Let Us Alone! The Cry of Demons

Chapter 3 3 Little By Little—Progressive Deliverance And the Lord thy God will put out those nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee. Deuteronomy 7:22 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land. Exodus 23:29,30 ome argue that true deliverance should not take long. It should be quick and instantaneous. These two verses show us the principle of progressive deliverance. The Lord drove the nations out of Canaan little by little. The fleshly enemies of Israel represent our spiritual enemies. The Lord desired Israel to increase numerically first before He would drive out their enemies. The Lord was concerned about how much land they could possess and maintain. Our deliverance is proportionate to how we grow in the things of the Lord. The process is often little by little. S Unless you understand this principle you will become weary in praying for some people; and you may even become discouraged in your own deliverance. There are certain areas of our lives in which the Lord will deliver us at certain times. He knows which areas are ready to receive cleansing, and He knows the timing involved. Don't be deceived into thinking
