- 1:10I'm your host Tamara K.
- 1:12Anderson and today we are walking through the operational steps to confront, rebuke and evict spiritual attacks from your mind, your marriage and your family.
- 1:26Here are what we are covering in today's episode.
- 1:29First, the two punch rebuttal what Jesus in the Wilderness teaches us about pairing scripture with direct vocal commands.
- 1:40Next, we'll talk rebuking the source and not the person.
- 1:45Here we'll look at Matthew chapter 16 to help us target the adversary instead of our loved ones.
- 1:52Then we'll talk about the critical sequence and I'll share my personal story with one of my kids and a panic attack and how it's important to calm the brain before casting out darkness.
- 2:04And finally, we'll talk about the complete eviction and how Mark chapter nine shows us how to command darkness to leave and permanently close the door behind it.
- 2:15All right, let's begin with the master template of spiritually rebuking by looking at the story of Jesus in the wilderness.
- 2:26When you face a spiritual attack, you cannot reason or negotiate with the enemy.
- 2:32Look at how our Lord Jesus Christ handled the adversary in Matthew chapter 4, verses 1 through 11.
- 2:40After fasting for 40 days in the wilderness, Jesus was physically hungry and depleted.
- 2:48Satan repeatedly assailed him, twisting scripture and questioning his divine identity.
- 2:55If thou be the Son of God, notice what Jesus did not do.
- 3:01He did not enter into a philosophical debate and he didn't entertain the doubt twice.
- 3:09He answered him with the Word of God, it is written.
- 3:14And then he delivered the definitive vocal Rebuke in Matthew 4:10.
- 3:20Get thee hence Satan, for it is written, thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
- 3:30Scripture records that the moment Jesus spoke that command, the devil left him and angels immediately came and ministered unto him.
- 3:41Wow.
- 3:42This gives us the ultimate two punch rebuttal.
- 3:45First, declare written truth.
- 3:49You can counter the adversary's lies with scripture.
- 3:53Second, speak the vocal cast out.
- 3:57You can command the adversary to leave in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 4:02Oh my friend, when an attack feels particularly intense, I don't hesitate to ask God for high level reinforcements.
- 4:12In my personal prayers, I often ask Heavenly Father to dispatch the most powerful heavenly beings necessary to come and remove whoever is attacking my home or whatever spiritual weapon has been formed against us.
- 4:28You have the right to ask for heaven's armies as a child of the light.
- 4:35The second critical principle is setting immediate verbal boundaries against your thoughts that try to derail you from your divine mission.
- 4:46In Matthew 16:23, Peter tried to dissuade Jesus from going to the cross and out of human concern.
- 4:55But look at the Savior's immediate response.
- 4:58He turned and said to Peter, get thee behind me Satan, for thou art an offense unto me, for thou savorest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
- 5:10Notice, Jesus didn't attack Peter's character and he didn't sever his relationship with Peter.
- 5:17He recognized the dark source operating behind the words and addressed it directly.
- 5:26Satan was the enemy, not Peter.
- 5:30I have had to apply this directly in my own marriage.
- 5:34There have been times when my husband and I have had intense discussions and emotions have started getting riled.
- 5:42At moments like that.
- 5:43He is really good about pausing the argument so that we can both have space to de escalate.
- 5:49When we pause, I go to God in prayer and say, lord, I don't want to feel this way anymore.
- 5:56And then right there, I ask God in the name of Jesus Christ to help me cast out the spirit of anger, fear, frustration, or whatever else I'm feeling and replace it with God's peace, light, kindness and understanding.
- 6:14Every single time I do this, I can feel the tension drop, my frustration dissolves and I find I'm able to communicate with love once again.
- 6:25So my friend, when contention strikes, stop fighting your spouse or child.
- 6:31Pause and rebuke the spirit of contention driving the wedge.
- 6:36Now you might be wondering, what do you do when a spiritual attack is tied to, say, acute anxiety or panic?
- 6:45Not long ago, one of my children called me in a severe state of anxiety and distress.
- 6:52As they shared what was happening, I noticed they were spiraling and couldn't seem to calm down.
- 6:58Naturally, I immediately stepped into mama warrior mode and I prayed our cast out the adversary prayer.
- 7:05But my child still didn't calm down.
- 7:08As I paused and prayerfully asked God, Lord, what am I missing here?
- 7:14I immediately felt the Holy Spirit whisper in my mind that my child was in an active physiological state of panic, meaning their nervous system was completely locked and fight flight or freeze response.
- 7:30And standard reasoning or rapid prayers couldn't break through that neurological challenge.
- 7:39So I changed my approach.
- 7:41I led my child through slow, deep breathing exercises, breathing in through the nose and then slowly out through the mouth.
- 7:53Within minutes, just breathing deeply and getting that oxygen in their body grounded their nervous system and shifted them out of kind of their survival brain and back into their thinking brain.
- 8:06And then once they were physically grounded and calm, we were able to get the adversary out and fill them with light.
- 8:15It's amazing how instantly peace returned.
- 8:21So remember the sequence that I had to relearn.
- 8:25First calm the physical body and then cast out the darkness and fill the void with light and peace.
- 8:34All right, let's talk about this final way to make a rebuke of the adversary complete.
- 8:40In Mark, chapter 9:25:27, a father brought his afflicted son to Jesus.
- 8:47The unclean spirit threw the boy into a violent convulsion.
- 8:52But Jesus, he didn't flinch.
- 8:54He spoke with absolute command.
- 8:56Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out from him and enter no more into him.
- 9:04Notice that two part command come out the eviction or rebuke process and second, enter no more interim or closing and locking the door.
- 9:15When you rebuke the enemy's attack in your mind or your home, you don't just ask him to leave for an hour.
- 9:22You command the spirit of fear, confusion or depression to depart in the name of Jesus Christ and you forbid it or bind it from returning to harass you and your household.
- 9:35Basically, you're sealing the door in Christ's light.
- 9:40Oh my dear friend, you have been given the divine capacity and the tactical roadmap to rebuke every attack that comes against your home in and through the power and name of Jesus Christ.
