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 come. And when he comes he finds it

he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of
that man is worse than the first So shall it also be with this wicked
generation.” MATTHEW 12:43-45

WE MUST DEAL ALWAYS WITH THE STRONGMAN
- EVIL SPIRIT
“Or
else how can one enter a strong man`s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will
plunder his house.” MATTHEW 12:29
There are twelve strong men in the Bible. To each is connection with demons.
Demons
can be cast out, but when the strongman is inside, they will come back, and the
condition of the man is worse than before. We must deal with the Strongman
first.
First
Strong man in the Bible is in NUMBERS 5: 11 –
1.
Spirit of Jealousy.
When
there is a suspicion about anything there is the spirit of Jealousy.
PROVERBS

will nor spare anybody under suspicion. Revenge is demon, but Jealousy is
Strongman.
Murder
is demon, rage is demon, competition is demon but Jealousy is the Spirit.
2.
Spirit of Lying - II
CHRONICLES 18: 22, JEREMIAH 23: 14
“They
commit adultery and walk in lies.” Adultery
is a demon from Spirit of Lying.
“They
all of them like Sodom.” It
is Spirit of homosexuality. Sodomy is connected.
Spirit
of Lies is the Strongman. There is the curse upon the lies. Profanity is bound
by Lying Spirit. Vanity is connected to the Spirit of Lies. Hypocrisy is also
from this.
If
you want to be really free - you should deal with the Lying Spirit. The same
Lying Spirit is in church as a Spirit of Religion. Continually condemning
others, standing higher than others, isolate themselves, only his group is
right, continually accuse you,
They
jump from church to church. Everybody is wrong; you can never win with them.
Everytime you talk, they always talk back with lies and untruth. Just avoid
them.

to God. People who try to pray, but can`t break through because they are bound
by Spirit of Bondage. They cannot call God Father. They cannot say Father in
Jesus` Name. They have no feeling for fellowship. In the Bondage is found anguish,
bitterness, all types of addiction to drugs, to cigarettes, to alcohol.

always should deal with the Strongman and bind them in the Name of Jesus. In
MATTHEW 12:29 Jesus said very clearly to religious Pharisees’:
“Or
else how can one enter the strong man`s house and plunder his goods, unless he
first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.”
