The Triumphant Church
anointing or the power of the Holy Spirit, the Word will
deliver those who believe and act on the Word they
hear.
So I began putting the teaching and preaching of the
Word first. I wasn't so interested in physical
manifestations. In the course of time as I taught people
what the Word said, every single one of those people
was delivered and set free from bondages and problems.
You see, it was the truth they were hearing and acting
on that was setting them free. After I left that church
and went out on the road, I went back to visit that
church some years later, and those same people were
still free. Bondages didn't have a hold on them because
they knew the Word.
Whenever the Word is put first, it will work.
Stick With the Word
The Body of Christ needs to stay scripturally based
on the deliverance issue and not get off in a ditch on
either side of the road, just stick with what the Word
says about healing and deliverance. Yes, demons are
real, and we have to deal with them. And in some cases,
demons do have to be cast out of a believer's body or
soul. But as I've said, in all my years of ministry very
few Christians have needed deliverance in the sense of
needing a devil cast out of heir body or soul, except in
some cases of sickness and disease. Remember, the
Bible calls sickness satanic oppression (Acts 10:38).
But on the other hand, you don't go casting demons
out of everyone you encounter who is sick either. You
don't go casting demons out of someone unless you first
have the revelation from the Holy spirit that it's a
demon causing the sickness in his body. You don't cast
