Christians don’t deal with demons?
Jesus did.
76 times.
And He told believers to do the same.
“In My name they will cast out demons.” Mark 16:17
Not pastors only.
Not special ministers.
Those who believe.
Here are 4 truths most churches ignore:
🛡️ You have authority
If you live under the Lordship of Jesus, you carry His authority.
Authority flows from being under authority.
No badge. No backing.
Under Christ. Backed by Christ.
🔥 You need the Holy Spirit’s power
Jesus said He cast out demons by the Spirit of God.
Not by ritual.
Not by counseling.
Not by debate.
Power comes from walking with the Holy Spirit daily.
✝️ The name of Jesus is the weapon
Demons respond to a Person.
Not a formula.
When you say “In Jesus’ name,” you represent Him.
It is not volume.
It is authority.
🗣️ Demons must be cast out
Jesus did not counsel them out.
He commanded them out.
Matthew. Mark. Luke. Acts.
The pattern is clear.
Here is what many miss:
Demons gain access through invitation.
• Occult practices
• Witchcraft games
• Spiritism and séances
• Ongoing sin
• Unforgiveness
• Generational patterns of rebellion
The Bible says the devil sets snares.
A snare looks harmless.
Then it enslaves.
Have you noticed patterns in families?
• Addiction repeating
• Rage repeating
• Su***de repeating
• Sexual bo***ge repeating
• Fear controlling generations
Scripture calls this captivity.
Psychiatry deals with the mind.
Philosophy deals with ideas.
Only Jesus deals with spirits.
The early church cast demons out.
Modern churches debate if they exist.
Which sounds closer to the New Testament?
You do not need fear.
The Bible says:
Resist the devil and he will flee.
Greater is He who is in you.
Ask yourself:
Are you fighting spiritual battles with human tools?
Are you tolerating what Jesus commanded you to confront?
You were not saved to sit silent.
You were commissioned.
Authority.
Power.
The name of Jesus.
Use them.
