Notes on Spiritual Warfare

My notes from the sermon "Spiritual Warfare on Earth" by Derek Prince

The List of Weak Points

  1. Pre-natal
  2. Pressures in early childhood (e.g. strife torn homes)
  3. emotional shocks 
  4. Sinful habits (e.g. masturbation)
  5. Occult activities (e.g fortune telling)
  6. Idle words (I did not mean it, but I said: I wish I were not born)

The list of Characteristic Activities:
  1. Demons enticing us to do evil
  2. Demons harass (e.g.  moment of weakness let the Spirit of Anger to come into a husband)
  3. Demons defile and are called unclean (fill your mind with dirty and unclean thoughts)
  4. Demons torture (e.g. athritus)
  5. Demons compel and enslave, creating addiction. Any addiction is 99% demonic
  6. Witchcraft (including 1) self-indulgence, rebellion)   I have been a slave to self-indulgence, slave to stomachs
  7. Demons make weak or sick: e.g. migrain

Steps to Receiving Deliverance:
  1. Affirm faith in Christ : Christ is the High Christ of our confession
  2. Humble ourselves: humble yourself under the mighty hand of God. Humility is a decision. Let dignity go, get deliverance. One woman so broken hearted => so in love with Christ. She is Mary Magdalen
  3. Confess our sins: bring something dark out in the light in the open with all its embarassment. "Prov: he who confess his sin and forsake it will receive mercy"
  4. Forgive others who sinned against you. Forgiveness is a decision, not a feeling
  5. Break with the occult and all the false religion including objects related to occult or superstition
  6. Prepare to be released from all curses in your life, and enter into the blessings of Abraham, because on the Cross Jesus has been made a curse
  7. Expel demons: breath it out, blew out 4 times

List of my things to deliver from:
  1. Fear of passing on depressions from my dad to my children
  2. Self-indulgence

"You shall Expel Demons"
