Tales of Glory - Episode 42 - Heavenly Realms-A Field Guide to Advanced Spiritual Warfare - Chapter 13

 

Tales of Glory - Episode 42 - Spiritual Warfare and the Heavenly Realms. We're in Chapter 13 of A Field Guide to Advanced Spiritual Warfare. Battling in the spiritual realms is the most ambiguous topic in Christian ministry and spiritual warfare media. For example, what is the difference between a low-level demon and a satanic angel? Biblically, what is an angel? How come low-level demons can't enter heaven, but satanic angels can? What is an unclean spirit? Has the modern western church lost the actual context of the spirit realm that Paul and the Apostles clearly understood? We examine these questions and many more as they pertain to spiritual warfare. Gain an understanding as to why we can't bind angelic beings.

Learn how and why intercessors dangerously overstep their bounds in the heavenly realms. Do we have the spiritual authority to take on regional spirits, authorities, and principalities? What are regional spirits and principalities, and what was the Apostle Paul referring to in Ephesians 6:12? In this episode of Tales of Glory, we cover many good theological topics on spiritual warfare in the heavenly realms. So go pull up your easy chair to the fireplace, kick back and listen to another powerful equipping episode of Tales of Glory!

Please be patient. The video was a little off in this episode. I was setting up an iMac podcasting station on an old 2019 iMac. I didn't have all my settings right in OBS. So the video framing in the video is off-center and to the upper left corner. I will get that fixed by Episode 43!

 Show Notes

 Genesis 11:7-8  God dispersed the nations at the Tower of Babel.

Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another's speech.” So the Lord dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city.

 

Deuteronomy 32:8 God divided the nations amongst the sons of God (regional spirits)

When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance,
    when he divided mankind,
he fixed the borders of the peoples
    according to the number of the sons of God.

 

Exodus 12:12 God brought judgment to the gods of Egypt (wicked ruling spirits)

 12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord.

 

 Daniel 10:13 the Prince of Persia a regional spirit over Persia

13 The prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days, but Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I was left there with the kings of Persia,

 

Ephesians 6:12 the Apostle Paul is pointing back to the spirits in Deuteronomy 32:8

12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

 

 Hebrews 2:9 we were created lesser than angels

But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.

 

 The biblical evidence of the ruling spirits in the Old Testament is covered in my book, Cosmology and Demonology in Genesis 1-11, available for purchase on the right panel of this blog site.

Tales of Glory - Episode 41 - Demonic Manifestations - A Field Guide to Advanced Spiritual Warfare - Chapter 12

 


Tales of Glory - Episode 41 - Dealing with Demonic Manifestations.

We dive back into my book, A Field Guide to Advanced Spiritual Warfare. How do Christian ministers deal with demonic manifestations? What are the common forms of manifestations, and do we handle them? In dealing with spiritual warfare, you need to understand spiritual discernment. What is spiritual discernment, and do I need an anointing to sense spirits? Episode 41 covers lots of ground on this controversial aspect of ministry.

What do you need to know about distinguishing demons from fractured human parts? This episode discusses the criteria for determining manifestations from triggered dissociated parts.

We also discuss how to handle various types of demonic manifestations and what to do in ministry should you encounter these.

God doesn't want you to consult psychics! (Regarding my comments on a famous Catholic psychic in podcast).
 
13 So Saul died for his breach of faith. He broke faith with the Lord in that he did not keep the command of the Lord, and also consulted a medium, seeking guidance.
 

31 “Do not turn to mediums or necromancers; do not seek them out, and so make yourselves unclean by them: I am the Lord your God.

Note:

All the years I have been doing this ministry I have NEVER had to hold a person down to the ground or constrain them. When I talk about binding spirits, I bind them with prayer. This means the spirits are ordered not to move in the authority of Jesus Christ. In light of some horrible exorcisms I have read about in the news lately. There was a horrible fatality that happened near me last month in San Jose, Ca. A child died from a botched exorcism where the child was constrained and died. All spirits respond to the authority of Jesus Christ.  You don't constrain people!


I also made comments about deliverance involving children in a previous Tales of Glory, episode 35, Fireside Chat, "Comments on Children's Deliverance Sessions".
