Demonization

The David Alliance

Garth Heckman TDAgiantSlayer@gmail.com  The David Alliance   Demon possessed or demonized?  If you are a non Christian you can be demon possessed. If you are a Christian you can be demonized… both are dangerous and horrible to be under.  But for today lets talk about being a Christian who is demonized? What does that mean? You have demonic spirits attached to your mindset, habits, personality, thoughts and even your body. They can manifest in addictions, sickness, pet sins, demonic dreams… and that is just touching the surface.    We have a deliverance ministry here at our church and what I have seen and now understand makes me completely convinced that every Christian should go through a deliverance process… connect with me if you want more information.     * Unconfessed and Unrepented Sin: Many Christian traditions teach that sin creates a barrier between God and humanity. Persistent, unconfessed, and unrepented sin can be seen as providing an "opening" or foothold for negative spiritual influences. This isn't necessarily seen as demonic possession in all cases, but rather as creating vulnerability to temptation, oppression, or spiritual attacks. Examples might include ongoing patterns of lying, stealing, bitterness, unforgiveness, or sexual immorality.    * Involvement in Occult Practices: Practices explicitly condemned in the Bible, such as divination, witchcraft, seeking guidance from mediums, astrology, and other forms of occult engagement, are often seen as directly inviting demonic influence. But did you know music, movies, video, porn are all a part of this occult practice. The rationale is that these practices bypass God and seek power, fulfillment or knowledge from sources considered to be opposed to Him.    * Holding onto Strongholds of Negative Beliefs and Emotions: Deep-seated patterns of negative thinking, such as persistent bitterness, resentment, fear, or unbelief, can create "strongholds" in the mind. Some interpretations suggest that these strongholds can become entry points for negative spiritual influences that align with those destructive thought patterns and emotions.   Look we can get sick physically - yes Jesus bore stripes on his back for our healing, but we still live in a fallen sin filled world with sickness, disease, germs etc… and it can make us sick. In the same way we live in a world where we can pick up strongholds that make us sick…. Bitterness is a big one but not the only one. You hang on to this and it will invite demonic strongholds into your life.     * Exposure to Demonic Influence Through Others or Environments:  You gotta be prayed up when you go to a secular concert, go to an environment where there is a heavy LGBTQ presence, or to a cultic religion center… now if it is your practice to be around such people and places on a regular basis check to see if this is Gods will.  **You may say well God hung with sinners…yes he did, with 12 other believers. There is strength in numbers.       * Spiritual Neglect and Lack of Spiritual Armor: A lack of consistent engagement in spiritual disciplines such as prayer, Bible study, fellowship with other believers, and living according to Christian principles is sometimes seen as weakening one's spiritual defenses. This neglect can leave a person more susceptible to temptation and negative spiritual influences, not necessarily as a direct invitation but as a lack of protection… but over time it can manifest in demonization.    Now listen I know people will think that I have the opinion that I blame everything on demons… no, not quite… but more than ever I see the demonic playing out itself in people who claim to be followers of Christ. And as someone who has been a follower of Christ for more than 50 years and still have demonic influences in my life… im telling you you need to be careful and also you need to check out some spiritual deliverance ministries.

Drawing inspiration from biblical stories, particularly that of Paul in prison, Pastor Bob illustrates that joy can be found even in difficult circumstances. The notion of spiritual warfare and the mental strongholds that can impede believers' progress are central themes, along with the idea that true freedom comes from understanding one's identity in Christ. Pastor Bob encourages us to take authority over negative thoughts and beliefs, using the truth of the gospel to combat lies.

In the seventh episode of "Christian Meditation," Brother Duane teaches how our thoughts become strongholds in a spiritual battle. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 discusses pulling down strongholds and taking every thought captive to Christ, revealing the spiritual warfare involved in our thinking patterns. Many believers struggle with strongholds. A stronghold starts with a thought. Some thoughts are from us, some are from our past, and some are opinions and ideologies of the world. Strongholds are not demons but false beliefs and thought patterns that become a fortress that Satan uses to enslave us. Satan hides in our mental strongholds, but the process of meditation renews our minds and pulls down spiritual strongholds.

HOW TO BREAK SATAN'S STRONGHOLDS IN YOUR LIFE (EPHESIANS 4:22-31) In last week's message, we talked about what a difference God makes in the life of a true follower of Christ.  We contrasted a life without God, to a life full of God's grace and power.  Yet, there are many believers who might say that they don't feel all that different, that God is not working fully in their lives.  The Bible tells us that the reason for this is that we allow Satan to have strongholds in our lives.  If we want to experience the full measure of God's grace and power in our lives, then we must remove the strongholds in our lives that Satan has dug in, and fortified, and is using to defeat us.   It is a tragic fact that there are many believers who get strongholds in their lives.  And I believe that there are many people, who are listening to me today, who have in their heart, and in their mind, and in their life, a satanic stronghold.  The tragedy of this is that not only is it harming them and wrecking their spiritual life, but they also, themselves, are contaminating the life of their family and the life of their church, because the devil has found an unclean place in that person, and the devil has made a campground, a foul nest, a beachhead, a citadel, a stronghold, there. And he uses that stronghold to war against God and against the work of God. You are never going to cease grieving the Holy Spirit, you are never going to expunge Satan and get him out of your life, until you take these three steps: repentance, resistance, and renewal. Click on the play button to hear a message on what these three steps are, and how to apply them to your life.  How you shouldn't try to repent until you are honest and face your sin. Don't try to resist until you've repented. And don't try to be filled until you resist—until you choose against Satan and yield to God's blessed Holy Spirit. This is a live recording of The Master's Class Bible Study at LifeChange Church Wichita, KS. Amen.

Understand the Bible?  Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D.

Any un-surrendered part of our heart or mind is susceptible to what the Bible calls “strongholds.”  These are places of refuge where the devil or his minions go to hide within the believer.  We may find them in our thoughts, our thought processes, within the church, in false teachings, in false interpretation of Scripture...  Anything can become a stronghold, and anyone who is walking in sincerity, earnestly wanting to move forward in the Lord, needs to prayerfully consider this question: what strongholds hinder you?

SummaryIn this engaging conversation, Danielle Strickland and James Scholl discuss with Jared Brock the themes of evil, the nature of Satan, and the insights from his book 'A Devil Named Lucifer'. They explore the misconceptions surrounding the devil, the importance of human agency, and the dynamics of spiritual warfare. The discussion also touches on the relevance of biblical teachings in understanding modern issues of morality and choice. In this conversation, the speakers explore the complex themes of freedom, autonomy, and the influence of the devil in contemporary society. They discuss the paradox of freedom as seen through the lens of Jesus' sacrifice, the misconceptions surrounding demonic influence, and the need for discernment in understanding mental illness versus spiritual oppression. The conversation also delves into the economic injustices that reflect satanic principles, the false gods of modern society, and the importance of recognizing God's sovereignty over evil. Ultimately, they emphasize the Christian mission of liberation and the necessity of right-sizing both God and the devil in our understanding of faith and life.TakeawaysThe devil is not an equal opponent to God.Satan's role is often misunderstood in modern Christianity.Human agency plays a crucial role in resisting evil.The concept of possession is more about individuals holding onto demons.Footholds and strongholds can be identified in our lives.Freedom is about choosing the virtuous, not autonomy.The devil's influence is often through lies and deception.Understanding the historical context of evil can reshape our views.Revelation reflects cycles of rebellion and salvation throughout history.The portrayal of Satan in popular culture is often inaccurate.
