Mass Deliverance Manual

appeal to me too much. Well I didn’t understand how that fit in the scheme of things, so we began to use the first part of the verse and we bound them in Jesus’ Name and, of course, the binding worked and it will work for you. And that’s good and most people, most believers who know anything about, I’ve talked to them across the country, and I say, “do you know about binding and loosing,” when they are telling me about a problem. I say, “do you know how to bind and loose,” and they say, “oh yes, I bind Satan every day.” Well I doubt that does a whole lot of good. I mean that’s like saying I bind the sun to keep it from rising almost. I doubt that we can bind Satan. He is a pretty good sized adversary in the first place and besides that if we just bind him we’re just kind of scatter shotting. We need to get more specific and bind the agents through whom he works. He’s off up in the heavenlies running his universe and directing it. He does this through principalities, powers, thrones, dominions, world rulers, kings, princes, thrones, dominions, all of those sort of things. And you remember Paul said we wrestle not with flesh and blood but with Satan. Did he? No he didn’t. He said we wrestle not with flesh and blood but we do wrestle with principalities, powers, thrones, dominions, world rulers, kings and princes, and so I think when you start binding, start binding on that level and I think you’ll get some results and rather quickly. Now the demonic world does not want the truth of binding and loosing to get out, that’s for sure, and a lot of people when they talk about binding and loosing, they’re just talking about binding Satan. “Oh yes, I bind Satan every day.” I’ve seldom seen anybody who got much help that way. Then others have gone a little further and they say, “well I bind the demons every day.” Now you’re getting close, now you start binding specific spirits, then you’re getting close to the heart of things and that will work. But you’re only doing half of it you see. That’s good as far as it goes; it’s just not the whole show. Well we went along for months, I don’t know, maybe years, and we were battling the enemy and successfully binding these spirits, hindering or choking off their activities, to the place where people could get relief and help and even deliverance by using the binding powers that we had and yet we pondered about “whatsoever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Then there came a day when I was studying, and I ran across, I was reading a book on deliverance. It was a rather poor book so I won’t even mention its name. It’s not worth reading. I read a lot of books that are not that good, but I look through them anyway. But the book did say one thing that was of value. This one thing was that they were
