CASTING OUT DEMONS

” Yet Michael the arch angel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.” (Jude 1:9). Always cast out bad spirits in the Name Of Jesus Christ! The devil is afraid of the name of JESUS. ” he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. “( Matthew 10: 1b). This verse also shows us how sometimes unclean spirits can cause sickness and diseases. You can rebuke the devil and demons in the name of Jesus, but you had better have the faith to do it.“Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, and they fled out of that house naked and wounded.” (Acts 19: 13-16).This is what happened when seven people tried rebuking out a bad spirit but obviously didn’t have the faith to do it. Jesus said, “When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out: and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.” (Matthew 12:43-45a). These verses show us how a person who has a bad spirit rebuked out of them can actually become worse by not being strong enough spiritually to resist any future attacks from the demons, or they really didn”t want to be delivered from the bad spirits. You can rebuke bad spirits out of people all day if you want, but as soon as you  are gone they will come back in their host seven times worse if the people don’t want to be delivered..So make sure you let them know what can happen if they don’t get strong in the LORD and his WORD and really want in their heart to be set free. One day Jesus cast out many demons out of two people, and commanded them to go into a herd of swine which ran off a cliff and drowned in the sea. “And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way. And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time? And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding. So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine. And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.”(Matthew 8: 28- 32).When Jesus cast out evil spirits, he commanded them to go some place so they wouldn’t just temporarily leave and then come back.We need to do the same. By faith command them to leave, and by faith command them to go some place like the bottom of the sea, in the name of Jesus Christ!

Say this prayer to be saved: Jesus, I want to know you, and to live forever in Heaven, I know I have made mistakes and done bad things- and I am sorry. Please forgive me. I know I don’t deserve it, but I accept your love and I accept you as my Saviour. I believe you died on the cross for my sins ,and rose from the dead. Please come into my heart and life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and give me your peace. Amen.
