Complete Deliverance Part Two Koinonia Abuja with Apostle Joshua (1)

Pointia. The place and changes is the foolish spirit. And transformations by the principles of God's scandal. And we pray tonight as always that Jesus remains glorified in our lives. Jesus remains glorified in this place point Jesus' mighty name. We pray God bless you good. Evening, please be seated, Allelujah, Complete deliverance. Part two. We have a lot to do, and so we have to get to the businessness of the night immediately. For those of you who are just joining us, where on a series. Attempting to study satan demons and the activity of unclean spirits to the end that we understand how to work experientially in victory. It takes light and it takes knowledge. This is a kingdom that functions by light, and it is important that believers be equipped. Now did you know that in the course of my studying. This series, afresh I discovered that Jesus never sent any disciples, He never sent the apostles to do anything missions. Without a thorough understanding of the structure and the system of darkness, it is a risk to ever explore anything that makes for kingdom com in ignorance, especially ignorance. Of the devices of the devil. Please, you must open up your eyes and your spirit to this teaching. Don't be distracted tonight. Let me do a quick recaver Part one. Last week we started by examining the biblical basis for the study of Satan, demons, and. What we call demonology. Is there a biblical basis to study demons, to study Satan and the operations of darkness? I did teach us that theologically speaking, for anything to be established as doctrine, there are three requirements. Number one, it must be captured in the Old Testament. Number two, it must be captured in the earthwork of Jesus Christ. And number three, it must be captured in the life of the Apostles and the early Church. And we took our time to examine the concept of Satan evil and the reality of the operation of darkness in the Old Testament, using the fall of Man, the story of Job and Israel and their captivity in Egypt. We also looked at the ministry of Jesus, his temptation. Jesus himself taught on deliverance. Jesus administered deliverance. Then we looked at the light of the apostles Philip in Samaria, Paul mentoring the church in Ephesus and encouraging them, teaching them on the structure of darkness. Apostle Peter encouraged us to be sober and to be vigilant because there was an adversary, the devil, who is seeking whom he would devolve. And then John giving us an explanation from his vision in Revelation that Satan was that adversary, Satan the Olden. So we established the fact that. From the Old Testament, the ministry of Jesus and the early Church, the Bible gives us legitimate grounds to study on Satan and his structure. Then we went further to deal with the origin of Satan. You can get the teaching the origin of Satan. I was not able to touch on demons, but we did look at the origin of Satan. We established a few things, Where did he come from? And I explained to us two schools of thought based on scholars and their understandings. We look at Ezekiel twenty eight, Isaiah fourteen, Revelations twelve. These are the fundamental scriptures that talk about Satan. I taught you the principle of prophetic paradlels. Remember, and then we explained the name Lucifer from the Hebrew tongue meaning the shining one, the light bearer, and that the word devil comes from the Greek word diabolos, which means the accuser or the slanderer. And we're examined a few names that Satan is called in Scripture, is called Lucifer, the devil, Saturn, the thief, the enemy, the evil one, and so on and so forth. But the most important part of the teaching last week, and I'm doing a quick recap on that, is what does Satan want? Why all of these attack? What exactly is Satan's objective? And we're examined from scripture that there are two things based on the revelation of Scripture, that Satan is out looking for. Number one is dominion and number two transgenerational allegiance. Please write that down and never forget it that. Behind the ministry of stealing, killing, destruction, behind everything that is Antichrist and anti God and anti kingdom, there is one singular drive that Satan, alongside his demon spirits, seek to achieve dominion, that dominion that was given to man. And then transgenerational allegiance. The reality of transgenerational allegiance is what brought the structure for things like altars, causes patterns, because the assignment of altars, the assignment of causes, the assignment of patterns, is to make for continuity from individual to individual. These are the legitimate systems in the realm of the spirit that can perpetuate evil even when the initiator has left. Are we together? Are you getting my teaching? Now? We do more of that today, so that Satan's passion for transgenerational allegiance sponsored. He is inventing this system that we all causes, this system that we call authors and patterns. Patterns are repetitive occurrences that happen to people within a pretty defined bloodline. Patterns. You find patterns among family members, usually negative. You find patterns among people within certain regions, patterns of irresponsibility, patterns of anger, patterns of kept, patterns of untimely death. All of these things are Satan's invention towards one. Goal and demystifying Satan. For us so that some of these superstitious ideas we've heard about him. As complicated as Satan and the dark world looks, there has always been a principal motivation or two dominion a quest, a first and imbending passion for dominion, and trans generational allegiance. He told Jesus, all these have been given to me, but I don't need them. All I need from you is, since you are a representation of the image of the Father, bow down to me. Bowing down is a prophetic language. It means acknowledge my lodging over you are we together were wrapped up last week by looking at the fact that everything negative that has happened in your life is happening in your life is not really what Satan is after. So if you see bardedness or poverty, or sickness, or violence, or irresponsibility or moral decadence, or anything at all that is anti God and Antichrist, let it be known to you there, believers, that Satan is not after those things. Those things are only a means to an end. What is the end that you will gain dominion and He will bring whole territories to submit to him perpetually. And I shared with us that this is the same principle that is used in terrorism, that every time a terrorism captures a family member or a loved one, it is not the person they capture that they're interested in, but they are capturing that person to get the attention of the person and the thing that they want. Is that true. So when they capture your child or your loved one, usually they subject them to some kind of torture, and they give you an opportunity to hear their cry, and in the presence of that lamentation, you will become emotionally connected to their pain and you will easily bend to whatever they want. So that's what Satan does. If you make sure that you don't have a child, or you don't move forward, or there is a death sentence on you in terms of a medical report, he knows that you will not suffer along with pain. You will usually go to look for alternatives. So he will cause the problem and be waiting at the other side of your pain to suggest an idea. Go to the village, go and sacrifice this, bow to this, bow to that. Unfortunately, because Christianity was not as strong as it is now in the days of our parents and grandparents and so on and so forth, most of these people, especially mixing Christianity, we tray the African religion. When Satan pressed on them. They went straight to these. Deities through mediums, and that was an opportunity for Satan. And most of these people listen carefully. They came into covenance on behalf of whole territories. Make sure that our farms produce food. Make sure that every time our enemies come and want to strike us, let it be raining perpetually so that they will run away. In response, we will worship you, and we will ensure that our children and our children's children worship you. And the devil said, that's a deal. That's all I want. And in all fairness to him in many regards, even though he's a deceiver, but in many regards they kept their own part. Then the missionaries came and we received Jesus Christ. And listen carefully. In receiving Jesus Christ. What happened was that when we receive Jesus Christ, Satan now came. Listen carefully because of ignorance in the complete Gospel, say complete Gospel. The missionaries were sincere, but. They brought the evangelical dimension of the gospel. Jesus saves eternal life, but the spiritual intelligence that will help us to maneuver this legal access. It was not brought. So both the missionaries and those who believed in them eventually started dying like chickens. And most people did not know what to do. But thank God for light in the name of Jesus. All Satan is looking for is this dominion, the dominion God gave man, and then transgenerational allegiance. So the challenge that you call a financial problem or a demonic problem, the spirits that molects you in dreams, all of those imageries that you see, all those are coordinated attempts to bring and force you to a point where you go back to the patterns that can now allow him to be lord over you. Someone shout no way. Part two. Let's begin our teaching now. It is line uponline Precept upon precept John chapter eight and verse thirty six, the amplified. Let's read it one more time before we begin. This is where we got our theme from, Complete deliverance. Can you give it to us? John eight thirty six. Let's read together, Ready one to read. So if the sun liberates you makes you free men, then you are really and unquestionably free. Allelujah. Obadiah one and verse seventeen. Obadiah Chapter one and verse seventeen. Let's we can go back to King James Obadiah one seventeen. But upon Mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and. Shall possess Amen. Now I'll be teaching you on the. Structure and the operation of Satan, the structure and the operation of Satan that also includes demons. We want to look at the structure. How does the demonic kingdom, how is it built? What is the structure like? And what is the modus operandi of Satan? How does he operate? Allelujah, praise the name of the Lord. A few scriptures now, because we're dealing with a very delicate subject, We're going to be doing a lot of scriptural readings, and I want you to write them and then read them follow very closely, because you will be learning that the greatest antidote to darkness and error is truth. Are we together now? Revelations Chapter twelve will start from verse seven to nine. Revelations twelve, seven to nine. Is it alright if we read this together? One to read? And the dragon fought and his angels hold on, hold on, hold on. You would notice there, please help me with my screen. You would notice there. The Bible says there was war in heaven. Then he says, Michael and his angels, Michael and his, Michael and his, and then they fought against who. And then the dragon also fought and his. So immediately we see that there is a structure even while. It was in heaven. Satan did not do it alone. The Bible acknowledges that there were certain angels that followed that rebellion. Satan and his angels allelujam. Satan and his angels Matthew twenty five and verse forty one were looking at a few scriptures that piece together the. Structure of the demonic kingdom. Ready, then shall he say onto them on the left hand, depart from me, ye cursed in to everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his So Satan has subjects. Satan has a system and organized demonic system. We know that Satan has angels. Second pit Tou, chapter two and verse four. Second pit Touch chapter two and verse four. Are you ready for if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness to be reserved to judgment. So it's not only Satan that sinned. He did not sing alone. The Bible tells us that there were angels that seinned. I don't want to complicate your understanding tonight with this story. Matthew twelve and verse twenty six. Matthew after twelve and verse twenty six. Remember this was when Jesus casted out a demon spirit and then they accused him. What was the accusation that he was using? Beelzebob, the prince of demons. So Jesus was giving them explanation. Now are we together? Listen? Let me tell you this. You are not as powerful as your knowledge of spiritual things. You are as powerful as your knowledge of scripture. Knowing spiritual things is not where strength comes from. Knowing the scripture. He say, ye, err, not knowing the scripture. You must be sound in scripture, not just in spiritual things. Just because a thing is spiritual does not mean it is consistent with the. Word of God. The simplicity of the knowledge of scripture is where the believers authority comes from. Are we learning now? Please give it back to us Matthew twelve twenty six. And if Satan cast out, say he is divided against himself? Who is speaking here? Jesus, how shall please, can you help me with my screen? He's coming on? And of gentlemen, let me just use this for time. If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself, how then shall his kingdom? Who tells us here that Satan has a kingdom? Jesus himself is acknowledging that Satan has a kingdom, and that he intends for his kingdom to stand, but that the only way his kingdom stands is when. He is united. If Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself, how then shall his kingdom stand? Now, let's go to the Pauline Epistles Efficians. Let's start from chapter. One, Deficients one and twenty one, Epicians one twenty one. Paul began to. Give us the theological basis for our authority in Christ. And the first basis he gave us is our oneness with Christ, and then second our positional advantage. And in explaining our positional advantage, he says here that we have been raised with Christ far above. Now he begins to give us an idea of his structure, far above principality were still together and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. That means there is a demonic structure. Are we together now, efficient Chapter six? Please from verse eleven and twelve, Efficient six, eleven and twelve, Efficient six, But put the whole armor of God, why that you may be able to stand a against the wilds of the devil. Hold on, you see what Paul is telling us here. Paul is speaking to people who are already saved, and it's saying, if the only thing you have is just the awareness of the new bad experience, you will still be victims. There is something called the whole armor of God. We deal with that in Fact three. But it says that it takes the whole armor of God for you to be able to stand against the wilds. The wilds there means the devices the strategies of the devil Verse twelve. Read with me if you can see it ready, want to read, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood. Hold on, now, be very careful as we read from there, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness. In high places. It was Paul that. Began to give us this revelation? How do we trust the revelation of Paul? Because Paul is not Jesus. And if we are to believe Paul, we must be able to vet where he got his revelation from, because Paul was not part of the disciples that was directly mentored by Jesus. So how then do we trust that what Paul is saying is accurate? Efficients Chapter three, beginning from verse three, before Paul began his discourse, he gave us the basis so that we would not doubt the depth of what he was communicating. Are you ready now how that by revelation he made known on to meet the mystery as I wrote a four in few words, Verse four he says, whereby when ye ready may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ verse five, which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed onto his holy apostles and prophets. By this is where I was going to So who revealed to Paul the spirit? So we can trust what Paul is saying because we have now examined the basis for his revelation. Are you seeing how doctrine is established. Now we can't take chances because there were things Paul said that he said, I speak as a man, in other words, this is my opinion. Do not make a doctrine out of it. But now he's speaking in his capacity as an apostle, and his saying, even though I was not with the disciples learning directly under Jesus, but the Spirit of God has come to grant me access to an explanation of something that was not yet known. That means given. When the prophets talked about these things, they were just prophet saying it was not out of knowledge, he was just manifesting the spirit. Are we learning? Write this down? Please, Satan alongside demons or what the Bible calls evil or on clean spirits, make up what we call the Satanic kingdom. Please write it down. Satan alongside demons the Bible calls them evil or on clean spirits make up the Satanic kingdom. So when we're talking about the Satanic Kingdom, essentially it involves Satan and demon spirits. May I remind you from last week's teaching that I taught you here that the ac enemy of Satan is not God. The ac enemy of Satan is man. There is no recording scripture. It's impossible and it does not make spiritual sense and scriptural sense for Satan or God to be the arc enemy of Satan. The ac enemy of Satan is man. He does not steal and kill and destroy from God. Are we together now? Yes, there is no mention in the world of Satan attacking the world. But when the world became flesh and he became a man, Satan now followed him and attacked him until the wisdom of God led Satan to look like he killed him, only for him to resurrect in victory. Are you seeing that now? So Satan, alongside demons and. On clean spirits, make up the Satanic kingdom. Please look up. Some of you may be asking, now where do men human vessels come in, because I'm sure that most of you are waiting anxiously for me to talk about this show, which is some wizards, and you are wondering why I didn't include them in that list. Now, let me tell you this. Every human vessel, every human vessel that Satan walks through to execute his purposes. Listen carefully, Every human vessel that Satan uses is the same vessel intended to bring. The glory, to reveal the glory of God. Are we together now? The very nature of operating on earth here is such that you cannot operate on earth legitimately without a human participation. So the idea of man in partnership with the Holy Spirit is not Satan's idea, It. Is God's idea. The heaven of heavens belong to the Lord, but the earth has she that Lord given to the sons of men? Are we together now? Very very important? So when you are defining the Satanic kingdom, you don't necessarily bring men. Men were not created by Satan. They are God's creation and for his glory. He only took advantage of them because of ignorance and in compliance with the law of territory. Is someone understanding this now? What is the assignment of the demonic kingdom? Corporately speaking, we know that Satan has a personal assignment ultimately to gain dominion and to bring transgenerational allegiance. But as a demonic structure, what exactly is their assignment? Write this down to fight. And frustrate the purposes of God by any and all means. That's it, to fight and frustrate the purposes of God by any and all means. This is the corporate motto and the corporate assignment of the demonic kingdom to fight and frustrate the purposes of God by any and all means, to fight and frustrate the purposes of God by all means. Please look up when we say the purposes of God, what are we talking about? Coming to the knowledge of Jesus Christ. The first assignment of Satan, in order of priority, is to stop everybody who is on it, if possible, from coming to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. That is Plan A. If Plan A does not work and you now give your life to Christ, the next assignment is to frustrate your efficiency in terms of your growth and your efficiency in serving the purposes of God. Is it clear enough now? Everywhere you see Satan, everywhere you see demons. Everywhere you see evil men in partnership with these spirits. This is their corporate mandate to fight and to frustrate the purposes of God. And in order of priority, Satan's plan. A is who make sure that they do not come into the knowledge. Because the Bible says in John seventeen and US three, it says and this is eternal life. That they may know thee, the One through God John seventeen three. This is eternal life, he says, that they may know you, the One through God and Jesus, whom thou hast sent away together. Now, what is eternal life the knowledge of Jesus. Eternal life is not. Just responding to an altar call that through the preaching of the gospel. I am not ashamed of. The Gospel, he says, for it is the power of God onto salvation to everyone that believes. Everyone. Satan and the Satanic Kingdom corporately speaking, have a singular assignment to fight and to frustrate the purposes of God by any and all means. The chief phrase here is any and all means. Sickness is part of the any and all means agenda. Please look up delay any and all means agenda causes everything you call destruction. All the expressions of his wickedness is part of that any and all means agenda. If Satan can use an accident, you will use it. If you can use a plane crash, you can. You will use it. If you can use your dying, he will use it. If you can use your being sick. He will use it anything at all that will achieve that purpose. He will use it any and all means. It's an attempt to describe the extent of his determination and desperation. Can I tell you this, when you want to study desperation, study Satan. A man who is already aware of his eminent defeat, and yet in that imminent defeaty makes up his. Mind without fail that he will keep fighting. I hope you know that it's not only Christians that studied the Bible when Satan came to Jesus. At least we know how Jesus learneds scripture in the flesh. He went to the temple to study. So how did Satan lend his own all through scripture? Every Body who understood scripture understooded by study. If man understood scripture, he understood by study. Even the Word of God understood scripture as a human versual by study. So how do you think Satan knew what was written? The only way to be approved is to study? Is that true? Satan, alongside demons and evil spirits, make up the Satanic kingdom, And then they have a singular assignment to fight and frustrate the purposes of God by any means, we conclude from these scriptures that Satan has an operational system. Now I want to teach you we have looked a bit at the structure. I don't want to go into the details. Hopefully in another teaching that relates to this will look at what principalities and powers and rulers are. But all of these things just define three things. Listen in understanding. Maybe I should just put a word or two in understanding the structure of Satan. The structure of Satan is defined according to three things. Number one geography, number two functions. Please understand this. Geography means location. There are spirits that reside in heavenly places, that is their jurisdiction. There are spirits that reside in specific geographic regions. For instance, Gadara, do not cast us out of this region. Are we together now? So in structuring the Satanic kingdom Satan use a number of factors. Number one is geography. The Bible shows us that these demons themselves, they are not geography. Number two functions. For instance, you can read in your Bible certain spirits called the spirit of death, a lying spirit, the spirit of infirmity. When we're dealing with deliverance proper, you will be learning that one of the ways we administer scriptural deliverance is not necessarily by knowing the name of every demon. You can identify them by the operation. Are we together now? Yes? In fact, the Bible tells us one time when Jesus came and met an epileptic patients and the disciples were trying to cast out that demon, and nothing happened. The Bible says, he rebuked the. Death and domb spirit, and then number three I gave you to number three ranking. There are ranks. There are ranks not only for angels, but there are ranks even for demon spirits. An example of that we see is in March chapter five. Were coming there when Jesus met the madman in Gadara, and he said, what is your name? He said, my name is Legion, for we are many. So there was a legion, but it was not a legion that spoke. There was one person who spoke on behad half of that legion. Do you agree that there is ranking number two? Jesus himself was speaking about deliverance, and he said, when a spirit leaves him man, he says, it goes through dry regions. Is that true. Sourcing for a place of rest, not finding any The Bible says, it will say, let me go back to my house, and it will go back to his house. Who is the house now, the. Human vessel or any material vessel, and he will find it swept and clean. And the Bible says that spirit will go. Back and bring seven orthers. Greater than it. So there is ranking classification the structure of the demonic kingdom. Let me recapy again. Number one is based on geography, geography. There is the prince of past year. The Bible identifies him with that geography. And then number two based on what function infirmity, sickness, conditions, and so on and so forth, and then number three based on ranking. Let's go to the operational system. I'm interested in this now, the operational system. We're looking at the structure and the operation of Satan and the demonic Kingdom. Now we're looking at the operational system. Please look up every organization, and indeed every kingdom has a modus operandi that means they have a way that they operate. Are we in agreement with that? It is important to know how Satan operates. This is where spiritual intelligence comes in. Please I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, that no spirit would distract you while you are listening to me, because for some of you you are going to be God is going to be opening up to you. It is no mystery how Satan operates. The Word of God in black and white, very clear ms reviews to us how Satan operates two Scriptures, efficients six eleven. Does Satan have an operational system? Yes, sir, put on the whole armor of God that we may be able to stand against the wilds the word whilst there is the word schemes or devices, the wiles of the devil, schemes of the devil. So Satan does not just attack. There is a system. There is a game plan. There is a destruction plan. It does not just stand up and move around and say, how do I destroy this family? There is a plan. Second Corinthians, chapter two and verse eleven. Let's read together. If you can see projected one to read less. Satan should gain an advantage of us uhah, for we are not ignorant of his devices, devices, devices strategies. Now, please play very close attention. Let's identify from scripture some of the things that Satan and demons are involved with while looking from the lens of scripture. Now we want to examine a few activities of Satan and demon spirits. The activities help us reveal the structure. Are we together, I mean the operation? Now when you look at what Satan does, you're also find in what he does, how he does it? Are we learning? Are we giving you a few scriptures? Number one, Satan and demons fight. Write it down shows us that Satan and even demons spirits that they fight. Revelations, chapter twelve and verse seven. Revelations Chapter twelfth and verse seven. There was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought, and the Bible says the dragon fought and his angels fought. So it is part of Satan's character and it is part of Satan's modus of randi to fight two Satan hinders or he resists first. The Salonian chapter two and verse eighteen. Satan resists, Demons resists. He says, wherefore we would have come to you, even I Paul once and again, but Satan hindered us, who hindered them? Satan a spirit can hinder men, if Satan can hinder an apostle. It means he can try to hinder breakthrough. He can try to hinder lifting anything that is coming to you for your advantage. It is possible for Satan to try to hinder Number three. Satan and demons also they steal, they kill, and they destroy. John ten ten. Everything that applies to Satan also applied to demon spirits. Satan, and indeed demon spirits kill, they steal, they kill, and they destroy. John ten ten. The thiefs comet not but for to steal. Most serious and robots go in groups away together when they want to rob, say a bank. You don't find an individual, no matter how strong. It's usually a coordinated activity. The Bible says, he comment not but for to steal, to kill, and to destroy. So Satan steals, what does he steal anything at all? What does he kill? Everyone? And everything? Next? Activity that reveals the modus of randi of Satan? Are you ready? Satan and Demon's lie start that one? John Okay, let me give you one more scripture about stealing, killing, and destroying Matthew, Chapter thirteen and verse nineteen. Please write it down, Matthew thirteen and verse nineteen. The Bible lets us know that Satan is a thief. Jesus was teaching. This in the Parable of the Soar. When anyone hearing the word of the Kingdom and understand that it's not, he says, then comet the wicked one another word for Satan, and capture a way that which was sown in his heart. Can we imagine how Satan steals? He can steal and even enter your heart, your heart that a doctor needs to use knife to open it, Satan can enter and steal, or your spirit or whatever it is. He can steal anything. No one that he can. Put a disease in your body without surgery, no one that he can put anything there, and he can carry something. That was good. But in the name of Jesus Christ, he's finally meeting his resistance forever. Next point Satan and Demond's lie John eight forty four. Satan, by his consistency of lying, ends himself a title that Jesus himself acknowledged as. The father. Of your father, the devil and the lost of your father. The loss of your father you will do, for he was a motherer from the beginning. And are bored not in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he's speaketh a lie. He's in his default state. That means when Satan feels a lie, there's no point feeling guilty. That's who he is. There are Euroba people who speak Euroba and English and Houser and other tribes. But when you are speaking your local dialect, you speak it with confidence and joy. Just what the Bible is telling you. You ever doubted Satan's language? What tribe is he? That's it right there. The Bible says that Satan, when he's speaketh a lie, Jesus is talking now, he's speaketh. Of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it. The word father dear is the same word that is used towards God Abba, an originator and a defender of a course. That means it came from you, and you guard you to make sure it remains Ah, the father of lies. I told you to start that one. You will soon know why. Next point very quickly. Satan is a master of falsehood. He disguises himself. He uses the strategy of the guise of falsehood, the strategy of these guys. Or falsehood. Second Corinthians eleven and verse fourteen. Satan disguises himself. Are you ready? And no marvel, he says, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of lights. One of the strategies of Satan is that he can use the tool of falsehood. He can disguise himself. Next, Satan deceives. Start at one. Please, Satan deceives. We're studying the models of RANDI of Satan. Satan deceives, second Corinthians eleven, and use three. Satan deceives. He's a master deceiver. Are you learning tonight? But I fear less by any means. As the seven big girl Eve. The word there is deceived. He began Eve through his subtilty. So your mind should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. You know what probably saying, probably saying that Satan employed a strategy and deceived. If you know, I told you that Adam was not deceived. Adam felt because of love. It was Eve that was deceived. Away together absolutely in your Bible, we're going to read that there is Adam was not deceived. It was Eve that fell. Eve was deceived, and Adam followed her because he loved her. The second Adam, who is Jesus, was he deceived? He came willingly because he loved his Eve, the church the same pattern you see. So Adam, Adam was not deceived. It was Eve that was deceived. No, no, no, it doesn't listen listen this. I already know. I know what is in your heart. And okay, let me show you first demoted two ande verse fourteen. If you think first emoted to fourteen fourteen firstimoted too and verse fourteen. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Women fall because of deception. Men fall because of love. So next time you say you are falling in love, ask yourself, most you fault? The in love is not. The issue, is the fact that most Let's get back to our discussion. We're discussing something very serious tonight. I reject distraction. In Jesus' name. Satan deceives, He's a master deceiver. Are we learning Revelations twelve and. Verse nine one last scripture that talks about the extent of his deception? And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the devil and Saturn, which deceived the whole world? Have you imagined that he deceives the. Finally, we see from scripture that Satan is an accuser. The Bible calls him the. Accuser of the Brethren. He does not just accuse anyhow, he looks for brethren. The accuser of the Brethren, were identifying some of the activities of Satan and demons to be able to help us to peace out by the intelligence of the spirit. A modus operandi, a structure. Now, please write this. Of all the strategies and operations of Satan, Of all the strategies and the operations of Satan, the most. Pronounced in the Bible is deception. Of all the strategies and operations of Satan, the most pronounced in. The Bible is deception. Can you imagine that that of the many strategies that we see that certain deploys, the most pronounced, based on scripture is deception. Please say deception one more time, said deception. Write this down. What does it mean to deceive? We're now building and understanding on the operation of certain demons and the Dark Kingdom. What does it mean to deceive? Are you ready? To deceive means to deliberately cause someone to believe something that is not true. To deceive means to deliberately cause someone to believe something that is not true command, usually for personal. Gain or to take advantage of. I'll take it again. To deceive means to deliberately underline the world deliberately. Please. To deceive means to deliberately cause someone to believe something that is not true. To deliberately cause someone to believe something that is not true comma, usually for personal gain or to take advantage of. What defining deception? Now that to deceive means to deliberately cause someone to believe something that is a lie it is not true, for your personal gain, the gain of the deceiver, or so that the deceiver can take advantage of the deceived. Of all the operations of Satan, the most pronounced, according to Scripture is deception. That means he is a master. He has mastered the art of making people believe what is a lie, and by causing them to believe it, he can take advantage of them. Less Satan should take advantage of us because we are not ignorant that he is a deceiver and that the only way he takes advantage of believers is when he brings you to a point where you believe and are convicted. In something that is not true. Powerful. Write this now, are you learning. Deception which is the same thing as falsehood? I want to define it for you now. Deception, which is the same thing as falsehood, is a statement or action that is intended to mislead, command, hide the truth, command, or promote a false belief or idea. I'll take it again. Deception, which is the same thing as falsehood. Deception is a statement or action. Is a statement or action that is intended to mislead, command, hide the truth, command, or promote a false belief or idea. That's the definition of deception. A statement or action that is intended to mislead, hide the truth, or promote a false belief or idea. Full stop. You may want to add this. It is often done for personal gain. Deception or falsehood is a statement or action that is intended to mislead, hide the truth, promote a false belief or idea. Full stop. It is often done for personal gain. Isn't this powerful? That the chiefest strategy of Satan, as far as carrying out his agenda, is in the midst of all of these activities that we listed from scripture, that the greatest and the most pronounced is deception. Write this down pleas about deception very important point. Deception cannot happen until the. Deceiver is aware of the truth. Wow, deception cannot happen until the. Deceiver is aware of the truth. It's impossible for deception to happen until the deceiver is aware of the truth because the affire the men of the deceiver is to make the deceived to not understand or not receive the truth. That means for you to be a deceiver. The qualification to be a deceiver is that you must have access to the truth. Deception cannot happen until the deceiver, in this case, Satan is aware of the truth. So is it true that Satan knows that Jesus is Lord? Is it true that Jesus that Satan knows that there is victory given to the saints. Is it true that he knows that there is no other name on the heaven by which we must be said? Is it true that Satan knows that Jesus is now resurrected. Holding the keys of life? Is it true that Satan knows that Jesus gave us the authority of him? No wonder he does his ministry of deception so well because the basis of deception is that you must know the truth. Is someone learning now? It is impossible for a deceiver to be a deceiver in ignorance because a deceiver the character of deception is that the very act of deception is done intentionally. Are we learning? Now? Let's take a structured Biblical study. I wanted to read a few scriptures that talk about deception, but will jump it for the sake of time. I want us to take one case study. Who are studied now? How Satan operates? Are you ready? Want to take one Bible story and then we'll examine it closely? And I thought you here that bologically speaking, there is what we call the law of first mentioned that every time you want to study a subject, a thought, or an idea, your first assignment is to go to where it was first referenced in scripture and understand the contextual explanation or usage that becomes your interpretation everywhere that word or that thought is used. Is that true? So we'll go to Genesis? What before? Then, let's look at two or three scriptures John eight forty four. John eight forty four. Let's start from where we left off. Jesus is speaking now and Jesus himself said a few things that are very interesting about the devil. You are of your father, the devil and the loss of your father, ye will do. He was a murderer when. He was a murderer from the beginning, and a board not in the truth. Do you know what this means? Jesus did not say he was ignorant. Of the truth. He says he refused to abide to live in the truth. He will fully came out of that realm of truth. He are born not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he's speaketh of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it. Keep that scripture, Second Corinthians eleven three. Second Corinthians eleven three. But I fear ASPAULI speaking. To the church in chrinth less by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve. So apos supouse here is using a story to show us the deception of Satan. Are you saying where Paul is leading us to? Now? Paul is saying, if you want to study the deception of Satan, study what happened with Satan and Eve in the garden of Eden. Because he's saying, Satan will still use that strategy against you. Are you see now he's saying, just as Satan beguid Eve too subtilty, he will also come to you and do something to you the same way he worked with Eve. Do you know what he's saying. He's saying when it has to do with that strategy, it is his master's strategy. He will not change it. You study Satan's operation by studying what happened between him and Eve first tooty two and verse thirteen, where you read and laughed. Now, I hope you don't laugh again, because we're getting into a very serious discussion now. For Adam was first formed, then Eve the we believe this verse fourteen. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Johnny, with meladies and gentlemen, Let's go to the book of the Beginnings and see what exactly happened there Genesis chapter three, story story. Now, the serpent was more subtle. Than any beasts of the field which the Lord had made, and he said onto the woman. Now, when you read this, you will think it's just something that happened immediately in a matter of minutes. The Bible is written in summary, and so it does not give us the depth of the discussion because this is not just something that happened within minutes. I told you that in studying scripture, you have to use the mind of literature. You have to use the mind of a historian, you have to use the mind of an archeologist, and then you have to use the understanding of a spiritual man. These are the four components you need to thoroughly study scripture. If all you have is the mind of a spiritual man, as powerful as that is, you will not really understand the Bible. Because the Bible has a literature component, the Bible has a historical component, the Bible has an archeological component, and then it has largely a spiritual component. Are we learning now? Watch carefully, please, were studying Satan now and he set onto the woman. Yeay ha, God said, ye shall not eat of every three in the garden. Now, please listen carefully, go back to verse one. Do you know why Satan came to the woman directly to talk to her. It's not because she was female. There was something about the structure of dominion. Are you getting the point now. That when God gave Man to me in the garden of Eden. It was very clear that even though Adam and Eve as spirits had dominion, but based on that ethly structure within the family contact in the garden, Adam and Man was head over her away together now and Satan would not come directly and attack the head. But he knew that there was a connection between Adam and Eve. There was something he understood that he would not be able to easily deceive Adam. But he knew that based on that structure, there is a connection between Adam and Eve, and the connection is love, and that genuine love is love that comes with sacrifice. So he didn't need to deal with the man. He was not dealing with the man simply because he knew that once he got the woman, the love the man had for the woman would be why he would fall, So he didn't have to waste his time. There are you getting the idea now. That if I can get if you will be seeing it that when if it she gave her husband what you call eating. Now, for the sake of this discussion, we'll still keep it at that. Most people think she just ate and called him and self with her. Where are you. You will find out in the Bible he was standing right there with her. He fell because of love. The Bible says, Satan came and met the woman. Now watch this. Notice the first thing his conversation with the woman, Yeah, have God said? Can you imagine the beginning of his discussion, mentioned God, satany look at the structure of his deception? Have God said? That means I told you that deception cannot work until what is true is known. Are you seeing the pattern here? Now? Satan wanted, All I need to know is what God told you. That is the raw material for my fabricating my deception. That means Satan has no business coming to your life until God speaks. The moment God speaks, Satan says, now I have something to work with. What did God tell you about your child? What did God tell you about your destiny? What did God tell you about your ministry? Deception is not possible until there is an awareness. Of the truth. In this case, what God said. Because everything God says is yay and amen, let God be true? And all men liars are we learning? And he said onto the woman, yay have God said, ye shall not eat off every tree of the garden. Of Eden. Are you noticing that there's something with that statement? He was doing something to the truth. When I tell you truth can kill, Believe me, it's not only a lie that kills. He did something that forced that to defend what God said. Now the woman Verse two, The woman said, sat, and you didn't get that right. Let me correct you. This is what he said, we may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden. And he was listening. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Godhead said, ye shall not eat it, neither shall ye touch it less he die. Satan said, thank you. Now, let me show you that I have an advantage of age over you. That's four. Do not be ignorant of the devil's devices. Are we letting how Satan operates? Now when Satan comes to you, the raw material. For his attack is what God has said. And the serpent said, unto the woman, ye shall not surely die. Are you saying now, vers, do you know what he was doing to her hair? She was shaking the basis for her obedience. That means, now that I know what God has said, I know that faith is obedience. My next assignment is to do something to you for God. Don't know that in the day that ye eat thereof your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as the Gods, knowing good and evil. Satan was saying, God is so insecure. There is something he's hiding from you, and that is why he vetted out his insecurity by putting a straight rule. Don't mind him. Trust me, there is something I know. When you eat this, your eyes will be opened and you will be like him, knowing good and evil. The six When the woman saw everybody say when the woman saw hm. The discussion started by saying, but by the time we get to this point, she has perceived. So there does not just mean eyes. She has conceived as a reality. The woman did not fall by eating the food. Eating the fruit was proof she had fallen. This was where the fall started, perception. Don't think he just came to her one day and spoke to her. No, that's why I told you. The Bible is written in some you need to use. You don't come like that in one day and convince someone. Go and read your Bible. The Bible spoke. About Joseph and forty first wife. How many times did she come to him frequently judas is carry out. It was not just once they met him. And said, deceive Jesus. It's within the character of Satan to be consistent. The same way you don't come up most times. You don't meet a woman once and they marry me and then you have to come. That's fructure. Satan was patient and. Came, and he said, when the woman finally saw that the tree was good for food and. That it was pleasant to the that's not normal. Seeing my brothers and sisters. There is a kind of seeing that attacked her spirit away together. The Bible says, the tree to be desired. Look at all this, Look at these emotional expressions. If more than just seeing it three, she was always looking at the tree. What did she now see? The Bible says, she took off the fruit thereof and did eat. Maybe in another time, as God helps us, I will really explain to you what it really means, the concept of the tree and the fruit. But so that I don't disrupt the flow of what we're doing, we just accept it as eating. But you see the concept of eating and the tree. These are prophetic expressions. It may not necessarily mean tree and foot, but it does not interrupt our understanding, even if we understand it that way, So we'll continue. The Bible says, she did eat. Please everybody read the remaining part and get also onto her husband with her? Is it in your Bible? What did he do? Did he throw it? She acts? Now, what's what happened? Do you know that when she acts there was no effect? It was when he ate that something happened, because the ship only stutters when you strike the shepherd. She ates, and she gave him at from deception, he eat from love. In any case, they act, that's the bottom line. And then the Bible says, the moment that happened, notice Satan stopped talking to them. He was over. You thought that after eating? You said, now, how do you feel? That is the structure of deception. Now that he had achieved his goal, he would now leave them with God, and he says, now off I go. The Bible says, the eyes of them were open. Did you tell them something like that will happen? Absolutely, he said, your eye will open. But they did not understanderstand what he meant, the Bible says, and they kneew. Now, notice what happened here? There was already a disruption in the way God arranged the spirit of a man. Because the way God designed man was the spirit of a man was supposed to have the highest level of accendance in direct touch with the Spirit of God. The body would barely be an instrument of execution. Are we together? The mind that consists of the will, emotion, and the intellect would midwife the spirit and the body. These adjusted the platforms for the spirit to be able to operate with the body. And now we see that something is wrong. You can see that the soul came alive. The eyes of them were open, and they knew they were naked. You see shame attributes of emotions. They sought fig leaves and made aprons. They run away. God is about to speak, and they had the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day. And Adam and his wife hit themselves. Everybody is a fear. They hit themselves from the presence of the Lord. Should you run away from the presence of the Lord. But now we see something happening to them. Are you seeing the way Satan works? He did not have to keep talking. The destruction can happen whether he's there or not. He's a programming. He has turned something to them, the same way Satan can come and do something to a village, and after thirty years it is still working, whether. His supervisors or not. It's like a software. Now he left these people. The next time we heard him talking was in answer to a question God asks him. Left the woman deception, and. Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of God among the trees of the garden verse nine. And the Lord called on to Adam. Are you seeing how God respected his. Own structure when he came? He never spoke to the woman until man gave him permission to speak to the woman. When it came, he spoke to the man who had that seat of authority and dominion. Adam, you are. The one I put alongside your wife. What has happened? I looked spiritually, and I don't see you sitting on that throne of dominion again. When he said, Adam, were dowb. God, God speaks spiritually. There was a position that you could see. You could look down to the eath and know that the man in charge is seated there. It is that same. Position that the demon said, Jesus. I know Paul. When we look in the spirit, we all those who have dominion, We see that position. Where are you, Adam? Where are you? You are lost? Adam? Who shifted you without pushing you? Who shifted you? Who get Marcy over you and make you to move here? Off you love the place of power? And yet force was not used on you. That is the power of deception. There the king Halle Fewan, the three halle over cave. Hello, listen, are you saying what Satan did? They thought he was just a conversation. They did not understand the spiritual implication. Adam, I check the place of authority, and you are not there. Where are you? This is a tragedy that came upon men. You need to lend this because he's coming and he will use the same thing. Remember the structure. What did God say? God did not mean what you will say, and he would keep coming to you every day. He knows that persistence is powerful. Satan does not speak ones. Let me tell you how he speaks. He uses words, he uses men, he uses things, he uses pain. He's still the one speaking. He will employ everything until he shifts. You from that place. There is a place where when you stand Adam, now let me teach you something powerful. For as long as man did not cooperate with Satan, Satan looked powerless. He was with them and could not touch them. He was with them and could not touch them. The power of Satan is in your falling for his deception, there was absolutely nothing he could do to Adam and Eve. The best he could do was speak. He had to depend on their seeing and their participating with his lives. And the Lord told him where are you? First? Then he's what Adam said. I heard your voice in the garden, but I was afraid. Something has happened to me. I heard your voice clearly. I've not lost my hearing, but I've lost my position. I was afraid because I was naked. Do you know what that means? The glory and the chakaina that covers me has left. Something has happened to me, And I hid myself because I know what it means to not be covered by your glory Verse eleven, and he said, who told you that you were naked? Every time God comes to rescue you, the first question is. Who told you? You? Have opened up your ears? Another influence That means, in any case, whether you are restored. Or you are deceived. It is based on what you were told. Now understand the power of words. No, Adam, you've fallen. Who told you? I'm tracing the root cause of your problem. It came from information. Listen carefully, dear father, dear grandfather. Dear region. Where did this witchcraft come from? It was not from the shrine. It came from who told you. Someone called you and said, there is a way we make money in Nigeria. You cannot just make money like that. Let me tell you sincerely, if it's money you want to make, there is one man you said, no, no, no, let me think about it. Is what was happening to is is happening to you? When Satan uses that? Do you see that that was the same thing that happened with Jesus said and came to Jesus directly. That was the last time you will come directly. The next time he used the emotion of Peter. Then he used Judas in any case he felt he got in. Who told you that you were naked? Have you participated with what you heard? Did you do something about what you heard? Because every word we hear does not profit us if we don't mix it with faith. No matter what it is that you hear. If you have not mixed it with faith, the Bible says. It will not profit those who hear it. So if Satan says chill yourself, it remains as a thought for as long as you don't act on it. Wow. If you wake up from a dream and in that dream you see an accident, and all of a sudden you allow far and you start thinking, that is Satan speaking. So this is how I would die. You are receiving it. You may not know. You don't received by your hands alone. The principle way of receiving is your mind. You only have with your hand. You receive with your spirit. You receive with your mind. Hast thou eaten of the tree? Whereof I commanded. Thee that thou shouldn't eat. The first demonstration of irresponsibility as recorded. In the Bible. Are you ready? And the man said the woman? Is that the answer, Adam, have you eaten of the tree? Yes? Or no? What was his answer? The woman? He's showing you. This is the first expression of the weakness that is in humans that we are usually comfortable transferring blames. It is not natural for men to take responsibility by men. Here is genderless humans. Adam, have you eaten of this? The woman that you gave me to be with me? Look at this description not. Longer the woman I love, no longer the one we strolled in the garden together with, the woman that you gave me to be with me. In other words, it's not my fault if I were alone. No way, Satan will not get me. I know you are laughing, but you understand what God istach us here. The family I came from, is why things are happening like that? That's the same answer. You are giving. Why are you not rising because we come from a family of idol worship? That's not the answer. I know you can laugh at Eve, but we're learning now that many of us have been making the same thing. And for as long as your answer seeks to transfer blame, salvation be far from you. Are we learning now? This is a powerful spiritual concept. Two men were hanging on the cross with Jesus Christ. One of them the Bible called them thieves, and one of them was quarreling Jesus paraphrasing, shame on you. We're on the cross. You're on the cross. You can't save us. The other one said, we are seen us. This man is righteous. Jesus looked at one and said, today you will be with me in paradise. What happened to the other one? Now watch this, I'm showing you how Satan, how man transferred the dominion to Satan. What's how it happened. Now, every time you pass. Blame on anything, you also give that thing authority over you. This is spiritual principle. Let me repeat myself again. Every time you pass blame on anyone or any thing. You give that thing authority over you. Blaming situations and circumstances for your life is giving them authority over you, no matter how legitimate you think it is. The man said, the woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she did give me of the tree, and I did it. He did not answer, I did it alone. He had to tie someone else to pushing his guilt, and he said, yes, I heard the hold on, hold on the woman that you gave me is the cause for it. Now are you seeing that? On legal basis? God could not talk to the woman because Satan has handed over responsibility to her. And the Lord said, on to the woman, what is this that thou hast done. Sadly, she made the same mistake. And the woman said, Satan, the serpin big gold me, and I did eat. What is this that you have done? The serpent beguiled me, and I did it. Verse fourteen. He goes to Satan, and the Lord God said to the serpent, because thou hast done this, thou art caused above all cattle and above all beasts of the field, upon thy belly, shall thou go, and thus shalt thou eat all. The days of your life. Verse fifteen. I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy. Seed and her seed. It shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruises here. There's no time to now begin to teach you all these things, he says to the woman. He said, I will. Greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception. In sorrow. Shall thou bring forth children, and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and it shall rule over these seventeen and on to Adam, he said, because thou hast happened to the voice of thy wife. You see now you heard the voice of your wife, and you have eaten of the tree which I commanded. This saying, thou shalt not eat, cause is the ground. The ground is anywhere you saw, Cause is the ground for thy sake. In sorrow, shalt thou eat of it all the days of your life. Eighteen turns and thistles, shall it bring forth onto you? And thou shalt eat of the herb in the field? Nineteen In the sweat of thy face, shalt thou eat bread till thou return to the ground, for out of it wast thou taken, And dost thou art, and on to dust, shalt thou return. Let's stop there. What do we have to learn from this number one? Lessen number one Understanding the operation of Satan, especially his deceptive nature, which is his strongest point over the saints. Number one. I told you that deception cannot happen until there is the awareness of the truth. Do you know what that means? Everything God tells you by speaking to you or by his word, guard it carefully because somebody is coming there. That adversary is coming to vet what God has told you. When Satan comes to you, his primary assignment is to find out what God said, because everything God said represents where He's taking you to. Lessen number two. Are you ready now, God, your heart with all diligence, for out of it comes the. Issues of life. God your ear gates, God your eye gates, because these are the principal channels to which Satan speaks. Can I tell you this if you think Satan will always appear to you and talk to you, it may not always happen like that. But he will use your ear gate, he will use your eye. Gait, because these are the principal gates to your mind. Very soon you understand what Paul was teaching in his Falling Epistle is God helping us tonight. Number three. Faith comes by hearing and hearing and hearing and understanding. It is not just faith towards God comes by hearing the word of God, but faith towards anything comes by hearing the word of that thing. Faith towards destruction comes by hearing the word that makes for destruction. Faith towards failure comes by hearing the word that leads to failure, and hearing again until it crystallizes. In your heart. Satan is a master of deception. He uses the word of God to shift you away from your zone of safety, from your zone of power, from your zone of defense. But in the name of Jesus, with this. Spiritual understanding, someone is gaining momentum and is gaining power to shake off everything that is an arsenal of badness. In the name of Jesus Christ. Write this down very quickly. Levels of Satanic influences very powerful truth you're about to learn. There are three levels of Satanic influences over the Saints, as revealed from scripture. Three levels. Principally number one. Are you ready? Number one is called witchcraft. The first level. Of Satanic influence over the Saints is called witchcraft. Gallatians Chapter three. Please and verse one. Let's hurry up for sake of time. Gallatians three, Verse one, All foolish Gallatians. He says, who hath bewitched you? That you should not obey the truth before whose eyes Jesus had been seen evidently set for crucified among you. Now please look up. The Bible's idea of. Witchcraft is not drinking blood and eating flesh. Those are just extended meanings. The Bible's idea of witchcraft is not going to a coven in the night and having a meeting. I'm not negating those things, but I'm telling you that the standard definition of witchcraft from the Bible has nothing to do with any. Of these things. Witchcraft, according to Bible definition, is anything that can cost you. To air using the tool of deception. That is witchcraft. Costing a man to air, causing a man to go out of alignment using the tool of deception is the Bible's definition of witchcraft. The first way that certain influences men is through witchcraft. That means he uses the tool of deception to cost you to air. Efficients of the five. And verse six efficients after five and verse six, Let no man deceive you with vain words, For because of these things commet the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Notice, every time. There is witchcraft, you see that there is deviation from the truth. There is disobedience in it. What is witchcraft? I wrote here to cause you to think, to act, and to talk. In error using the tool of deception? What is witchcraft again, to cost you to think, to cost you to act, and to cost you to talk in error using the tool of deception? Second Peter, Chapter two, we read from verse one and two. Second Pitch, Chapter two, from verse one and two. Very quick, but. There are false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privilege shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that brought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction last verse verse two. And many shall follow their pernicious ways, by reason of whom the way of the Truth shall be evil spoken of. This is the character of witchcraft. The practice of witchcraft. Does not have to do with some crude African tide activity, even though there is an. Expression of it like that. But principally engaging the tool of deception to cause you to think, to act, and to speak in ways that are inconsistent. With God's ways is witchcraft. So the first demonic influence that Satan has over men, if allowed, is witchcraft. Number two. Are you ready? The second is called. Manipulation and control of your mind. Manipulation and control of your mind. Please start that one, because this is where, even when you are saved, I'm going to be answering the question whether Christians can be possessed or not. Manipulation and control of your mind, this one is principally in the realm of the mind, your mind containing your will, your emotions, and your intellect. Matthew, Chapter sixteen, from verse twenty two and twenty three. Matthew sixteen, twenty two and twenty three. Remember the discussion between Jesus and Peter. Jesus was talking about his dying, and the Bible says that took him. Who took him? Peter, one of the chief disciples of Jesus. He took him and began to rebuke him, saying, be it far from thee, Lord, this shall not happen to you twenty three. But he turned, he being Jesus, and said on to Peter, get THEE behind me. Satan, Thou hast an offense onto me, For thou savoress, not the things that be of God and those that bee of men. You want to find the account that he said Satan has desired. To sift you, go to look twenty two. Will read thirty one and thirty two synoptic account same message. The Lord said, look twenty two, thirty one and thirty two. The Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan had desired to have you that he may sift you as Wit thirty two. But I have prayed for THEE that thy faith fail not. And when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. Satan came to manipulate the compassion like I've taught you of Peter, to stop Jesus from dying. Jesus was talking about his death and to Peter he did not know this was a man who it was not longer. I mean that he had said, I know who thou art. Thou art the Christ, the son of the Living God. Next moment, Jesus is telling him, get the behind me, Satan. Number three the third level of Satanic influence. The third level of Satanic. Influence over the saints is called possession or over men. Really possession. These sorts of complete influence and control of your spirits, mind, and body. Possession, complete influence and control of your spirits, your mind, and your body. Demons can use, Satan can use witchcraft. Next level manipulation and control of your mind. Third level, complete possession, influence and control of your spirit, your mind, your mental faculties, and your body. Mark chapter five. Mark chapter five Carnac supriata. And they came over to the other side. Of the sea, into the country of the gatherings. Let's follow closely down his teaching us that it is possible for demons to completely. Possess a man. And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tongue, a man with and on clean spirit, who had his dwelling among the tones. Are you seeing the character of that man now? And no man could bind him on usual power, No, not with chains? Thus fall, because that when he had, when he had been. Often down with fetters and chains, the chains had been clothed asunder by him. Can a normal man easily do that? You see that now? And the fetters broken in pieces. Neither could any man tame him. And always night and day he was in the mountains and in the tones, doing what crying and. Courting himself with stones. This is the standard character of demonic possession. That this man is haunting himself with stones, and yet he cannot stop, because his spirits, his mental faculties, and sadly his body is on that tote, have control and influence of such a spirit. When Jesus so when he saw Jesus afar off, we're about to learn some lessons. Now, he ran and washiped him. I ask you again, does Satin know that Jesus is Lord? He's about to negotiate a deal, because when he. Saw Jesus he knew. That means every time demons see people who understand their authority, they knew. He saw Jesus, and he knew. And he came and washiped him and cried with a loud voice and said, what have I to do with thee? Jesus, Thou son of the most High? Look at that kind of intelligence. I adjore thee by God that doubt torment me not. Do you know what this means? I use the Father's authority that you submit to to plead with you. I know you are obedient to the Father. And remember He's kind and his loving. Don't torment us? Look at Satan, For Jesus had said. Come out of the man now on clean spirits. Now I love Jesus. And he asks him, what is your name? And the man answered saying, my name is Legion, for we are many. And he besought him much that he should not send them away from the country. Are you saying now territorial constructs of these spirits? That means okay, since we are going to leave the man. It looks like that negotiation. Is not working. Please do us a favor. Can you command that we just come out of him and look for someone within the territory, because based on our structure, this is our territory. Verse eleven. Now there was nigh onto the mountain, a great herd of swine feeding, and the devils besought him and said, I will teach you why demons want bodies. Send us into the swine that we may enter into them. Do you know what? Lesson? Hold on, please go back, go back, Go back to verse twelve. How many of you know that Gadara had so many human beings, and yet the demons are begging. It took us a long time to prepare this body to host us. I thought they would live and just enter anybody. Satan does not have that kind of power to just enter anyhow. It takes a lot. There are processes. He's telling them that even though there are men, as it is right now, the odd jealousy of wanting a body, when are we going to meet a man? Perceive him, manipulate him until we gain entrance. Let us go to peaks. Why will Satan have men scattered in the in the the cap police and yet look for one man? Because there are rules of engagements. I told you even Jesus knocks to enter your life. So when you say it look like Satan can't just get into any life anyhow, It is a lie from other man Eve and from this madman. The demons are pleading. We want to live, but there are rules of engagement. We're not just going to enter anybody. And remember these guys that he's afraid of entering are not born again, because Jesus had not died, and yet he still could not enter them. Send those to peaks, that we may enter into them. Certain and forth with Jesus gave them leave, and the uncleaned spirits went out and entered into the swine, and the herd ran violently down the steam. Can you see that exactly what was happening to the man before was now happening to the peaks. So it was not the bodies, it was the influences that was behind it away together. Now the Bible says they ran down to a steep place. There were about two thousand. Look at how that man was suffering. What came out from him entered two thousand pigs, and all of them could not control themselves. Yet one man was carrying that. Imagine the pain that that man was going through. Let's finish, we're reading to sixteen fourteen. Now was fourteen. And they that fed the swine, and they that fed the swine fled and told it in the city and in the country, and they went out to see what was that that was done. That's fifteen. And when they come to Jesus, they see that the man who was possessed with the. Devil and had a legion. They saw him fitting and clothed and in his right mind. We discussed that last week, that immediately after the deliverance, you told the man who go away. But the next thing that happened after deliverance was that he was with Jesus. He did not leave Jesus. Next week would be looking at the three levels of deliverance. That number one, the spirit influences were cast. Number two, he was with Jesus. He remained with Jesus. And he sat down there, and his remaining with Jesus was doing something to his mind, his right mind, and they were afraid. Last verse, and they. That saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil. And also concerning the swine. Now can it. Christian be possessed with demons. The answer is no, a Christian cannot be posed with demons. The reason is because of the very character of the administration of eternal life. That eternal life demands that you are joined to Christ. And the Bible says he that is joined to Christ is one spirit. But this is the balance. Just because a Christian cannot be possessed does not mean certain does not have an activity that a believer can be a victim of the first two that I listed witchcraft and manipulation and control. It does not matter how born again that believer is the cure for witchcraft, and the cure for. Manipulation and control is not just being. Born again, is putting on the whole armor of God. I will teach you that one. I say now, there are many many believers that are saved and yet will be victims of this. Why efficients for eighteen having their understanding darkened, having their salvation lost, having their understanding backned, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them because of the blindness of their heart. A Christian cannot be possessed, but he can be demonized, manipulated, and controlled. At the solical rem absolutely here is where we need to balance in the body of Christ. And most of you know that I love the body of Christ. I'm sent to the body of Christ. But let us not give the devil the authorization to prey on our ignorance. Said and came to Jesus, Holy Jesus, right, trust Jesus, blameless Jesus. He came to him, spoke with him. It is written. It did not take Jesus being the world to be saved. It didn't take Jesus being born of the world to be saved from that deception. It took him having knowledge and replying back it is written, and get THEE behind me, two things that save Jesus. It is written, and get THEE behind me. Understanding of scripture and understanding of authority are we learning now? So the whole idea that just because you are saved automatically, Satan has nothing to do with your life, it is a lie. It's not true. I can tell you by the authority of Scripture. It is not true. The disciples, the apostles, they continue to tell you how that Satan would come and attempt to challenge them, challenge their minds, challenge their body, and they continue to stand with the operation of the world of God. When Jesus entered the temple and preached and rebuke spirits, the people did not show any evidence that they had any spirit at work in them. It was when he gave the command alleluja. Three levels of Satanic influences, witchcraft through deception, manipulation and control, largely in the realm of your mind. And then complete possession influencing your spirit, influencing your mind, and influencing your body. Now haven't put down all of these things in our discussion? What then is deliverance? What is deliverance? Exodus chapter three, from verse seven and eight. What exactly is deliverance? And the Lord said, Exodus chapter three, from verse seven and eight, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and I have heard their cry by reason of their cask masters, for I know their sorrows. Please read verse eight with me ready read, and I am calmed down. To deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land onto a good land and a large onto a land flowing with milk and honey, onto a place of the Tennanites, and the Heatides and the Amorites, and the Paricides, and the Heavides and the Jebusides. I am calmed down to deliver them. Take note, to take them out and to bring them in. To take them out and to bring them in Scripture number two Colosians, Chapter one from verse thirteen and fourteen. Colosians Chapter one from verse thirteen and fourteen, who have delivered us from the power of darkness and had translated us into the kingdom of His dear son, that's fourteen, in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins. Recall that I've taught you here that there are two dimensions when it has to do with the dealings of God and man. Number one, there is the prophetic dimension realities from God's standpoint, that every time God speaks, he speaks from a rem that is finished. And number two, there is the experiential manifestation of that which God intended happening in time. Two dimensions. When you read the Bible, you will see God establish certain things. For instance, none shall say in Zion I am sick. For instance, we've been believered not we have been not. There is deliverance going on we are delivered. It is our assignment to make that which was spoken become manifest. Are we together? Now? You have to understand this. Write this down please? What is deliverance? I was going through the notes that I made last time I was doing Mister of Deliverance, and I saw this definition. I worked on it a bit. Bodies a powerful definition. Listen carefully. Generally speaking, the word deliverance connotes rescue or freedom from bondage, danger, and evil. Generally speaking, the word deliverance conotes rescue or freedom from bondage, danger, and evil. Generally speaking, this is just a general idea. The word deliverance conotes rescue or freedom from bondage, from danger, and from evil. Deliverance also means salvation. Deliverance also means salvation. Generally speaking, deliverance conotes rescue or freedom from bondage, danger, evil. Let me define deliverance proper now. Deliverance I wrote here is the scripture strategy. Deliverance is the scripture strategy for experientially establishing. I would take it very slowly because I don't. Want you to miss anything here. As long as it is obtained grace to write it. There is victory in that sentence. Are we together? Deliverance is the scripture house strategy for experientially establishing the victory and authority of Jesus Christ. Let me stop there so you're right. Deliverance is the scriptural strategy for experientially establishing the victory and authority of Jesus. Christ over Satan. And demonic forces as it relates to the life and destiny of the believer. Deliverance is the scriptural strategy for experientially establishing the victory and authority of Jesus Christ. The victory and authority of Jesus Christ over Satan and demonic forces. Command over Satan and demonic forces as it relates to the life and destiny of the believer. Establishing the victory and authority of Jesus Christ over Satan and demonic forces as it relates to the life and destiny of the believer. If we're together, say amen, now, listen as I read it without breaking you've been writing. I want you to hear now. Deliver Runs is the scriptural strategy for experientially many establishing the victory and authority of Jesus Christ over Satan and demonic forces as it relates to the life and destiny of the believer. Write this now, believer runs, and by extra spiritual warfare, please don't be tired of writing. Deliverance and by extension, spiritual warfare for the believer in Christ. Deliverance and by extension spiritual warfare for the believer in Christ's. About establishing and manifesting victory rather than fighting for it. Deliverance and by extension, spiritual warfare for the believer in Christ is about establishing on the land, establishing and manifesting victory rather than fighting for it. Second corinthiance to one, thus four that means deliverance, and then it extends to spiritual warfare for. The believer in Christ. Our idea of deliverance is not fighting for victory, is engaging the systems that establish and manifest the victory that has been wrought in Christ. Do you understand this now? It's important to get this definition. It will mean the world as challenging and contending for that which Christ has given you its concern because there are ideas about deliverance that connot fighting satan. So you are not sure whether you win. You just fight and watch as it happens. That is not scriptural. That would be an endless, struggling ignorance until you are defeated. For the believer, our idea of deliverance. Is engaging the systems and the forces of victory given to us in Christ to establish and manifest our victory in Christ over Satan, over demons, principalities and powerscond Corinthians to fourteen Second Corinthians to fourteen one four. Do we have that? Now? Thanks be onto God. Let's read together. Now, Thanks be. Onto God, which cause said us to triumph where in Christ, not by our ability in Christ, and make it manifest. That's right, the saver of this knowledge by us in every place. Now, thanks be to God who causes us to triumph. We triumph. But there is one who causes us to triumph. The Bible calls him Christ, Jesus. First Corinthians, fifteen fifty seven. First Corinthians, fifteen fifty seven. Let's read together again, Ready one to read. But thanks be to God which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Shout amen. But thanks be to God which give it us, give it us the victory. So when it has to do with deliverance, your concern is not fighting Satan. Your concern is not fighting demons. Your concern is not fighting causes. Your concern is not fighting yours are we together. Your concern is taking advantage of what we call the weapons of. Victory that have been given to you in Christ. We are going to deal with the weapons. What are they? Because the Bible says to put the whole armor of God. But there are weapons of victory that have been given to us. We poor number one the power of the world. We pohon number two the power of the Blood. But three the power of the name given to us ado theater, the power of the world. We deal with that when we go into administering deliverance. The power of the world, the power of the Blood, the power of the Name. All of them are not doing the same thing. No. Deliverance is the scriptural strategy for experientially establishing the victory and authority of Jesus Christ over Satan and demonic forces, as it relates to the life and the destiny of the believer. Deliverance and by. Extension, spiritual warfare for the believer, it's about establishing manifesting victory rather than fighting for it. We're not fighting for it. We have it already. But now our assignment is to know how to engage it to make it manifest. The Bible says right from the foundations of the earth, the Lamb was slain, but Jesus had to come physically and engage the two of being a man working in the earthwork, dying, shedding his blood, going to head this resurrecting to make that which was finished become manifest today. Allelujah, are you learning now? Before we pray, let me. End tonight's discussion by teaching you something very powerful. Access points. Access points HM. That means. By what access points the satan and demons get into the life of the believer or find a place in their minds their bodies. Listen. By the privilege of God's grace, I have studied my Bible from cover to cover, and by the privilege of God's grace, I've had the honor of listening to people who really understand this subject. I have studied my Bible, and I found out as complicated as Satan causes yokes, all task, foundations, ancestry and all these ills are, there are only three access points that Satan has to man and even the believer. Are you ready now not going to in depth of detail, or leave that one for next week, because I want us to take the remaining time and pray for all the sessions. We have some time to pray because there are people who, as you are hearing now, God is granted you that light. And you are saying that the. Strength of Satan is in my cooperating with him to ignorance through deception. He will roar like a lion and act as if he will teach you out when it does. Ask him why he did not enter if and Adam immediately ask him why when the spirits left the mad man they did not enter another man? He should give you the explanation. Where did he keep his power that he could not simply pick any man. Just because you come from a village where there is that cost does not mean you can allow Satan to just manipulate you like that. Now, listen carefully. You're about to learn something that is very very powerful. Access points. Please write it. Are you ready? There are three biblical access points. Number one covenance. Uh huh, covenance. Write it down. The first access point. That gives Satan legitimate access to the lives of men, sadly including believers covenance, please just write it. Number two ignorance, ignorance, number three disobedience. These are the three biblical access points and the only access points that Satan has. If you ever find Satan. Manipulating a life, a destiny, a region, a family, I don't care how long, I don't care how great, believe me when I tell you it is one or more or all of these access points. Number one, covenance. Number two, disobedience, ignorance number three. Of the three, the most effective for Satan is covenance. Do you know why? Because covenance have a transgenerational implication. Covenance, ignorance, and disobedience are all interrelated, but covenance seem to be powerful because it is on a legal basis. Let me touch on covenance. The idea of covenant was not invented by Satan. The idea of covenant was invented by God. It was God's own intelligence to manage the inconsistencies and to manage the emotional frailty of man. Listen carefully. God gave man a will, and the fallen man, by his design, is frail with several emotional vacillations. And if man is going to partner with God sustainably. There has to be a way of binding man that is greater than his emotions. Covenance because covenant is a non emotional activity that means you can't just decide to change it. Anything God wants to do it Man that he wants to take seriously, he will tie covenance to it. My covenant will lie, not break nor alter the thing that is gone forth from my lips. You know, believers play with the idea of covenance, and you will say that everything God takes seriously. Marriage, he took it seriously and he tied it to a covenant. Do you know why? Because he knows, under normal circumstances the couple can. Run away by the next day. So he put covenant a non emotional binding so that it's not about what you feel or you don't feel. There is an influence that is higher than your emotional vacillations. Salvation is a covenant whosoever believes in. If not, there are people who be so bad they don't deserve to be safe. However, because it is. A covenant, whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord, it does not matter who that person is. Provided you confess with your heart. Let me tell you, if you are given the keys for salvation, there are people whose level of evil. If you see them, you will tell them. Don't near this altar, however, because it is a covenant. Whosoever believes in him, even if you are soul, even if you are born, whosoever. The only personalities that salvation does not capture are fallen angels. Salvation is not for angels, and non human spirits are be teaching you the rules of engagement. That is why Satan and demons cannot be forgiven. Salvation is for men. Salvation is for men. The benefit of salvation extends to creation. But animals don't have to give their life to Jesus. They are already under the dominion of man. The same way when if it's nothing happened till adam it. That is the same way. What animals and. Plans do does not matter, provided the man in control is still in touch with God. Are you seeing that now? Animals and sees and all of this only a hash to man because Man had willfully given his authority to Satan. I pray you're getting what I'm teaching you. Covenants are very powerful. Every thing that God wants to do with you. If he wants to take you seriously, there will be covenant because by the frail nature of men. That's why you hear that there are relationships called covenant relationships non emotional. Is that true? When you get a job, watch this. It may not be called covenance, but there is something given to you call. An employment letter. Is that true? It clearly spells the terms. You are going to be giving five hundred thousand every monthing calculated for you per annum. You have thirty days one monthly. You can spread it three or four times. They give you all of those things, and then you sign. The signing is a declaration of your consent that if for any reason I violate these terms. Is that true, the company has a right to punish me based on their models operandi, and that if I comply with these terms, I have a right to take the company to court for defaulting covenance, say covenance. That is the reason why when Satan came to our forefathers, he did not suggest. He called them and said, you want me to help you, let us have an agreement. Now, you see, an altar is simply a system of authorization again. We discuss that next week when we talk about altars. An altar, because you will say that what we call the messicity in heaven, in fact God himself sits his throne, is an altar, a system of authorization. Let us therefore come. Before the throne of grains that we may obtain from that throne. He literally sits on an altar. An alter is a system of authorization. The assignment of an altar is to insist that the terms of a covenant remain binding even when those who initiated it are no more. An altar is the spiritual system that supervises compliance to covenants. There is no true covenant until there is an altar, and that altar is built and ratified with blood, so that even though our forefathers have long gone, even though those who brought all kinds of demonish things have long gone, but the altars that represent the witness are still there. So after fifty years, one hundred years, the spirits have legitimate access to the people within that region, And every time you want to accuse them, they go back and make reference. The altar remains a witness. I am not an illegal occupant in this land. I was willfully invited, and your forefathers and you were in the loins of your forefathers. That is the reason why the sacrament. Of the communion and the sacrament of baptisms, these are covenant type things. To how did you get into Christ. It was by the mystery of that covenant. Doing this, this is my blood of the New co And do this as often. As you can in remembrance of me. Are we together now watch this? When the Angel of Death was going to pass over Egypt, remember the condition for salvation was not your personal righteousness, whether you were a Jew or not. Just find a house. The house did not have emotions. For by that there is blood on the house, whoever is in it, you are saved. But when you are in that house, even though you are. Saved, there will still be a difference. If you wanted to become a Jew there you have to submit yourself to circumcision. However, as far as safety from the Angel of Death is concerned, the angel does not see men. He's looking for the blood. You know why, because the Angel of Death. Was mandated to kill everybody. And like we're saying theology, when he came to some homes, he found them already there because the blood is a sign that the death that should happen has happened. So the angel of death will pass. As far as the angel of death is concerned, he killed everybody. It's only that when it came some people, someone had helped him kill the ones in the house. So he moves to the house where there is no blood and creates blood there. Listen. That is the same way when a covenant has been ratified by blood. And authorization is given that. Everybody who comes from this region, this spirit, when you see them, have no fear. Through ancestry, through bloodline, or through their personal activities. They have brought themselves to that point. That is the reason why when you are dealing with issues of legal access, you do not cast it in Jesus' name. It is the blood that speaks. There are rules of engagement. Look at me powerful as God is. He did not casting out of man. You will think God will look at man and say I am God, I am creator. Man be free. No, when he gave Satan the authority, it was willful and it would take the blood. This is why a lot of believers just pray and say it is done, and it is not done because they do not understand the power of the covenant that brought them the trouble. Go and read the history of many Lands. You will hear that the very human beings, the very people. Are life. Do you know the power of blood and the power human beings were the values of God's creation? And you're not just carelessly say I don't believe. I forced my mind to think right, you are joking. It takes the blood. And you see in the realm of the spirit, blood is currency. And from the physical world, you know that there's dollars, there's nira, there's pounds, there's whatever it is. I don't know how much one dollar is to nayra. Now don't say it allelujah, But one thing we know is that it's not one narrah to one dollar away together because the blood of Jesus speaks better things. Every blood speaks something, but with respect to what we want. The only blood that can speak to the degree one million arrah can pay for rent of a certain kind of house. But you can look at a certain house and you know that as wonderful as. One million is, it can go beyond it. You will need something else. The blood of Abel, the blood of rules, the blood of goats. They could do something in the realm of the spirit, but when Jesus came, listen, please don't mix. Next next week, as I teach you the power of the blood, the blood is powerful, everybody's blood, including your own, you will be learning that the blood is one of the weaknesses on earth. Do you know what that means? There are three things that have lived as long as the earth. One of it is water. This water you are drinking. You are not the first person to drink it because it recycles. You don't know who else has taken it before it got to you. That's why the Bible says water. Is a weakness. It has lived long on earth, recycling itself. And blood. Nobody invents its own blood. It is past. That means the blo Lord, and everybody is typically older than that person except your denying biology. Is that true? I'm not a doctorable, let's me intelligent. For God's sake. It took that blood to bring you, so the blood cannot be at the same age with you. There are three witnesses in heaven, the Spirit, the World. And the Father. The Spirit and the world, and these three agree, and on earth there are three witnesses. The Spirit, the water, and the blood. Many of us have found ourselves in situations to listen to me. We're rapping up. You are prayed and prayed and prayed. And fasted, and as soon as you are done with the first thing, the same thing you prayed about happens. Casually, as if you were wasting your time. In all that first thing, you were praying to stop some spirit that is coming to molest you. And just when you finish the last first that sleep you just took a little siest, and that spirit comes again to rubbish or first thing. Because there are rules of engagement, there are people who not listen to me. The fact that you are not listening to me is a sign that there is an attack already. That is a symptom of an attack. Listen. I will always tell you I'm not just speaking from scripture alone. I'm speaking from experience. There are things in your life that will never grow. There are things in your life that will never thrive until you understand the rules of engagement. For everybody is seated here under the sound of my voice. Listen to me, who is trusting God for some kind of liberty for yourself? For your children or for your family. Please hear me. There are only three access points. As complicated as your life may seem, don't let the devil confuse you. It looks like there are one million doorways. It's a lie. There are only three access points. One covenance, two ignorance, free disobedience. That's it. So you know what to close to be free, and ye shall know the truth. When you know the truth, when both the. Deceived and the deceiver know the truth, deception dies. The strength of deception is that the deceiver knows the truth, and that's what he uses as an advantage. When the ignorance of the deceived cooperates with the knowledge of the deceiver, deception happens. The cure is not necessarily driving the deceiver alone, but that the deceived must also come to the point of knowledge. When you come to that point of knowledge, now that deceiver does not. Have an advantage over you. If a visitor comes to meet two of us, or someone comes to meet you and your say, your sibling, and he gives ten ten thousand, and he says, give everybody. If you didn't hear it, or you didn't know that, there is a share for you there the person. Can even give you one thousand, and you can kneel down. You can't even say go away. This was for me? Is that true? But if for any reason you find a way, when the person wants to solve that problem, you will come it in and you will tell Let me repeat what I said. I said this ten thousand is for everybody. When you share it, that contention dies because immediately now you know the truth. I'm based on the truth. You know you can say my ten thousand, no stories, hand it over to me now in peace. Your boldness is based on the quality of the information and the persuasion that you have when you rebuild the devil and speak and then you go back and you're afraid, and ah, did I talk too much? Oh? God, forgive me. It's because you are not sure of. Something that generates the power and the courage. Listen. I have held many charms with my bare hands. I have prayed for many people. This what I do. I have seen many spirits, I have met many demon spirits. I can tell you the strength of Satan is in his power to deceive. The strength of Satan is in the continual ignorance of the saints. The strength of Satan is in the inaccurate construction of our spiritual understanding. For John one five says, the light shine it in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it. Not. When you go to your village, you most likely may see shrines, You most likely may see a lot of demonic things around. Just toiling it with ignorance will cost you casualties. But when light comes, I don't know how true it is. What I hear is the story of Archbishop Benson Hida. Hoosa, when. I think someone dropped the dead chicken or something of that sort, and they saw the chicken. It was supposed to be a ritual for them to die. And they carried the chicken and said, we can't waste this chicken like this. And they boiled it and ate it in peace, and they went and slept and they woke up. Because you see, before Satain attacks, he finds out what God told you, and he finds out whether you know and. Believe what God told you. The trouble is if you believe what God told you and you know how to make it happen and remain in your life. Now you have defeated him totally. One last scripture, and then we begin our prayer Isaiah forty. Nine as are forty nine. Let's start from verse that should be twenty four, as are forty nine, twenty four. Shall the prey be taken from the Mighty? It's a question or the lawful captive? You know who a lawful captive is. A loveful captive is. One who was bought from a slave master, because those days they used to sell human beings, just like chickens. And so if I'm a slave and my slave master. Comes and exchange money with someone and they transform me, i am still a slave. I am a lawful captive. Number two. If a king leads a delegation to go for war and they conquered the people until the king, all the people within that land become slaves, is that true? They are called lawful captives, for instance Israel. In Egypt, they were lawful captives. That's why they could whip them to build those pyramids and all. Those Egyptian buildings. But it's saying, is there a possibility that when the Mighty has taken a prey or the lawful captive, can he be delivered? Let the Lord answered by himself, But thought saith the Lord, even the captive of the Mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the Terrible shall be delivered. For I will contend with him that contented with them, and I will save your children. There is a cure to demonic covenants. There is a cure to yolks and spells and hexes, and all of these things. Please hear me, there is a cure. When Jesus Christ hung on that cross, it was not just the body of a thirty three. Year old man hanging. His blood was touching the earth, that old head, that is one of the witnesses. When he drained his blood, and according to the revelation of Paul to the church in the Hebrew Church, when he went as a high priest and. A lamb, also he poured his blood once and for all. And he returned back to the heath and said all hal He said, all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Listen, John said, I wept. For no man the mist men are doomed. I wept for no man is worthy to open the book. And unlock the scroll. And the elder said. With not, with not, Oh, crying comes to one end, with not with not, for behold, the lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of Bavid, has prevailed. The word prevailed needs qualified to open the book. I lose the seven fields the six and I beheld. And in the. Midst of the throne were four beasts, and in the midst of the elders stood a lamb, as though he had been sleep, having seven horns and seven eyes. The lamb that was sleep. Now one to the lamb upon the throne we raise, We raise, call you a guard God alone handed. High. Now one to the lamb upon the road we ride aid. Y troll, You a God and God alone. Listen. Can I tell you this, The lion of the tribe of Judah has prevailed. Listen, listen. There are people today who, under normal circumstances, you should not rise. I don't know what my forefathers did. I don't know what they did. In dating, there is what we call a d m BC. Is that true? The middle man was Jesus Christ. I may not know what happened before he came, but the good news is that he came. He came, He came. Please listen to me. Your destiny depends on what you are hearing. Remember everything I taught you today. Satan is not looking for your money. He's not looking for your fruitfulness. He's not looking for your job, he's not looking for your health. He's looking for loyalty, transgenerational loyalty. And that the structure of his operation largely is deception. He manipulates strategies that fights the Word of God. The principal raw material for his fashioning his attack against. You is the word of God. It's amazing that is not only God and believers that use the word of God. Satan uses it too. It is his principal raw material army. You hear of young men going to go and do money ritual, you will. Never see Satan following them, yet he's the one moving them deception. Listen, and when they go and do the money ritual, you will see that there are physical evidences money comes, so they won't do it again because they don't know what else. Satan will never tell you the complete story, and he will never tell you the whole truth. He will doctor the truth to present it in a way that provides an advantage for him. When he the spirit of truth is come, he will guide you. Into all truth, all truth, Satan has deceived past us. Satan has deceived churches, for instance, the understanding and the theology that you should just concentrate on serving God in your spiritual life and don't worry whether you are doing well or not, whether your finances are doing well. It looks like a sincere. Message, but that is a destructive message many since people have received it, and today they cannot pay the schoolfies of their children. And today they're in trouble. And then for others who come and fall into this deception, everything is about prosperity and prosperity and money and making it and doing all of this, and they forget about strengthening believers to be strong. No knowledge of the truth, no evangelism, no nothing, and people become eternally minded. All they want is competition of clothes and class and all of that. That is not that kind of error. But when the spirit of truth comes, he will bring the whole truth and create a balanced, structured growth. Another kind of lie that Satan is so mighty you don't know what he can do. Be afraid and. Be watching, always be in a position of warfare, And by warfare they mean just be ready to fight that is not scriptural. It may be sincere, it may be well meaning by well meaning people, But believe. Me, from the authority of God's world, that is not the position of the believer. We have been given a position of victory, victory, victory in Christ. Then the ones who say ignore everything, don't worry about anything. Provide them you are happy, you are fine. And the devil likes such sermons, and he continues to use sotility. To wreck havoc over people. Satan will join the heads of a husband and wife and stand behind and watch them in ignorance, blaming one another for food, for car, for house rent. And it is none of those issues the advisory join the heads of people and go back and watch with joy. Now you are getting intelligence that everything that happens in your life, among the many factors you put together to interpret the happenings in your life, do not forget to tap into the wisdom of the spirit, be able to discern his deception. The way my husband has been behaving in the last two weeks, something is wrong. You don't just say I will show you that I'm a wife. You think you just married a foolish person. When you think like that, he has also deceived you to join your head together. Indeed, one person has to create the advantage in that equation. And in that case, let it be you, and you go and begin to pray. Now, I will teach you by next week when we're dealing with administering deliverance. Because most believers say pray, but most believers don't know what they're saying. This idea of praying does not just mean talk to God. God is not the only person you talk to in prayer. There are times you talk to the situation. There are times you talk to the devil. There are times that you talk to you engage, and only two remembrance the integrity of God. All of it is called prayer. So don't say I prayed. We need to vet what you did based on the situation you are trying to handle. Just because you were giving injection does not mean you were giving the right treatment. We have to look at what was wrong with you and who gave you the injection and what you were given. And we can't say, no, you have typhoon. This is not the treatment for typhoon. Are we together? So just because you feel the pain of injection, you can say I received the injection I should. Be well, that's what is frustrating many believers. Because they would tell you a post who I have prayed? You don't look nobody prays like me. I agree. Let's hear what you have been saying. Let's understand to who you have been talking first. Let me know what you want to achieve. You will find out that many believers have just been wasting there. When they say pray, they do mean talk, talk loud. Add it again to God. Round off you are prayed. You will never get victory that way. It takes intelligence to understand what to say. There were times Jesus spoke to the father, Father, I thank you because you hear me, And he turned and said open the tomb, Lazarus, come forth. Notice the protocol. When he was about to break bread, he gave thanks and said go, and said, is that how you multiply? He never said multiply this bread. He just said give, give thanks, go and multiply it. When he stood before demons, he did not talk to the father. He rebuked the spirits go. When he sent the disciples, he said, in my name, when you find these spirits, use my office. My name does not mean j e s u s. My name means the consciousness of my office. I have given you a position, use it when you see Satan. And they returned back with shock, and they said, even do you know the most outstanding miracle. Every miracle Jesus deed had been done in the Old Testament. The only miracle. That had not been done in the New Testament was a miracle of deliverance. Never had a man used authority and a name to remove any demon. You don't find that in the Old Testament. You find them playing strings and the demons living. Are we together now? But you do not find anybody using a name to remove any demon. It's not done any In fact, what they do is they will kill the person they stole. The person who is demon knives when he dies, they now frustrated demon. Because like you have learned, it takes a long time for demons to find bodies. They don't just find any body. They can't find any mind. But they don't just find any body bodies as cus. Bodies are scars. That's why a legion will live in one body, because bodies are scars. Are you ready to pray? I made up my mind that I will open up the truth to God's people. To really understand with balance and with understanding. Don't just say I'm born again and everything is over. It may not be very accurate. You need to be instructed and to have superior spiritual understanding. For now, you understand what deliverance is. That it has to do with establishing and manifesting your victory, not fighting for it. Yeah, you have one. So me I. Look did you have on handia? Did you have. So mea? You sing all the time? I never play or to you? Did you have to me? Two prayer points? Prayer point number one. I taught you the three levels of demonic influences. You are going to pray and immune yourself. By knowledge and declare that in the name of Jesus, the Son of the Living God, for you and for your loved ones, whether it is witchcraft through deception, whether it is manipulation and control of your mental faculties, whether it's possession of your unsaved loved ones, declaine the name of Jesus that you are free completely from this. Open your mouth and begin to pray. Open your mouth and begin to pray. Open your mouth and begin to pray. Open your mouth and begin to pray. Shot back up. Just got karakata and prayata a practus candy carus the attar in the name of Jesus. Go ahead and. Pray chaprasc dicatrus pacata, Allelujah, what's your praying? Second Corinthians of the ten, Second Corinthians of the ten, please give us verse five, Second Corinthians ten, and let's start from verse four, Second Corinthians ten four. For the weapons of our warfare are not canal, but mighty to God. To the pulling down of strong rules. You know what a stronghold is. A stronghold is a negative. Mindset that has been fortified by the presence of demon spirits to ensure that the victim remains in. That top pattern. They are caused strong rules. When a wrong mindset now has the fortification of demon spirits, it is that space that makes the individual the work of God. Of non effects. Casting down imagination from the world, imagery and every high thing that exerts itself. It tains the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity. Help me every thought. This is the realm of warfare. Your mind, even those sets are, knows that you have the victory. He knows that your mind is part of the participatory systems that will make victory manifests. So she will hide shut your thinking. Are you ready to pray? Low your hands on your head representing your mind, and I want you to begin to prophesy. I have a found mind in the name of Jesus, a mindset that is. What pays word compliance or pays word compliant. Someone is praying. Low your hands on your head, prothectically over your children. Someone is praying shake a te rekatile scatti, pray, take a reatashiyaba shop katia. Every wrong thinking, every wrong preaching, every wrong understanding. Calls for our team monich go so logical that. Is authority taglet to take advantage of me. In the name of cheevers, I cast down every imagination, prayts, paying fort with thinking patterns that came from culture, that comes from your sealue that came from your first reason, that turns from the port mentorship platform that has built an inaccurate understanding about God. Every high thing must come down, every strong le shalli broken. You are the things you are, You. Hold the power and you hi pays come down, and so shall you. Look. You are a takes, you hold a path, You. Must come down and try shall me. You are all you wrote, You wrote a path, and. I take myself down. Prayer point number two. This is the last ray point. Now please let me pray. For you and defish you don't miss next week sabvice. Next week's services are not a miracle service. I know we have a monthly miracle savice, but that is when I'm. Going to be ministering. I will be taking out time. We're going to be. Breaking yokes and courses and all kinds of the money things, and I will not only be praying for you, I will be teaching you that you will go back romany to be like wildfire, that all these nonsense that has strapped people down. He must give way once and for all. Allelujah. Now listen to me. You're going to engage the blood, just one last prayer. Can I tell you this? I told you when Satan is afflicting an individual on legal basis, you don't cast him. You engage the blood. I'll be teaching you more about the blood next week. But you see, the blood is the system that she tolls every legal operation of Satan, because the blood is payant to. Are we together Satan? When we some of you who are into the financial bunking and the rest they call banks systems of settlement? Is that true? If I buy something and I buy whatever it is, when you pay me, you have settled me. Is a system of appeas out. Transactions are simply systems of appeasos. That's what happens in the realm of the spirit. The blood of. Abel was crying because there was injustice. It was crying for a peas out. And every time Satan stands to accuse you before God, accuse your family before God, if the blood does not speak, he is right. So what you do in that state. Is to plead the blood. The moment you plead the blood, the scene of judgment changes. Is no longer you, it will be Visus standing there. I want you to understand the revelation behind the blod. It does not matter whether some of you here let out people. The moment you bring the blood, the accused no longer becomes the accused. The accused becomes Jesus. Only one question we asked of Satan, who. Seemed that Jesus was crucified, It was not him. If a sein less man can become guilty, then a guilty man can be declared righteous. Based on that, the charge of all the ages will say you are not guilty, once and for all. Are you ready to bleed the brod? Remember what I taught you, now that in pleating the blood, you no longer become the accused. Your family no longer becomes the accused. Jesus stands in your stead. The advocates. Now, I want you to plead the blood over your wife, your husband, Listen, your children, your business, your family. Mention them by name. If you can every legal access that is giving cretan access over my life, by the blood of Jesus, I declare that voice is Thailand with a. Voice, and praise with a voice, and pray. The arthocate turns in your spared. The advocate speaks in your spaed the advocate he does not fail the sorts of all the earth. If the similess one can become the guilty one, then the guilty one can be declared not guilty. Go ahead and letter blood swick even for the things of the Father, if for the streams of territory, even for the sins of nations. By the brood, we call for the test of Jesus over the matters of life and destiny, over the matters of utma and covenants, or other matters of degrees and agreement, lucking out every handwriting and every ordinance that's sport against us. The more they do is cross. Hallelujah, hallelujah. We shall deserved round saying the name of Jesus. I decree, and I declare that, by the blood of Jesus, the blood of the Eternal Covenant, every legal access that Satan has over my life, over my family, over my children, over my territory, by the blood of Jesus, I declare that access broken. Now. I decree, and I declare that I am. A pathector of the righteousness of Jesus Christ Plod Paul I perfect degree, as one anointed of God. Satan, take your hands of my life, of my job, of my destiny, of my health. I decree. It is a new season. I decree. Only the Lord of the Lord comes to pass in my life. Your strategies of deception about me will not walk again. I decree that I have spiritual enlightenment. I am a child of God. You have no power over me. The blood speaks against you. It speaks from me, but it speaks against you. In Jesus name, I pray give chase us a big hand trap and a short of praise. Allamua were up. You know, resist the. Devil and he will flee. You don't resist him by just saying God. You resist him by bringing for your strong reasons. Is that presents your cause? Bring forth your strong reason. The strongest reason is the blood. Are we together? Let me make the altar call. Thank you for your patience. Please, let's keep standing to all of those who will be coming.
