Today @ 2:11a.m is the last quarter moon
- There will be an escalation of arrows shot at the righteous this month because of heightened occult violence in diverse manifestations against God’s people.
- Pray that God will smite the bows of the occult out of their left hands and cause their arrows to fall out of their right hands (Eke 39:3)
- As the moon is established as a faithful witness in heaven, so ask the Lord its creator to make it a faithful witness of the victory of His people over every affliction. (Ps 87:37).
- As the last quarter moon wanes there will be a releasing of every matured prophecy released over your life in this month. You will see good fruit of what the heavens have declared over the nations occurring in your own life and experience.
IDENTIFY THE ENEMY
Jesus has been given a name above all names. Everything named must bow to the name of Jesus. Notice when we are dealing with names, we are dealing with principalities and powers. Once you identify the names of the enemy, you can use the name of Jesus to destroy them. Demons have names, and they must submit to the name of Jesus.
COMMON DEMON NAMES AND GROUPINGS
The following is a list of common demon names. This list is by no means comprehensive, but it represents a cross-section of demon spirits. These are common demon groupings (spirits that usually operate together), however, be led by the Holy Spirit because there are endless combinations of spirits that will link up and operate together.
- Addiction—alcohol, drugs (identify the name of the drug), nicotine, bondage, gluttony.
- Bitterness—root of bitterness, hidden bitterness, anger, resentment, revenge, retaliation, murder, hatred, rage
- Depression—sadness, loneliness, suicide, death, self-destruction, gloom, self-pity
- Fear—fears of hurt, rejection, death, witchcraft, authority, darkness, accidents, man (torment, apprehension, timidity, shyness, terror, panic, worry, dread)
- Lust—adultery, fornication, masturbation, pornography, perversion, rape, sexual impurity
- Pride—arrogance, haughtiness, hardness of heart, self-righteousness, vanity, ego, perfection.
- Rebellion—stubbornness, anti-submissiveness, disobedience, anger, hatred of authority, witchcraft, control, possessiveness, domination
- Rejection—rejection from the womb, self-rejection, hurt, deep hurt, bitterness, anger, hatred, fear of rejection, fear, insecurity, depression, sadness, loneliness
- Religious—tradition, bondage, legalism, hypocrisy, deception, error, heresy, false gifts, religious control
- Witchcraft—sorcery, divination, whoredom, fortune-telling, occult, idolatry, astrology.
Demon spirits work in groups and seldom alone. There is a leader or “strongman” over each group. For example, with the spirit of rejection comes hurt, bitterness, self-rejection, and fear of rejection. Believers need to become familiar with demon groupings in order to be more effective in thoroughly ridding people of demons. Certain spirits will usually link up with one another. Rebellion and witchcraft work together and so does stubbornness and idolatry (1 Sam. 15:23). When casting out spirits of infirmity, you will often encounter death and destruction.
Demons work in groups to vex believers. To vex also means to torment.
And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
—LUKE 6:18, KJV
The word vexed in this verse is the Greek word ochleō, which means to mob. A mob is a group of persons bent on riotous actions.
Once believers receive the knowledge of how demons link up and operate together, they will be more effective in casting out devils. Deliverance can then be exposed and ferreted out of every part of our beings.
The Need for Prophetic Ministry.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
—EPHESIANS 6:12, KJV
Notice that evil spirits are called “rulers of the darkness of this world.” This means their authority is dependent upon the amount of darkness present. The more spiritual darkness and ignorance exists, the more they can rule in that area. Identifying demons is destructive to their kingdom because it brings light into the situation. Identification destroys their cover of darkness.
It brings them out of hiding, and exposes them. I have heard some say you don’t have to call demons by their different names. “Don’t talk about the devil. Just ignore him and keep your eyes on Jesus.” No, by all means No! This was the singular ministry that made Jesus different. Exposing the devil and casting him out!
Demons wants you to believe they should be left alone. I have found that churches that won’t teach on deliverance and demons, or teach about the different kinds of evil spirits, don’t usually cast out many devils. This is because demons are able to hide under the cover of darkness when they are not identified and called out.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. But in all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
—EPHESIANS 5:11–13, KJV
These verses explain what we are doing when we identify evil spirits. We are reproving them. The Greek word for reprove means to expose.
Things that are reproved (exposed) are made manifest by the light. We are causing those evil spirits that are hiding and ruling under the cover of darkness to be exposed and made manifest. This is why there are so many manifestations after we teach on deliverance and expose the works of demons.
