Full transcript
- 0:00I want to give you a small teaching.
- 0:02I hear people saying
- 0:04about deliverance, right? And there's a
- 0:06lot of wonderful deliverance ministers
- 0:07out there
- 0:08uh that are very powerful doing
- 0:10deliverance. But the thing I want to
- 0:12share with you today,
- 0:14why would people get delivered?
- 0:17Get set free, and then 6 months later
- 0:19they're back in bondage.
- 0:21Or 3 months later they're back in
- 0:22bondage. The same devil
- 0:25in a different suit shows up, torment,
- 0:28back in shackles, you're back in straw
- 0:30hold, you're back in bondage, you're
- 0:31back in you're back and spiritually
- 0:33incarcerated. And and and then you talk
- 0:36to the you talk to the people say,
- 0:37"Well, I was free. You know, I was free.
- 0:39I got the victory. You know, I was
- 0:41living I was living free. I was I had my
- 0:43I had my deliverance took place. You
- 0:46know, I felt I felt the moment that I
- 0:47was free." And I believe all that. I I
- 0:49from all my heart, I [snorts] believe in
- 0:51my heart that you were set free because
- 0:53the Holy Spirit don't play.
- 0:56Holy Spirit is real.
- 0:57And man, the Holy Spirit set the
- 0:59captives free all day, every day, and
- 1:02the devil can't do nothing about it. But
- 1:04the sad thing about the believer is one
- 1:06thing. Listen to this first before I get
- 1:08into the teaching. And this is the key
- 1:11that the devil doesn't want you to know.
- 1:13You close the door
- 1:15on the devil
- 1:17when you got your freedom and you got
- 1:18your deliverance, but you forgot to lock
- 1:21the door.
- 1:23My mom used to I grew up in the ghetto.
- 1:26I meant to say ghetto
- 1:28I grew up in. And my mom she used to say
- 1:31to my brothers and I, "Did you close the
- 1:33door and locked it?
- 1:35Did you put the locks on the door? Go
- 1:37check the door one more time. Have you
- 1:40locked that door with the locks?"
- 1:43You see, my mom wasn't even concerned
- 1:44about that we closed the door. She
- 1:46wanted to make sure that before we went
- 1:47to bed them locks were on the door. You
- 1:50see? Spiritually, it's the same thing.
- 1:54It's the same thing. Listen, can once
- 1:57can Let me can an evil spirit
- 2:00return after deliverance? Yes. Yes, he
- 2:03can return after deliverance. He can
- 2:06return. How Listen, how we close doors
- 2:10once and for all?
- 2:12Right? Because those doors need
- 2:14In order for you to get into someone's
- 2:16house, someone's apartment, you need a
- 2:18door.
- 2:20So, how does the demon comes into your
- 2:22spiritual space, your spiritual
- 2:24environment? He needs a spiritual door
- 2:26to get in. To get in whether it's
- 2:27bloodline, generational, whether doors
- 2:30you open to the occult, or addictions,
- 2:32or or anything that you that you open
- 2:35the door to. The demon In other words,
- 2:37you I heard I heard I heard uh
- 2:41Oh my god. I You you gave it rights. You
- 2:44gave it permission. You gave it an You
- 2:47gave it the opportunity to come in and
- 2:51and and open the door was open and it's
- 2:54an invitation for the demon to come in.
- 2:56And this is the part, deliverance is not
- 2:59the finish line. We think I got
- 3:01delivered, I'm cool, everything is good.
- 3:03Oh yeah, yeah, I'm good. Yeah, I don't
- 3:05have to do nothing. I'm free. Yes,
- 3:07that's what the demon wants you to
- 3:08believe. He wants you to act on that.
- 3:11Leave your guards down. Don't do nothing
- 3:13about it. I'm walking away. I'm good to
- 3:15go. I'm free. I feel lighter. My head is
- 3:19in the right [snorts] place. My mind is
- 3:20in the right place. Now I can see what
- 3:22God showed me. He delivered me. Yeah,
- 3:24the demon wants you to be on that
- 3:27mindset. But this is the part. Listen,
- 3:30deliverance is not the finish line. It
- 3:32is the starting It is the starting of
- 3:35the
- 3:36It is I will call it the beginning
- 3:38starting of the line of a new season.
- 3:42If I was delivered, God has given me a
- 3:45new season, a starting line to start
- 3:48new. What am I going to do from the
- 3:50starting line that if was delivered
- 3:52from, if I was delivered from here,
- 3:55get it? If I was delivered from here,
- 3:57and these doors would close and lock,
- 3:59and then I now I'm over here. I have I
- 4:02have a new starting line. I'm in I'm in
- 4:06the word called start fresh, fresh
- 4:09season, fresh opportunity, fresh moment
- 4:12in my life. What am I going to seize the
- 4:14moment with that moment of that freedom
- 4:17that God gave me? How am I going to do
- 4:20What am I going to do next? How am I
- 4:21going to live? How am I going to How I
- 4:23want to finish that season? And we get
- 4:26caught up with I'm free, everything's
- 4:28good, it's gone now, I can go back to
- 4:31normal, and I can just go back to it
- 4:33being me. No, listen to this. Once the
- 4:36demon leaves, the house is empty.
- 4:39The house is empty. Now the house is
- 4:41empty. It's Now it's up to you to fill
- 4:45the house. It's up to you to fill the
- 4:47house. It's not
- 4:49Holy Spirit did his job. He He He gave
- 4:52that squatter an eviction notice.
- 4:54Now it's time for you to fill the house,
- 4:57right? Make sure that the house, right?
- 5:01The house don't stay empty. Make sure
- 5:04that the house don't stay empty. You
- 5:06don't stay empty, hollow
- 5:08invitation.
- 5:10Let the demons come back.
- 5:12Listen.
- 5:14The house on Listen, this is what I
- 5:16said. The danger is not the disorder
- 5:18that was going on in your house in your
- 5:20house when when the demons are there.
- 5:22It's not the disorder because Holy
- 5:24Spirit took care of that. The the
- 5:25problem is not it's not the disorder.
- 5:27The danger is to keep it emptiness, to
- 5:29keep the emptiness in your house, right?
- 5:32The emptiness. So So we think that we
- 5:34remove things, we remove things out of
- 5:36the house, but we don't replace it with
- 5:37nothing. That is the key. What are you
- 5:40replacing with things that were removed
- 5:42out of your house? We think that oh,
- 5:44once it's removed, I'm good. No. Remove,
- 5:47yes, replacement. What are you replacing
- 5:49it with?
- 5:51Because you need to lock the door.
- 5:53Not close the door, lock the door. And
- 5:56doors are locked when you replace things
- 5:58in the house.
- 6:00Okay? You replace the empty space must
- 6:02be filled by the Holy Spirit. The Holy
- 6:04Spirit is going to fill that space with
- 6:06you. Okay? Listen, it's not you want to
- 6:09fill the space not with the Holy Spirit.
- 6:11You want to fill the space with
- 6:12emotions.
- 6:15That good feeling, that good vibe. You
- 6:18know, that that good moment. You know,
- 6:20you want to fill the space with time.
- 6:22No, you need to fill the space with the
- 6:23Holy Spirit. The emptiness of your house
- 6:26needs to be filled. Understand? Your
- 6:28your thinking, your mindset. Listen, the
- 6:30state state the mindset can't stay the
- 6:33same because if it stays the same, the
- 6:35door is closed but it's not locked.
- 6:37Understand? The door is closed but it's
- 6:39not locked. You need you need you need
- 6:41you need keep that door unlocked. You
- 6:43need to keep that door locked at all
- 6:44time. Listen, stay the same, the door
- 6:48stays unlocked. Got it? Establish daily
- 6:51submission to the Holy Spirit. That's
- 6:53one weapon how you keep the lock on your
- 6:55door.
- 6:56Submission to the Holy Spirit and daily,
- 6:59every day you submit to the Holy Spirit.
- 7:01When the Holy Spirit tell you, "Don't do
- 7:02this. Don't do that. Don't go that way.
- 7:04Don't watch this. Get off this internet.
- 7:07Get off this social media." You know,
- 7:10"Don't listen to this. Don't talk this
- 7:12way. Don't act this way." See, those
- 7:14those are the those are the things that
- 7:16the enemy will use in order to create a
- 7:18case against you. Robin Henderson was
- 7:21saying that the other day. He was on on
- 7:23my on my inner circle. The the the case
- 7:26that that that that that the demonic
- 7:28world, the demon is trying to create to
- 7:30come back because they know the door is
- 7:32closed but it's not locked. So, listen.
- 7:35Listen, it
- 7:36it is submission. It's not a moment.
- 7:39It's not why I submit to the Holy Spirit
- 7:40now. Yeah, I submit to the Holy Spirit.
- 7:42No, submission is a lifestyle.
- 7:46That is a lifestyle. That's what you
- 7:48need to focus on. How my life is going
- 7:50to be from here on after I got my
- 7:51delivery. I have to make it a new
- 7:53lifestyle in my life, not a moment
- 7:56thing, a lifestyle thing in your life to
- 7:58keep that door locked and closed.
- 8:00Listen, I submit The Bible says, "Submit
- 8:02to God and resist the devil."
- 8:06Submission A lot of us got problem with
- 8:08submission.
- 8:10When Holy Spirit said, "Don't watch
- 8:11Don't watch that." You still watch it.
- 8:14When Holy Spirit said, "Don't talk that
- 8:15way." You still talk that way. When the
- 8:17Holy Spirit said, "Don't say that." You
- 8:18still say it. When Holy Spirit said,
- 8:21"Keep your mouth shut. Don't go to
- 8:22social media and put your business on
- 8:23social media." Do you know what that's
- 8:25called? Self-control.
- 8:28And you still doing it anyway. But I got
- 8:29to defend myself. I got to prove my
- 8:31point. I got to let them know what time
- 8:33it is.
- 8:34Really?
- 8:35So, what the devil's doing? He's
- 8:37building a case against you.
- 8:39And the door that you thought that was
- 8:41locked, it was just closed, but it was
- 8:42never locked. Listen,
- 8:45build a new mindset
- 8:48in your life. Build a new mindset. Build
- 8:50a new mindset, new thinking, new words,
- 8:52new thoughts in your mind. That's how
- 8:54you replace the old thinking, the old
- 8:57patterns. You know that the demon come
- 8:59back not only for the person, but he
- 9:02comes back after old patterns.
- 9:05The demon recognize old patterns of your
- 9:07life that you never change. So, he's not
- 9:09coming back just for you, but he knows
- 9:11that the he's detected that he he he he
- 9:15he's like a radar knowing that the that
- 9:17that you don't have new patterns in your
- 9:19life. You still got the old patterns in
- 9:21your life. So, he comes back and he
- 9:23knows that the comfortability in your
- 9:25life has not changed and he knows he
- 9:28recognize the old patterns and those are
- 9:31the windows and the doors and the
- 9:32opportunity that he used to come back
- 9:34into your house.
- 9:36Oh, John, that's good. Let me hallelujah
- 9:37myself right now. Hold on. Hallelujah,
- 9:39John. Thank you. You don't have to
- 9:41hallelujah me on that one cuz I got it.
- 9:44Okay? Listen, spending time in the word,
- 9:47and I finish with this.
- 9:49Spending time in the word and spending
- 9:51time with God, listen.
- 9:54In the word of God, spending time in the
- 9:56word of God, it is the broom
- 10:00that sweeps your house.
- 10:03Spending time in the word of God,
- 10:06it is the broom that sweeps your house.
- 10:12And the demon don't have to return to
- 10:15old patterns
- 10:16cuz you have changed the channel on
- 10:18them.
- 10:19And they're so confused
- 10:21to come back to to repeats and cycles of
- 10:24patterns of repeat.
- 10:26Understand?
- 10:28This is This is so
- 10:31Listen. Listen to this. Listen to this
- 10:33part and I finish with this.

- 10:44You want your house to be clean?
- 10:47Spend time with the word of God. That is
- 10:49the broom that cleans the house.
- 10:52And then you And then change the old
- 10:54patterns
- 10:55and make new ones.
- 10:57Remove The things that were removed need
- 11:00to be replaced.
- 11:01Got it? The things that were removed
- 11:04need to be replaced in your life.
- 11:06So, the devil can't look for old
- 11:08patterns in your life because the
- 11:09channel has been changed on him.
- 11:12So, you have the last laugh, not the
- 11:14devil. And the last thing, fill the
- 11:16house with the Holy Spirit and guard the
- 11:19door.
- 11:20And you will live in victory, and no
- 11:22demons will never return.
- 11:24I was 25 years in the demonic world.
- 11:27I was full of demons.
- 11:30And I was full with demons and
- 11:32ceremonies in my body for 25 years of my
- 11:34life from the age of eight to the age of
- 11:3735. And those demons don't know my
- 11:40address anymore.
- 11:42They don't know my address anymore
- 11:44because I don't have old patterns.
- 11:47I swept the house with the word of God.
- 11:50I filled the house with the Holy Spirit
- 11:52and I guard the door in Jesus mighty
- 11:55name. Let that be your story
- 11:57and you see how you live a life of
