An excerpt from our upcoming book, "Divine Healing for the Spirit, Soul & Body", which will be released in the next week!
Years ago, God revealed that having demons manifest could actually work against what we were trying to accomplish. One woman manifested the same way every time we prayed. It wasn’t that she was doing it on purpose, but it was because she had an ungodly belief that she needed to manifest to get free. By addressing this lie, she was enabled to become free of it. She suddenly stopped the demonic manifesting she had been doing in each of our appointments. Later, God took this revelation one step further. I had just finished a ministry session in which the lady was crawling across the floor like a snake. To me, it was exciting. My adrenaline was flowing. I was so excited at seeing her deliverance. As I was driving home, the Holy Spirit brought the scripture Luke 10:20 to my mind. It says, “Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are recorded in heaven.” This thought bothered me because I realized I was rejoicing in that very thing. I asked the Lord to help me with this. Within the next few weeks, the Holy Spirit showed me how the enemy enjoys manifesting to show his power, and how it also strengthens the enemy’s position. I stopped allowing it. Why give demons the opportunity to show off? Now they don’t even try. I started by placing them before the throne of the True Lord Jesus Christ and do not allow them to do or say anything (unless Jesus tells them to). Now I don’t even have to do that. I think our faith is a tangible presence in the spirit realm. The enemy knows by seeing my faith in this area that he is not allowed to manifest. Without them manifesting, there is also no temptation to rejoice. After I get rid of the person’s agreements with the enemy, with the demons still before the throne, I ask the Lord to get rid of them, to cast them out, to execute judgment, and they go.
