The Demons Raging Behind “Cancel Culture”

By Phyllis Tarbox

Cancel Culture is an epidemic running rampant today, trying to erase people and history. It is a movement where a person or group becomes the judge, jury, and prosecutor without a fair trial.

What is the spiritual threat of Cancel Culture? Here is a clue: it has to do with one of God’s most excellent tools to overcome the enemy. [Read more…]

Disable Demonic Torment During Family Gatherings

By Phyllis Tarbox

demonic torment familyDo demons manipulate your holidays at family gatherings?
Do your family members quickly ignite with anger because of old resentments?
Are you already dreading a rerun of last year’s drama?

You are not alone!

Many clients come in for family counseling after all the holiday meltdowns. Feeling helpless in your own home is not an option this year. It’s time to rise and use your authority, and with God, it is not that difficult.

Your marriage and family did not get to this warzone overnight. Still, there are some actions you can take now to disrupt the plans of the enemy that sabotage your holidays.

God gave us the keys when Jesus said to Peter:

“I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.” (Matt. 16:19)

In other words, you can bind demons and loose the fruits of Holy Spirit and interrupt the plans of hell.

How to Interrupt a Demonic Agenda

Let’s start with some ground rules. First, you want to use the key of binding and loosing as an offensive strategy before entering your family gatherings. If you wait, demons will compromise your battleplan by getting a hook in your flesh with anger or resentment. Next, never bind and loose in front of the person. When you speak the name of a demon out loud in the person’s presence manifesting, they amplify.

  1. Before you walk into any gathering, ask God to fill you with His love. Visualize yourself walking into Him; as you abide in the presence of the Holy Spirit, his character will overtake you. Ask God to anoint your head with oil, so no weapon formed against you can prosper. Love is the only weapon that will put hot coals on the enemy’s head. The demonic realm is using your family to lure you into battle.
  2. Bind demonic spirits and loose the Holy Spirit. On your way to the gathering, bind the demons in individuals that cause the contention.

    “I bind in (Name) every spirit of (anger, resentment, lying, mocking, pride, self-pity, depression, selfishness, etc.) and I loose on (Name) the fruits of the Holy Spirit (love, peace, joy, goodness, kindness, gentleness, patience, truth, etc.) in the name of Jesus Christ.”

    If the dreaded family drama still erupts, excuse yourself and retreat to the bathroom and quietly pray out loud:

    “I bind every manifesting spirit from operating through (names) right now with the blood of Jesus Christ, and I call forth the fruit of the Holy Spirit of Love, Joy, Peace….upon them now in Jesus’ mighty name.”

    Binding and loosing are our kingdom keys to use. Remember, you are not casting the spirits out; you are binding them for a short period. This plan will interrupt the flow of demonic torment and allow the restoration of peace.

  3. Bind word cursing spirits from using the mouths of others. Pray; “In the name and blood of Jesus Christ, I bind any word cursing spirits of death from using (name) mouth, and I silence those spirits now in Jesus’s name. Instead, I loose words of life to flow from (name) mouth now in the name of Jesus Christ.”

Do this as an offensive move before entering conversations with family members that are negative or gossip. What you may find is that they have nothing to say. Life and death, blessings and curses are in the power of the tongue. Prov. 18:21

These action items, if applied correctly in faith, can bring positive change to your holidays. Be hopeful and persistent, and you will reap a harvest of peace that will be long remembered.

Declare Healing and Expect It to Manifest: A Personal Testimony

By Don Ibbitson

declare healing manifest We teach our clients about the power of the tongue and that taming and retraining it (for many) becomes a powerful tool for new victories in their life.

I saw this play out personally with my wife, and I hope this will encourage you.

Years ago, she hurt her lower back. I can’t remember the details, but her pain was enough for her to seek medical help. She could not get comfortable lying down, and there were some nights that she fell asleep while standing and bending over our kitchen counter. [Read more…]

COVID-19’s Top Demonic Teammates

By Phyllis Tarbox

covid demonicHordes of demons are ravaging our country using the COVID-19 Quarantine as an official invitation.

The stakes are high. As heaven gets closer, demons are frantically harassing souls to capture them quickly for the kingdom of darkness or disable them from their purpose.

As believers, our souls cannot be possessed. However, demons can rent space through your agreements and create strongholds to keep you from God’s plan for your life.

Like any good strategist, Satan has a well-crafted plan to deconstruct the assembling of the saints and remove your religious freedom.

Hebraically, the year 5780 (our 2020) was the year of the mouth. It was a year intended to release the roar of the lion of Judah. Instead, the demonic realm found a way to cover our mouths and shut down the roar with face masks. The devils are mocking us!

I recently put a meme up on Facebook that pictured an ice cream truck with the writing “Liver and Onions-The Year 2020.” Suffice to say 2020 was not what we expected! But God!

None of this surprises God. His plans will reign, but we have a part to play. God has given us authority over everything that has life in this realm.

Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and  multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Gen 1:28 (NKJV)

Knowledge is power. What you can see and understand cannot hurt you. Here is a list of the top COVID-19 demonic allies.

Covid-19’s Demonic Team 

  1. Anxiety and Depression- This tag-team opens the door for the rest. I used to call them the Christmas Proverb (12:25) spirits, but they want to be here year-round.
    Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression. But a good word makes it glad. (Proverbs 12:25 NKJV)
  1. Isolation, Self Pity, and Loneliness- These teammates spur weariness in the waiting that keeps your promises for 2020 at a distance. They isolate and intoxicate with self- pity. They invite the next team.
  1. Apathy, Hopelessness, and Death– I just wrote about this team in a recent blog. This team gets you to quit and say things like, “I can’t do this anymore.” They overwhelm you with hopelessness to bring death to your dreams.
  1. Pride, Anger, and Rage- This team loves social media. Pride tells us our opinions are right, so anger and rage can divide relationships and further isolate us.
  1. Rejection, Abandonment, and Suicide- The demonic realm always comes to kill, steal, and destroy. Suicide rates are soaring, and rejection is at the root of this evil.

The enemy is prowling around like a lion to devour. It is time to release the roar of the Lion of Judah. It is time to shout, “The ruling spirit is the Holy Spirit, and God’s will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”

If you sense any of these demonic agendas halting your kingdom plan, we are only one intake form away.

Let’s regroup and make the devils regret trying to mute us!
