3. HOW TO DISCERN A DEMON FROM AN<br />
OPPRESSION AND HOW TO EXPEL IT<br />
THINGS THAT HAVE TO BE DISCERNED DURING COUNSELLING<br />
1. WHERE did the person give ground to the enemy God<br />
gave man the ability to resist. Nothing can be done to you<br />
without your permission, e.g. sin (Soul Care School –<br />
Lecture 7 – The Will).<br />
2. HOW MUCH ground was given to the enemy, e.g. many<br />
years of not resisting; unbiblical lifestyle; unbiblical<br />
standards in marriage; wrong habits, etc. A lot of<br />
teaching will be required.<br />
If the enemy has legal right to be there, it will be difficult to expel<br />
him. There is no quick fix<br />
3. HOW OPEN is the person to receive E.g. if the person has just been saved,<br />
first minister to the occult root area, bloodline curses, occult objects, etc.<br />
True repentance is important. Also deal with the deliverance from drugs, alcohol,<br />
sexual lust, etc. E.g. living together before marriage - explain marriage, etc.<br />
4. How much deliverance can the person MAINTAIN E.g. if the couple is living<br />
together or in a marriage with wrong foundations, jealousy, selfishness and wrong<br />
actions deliverance only will not be enough. If the person carries hatred and<br />
anger, he will not maintain his deliverance. He must first be freed in order to<br />
go back to that relationship and walk in forgiveness. A lot of teaching is<br />
required – don’t just chase demons!<br />
Break the patterns of wrongful behaviour against each other that they have<br />
performed for years, e.g. run to the bottle every time there is a crisis. Don’t fall<br />
back into sin or try to escape every time you become angry! [Alcohol can be a<br />
way of escape.] Teach the person about open doors, e.g. smoking, drinking,<br />
etc.<br />
People want you to pray for them to change their thought patterns in order to<br />
stop a sinful habit. Remember the WILL of man! Be on guard against secret<br />
sins that the person does not want to confess and stop doing, e.g. the person<br />
confesses smoking cigarettes, but not dope. This secret sin is a bondage that<br />
draws the person back into sin again.<br />
