- 2:02Hopping around looking for the next most anointed person to cast out something
- 2:07that doesn't exist because you didn't have the self-discipline to crucify your flesh.
- 2:12That is not the Christian experience.
- 2:16When you train people that that is what they should be hungry for,
- 2:21you are hijacking an appetite that causes people to crave unhealthy things.
- 2:30Hello my name is adam ferrari i look forward to you joining us our next webinar
- 2:36where you can drill deeper into our bonds skip okay,
- 2:42and by the way sorry you guys if any pastor ever gets on this stage,
- 2:46and starts telling this congregation that you got to start calling them mama or daddy,
- 2:52dropping off gifts at their feet set the whole building on fire while they're
- 2:55in it and run out of here to the next closest Bible preaching authoritative church.
- 3:02We don't need that nonsense in the charismatic movement.
- 3:05I'm not looking for fruits, nuts, and flakes. I'm looking for.
- 3:17Now, by the way, if you're here today, you might be hearing this sermon and go,
- 3:23I don't really know what to believe about deliverance. If you're a born again
- 3:26Christian in the room today, you have already experienced deliverance in your
- 3:33life, whether you believe it or not.
- 3:34I'll prove it to you from Colossians one.
- 3:38This is Paul speaking to the church in Colossae. He says this,
- 3:43he has delivered us from the power of God.
- 3:48Not, he is trying to deliver us. Be sure to comment and share.
- 3:52Not, it's taken longer than it normally takes. Hey, Marissa,
- 3:55just in time. Processing, downloading. Just in time for the crazy. Try again.
- 4:00There'll be another conference around the Sea of Galilee. Just show up there.
- 4:05No, no. Paul tells the church, if you're a believer, Christ has delivered us
- 4:12from the power of darkness.
- 4:13And not only that, he has conveyed us into the kingdom.
- 4:18So I'm teaching today on the finished work of the cross. It's really important
- 4:22as a Christian that you get that in your heart. And just what he said,
- 4:24he said, Christ has, past tense, redeemed us.
- 4:28So many people think they still need to get set free.
- 4:31They need to get, but the reality is if you just know who you are in Christ,
- 4:34that's why Paul prayed, beloved, I wish above all things you would be in health
- 4:37and prosper, even as your soul prospers.
- 4:39Cause he knows like, as you fix yourself on the inside, everything else follows.
- 4:43It's fascinating. So of the son of his love in whom we have redemption through
- 4:48his blood, which is the forgiveness of our sins.
- 4:51By the way, it's Russell Johnson from pursuit Northwest. I should have,
- 4:55if you're a born again, Christian in this room today, or watching by virtue of live stream,
- 5:01what you need most is the ongoing empowering grace of the Holy Spirit,
- 5:06to walk in the freedom that Christ has purchased on your behalf,
- 5:11not because Satan owns you, but because the Spirit empowers you to live out
- 5:17the victory that Jesus has already won.
- 5:21How about Galatians 5?
- 5:23Stand fast, therefore, in the liberty by which Christ has made us free,
- 5:27and do not be entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
- 5:30How about Romans 6? Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body,
- 5:34that you should obey it in its lusts.
- 5:37For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under the law, you are under grace.
- 5:44How about Romans 8? If by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
- 5:53See part of the problem that we have in the church today is that people are
- 5:57using the wrong terms to describe their spiritual experiences and language matters.
- 6:06Let me be clear with you this morning. The New Testament does not give one solitary
- 6:13example of a spirit-filled believer.
- 6:17So the reason I'm teaching you this is because if you've ever felt like you
- 6:22need to get free or something in your life, the minute you realize that Jesus
- 6:26paid it all, it really helps you.
- 6:28It helps you to have victory over depression, over anxiety, over poverty,
- 6:32over all the things. And we're gonna talk about that in just a minute.
- 6:35Ever being inhabited? And you can tell by the crazies already on YouTube going
- 6:40nuts, Satan doesn't want you to hear this mess. Like the devil does not want
- 6:43you to know that Jesus paid for everything for you.
- 6:46He doesn't. Owned or possessed by a demon. Not one.
- 6:50In fact, Jesus explicitly says the opposite in Matthew 12.
- 6:56Jesus says a house divided against itself cannot stand.
- 7:02If you are filled with the Holy Spirit, you cannot simultaneously be filled
- 7:08with any other type of spirit.
- 7:10Because when the Holy Spirit moves into your life, he's not occupying a room in your house.
- 7:16He's taking over the entire thing.
- 7:19A Christian cannot be possessed.
- 7:37Although a Christian cannot be possessed, a Christian can be oppressed by a demonic force.
- 7:47Paul tells the church in Thessalonica, I wanted to come visit you,
- 7:51but Satan was hindering us.
- 7:54Jesus warns the church in Smyrna, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison.
- 7:59Paul tells believers in Ephesus, don't give the devil a foothold.
- 8:04In Luke 13, Jesus binds the spirit of infirmity that had crippled a woman in
- 8:11the synagogue for 18 years.
- 8:21Oh, persecution can be a form of oppression, heaviness and fear can be a form
- 8:27of oppression, depression and anxiety can be a form of oppression,
- 8:32sickness and poverty can be a form of oppression.
- 8:36No, the cross doesn't make Satan non-existent, it makes his defeat decisive.
- 8:45He can still try and attack and try and tempt and try and accuse and try and
- 8:51oppose God's people, but he no longer has the authority to hold them under the power of sin,
- 8:58death, or condemnation.
- 9:01So we're getting into your head today that there's a finished work on the cross.
- 9:05That every sickness, every temptation, every addiction, bad habit,
- 9:09emotional wound, or family problem is caused by a demon.
- 9:12Sometimes Satan is involved. Sometimes it's the world. Sometimes it's the flesh.
- 9:16Sometimes you simply made a bad decision.
- 9:21But here's the good news. Believers are given a key in scripture on how they
- 9:26can defeat the devil every time.
- 9:28Okay. I don't have a book. I'm holding this down for you right here because
- 9:32this is the key to everybody's life.
- 9:34You know, you might think that it's just your personality or just people around
- 9:38you that's messing with you.
- 9:39But the devil, you know, he makes you feel sorry for yourself.
- 9:42He makes you feel like God isn't on your side.
- 9:44He brings you depression. He brings you anxiety. He brings you hopelessness.
- 9:48But God loves you so much.
- 9:49And Jesus finished it at the cross. Now, sometimes you might think,
- 9:53OK, well, if he finished it, why do I still feel this pain in my side?
- 9:56Well, because you got to resist the devil. Well, if he finished it,
- 9:59how come I'm still struggling? Because you have to resist the devil.
- 10:02And he tells you right here how you resist the devil. And I'm going to get right
- 10:05into the finished work of the across in just a minute. I'll tell you in the
- 10:08lobby, I don't have a 17 course session that you've got to sign up for and pay to be a part of.
- 10:15I'm giving you the key for free this morning. It's pretty simple,
- 10:19it's definitively short, and it works 100% of the time, every time.
- 10:26James 4 and 7. Therefore, submit to God, resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
- 10:35If the devil isn't running, it's because you're not resisting.
- 10:40If the devil is... Can I just say thank you, all of you that are commenting?
- 10:44Please keep commenting, especially on Facebook. It really helps push it out.
- 10:48It's such a simple thing you can do for me when you're watching.
- 10:50I don't even care if you like hi-fi. You know, say some words.
- 10:54Eh, low battery. I got to go get a battery for my thing.
- 10:58Say some words. Say hi to everybody, you know, on Facebook. Just for now,
- 11:02just help me with the algorithm. Just commenting really helps. It's not running.
- 11:05It is because you are not resisting.
- 11:09There's only one time in all of scripture where the Bible tells us to run away
- 11:13from something that's in the enemy's camp. And I'll let you watch this for one second.
- 11:16And that's as it pertains to lust or sexual temptation.
- 11:18The Bible says flee sexual immorality. You see this in the life of Joseph.
- 11:23Joseph, when Potiphar's wife is trying to tempt him to sleep with her while
- 11:27Potiphar is gone, Joseph doesn't stand there in the living room and debate with her.
- 11:32He doesn't open up a book to research the seven ways that a person can overcome the temptation of lust.
- 11:37He says, if you want to take my coat, that's fine, but I'm running out of this house.
- 11:44That is the prescribed way that
- 11:46Scripture gives when facing a temptation related to sexual immorality.
- 11:50Every other thing that the devil authors from his camp.
- 11:55The Bible says if you'll submit to God and you'll resist the devil,
- 11:59the net result of those two activities will naturally produce that outcome.
- 12:03The devil will run from you.
- 12:08How do you resist the devil? You stand on the promises of God.
- 12:12How do you resist the devil? You got enough word in your heart that it begins
- 12:16to come out of your mouth. How do you resist the devil?
- 12:18You rehearse the truth of God in your mind and in your heart until you have
- 12:23settled the debate in your mind. If God's for me, who can be against me?
- 12:27If God said it, he's going to do it and that's good enough for me.
- 12:30He began my story, he's going to finish my story, and he's not done yet.
- 12:33You resist the devil the same way that Jesus resisted the devil in the wilderness.
- 12:38It is written, I'm not bound to you.
- 12:40I'm not living in fear. Worship belongs to the Lord. You can throw every temptation
- 12:45you've got in my direction as long as it's not sexual immorality.
- 12:49I'm resisting you and you're running away from me.
- 12:58Across the canopy of the New Testament, there are only 15 identifiable and unique
- 13:05deliverance events in the entirety of the new covenant.
- 13:12Only one out of the 15, the woman with the spirit of infirmity in Luke 13,
- 13:17is the identity. So we're talking about the finished work of the cross. You understand that?
- 13:23And well, that's what I'm talking about. And the reason why this is important
- 13:27is because what he's saying is across the Bible, there's,
- 13:32only one incident of someone he called daughter who had a devil.
- 13:36And that was the woman, or I'm sorry, the woman bent over.
- 13:40And so what he's trying to tell you, what every believer doesn't understand,
- 13:45is just because you're going through a hard time, that is not God against you.
- 13:49Just because you're sick, that's not God not healing you. There is a devil in
- 13:54this world and he's going to test you. He's going to try you.
- 13:57But that's why God said, my people perish for lack of knowledge.
- 14:00You don't know anything.
- 14:01If you don't know, you think God is against you. If you're struggling,
- 14:05you think God doesn't want you to succeed. If you're sick, you think God doesn't want you healthy.
- 14:10But what he's trying to show you is that Jesus Christ always delivers people.
- 14:16But there is a fight to your faith. We don't fight devils.
- 14:20We fight the good fight of faith. And what is that?
- 14:24He tells you, hold fast to your confession. Hold on.
- 14:29You know, there's all these songs. Hold on, baby. Hold on. Don't let go.
- 14:34Some of you like, I know Marissa's watching. She got big old dogs. I used to have a pit bull.
- 14:38My pastor used to say, hold on to the word of God, like a pit bull with a bone.
- 14:43When the devil comes knocking at your door with trials, tribulations,
- 14:48struggle, don't feed him a meal and say, that's right.
- 14:51God hates me. This sucks. No, you stand your ground and say,
- 14:56I don't know who you think you're messing with, but you got to go. And it might take, look,
- 15:01Let me tell you something. I was in a fight for two years one time.
- 15:04Now I'm not telling you that's how long it'll take for you. I'm telling you
- 15:08what happened to me, right? Your healing is to his glory.
- 15:11I'm telling you so. And I don't think, let me tell you something.
- 15:14I don't think I needed to be in that thing for two years.
- 15:17I struggled desperately with forgiveness. I struggled desperately with fear.
- 15:22I'm just letting you know. And I think that prolonged it.
- 15:25So I'm letting you know.
- 15:27Satan doesn't just let you go, woo, I got victory. There is a fight to your
- 15:32faith, but it's one you win, and this is how you win it.
- 15:35You submit to God. You resist the devil, and he has to run, and you understand
- 15:41that the work has been finished.
- 15:43Many, many religions want to tell you that you got to do this and that and this
- 15:48and that, and that's how you get free, but there's the finished work with the cross.
- 15:53Jesus loves you and he paid it off. And listen to this real quick. A daughter of Abraham.
- 16:00And none of the people in the 15 New Testament deliverance events are ever recorded
- 16:04coming back for another deliverance.
- 16:07It's not that I don't believe in deliverance ministry. He said there's not one
- 16:11recorded incident in scripture where somebody gets set free and they got to
- 16:15keep coming back to get set free. Do you know why that is?
- 16:17Because the Bible says whom the son sets free is free indeed.
- 16:21When Jesus sets you free, you are free. When I got into Christ and I was delivered,
- 16:27I didn't have to come running back every week and say, oh, please set me free. I was already free.
- 16:32But there is a cult out there. There are teachers out there that make you dependent upon them.
- 16:38There are ministers that talk about their great anointing. Who do you think
- 16:42you are? There is one person with a great anointing, and that's Jesus.
- 16:46And I'm only a vessel. Am I anointed? Yep, because of him. Not because of me.
- 16:51But guess who else is anointed? You are.
- 16:54And any preacher that tells you that you don't have the same Jesus they have,
- 16:59that you got to come to their special anointing is a nutcase.
- 17:03Let me tell you the simplicity of the gospel.
- 17:06Born again, spirit-filled Christian has as much power as any apostle in the Bible
- 17:13because you have the maker of the universe on the inside of you and the devil,
- 17:18he runs in trembling fear, if you know who you are.
- 17:22But if you walk around like most Christians, the devil and the devil and the devil's got me.
- 17:27And then let me tell you what I've been confessing about going into the devil's
- 17:30den, which I'm headed to in October. You know what I told the devil?
- 17:33You're not touching me. You're not touching my team, my family.
- 17:37You'll back off. I'm taking territory for Christ. And you're not going to mess.
- 17:40You're not going to mess with my finances.
- 17:42I forbid it. I don't allow you to have a place because I'm watching my mouth.
- 17:48And so that's what you got to do. Watch your mouth.
- 17:50Put a hand over your mouth right now and say, watch my mouth.
- 17:54Not man's way. But then speak life. The early church fathers of the second,
- 17:57third, and the fourth century believe in and practice deliverance, as do I.
- 18:00Please share this, Kenny. They insist that deliverance happen by the name of
- 18:03Jesus, the confession of the gospel, and the laying on of hands,
- 18:05not by elaborate techniques, long series of commands, special formulas,
- 18:09or psychological pressure.
- 18:11Justin Martyr and Tertullian in their early writings emphasized that demons
- 18:15would flee at the mere mention of the crucified and the risen Christ without
- 18:19the need for complex rituals. Right. Get this.
- 18:21Tertullian was so convinced that demons were subject to ordinary Christians
- 18:26through the authority of Christ that he challenged the Roman courts.
- 18:29Bring me a demonized person and pick any Christian you want across the empire
- 18:32and have them command the spirit to come out. If the demon will not submit,
- 18:35you can execute the Christian on the spot for being a fraud. God.
- 18:38Now, let me tell you something. This is like Kenny. Kenny's watching.
- 18:43And, you know, because he's seen me do stuff and he knows that God moves through
- 18:46me, he was dealing with a demonic situation.
- 18:49And so he wanted me to come help.
- 18:51He said, Lisa, I need you to come. And I said, dude, you've been in my church
- 18:55for at that time, what, three years, Kenny? I don't remember. I said, years.
- 18:58You go do it. You go do it.
- 19:00You don't need me. You've got you've got Jesus in you. Gayla,
- 19:04I don't know if she's going to watch today. Gayla, same thing.
- 19:07You know, she thought she needed me. I said, no, you don't. You go do it.
- 19:10And that is the gospel of Jesus Christ. The gospel of Jesus Christ empowers
- 19:14you, not just the preacher.
- 19:17You have the power. Point your finger at yourself. Say the finished look of
- 19:21the cross is that Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe, and power goes into you
- 19:27in the name of Jesus. Amen. All right.
- 19:30The witness of church history stands against approaches that treat deliverance
- 19:35as a skill set involving specific sequences, naming spirits extensively,
- 19:38prolonged sessions focused on manifestations or special anointings. I'm not walking.
- 20:06Okay. We're going to pause this while we skip this stupid ad.
- 20:09So the gist is that he's telling you that there's deliverance ministers out
- 20:13there that they're always telling you, you got to come get deliverance again.
- 20:16And as long as you do that, you'll need deliverance from now until Jesus comes.
- 20:21And you don't because you've been set free. The simplicity of the gospel.
- 20:24Just the other day, we had this happen at the Seattle campus.
- 20:26They'd sent me the video from it, but sometime during the week,
- 20:28you know, they had the local, you know, witch's coven come out and they had,
- 20:32put together an altar on the front steps of our Seattle building.
- 20:34I felt bad for those The economy must be bad in the hallways of hell.
- 20:38It looked like somebody got drunk and went to a Hobby Lobby and just threw random stuff in a cart.
- 20:42And set up a little altar on our staff thinking they could scare us out of the
- 20:44city. This is good, way too. You know, put their little feathers and bones and- Really good.
- 20:48You know, sprinkle their goat blood. It's like you- Keep sharing,
- 20:51keep sharing. We're growing in numbers. Keep commenting. Keep sharing,
- 20:54thank y'all. You could douse our whole building in goat blood.
- 20:56I'll stand on the top of a goat carcass and still preach this gospel.
- 20:59I'm not backing down, I'm breaking through.
- 21:03But see, if you allow wrong teaching to inform your pneumatology or your demonology,
- 21:08you'll live life thinking you're on the losing side.
- 21:11You don't know who sits next to me in the cubicle at work, and I can just tell
- 21:14they're not a believer. Every time I get in that environment,
- 21:16it just feels like all these demons jump in. Why?
- 21:22Why are you reading low-grade, non-Christian fan fiction about how the spiritual
- 21:26realm actually operates?
- 21:28If you spend time in this book, you get so filled up with power and authority
- 21:31that whatever room you walk in, you become the dominant presence in that environment.
- 21:35Not just me, you, you, you who loves Jesus. I'm going to give you eight ways
- 21:39that you can live a deliverance-free life. Now hear me when I say this,
- 21:42a deliverance-free life does not mean a warfare-free life.
- 21:44It means you stop living like you need demons regularly removed from you,
- 21:48and you start living like a believer who knows how to stand in Christ's victory.
- 21:52Come on, come on, you have victory, yes you do.
- 21:55Submit to God. You got the Holy Ghost in you. He might have come in one way,
- 21:58but he's fleeing seven different ways. I'm not You better run when I come,
- 22:02you better run when I show up. They said, well, I was thinking about a visit
- 22:05to Seattle. I live out of state and I just heard there's a lot of demonic supernatural
- 22:08activity that happens in that region.
- 22:10And in their email, they start asking me about mermaids and Leviathan spirits.
- 22:13And it's like, I don't know if, I feel like I'm on drugs. I feel like I'm on
- 22:17an acid trip reading this email.
- 22:19You've got people who have become experts on what the devil is doing and they
- 22:22only got a GED on what Jesus is doing.
- 22:24Why don't you flip the script? Why don't you live your life focused on not only
- 22:27what God has done, but what God is doing.
- 22:29Well we heard seattle's got a lot of did you hear seattle's got a revival that's
- 22:32cooking right underneath its feet did you hear the church of jesus christ is
- 22:34growing did you hear that we just outbid google to keep a church.
- 22:38Did you hear we have a move of god in kirkland and seattle and spokane did you
- 22:42hear that every time they try to shut us up we get louder did you hear every
- 22:45time they try to shoot up our buildings i'm not stopping i'm not quitting because
- 22:49i don't live a demon focused life i live a magnifying the lord type of life.
- 22:55So, you know, when you listen to this guy, you're listening to a preacher that
- 22:58had to evacuate his house, I think three times now by the FBI because of death threats.
- 23:03Someone was shot on the front steps of his church.
- 23:05This guy is full of power and you are too. He is. And you are too. That's the simplicity.
- 23:11That's what the devil doesn't want you to know. That's why he raises up these
- 23:14cult crazies because he wants you to think you got to go to some special person
- 23:19like that weirdo in Tanzania saying, you got to come to me. No, we don't.
- 23:23We got Jesus is the mediator between me and God. Jesus ripped the veil in half.
- 23:28Jesus paid it all. What do I mean by that?
- 23:31When Jesus Christ died on the cross and his body said, it is finished.
- 23:36There was a big veil and it was like inches thick and it ripped in two and the
- 23:41ground shattered in half.
- 23:43And immediately we had instant access to the father.
- 23:47You don't go through the St. Mary. You don't go through Allah.
- 23:51You don't go through Muhammad. You don't go through 600 prayers.
- 23:55You don't go because you're a good Christian.
- 23:57You go through only the blood of Jesus Christ.
- 24:00Jesus paid it off. You don't go because you're a Mormon and some Joseph Smith
- 24:04talked to you. That's nuts.
- 24:06You go through Jesus Christ. He alone paid the price for you to get to God,
- 24:11to get to heaven. And he loves you and he is on your side. And if you ask him in your heart.
- 24:17You got the very power in the inside of you to keep the devil under your foot.
- 24:22Now, Satan roams. Satan's here. He's on the earth. He's going to reap havoc.
- 24:26But you've got power over him in Jesus' name. Submit to God.
- 24:30Resist the devil. And he's going to flee. Number two, walk in the spirit.
- 24:33If you walk in the spirit, you ain't going to fulfill the lust of the flesh. You got to run.
- 24:37I can't cast out what the Bible tells you to crucify. My dad used to tell me
- 24:42growing up. He said, you know, Russell, some people come to the altar.
- 24:44He goes, I feel bad for the demon. I feel like casting them out of the demon.
- 24:46Like the demon's been trying to get away. They're like, no, no, no.
- 24:49I just got to hold on to this terminally unique, dysfunctional,
- 24:52idiosyncratic item in my life because, you know, I just need another deliverance
- 24:56to make it through. I got to look up some of his words. I'm trying,
- 24:59Jace. Number one, you're not going to fulfill the lust of the flesh.
- 25:01And number two, you're going to stay in the way in which you should go that
- 25:03you would never depart from it, keeping eyes on Jesus, who is the author and
- 25:06the finisher of your faith. Number three, renew your mind with truth.
- 25:09See, a lot of what people call deliverance is actually learning.
- 25:13I want you to get this phrase in your head. and then when I get to my teaching
- 25:16part after this in a second, author and finisher of your faith,
- 25:19Jesus Christ, author, finisher of your faith. He's the one that did it. He paid it off.
- 25:24It's even this Russell Johnson is like one of the most fiery him and Jonathan
- 25:29and all fire, fire, fire. Right.
- 25:31But you got as much power as Russell has. If you've got Christ in you,
- 25:35if you've got the Holy ghost on the inside of you, you don't need to go,
- 25:38man, I just wish I could have Russell pray for me. You, you can do it.
- 25:42That's the simplicity of the gospel. Don't you remember when the apostles were
- 25:45sent out, they came back and shot.
- 25:47Even demons are subject to us in your name. And Jesus is like, what?
- 25:51Like, yeah, that's a low level thing. He said, I saw Satan fall like lightning.
- 25:56In other words, their boss is subject to you.
- 25:59Big whip. And what did he say? Don't get excited about that.
- 26:03He said, be excited that he said, in other words, rejoice that your name is
- 26:07written in the Lamb's book of life.
- 26:09Relationship is what you get excited about. Not that you can cast out devils,
- 26:13but you got preachers making a whole huge, if you cast out devils,
- 26:17every Christian should do that.
- 26:19That's not some special skill set. you got to be off your rocker.
- 26:22Anybody who's full of the Holy Ghost can do it.
- 26:25The first time I cast out a devil, I didn't even know what I was doing.
- 26:28And the Holy Ghost helped me, just like he'll help you. The tear down lies,
- 26:32take thoughts captive, and think biblically.
- 26:37Number four give the devil no foothold don't give him a deal quickly,
- 26:41forgive repent don't knowingly cultivate things that scripture tells you satan can exploit
- 26:46there you go this is one of the principles that help you have a marriage that
- 26:49is healthy you keep a short account with the person you're married to you don't
- 26:51allow the sun to go down on your anger you don't keep stuff just hanging in
- 26:54the background that's unresolved that you just press down until you know one
- 26:58day it explodes and it comes,
- 26:59you deal with stuff quickly come on you know if you transgress the law of god
- 27:03the bible says you can boldly approach the throne of grace to receive help in your time of need
- 27:06but problem is people start dealing with a thing then they allow the devil to
- 27:08put shame and condemnation on them then they feel like well who am i to even
- 27:11go to church or even pray or even lift my hands in worship and that type of
- 27:14activity only further separates you from grace and mercy which has already been
- 27:17applied to your account if you just have the faith to receive it,
- 27:20keep a short account with the
- 27:21lord give the devil no foothold number five put on the whole armor of god,
- 27:26you'll notice if you ever read paul's prescription for putting on the armor
- 27:29of god there ain't no armor that goes on the back come on because you ain't
- 27:33running from the devil you're not a runner you you gotta You're not a runner,
- 27:35say this, say, I'm not a runner.
- 27:37Say I'm not a runner. Say I'm a runner. You've got the sword of the spirit.
- 27:40You've got feet that are laced up with boots. Come on, thank you for sharing.
- 27:43Thank you for commenting. You are on the move. Come on, Ted,
- 27:45one or two people that aren't on here, come to watch.
- 27:47You are not built by God or equipped by God to be running scared for your life
- 27:50from every demonic thing that tries to rattle your cage.
- 27:53No, when you put on the full armor of God, it creates within you a boldness
- 27:56like you can throw me in the lion's den and they ain't gonna be snacking on me.
- 28:01You can put me in prison, you gotta send an earthquake in the middle of the night.
- 28:06You all know I went to Africa.
- 28:08And i was in a tent and i heard the lion and it's scary i had to play daniel
- 28:13in the lion's den in my ear i was like lord i know you didn't let me come to
- 28:16africa just get eaten by this.
- 28:19So i can't imagine being thrown in a lion's den it is not going to prosper because
- 28:23i've been clothed from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet with a resilient
- 28:27armor from god yes that causes me to stand,
- 28:30and continue to stand number six you're going to stay full of the word freedom is maintained by truth.
- 28:35Not by constantly hunting for hidden demons. Jesus says in John 8,
- 28:39you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. Number seven,
- 28:42stop being demon focused.
- 28:44Start becoming Christ focused because
- 28:47you will never mature spiritually by becoming an expert on darkness.
- 28:50Maturity comes from fixing your eyes on Jesus. Why do you think Paul says in Hebrews 12?
- 28:53Looking unto Jesus, the author and the finisher of our faith.
- 28:57What you gaze upon, what you behold, your life will become like.
- 29:01What you cultivate through the vision of your life will become materially evident
- 29:06in everything that you do, everything that you think, everything that you say,
- 29:09everything that you're a part of. Yes, Robbie, full armor, amen.
- 29:12Thank you guys for watching today. Love you all so much. In a big divot in more
- 29:14ways than you could ever imagine, number eight, and I'll end here. Stay planted.
- 29:17We're gonna end right, well, he's gonna end, and I gotta tell you something.
- 29:20If you're watching me, please on Facebook, please subscribe and hit the bell
- 29:24so you know when I'm going live. Please like my page and subscribe.
- 29:27If you're watching on YouTube, subscribe.
- 29:29Wherever you're watching, please subscribe and tell a few people.
- 29:32And thank you. A healthy local church.
- 29:34God has built us and designed us to grow in community, accountability,
- 29:37sound teaching, prayer, worship. That's how you resist. And it comes out of
- 29:39your mouth, Romans, in the 16th chapter.
- 29:41And maybe the greatest theological discourse that we have in the entirety of
- 29:45the New Testament. This is how Paul ends his encouragement to the church.
- 29:50I urge you brothers and sisters, watch out for those who will cause divisions
- 29:53and put obstacles in your way
- 29:55that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.
- 29:58For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites.
- 30:01By smooth talk and flattery, they deceive the minds of naive people.
- 30:06But instead, everyone has heard about your obedience. So I rejoice because of
- 30:09you, but I want you to be wise about what is good and what is innocent and about what is evil.
- 30:15For the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.
- 30:21I think Paul in his day is probably addressing something similar to what I'm
- 30:25talking about in our day.
- 30:26He's sending an apostolic warning to the believers. Don't be moved away from
- 30:30the apostolic teaching of scripture.
- 30:32Don't be moved away from the witness of church history. Don't be moved away
- 30:35from the innocence of delighting in the law of the Lord.
- 30:38Don't be moved away from Gnostic complications that interject new age ideas
- 30:43and try to make them parallel to the purity of the centrality of Christ.
- 30:46And if you will do those things, then soon and very soon, the God of peace will
- 30:51use your feet to crush Satan's head.
- 30:52You wanna live a victorious life? I gave you eight ways to live deliverance
- 30:56free from this moment forward. This church is gonna belong to some of the most
- 31:00victorious faith-filled people the Pacific Northwest have ever seen.
- 31:03And from here until eternity, This is where I stand, for I can do no other.
- 31:19Yes, come on. Isn't that good, you guys? It's so good. He's so good.
- 31:24It's so good. So good. Praise the Lord forever.
- 31:26So I want to talk to you about what he said in 2 Corinthians 11, 3.
- 31:30But I fear lest by any means the serpent beguiled Eve through his stability,
- 31:35so your minds would be corrupted from the simplicity.
- 31:39Simplicity. The gospel of Jesus Christ is very simple.
- 31:43It is this. Once you ask Christ in your heart, once you become born again,
- 31:48you now have power over the devil. He doesn't have power over you.
- 31:53Well, Lisa, I said, no, he doesn't.
- 31:56Now, if you let him in, if you let him in through unforgiveness or bitterness
- 32:00or bad choices or resentment, he's coming for you.
- 32:03It's like a dinner bell to the demons.
- 32:05But if you know who you are in Christ, he can't come in.
- 32:09And it said, if he that comes preaches another Jesus or receives another spirit
- 32:13that you didn't receive, don't bear with him. In other words,
- 32:16there is a finished work of the cross and it belongs to you.
- 32:19Say this in the comments. Just put the word finished, finished.
- 32:23You know how Jesus said, it is finished? You ought to say that.
- 32:26When you get aggravated by the devil, just point your finger at him and go, it's finished.
- 32:30When you are got a bad attitude, point your finger at yourself and say, it's finished.
- 32:34When you don't know what to do, point your finger at your mind and say,
- 32:38that confusion is finished. It's finished. It's a finished work of the Christ, of Jesus Christ.
- 32:43John 19, 28. After this, Jesus knew all things were accomplished.
- 32:49And so scripture might be fulfilled. He said, I thirst. There was vinegar.
- 32:54They sponged it to his mouth. When Jesus received the vinegar,
- 32:57he said, it is finished. And he lowered his head. Come on. What does he mean?
- 33:03He means that I just paid the price for you to go free.
- 33:07I paid the price for your sickness. I paid the price for your confusion.
- 33:11I paid the price for your poverty to be gone.
- 33:14I paid it. Jesus paid it all. No preacher can get it for you.
- 33:18No ministry can get it for you. He paid it. Now you use preachers and ministries
- 33:22to preach the truth to you, to preach the truth of the gospel.
- 33:26It is finished in Jesus name. Y'all don't pay attention to weird comments.
- 33:30Those are demons, just distracting. Don't even acknowledge.
- 33:34Colossians 2.13, and you being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision has
- 33:38quickened together, forgave you your trespasses, blotted out the handwriting
- 33:43that was against you and took it away and nailed it on the cross.
- 33:46He forgave you. He took it away. He nailed the problems to the cross and Jesus
- 33:51Christ spoiled principalities and triumphed over them.
- 33:56That means every devil, no matter how small or how big, the regional devil over
- 34:01Pakistan, you've got more power than him.
- 34:03The demons that are in chicago you got more power the demons in dearborn you
- 34:07got more power over them we have authority over all the power of the devil he
- 34:11doesn't have authority hebrews 2 14 as much than the children
- 34:16are partakers though by death they might destroy the power of death that's the
- 34:20devil you are a child of god galatians 3 13 christ redeemed you from the curse of the law
- 34:26being made a curse for you that the blessing of abraham would come on the gentiles,
- 34:31it doesn't say Jesus will someday redeem you.
- 34:34Christ redeemed you. He became the curse for you. What was the curse of the
- 34:38law? Well, you can find that in Deuteronomy 28.
- 34:41It shall come to pass if you hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and do
- 34:44everything he tells you to do, that these curses won't come on you.
- 34:48So if you obey God, curses won't come on you.
- 34:51But Jesus died to set you free. In 1 Peter 2.24, who his own self bore our sins
- 34:57in his body on a tree, that we, being dead to sin, should live to righteousness,
- 35:04by whose stripes you were healed.
- 35:06You're dead to sin. You know what a dead man does?
- 35:09If you brought a chocolate cake by a dead person, they're not going to eat it.
- 35:12Because they're dead. That's what he's saying. You're dead to sin.
- 35:14When sin comes, you don't want it because you're dead to that thing.
- 35:17Isaiah saw the cross long before it happened in Isaiah 53, 4.
- 35:22Surely he bore our griefs. He carried our sorrows.
- 35:25Yet we did esteem him stricken and smitten of God. But he was wounded for our
- 35:30transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, and our peace was upon him and by
- 35:35his stripes we are healed.
- 35:37Your sickness is finished. Your poverty is finished. Your confusion is finished.
- 35:42Your grief, your sorrow, your problems. He took them all.
- 35:46Matthew 8, 16. When the evening was come, they brought to Jesus many that were
- 35:50possessed with devils, and they cast out the Spirit with the word,
- 35:52and they healed all that were sick.
- 35:54That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet Isaiah himself took
- 35:58our infirmities and sickness.
- 36:01Come on, the blood of Jesus is enough. You don't need the blood of goats or weird things.
- 36:05Hebrews 9, 12. Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood
- 36:09entered once the holy place, having obtained an eternal redemption.
- 36:16For by one offering, he perfected them that are sanctified. Come on,
- 36:201 John 1, 7. If we walk in the light as he is in light, we have fellowship with
- 36:24one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin. All sin.
- 36:29They overcame it by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony. That's in Revelation.
- 36:332 Corinthians 8.9, you know the grace of our Lord Jesus, though he was for your
- 36:38sakes became poor, so your poverty would become rich.
- 36:41Philippians 4.12, I know how to be a base and I know how to be abound.
- 36:45I am instructed both to be full and hungry.
- 36:48Philippians 4.19, my God supplies all your needs according to his riches and glory.
- 36:53Jesus came so we could be righteous. 2 Corinthians 5.21, he made him to be sin
- 36:58for us who knew no sin that we could be the righteousness of God.
- 37:02There's no condemnation in Christ. This is important, y'all.
- 37:04Romans 8. There's no condemnation to those who are in Jesus who don't walk after
- 37:09the flesh, but after the Spirit. Don't walk after your flesh.
- 37:13And you know, when you say walking after the flesh, people always think like
- 37:16a physical sexual sin or whatever. But walking after your flesh is flipping
- 37:20somebody off when you're driving down the highway.
- 37:23Walking in the flesh is running your mouth at God. Walking in the flesh is not
- 37:27forgiving your husband or wife.
- 37:29Walking in the flesh is being offended when someone's done something bad to
- 37:33you. That's all fleshly stuff, you know, so you got to not do that.
- 37:37Jesus disarmed the powers of darkness, Colossians 2.15. Having spoiled principalities,
- 37:42he made a show of them openly.
- 37:45Luke 10.19. Behold, I give you power to tread on serpents and over all the power of the enemy.
- 37:50Whoo! Thank you, Jesus. Charles Spurgeon once said, the sinner doesn't add anything
- 37:57to Jesus' work in order to become accepted.
- 38:00Christ saves, the cross is sufficient.
- 38:03That means your confidence isn't. It's not, I'm good enough, it's Christ is enough.
- 38:10Come on, say that out loud. It's not, I'm good enough, it's Jesus Christ is enough.
- 38:15Andrew Murray once said that our union with Christ isn't just imitating Jesus from a distance.
- 38:21We participate in his life. He lives inside of us.
- 38:24God is not way up there. He's right inside here. That's why I don't have to sin or neither do you.
- 38:29That's why demons have to run in fear when I walk on the scene,
- 38:33just like they do with you. Galatians 2.20, I have been crucified with Christ, yet I live.
- 38:38Yet not me, but Christ who lives in me. And some of you are still trying to
- 38:42live yourself, but you need to be crucified.
- 38:45What's that mean? Okay, well, if the old Lisa was insecure and thought everyone
- 38:49was trying to say something about her, I don't need to be that. I need to be confident.
- 38:52I need to be like Jesus. Jesus isn't insecure. Jesus isn't mad at God.
- 38:57If I'm living through my flesh, I need to check myself or I wreck myself.
- 39:01E.W. Kenyon emphasized that Christ's death, burial, and resurrection is not
- 39:06merely Jesus died. It's that he died for me.
- 39:09Come on, put your finger at yourself. Say he did all that for me. He did that for you.
- 39:14Brother Hagen used to say that because of Christ's redemption,
- 39:17we could act on God's word. You have to find out what belongs to you.
- 39:23The resurrection proves the cross wasn't the end. But for us,
- 39:26who shall it be imputed to righteousness?
- 39:301 Corinthians 15, O death, where's your sting? There is no sting.
- 39:35We have to stop begging for what Jesus purchased. John 16, 23,
- 39:39And that day you'll ask me for nothing.
- 39:41Whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
- 39:45Come on. Faith receives what grace already did. For by grace you're saved through
- 39:49faith, not of yourselves. It's a gift of God.
- 39:51Live like he finished it all when fear tells you god abandons you you say it's
- 39:57finished when you're praying for healing you curse that sickness and tell it it has to go,
- 40:01when you are confused you say nope that anxiety is finished
- 40:05jesus hung on a cross between heaven and earth his body was broken his blood
- 40:10was poured out he carried my griefs he took the curse he defeated powers of
- 40:14darkness and when he lifted his voice to heaven he said it's finished let me tell you something,
- 40:20jesus paid it all. He didn't need your help.
- 40:22He doesn't need your anything. He paid it all for you. And what happens is a
- 40:26lot of times Christians don't understand that Jesus paid it all.
- 40:29They think they've got to do something, but I'm telling you, he paid it all.
- 40:33It is finished. You have all power and all authority over all the forces of
- 40:38the darkness. Maybe you just don't know it right now, but you do.
- 40:41And I'm telling you that you're a powerhouse for Jesus Christ.
- 40:46The blood is powerful it is finished don't try to earn what jesus died to give you you can.
- 40:56For I delivered to you first of all and received that Christ died for our sins
- 41:00according to the scriptures, that he was buried, that he rose again, according to the Bible.
- 41:05Do you understand that? Jesus paid it all. There is nothing that he hasn't already done for you.
- 41:10Jesus paid it all. All to him I owe.
- 41:15Sin had left a crimson stain. He washed me white as snow. I'm telling you that
- 41:20Jesus Christ paid it all for you.
- 41:23You don't have to try to get it. You just have to know who you are.
- 41:27Say this. Say, if I know who I am, I can get it.
- 41:30Yeah. You got to know who you are. You've got to know that God loves you.
- 41:34You have to know that he's on your side.
- 41:35You have to know that he's given you the victory. You have to believe that his blood paid it all.
- 41:40You don't have to struggle to get healed. He paid it all. You don't have to
- 41:43struggle to get money. He's already shown you ways to get it.
- 41:46You give. Amen. All right. Let's pray.
- 41:50You have great victory. You are full of the spirit of the living God.
- 41:55He paid it all for you so that you can be set free.
- 41:59You don't have to be depressed, confused. The simplicity of the gospel,
- 42:03my friend, is Jesus paid it all.
- 42:06You just have to see every mess that you've ever dealt with on his body on the cross.
- 42:12And then whatever it is that you got a problem with, see it going with Jesus to the grave.
- 42:17And then when he came up, baby, he came up with victory and he gave it to you.
- 42:21So now you are victorious. Now you are healed. Now you are delivered.
- 42:26Now you are set free and you don't have to run to a deliverance minister or anybody else.
- 42:30Jesus Christ set you free and whom the son sets free is free indeed.
- 42:35There is power available to heal the brokenhearted.
- 42:39There is wisdom available for finances and future decisions.
- 42:44There is healing here to wipe out every form of sickness and disease in your mortal body.
- 42:51In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, who I serve. If you're watching me and you've
- 42:55got a problem in your mind or a problem in your body, just stretch out your hand.
- 42:59Lord, I speak to the person watching in the name of Jesus of Nazareth,
- 43:02that the anointing from you would go through me and into the screen and touch
- 43:06them right now in Jesus' name.
- 43:08They'll be healed. They'll be whole. They'll be set free. They'll be delivered.
- 43:12Father, I thank you that you help them to know that you paid it all.
- 43:15They don't have to strive to get it.
- 43:18God, I thank you for financial partners in this ministry that you give back
- 43:21to them, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over.
- 43:25And those that give to the gospel, same thing. Thank you, Father.
- 43:28Now, if you're watching me and you just happen to click on and you don't know
- 43:32why you clicked on, I'm gonna tell you why you clicked on, because God loves you.
- 43:36God is looking for you. God wants to help you. He wants to set you free. Free from what, Lisa?
- 43:43Confusion, rejection. Nobody loves me. Nobody cares about me. Yes, they do.
- 43:48Yes, they do. Jesus cares about you. Jesus loves you so much that he sent a
- 43:52random woman to come across your feed.
- 43:55And all you have to do is pray a simple prayer today.
- 43:57All you have to do is know who Jesus is and you can go free.
- 44:01He walked the earth. He healed people that were sick. He took care of the wounded
- 44:06and the lame, and he loves you.
- 44:08He went to the cross to take all your problems. There had to be a sacrifice for that, and he took it.
- 44:13And he got beaten and all this stuff, and then he was buried and rose again,
- 44:16and He rose again with your victory in His hands.
- 44:19Don't you want to accept my Jesus today? Don't you want to ask Jesus in your
- 44:23heart today? Don't you want to stop being hurt and stop being confused? I know you do.
- 44:28So if you're watching me, we're going to say a simple prayer together.
- 44:32And after it, you're going to feel much better. So just say this with me.
- 44:35Say, Father, forgive me. I have made mistakes.
- 44:41Jesus, I believe you paid the price for all my mistakes and that you hung on
- 44:47a cross for me, Jesus, that you were buried and raised again on the third day.
- 44:53Now, Jesus, come into my heart, change my life forever and help me.
- 44:59If you prayed that simple prayer, my friend, like that, you just got pulled
- 45:02out of darkness and into heaven. So now what?
- 45:05Well, open your Bible. Start reading in the book of John. Find out who he is.
- 45:09Read about him. get to a good church. You can watch me online.
- 45:12I'm on here every day to teach you the word. Amen.
- 45:14All right, let me pray another prayer. For those of you watching that are partnering
- 45:18with this ministry or those of you watching that need help, whatever you need,
- 45:21may the mighty hand of God with power come upon you now.
- 45:25May the healing power of Jesus of Nazareth touch your knee, your foot,
- 45:29your ears, your eyes, your heart, your chest cavities, your hips,
- 45:35your back, your legs, your children.
- 45:40May the hand of God's favor touch
- 45:42your bank account. May the hand of God's favor bring you opportunity.
- 45:46May you do exceeding abundantly above and beyond anything you could ask, hope, or think.
- 45:51May you hear wisdom and revelation from heaven today, specifically.
- 45:56May his hand of favor be on you. I want to thank you so much for taking time
- 46:01out of your days, all these times that you guys watch me. I know you could be watching anybody else.

- 46:08could be doing. You don't have to be hanging out here with me.
