This Matters to Everyone
The deliverance that happened to each one of us, and most importantly the miracle of the new birth, is what we want to see happening to everyone. There is a great revolt within us that always leads us to ask the Holy Spirit, “What must we do so that this will happen?”
We have seen people in a process of deliverance who, despite knowing the Bible really well, have not yet been born of God. Some of them have pleasant moments of peace while in the church, but this is short-lived because as soon as they go outside they are faced with the sad reality of their lives.
Could the Lord of heaven and earth be Lord to those who believe in Him only while they are inside the church building, in a way that when they are in the church it’s as if they were in heaven, but when they are outside it ‘s as if they were in hell?
If a person feels good when they are in church, but when they leave they have the same symptoms as when they had their backs turned to God – even if they are good-natured and charitable – they haven’t been truly delivered. There is a demon hiding there!
How can you be free from this torment and take possession of a life with quality?
The Lord Jesus said, “No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house” (Mark 3:27).
This strong man is the devil, the house is the person’s body – which he uses for his dwelling – and the goods is the life that he’s got in his grip.
How can I go into the house of the strong man, tie him up and remove the life from his grip if I am not revolted? It’s impossible! This is why many people are still not delivered. Do you know what is lacking? Revolt. Indignation. Everyone who is “clothed” with this revolt becomes the strongest man.
If you say that the Lord Jesus is your Lord, until when will you tolerate the devil living in your body and owning your life?
Don’t think for a moment that after you’ve been delivered and born of God, the blessings of God will come to you automatically. A thousand times no! Never forget: even with God, the demons that were once inside of you are still between you and your blessings.
If you were able to overcome only with faith and revolt, imagine now with the Holy Spirit. You have faith, the Word of God, and His Spirit.
Revolt against hell and take possession of the abundant life the Lord Jesus brought for us.
