Press On in our Saviour's Name: Deliverance

With Passover coming upon us, it is time to begin inspecting our lives, a time. to approach our Messiah, YESHU'AH, with a clean heart. It is a time to repent and turn away from our sins. Even though we may have turned away from our sins, we may feel a strong temptation to return to our past. We may have repented of our sin, but still feel we are being tormented by evil spirits we had invited into our lives by not turning from our sins, This has been on my heart recently, so I have been studying deliverance, seeking to be delivered from my past addiction.

First, let us look at the definition of deliverance, first using the dictionary and secondly using a bible concordance.

We must acknowledge that there is a clash between two kingdoms.

haSatan and YAHWEH
Darkness and light.

We must recognize their is still an area of our life that has not been submitted completely to YAHWEH..

This could include generational curses from our ancestors.

Addictions, sexual immorality, suicide, abuse, anger, etc.

We need to identify the strongman, the dominant evil spirit, whom other demons could be working under his authority.

For example, a stronghold demon could be pornography, with lesser demons being masturbation, selfishness, and liar spirits.

All evil spirits are denounced and cast in the name of YESHU'AH. Command the evil spirit to go to the pit set aside for him by YAHWEH,

Matthew 18:32 Then his adonai, after that he had called him, said unto him, O you wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you desired me: (33) Should not you also have had compassion on your fellow servant, even as I had pity on you? (34) And his adonai was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. (35) So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not everyone his brother their transgressions.
