Derek Prince Sermons: How To Expel The Enemy – This is an original Bible Study, teaching by Derek Prince. Controversial, yet scriptural. Deliverance from demonic influence is a relevant and needed ministry in today’s church. Drawing on decades of personal experience, Derek Prince imparts the foundational keys to spiritual freedom.
in this session we’re going to begin by
answering one of the most important
practical questions in this whole theme
one that many people are concerned about
that is how do demons come in how do
they gain entry to human personalities
and lives my answers that I’m going to
offer to you are based on experience and
I’m not by any means suggesting that
they are totally complete but I will I
will list seven different ways in which
they may be able to come in the first
one is what I call occult background in
other words somewhere in your family
history there has been involvement with
the account and when you talk about the
occult you realize that you’re dealing
with false gods that’s really what it is
in other words there has been a breaking
of the first two commandments which are
the basic Commandments thou shalt have
no other God beside me and thou shalt
not make any graven image to worship all
forms of idolatry automatically expose
people to demons and in connection with
those two Commandments the Lord said
that he would visit the sins of the
fathers to the third and fourth
generation I don’t believe it applies so
much to the other Commandments but it’s
given in the context of the first two
Commandments and so if your father your
grandfather or your great-grandfather or
some other corresponding relative was
involved in the occult or a false
religion or idolatry then there is an
opening into your life for evil spirits
now you might say that’s not fair well
the truth of the matter is the devil
isn’t fair but what I want you to
understand is no one is condemning you
for having the problem condemnation will
only
come to you if you reject the solution
that’s where condemnation comes all
right
the second way is through personal
account involvement and I think probably
we better read a scripture at this point
there is a saying in English I don’t
know whether you’ve ever heard it he who
sucks with the devil must use a spoon
with a long handle I just want to tell
you there is no spoon made with a handle
long enough to make it safe to sup with
the devil you give him your little
finger and before you can turn round
he’s grabbed above your elbow there is
just no way that is safe to be involved
in the occult I’m going to read
Deuteronomy 18 verses 10 11 and 12 there
shall not be found among you anyone who
makes his son or his daughter passed
through the fire that is offering your
children in a living sacrifice to a
pagan God by putting them in an oven now
I want you to see that the other things
that follow by God are classified in the
same list as having your children
offered as living sacrifices by fire to
a pagan god thou shalt not be there
shall not be found among you anyone who
makes his son or his daughter pass
through the fire or one who practices
witchcraft or a soothsayer
that’s a fortune-teller or one who
interprets omens or a sorcerer or one
Jew who conjures spells or a medium or a
Spiritist or one who goes up the Dane
that’s a pretty comprehensive list I
think every kind of account practice is
included for all who do these things are
an abomination to the law so many
Christians just play with horoscopes and
then think there’s no harmony let me
just point out to you that if you played
with horoscopes under the law of Moses
you would have been put to death
that’s God’s estimate of that kind of
involvement all right the third is what
I call prenatal influences things that
happen while you are still in your
mother’s womb and many people have an
evil spirit enter them in that phase of
their life the communist single reason
is rejection a mother resents the baby
she’s carrying in her womb
maybe she wasn’t married and it’s going
to be an embarrassment or maybe she’s
getting not getting on well with her
husband and she just wasn’t doesn’t want
another burden in the family or maybe
the financial situation makes it
difficult for them to care for the
children but whatever she just resents
that little life that starting in her
womb and that little person in the womb
is very sensitive to attitudes it’s not
just a fetus it’s a person and it comes
out with the spirit of rejection already
in it or a woman who’s pregnant may
experience some kind of a shock a moment
of fear she yields to the fear the
spirit of fear enters her has two
options can stay in the woman or stay in
the infant in her womb may find it more
convenient to stay in the infant you
understand so when the infant is born it
comes out with the spirit of fear let me
show you a scripture which most people
don’t notice in first Peter chapter 3
which is advice to wives I just want to
bring out this one aspect of it telling
wives that the pattern for them in the
Bible is the attitude of Sarah to
Abraham and I’m not laboring this point
don’t get nervous
first Peter 3:6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham
calling him Lord whose daughters you are
if you do good and it doesn’t end there
and are not afraid with any terror to be
a daughter of Abraham you have to be
able to resist the sudden shock of fear
it’s very obvious I think that women are
more liable to sudden fright or panic
than men and again I’ve dealt with many
cases of people who needed deliverance
because of some shock that came to the
mother while they were still in the
mother’s womb another interesting thing
is I noticed when I was full-time in
this ministry or let me say much more
engaged in it than I am regularly now
that there were people in a certain age
group in the United States many of whom
seemed to need deliverance from
rejection and I began to think maybe
they were all born in the same period
and then I began to say what period were
they born in and I discovered they were
born during the Great Depression and I
reasoned out the mother already has six
mouths to feed and not enough money and
here comes the seventh child and these
she may be a good woman but she inwardly
resents the responsibility of that next
child and it is born with a spirit of
rejection all right we don’t have time
to dwell on any of these number four but
you let me say if you go to a
fortune-teller or some such person to
find out what will happen to your baby
when it’s born you have started that
baby off with two strikes against it
before it even comes out of the womb
number four soulish domination see
there’s a difference between the spirit
and the soul I don’t can’t go into them
but there are many people who control
and manipulate other people by what I
call soul force soulish domination the
most common example in contemporary
American culture is a mud
dominating her children especially her
son there used to be a best-selling book
in the Jewish community entitled how to
be a good Jewish mother one of the
lessons wants how to get your son to
play his violin in public using no other
motivation but guilt well when you know
the Yiddish yo mama they call them in in
Hebrew Yiddish your mama’s I mean they
are the perfect example of what I’m
talking about you know about the lady in
the big theatre who shouted out is there
a doctor in the house and a man stood up
and said yes she said boy do I have a
daughter for you all right
but it goes a lot beyond them I have met
successful businessmen bank presidents
and people like them who never developed
in motional maturity because they still
were time to their mothers I’m amber
like us the the spiritual umbilical cord
had never been cut the methods of
manipulation are endless I think of a
mother who dominated her family because
every time things went wrong she got my
green and all the family had to tiptoe
around don’t talk don’t make a noise
mothers got another ever headache she
didn’t realize it but she kept them from
doing anything she didn’t want them to
do by having migraines there are too
dirty words in this context dominate and
manipulate and wherever you meet them
you’ve met the devil alright number five
I’ve had to say to some people listen if
you want me to help you I’ve got to be
honest the fact is your mother is a
witch you still got to honor her but
she’s a witch I’ve had to tell people
who got delivered you just not free to
go back to your parents home you’ll have
to stay away because you don’t have the
spiritual strength to stay free from
that dominating manipulating entrance
number five pressures in early child
I have discovered that a child’s
spiritual and emotional defenses are not
strong enough to keep out persistent
demon pressure now it says in James 3:16
something that’s worth bearing in mind
James chapter 3 verse 16 for we’re envy
and self seeking exists confusion and
every evil thing will be there so where
there is an advocate atmosphere of
strife and disharmony between the
parents it generates a condition in
which the children will be automatically
exposed to demon influences and I would
say more than 90% of children are
incapable of keeping them out my
observation is that 80% of demon it
problems have started in a person’s life
before the age of five and the parents
are responsible for that situation you
understand number six moment or place of
weakness
there can be emotional weakness can be
physical weakness a woman is standing on
a street corner and a horrible
automobile accident takes place in front
of Rana she’s exposed to the spirit of
fear or a woman has only one child this
is as case I actually dealt with a boy
the age of five he dies she goes into
depression and stays in it for years she
has opened up to the spirit of grief
which is a very powerful spirit order
woman is expecting to get married and at
the last moment the engagement is cancer
and she yields to the spirit of
disappointment and goes through life and
in complete persons I remember I was
teaching once years ago in a certain
place and there was a lady who was
Pentecostal and very spiritual sitting
on the front row and I happened to name
the spirit of disappointment and I
watched her face it convulsed she
changed totally her whole personality
change until she was delivered from that
spirit of disappointment see if you
build your hopes on something and it
doesn’t work out you’re probably exposed
to an evil force now another kind of
weakness is physical weakness let me
give you this example I’ve talked about
epilepsy as being produced at times by
an evil spirit some years ago my first
wife and I had a girl of about eighteen
who came to us she’d heard my tapes she
was confirmed diagnosed epileptic on
medication but she believed that it was
an evil spirit she came to us for
deliverance so Lydia and I prayed for
her and we felt that the spirit had left
but then the Lord seemed to say to me
your job isn’t finished so I said to the
girl now tell me how did this start did
it start with a physical injury and she
said yes I was struck on the head by a
baseball and after that the seizures
started when I
said the physical injury was purely
physical but it opened the door to a
spirit of epilepsy and then the the
place of weakness was the injury to her
brain now I said to her I believe the
spirit has gone out we need to close the
door
so Lydia and I put hands on her and
prayed for the healing of our brain I
was in contact with her for about three
years after that she took no more
medication never had another seizure but
I gave that simply as an example of a
moment or a place of weakness and the
last one is sinful acts or habits if you
persist in a certain sinful heavy you
can be sure that sooner or later it will
become demonic to give an example of a
sinful act I had to pray for a young
woman once who had gone to see the film
The Exorcist she knew she shouldn’t go
she went and something entered her she
had to come confess as a sin that she’d
gone on territory that was forbidden and
then she was delivered or a person may
go to a pornographic movie and as some
kind of sex demon will enter demon of
lust but you won’t get delivered until
you’ve confessed the sin that opened the
way for the demon you understand all
right now we come if somebody would
clean off then we come to what is the
center of the whole thing how to be
delivered mm-hmm this is what all of us
need to know and I’m going to give you a
list of simple basic steps I don’t say
you have to follow all these steps but
I’ve observed that these are the things
that are relevant number one be humble
okay now you’ll see why I say that when
I write up number to be honest
understand it takes humility to be
honest
I tell people don’t call your problem by
some fancy psychiatric name call it what
it really is call a spade a spade and
not an agricultural implement all right
if it’s lust call it lust if it’s hatred
call it hatred say the women call it by
the same name you’d call it in your
husband and you got the right name but
that takes humility all right you won’t
face the truth unless you first humble
yourself and remember the Bible always
puts on us the responsibility for
humility it always says humble yourself
don’t pray to God to make you humble
because he’ll humiliate then you’ll have
to be humble but it’s your decision like
this you see if you are seeking
deliverance they may come a moment when
you have to choose between two things
your dignity and your deliverance
now if dignity is more important to you
than deliverance you know what your
problem is pride that’s right I always
think of this doctor in the doctor’s
wife in the state of Alabama she was a
kind of southern style lady she’d heard
me teaching and she came up and said mr.
Prince if I understand what you’re
saying if I’m to be delivered I may
scream I said it could happen because
she said I was brought up the lady that
a lady doesn’t scream in public well I
said suppose you were in a river
drowning and you were going down for the
third time and you thought there might
be someone on the bank who could rescue
would you be too ladylike to scream we
see that’s an option you can choose to
down drown or you can be little less
ladylike for five minutes
I my advice to people is let your
dignity go because it’ll come back and
when you’ve been delivered
when you’ve been delivered you’ll be
much more dignified you won’t have this
thing inside you struggling all the time
okay but I really say humility is the
key all right the next is confess your
faith in Christ I won’t put your but you
understand them because he is the high
priest of our confession when we confess
right he comes to our help but if we
don’t make the right confession we don’t
get him on the scene number four confess
any known sin all right all right bit
over there any known sin and I want to
put but I don’t have room on the line by
yourself or your ancestors in some cases
you have to identify yourself with the
family problem and say it’s my problem
I confess it I ask for forgiveness even
though it was your grandmother or your
aunt or whoever it wants number five
repent of all sin without repentance you
remember what we’ve been saying all
along without repentance there is no
deliverance and I’ll put your proverbs
28:13 which says he that covereth his
sin shall not prosper but whoso
confesseth and forsaketh them shall have
mercy do you want mercy you’ve got to do
two things
confess and forsake that’s old-fashioned
but then God hasn’t changed you
understand a lot of people have the
attitude if I don’t confess my sin God
will never know about it really I’ve met
many people that’s a mistake
God knows already he’s not asking you to
confess in order that he can find out
he’s asking you to confess in order that
he can have mercy on you instead
and let me tell you some other good news
God is unshockable you can tell him the
worst about yourself
he already knows it and he still loves
it but if you hold it in you’ve held
your problem in alright number six
break with our count air curses which
we’re going to deal with tonight I can’t
go into that in detail now and secret
societies okay especially Freemasonry
that is a source of the most tremendous
demonic problems and it goes from
generation to generation including
retardation crippling all sorts of
problems all right really that’s part of
repentance you understand but I’ve put
it up separately number seven forgive
others all others everybody gon bash em
and I had a friend
yes Bank who was a veterinarian he
needed deliverance but he didn’t get
delivered to lead forgiving the whole
IRS that was his problem none of you
have that problem of sure Jesus said in
Matthew 11:25 when you stand praying
forgive if you have anything against
anybody that leaves out nothing and
nobody it’s your responsibility to
forgive you don’t wait till they humble
themselves and say I really am sorry for
what I did to you forgive them not for
their sake primarily but for your sake I
tell people forgiving others is not
being super spiritual or sentimental it
is really simply enlightened
self-interest that’s all it is and
number eight
one beautiful brief word expel we’ll
come to that a little later but
passivity doesn’t get you anywhere
you’ve got to take action
the simplest action to
is to begin to breathe out in both
Hebrew and Greek the word for spirit is
the same word for brain I remember a
little boy or rather a mother who came
to me asked me to pray for a little boy
of about four fine
I said what’s his problem she said
allergies what kind of allergies food
allergies what’s he allergic to tell me
what he isn’t allergic to well I said
I’m going to deal with it as an evil
spirit is that okay she said fine
said I need to talk to your son I talked
to him in very simple child language
said there’s a bad spirit like a breath
inside you I’m going to command it to
come out in the name of Jesus I want you
to let it go so when I say in the name
of Jesus you blow it out so he was like
a little soldier prayed for him said in
the name of Jesus and he went that was
all so I thought did it work or didn’t
it so I just had to leave it with the
Lord but three days later the lady came
back and said pray for me I said what is
your problem she said allergies I said
tell me first what happened to your son
once she say the March straight home
went to the refrigerator opened it and
sampled everything in it and nothing did
him any harm see how simple except you
become like a little child you don’t get
these benefits all right now that’s how
to get get them out that’s the most
important piece of information even if
you don’t understand how they came in
what matters is to know how to get them
out thank you now we’re going on to the
problem area why some people are not
delivered okay this is mainly for those
who are going to be in this ministry why
some are not delivered basically it’s
for not meeting the conditions
listen deliverance is not so much a test
of your spiritual power it’s a test of
whether the people have met the
condition don’t focus on yourself focus
on getting the people to meet the
conditions because once they’ve met the
conditions they will be delivered you
may feel yourself a little [ __ ]
but you’re representing a victorious
Christ all right number one lack of
repentance okay there’s no guarantee to
anybody who is not willing to repent
number two lack of desperation I say
deliverance is for the desperate I often
say to people when you come back and are
desperate desperation thank you lack of
desperation summed up in one word
passivity you found that particularly in
people who’ve been in Oriental cults
because they’ve encouraged a kind of
putting your mind in neutral you
understand and many times you’ve got to
do something to prod them see I want to
say again Christ has given us authority
over evil spirits but not over the human
will you cannot will for the other
person the person has the will for
himself
number three wrong motives all right
scripture I’ll give you there is James 4
and verse 3 which says you ask and you
receive not because you ask amiss that
you may spend it on your lusts we are
not delivered just to get off the hook
you understand a lot of people would
like to get off the hook we’re delivered
in order to serve the Lord people who
come merely to get off the hook do not
qualify for deliverance
number four you better get on this list
and check yourself while we’re going
through it self-centeredness all right
desire for attention some people don’t
get delivered because they wouldn’t be
they wouldn’t be the center of attention
any longer you understand you find some
of the chronic cases of deliverance
never want to get delivered because
they’re poor neglected rejected people
this is the only time they get the
center of the stage one thing you’ll
notice about all people affected by
demons is in some way or other they are
self-centered
in fact self-centeredness is an
invitation to demon attention sometimes
you just have to let the person go and
say listen you’ve heard enough you can
do it for yourself and if you don’t do
it for yourself nobody else is going to
do it for you number five failure to
break with the Arco etc and that
includes getting rid of account objects
okay
such as little Buddhas or charms or
horseshoes anything that savers of
superstition is demonic Moses told
Israel if you bring an accursed thing
into your house you become a curse it
like the thing most Christians need to
go through their homes and clean out a
lot of rubbish I make it a principle I
don’t want to keep in my house anything
that dishonours Jesus Christ or honor
Satan one of the big steps in my life
was I had inherited from my grandfather
for beautiful tapestry Chinese dragons
Imperial dragons with five claws not
four and they were beautiful and they
were not actually objects of worship but
the more I thought about it the more I
thought the devil really is a picture of
say the dragon really is a picture of
Satan I cannot afford to advertise him
on the walls of my home so I took them
down
got rid of them and I would have to say
without any conscious effort in my part
my income doubled from the day I did
that’s a little extra motivation okay I
was not planning it I wasn’t I wasn’t in
need I didn’t have any such motivation
in mind but I just observed I prospered
in a totally new measure once I got the
Dragons out of my house all right number
six failure to sever evil soulish
relationships sometimes you have to
break some relationships if they’re evil
if they’re binding if they’re I don’t
know what word I want to say the word
gooey a kind of sloppy sentimentality
that isn’t honest alright number seven
under a curse now we’re going to deal
with that tonight so I’m not going to
get involved in it now but some people
are under a curse and will not be
delivered or heal till the curse is
broken
number eight I’m running out of space
failure to confess a specific sin such
an the one obvious example is abortion
anyone who has procured an abortion
deliberately in God’s sight is guilty of
murder and that has to be confessed
specifically as murdered
now this isn’t my decision I’m not
making the rules since then I’m just
interpreting I’ve tried to get people
delivered you could get the demon up too
far as the throat and it would not come
out stop and check I remember a girl of
about sixty my mother brought her I
actually I said listen there’s something
you’re gonna have to confess before this
will come out and she eventually
confessed she’d had an abortion her
mother didn’t know about it
the moment she confessed it came out I
was so sweet to see the mother and
daughter fall in one another’s arms and
receive one another but that in my
opinion is an unvarying principle number
nine I think I’m going to have to go
back to the top of the list if that’s
all right by all of you I can’t do
anything else
so on top wipe out the first three and
we’ll go on with nine which is high this
is a controversial one not separated by
guess one what’s the separating
ordinance in the New Testament Baptists
offense right water baptism all right
remember Israel were delivered in Egypt
by the blood of the Lamb but they were
separated from Egypt by the water of the
Red Sea and it was the water that
prevented the Egyptians following them
they could follow as far as the water
people that are not willing to be water
baptized in my opinion do not qualify to
stay free this is not an option I’m not
dealing with this as a denominational
issue I’m simply stating that’s the way
it is you can get God to agree fine but
I’m not going to be a party to that
agreement all right ten now this is a
very complicated one part
are they larger battle I think I would
have put all of this
requiring a corporate action okay some
people are what I call Satan’s
battlefields and he will not let them go
not because of what they are themselves
but because of thank you because of what
they stand for I don’t have time to go
into this but there are people for whom
the whole body has to take
responsibility give you an example there
was a young man I knew who had Hodgkin’s
disease
you know it’s incurable it’s just a
question of time well he was part of a
fellowship which when the fellowship
flourished he did fine he wasn’t sick if
anything went wrong with the fellowship
spiritually he began to get sick and
ultimately Satan got right into the
fellowship split it open and destroyed
it and he died understand his physical
condition was an accurate barometer of
the spiritual condition of the
fellowship he was in there are people
like that you don’t have the choice all
right one last topic if I could get the
top part wiped off thank you how to keep
your deliverance okay this I usually
don’t have time to teach on this let me
say that I have a series of six
cassettes full deliverance and
demonology are available to all of you
this final cassette is seven ways to
keep your deliverance so if you don’t if
I don’t cover it in detail anyhow number
one make Jesus Lord okay normally at the
end of a deliverance service I’ll tell
the people have been delivered don’t you
go out of this auditorium until you’ve
made Jesus Lord of every area of your
life you remember what Jesus said in
Matthew chapter 12 when the unclean
spirit has gone out of a man
he walks through Dry places seeking rest
then he says I will return to my house
what does he mean by my house the person
the occupant and when he comes he finds
it three things empty swept and said in
order what’s the problem no problem with
having the house swept no problem with
having the house said in order what’s
the problem
empty unoccupied no one else has been
allowed to move in there’s only one
person strong enough to keep the devil
out of your life you know who that is
Jesus every area Jesus occupies is safe
but any area where he is not Lord is
unsafe have you ever driven through the
United States about 6 or 7 o’clock in
the evening looking for a motel to spend
the night you’re looking for one word in
red neon letters what is it vacancy
that’s right and when you see that you
know you can get in well in the
spiritual world any area of your
personality which is not totally given
to the lordship of Jesus has got that
red near neon letter sign vacancy and
the enemy knows he’s welcome and when he
comes in he’s liable to bring with him
seven others worse than himself
all right number two I’m gonna just put
briefly garment of praise the scripture
says God has given us a garment of
praise in place of the spirit of
heaviness is that right you see when you
are praising the Lord you bother the
devil more than he can bother you
let me relate this briefly yes back
before I’ve gotten to this minister
delivery so I was just pastoring an
ordinary sort of Pentecostal Church in
London we had two Russian Jew asses who
did marvelously escape from Russia being
saved and baptized in the Holy Spirit
and my first wife and I were praying
with them and they really believed in
praising the Lord I mean they were not
reticent they said in Russia the Baptist
praise the Lord much loves of louder
than the pen
cause outside Russia and so there we
were having a good time with the Lord
and there was a ring at the Bell and
when I went to answer it
there was one of my lady church members
there leading her husband by the hand
and she said this is my husband he’s
just come out of prison he has a demon
well that was unwelcome news to me
because I didn’t know what to do about
demons but I couldn’t refuse the man so
I took the couple up where we were all
praying and I said we’ll pray you know
that’s a safe cover all it’s always
spiritual to pray sometimes it doesn’t
produce any results but at least you
sound good so we went on praying and
these Russian sisters they didn’t care
about anybody they were praising Allah
so this man sidled up to me and he said
there’s too much noise I’m going I
didn’t premeditate my answer but I gave
him the right answer I said listen the
one who doesn’t like the noise is the
devil because we’re praising Jesus
you’ve got two options if you go now the
devil will go with you if you stay the
devil will go without you he said I’ll
stay and about 10 minutes later without
anything further happening that I was
aware of he came up to me said it’s just
left I felt it leave my throat well I
that was such a demonstration to me how
much the devil dislikes the praises of
Jesus if you put on the garment of
praise he’ll stay away from you because
you embarrass him more than he can
embarrass you
number three put on the full armor of
God that’s not an option
Ephesians 1 6 14 through 17 as it starts
with 12 that’s right okay now that’s all
listed for you I don’t have to tell you
all about it
number 4 lives by God’s Word all right
Matthew 4:4 says one man shall not live
by bread alone but by every word that –
see
the Lord you cannot live by your
feelings that’s the most dangerous thing
you can do you’ll be up and down and
every time you get a bad mood you’ve
opened the door there’s a little list of
three apps fact faith feelings okay now
you have to keep them in that order the
facts are in the Word of God faith
believes the facts and feelings fall
into line but if you reverse the order
and start living by your feelings
you’ve lost your anchor you’re like a
ship adrift without an anchor number
five submit to God and what else resist
the devil and thrown
I’ll put Satan because it’s shorted
around which is James 4:7 notice which
comes first which do you have to do
first submit to God if you’ve submitted
to God and you then resist the devil
what is it that bundle say will happen
he will want flee from you do you
believe that but a lot of Christians are
actually doing the opposite they’re
submitting to the devil and resisting
God really many all right number six
number six
I’ll put right fellowship I don’t put in
more it matters what kind of fellowship
you have 1 John 1:7 if we walk in the
light as he is in the light what happens
we have fellowship if you’re out of
fellowship you’re out of the light
instead you’re not protected by the
blood the blood only cleanses in the
line and you’re going to have some kind
of fellowship which is it going to be
with the godly or the ungodly
Paul says have no fellowship with the
unfruitful works of darkness
so the fellowship is an acid test of
where you’re at in your spiritual life
number seven I don’t know how many I’ve
got can I get them all in I can come
under discipline all right you cannot be
a real Christian without being under
discipline self-discipline family
discipline governmental discipline
school discipline church discipline
there are many areas of discipline but
the one who refuses is a rebel and you
know what the Bible says about rebel on
Samuel 15:23 rebellion is as witchcraft
the moment you become rebellious you are
exposed to the spirit of witchcraft okay
discipline did you get that for many
people today it’s a dirty word this
starts with self discipline you
understand most Christians indulge their
moods and their whims and their fences
you are not free to do that it’s just as
dangerous to do that as it is in to
endanger in to indulge your sexual
impulses you are not free to do it
number eight this is the last one
make Jesus central all right you notice
it begins and ends with Jesus and I’m
going to put a scripture there John 12
what 31 and 32 which says Jesus saying
now is the judgment of this world and
now is the Prince of this world constant
and I if I be lifted up from the earth
will draw all men unto me notice the
odor when Satan is cast out what’s the
next thing to do lift up Jesus that’s
right fill the vacuum with Jesus the
driving out of Satan
creates a vacuum it’s very important you
fill it with the right thing focus on
Jesus do not focus on demons don’t give
the devil too much publicity he loves it
demons are real like germs and viruses
and other things we have to acknowledge
them we have to deal with them but a
healthy person doesn’t go around
thinking all the time about germs and
viruses understand health in a certain
sense excludes them don’t see a demon
under every Cotton saucer and if you’re
from some old line Church or even a less
old lunch it don’t go back go up to your
pastor or rector stick your finger
between his eyes and say you have a
demon understand it may be true but it’s
not the right way to handle the
situation all right now we have done
marvelously well with regard to time and
I want to end on a very practical note
thank you so much this is optional I
want you to understand nobody is
compelled but if there are those of you
here this morning or this afternoon now
who feel that somehow on the basis of
what you’ve heard or maybe previous
experience you have a problem a demonic
problem there’s an area in your life in
which Jesus is not in control and you’re
not in control you may be in control of
90% but this is 10% it may be your
temper it may be your mind it may be
your sex life it may be your
relationships with other people there is
an area where you need deliverance I
want to help you I’ve helped I can say I
think with honesty hundreds of thousands
of people it works what I’m going to
offer to do for you those of you who
feel that you want help here I’m going
to invite you
in a few moments to stand and say a
prayer you’ll not be praying to me
you’ll be praying to Jesus remember
there’s only one deliverer what’s his
name Jesus if you want deliverance you
have to come to the deliberate there’s
no alternative Jesus said him that
cometh unto me I will in no wise cast
out if you come he’ll receive you now
this is a method that I have employed
with large crowns in Wellington Old Town
Hall just two weeks ago in New Zealand
we had at least 2,000 people and it
worked for 2,000 it worked dramatically
well I have never seen so many people
liberated in such a short space of time
so what I’m going to offer to do now
this is an offer I’m going to lead you
in a prayer in which you will have the
opportunity to humble yourself to come
to Jesus and to affirm that you’ve met
the conditions you understand I’ll put
in your work in your mouth the words you
renounce the account and every kind of
contact with satanic power you’ll
forgive every other person who ever
harmed you around you you’ll release
yourself from every curse over your life
and you’ll have to do that in faith
without the understanding and then you
present yourself to Jesus as a candidate
for deliverance and when you’ve said the
prayer and met all the conditions the
last thing you say is are men okay and
when you said are men don’t do any more
praying
it’s very religious to pray sounds good
but as long as you’re praying you’re
keeping the demons inside you understand
they can’t get out past your prayer
don’t speak in tongues speaking in
tongues is wonderful but it has the same
effect it keeps the demons inside it’s
like when the ambulance or the police
car goes down the road with its sirens
blaring and it’s lights flashing
everything else gets off to the side and
lets it go past that’s how demons get up
see make way full release them
let them go on now I say faith without
works is dead I didn’t but the bible
does okay so don’t stand there passive
when you’ve said the prayer waiting for
something to happen do one very simple
thing begin to breathe out expel and you
find if you have a problem in a short
while it’ll be more than mere human
breath that’s coming up that’s your what
you’re after now when that happens you
might become undignified you might not
act in a very religious way if you
decide to be dignified and religious you
lose what you prayed for so your option
I suggest you turn loose and get it out
I’ve told the people that devil is no
gentleman he comes in uninvited and he
usually has to be picked up kick him out
with everything you’ve got
don’t spare him hate him listen it’s no
sin to hate the devil it’s a sin not to
hate the devil to be passive and
indifferent is sinful okay those of you
that want to say this prayer would you
stand to your feet right now we don’t
have more than about three minutes all
right now we are praying to Jesus the
deliverer not to brother Prince and I
would like you to say these words
they’re all taken out of the Bible and
what I have taught okay Lord Jesus
Christ I believe that you are the son of
God and the only way to God
that you died on the cross for my sins
and rose again from the day I come to
you now for mercy and for forgiveness I
believe you do forgive me and receive me
as your child and because you receive me
I receive myself as a child of God and
now Lord you know the special problem
that I have the demonic influences that
torment me lord I want to meet your
conditions and receive your deliverance
first of all I forgive every other
person who ever harmed me or wronged me
I forgive them all now I’ll pause for a
moment and quietly name the persons you
need to forget to yourself
we’re going on Lord I have forgiven all
these persons I have laid down all
bitterness or resentment all hatred and
all rebellion and I believe you’ve
forgiven me I thank you for it
I also renounce every contact with Satan
with occult power with secret societies
with anything in Satan’s territory
I repent to being on that territory and
I turn my back on it now also Lord if
there’s a curse over my life I thank you
that on the cross you were made a curse
that I might be redeemed from the curse
and receive the blessing and I claim
that no release from the curse and
entering into the blessing and now lord
I want to come against any evil spirit
in me that occupies any area of my
personality
I want to tell you I hate them they are
my enemies I will not make peace with
them I will not compromise with them
they will have no more place in me I
turn against them now and in the
authority of your name Jesus I command
them to leave me I expel them right now
in the name of Jesus I’m in all right no
more praying I’ll do the final prayer
you do the letting go begin to expel
right now in faith now Lord is your
servant and representative here this
morning under the authority the local
leadership I take Dominion in Jesus name
over every evil spirit that has been
renounced and I command them to go now
in Jesus name
release these people and go from them
now in the mighty Oh prevailing name of
Jesus Christ I affirm that Jesus Christ
is Lord over this gathering that he has
defeated Satan that he holds the keys of
death and of Hades that all authority
has been given unto him in heaven and in
earth Satan you are subject to us
through the name of Jesus you have to
obey us you have to go from these people
you have no options the Bible says you
must leave and leave you must Satan in
the name of Jesus I’m in now just get a
full deliverance release yourself from
everything once the anointing is here
you can get rid of everything and it’s
much more difficult to do it when the
anointing lifts try don’t bother about
other people don’t hold on to your
dignity it’ll come back in a few moments
that’s right thank you lord thank you
for thank you Lord Jesus
raise your holy name raise your name
raise your name
