The Nature And Activity Of Demons
Casting out DEMONS-Every Christian’s Job!
“And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my
name shall they cast out demons.”(Mark 16:17)
The New Testament Greek word for “demon” is “daimonion”. This is the extended form of another Greek word “daimon”. In the Greek language these words were used to describe a special class of spirit beings to whom were attributed varying degrees of supernatural influence or power.
Are DEMONS for real? Yes, absolutely! Satan and his demons are skillful strategists, they are masters of every evil tactic imaginable. Desire for power and the unknown are the greatest destroyers of men’s souls. Satan is a real spirit being with mighty supernatural powers and intelligence. The only weapon that will win over the power of Satan and his demons is salvation through the blood atonement of the LORD JESUS CHRIST. In Ephesians 6:11-12, (The Holy Bible) Christians are instructed to put on the whole armour of God, in order that we may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Yes, the Bible tells us there are PRINCIPALITIES, POWERS, RULERS OF DARKNESS, and SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS (demon forces) arrayed in heavenly places against us. Listed below is a compilation of occult terms and activities, all of which are promoted by Satan and activated by demons.

As you can see, Satan has deceived many into joining his ranks. Although he promises them fame, fortune and power, what they don’t understand is that they have already lost the war, and in the end they will lose their souls in Hell for eternity. Why not join the ranks of God’s Mighty Army? Jesus is both Lord and Christ of the universe.
The Bible tells us: “Wherefore, God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in Heaven, and things in earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Phil. 2:9-11)
THE OCCULT: SATAN’S DEADLY SNARE!
Satan’s armies are well organized, with legions of evil spirits having POWER, RANK and AUTHORITY! Their number one goal is to destroy you! All spiritual power comes from one of only two sources: from God through the Lord Jesus Christ, or from Satan and his demons. If you have been involved in any kind of spiritual activity outside of Jesus Christ then you have been involved in the occult and should seriously consider the facts presented here. THE TRUTH: Only through Jesus Christ can you ever be totally free.

SALVATION:
Dear Jesus, I come to you with all the sins I’ve committed and I beg you to forgive me. I confess and repent of any and all participation in the black arts of Satan and the occult. Cleanse my body, soul, and spirit with your precious blood. I need your help and I ask you to come and live in my heart. I want to serve you, obey your commands and do what is right. I want to live for you everyday, please lead and guide me by your Spirit into righteousness. Thank you Jesus for hearing and answering my prayer. Amen.
LOOSING FROM CURSES, SPELLS, AND WITCHCRAFT POWER:
In the name of Jesus Christ I now rebuke, break and loose myself from any and all evil curses, charms, vexes, hexes, spells, jinxes, psychic powers and prayers, bewitchments, witchcraft, sorcery and mind control that have been placed upon or sent against me, or my family line, from any person(s), or from any occult or psychic source. I command the power of all connected spirits or demons to be broken over my life and to leave me now in the name of Jesus. Thank you Jesus for setting me free.
COME TO JESUS CHRIST THE DELIVERER:
I come to you, Lord Jesus, as my deliverer. You know all my problems, all the things that bind, that torment, defile and harass me. I now refuse to accept anything from Satan, and loose myself from every dark spirit, from every evil influence, from every satanic bondage, from every spirit in me that is not the Spirit of God. I command all such spirits (demons) to leave me now. I confess that my body is a temple for the Holy Spirit. I am redeemed, cleansed, sanctified, and justified by the blood of Jesus. Therefore Satan has no place in me and no power over me, through the blood of Jesus. Amen.
