Resisting Demons Using Biblical Ways
Resisting Demons Using The Bible.
First, instruct new believers to don the armor of God (Rom 13:14). This is about wearing the spiritual armor that God gave in Ephesians 6. We have to wear the full armor for us to be able to stand against the spiritual attacks of the enemy, and that we will be able to stand our ground.
Secondly, instruct your trainees to deal with demonic oppression the way Jesus and his Apostles did. The deal with the demonic oppression in the name of Jesus Christ. Sometimes in our areas, some of our trainees have an experience of occultism. Therefore, we have to be sure that our trainees are already free from the bondage of sin and that practice. We have to teach them to resist the devil (Gal 6:1)
Third, teach your trainees to pray fervently and persistently. This is for the deliverance against demon oppression. All spirits both demonic and godly, bow to only one name, the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. No matter how many they are (Mk. 5:1-20), they cannot overcome the power of that name. And prayer is one of the most powerful way to deal with it.
Your trainees also have to know that there are three types of demonic activity that we have to be aware of: 1) oppression 2) obsession 3) possession.
