The Rules of Engagement

Become proficient in the mechanics of binding and loosing. Binding and loosing is a way to control satanic activities. When we are born, we do not know how to do anything. Over time, we learn to roll over, sit up, crawl, walk, and run. Even if you have no experience in binding or loosing prayer and work, you can become proficient at it through practice, study, and training. Remember, you have to start crawling before you walk and run. Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house. —Matthew 12:29 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. —Matthew 18:18 Binding and loosing is like drawing up contracts that must be adhered to in the realm of the spirit. As it relates to demonic forces and activities, binding immobilizes demonic activities by imposing or commanding adher ence to a specific alternative directive. Loosing is the opposite of binding. It extricates, discharges, and releases demonic forces from specific directive or obligatory activity. Since Matthew 18:18 seems to indicate that binding and loosing are inextricably connected, then we must consider binding and loosing as a single key. If you are going to bind, you must loose; if you are going to loose, you must bind. You cannot use one without the other. The question I’m most frequently asked is, What do I bind, and what do I loose? Simply put, you bind the activities of Satan and his cohorts; you loose any effect that their presence has had, and then you release the kingdom (God’s divine rule) counterpart. The devil has no choice in the matter but to relinquish his position. When Jesus administered deliverance to people there was evidence that not only was the strongman and spirit gone, but the effects of their presence were gone as well.
