Demons & Deliverance Part 1
About this sermon
In “Demons & Deliverance Part 1,” Pastor Dean Odle presents a Scripture-centered message about demons and deliverance, Satanic opposition, the condition of the church. Drawing especially from Matthew 17, Matthew 8:16-17, Luke 11, Luke 13, the teaching emphasizes that demonic influence must be answered through Christ’s authority and the freedom He provides. Odle connects that foundation with the conviction that Satan’s work is described through deception, accusation, temptation, and opposition to God’s purposes.

Heat. Heat. [Music] And the glory of the Lord is filling this [Music] place. Heat. Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat up here. Heat up [Music] here. Heat up here. [Music] Praise you Lord Jesus. Father, we just come to you this morning in the mighty name, the name above every name, the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. We thank you for your power, Lord. We thank you for your presence. We thank you for your shed blood on the cross that not only gives us forgiveness of sin, healing, but also deliverance, power against Satan and the demons. We thank you for that,

Lord. God, I pray in Jesus name today that you'll give everyone ears to hear and hearts to understand. I pray for the spirit of wisdom and revelation to come upon everyone here, upon everyone watching and listening. We pray God that there would be understanding to understand the scriptures, the truth, and to know the truth that will set them free. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. And amen. You may be seated this morning. Hallelujah. We welcome you to Fire and Grace Church this morning. Um going to start a new series I believe today going back over for some of you that have been here for a while. We're going back over territory that we have covered before though there will be some new things involved. But today I'm starting a series on demons and deliverance. demons and deliverance. Um, even if you have been in our church or you're familiar with our ministry and you've listened to some of the teaching and training on this subject, I would uh encourage you to do so again and take good notes and pay close attention because it is important if you've already been through deliverance and you've been set free, it's important for you to understand that uh there's maintenance involved and also you need to get these scriptures and the understanding and the teaching down in your heart so that you can share it with other people because Jesus came first, he said, and we'll we'll throw that verse up here in just a moment, but uh Jesus came to preach deliverance to the captives. So part of the gospel message is not just that Jesus came to die for your sins, but that Jesus came to set you free and to teach you how to be free from the possession and oppression of the enemy of Satan and his demon spirits. So uh it's not showing up well, but anyway, demons and deliverance this morning is what we're going to call this. Um, I want to draw your attention to a couple of articles just so you can see that the world is beginning to take notice that uh there are supernatural entities in this world that are influencing people. And yes, I'm going to use the term possessing people, controlling people, influencing people. uh and and we'll get into the definitions of all those words, but this was uh this is the UK Daily Mail, May 18th, 2016, so just year ago. And it says 80 children treated in hospital after outbreak of demonic possession in Peruvian school where people say they had visions of a man in black trying to kill them. And uh I'm not going to play the video this morning because we have some children and some young children. It's
- 0:06:00
quite disturbing. Um when you see what was going on and it wasn't a show. Um, there was obviously something very spiritual going on, very demonic and very evil going on when 80 children are passing out, growling um, on the floor, foaming at the mouth, being rendered unconscious in in terror and fear. Um, I think just by the way they were dressed, it looked like a Roman Catholic parochial school. If that's the fact, then I know why they were wide open to demonic attack. But uh here's another one. This was again the UK Daily Mail. This was from June 2014. And I remember talking about this one back then, but these were uh three American friends who were down in living down in Mexico uh hospitalized after becoming possessed following a Ouija board game in Mexican Village. Um, it says, what is it? Alexandra uh, Erta, 22, reported playing with the Ouija board in Mexican Village, joined by her brother Sergio, 23, and 18-year-old cousin Fernando. Somebody help me with that. What? We uh, but minutes into the game, the trio appeared uh, and started apparently started acting like they were in a translike state and growling. and Alexandra began growling while her relatives were suffering hallucinations. Players were taken to the hospital and were treated with painkillers. Now, all these all these articles you can go find for yourself. You can read them. I could do articles all day long. Uh here's one more. Um this one was quite disturbing. Distressing footage shows possessed girl 15 thrashing around and growling as pastors are called to perform exorcism. Now, I want to say this to all of you and those maybe who are new to our ministry, who will be watching, listening or watching today or or after the fact. Um, 30 years of ministry, ever since the beginning, day one almost, God has had me dealing with demons in people and casting demons out of people. My first convert, the first person I ever led to Jesus was a witch, Satanist. And um after she accepted Jesus, I saw this teenage girl uh manifest demons, growling, speaking with a male voice out of her mouth. Wasn't her speaking. It wasn't her face contorting. And uh I remember when I commanded the demon to tell me its name. And it screamed so hard, so loud that you probably could have heard this voice from a mile away. But she she screamed, but it was a man voice coming out of her. And it
- 0:09:00
screamed, "My name is Legion." And I knew, "Oh boy, we got a we got a whole host of demons in this in this girl." So this is something that I've experienced for myself many many many times over many years from children up to adults of all ages. I have seen demonic possession oppression which you're going to find is the same thing and um had to cast the demons out of them in the name of Jesus. And you know, just for you Torah observers, I just want to let you know that I never used the name Yeshua. I always used the name Jesus, and it worked just fine. So, uh, I've seen demons lead people for 30 years in the name of Jesus. I've seen the sick healed, the crippled walk, the deaf here. I've seen cancer disappear. And I've seen many, many, many, many, many tormented, oppressed, controlled people that are controlled by demons set free. So, this is not something that I speak about simply because I read a book or I read an article in the news. I've lived this and walked this for 30 years. Now, all of you remember this. I want to share this event that happened. Here's another. Everybody remember back in uh 2007 when this young man went on a shooting rampage at Virginia Tech University, killed 32 people uh and then of course including himself. Um his mother, I didn't know this until just recently, but his mother knew that her son had a demon or had demons. In fact, she was a Christian and she had sought help uh in the summer of 2006. She asked 10 churches to deliver him from demons and all refused. Now, this is the sad state of the church. Jesus cast demons out of people all the time. And in fact, well, the verses you're going to see is Jesus was doing this all the time. The thing about it is is everybody goes, "Well, that was Jesus." Well, no. Jesus said that the church when he went ascended to heaven after he died on the cross for our sins and rose from the dead he said the church he said now you're going to do it what I did you do you're supposed to go do it and this is where I think the church I don't think I know but the vast majority of the church has completely failed because instead of casting demons out of people we send them to psychiatrists or counselors or therapy and put them on drugs. Now, that's what churches do. And if a church does that, I'm just going to say this. If a church doesn't cast demons out of people, then I'm going to show you a weak and empty church. They're in disobedience and they're powerless. And the devil's going to be running rampant. And the only thing they can do with their people is send them to secular, worldly counselors
