Believers Are Promised Victory Over Satan and Every Demon Power.

  • God does his part.
  • He gives us the power to do our part.

Mark 16:17-18, “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 .They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover,”KJV

Believers are taught to engage aggressively in spiritual warfare.

(Eph 6:16-20), “And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.” KJV

We have been raised with Christ.

(Eph. 1:19-21). “And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to usward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: 22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23 Which is his body, the fullness of him that filleth all in all.” KJV

Be Healed If You Meet God’s Conditions

Lordship of Christ

“There shall no plague come nigh thy dwelling,” (Exod. 30:12).

God can and will protect us physically, as well as spiritually, under all circumstances.

Biblical healing does not pertain to:

  • New Age healing
  • Christian Science.
  • Natural or New Thought philosophy.
  • Spiritualism.
  • Therapies or medications.
  • Superstition.
  • Mental suggestion.
  • Psychology.
  • Witchcraft.

Supernatural healing of disease and infirmities without natural means by the spirit of God; the Christian ministry should duplicate Jesus Christ’s work!

“And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people,” (Matt. 4:23).

Preach the gospel to the poor!

  • “Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him, ” (Jam. 2:5).
  • To heal the brokenhearted!
  • “The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound,” (Isa. 61:1).
  • “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, me to heal the deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,” (Lk. 4:18).

What Causes Blessings or Curses

Deliverance from Sin

Play

Disobedience or obedience to God’s law.

“And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God,” (Deut 28:1-2).

  • Blessing or curses in a Person’s life.
  • God said to him in Genesis.

“That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the ate of his enemies; And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice,” (Gen. 22:17-18).

The cause for Abraham’s blessing was that he heard and obeyed the voice of God.

  • The basic cause for curses is stated in (Deut. 28:15). “But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day, that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee. . . .”

    Therefore, the root cause of all curses is not hearing and not obeying God’s Word.

    • Notice that both curses and blessings “overtake” us.
    • We do not really have to chase them.
    • We must fulfill the conditions, either positive or negative.
    • If we do the positive requirement: The blessings overtake us.

Miracles in the Old Testament

Play

If God gave this gift to Old Testament and New Testament Saints, why would he take this gift from today’s church?

(Acts 10:34), “Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons.” The devil is still around today.

Old Testament Miracles

  • David said in (Psa. 103:3), “Bless the Lord . . . and forget not all His Benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases.”
