed don't be fearful just accept what god has for you now i want to turn to the pattern of the ministry of jesus in this particular aspect of deliverance from evil spirits and i want to read from mark chapter one a description of the beginning of the ministry of jesus beginning at verse 21 mark 1 21 then they went into capernaum and immediately on the sabbath he entered the synagogue and taught and they were astonished at his teaching he taught

them as one having authority and not as the scribes now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit the greek says in an unclean spirit and i want to suggest to you that that man had probably been attending the synagogue like a good religious jew for many many many years but it says and he and if you read it carefully it's not the man it's the spirit he cried out saying let us alone what have we to do with you jesus of nazareth did you come to destroy us i know who you

are the holy one of god now it's a remarkable fact that the demon in the man immediately knew who jesus was it took his disciples about 12 months to discover what the demon already knew so we're dealing with people with supernatural knowledge but jesus rebuked him saying be quiet the greek says be muzzled and come out of him now jesus was not speaking to the man he was speaking to the demon in the man it's very important to see that there comes a point when we don't deal with people we deal with the demons in

people whether they're in us or in other people and when the unclean spirit had convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice he came out of him you see you have two persons he the demon came out of him the man so there was more than one person there there was the man and there was the person of the demon or the evil spirit in the man and jesus did not deal with the man he dealt with the demon in the man and he was not embarrassed now that kind of behavior took place in

some churches including pentecostal churches you know what they do they'd lead the man out and put him in the basement and make one of the deacons take care of him and i'm not theorizing i've seen that happen thank god we don't have to take the man out of the church we have to take the demon out of the man and let the man stay in the church dennis says they were all amazed so that they questioned among themselves what saying what is this a new doctrine with authority commands even the unclean spirits and they obey

him and immediately his fame spread throughout all the region around galilee i want to point out to you that jesus was not first acknowledged as the son of god on the messiah what first attracted people to him was he had power to deal with demons and that caused his reputation to go all around that whole area and then we read a little further on in verse 32 to 34. now at evening when the sun had said they brought to him all they were sick and those who were demon-possessed now demon possessed is a bad translation

and i'm really upset with the niv which in many ways has modernized english that they've gone back to this old-fashioned religious language demon possessed and i'll tell you why i object to it because the word possessed suggests ownership if your you're demon-possessed then you're owned by a demon now i don't believe that any born-again sincere christian can be owned by a demon i do not believe any sincere born-again christian can be demon-possessed but the greek word that's used can easily be and should be translated demonized and i do believe that many born-again christians are still

demonized that is there are areas in their personality where the holy spirit is not yet in complete control there's a demon that has to be dealt with and jesus did it they brought to him all he was sick and those who were demonized and noticed they didn't really come for healing for deliverance they came for healing but in receiving healing many of them needed deliverance from demons and then it goes on when he healed many he was sick with various diseases and cast out many demons and he did not allow the demons to speak or

to say that they knew him you see the demons all knew who jesus was and he cast out many demons how many of you have cast out many demons i don't ask for a demonstration i just want you how far are we up to the standard of jesus how far are we below the standard and the pattern of jesus you say well they were not christians that's true they were jews but actually they were living basically by the law of moses and in most cases they were living much more righteous lives than most of the

people in the united states today they the penalty for adultery was death if that penalty were imposed on the american population today we'd lose about a quarter of our people immediately is that right i'm not exaggerating am i so don't say well those were people that didn't know righteousness many people say well i'm sure there are people who need to be delivered from demons but they're in prisons or they're in lunatic asylums that's not true demons actually can be very comfortable in many churches and then we go on in mark chapter 1 verse 39 and

he was preaching in their synagogues throughout throughout all galilee and casting out demons he did two things he preached and he cast out demons he didn't just preach he preached and he dealt with the people's problems now when god brought me into this ministry for quite a while for two or three years at least i was doing exactly that all around america i was preaching and casting out demons and i was not embarrassed because i can't improve on jesus the best i can do is to do as much as he did so i want you

to understand this is a regular part of the christian ministry it's a regular part of the ministry of jesus it's not something extreme or fanatical it's just doing what jesus did the way he did it let's look for also in mark in luke 13 for a moment verses 31 and 32 on that very day some pharisees came to jesus saying get out and depart from here for herod wants to kill you and he jesus said to them go tell that fox that's herald he was not really too polite in some respects go tell that fox

behold i cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow and the third day i shall be perfected in other words jesus said all through my earthly ministry i'm going to do two things i'm going to cast out demons and i'm going to heal the sick he started that way he continued that way and he concluded that way that is the pattern of the earthly ministry of jesus i personally have no ambition to improve of it if i can do even small part of what he did i'll be satisfied now there's a very important significance

about this particular ministry of casting out demons if you read the old testament i think you'll find that almost all the miracles that were performed in the new were performed in the old they raised the dead they healed the sick they fed multitudes but there's one thing they never did they never cast out demons you cannot find an example of it anywhere in the old testament and in matthew chapter 12 and verse 28 jesus said and if i cast out demons by the spirit of god surely the kingdom of god has come upon you so

his casting out of demons was a distinctive sign that the kingdom of god had come it was a miracle that was not reformed as far as we know in the old testament it's a distinctive declaration the kingdom of god has come and really the casting about demons is war between two kingdoms the kingdom of god the kingdom of satan and jesus demonstrated the victory of the kingdom of god by casting out demons now let's read the instructions that jesus gave to his disciples in matthew chapter 10 verses 7 and 8. we can't go into the

background we don't have time but he said this as you go preach saying the kingdom of heaven is at hand heal the sick cleanse the lepers raise the dead cast out demons freely you have received freely give so jesus said you've got to do four things heal the sick cleanse the leopards raise the dead cast out demons that was part of their total ministry everywhere they went now you say brother prince have you seen the dead raised the answer is yes i have in east africa when i was principal of a college for training african

teachers two of my students died and were raised from the den and they each gave a very interesting testimony of what happened to their spirit when it was out of their body and what happened when the spirit returned to their body i just say that because some people say well people don't raise the dead the answer is people do raise the name they don't raise all the dead but they raise the dead when it's god's purpose that the dead should be raised all right so let's take those instructions once more there's a seven and eight

as you go preach saying the kingdom of heaven is dead however it is not enough to preach you have to demonstrate the validity of what you're preaching so jesus says heal the sick cleanse the lepers raise the dead cast out demons four things one of them is casting out demons and then in mark 16 at the end of the gospel record jesus gave final this instructions after his resurrection to all who were to go out and preach the gospel mark 16 beginning at verse 15. he said to them go into all the world and preach

the gospel to every creature he who believes and is baptized will be saved but he who does not believe will be condemned and these signs will follow or accompany those who have believed in my name they will cast out demons they will speak with new tongues let's stop there how many have heard about speaking with new tongues everybody here it's a very popular subject but how many have heard about casting out demons how many have seen it practiced great praise god you're a rather exceptional congregation but i want to point out the first supernatural sign

was not speaking with tongues it was casting out demons see we have kind of gaps in our theology and our practice we do some of the things and not others but the way jesus told us to do it is the right way now let's consider how they obeyed during the earthly ministry of jesus in luke chapter 10 verses 17-20 he had sent out 70 or 72 to prepare the way before him then they returned with joy saying lord even the demons are subject to us in your name that was the thing that excited the most

you see that was the new thing healing was not new miraculous provision was not new but to have authority over demons in the name of jesus that was exciting and jesus said to them behold i give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt you i want to emphasize that here tonight because we're going to go into action later on nothing shall by any means hurt you do not get frightened demons have no power against a true believer who understands

his friends and then one of the most interesting examples is in acts chapter eight how many of you know that there's only one person in the new testament who's actually called an evangelist you know that do you know who he is phillip that's right he's the only person who is actually designated an evangelist and his ministry is described in acts chapter eight therefore you could say his ministry is the pattern ministry of the evangelist and it says in acts 8 verse 5 then philip went down to a city of samaria and preached christ to them

i'm so glad he didn't have complicated theology he preached christ an evangelist message is very simple in samaria he preached christ when he met the eunuch later on the road to gaza he preached jesus that's an evangelist message christ jesus and the multitudes with one accord he did the things spoken by phillip hearing and seeing the miracles which he did now philip didn't have a committee he didn't have a sponsoring church he didn't have an auditorium he didn't have a trained choir i mean all those things are good but they're not essential what's essential is

preach the gospel with signs following and you will always get a crowd you don't have to invest in all the expense of an auditorium or a choir or all that i had a young friend an african friend in east africa who was an evangelist and he said brother prince there's no problem about getting a crowd in in in africa he said i walk into a village and ask how many sick people are on the village they bring them i praise them they're healed and i get my crowd he said i don't have to do anything

more that is new testament evangelism i'm not criticizing other ways of doing it but they're more elaborate they're more expensive emma all right we're going on then philip went down to the city to mary and preached christ or the messiah to them and the multitudes with one accord he did the things spoken by finland hearing and seeing the miracles which he did what attracted the crowd in one word miracles that's right miracles are not optional they're not accessories they're an essential part of the ministry of evangelism i i emphasize again there's only one person actually

titled an evangelist in the whole new testament it's philly if he isn't a pattern we don't have a pattern now what kind of miracles happen unclean spirits crying with a loud voice came out of many who were it says possessed but that's wrong who were demonized and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed and there was great joy in that city so that is the ministry of the evangelist it's to preach christ the messiah to preach jesus a message are tested by supernatural signs healing the sick casting out demons and you'll get your crown

i mean that's it never fails you may get opposition too but that's part of the whole package deal but i want you to notice that they did not maintain an atmosphere of solemn dignity in their meetings i grew up in the anglican church and i don't know many things i respect in the ancient church but you kind of tiptoed into church you sat down quietly you didn't raise your voice nobody did anything very unusual it was all very sedate and nicely ordered and all those people that came in in their nice sunday costumes they said

these beautiful words i mean the angry prayer book has got some of the most beautiful spiritual words but as a boy watching them and listening to what they said as they walked out of church i asked myself did they really believe what they were saying i couldn't answer the question i remember thinking to myself you know this dignified lady here if she dropped her lace handkerchief and i ran after her and picked it up she'd be more excited about getting a handkerchief back than she was about all the things she said in the litany liturgy

so i just want to point out there's dignity and dignity there's religious religious dignity which is often a cover-up for demons i mean i was in a i was in a meeting and this grieves me tremendously i was in meeting of a very well-known american evangelist if i gave you her name everybody would know it she was to some extent a little a little while a friend of mine but in one of her meetings a black woman began to demonstrate very clearly demon activity and you know what they did two men came poured by the

arms and carried her out that's all they did that's a tragedy she desperately needed the ministry of the evangelist that she would evangelist was afraid it would upset her reputation people wouldn't come to her meetings i think she was wrong i think more people would have come actually i respect her she's with the lord now but i always remained in my memory this desperate black woman crying out for help couldn't contain herself and was dumped that's all they did with her they just put her out when i dealt with a demon in one woman in

a church one of the church ladies came up to me and said brother prince you know what they've done in most churches they really said our sister needs help will one of the deacons take her down to the basement that's not the biblical solution she needs help but not in the basement now i want to just give you a brief description of what demons are as i understand it my understanding is limited uh but i'll give you the best i have i think the best thing to say is that they are persons without bodies demons

have real personality they have distinctive personalities one demon is not exactly like another i remember something so vivid i was dealing with a man his wife had come to me and said brother prince my husband needs deliverance and i made his mistake i prayed for him on the basis of what his wife asked you see i never have done that again if he needs deliverance let him tell me he needs to live when i started to pray for the man and he started to get violent and his wife drew me aside and said brother prince

at home he throws chairs at me so i said well why didn't you tell me that before we started anyhow the demons were speaking out of the man and one of them said i'm unclean and i thought now i don't want to embarrass the man in front of his wife i could think of all sorts of unclean things that might be the problem but i said you uncle you spirit of unclean thoughts come out of the man he said that's not my name i said come out anyhow he said that's not my name i mean

you can't easily understand how much of an individual a demon is it wanted to be recognized by the right name well eventually it came out but the last thing it said before it came out was that's not my name [Laughter] i'm trying to impress upon you the fact we're dealing with real persons with characteristic attributes i have already pointed out but i'll say again two things first of all the word is not devil the word devil comes from the greek word diablos which means a slanderer and is a title of satan himself the things we

are dealing with are dymonions demons and they are not devils they are another kind of being where do they come from well i don't believe anybody has an absolutely authoritative answer in my thinking the most probable explanation is they are disembodied spirits of a pre-adamic race that perished under the judgment of god between genesis 1 1 and genesis 1 2. i'm glad to discover that our pastor more or less thinks the same am i right good thank you that's encouraging i mean we may be wrong but that's the best that i can come up with

but the most distinctive fact about demons is they desperately crave to occupy a body they are not satisfied until they get inside a body preferably they would occupy the body of a man or a woman but rather than be disembodied they would rather go into the body of pigs because you remember the man of gadara the demons said sent us into the pigs we don't want to be disembodied what they didn't realize was that going into the pigs would cause the death of the pigs and they were left after that with the same problem again

but what i'm trying to deal with is you're dealing with a person who hasn't got a body and desperately craves to be in a body because as i believe only through a body can they exercise their ungodly lusts if it's a demon of alcohol it has to have a human throat through which to consume if it's a demon of sexual immorality it has to have sexual organs to which it can operate if it's a demon of hatred it has to have emotions that it can play upon to work through in other words we are surrounded

by an invisible host of persons without bodies desperately craving to occupy bodies and desperately struggling not to be out of bodies now i think i need to say a little bit briefly how i became involved i did not volunteer for this ministry i was conscripted first of all when i became a pastor of a very small pentecostal congregation in west london in the early 1950s i had a serious ongoing problem with depression i know none of you have ever struggled with depression but be patient with me i did and it threatened to destroy my ministry

because i had this continual sense i'm a failure i won't succeed i can't do it and i struggled and struggled i did not know the answer but i was directed to a passage in isaiah chapter 61. what i thank god for is i always had the bible and i always turned to the bible and i always accepted the bible as authoritative and final that has protected me and preserved me through many different problems and situations but it's this famous passage which jesus quoted in the synagogue in nazareth isaiah chapter 61. the spirit of the lord

god is upon me because he has anointed me to reach good tidings to the poor he sent me to heal the brokenhearted referring liberty to the captives and the opening of the prison to those who are born to proclaim the acceptable yield of the lord the dead vengeance of our god to comfort all who mourn to console those who mourn his own to give them beauty for ashes the oil of joy for mourning the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness and as i was reading that passage god showed me that's your problem it's

a spirit of heaviness a spirit of grief an unhappy spirit and let me tell you the the protection is a garment of praise when you wear a garment of praise that spirit cannot have access to you but i had grown up i can't go into all my background and i have exposed myself in many ways to demons and there was this spirit of heaviness then god brought to me the passage in joel chapter 2 verse 32 whosoever shall call on the name of the lord shall be delivered and so in my desperation all alone i

called on the name of the lord i said lord deliver me from this spirit of heaviness and something stirred inside me in my chest i let out a kind of mixture of a sob and a groan and i felt something like a dark cloud lifting from and i realized i had been delivered from a spirit of heaviness or a spirit of mourning or a spirit of grief but that didn't immediately plunge me into the public ministry it was later on when i was in seattle washington pastoring another small pentecostal church and i was involved with

a lot with the full gospel businessman one day a baptist pastor phoned me and he said brother prince i have a woman in my congregation who needs deliverance from demons well i wasn't used to baptist pastors saying things like that but what he said after that was still more astonishing he said god has shown me that you and your wife are to be the instruments of her deliverance well i don't let people's revelation dictate to me so i sent a quick telegram up to heaven what what about it and i got the answer mom this

is from me so i said all right i made an appointment bring the woman and we'll do our best well we chose we chose a saturday morning and at that time i just become friends with a presbyterian couple who had just been baptized in the holy spirit and while we were waiting for the baptist lady to come the presbyterian couple turned up so we said well you might as well stay we don't know what's going to happen but it could be exciting well along comes the baptist pastor with this lady who had been the secretary

of the church at one time she was aged about 35 i would say she was a perfectly normal american housewife i scanned her from every angle i couldn't see anything strange about it no metallic tone in her voice no fire in her eyes just an organ baptist good baptist so but the pastor was convinced so he sat her down in the chair and he said now she's already been delivered from a demon of nicotine i thought she has and but he said there are others so he stood in front of her and started to shout

at the demons well i learned by experience later that you don't get any more power by shouting demons are not death even spirits of deafness are not death you don't need to shout and it's wasting energy anyhow he stood there and shouted at this demon i command you to come out and nothing seemed to happen then he said in the name of jesus i command you to come out and the woman's face changed a different expression came over her face when he stood there quite a long while and didn't get any further so he stepped

back and i thought well if he can do it i can do it so i stood in front of the woman and i had all the theology i said now you spirit that's in this woman i'm speaking to you and not to the woman what is your name and it wouldn't answer so i said i command you in the name of jesus to answer what is your name and we went on like this for a while and suddenly it answered before he dancing she changed she crossed her hands over her throat and started to throttle

herself and i had this stage and suddenly the demon responded my name is hate and when it said hate every feature of the woman's face registered the most unutterable hatred i'd never seen such pure hatred in anybody's eyes so i said you demon of hate come out of this woman and this gruff masculine voice answered out of the woman i'm not coming out this is my house i've lived here 35 years and i'm not coming out well i checked everything with the bible mentally i thought that's right jesus said when the unclean spirit has gone

out of a man it goes through dry places seeking rest then it says i will return to my house from which i went out so that's scriptural so we i beat it down with the name of jesus and with scripture and suddenly it came out with a loud prolonged roar and as it came out the woman slumped forward relaxed and this tension in me subsided i knew it had gone but the demon had said before it came out even if i come out my brothers are here and they'll kill her so i knew there was

more than one demon so anyhow we went through this it must have lasted two or three hours and about seven or eight different spirits came out one that really impressed me was self-pity and i began to understand some of the ways people respond that are not natural the last spirit that came out was a spirit of death and again i checked i thought is this scriptural i thought death is a physical condition but then i remembered in revelation chapter six there was a rider on a horse his name was death so death can be a

person well when the spirit of death came out this woman was stretched out on her back on the floor absolutely limp her face was totally pale there was no color her skin was was cold if you had come in and looked at her you would have said there's a dead person on the floor well she lay there for about 10 minutes and put her arms up in the air and started to speak in tongues now one of the things the demons had said i had said how did you come into this woman and it said

that is death i said when did you come into this woman it said three and a half years ago when she nearly died on the operating table i stored all this up well then the woman was apparently delivered so i delivered her back to the baptist pastor and he drove her off about halfway through the week the woman phoned lydia and me and said i think they're trying to come back can you come and help me so we drove out to the home talked with the woman and i diagnosed that it was fear that she

was afraid they would come back and this was opening the door but while we were there she had a little daughter of six who was a shy thin rather unhappy looking little girl and everywhere we walked she walked with us but every time i looked at her she averted her eyes she would not look me in the eyes so i said to the mother you know i think your daughter has some of the same problems you have she said when you pray for her i said by all mean so the next saturday morning we had

an order there and basically we went through much of the same with the daughter as with the mother most of the same spirits that were in the door in the mother came out of the door not all of them but hate was one and death was once and when the death came out of the little girl she was stretched flat on the on her back on the floor looking like a dead person so i checked on them for about two years apparently they remained free the little girl had been graded [ __ ] she became

a normal happy healthy little girl [Applause] well then gradually by stages the lord launched me into a ministry of mass deliverance and i've conducted ministries of that kind in russia and kazakhstan in turkey in new zealand in australia in at least a dozen nations and i discovered that you can do it on mass i'm not saying it's the best way but when the needs are so desperate you have to do what you can and i've learned to instruct people help them to identify their problem show them how to be delivered and pray for them they

will be delivered and i'm willing to do that here tonight later on if by any chance any of you should happen to need it now i want to answer some of the common questions how do they come in and my answer is usually through a moment or a place of weakness the devil searches for the weak moment of the weak place to come in that's exactly how you were describing the man that had the viper that came there wasn't it yeah that's vivid i can't go into it anymore now what are the moments or places

of weakness this is not an exhaustive list but it will give you some understanding first of all pre-natal many infants are born with a demon in them and it happens because of something that the mother did or didn't do and the greatest single problem that exposes children to demons unborn children his involvement in the occult and i want to say you cannot get involved in the occult in any form without being exposed to demons there was a proverb that used to say he he who sups with the devil needs a spoon with a long handle

i want to tell you there is no spoon made with a handle long enough to make it safe to sep sup with the devil and i want to read from deuteronomy chapter 18 in the niv because the language is more up-to-date this is what god says about the occult that is involvement with any kind of spirits that aren't spirits from god uh it's it's written to to israel before they enter the land deuteronomy chapter 18 verse nine when you enter the land your the lord your god is giving you do not learn to imitate the

detestable ways of the nations there let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire so the first kind of person is those who actually make their own children living sacrifices presenting them in a furnace to the god money and i want you to understand it's very important all the other practices that follow are in the same category with offering your infant as a sacrifice demonic god doesn't put any distinction let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter who practices divination or sorcery you know

what divination is fortune telling it's trying to discern something supernaturally by a spirit that is not from god every fortune teller is a diviner if you've ever been to a fortune teller you've been exposed to a spirit of divination i remember dealing with a woman who needed spirit deliverance from the spirit of elimination she said i can't understand how it ever came into me but i discovered that in the newspaper she regularly read the horoscope pages that's all you need to do none of you i know ever did that who practices divination or software interprets

omens engages in witchcraft which is rampant in the united states today from the top of the nation downward from the white house downwards witchcraft is rampant or who cast spells or is a medium or a spiritist or consults the dead anyone who does these things is detestable to the lord and because of these detestable practices the lord your god will drive out those nations before you you must be blameless before the lord your god anyone who does any of those things is detestable if you go to a fortune teller that's detestable god puts it in

the same category with people who offer their infants and sacrifices to a to an evil god you might say well what's wrong with the occult i'll try to explain it this way when you get involved in the occult you're making friends with god's enemies and god takes note of that and you have to repent and you have to cancel any involvement if you want help from god so that's let me give you an example and mark a remarkable example that happened fairly recently a woman a very fine christian woman came to me with real grief

she said we just had a letter from my son who's at college telling us that he's been homosexual from the womb that he was born a homosexual so i began to talk to her and i said when you were pregnant with your son did you do anything that's otto well she said yes i tried to divine whether it was male or female boy or girl i had a pendulum suspended in front of my womb and i knew if it went one way it was a boy and another way it was a girl i said to

her you exposed your unborn son to a demon by what you did that's why he's homosexual from birth now she's a very solid christian woman she understood she repented and i believe in due course her prayers will bring deliverance to her son but let that be a warning to you you cannot fool around with the occult in any form or shape and if you want a further definition of the alcohol it's in my book i have another very common demon that enters unborn children is the demon of rejection um see every little baby comes into

the world craving one thing more than anything else which is what love that's right but you see the mother has got too many children she hasn't got enough income she discovers she's pregnant and she regrets it she doesn't have to say anything she just says i wish i didn't wasn't going to have this baby that baby is born with a spirit of rejection now this is true of my second wife ruth she was born in the height of the depression in 1930 she was the eighth child and her mother was already struggling to feed the

seven previous children and without saying anything the mother resented having another mouth to feed and ruth had to be delivered from a spirit of rejection thank god we knew what to do and she was wonderfully delivered but rejection is one of the commonest demons and it enters very frequently while a person is still in his mother's womb then there are pressures in early childhood james chapter 3 and verse 16 says this james 3 16 for where envy and self-seeking exist confusion and every evil thing will be there so in a strife-torn disharmonious home the children

born or unborn are automatically exposed to demons and most children do not have strong enough defenses to keep the demons out so any child born in an unhappy strife torn divided home is exposed to demons how many such homes are there in the united states today there are many aren't there see parents are responsible to maintain an atmosphere in their homes in which the children can grow up free from demonic molestation but very few parents in contemporary america are doing it that's one reason why i wrote my book husbands and fathers because the number one

failure in american culture is the husband and the father and everything ultimately revolves around him it's wonderful what wives and mothers can do but no wife and mother is a substitute for the father and the greatest single need of america today is men who are real farmers amen come on you ladies you say amen that's right i have been married to two wonderful women i am not a woman hater never was and never will be and i admire women in fact i'm jealous for women i want the best for them i hate to see them

prostituting themselves to the world i have high standards for women i know what a woman can be now please don't misunderstand me when i say we need fathers i'm not saying we don't need mothers but that we have more good mothers than we have good fathers today i don't want to go into it because that's in the book if you want it you can get it there but many many children in contemporary america are exposed to demons in early childhood and most of them do not have the spiritual defenses to keep them out then there's

what i call emotional shock or continued emotional pressure i remember a woman telling me once she needed to be delivered from a spirit of fear i said how did it enter when she said i was standing on the sidewalk and a terrible accident happened in front of me and at that moment i was seized with fear and i realized the demon of fear entered me now let me give you a scripture about that in 1 peter chapter 3 and verse 6 this is speaking about christian women as sarah obeyed abraham calling him lord whose daughters

you are if you do good and are not afraid with any terror so to be a daughter of sarah you have to be not afraid with any terror you have not to give way to sudden emotional shock but if you do it's very possible that a demon will enter then another way that come they come which is obvious is sinful acts or habits if you continually indulge in a sinful act repeating it sooner or later and maybe sooner than later the demon of that act will enter you if you continually in give way to sinful

habits or foolish habits i was praying in a church once and a woman came up to me and there were several other people around them she said whatever she said i said i think you have a demon of criticism you want me to cast it out she said yes i said you demon of criticism come out but about three people all around started to get delivered at the same time criticism is a sinful habit and can expose you to demons let me talk about one that nobody talks about in church so because people don't talk

about it in church church goers have to go to a psychiatrist for help but i'm talking about masturbation now some people say masturbation is natural it's not evil i don't agree but you're free to have your opinion but what i do know is there are masses and masses of people who regularly masturbate and hate themselves for doing it and they say never again and a little while later they're doing the same thing again now that is a demon it's a demon of masturbation and because i don't want to embarrass you later i'll tell you how

it will come out it will come out of your hands and your fingers and you feel this tingling in your fingers your fingers will begin to go stiff and maybe bend backwards i've seen this happen many times a person will come up with his brother and so don't say what understand what's happening to me my fingers are tingling and they're burning me i say you have a demon a masturbation hate it get rid of it and i want to tell you masturbation will not go out unless you hate it you have to really hate it

but you might say i'm a married man and happily married thank god you are but i have cast a demon of masturbation out of a man of 50 who was married but he still was a slave to masturbation and let me speak to you frankly for a moment what happens when a married partner has masturbation demon is the satisfaction from the sexual act that the other person should get goes to the demon and not to the person can you understand what i'm saying i hope you can i'm trying to be frank without offensive and then

there's another very very common way that demons entered enter and that is through idle words and i want to read to you what jesus says in matthew chapter 12 about idol words verse 36 but i say to you that every idol word men may speak they will give account of it in the day of judgment people often say well i didn't really mean it that's exactly what jesus says that's an idol word any words you speak you don't really mean are idle and whether you intended or not one day unless you repent you're going to

have a give account for them in the day of judgment every idle word people so often say to me well brother prince i didn't really mean it i said that's precisely what it is it's an idol word it's a word you didn't mean and i cannot tell you how many people i've dealt with who have a spirit of death because they invited it in they got depressed or discouraged they said well i might as well be dead what's the use of living i'd be better off dead that's all you have to say the demon of

death is right there in front of me it will enter many times i'm not saying always so that's how they come in i'm just going to repeat it that's not everything number one prenatal an attitude in the mother that makes the baby feel unwelcome pressures in early childhood children that grow up in strife torn homes are automatically exposed to demons emotional shock or sustained emotional pressure sinful acts or habits and idle words now that's not a comprehensive list but it gives you some idea of the way that demons come in now i want to list

characteristic activities of demons you can take notes but if you want to buy this book they're all there and i'm not trying to sell the book i'm just trying to save you the trouble of taking notes when you get it print number one demons entice they entice us to do evil they entice us to sin take an example you're walking along the street and somebody's drunk their billfold full of money and a voice says to you and an inaudible voice says pick it up you might as well if it was yours they will do it

why don't you but anything that can speak is a person and behind that inaudible voice is a person and that person is enticing you to do evil you may not follow it you may resist but nevertheless that demon is there trying to get you to do something which will expose you to him then demons harass and the example i always think of is this businessman who's had a terrible day in the office the air conditioning failed he secretly did the wrong thing he had a client who was complaining and threatening to sue him when he

makes it through the day he gets into his car to drive home and there's an accident on the freeway and he sits there for one hour without air conditioning on the freeway stewie and i mean he's getting hotter and hotter and hotter he gets home and what happens his wife is late with that supper the kids are running around screaming and as they say in america he blows his stack at that moment the demon of anger enters him see it's been following him around all day just waiting for that moment of weakness to come in

and after that he's a different person he still loves his wife and children dearly and from time to time something comes over him that causes him to do things that harm those he loves the most and from time to time when his wife looks into his eyes she sees something that was never there before what has happened the demon of anger followed him all day and chose the weakest moment in the weakest place and jumped in demons defile they're dirty they're all called unclean they make you feel unclean they fill your mind with dirty unclean

attitudes emotions and thoughts particularly if you're planning to read your bible or worship anything that attacks you at a moment like that is probably a demon and you you never feel really pure you can sing about the blood of jesus how wonderful it is but there's something in you that doesn't respond demons defile demons torture jesus says in matthew 18 the the one who will not forgive his brother or his sister what's the sentence deliver him to what to the torturer that means you and me if we don't forgive if we retain bitterness and resentment

and unforgiveness the sentence of jesus is deliver him to the torturers who are the torturers demons very simple they torture in many ways they torture emotionally they taught you with fear with guilt with the some kind of uneasy feeling that you haven't done the right thing but you can never put your finger on it they torture you physically i've dealt with many people who've been delivered from a spirit of arthritis to me if you look at arthritis that's demonic it twists it tortures it incapacitates now please understand i am not saying that everybody has arthritis

as a demon but many do i recall a scene in south africa some years ago when ruth and i were listening together i've been praying for the sick and a person i think it was a woman came up with arthritis and i said to her i want you to know i'm going to deal with this as a demon is that okay she said yes ruth and i prayed cast the demon out and she was delivered well then i thought to myself why go through this process with everybody individually because everybody's seen and heard it so

i said i believe that you can be delivered from a spirit of arthritis without being individually prayed for so anybody it was a large congregation anybody who needs deliverance from arthritis will you stand up well about 30 people stood up in different places i played a spirit commanding the spirit of arthritis to leave them now i said to the people don't sit down until you know you've been delivered and we went on ministering but after about half an hour every one of those people had sat down later on ruth and i traveled in various parts

of south africa we met several people who'd been the ones that stood up and sat down and they each testified they'd been healed now please understand i'm not saying all arthritis is demonic but i if you want to get a real picture of what demons are like arthritis is a pretty good picture they torment they torture they incapacitate they bind they are evil things and again this there are exceptions but it's surprising how many people who suffer from arthritis have some kind of bitterness or resentment or unforgiveness in their life i need no say no

more please don't get offended if you have arthritis it doesn't mean you have a demon but if you do have a demon get rid of it then number five demons compel they make you do things you don't really want to do i would say almost any act or habit that is compulsive is probably demonic not necessarily demons also enslave they make you slaves take the demon of alcohol it enslaves you you just cannot do without your glass of whiskey you know it is harmful you don't really enjoy it you can't help yourself but people can

be enslaved by other things they can be enslaved by television you know that you can be an addict to television some television addicts walk into a room the first thing they do switch on the television they don't know what programs are they don't know what to watch but they're just as compulsive as a person who reaches for a glass of whiskey and drinks it now put compulsion and enslaving together you get addiction and our contemporary culture is full of addictions and i would say 99.9 of them are demonic let me give you a scripture from

first corinthians chapter 6. this is for me the biblical definition of addiction verse 12 all things are lawful for me but all things are not help not helpful i would prefer to say beneficial so all things are lawful i'm not any law which says i shall not eat and i shall not do this and then but not everything is beneficial all things are lawful for me but i will not be brought under the power of any food for the stomach and the stomach for foods but god will destroy both it and then now the body

is not for sexual immorality but for the lord and the lord for the body so overeating and sexual immorality are specifically mentioned by paul as possible examples of addictions and an addict is a slave and i'm sorry to say the church is full of addicts not all of them are addicts but there are many many good christians who are nevertheless slaves slaves of masturbation slaves of idle talk slaves of defiling habits slaves of wrong attitudes slaves of wrong eating and drinking i have come to see that my body is a temple for the holy spirit

and i'm responsible for how i treat that temple i am not free to defile it i'm not free to do anything that would make it less good than it should be i am very careful about what i eat and what i drink i'm not under any law but i try to honor god's temple how about you are you taking care of your temple if it were a physical material temple you'd be very careful about it wouldn't you i mean you'd keep it swept you keep the windows clean you wouldn't buy dust accumulate you wouldn't get

the toilet get clogged what about your physical temple how well are you maintaining that let me say this and it's just i make no extra charge for it i came to the united states in the 1960s and i i myself this is my personal subjective impression there have been three strong men one after the other over this nation that have sought to dominate him the first was rebellion in the 1960s there was an upsurge of rebellion when the bible says rebellion is the sin of witchcraft whenever people get into rebellion they'll get into the occult

so the next demonic force was witchcraft but in my personal subjective judgment those are in the past they're still very active but the number one strong men seeking to dominate the united states today is self-indulgence and whereas both witchcraft and rebellion were regarded as wrong by the church self-indulgence is practiced by the church you can just keep loving me anyhow but somebody said a little while ago to me they said if you want to know the best restaurant in the town ask a preacher it's true i mean it is absolutely true preachers knew know the

best restaurant well i'll go a little further about 1990 i was diagnosed with a serious physical condition and i prayed many times to god i said god i don't understand i believe in healing i preach healing but i'm not healed i've seen many people healed i'm not healed well god didn't give me a definite answer but he gave me a little overview of the way i had been living in previous years and he never said a thing he never made a comment but he just showed me in various situations and you were you know where

most of them were in restaurants and i saw that i had been a slave to self-induction in in first timothy second timothy chapter 1 verse 7 paul says god has not given us a spirit of fear but of power of of love and on self-discipline that's the niv translation everybody wants power everybody wants love how many people want self-discipline you see the holy spirit will not discipline you unless you discipline yourself he won't take over and do the job for you but if you'll make your mind up he'll help you now i mean i have

to be very careful when i say because my tapes get everywhere but i how can i say this i can't because it'll give away the people i'm thinking about but i mourn over people very close to me who are slaves of their stomachs strange silence isn't there and they're destroying themselves and they're defiling the temple in the holy spirit no i'm like somebody said now he's left off preaching he's meddling with other people's business what about coffee coffee is a drug i mean everybody never said now i'm not saying you're addict but i'm saying do

this just stop drinking coffee for 48 hours and see if you're addicted or not you'll find out if you come through it's fine all right but if you cannot do without it then you need to do without it paul said all things are lawful but i will not be brought under the power of anything and really where it boils down to for modern america is eating and drinking that's where we have to say am i under the power of anything and many many good american christians are slaves of their stomachs to call it by the

right name and it's an addiction and it's demonic i'm not saying necessarily you need to be delivered from a demon but check and see and mind you you won't be delivered if you want to keep on doing it all right the final thing that demons do is they make weak or sick and almost every form of sickness can be demonic i'm not saying it is but it can be caused by a demon as i've said arthritis is a very conspicuous example migraine is another complete conspicuous example almost anything that's torturing is demonic i would say

torturing and enslaving all right now we come to [Music] the big question let me say something else about sickness you know i i do sometimes pray for people check their legs how many of you see me do that anybody here that's right okay and very often when i hold a person the leg and it grows out the person will start to contort and twist and behave in a very strange way and i've learned that it's a spirit of crippling i've seen many people delivered from a crippling spirit something that twists deforms in swings in fact

i think i was on the way to being having that problem myself if i hadn't met a good chiropractor i'm willing to take help from anybody that can help me and i thank god for chiropractors i thank god for doctors i'm not against doctors but the best one of all his name is jesus that's right [Applause] now we're coming to the practical questions and i'm going to turn to my own book why should i write it all out when it's all there page 204 and 5. here you are they shall expel demons written out of

personal experience not out of theory and based entirely on scripture and here are the steps for receiving deliverance which i'm going to offer you the possibility to go through briefly step number one personally affirm your faith in christ the scripture says christ is the high priest of our confession it's our confession that releases his high priestly ministry if we make no confession he cannot serve as our high priest he is the high priest of our confession when we say the same about ourselves as god said in his word we release the high priestly ministry of

jesus on our behalf step number two humble yourself god resists the proud but gives grace to the humble and i have not found anywhere in the bible but god says he will humble us always god says you do it humble yourself under the mighty hand of god and he will exalt you in due time humility is a decision and in this myth in this ministry of deliverance you may well have to make a decision between your dignity and your deliverance and if your dignity is more important to you you probably won't get delivered people are

getting delivered are sometimes very undignified but my advice to you is let dignity go and receive deliverance because after you've received deliverance dignity will come back i want to point out to you something very very beautiful out of the scripture there was one person whom god gave a unique honor never given to any other person that was to be the first human witness of the resurrection of jesus and you know who she was merely megan you know what it says about her in mark 16 i want you to notice this mark 16 verse nine now

when he rose only on the first day of the week he appeared first to mary magdalene out of whom he had cast seven demons it all goes in the same passage so she was not inferior because she'd been delivered from seven demons in fact she's the only person who saw jesus alive before he ascended to the father jesus had such compassion on her broken heart that he wouldn't even go to the father until he revealed himself to her to me that's one of the most marvelous illustrations of the compassion of jesus he would he left

his apostles they could wait there was one woman so broken-hearted so much in love with him that he couldn't even leave earth till he revealed himself to her who was it mary magdalene what was her testimony he delivered me out of seven demons brothers and sisters don't be ashamed if you should need deliverance you could be ashamed if you let pride keep you from receiving deliverance all right going back to the book the book number one was personally affirm your faith in christ number two humble yourself number three confess any known sin don't search for

sin but if the holy spirit shows you unconfessed sin confess it i would i think you'll find this is true god has never committed himself to con to forgive sins that we are not willing to confess so you if you want forgiveness you have to be prepared to confess if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unwratches but only if we confess our sin now you're not confessing in order to tell something god he doesn't know because god knows all about your sins

long before you confess them what you're doing is bringing something dark out into the light because as i understand it the blood of jesus does not cleanse in the dark you have to bring it to the light with all its embarrassment but when you bring it to the light the blood is applied and you are cleansed whiter than snow it's worth it and listen we're not talking about confessing our sins to me or to the pastor just confessing your sins to the lord and after all you're not going to be telling him anything he doesn't

already know because he knows all about it but he still loves you but it's his condition that you bring it out into the open repent of all sins it's not enough to re to confess you have to repent the bible says in problems he who covers his sins will not prosper if you keep it covered you will not prosper but he who confesses and forsakes his sin will have mercy so you have to confess and then you have to forsake you may have to throw it away whatever it is you may have to throw it

away it may be expensive but you may have to throw it away repentable since that i don't round in yes forgive on other people now this is absolutely essential if you don't forgive god will not forgive you that's the only comment jesus made at the end of teaching the lord's prayer if you forgive sins god will forgive you if you do not forgive god will not forgive you you have to make your um make up your mind and let me say forgiveness is not an emotion it's a decision you carry in your hand i owe

yous from somebody to you maybe for who knows ten thousand dollars but god in his hand as i o use from you to him but for a thousand hundred thousand dollars god says let's make a deal you tear up your eyes and i'll say that mine but if you don't tear yours up i'll hold on to mine i was teaching this years ago in florida the end of the session a very smartly dressed young woman of about 30 walked right up the aisle to me stood right in front of me said mr prince i just

want to tell you i've got rid of about 30 000 worth of ious turn round and walk out she got the message i mean i didn't have to consult her or counsel her she had got the message so you may have to tear up some ious i've discovered that the two commonest causes why people are not delivered is number one unforgiveness and number two failure to repent so you have to do it then you have to break with the archot and all false religion that's essential and you may have to get rid of occult objects

that are in your house because god told moses if you bring them into your house any accursed object you'll become accursed like the thing some of you got things in your house that bring a curse on objects related to the occult obvious of superstition get rid of them have a house clean let me tell you my own experience my grandfather was the officer in the british army who suppressed what was called the boxer rebellion in china you may not know about it but there was an uprising of the chinese nationalists around about 1900 and something

and the british sent out an expeditionary force under the command of my grandfather that suppressed it i'm not saying it should have been suppressed but that's what they did well my grandfather returned with some rather costly chinese antiques and in due course they were passed through my mother to me and amongst them were four beautiful embroidered chinese dragons i mean they were beautiful and furthermore they had five claws and the dragon with five claws is an imperial dragon so i had them framed and put up on the wall in my living room but when i

began to deal with deliverance the lord had an interview with me he said now tell me in the bible who is represented by a dragon well i didn't have to be a theologian i said the devil he said do you think it's appropriate that you as a preacher would have on the walls of your living living room something that demonstrates or advertises or portrays the devil i got the message so i got rid of them and i want to tell you this i didn't change what i was doing my ministry was exactly the same i

was a traveling bible teacher but in the next year my income doubled [Applause] that is speaking of language you can understand you understand that it wouldn't have doubled if i hadn't taken away the hindrance the barrier to god's blessing so get rid of anything occult let me say one of the most dangerous and supple forms of the occult is freemasonry if you have any relative or you yourself have in any way been involved in freemasonry break it off totally absolutely terminate it get it out of the house don't do maintain any connection with it some

of the most terrible cases of demonization i've seen have been associated with freemasonry so where are we oh i'm reading from the book that's right we've nearly come to the end we're on the point of going into action forgive all other people break with the occult and all false religions and god warned moses said if you bring any of those satanic objects into your home you become a curse like them prepare to be released from every curse of your life we're going to deal with that without going into it jesus was made a curse on

the cross that was the last thing that happened to him that we might be redeemed from every curse and enter into the blessing of abraham whom god blessed in all things there is another book that i have out there called blessing or curse you can choose i think it's the most i may say this the most unique revelation god has given me other people speak about casting out demons i don't know of any other book that deals systematically or thoroughly with the issue of curses many many people in america and britain and europe today don't

believe in curses they think they're superstitious believe me if you go to africa or asia they know curses are real they're just as real here but they're dressed up in nice pretty clothes so you can be released from a curse why because on the cross jesus was made a curse that's the only basis of relief [Applause] take your stand with god come out on god's side say god i'm your child i'm your servant i want to serve you i want to live for you i hate anything that comes between you and me i don't want

it i'm for you and number nine you haven't followed the numbers but number one expel now that's very very important that's why i titled my book they shall expel demons because expel is not a religious word i was looking for some word that wasn't religious it's in a certain translation of the new testament so what is expel you've got something inside you that you don't want what do you do you expend it you breathe it out you blow it out you sub it out you cut it out you scream it out but you get it

out you don't keep it inside you now i saw this in a marvelous illustration somewhere near washington dc but many years ago a mother brought to me a four-year-old son she said will you pray for him i said what's his allen what is i said what's his problem she said allergies i said what kind of allergies she said food allergies i said what's he allergic to she said tell me what he isn't allergic to well i said i'm going to deal with this as an evil spirit are you prepared she said yes so then i

sat the little boy down and i talked to him very simple i said there's a bad spirit a breath inside you that keeps you from eating the things you really like i'm going to command that spirit to come out in the name of jesus i want you to blow it out when he was like a little soldier i mean everything was just military i went through it all i said now come out to spirit and i said blow it out and he blew out four times no emotion nothing well i didn't know what had happened

so i said well that's the best i can do so off he went with his mother about three days later that mother was back she said pray for me i said what are your problems she said allergies said first of all tell me what happened to your son well she said he marched back home with me marched up to the refrigerator took out everything he enjoyed ate it all and nothing did him any harm [Applause] you see this is so simple that religious people can't always do it but expect it i had a letter once

from a woman years ago she said brother prince never hesitate to tell people to breathe it out she said my husband went to one of your meetings went up to the front prayed like you told blew out four times that's all that happened but she said he's been a different man ever since this is very real see it's not up there right down here on the surface of it so we've come to the point where you need to diagnose or you need to let god diagnose do you have any need to be delivered from something

demonic if so you'll never have a better opportunity than you have right now just take your take it easy we're not in a hurry we're relaxed god is on our side he's fighting for us i'm going to lead you if you want in a prayer by which you can claim deliverance i'm not going to pray it for you i'm going to tell you what to pray and it's up to you whether you pray we're not in a hurry if you went to the doctor of the dentist you might spend an hour in his waiting room

before you even got to see him so we are not going to rush this thing we're going to take it slowly we're going to take it very calmly calmly shariq that's her problem not yours and i'll tell you what usually happens in deliverance some women will start to scream and go on on on screaming and it disturbs other people my diagnosis is there's a demon coming out that's got struck stuck in the narrow passages of her throat so i go up to her or send somebody and say now just give a good hard cough and

it'll come out and it comes out and she stops screaming see we're dealing with realities we're not dealing with religious fancies we're dealing with something very real so on my pages 216 and 217 i have the prayer for deliverance and we're going to go through it if you want to if you don't want to we'll close the meeting so i want you to consider for a few moments what i've been saying open your heart and mind to the lord i need to get rid of because i want it out and then if you want to

pray i want you to do one thing could you give me a little water i'm getting a little dry thank you very much can you hold that for now thank you so much now if you let me blow my nose even preachers have to blow their nose you know now i'm going to offer to say for you or rather to put in your mouth a prayer that you can pray to the lord seeking deliverance it will cover every as i say in america i don't understand it i never played what do you play what's the

game baseball yes we call it rounders it's a game for girls in britain anyhow i do know some of the phrases i'm going to do my best to cover all the bases you understand that when you've done that you can be delivered so up to you entirely your decision no pressure but if you want to pray this prayer and receive deliverance i want you to stand up wherever you are and i'll lead you in prayer all right now i'm just reading out of my book you're going to affirm your faith in christ he's the high

priest of your confession so when you say these words after me lord jesus christ i believe you are the son of god and the only way to god that you died on the cross for my sins and rose again that i might be forgiven and receive eternal life now we're going to deal with humbling ourselves i renounce all pride and religious self-righteousness and any dignity that does not come from you i have no claim on your mercy except that you died in my place now we come to confessing sin i confess all my sins before

you and hold nothing back especially i confess and now quietly name any particular sins of which the holy spirit has convicted you now we're going to continue with repentance i repent of all my sins i turn away from them and i turn to you lord for mercy and forgiveness now we're going to deal with forgiving other people by a decision of my will i freely forgive all whoever ever harmed me or wronged me i lay down all bitterness all resentment and all hatred specifically i forgive and now you put in under your breath the name

of somebody you really need to forgive and don basham whom i ministered with often used to say the longer you make this list the better prospect you have is deliverance specifically i forgive and it's not difficult to forgive people far from you the man who delivers the mail no problem but the person who shares your bed that's not so easy or your parent or your child or your pastor all right we're going on dealing with the icon i sever all contact i've ever had with the occult or with all false religion particularly now you need

to name the things and if you have been in freemasonry or family specifically name freemasonry we're going on i commit myself to get rid of all objects associated with the occult or false religion now we're going to deal with any curses that may be over your life lord jesus i thank you that on the cross you may made a curse that i might be redeemed from every curse and inherit god's blessing on that basis i ask you to release me and set me free to receive the deliverance i need now sorry that i shouldn't you

don't have to follow that anyhow we're coming now to the vital point i take my stand with you lord against all satan's demons i submit to you lord and i resist the devil now we come to the point where you expel now i speak to any demons that have control over me now you speak to them directly i command you to go from me now in the name of jesus i expel you come out in the name of jesus let them go every evil spirit that's in these people i command you to go from them

now
