As we have said before in the other articles in our Spiritual Warfare section – when demons are attacking someone, they are either doing it from the outside, which means they are on the outside of the person’s body, or they are doing it from the inside, which means they are in the inside of a person’s body.

In this article, I want to give you a good deliverance system to use when dealing with some of these heavier inside type of cases.

Every good deliverance minister has his own ways and his own system that he uses when dealing with these heavier inside type of cases.

Over the years the way that I personally developed this system was to first read and study from the deliverance ministers who have actually written books on this subject matter, who have done this on a very regular basis, and who have had very good success with all of it.

My common sense just told me that God has been raising people up in this area over the last 20-30 years, and that some of them have been instructed by Him to write books on their experiences so they can help teach others on how to do this. Jesus tells us to cast out demons in the Bible, but He does not tell us exactly how to do it. The Bible also tells us that the Holy Spirit is our Teacher and Guide In this life.

Put these two verses together, and I believe that God is trying to tell all of us that you have to be led and taught by the Holy Spirit on how to do all of this. And the way that you do this is to first start reading from all of the people who have very anointed ministries on this part of our walk with the Lord, and then work on the cases that God will start to bring your way.

Once those cases start to come your way from the Lord, then the Holy Spirit will take charge and teach you and lead you as to how to do it.

In other words, you will learn how to do it by actually trying to do it with the real live cases that God will start to bring your way.

Sooner or later, you have to actually jump in the water before you can really learn how to swim in that water. And it is the exact same way in the area of being able to deliver people from demons.

You will actually learn how to do all of this by taking on the individual cases that God will start to bring your way over the course of time.

And do not worry about making mistakes in this area. This is all a big learning curve with God and He will cover you if you make any honest mistakes along the way. Many people never try to do any type of deliverance for fear they will either mess up, or for fear that this is all just too hard, too messy, and too ugly to get into in the first place.

For those of you who really feel no leadings from the Lord to enter into this kind of arena for some of the above reasons, then that is okay too. Most Christians will never get involved with any type of deliverance ministry where they are dealing direct with demonic spirits for some of the above reasons. But what I would tell these type of people is that God can still use you anyway in a mighty way to help other people out that do have demons attacking them.

As we have said in our article, “Looking for a Deliverance Minister,” if you are too afraid or just flat out do not want to be doing this type of intense work for the Lord, you can still work with demonized people by trying to get them to a good deliverance minister in your area who can get them delivered if you do not want to do it yourself.

In the above article is a very dramatic testimony of a woman who did just that for her demonized roommate. She had to go seeking and searching for the right person who could get her roommate delivered, but she eventually found the right minister on the third attempt.

As a result, her roommate received a full-scale deliverance from the Lord and she is still demon-free to this very day. And this was all due to the fact that her roommate cared enough to try and do this for her.

Again, if any of you simply do not want to enter into this type of intense work for the Lord, but would like to be used by Him from time to time to help these kind of people out, just read and follow the logical and straight forward steps that are in that article on leading someone to the right deliverance minister who will be able to help set them free.

And then once you do find a few good people who know how to do this type of work for the Lord in your area, then you can refer other demonized people to them down the road if God were to ever lead any more of these types of cases your way.

Before I get into this deliverance system on dealing with demons who are on the inside of people, I want to cover two other topics in this area of our walk with the Lord. Once you start to try and educate yourself in this area, you are going to come across two very big areas of debate.

1. Can Demons Live on the Inside of a Christian?

The first big area of debate that you will come across is whether or not Christians can actually have demons living and operating on the inside of them.

Many will say that once you are saved and born again, that there is no way that a demon can enter in on the inside of you.

We have now been bought back by Jesus Christ Himself and He now “owns” us. Thus, there is no way that a demon or a group of demons can enter in on the inside of a Christian.

At first glance, this appears to be a very logical and valid argument. But in the actual fields of combat, the deliverance ministers who do this on a very regular basis, have found out that Christians can get demons on the inside of them if the appropriate legal rights have been given to the demons to be able to enter in.

Here is their reasoning, and for the record, we do fully agree with this reasoning. The Bible says that we have three parts to our being – body, soul, and spirit. When we get saved and born again, the Holy Spirit comes to live in our human spirits.

It is our human spirit that is instantaneously regenerated and born again at our conversions. Our souls and our bodies are not regenerated at this new birth, it is just our spirits. Please refer to our article, “Regeneration by the Holy Spirit,” on the actual verses on all of this.

What happens in the spiritual realm is that if the appropriate legal rights have been given to the demons to be able to enter in, they will then move into the body and soul of the person. The demons will not be able to enter into the spirit of a Christian because the Holy Spirit is already living there.

One deliverance minister uses the analogy of the Temple that the Jewish people built for God the Father back in the Old Testament to illustrate all of this.

In that Temple built for God by the Jewish people, there were three main parts to it – the Outer Court, the Inner Court, and the Holy of Holies. The manifest presence of God was only in the Holy of Holies, not in the Outer Court or the Inner Court.

In the same way with all of us, the Outer Court of the Temple represents our physical bodies, the Inner Court represents our soul, and the Holy of Holies represents our spirits.

Just as the manifest presence of God was only residing in the Holy of Holies, in the same way the Holy Spirit is only residing in our human spirits, which is the innermost part of our beings, just like the Holy of Holies was the innermost part of the Jewish Temple.

The Bible also tells us that our bodies are now the temple of the Holy Spirit. Some people believe that the word “bodies” means that the Holy Spirit is actually living in the human body itself. But if you use this Jewish Temple analogy, which I believe is analogous to our human-spiritual makeup with the Lord, I believe that our physical bodies are now His temple due to the fact that our physical bodies now actually “house” our human spirits where the Holy Spirit now lives in – just like the Outer and Inner Courts “housed” the Holy of Holies where the manifest presence of God was really at.

This big debate on whether or not a Christian can have a demon living on the inside of them has been going on forever in the Body of Christ and obviously will never be resolved anytime soon until Jesus comes back down for His millennial rule and He then finally lets all of us know who had the correct interpretation on all of this. But until then, each Christian will just have to make their own call on all of this.

After studying all of this at length over the years, it is just my own personal opinion that these deliverance ministers are correct in their assessment in that demons can enter into Christians if the appropriate legal rights have been given to them to be able to enter in. And this will now lead us right into the next topic of debate – the issue of legal rights.

2. The Legal Rights Issue

The 2nd big area of debate you will find as you start to research this topic is on the legal rights issue.

Many people argue that nowhere in the Bible does Jesus or the apostles talk about any kinds of legal rights that demons may have to attack us. Jesus just tells us to cast out demons, and they thus believe that you just go in there and take your authority and start commanding the demons to come out and leave the person without trying to find out what their legal rights may have been to be able to attack this person in the first place.

Again, our take on this is that Jesus tells us to cast out demons, but He does not tell us exactly how to do it. And again, this is where you fall back on the verse that it is the job of the Holy Spirit Himself to be our Teacher and Guide in this life. And one of the areas that I believe that the Holy Spirit will help teach us and guide us is in the area of having to deal directly with demons who are attacking people.

I remember when I first saw this big debate occurring as I started to research this topic years ago, that my common sense really kicked in.

The Bible tells us in the story of Job that we all have some kind of a basic protective hedge surrounding us. If we did not have some kind of basic protective hedge surrounding us with the Lord, then these demons would be attacking all of us non-stop, 24/7. We would all be under constant attack and we would be doing nothing but battling demons all of the time.

If we really do have some type of protective hedge from the Lord surrounding us and protecting us, and then someone manages to have demons abnormally attacking them – then my conclusion is – that there has to be some type of specific reason that this has been allowed to occur with these demons – and that specific reason will be their legal right.

For instance, if a Christian decides they are going to start doing drugs like cocaine, heroin, or meth, they then will have committed a direct willful sin against the Lord.

And if God decides to sovereignly allow their basic hedge to break down because of this direct willful sin against Him, then the demons will be able to see that big hole occur in their protective hedge and they will then waste no time in barreling right through that hole to launch an all-out attack on that person and his life.

The door opener for the demons to be able to come directly after that person in the first place was them engaging with drugs that are directly forbidden by the Lord. That door opening activity has now given the demons full legal right to be able to come directly after that person with a severe type of an attack.

In order to be able to set that person completely free from the demons who are now attacking them, you first have to deal directly with the door-opening activity of them engaging with the drugs in the first place.

The way you do this is that the person first has to be willing to confess their drug usage out as direct sin against the Lord, and then they have to be willing to fully repent of it and renounce it, telling God that they will never, ever do it again.

If the person is willing to both confess this sin out and then fully renounce it before the Lord, then the legal right that the demons had in the first place has now been fully removed and taken care of before the Lord, and they will now have to leave this person once you start to directly engage with them.

But if the person is not willing to give up their drugs or if they do not believe it is an actual sin before the Lord, then you will not be able to cast those demons out of this person, and the person will then continue to remain under heavy attack from these demons until they can see the real the truth on this matter.

Deliverance ministers who do this on a very regular basis have found out through real live actual deliverances, that if you do not take care of and remove the legal rights that the demons are operating on, then they will not leave once you start trying to cast them out.

These demons know how the real game is played, and as long as their legal rights are still firmly and solidly in place, they know they do not have to leave the person once someone starts to try and cast them out with basic types of command words. But get their legal rights properly taken care of and broken with the Lord, and then you will be able to cast them out of a person very easily.

Again, when I first studied this debate, my common sense just told me that there are reasons for most everything. And if demons are abnormally attacking someone, then there has to be a specific reason for it. Just find out what that specific reason is, which will be their legal right, get it properly taken care of and broken with the Lord, and then you will be able to cast the demons off that person with no problems.

I know this debate will be like many of the other debates that the Body of Christ has to deal with. We will just have to wait for Jesus to come back down to us before we will find out who was correct on all of this.

But for the record, when God started to bring these types of cases my way – on most of them He always had me to deal with what the legal rights were that allowed the demons to be attacking these people in the first place.

And then once I found out what those legal rights were and then got them properly taken care of and broken before Him, then the demons came off the person very quickly once I started to directly engage with them.

I thus have to side with all of the good deliverance ministers I have studied from over the years. I fully agree with most of their thoughts, their conclusions, and their findings in the actual fields of combat.

For the record, here are the 7 best books on deliverance I have read to date. And every single one of these men and women have found out that breaking the legal rights of the demons is the best way to go in being able to successfully cast them out of a person.

1. “When Pigs Move In” by Don Dickerman

2. “Defeating Dark Angels” by Charles Kraft

3. “Healing Through Deliverance – Vol 1 & 2” by Peter Horrobin

4. “Deliverance From Evil Spirits” by Francis MacNutt

5. “Spiritual Warfare” by Richard Ing

6. “How to Cast Out Demons” by Doris Wagner

7. “I Give You Authority” By Charles Kraft

The first book listed from Don Dickerman is a new book that has just come out. This man is a Baptist minister who was raised up in a very legalistic environment. God broke him free from all of his legalism and showed him many fascinating truths on this part of our walk with the Lord.

These 7 books are absolutely the best of the best and I cannot recommend each one of them highly enough if you would like to learn the real nuts and bolts on how true deliverances are actually done in the Lord.

We also want to add that in many of the demon cases that have come our way, many of these people have tried to get delivered from other people who were not going directly after the legal rights of the demons.

And then once they came to our site and we showed them how to go directly after the legal rights that the demons were operating on, then they were able to get set free from their demons very quickly.

Again, our own personal experiences in this area have perfectly matched up with the experiences of the men who have written the above 7 books.

Basic General Rules to Follow

This deliverance system should be looked upon as a rough, basic outline. Once you start doing deliverances with demons, you will find out very quickly that there are two basic rules that you will have to abide by with the Lord:

Realize that no two cases will ever be alike. And that you have to be totally guided by the Holy Spirit on each one, as sometimes there will be some very interesting twists and turns that will occur in some of these cases.

The basic outline I will give you below will give you a very good way to start so you can get your feet wet with all of this. This system will probably work on most of the demon cases that God will bring your way.

But just realize that there are harder types of cases out there, and that you will really need to be guided by the Holy Spirit if any of those harder types of cases ever come your way.

Before I get into the main steps on doing an inside deliverance, here are 11 basic general rules that you will need to abide by with the Lord before setting someone up for an actual deliverance with the Lord.

1. Make Sure Your Slate is Fairly Clean

If you are the one who is going to be casting the demons out of someone, then the first thing you will need to be aware of is your own personal slate with the Lord. God is not looking for absolute total perfection from you.

But if by chance you have any type of heavier unconfessed sin in your life that you are still engaging in, and you still have not got it properly taken care of with the Lord through confession and repentance, then you may have to step back and let someone else do the deliverance.

If you don’t, here is what could happen to you. If for example you are out committing adultery behind your wife’s back and no one knows about it but you and God, then what could happen right in the middle of an actual deliverance is that the demons will be able to say exactly what your sin is out loud right through the person’s mouth where everyone in the room will be able to hear it – both fully exposing you and embarrassing you right in front of everyone who will be in the room with you.

There have been documented cases of this actually happening. And when it does happen, many of the times the person trying to do the deliverance is so shaken up and so embarrassed by what the demons have just told everyone, that they then have to turn the reigns over to someone else to finish out the deliverance.

So if by chance you have any type of heavier unconfessed sin still lingering on you and you are still engaging in, and you have not gone before God the Father to get it properly taken care of through confession and repentance, then it would be my strong recommendation that you not be the one to try and do the deliverance. Let someone else who has a cleaner slate than you be the one to try and do it.

And again, I am not talking about total perfection. We all have our rough edges that need to be smoothed out by the Holy Spirit. What I am talking about are the heavier types of sins where you would not want them to be fully exposed by the demons right in the middle of an actual deliverance.

Heavier sins such as adultery, using any type of drugs, doing any kinds of shady dealings or activities on your current job where you know you are pushing the envelope with the Lord, being addicted to internet pornography, and any kind of dysfunctional activity going on in your own household which you know is wrong in the eyes of the Lord – all of these types of heavier unconfessed sins could get you into major trouble right in the middle of an actual deliverance with these demons.

If by chance the demons try to bring up any past sins, but you have already confessed those sins out to the Lord earlier on and have been fully forgiven, just command the demons to shut up and be quiet, and that they have no right to bring those sins back up since they have already been fully forgiven under the blood of Jesus.

2. Make Sure You Are Walking in a Full Surrender With the Lord

Only saved and born again Christians can cast demons out of people. The Bible says that demons are cast out by the Word of God and by the power of the Holy Spirit, and only born-again Christians have the Word of God and the Holy Spirit in them.

Nonbelievers do not have the Word of God or the Holy Spirit in them, and they thus do not have the power or authority from God to be able to cast demons out of anyone.

And if by chance they are doing it, the demons are just tricking and duping them. The demons may leave for a short period of time to dupe the nonbeliever, but they will then enter back into the person they have just left, and the person will then be no better off than what they were before the nonbeliever tried to cast them out.

However, as a born-again believer, there is now one more thing that you must be willing to do before you can successfully engage with Satan and his demons. You must also be walking in a full surrender with the Lord. You must be both saved and fully surrendered with the Lord in order to be able to cast demons out of people. This revelation is coming direct from the following verse:

“Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee.” (James 4:7)

Notice the very first sentence – “Therefore submit to God.” Submitting to God means that you are walking in this full surrender where Jesus is now both your personal Savior and your personal Lord. Making Jesus the Lord over your life means that He will now be the One to control the direction your life will now take.

If by chance you are new to this site and you have just come straight to this article, we ask that you go to our article titled, “The Full Surrender,” in the Bible Basics section of our site.

This article will give you all of the main verses from the Bible showing that we also have to make Jesus the Lord of our lives where He will now be the One who will fully guide us in this life through His Holy Spirit.

Also in this article is a very good full surrender prayer that you can do with the Lord that will get you into this full surrender with Him if you have never done this before with Him.

3. Be Led by the Lord as to Which Cases to Take On

If you feel that your slate is now clean enough to take on these kinds of heavier assignments with the Lord, then the next step is to pray to God to see if He will want you to take on the individual cases that will start to come your way. Do not assume that you can take on any demon case that may come your way. You have to choose your battles very wisely and very carefully in this realm.

Bottom line – God the Father is our Commander-in-Chief and He will be the One to decide which demon cases we are to take on and which ones we are to let go.

Here are some of the reasons as to why God may not want you to take on a particular demon case that may have just come your way:

a) The person may not want to be really delivered from their demons. The demons have been in them for so long, that they actually like the activity levels and stimulation they are receiving from these demons, even though it is all negative and evil.

b) The person may not want to give up the legal rights that the demons are operating on. For instance, someone may have demons in them as a result of engaging with internet pornography. They are not willing at this time to give up their pornography. So until they are ready to give it up, confess it out as a sin before the Lord, and then be willing to renounce it, the demons will still have the legal rights to be able to stay attached to that person and any kind of a deliverance attempt will just be a complete waste of time.

c) The person may not want the demons out because they like all of the pity and sympathy they have been receiving from others over the years. They would prefer to continue to wallow in their self-pity rather than have the Lord really deliver them.

d) The timing may not be right. God may be dealing with some personal issues with that person and you will have to wait for God to give you the green light before you attempt to cast the demons out. There may be some things that God may have to straighten out or deal with before He will be willing to deliver this person.

e) The person may be a nonbeliever and he may not be willing to accept Jesus Christ as his true Lord and Savior. A person cannot get delivered from their demons unless they are willing to get saved and born again through Jesus Christ.

These are just some of the reasons as to why God may not want you to take on a particular case. I never take on a demon case unless I have a solid green light from the Lord to be doing so. You are stepping out on a real, live, major battlefield when you directly engage with demonic spirits, and unless you have God’s direct permission and authority to be stepping out on this kind of battlefield, you could get yourself seriously hurt, as these demons are much stronger and much more intelligent than we are.

4. The Deliverance Team

If you can, make sure the deliverance team consists of at least two or more people, with one person taking the basic lead to directly engage with the demons.

If you are a man and you are are getting ready to to deliver a woman, then make sure that your assistant is a woman.

The reason being is that there have been documented cases where the demons have made the woman cry rape when none has ever occurred. It is much better to be safe than sorry on this kind of a possibility, so have at least one of your assistants, if at all possible, be a woman. You don’t want any type of false accusations or misrepresentations occurring in this type of a private setting.

When Jesus sent out the apostles to walk with His anointing to heal the sick and to cast out demons, He always sent them out two by two. I know in some cases you may get stuck doing the deliverance all by yourself. This has happened to many deliverance ministers.

If that is how God has arranged for this deliverance to occur for whatever reason, then just go with Him on it. But on a normal type setting, it is always best to have at least one other person to help you do this, and possibly up to 5 or 6 depending on what kind of case you are dealing with.

If you are dealing with a man and he has very violent type demons in him, you may want to have 4 or 5 stronger men with you to help hold him down if they should try and get violent with you.

But we will show you how, in the battle commands below, how to keep this kind of violent activity from ever really occurring, as you can simply command and order the demons not to violently manifest inside the person once you start up the deliverance.

It would also be our strong recommendation that if you know of any good strong intercessors with the Lord, to contact them before you start and tell them what you are dealing with on your end, and then have them pray and intercede for you as you get ready to take on your case.

And they can all do this direct from their homes with the Lord. They do not have to be with you where the actual deliverance will take place at.

5. The Setting For the Deliverance

Be led by the Lord as to where He will want the deliverance to take place. It can take place in a church, in your home, in the demonized person’s home, or in your office if you have that kind of private space available.

Also make sure to have a box of tissues, a waste bucket, and a dry towel nearby for the person. Sometimes the person may start crying if they have to relive certain painful events from their past. You will need a box of tissues just in case the person will start crying.

You will also want the waste bucket nearby in case the demons leave out of the person’s mouth. Sometimes the person can literally vomit as the demons are being expelled out of them.

Most of the times this will not happen, but sometimes it does. So it would be wise to have this nearby just in case this kind of a manifestation does occur at the moment they are being cast out of the person.

You may also want to have some water and snacks available if you think the deliverance may take some time to get fully accomplished. Don’t be afraid to take some breaks from time to time so every one can rest and recharge their batteries. This kind of work can be draining, so do not be afraid to take some timeouts when you think they will be needed.

Also make sure there is a restroom available for everyone and make sure that you watch the person who is being delivered when they have to use the restroom if you think the demons may try and act up with them.

There have been documented cases where the host will try and lock themselves in the restroom since the demons will try and act up and stop the deliverance from going any further. Just have someone of the same sex stand guard outside the restroom door so the person does not try and hurt themselves or lock the door on all of you.

6. Prepare the Person For What May Take Place

The next thing you will need to do is to properly prepare the person for what could take place once you start up the actual deliverance process. Tell them that the demons may talk to them on the inside.

If they do, tell the person to tell you what they are saying to them so you can see if there is anything specific the Lord will want you to do with it. You will want the person to be an active and willing participant in this process, not a passive robot.

Also tell them that the demons may try and manifest in different parts of their bodies during parts of the deliverance. If they do, tell them to try and fight and resist it using their own natural will power.

Tell them they can use their own measure of self-control and will power against these demons. Most of the times, the person’s own self control and will power will be enough to stop the demons from manifesting to any appreciable degree.

You will also be commanding the demons yourself not to manifest or cause any kind of a commotion or disturbance once you start up the deliverance.

Advise the person that some of the manifestations that could occur is that they could feel a tightness in their stomach area, nausea, tingling sensations, eyes fluttering, headaches, and possible burning sensations in various parts of the body.

If by chance any of these manifestations start to occur in the deliverance, tell the person there is nothing to worry about and for them not to be afraid.

The demons are manifesting because they are now scared, and they know they are about ready to lose the house they have been living in all of this time.

7. Don’t Stand To Close to the Person Once You Start Engaging With the Demons

I have see some deliverance ministers get right up into the face of the person they are trying to deliver. But it would be our recommendation that you keep a safe and reasonable distance between you and the demonized person.

The reason being is that there have been documented cases of the demonized person lashing out with a kick to the groin or ribs, or a punch or scratch to the face. Jaws and ribs have been bruised and broken because the minister got to close to the person once they started to engage with the demons.

So again, it is much better that you use good common sense so that this possibility does not ever occur. Better to be safe than sorry, as you do not want to have to deal with the repercussions of an actual physical injury.

You also do not have to get into someone’s face to flaunt the authority that you already have in Jesus.

However, if during any part of the deliverance you do feel a strong leading from the Holy Spirit to lay hands on the person, especially at the part where you are commanding the demons to leave, then by all means go ahead and do it. But it would be our recommendation to only lay hands on the person if the Holy Spirit tells you to do it, as we feel it would be better to error on the side of safety on this issue.

Once you have established the distance you will want to work at, then you can look directly into the eyes of the demonized person.

The demons will not like the light of Jesus that you will have coming out of your eyes. The person may try and look away, but if at all possible, try to have them to maintain proper eye contact with you through most of the actual deliverance if they possibly can.

It would also be our recommendation not to start screaming and going into a verbally abusive tirade once you start to directly engage with the demons. Some people like to try and put on a show, and they will then start jumping up and down and screaming at the top of their lungs at the demons.

You do not have to try and put on a show for either yourself, the host, or the demons. If you know who you really are in Jesus, then so will the demons. You can directly engage with the demons by using a nice, firm, authoritative tone with them.

There could also be some heated moments that could occur where you will feel the Holy Spirit really rise up in you and raise up the tone and intensity of your voice, especially when you get to the part of the deliverance where you are starting to directly cast the demons out of the person. But again, even the Holy Spirit will control the wrath and anger that He may start to manifest against the demons.

If you studied how Jesus cast out demons in the Bible, you can tell by the way that He was directly engaging with them, that He did it with a very firm and authoritative tone of voice. You don’t get the picture that He was screaming at the top of His lungs or acting like a crazy person.

You also don’t want to scare and intimidate the host himself with a lot of useless screaming and yelling. Just calmly, and with great force, authority, and conviction, take these demons head on, as you already have the authority and anointing direct from Jesus Himself to be able to take on and cast these demons out of a person.

8. Do Not Try and Cast Out Alters

If by chance the person you are working with has had severe abuse and trauma in their backgrounds, and part of the core of their personality has split off into several different alters in order to help them survive all of their past abuse, DO NOT try and cast out these alters like you will be doing with the demons.

After the person has been fully delivered from the demons, God will then have to merge and integrate the alters back into the core of the person’s real personality. This will all be done through a process of inner healing by the Lord that will gradually take place after the deliverance has been fully completed.

If you try and cast out those alters like you will be doing with the demons, you could cause serious damage to the person’s psyche, as these alters have been God’s way of allowing the core of that person’s personality to remain intact, and to be able to withstand the more extreme type of abuse and trauma they have had to endure over the years.

If you try and cast out those alters, you could further damage and fragment the core personality even more.

When the core personality splits off and fragments into these different alters, this is actually a self-defense type mechanism that God has placed into our systems so we can withstand some of the more brutal and violent types of abuse that can be inflicted upon us.

Just like if you took a hammer and started to hit you arm. Pretty soon after a repeated number of blows, the bones in your arm will give way and break and fragment.

In the same way, when a human personality has been going through severe trauma and abuse over a long period of time, the human personality can only take so much before it will break and split off into several different personalities, which are known as alters.

Another way to look at this is that the person will “disassociate” once they start to go through any type of severe trauma and abuse.

This disassociation will create a new personality, and this new personality will then be the one that will deal with the pain they are going through. This way the core of the person gets somewhat protected from all of the abuse that is being inflicted upon them.

So again, do not try and cast out alters if you ever come across this phenomena inside of a person. After the deliverance is over, just pray to God that He start the inner healing process with this person, and ask Him to merge and integrate all of the alters back into the core of the person’s personality over the time frame that He will want to do it in.

9. Holy Water and Anointed Oil

On some of the more heavier cases, you can also use both holy water and anointed oil. The demons hate both of these and sometimes they will scream out that they are being burned and tormented once the oil and/or water is placed on the body of the demonized person.

Holy water can also be used by sprinkling it around the house in which the person is living in, as you will also want to drive the demons out of their houses as well as their bodies.

In reference to being able to use anointed oil on the demonized person, the Bible tells us that we can anoint someone with oil if they are sick. And someone who has demons living on the inside of them is definitely in a sick condition. Here is the verse that will tell us that we can anoint someone with oil if they are sick:

“Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.” (James 5:14)

Again, be led by the Holy Spirit as to when He will want you to use one or both of these in any given deliverance.

10. Fasting

In Matthew 17:21, Jesus tells the apostles that the demon the apostles were trying to cast out would only come out by “prayer and fasting.” As a result of what Jesus told the apostles on this one situation, this means that sometimes God will be asking you to fast right before you take on a heavier type case. Just be led by the Holy Spirit as to when to fast and when not to fast.

You do not want to get into legalism thinking that you have to fast on every single demon case that ever comes your way. The apostles were apparently casting out other demons without having to fast, so again, just be led and guided by the Holy Spirit as to which cases He will want you to fast on.

But just realize that this is a very powerful option and strategy that you can use, especially on a heavier inside type of case like what the apostles were apparently dealing with when Jesus told them that this kind of demon will only come out by prayer and fasting.

11. Duration of the Deliverance

If the demons cannot be cast out on the first session, then schedule another session at everyone’s convenience. Also, when the host leaves from this first session, make sure that you issue a strong battle command to the demons not to hurt or harm them during the interim between the two sessions.

Also be cognizant of how long you are working on each of these sessions. When you get to the point of everyone is starting to get tired, you are better off ending the session and picking it back up on the second session, as you can easily lose your focus and concentration once you start to get too tired and weary.

The Deliverance System

There are 8 basic, strong steps on being able to deliver people who have demons living and operating on the inside of their bodies. Here are the 8 steps in a bold, numbered format so you can have all of them right at the top of this section. I will then go into each step in the captions below so you can see exactly what you will have to do in each one of these steps.

Saved and Born Again The Full Surrender The Rite of Water Baptism Break All of the Legal Rights of the Demons Pray to the Lord Before Engaging With the Demons Dry Up the Waters of the Enemy Tear Down the Inner Kingdom of the Enemy Bind the Lesser Demons to the Chief Demon and Cast Them All Out as One Spirit

This system should cover most of the demon cases that will ever come your way, but you will still need to be fully guided by the Holy Spirit in some of these steps as I will explain below.

Where you will really need the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit will be on step 4, where you will try and determine what all of the legal rights are that the demons have been operating on. This step is the heart of this system, and this is where the battle will either be won or lost with the demons.

Bottom line – find out what all of the legal rights are that the demons are feeding and operating on, get them properly taken care of and broken with the Lord, and then the rest of the steps will be very easy to complete – as the demons will then have nothing left to be able to hold onto and they will then be very easy to cast out of the person with the strong wording I will give you below.

1. Saved and Born Again

Whenever a demon case first comes your way, the very first thing you will have to look at is whether or not this person is a Christian. If this person is not a Christian, then you will have to lead them into a true salvation experience with the Lord before you could even begin to try and deliver them from their demons.

Deliverance from demons is only for Christians or for people who are willing to become Christians. If the person is not willing to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, then you will have to let it go until they are ready to do so.

Here is the link to our article on what the basics of salvation through Jesus is all about, along with a good sinner’s prayer they can use to receive eternal salvation through Jesus Christ. We have used this specific article on several demon cases recently, and the people have all received true salvation experiences with the Lord off the basic salvation prayer that is in this article. Here is the direct link to this article:

“The Basics of Eternal Salvation Through Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”

Once the person has truly received Jesus Christ as their personal Savior, then they will be ready for the next step.

2. The Full Surrender

After the person has received a true salvation experience with the Lord, then the next step they will need to take is to be willing to make a full and complete surrender of both themselves and their entire lives over to the Lord. They have now just made Jesus Christ their personal Savior, but they must also now make Him their personal Lord.

Making Jesus Christ their personal Lord means they will be willing to completely turn the reigns of their lives over to Him so He can then start to lead them down the divine path and plan that He has already set up for their lives. The reason this particular step is so important in spiritual warfare is due to the following verse:

“Therefore submit God. Resist the devil and he will flee.” (James 4:7)

Notice the very first sentence – “Therefore submit to God.” Submitting to God means that you have to be in this full surrender with the Lord where He will now be the One to handle and control the direction that your life will now be taking from here on in. And if you are not operating in this full surrender with the Lord, then you will not be very successful in being able to resist the devil and his demons when they do move in for an attack on both you and your life.

Again, here is the direct link to our article titled, “The Full Surrender.” It would be our strong recommendation that you print this article out for them and have them read it in its entirety so they will know exactly what they will be getting into once they make Jesus the Lord of their lives. Also in this article is a very good full surrender prayer they can use with the Lord that will get them into this full surrender with Him.

They will have to get both saved and fully surrendered with the Lord before you can start the deliverance process with them. Here is the full surrender prayer from our article they will need to say before the Lord so He will know they are really serious in making this kind of all-or-nothing commitment to Him

“Father, In the name of Jesus, I am now willing to place my body, my soul, my spirit, and my entire life into Your hands. I now ask that You place me into Your perfect will for my life. From this moment on, I will choose to stay fully surrendered to You all the days of my life and will allow You to lead and direct my life in the direction that You will want it to go in. Thank You Father.

Thank You Jesus.

Thank You Holy Spirit.”

If the person is already a Christian, but they have never made this kind of a full surrender to the Lord, then again, have them read the above article and then have them make that full surrender to the Lord using this kind of full surrender prayer.

3. The Rite of Water Baptism

If at all possible, have the person go through the rite of water baptism if they have never done it before. If you can do it at the time you get the person saved, that would be great and that would be our first recommendation. But if by chance you have to do it at a later date, then try and arrange for it to be done before you actually try to do the deliverance.

The reason I say this is because there have been documented cases of demons being completely expelled out of a person once they go through the rite of water baptism. Demons hate the rite of water baptism and there is always the chance the person could receive a full scale deliverance from their demons if you have them go through this rite before you even attempt the actual deliverance.

If all of the demons can be cast out of the person just by going through this holy rite, then you will not have to go through with the rest of the deliverance, and you can then save both yourself and the demonized person from having to go through the intensity of an actual deliverance.

Here is the link to our article titled, “The Rite of Water Baptism.” In this article are all of the major verses on why Jesus wants all of us to do this rite as part of the salvation experience with Him.

If by chance this person is already a Christian and for whatever reason they have never been through this rite – again – it would be our strong recommendation that you have them do it before attempting to do the actual deliverance, as they too may have their demons fully expelled out of them just by going through this very powerful rite.

4. Break All of the Legal Rights of the Demons

Once someone is saved, fully surrendered to the Lord, and has gone through the rite of water baptism, then they will be ready to go into the actual deliverance process itself. And this will now take us right into the real heart and most important part of this process – how those demons were able to get on the inside of that person in the first place.

As we have said in the above introduction to this article, we fully believe in the legal rights theory that so many good deliverance ministers use in their deliverance ministries.

I believe there are reasons for most everything since our God is a God of perfect order and reasoning. And when demons have attached to someone, whether it be on the inside of that person or on the outside of that person, there has to be a specific reason as to why those demons were able to attach to that person in the first place.

Bottom line – the battle will either be won or lost on this specific step. Find out what the specific reason is that allowed these demons to attach to this person in the first place, and you will then find out what all of their legal rights are. And then once you find out what all of their legal rights are, then get them properly taken care of and broken before the Lord. And once all of the legal rights of the demons have been properly taken care of and broken before the Lord, then they will have absolutely nothing else left to be able to hold onto, and they will then be much easier to cast out of the person once you start to directly engage with them.

Due to the extreme importance of just this one step and all of the different kinds of legal rights that demons can use against us, we have created another article in our site titled, “Dealing With the Legal Rights of Demons.”

We ask that you go to this article when you are ready and take your time to read and study from it. This article will cover many of the basic legal rights that demons will try and use against us. In this article I discuss what some of those basic legal rights are so you will know exactly what to look for when interviewing the demonized person.

5. Pray to the Lord Before Engaging With the Demons

Once you have all of the legal rights that the demons have been operating on properly taken care of and broken before the Lord, then you will now be ready to start to directly engage with the demons so you can finally cast all of them out of the person once and for all.

However, before you get ready to directly engage with the demons, you will now need to do one more very important thing – and that is to pray direct to the Lord for His protection and His power so you will then be able to drive these demons out of this person for good.

Even though we now have God’s direct power and authority to be able to cast out demons, I still feel we should approach the Lord in a direct prayer, asking Him to anoint us with His power for the battle, along with asking Him to move full force against these demons as a Man of War, since demons are cast out of a person by His Word and by the power of the Holy Spirit.

At the end of this prayer, you will also be speaking out direct to the demons themselves, telling them that they are not to interfere with the deliverance process in any way once you start it up. You will also be binding them up so they cannot attack you or the demonized person in any way, shape, or form. This way you will be able to keep any type of violent attacks from ever coming your way.

You will also be forbidding the demons to try and communicate to any other spirits who are on the outside of them, as sometimes these demons are taking orders direct from higher-ranking spirits who are on the outside of the person’s body.

Here is a good sample type of prayer you can use with the Lord. This is just how I would word it. But feel free to add anything else in it that you feel would apply to the specific situation that you are dealing with on your end.

It would also be our recommendation that you read all of this prayer out loud in front of the demonized person so the demons will hear you loud and clear. You are now getting ready to go to war with these demons, and you will now be letting them know, in no uncertain terms, that God the Father is now getting ready to cast all of them out of this person through His Word and by the power of His Holy Spirit.

For the purposes of this sample prayer, I will name the demonized person as being John, and the legal rights these demons had to be able to attack him was him getting involved with the occult.

But if by chance your case has more than one legal right, just state all of them out one by one to the demons, telling them that all of their legal rights have now been properly taken care of and broken before the Lord, as all of their legal rights would have been properly taken care of and broken with the Lord in step 4 above.

When doing your own case, just simply adjust the wording to fit the specific set of facts that you are dealing with on your end.

“Father, In the name of Jesus Christ, I now come before You to take on the demons who are now living and operating in John. Father, these demons have now been in John long enough. He has had enough of their torment and bondage and he is now ready to be set fully free from these foul and evil spirits. Father, in the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, I now ask that You personally anoint me for this battle. Father, in Your Word you have told us that we will have Your power and Your authority to be able to trample over all of the power of the enemy and that nothing shall be able to hurt us. You have told us in Your Word that no weapon formed against us shall prosper. You have told us in Your Word that we shall cast out demons in Your name. You have told us in Your Word that You are a Man of War and that You can be stirred up to go into battle for us. Father, I now ask that You stir Yourself up as a Man of War and that you personally take on these demons and drive them right out of this man and right out of his life for good – never again to return to bother, harass, or torment him – ever again! Father, I now ask that You shine Your holy light into every part of John’s being and every part of John’s life so we can see exactly what these demons have been up to with him so we will know how to fully handle this situation with him. Father, fully expose these demons for what they really are – defeated, fallen angels who fell from Your mercy, love, and grace up in heaven. Father, shed Your holy light on these demons so they cannot run or hide from this deliverance. Father, show us any additional legal rights during this deliverance that we may not have uncovered earlier on so we will know exactly what we will have to take care of with You. Father, You have said in Your Word that the Sword of the Holy Spirit is Your Word. Father, in the name of Jesus, I now ask that You let Your Word be my Sword. Father, I repeat, let Your Word be my Sword so that these demons can now be fully driven out of John once and for all. Father, I now ask that You fully arm me for this battle. I now take up and put on my helmet of salvation, my shield of faith, my breastplate of righteousness, and my Sword of the Holy Spirit so I can now fully operate under Your full anointing against these demons so You can drive and cast all of them out of John once and for all. Father, I now ask that You allow Your full spiritual armor to be put on me right now in the name of Jesus so I can now do battle against these demons who are on the inside of John. Father, these demons have now been in John long enough. Father, I now ask that You declare ALL OUT WAR against these demons. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we now ask that You move FULL FORCE against these demons as a mighty Man of War so John can be set fully free from these demons, once and for all. Father, in the name of Jesus, I now plead the blood of Your Son Jesus Christ over every inch of my body, over every inch of my soul, and over every inch of my spirit so I can now have a full protective covering against these demons. I now ask that You station your battle angels all around me so they can protect both myself, John, and everyone else who is in this room so no harm will come to any of us during this entire deliverance. Father, I also ask that You allow the blood of Your Son Jesus to fully protect myself, John, and the rest of the people who are in this room from any of these demons being able to attack any of our personal possessions such as our houses, our cars, our families, our finances, and our health. Father, I ask that You fully protect all of us from any type of vengeful act from any of these demons after You have fully cast all of them out of John. Demons, I am now coming against each and everyone of you in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I repeat, I am now coming against each and everyone of you operating under the full power, the full authority, and the full anointing of God the Father. Demons, the Word of my God tells me in Luke 10:19 that my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has now given me the full authority to be able trample on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and that nothing shall by any means hurt me. Demons, the serpents and scorpions that Jesus is talking about in this verse is all of you, and I thus have my Lord’s direct authority and power to be able to cast all of you out of John once and for all. Demons, Jesus has told us in Luke 9:1 that He has given His disciples “power and authority over all demons,” which includes all of you who are on the inside of John. As a true disciple of Jesus Christ, I now have His direct full authority and His direct full power to be able to cast all of you out of John once and for all. Demons, the Word of God also tells us in Exodus 15:3 and Isaiah 42:13 that my God is a “Man of War” and that He shall “go forth like a mighty Man,” that He shall “stir up His zeal like a Man of War” and “that He shall prevail against His enemies.” Demons, every single one of you is a direct enemy of the Lord and He will now be moving against each and everyone of you. God the Father will now totally prevail against all of you. You are no match for His strength and His power. I repeat, the Lord of Hosts will now be moving against each and every one of you right now as a mighty Man of War and you will have absolutely no chance against His wrath, against His fury, and against His power. Demons, you are now all done and you are now all finished. Your show and your time with this man is now all over. Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, I now bind up each and everyone of you right now so you cannot attack or harm either John, myself, or anyone else who is in this room. I repeat, I bind up each and every one of you right now in the name of Jesus Christ so you cannot harm either John, myself, and the rest of the people who are in this room. You are to stand down and completely back off him, and you are not to engage with either John or myself in any way, shape, or form. You are not to move an inch, say a word, or harm a hair on this man’s head during this entire deliverance. Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, I am now raising up my shield of faith against each and every one of you. This shield of faith from my Lord and Savior is now forming an invisible and impenetrable shield between you and us. You will not be able to cross this shield in any way, shape, or form. Both myself and every single person who is in this room is now being fully protected by the Lord with this shield of faith. Every single one of you is now fully bound up and completely shut down – all in the name of Jesus Christ. To every single demon who is on the inside of John, in the name of Jesus Christ, you are not to run, hide, or attempt any kind of communication to any other spirits who are on the outside of John. You are not to seek out any kind of help or reinforcement from any outside spirits whatsoever in the name of Jesus Christ. All of your lifelines and all of your cords to any of these outside spirits has now been completely cut and completely severed – all in the name of Jesus Christ. The Word of God tells us that God the Father will “cut in pieces the cords of the wicked” (Psalm 129:2). All of your cords to these outside spirits have now been completely cut, completely severed, and completely cast off, all by the power of the Holy Spirit. If there are any demonic spirits who are in this room, but not on the inside of John, I now command you, in the name of Jesus Christ, to leave this room and to leave this building and do not come back to this place ever again. GO NOW, in the name of Jesus Christ. To the demons who are on the inside of John, you are now all bound up together to the head, chief demon and you are now all fully paralyzed. You cannot move an inch, say a word, or harm a hair on this man’s head or anyone else who is in this room. Demons, there will be no manifestations whatsoever from this point on. You will not attempt any type of violence. You will not attempt any type of vomiting or distracting type of behavior. You are now all shut down and completely bound up by the power of the Holy Spirit. Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, I also forbid you to try and communicate with one another on the inside of John. To each and everyone of you, you are not to talk to or try to get any help whatsoever from any other spirits who are on the inside of John. All of your communication lines are now totally and completely cut and severed by the power of the Holy Spirit so none of you can communicate in any way, shape, or form with one another. I forbid the head, chief demon from being able to communicate with any of his underlings, and I forbid any of the underlings from being able to communicate with the head, chief demon. Demons, we now know what all of your legal rights have been with this man over the time that you have been in him. John, not knowing any better, foolishly started to dabble in the occult. But he now knows that what he has done was a direct sin against the Lord and that He was breaking some of God’s basic commandments on us not having anything to do with the occult. But John has now fully confessed, fully repented, and fully renounced all of his activities in the occult before God the Father. The blood of Jesus Christ has now fully washed away all of John’s transgressions against the Lord and He has now been fully forgiven and fully washed clean by the blood of Jesus. Demons, as a result of this man’s transgressions being fully confessed out and fully forgiven by the Lord, you no longer have any more legal rights in which to stay attached to this man. I repeat, in the name of Jesus Christ, you no longer have any more legal rights to stay attached to this man, as all of your legal rights have now been fully broken and fully severed as a result of his full confession and full repentance before God the Father. Each and everyone of you will now have to leave him in the name of Jesus Christ. I repeat, each and everyone of you will now have to leave this man in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”

You have now set the stage for being able to drive these demons out of John once and for all. You will now be going full force against these demons in the next three captions I will now give you.

As I said above, if there is more than one legal right involved on your case, just state all of them out one by one in the above prayer, telling the demons that each and every one of their legal rights has now been properly taken care of and broken with the Lord.

All of their legal rights would have already been properly taken care of and broken with the Lord in step 4. Now you are just telling the demons straight to their faces that you know what all of their legal rights have been, that they have now all been fully broken before the Lord, and that they will now have absolutely nothing else left to be able to hold onto.

6. Dry Up The Waters of the Enemy

Here is another very powerful strategy that you can use against the demons when you are in the last part of the deliverance and you are getting ready to start commanding them to now leave this person in the name of Jesus Christ.

This next strategy on drying up their waters is also going to drive home the point and reinforce the fact to these demons that all of their legal rights have now been fully broken before the Lord and that there is now nothing else left for them to be able to hold onto.

When you start using these types of additional strategies against the demons, this will show them that you know what you are doing, that you know how the real game is played in the spiritual realm, and that you will now be coming directly after them and the inner kingdom they have set up on the inside of this person over the number of years they have been in him.

There are several very interesting verses that will show us that we can also use this additional strategy on drying up the waters of the demons once we start to directly engage with them, telling them that they now have to leave this person in the name of Jesus Christ.

Waters are very important to both God and the demons in the spiritual realm. In reference to the Holy Spirit, Jesus tells us in John 7:38 that out of our heart will flow rivers of living water. And the Word of God itself is compared to water in Ephesians 5:26, where it says that “with the washing of water by the word.”

In the same way, demons are also looking for water in which to feed from and drink from in the spiritual realm. The verse that gives us this key piece of revelation is found in Matthew 12:43. This verse says that when demons leave a person they had been in, they go through “dry places” and “seeking rest,” they find “none.” Here is the direct verse:

“When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.” (Matthew 12:43)

Notice these demons are not finding rest in the dry places they are going through after they had just left a person. If they are not finding rest in those dry places, then that tells you they do not like dry places. And if they do not like dry places, then that tells you they like places that will give them some kind of water.

And once they enter into a person because of the appropriate legal rights being given to them, then they will start to feed and drink from the water that is on the inside of the person. And what is the water they are drinking from on the inside of that person? It is the legal rights that allowed them entrance into this person in the first place.

That is why once you break all of their legal rights, you will dry up all of their waters. And once you dry up all of their waters, you will severely weaken them and they will have nothing else left to be able to feed from and drink from.

Weaken the demons with these kinds of additional strategies, and they will then be much easier to cast out once you start to directly engage with them. Here is how to word out this type of battle command to the demons using this particular strategy on telling them that all of their waters have now been fully dried up:

“Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, all of your waters with this man have now been completely dried up. I repeat, all of the waters that you have been drinking from in this man have now been fully dried up. John has already confessed all of his involvement with the occult to God the Father and you thus no longer have any more valid legal rights to stay attached to him. I know the legal rights that you have been operating on with John have been feeding you over the time that you have all been in him. But this is now all over. There is now nothing left for any of you to feed on, to drink on, or to operate on. This show and this game that you have been playing with this man is now all over in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”

When you tell the demons that you are drying up all of their waters, you will want to tell them exactly why. And the way that you do it is by telling them what all of their legal rights have been one by one with this person, and then how you have just broken all of them before the Lord.

You will want to tell the demons straight to their faces that you know exactly why they have been in there all of this time, and that the show is now over since you have now fully broken all of their legal rights before God the Father.

Now that you have fully dried up all of the waters of these demons on the inside of John, you will now continue your assault on these demons by going next after the inner kingdom they have built on the inside of John during the time they have all been in him.

7. Tear Down the Inner Kingdom of the Enemy

When demons enter in on the inside of someone, the first thing they are going to try and do is set up an inner kingdom where they will be trying to set up various types of strongholds within the person, with the chief demon being the head spirit who will be running the entire show and all of the lesser demons being under his direct control and authority.

From there, all of the lesser demons will start to operate on the person with the nature of their personalities. The function names of the demons will tell you what the nature of their personality is, and these demons will then try to infect and contaminate the person with all of their negative personality qualities over a period of time.

In this next strategy, you will now be going directly after the inner kingdom they have built up on the inside of this person during the time they have all been in him. Just like the enemy in natural warfare will have some type of natural home base, fortress, or kingdom built up for themselves – in the same way in the spiritual realm, these demons will try and build up an inner kingdom once they have been able to get in on the inside of a person.

Jesus Himself tells us in Matthew 16:18 that the “gates” of hell will not prevail against His church. Key on the word “gates.” And in many of these types of inside cases, you will literally have a demon who is called the gatekeeper. His job will be to control and guard the opening in the demonized person, and he will also be the one to allow additional evil spirits to come into this person over a certain period of time.

Now that you have severely weakened the demons by breaking all of their legal rights, cutting off the cords and supply lines between them and any outside spirits, and drying up all of their waters so they have nothing else left to be able to feed from and drink from – now the only thing left to do before you start to cast them all out as one spirit is to go in there and tear down the gates, bars, pillars, and walls of the inner kingdom they have built up on the inside of this person over the number of years they have been in him.

In other words, you are going to go in there under the authority of Jesus Christ and completely demolish and tear down the inner kingdom they have built up for themselves on the inside of this man. Here is how you can word this kind of intense and dramatic command to these demons:

“Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, there is now one more thing that I have to do with each and everyone of you. I know that you have all built up an inner kingdom on the inside of John during the time that you have all been in there. But your day and your time with this man is now all over. I repeat, your day and your time with this man is now all over in the name of Jesus Christ. Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit now moving against you, I now fully bind up the gatekeeper demon who has been controlling this gate into John’s body and soul. In the name of Jesus Christ, I now completely break down and tear down the gates that you have established on the inside of John. This gate is now being completely tore down, cut down, and demolished by the power of the Holy Spirit now moving against it. Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit now coming against you, I now tear down all of your pillars, all of your walls, all of your bars, and the rest of your inner kingdom that you have built up on the inside of John. Your stronghold base, your fortress, and your inner kingdom that you have built up for yourselves on the inside of this man has now been completely tore down, cut down, and demolished by the power of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Word of God tells us that God the Father has “broken the gates of bronze, and cut the bars of iron in two” (Psalm 107:15-16). God is now moving forward to completely break down and cut down all of your bars and all of your gates that you had put up in this man. You no longer have a place, a fortress, or a kingdom in which to stay in with this man. You now have nowhere else to go but OUT – OUT of this man once and for all. This kingdom, this show, and this game that you have been playing with this man is now all over. You must now all go and leave this man – and you are to never, ever come back on him ever again.”

Now that you have completely tore down and demolished the inner kingdom these demons have built up on the inside of this man over the time they have been in him, you will now be ready for the final blow, which will finally expel these demons out of John once and for all.

8. Bind the Lesser Demons to the Chief Demon and Cast Them All Out as One Spirit

This next strategy will now be the final blow that you will deliver to these demons. What you will be doing in this final step and strategy is binding up all of the lesser demons to the head chief demon.

And then once you bind up all of the lesser demons to the head chief demon, then you will cast all of them out as one spirit instead of trying to cast all of them out individually, which would take a lot longer to do.

When the demons are actually being cast out, one of two things will happen. Either the person will have an actual manifestation of them leaving or there will be no manifestations. If there are no manifestations, this does not mean they have not been cast out.

The way you will know if they are gone is the person himself will be able to tell you. In some of these heavier inside type of cases, the demons will have been in these people for so long, they will know when they have left, as they will feel much lighter and much more free on the inside of them. The Holy Spirit will also help you with this, as you will be getting a very good witness from Him they have all been finally expelled out of this person for good.

If God will allow an actual manifestation to occur as the demons are leaving, what you could possibly see then is the person either coughing, yawning, or burping the demons right out through their mouths. And when they do come out right through the mouth, sometimes there could be some vomit or phlegm that will come out with them. That is why you should always have some kind of a waste bucket nearby just in case this kind of manifestation does occur.

Demons can also be expelled out through the nose, eyes, ears, the top of the head, and the hands. Sometimes the person will actually feel it as it is occurring, other times they will not feel or sense anything.

Now here is how you can word this kind of intense, final, battle command to these demons so you can drive all of them right out of the person for good :

“Demons, in the name of Jesus Christ, you are now all at the end of your rope with this man. All of your legal rights have now been fully broken with God the Father. You now have nothing else left to hold onto. Your waters have been fully dried up and your inner kingdom has now been completely destroyed and obliterated by the power of the Holy Spirit. Demons, you now have nowhere else to go but OUT of this man. I repeat, in the name of Jesus Christ, you now have nowhere else to go but OUT of this man. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I now come against every single demon who is attached to John, whether it be on the inside of John or on the outside of John. I now bind up every single lesser underling demon to the head, chief demon, who has been running this entire show from the very beginning with John. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, all of these demons are now fully bound up under the head chief demon – all under Your might and Your power. Father, if by chance there is more than one group of demons on the inside of John, with each group having their own head, chief demon and their own stronghold area they have been working on in John, I now bind up all of these groups together as one spirit. They are now all joined together and bound together by the power of the Holy Spirit. To the head, chief demon who has been running this entire show on the inside of John, I now come directly against you in the name of Jesus Christ. I repeat, I now come directly against you in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All of the lesser underling demons are now fully bound up directly to you. I am now going to command all of you to come out of John and leave him as one spirit and when I do, you will all leave John quietly and without any type of commotion or disturbance. When you leave, and you will be leaving, you will not hurt John, myself, or anyone else who is in this room. In the name of Jesus Christ, you will not manifest in any way, shape, or form as you are being cast out of this man. Demons, in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit now coming against you, I now command each and every one of you to come out of John RIGHT NOW – and you are to leave this man, and you are to never, ever come back on him – ever again! Demons, GO NOW in the name of Jesus Christ and do not ever come back on this man or his household ever again. Your assignment with this man from Satan is now over. I repeat, your assignment with this man is now fully over in the name of Jesus Christ. You now have nothing else left to hold onto with this man. This show is now over – end of discussion! Demons, my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has already fully destroyed all of your evil works at the cross. Jesus Christ has already fully disarmed all of your principalities and powers, making a complete public spectacle of all of them and totally triumphing over all of them. My Lord and Savior has already delivered all of us from the powers of darkness, which is all of you. Demons, the Word of God tells us that every single knee shall bow to Jesus Christ and fully confess that He is truly Lord over all. The Word of God tells us that even those who are underneath the earth shall bow and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. And demons, those who are underneath the earth are all of you. As such, each and everyone of you now has to fully bow and fully confess that Jesus Christ is truly Lord over all. As a result, you are no match whatsoever for His power, which is now coming directly against you to drive all of you out of John once and for all. Colossians 2:9 tells us that in Jesus Christ dwells all of the fullness of the Godhead bodily, that John is fully complete in Him, and that He is the head of all principality and power. Jesus Christ is truly King of kings and Lord of lords and you were all totally defeated by Him at the cross. As such, you no longer have any more sway, power, or legal rights over John. This captive is now being set fully free by his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and there is now nothing more any of you can do about it. Demons, the full fury and the full wrath of God the Father is now coming against each and everyone of you. You are to release this man RIGHT NOW in the name of Jesus Christ. You are to leave this man RIGHT NOW as one spirit and you are not to harm a hair on his head as you are leaving him. God the Father is now raining down heaping coals of fire on each and everyone of you. He has now had enough of this show, and by the power of His Holy Spirit, He is now moving against each and every one of you, now fully driving all of you out of this man – never, ever to return to him again. I now plead the blood of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ against each and every one of you. I repeat, I now plead the blood of Jesus Christ against each and everyone of you so that you are all COMPLETELY WASHED OUT AND COMPLETELY CAST OUT OF JOHN – never, ever to return to him again. By the power of the blood of Jesus Christ, I now break all of your holds and all of your evil grip on this man. Demons, LOOSE HIM RIGHT NOW, in the name of Jesus Christ. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I now ask that You loose your battle angels against all of these demons who have been holding John captive all of this time. Father, allow Your holy battle angels to now move forward and strike and smite these demons with full force. Father, I ask that You reign down heaping coals of fire on every single one of these demons. Father, strike these demons right now with Your full fury and Your full wrath. Demons, every single one of you are to come out of John RIGHT NOW in the name of Jesus Christ . And as you are leaving him, you are not to manifest or hurt John in any way, shape, or form. You are to leave John quietly, without any type of commotion or disturbance. GO NOW in the name of Jesus Christ. I repeat, GO NOW in the name of Jesus Christ, and do not ever come back on this man ever again, and do not attempt to try and send any other evil spirits John’s way from this moment on. Father, I now ask that You pour out the blood of Your Son Jesus Christ over every inch of John’s body, over every inch of John’s soul, and over every inch of John’s spirit so he is fully protected from this moment on from any demonic spirits who may want to try and come back against him. Father, I now ask that from this moment on that You give John perfect physical and spiritual protection from these demons and make sure they never, ever come back on him – ever again. Father, let the blood of Your Son Jesus perfectly seal and perfectly protect John from any further attacks from these demons ever again. Father, I now ask that You allow Your Holy Spirit to release from John’s spirit and allow Him to fill up into John’s soul so that he can now become truly Spirit-filled, so the Holy Spirit can now fully protect his soul from ever being attacked by these demons ever again. Let John receive the baptism of Your Holy Spirit up into his soul so he can now become that much closer to You in his walk with You. Father, if there is any part of John’s soul that has been fragmented as a result of these demons being on the inside of him for as long as they have, I now ask that You put these fragments back into John’s soul in perfect order so his soul can now become fully restored and fully healed. Father, thank You for this victory. Thank You for caring enough about this man to get him fully delivered from these demons. Father – to You, to Your Son Jesus, and to Your Holy Spirit – to all of You be all of the glory, praise, and honor for this incredible victory and this incredible deliverance. Father, we will never, ever forget what we have witnessed today. We have seen Your love, Your mercy, Your glory, and Your power come against these demons to set this man fully free, once and for all. Father, again, thank You so much for caring and setting this man fully free today from these demons.”

Again, feel free to add any other wording that you feel will fit the specific situation you are dealing with on your end. You can also go to our article, “Battle Verses to Use Against Demonic Spirits,” and pick out which specific battle verses you would like to use for the specific situation that you are dealing with, and then put them into the appropriate spots in the battle prayer itself.

You can also have all of this battle prayer typed out like we have done and start out by reading it directly to the demons. But from there, just be very open and sensitive to any additional words the Holy Spirit will give you right there on the spot as you are directly engaging with the demons. Also, don’t be afraid to keep repeating certain words or certain sentences from the above prayer as you are reading it out directly to the demons.

By initially starting out by writing everything that you would like to say, you will cover all of your bases and major points with these demons. But be very sensitive to anything else the Holy Spirit may want you to say or do.

The Holy Spirit will become very active with you once you go into battle mode with these demons, and you could get a very nice flow from Him as to exactly what to say to these demons once you start engaging with them.

What I cannot tell you is exactly how long you will have to stay with all of this. Sometimes just once or twice with the above kind of battle prayer, and the demons will then leave and that will be it.

Other times, you may have to stay with it a bit longer. Again, you will have to be totally guided by the Holy Spirit as to exactly how long you will have to stay with each case, and if there is anything else He is going to want you to say or do to get all of these demons fully driven out of the person once and for all.

At the end of this article, I will put this entire battle prayer together from start to finish so you can see exactly how all of this will fit and flow together.

What to Do if the Demons Will Not Leave

In many of the cases that have come our way, the demons have been able to be cast off the person within the first one or two attempts. But on some of the harder cases that could come your way, you may have to stay with it a little bit longer before you will be able to get all of the demons out. It could take more than one or two sessions to get the job fully done on some of the more heavier cases.

It all depends on how long they have been in there, what kinds of demons are on the inside of them, how many legal rights you are having to deal with, and exactly what kinds of strategies that God the Father is going to want to use on the case you are dealing with.

You will have to be totally guided by the Holy Spirit as to exactly how long you will need to stay with each case until you get the complete victory, and if there is anything else He will want you to do before the demons are finally expelled out of the person for good.

If you are having a real tough time in trying to get all of them out, and you feel that you have done everything you can to secure all of the legal rights they have been operating on, here are two additional things you can try.

1. Call Up the Head Chief Demon and Command Him to Tell You What Additional Legal Rights There May Be That You Are Not Aware Of

What you can try next is to call up the head, chief demon and command him, in the name of Jesus, to identify himself by his function name. Then ask him who else is in there with him and what other legal rights there are that you are not aware of that is allowing them to be able to continue to stay in this person.

The only time you really want to converse with the demons is when you are commanding them to give you additional vital information that you will need to be able to cast them out. We are not allowed to have general types of conversations with them.

But we can call up the head chief demon up and ask him to identify himself by his function name so you will know exactly what kind of legal right or rights he has been operating on within the person during the time they have all been in him.

Baptist minister, Don Dickerman, in his excellent book , “When Pigs Move In,” uses this tactic quite frequently with very good results. What he will do so the chief demon will not try and lie to him is to tell him that he is now standing before Jehovah God and that he will not be allowed to tell any lies in His presence. Don has found that demons cannot and will not lie when you tell them they are now standing before the throne of Jehovah God.

And then once you find out what additional legal rights there may be they are still holding onto, then command the chief demon to go back down and not to interfere with the additional conversation you will now have with the person. Once the chief demon has gone back down, then you will question the person on this additional legal right or rights you may have uncovered from this chief demon.

And whatever that additional legal right may be, then just get it properly taken care of and broken with the Lord like you did with the other legal rights earlier on in step 4. And then once that additional legal right or rights has been fully taken care of with the Lord, then go back in there and start commanding the demons to leave once again. Sometimes all you have to find out is one or two additional legal rights that the person may not have been aware of and that will then break their evil grip on the person, and the demons will then be able to be cast out once you start directly engaging with them again.

Here is how you can word the command to the head chief demon to have him tell you what additional legal right rights they are still operating on that you may not be aware of:

“In the name of Jesus Christ, I am now calling up the head chief demon who is still on the inside of John. Head demon, I now command you, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come forward right now and identify yourself by the function name that you are operating on with John. Come forward right now, in the name of Jesus Christ, and identify yourself by your function name and reveal yourself both to myself and to John. Head demon, you are now standing before the throne of Jehovah God, and you cannot and will not tell a lie before Him. So again, in the name of Jesus Christ, I now command you to come forward and tell me what your function name is and what the other legal rights are that we are not aware of that is allowing you to continue to remain in John like you have been doing. In the name of Jesus Christ, tell me right now what your assignment is with this man.”

You can also ask the head chief demon who else is in there with him and what their function names are so you will know exactly what other legal rights may still be in effect with this man.

This is the basic kind of wording you can use to try and get the chief demon to tell you what other legal rights there are that you may not be aware of. If he does not come up on the first command, then say it several more times until he does. You can also tell the person to let you know if the chief demon is talking direct to him on the inside. If he is, then the chief demon will then communicate his function name direct to the person himself.

2. Go Back to the Lord in Prayer

If by chance the above tactic does not work, then what you will have to do is go back in prayer with the Lord and ask Him why these demons are not leaving this person and what else you can do to get this person fully delivered. And this is where you really have to be led by the Holy Spirit, as this is where some very interesting twists and turns could possibly develop with your case.

The Lord may tell you what the additional legal right or rights may be, or He may tell you to go back to the person and ask him some additional questions, which will then fully expose what the additional legal rights may be.

Either way, press hard into the Lord and find out what else you will need to do to get this man fully delivered from these demons. Sometimes God may test your resolve and your determination on a battle like this, so do not give up if you fail on the first several attempts.

Keep seeking with the Lord and sooner or later, He will give you all of the additional information that you will need to be able to cast these demons out of the person once and for all.

Some of the things the demons could still be holding onto may be some unconfessed sin in the person’s life, unforgiveness they may still be holding against someone you may not know of, not being able to make a full surrender to the Lord, and not really wanting to be set free from the demons, even though they say they do. There could also be some additional soul ties that will need to be cut and broken from some of the bad people they have had in their lives.

What to Do After the Deliverance Has Been Completed

After the person has been completely delivered from the demons, you will need to tell them to do several basic things with the Lord. Here is what we would suggest that you tell every person who has just been delivered from the demons who had been attached to them.

1. Legal Rights of the Demons

Make sure they fully understand what the legal rights were that allowed the demons to get on the inside of them in the first place, and then make sure they do not allow those entry points to ever occur again with these demons.

Also tell them to watch out for any counterattacks from the enemy and for them not to fall for any of their tricks or traps. You can also print out and give them a copy of our article titled, “Battle Verses to Use Against Demonic Spirits,” so they will have all of the basic ammunition from the Word of God they will ever need to directly engage with any demons who may ever want to try and come back to tempt or attack them again.

They will also need to start walking in forgiveness, especially if some of the legal rights were them not being able to forgive some of the people who may have abused or hurt them in their past.

2. Start to Establish a Close Personal Relationship with the Lord

Have them start to establish and enter into a close personal relationship with the Lord through direct prayer and fellowship with Him. God has just fully delivered this person from these demons and they should be very thankful and grateful for it, and they thus should want to draw very close to the Lord for what He has just done for them.

You can also lead them direct to this website, as we have many good articles covering all of the main basic areas of the Christian walk.

3. Make Sure They Stay in the Full Surrender With the Lord

Make sure they stay in this full and complete surrender with the Lord for the rest of their earthly lives as explained in our article, “The Full Surrender.” This is a full surrender to the death, not just to the point where they get fully delivered from their demons.

Jesus is not only their personal Savior, but He must now also become their personal Lord from this moment on. Jesus will now be the One to control the direction their lives will now take, not themselves or anyone else in their lives.

4. Start Reading and Studying From the Bible

Tell them to start growing in the knowledge of God and all of His ways by reading and studying from the Bible on some kind of a regular basis. The more of God’s Word they can get in them, the freer and stronger they will become in the Lord over time.

Again, you can lead them to this website, as our site has been set up to help them understand what has been written in the Bible. This site can really help accelerate their learning curve in the Word of God.

5. Join a Good, Spirit-Filled Church

Have them join and connect with a good, Spirit-filled church in their area if by chance they were not connected to a specific church at the time of their deliverance with you.

They will need to get plugged into good teaching and good fellowship with other believers, as the Bible has told us not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together with one another.

6. Set Them Up With a Good Christian Counselor if They Will Need Any Type of Inner Healing

If they still need help with any kind of inner healing, especially from any type of deeper emotional wounds and hurts from their past, try and get them set up with a good Christian counselor who can help work with them to start the inner healing process with the Lord if for some reason you cannot do this with them on your own.

Now that the demons are gone, they should be able to make good and steady progress with a good Christian counselor.

7. Tell Them to Choose Their Friends Very Carefully in This Life

Tell them to look for God to bring in some good, true, God-friends into their lives so they will have other Spirit-filled believers to fellowship with and to share their walk with if they do not have many good God-friends at this time.

When people have demons on the inside of them, sometimes the demons will try and isolate that person over the period of time they are in them so they do not develop many good friendships with other people, especially with other solid Christians.

Also advise them that God is probably going to take out some of the bad and negative people who are still in their lives. If you had them break any ungodly soul ties when you were dealing with their legal rights earlier on, then chances are, God may also want some of those bad people out of their lives for good if that will be at all possible.

It would also be our recommendation that you lead them to our article, “Choose Your Friends Carefully,” in the Bible Basics section of our site for the specific verses on this very important topic. God is now going to start to build them up in Himself and His Word, and He will not be wanting any type of negative influences in their lives trying to stunt their spiritual growth in Him.

The Battle Prayer in its Entirety

Since the above battle prayer was broken up in the different sections I was covering, I will go ahead and put all of the above battle prayer in its complete entirety from start to finish under this caption so you can see exactly how all of it will fit and flow together.

You can also cut and paste this battle prayer into a word document, and then adjust as much of the wording as you want to fit the specific situation that you are dealing with on your end.

1. Prayer to God the Father

“Father,

In the name of Jesus, I now come before You to take on the demons who are now living and operating in John. Father, these demons have now been in John long enough. He has had enough of their torment and bondage and he is now ready to be set fully free from these foul and evil spirits.

Father, in the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, I now ask that You personally anoint me for this battle. Father, in Your Word you have told us that we will have Your power and Your authority to be able to trample over all of the power of the enemy and that nothing shall be able to hurt us.

You have told us in Your Word that no weapon formed against us shall prosper. You have told us in Your Word that we shall cast out demons in Your name. You have told us in Your Word that You are a Man of War and that You can be stirred up to go into battle for us.

Father, I now ask that You stir Yourself up as a Man of War and that You personally take on these demons and drive them right out of this man and right out of his life for good – never again to return to bother, harass, or torment him – ever again! Father, I now ask that You shine Your holy light into every part of John’s being and every part of John’s life so we can see exactly what these demons have been up to with him so we will know how to fully handle this situation with him.

Father, fully expose these demons for what they really are – defeated, fallen angels who fell from Your mercy, love, and grace up in heaven. Father, shed Your holy light on these demons so they cannot run or hide from this deliverance.

Father, show us any additional legal rights during this deliverance that we may not have uncovered earlier on so we will know exactly what we will have to take care of with You.

Father, You have said in Your Word that the Sword of the Holy Spirit is Your Word. Father, in the name of Jesus, I now ask that You let Your Word be my Sword. Father, I repeat, let Your Word be my Sword so that these demons can now be fully driven out of John once and for all.

Father, I now ask that You fully arm me for this battle. I now take up and put on my helmet of salvation, my shield of faith, my breastplate of righteousness, and my Sword of the Holy Spirit so I can now fully operate under Your full anointing against these demons so You can drive and cast all of them out of John once and for all.

Father, I now ask that You allow Your full spiritual armor to be put on me right now in the name of Jesus so I can now do battle against these demons who are on the inside of John.

Father, these demons have now been in John long enough. Father, I now ask that You declare ALL OUT WAR against these demons. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we now ask that You move FULL FORCE against these demons as a mighty Man of War so John can be set fully free from these demons, once and for all.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I now plead the blood of Your Son Jesus Christ over every inch of my body, over every inch of my soul, and over every inch of my spirit so I can now have a full protective covering against these demons.

I now ask that You station your battle angels all around me so they can protect both myself, John, and everyone else who is in this room so no harm will come to any of us during this entire deliverance.

Father, I also ask that You allow the blood of Your Son Jesus to fully protect myself, John, and the rest of the people who are in this room from any of these demons being able to attack any of our personal possessions such as our houses, our cars, our families, our finances,
