Earlier, we discussed that:
‘Deliverance is actually classified as ground-level spiritual warfare which has two sides to it- (1) casting out demons and (2) living the higher life of righteousness.

We also explained that Spiritual Warfare is an ongoing process for all Christians.

Here is why:
“Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;
(2 Corinthians 1:10 KJVAE)

If you take the above verse of scripture literally, you will note that God who delivered in the Past, keep on delivering in the Present and will also deliver in the future.

In my book Demons Deactivated1
(Understanding Spiritual Warfare), I already explained the principle of ongoing deliverance. Those who understand the process of sanctification have no problem understanding this concept.

Let me try to simplify the concept here:

When you were born again, and delivered from the domain of darkness and transported into the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, (Colossians 1:13), it was your recreated human spirit that was reconciled to God.

Your Soul and Body need to learn to live as the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus in this depraved world.

We are thankful that God gave us a panoply of weapons in His Word.
That would help us subdue the forces of evil, subdue the innate desires of our flesh, and overcome the ingrained learned behavior.

Hence God said in 2 Timothy 3:16 that,
“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work”

To train and teach your Soul and Body to live the higher life of righteousness, would require that you-

Confront these 3 major war zones:
The world,
Satan the devil and his evil forces, and
The flesh

The world:
Because the world is decadent, the forces of evil are looking to prey on the ignorant. But be of good cheer, our Lord and Savior already overcome the world.( John 16:33)

However, you must remain sober, strong and vigilant in order to nullify all satanic attacks with the shield of faith. (Read 1 Peter 5:8-9, Ephesians 6:10-18)
Satan and his evil forces:
The devil is not an issue at all for those in Christ.
Casting out demons is the easiest part in spiritual warfare, because satan is already a defeated foe. It is God who leads us to triumph daily, as we use the authority invested in us by Christ Jesus (See Matthew 10:8, Mark 16:15-18, Luke 10:19).

However, you must not give the devil a foothold or else, he will have a stronghold of you.
That is why you should cast down all imaginations, philosophies, philosophies, ideologies, denominational dogmas and anything else exalted above the knowledge of God.(Read 2 Corinthians 10:4-7)

Because if you don’t, the time you would have used to go forward, will be wasted pulling down strongholds that you allowed!
The Flesh
The Bible says “the works of the flesh are manifest” another translation says, “the practices of the sinful nature are clearly evident: they are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality (total irresponsibility, lack of self-control), idolatry, sorcery, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions [that promote heresies], envy, drunkenness, riotous behavior, and other things like these. I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19‭-‬21 AMP)

Of the three war zones, overcoming the Flesh-or sinful nature is where the stiffest battles are fought and won. Because the battle is fought in the mind.
Battleground of the mind:
The mind is the seat of the personality. It is from there we think and make decisions that control the direction our lives would go. (Read Proverbs 4:23)

Once you make up your mind about things, execution is easy.
And what we see, hear, touch, smell and taste, influences the decisions the mind makes.

Hence we must daily overcome the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life (See 1 John 2:16)

We must not let our guard down, but strive towards perfection by constantly overcoming the innate desires of the sinful nature.

According to scripture, we must mortify the deeds of human nature. (See Romans 8:13), and also kill it (Read Colossians 3:5, Galatian 5:19-21)

In addition, we must produce fruits worthy of repentance ( Matthew 3:8), as well as manifest the Fruit of the Holy Spirit which is:
“[the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22‭-‬23 AMP)

Let the habitual sinfulness not transcend you to the next generation- it must stop with you.

You must take back your life and the future of your children/family, and stop blaming ancestral curses or yokes.

Do the needful.
Put more effort into developing Christlikeness in worship, character, and service,
Deliverance Procedure/ Spiritual Warfare
*Acknowledge the sin (s) and identify with your bloodline to repent of them. (Read Daniel 9:1-19: 1 John 1:9 in order to understand the principle of identificational Repentance)

• It is important to Believe that God is just to forgive sins, and to also cleanse from all unrighteousness, so you don’t go about with a sin-conscious and guilt-trips mentality.

Because if you do not believe what the Word of God says about God, you call God a liar and will be chain-sinning instead of living righteously.

*When you Confront the sins that opened up the demonization of your bloodline, you neutralize the demonic hordes feeding off sins of the family secrets.

Repentance disables demons and activates the mercies of God.
That’s why the Bible says,
“People who conceal their sins will not prosper, but if they confess and turn from them, they will receive mercy.” (Proverbs 28:13,NLT)

*Command all the demons assigned to your bloodline that are influencing adversities, cyclical problems and evil trends etc, to go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ with all their relatives.
Note This:
You know the active demons by the symptoms or problems that are manifesting in you or other family members.
What to do:
Just call them by name e.g diabetes, hypertension, addiction, poverty, hardship, unrelenting problems, error, instability, indebtedness, failures. Mediocrity, etc.
Give them a destination:
After calling them out, tell them to leave your family and go at once to the feet of Christ Jesus with all their evil relatives.

• Believe in your heart that the demons influencing those conditions that you called out are gone – for with the heart we believe and with the mouth we confess our deliverance (Read Romans 10 :8-10)

*Thank God – gratitude elevates and brings wholeness:(Read tge story of the 10 lepers)

*Go right ahead to PROCLAIM the new conditions that should characterize you and your bloodline.
E.G. AFFIRM we have a sound mind, divine health, excellence in all aspects and facets of life, stable marriages, sexual purity, restoration of Godliness etc…

You can even DECREE that all your family shall become born again and also RELEASE to your bloodline the anointing of God’s Spirit that brings salvation, healings, deliverance….

Declare all this in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.
Worship in songs and pray in tongues if you have the gifts.
