Christian Spiritual Authority in the Heavenly Realms - Part III

John Paul Jackson wrote in his book, Needless Casualties of War, that engaging spirits in the heavenly places was like throwing hatchets at the moon. Do intercessors overstep their bounds and battle in places they don't belong?

Several years ago, I used to give spiritual warfare talks at a local bay area church conference. At the end of my talk, a local Asian pastor of a home church pushed his intercessor up through the attendees at the conference and begged me to help him. His intercessor manifested spirits immediately and this was a situation where I was warned by the PhD running the event that I was only allowed to give the rated G Disney version of deliverance ministry in my presentation. Well, now there was a manifestation and there was no putting the genie back in the bottle, so to speak. My wife and I discerned the intercessor went after a regional spirit. The intercessor confirmed she did, and was left with a nasty oppression demon. We did prayers of liberation and the woman was set free. The event was an interesting public example of over stepping ones bounds in the spirit realm and how the higher ranking evil spirits can respond in warfare, and dispatch a low-level demon to oppress and afflict the soul..

Part III in our discussion on Christian Authority and Dominion in spiritual warfare. In this installment, I provide the framework on prayer posture and authority in heavenly realms. According to scripture the heavens belong to Jesus. I call out dark angelic choirs as defined in Ephesians 6:12. In this talk I also discuss basic forms of petitioning prayer as it is presented in scripture. Do Christians have spiritual authority in the heavens? Can you bind principalities using your spiritual authority? How do you know if an attack is coming from the heavenly places? We'll take a look at what scripture tells about battles in the heavens.

Christian Spiritual Authority Over Low-Level Demonic Spirits - Part II

Can the average lay Christian expel a demon? Where are instructions found in the Bible to cast out evil spirits? Are there limitations to our spiritual authority with demonic spirits? Do you have to be a Christian to cast out spirits?

M16 Ministries was founded in 2009 as 501c3. During this time God has brought numerous and crazy battles to the ministry door step. From the get go, God hurled me into a Mark 9:29 type of ministry. As a street minister working with the drug addicts, homeless, and prostitutes,on the streets of San Francisco with Night Strike ministry, I have seen a lot of the occult and the supernatural. Some stuff so freaky, I literally had some street ministers never return to Night Strike. 

During this time I have met a lot of severely demonic afflicted souls, fractured souls, and survivors of the occult. In my years, I moved away from calling myself a deliverance minister and am now simply a minister of God. Why? For one, it's what we're supposed to do, according to Luke 10 (see the training). Second, in my 10 years I have watched deliverance ministry turn into a Vegas side show run by prideful ministers. This isn't the deliverance ministry Jesus gave us, its a circus version that proliferates bad teaching. Some deliverance ministries have even become doctrinal, which in itself again is something very bad. Many ministries are not even grounded Biblically anymore in their teachings or practices. For instance, where in the Bible does it instruct people to cough out a demon? When I work with individuals who have issues other than demons (i.e. behavioral), they insist their issue is demonic and proceed to do the cough in front of me to prove their issue is demonic. These are poor souls who have been conditioned by Vegas deliverance ministries. Let's take a look at the Biblical approach to casting out demons. In Part II, or this 3 part teaching, I go through the scripture to demonstrate how Jesus instructed us to expel low-level demons - deliverance ministry!
