SPIRITUAL FIGHTS AND RELEASES

Yaakov, Béla Orbán

"I have a ministry in the countryside, where people have lots of idols in the villages.

What could you recommend me to do? How should I release those people from their idols?

Which are the spiritual weapons that I must use for it?"

G.K.Thomas missionary, western Africa. 

 

My dear brother!

        I must begin my answer by saying that it is not your duty to release and to win battles. Don’t search for weapons to carry out your battles! You can easily loose the fight or yourself be reached and wounded. Or even other people can be wounded, those who are in spiritual communion with you.  

The one who releases is our Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach. He is the only one who gives orders and permissions. He is also the only one who gives us the requested weapons and arms, the necessary power to do it by the Holy Spirit.

We are just soldiers at His service. We have to wait for the orders and the weapons coming from Him before any departure. And He also gives us His protection and cover.

Fighting is not an easy thing.

When I was visiting your country last autumn, a young woman came to me in an assembly. She seemed so tormented by demons that her face and body was distorted. I really had to fight immediately for her release.

I found myself in a very difficult situation!

I had the following thought in my mind:

- Does the Lord really want me to fight for her ? Or is it rather a trap when demons are trying to mislead people?

Why did I have this thought?

Because if any release happened or not, lots of problems could have occurred!

Sure enough:

 

· If nothing happens despite of my prayers, hundreds of people standing next would have been disappointed in my ministry.

· If I did not pray, the implied forces inside her and visible by anyone could have killed her instantly. 

· However, if any release occurs, the situation is even more dangerous!

 

When a release happens, the demon leaves the possessed people and attacks first the one who accomplishes the ministry of release.  

If the demon is not able to do any harm in the releaser, it will go on searching for somebody else among that person’s physical or spiritual family trying to get into one of his relatives.

Moreover there were lots of people standing in the place and at the moment of the release. They had not the required defence to avoid any spiritual attack neither. So, many of these people were in true danger because the demons are always searching with fury for their new place to go.

I immediately asked for God’s response, protection and help for my relatives and for all those people present in the assembly in a few seconds time.  

I even had to ask for the protection of my relatives that were at more than 5000 miles away from there…

Then I had perspired a lot at the issue of this fight in this tropical climate that is rather alien to me.  

But it was our Lord Yeshua HaMashiach who delivered her.

It is good to remember these few minutes after her release when she was standing on stage with a microphone worshiping the Lord in front of the whole assembly…

I wish this ministry was a beautiful example to everyone, a testimony in your rural ministry.

Because idolatry means the rule of demoniac powers.   

As far as I know, it exist a lot of tribal religion in Africa. Many gods or rather demons are ruling there. When I was doing my ministry of spiritual advisor among your people, I heard many times about many occult things and religions that I have never heard before.  

However, the situation is not better here in Europe. Even if Europeans seem to point Africa with their finger concerning occult practices, satanic spirits in action… The old continent is as infected as any other continent in the world together with Africa and Asia. I would even declare that "modern" Europe is even more governed by more demons than Africa.

I would even say that those demons are often disguised as Christians and Charismatics!

No matter what name we give to them. It is really a matter of demons against which, we have to fight the same way.  

The demons named Maria the Virgin and any other catholic saints are invoked each day by millions of people, in places that they call churches or Christian homes.  

But they are also present in political and social life.

Therefore, our fight is the same and has the same importance.

Then, what can I suggest you to do?

All I can give to you are my own testimonies, my own experiences.

 

1. / Anyone who goes fighting has to be provided whith all the necessary weapons.  
 
      These weapons can only fulfil their protecting and attacking functions in the life of somebody who is born again.

2. / The soldier has to prepare himself for the fight so that the ennemy couldn’t attack any territory of his life.  

      His life and his family life have to be in order before God.  

3. / He has to have brothers and sisters in spirit, allies in the battles, people who help, assist and protect them by their prayers...
     
      This army has also to be invulnerable, and to be in spiritual order with God.  
4. / However the most important is that no battle has to be started without the signal of our Lord.
 
      It is very important to know and claim that nothing has to be done without Him.  
 
      Satan and its demons are laughing at us but they know our Lord, the Messiah and they are trembling before Him. 
 
 
Therefore, we must know that there is no human authority. Only Yeshua HaMashiach’s rule is and has to be working by the Holy Spirit in the life of those that He saved and released. He is the only one who gives orders and permissions for all ministries!

 

As soon as somebody is ready and prepared for all these things... then he can go on fighting...

-In a physical point of view, we have to be present in the fighting places. We can distribute or send books, teachings or cassettes…

-We also have to change people’s mind. We must aware them to change their way of thinking in spirit. For that, we have to go to them and teach all that we know about the enemy. We must talk about it and unveil everything so that the possessed person can be aware that he or she is ill, in a state of spiritual slavery and what are the possible consequences of such a state, where can all this lead him and what are the tools used by Satan against people?

-Spiritual battle starts only after this!

The reason of that is very simple:

If someone does not recognise his spiritual state or if he doesn’t want to be released from the hold of the demon and to submit himself to the reign of Christ, we can do nothing for him…

The only things we can do in such cases are praying and fasting so that Christ changes the mind of the blind people so that the will of the release comes from a personal decision.  

We must recognise that the release of these people, territories, nations and villages does not depend on a human will.  

This is the reason why methods, projects and decisions should not come from Man neither.  

The project and the moment are in the hands and in the sovereign Will of God.

What is so our main and first duty then?

- Put our lifes in order before God

- The spiritual recover of our families, communities and assemblies

- A submited preparation before God in humility and obedience to be able to wait for His calling into fight.

A preparation ministry always has to precede spiritual fights.

Before these battles, God enlists us in preparatory ministries.  

When a person or a group of people become important to us, God himself urges us to pray for them...  

 

My dear brother!

I know that my answer is very short. That is why I will try to write more about this problem later. Although I have to end my letter by a warning.

During my journey in your homeland, I asked the following question to myself: Why did they build up the second biggest catholic basilica of the world in your country…?

There can be several explanations to this...

Such as Corinth, your own town is also a port where numerous people, new cultures and spiritualities are present and passing through each day.  

I think that such cities as yours and mine too; Budapest because of their geopolitical situation is in the same situation than Corinth was in biblical times. We should keep an eye on Corinth’s history and on what happened there in those times.  

The other reason is more spiritual.

As we know well, there are lots of religions in your continent that are not only pagans but also spiritualists, full of sorcery and recently even the false prophecies also appeared over there… Demons like each other. They walk hand in hand giving and exchanging peoples’ mind between each other!

When someone would like to be released from idolatry because he or she recognises the consequences and the curses coming from that, it immediately appears another idol, with all its demons that tries to take the place of the previous one. This new idol and its demons are most of the time disguised in Christian!

They use the Bible, the name of Jesus and try to bewitch people by the magical use of the cross.  

In such cases, people become visibly Christians but actually, nothing else occurred than a cell exchange in Satan’s prison.  

Then comes the next disguised Christian called charismatic that works under the name of the Holy Spirit.  

New charismatic idols settle in and are worshiped before or even in place of God.

This is how the Holy Spirit and His gifts turn to be objects of idolatry and hole assemblies, ministries and pastors many, many times become also idols.  

Do never forget that Christ is the Lord and the only one…

He is the only one who won and who can still win. He is the only one who can send people at war, in missions, in battles of a worldwide dimension. He can only send people who live in His Spirit of Truth. It is only in Him, by Him and with His authorisation that we can fulfil our ministry against the idols.

Shalom!
