Key Takeaways

1. God's Commission: Liberate the World from Satan's Oppression

Now the hour has come to liberate the world from all oppressions of the devil, through the preaching of the Word of faith.

Divine mandate received. The author recounts a powerful 18-hour vision in 1981 where he witnessed immense suffering and heard God commission him to liberate the world from the devil's oppressions through the Word of faith. This vision revealed that suffering and evil were not God's original plan for humanity. Anything less than "very good," as declared at creation, is not the believer's heritage.

Restoring original nature. God's purpose is to restore humanity to its original state of "very good" in health, career, relationships, and all aspects of life. The commission is to declare this truth and see every oppression of the devil give way. The author is sent to see tears turn to joy, barrenness end, poverty explode into wealth, and troubled homes find peace.

Total liberty is available. This divine assignment empowers the author to bring the good news that the battle with Satan is finished. Believers can walk into total liberty from sickness, frustration, reproach, and shame. Only what God cannot do will remain in a believer's life after embracing this truth, and we know nothing is too difficult for God.

2. Satan is a Defeated Enemy, Not Your Problem

Your enemy is the devil! Not that witch, nor that herbalist, nor that colleague in your office.

Identify the true enemy. Many people mistakenly blame human beings, bad luck, or ancestral curses for their problems, but the Bible clearly identifies the devil as the sole adversary (1 Peter 5:8). The devil actively works to keep people from recognizing him as the enemy, knowing that identification is key to victory. God, for those born again, is a loving Father with good thoughts, never the source of misfortune.

Satan's origin and mission. God did not create Satan as evil; he was a perfect, high-ranking angel until iniquity was found in him, leading to his violent expulsion from heaven (Ezekiel 28:12-15, Revelation 12:7-9). Since then, he has been anti-God, constantly fighting against God's plans and people. His three-fold mission is to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10).

He is a finished devil. The devil is not omnipresent or all-powerful; he is a master deceiver who has given himself names that don't belong to him. The early Church was fully aware of his devices and did not see him as a force to be reckoned with. He is nothing but a finished devil, a toothless bulldog with no legal power to hurt believers who understand his true, powerless state.

3. Jesus Fixed Satan and Stripped Him of All Power

Jesus fixed Satan!

Victory at Calvary. The death and resurrection of Jesus at Calvary was the ultimate event that secured man's deliverance from Satan's bondage. Jesus took the place of man, bearing sin, sickness, poverty, and every evil thing (Isaiah 53:4-5). When He declared "It is finished," He completed the battle against sin and difficulties.

Descent into hell. Jesus' sacrifice required Him to go to hell, the consequence of sin, to complete the work of redemption (Isaiah 53:9, Acts 2:25-27). In hell, He confronted the devil on his own ground, cemented our victory, and sealed the devil's doom. He took the keys of hell and death, rose victoriously, and openly spoiled, defeated, and stripped principalities and powers of all their power (Revelation 1:18, Colossians 2:15, Hebrews 2:14).

All power belongs to Jesus. Romans 13:1 and Psalm 62:11 confirm that all power belongs to God. Jesus boldly declared after His resurrection, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth" (Matthew 28:18). This means no power is left for the devil, witches, wizards, occultists, or governments to stop believers. The devil is merely a roaring lion, not a real one, relying on noise and tricks because he has no power.

4. Understand Your Divine Identity and Position in Christ

I have said, YE ARE gODS; and all of you are children of the most High.

New creation reality. Through Christ's redemptive work, believers become new creations, not modified versions of the old self (2 Corinthians 5:17). This new status grants entrance into God's class, making them accepted in the beloved, righteous, and real sons of God (John 1:12). They receive God's nature, life, Spirit, faith, and love, restoring their original place of authority and dominion lost in Adam.

Translated into God's kingdom. At salvation, believers are delivered from the power of darkness and translated into the kingdom of God's dear Son (Colossians 1:13). This kingdom is one of light, where Satan has no access or right to prevail (Revelation 12:7-9). Believers are no longer under the devil's domain and should walk in the consciousness of dwelling in heavenly places, out of Satan's reach.

Peculiar and above all. Believers are peculiar treasures, bought with the precious blood of the Lamb, belonging to royalty, a holy nation chosen to show forth God's praises (1 Peter 2:9-10a). Coming from above, they are above everything on earth – failure, disease, poverty, life's threats (John 3:31, Ephesians 2:6). They are born winners, destined for exploits, with God committed to their success and a "touch-not" decree protecting them (Genesis 12:3, Zechariah 2:8-9).

5. Satan Operates Through Tricks, Deception, and Fear

He is nothing but a master-deceiver.

Subtlety is his weapon. Having lost all power, Satan relies entirely on tricks, wiles, and devices to overthrow faith (2 Corinthians 2:11, Ephesians 6:11). Genesis 3:1 reveals his nature as the most subtle creature. He is not a mighty challenger in strength but in cunning deception, capable of deceiving even the elect (Matthew 24:24). Dealing with him requires wisdom, not just fasting or physical strength.

Common wiles exposed. Satan employs various tricks:

  • Misinterpreting circumstances (e.g., seeing blood during pregnancy as miscarriage).
  • Promoting a "suffering-mentality" contrary to Christ's easy yoke (Matthew 11:29).
  • Questioning the authenticity and simplicity of God's Word ("Hath God said...?" - Genesis 3:1, 2 Corinthians 11:3).
  • Using the deceitfulness of sin to make people displease God and become vulnerable (Hebrews 3:13).
  • Whispering "That's too simple!" to make believers doubt the gospel's power (Mark 4:15).
  • Suggesting "There's a faster way out" to rush people into wrong decisions (Habakkuk 2:3).

Roaring and accusing. The devil roars like a lion, not because he is one, but to instill fear and paralyze initiative (1 Peter 5:8, Job 3:25). Fear is a trap that brings what is feared. He is also the accuser of the brethren, constantly pointing out past sins or perceived failures to weaken confidence (Revelation 12:10). Believers must resist these tactics by knowing the truth and refusing to give place to fear or accusation.

6. Guard Your Mind: It's the Battleground and Victory Ground

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

Mind is the primary target. The mind is a crucial asset, the eye of the man, shaping life and determining one's state (Proverbs 4:23). Satan's main target is the mind; if he captures it, he has the person. Carnal-mindedness leads to death, while spiritual-mindedness brings life and peace (Romans 8:6). The enemy cannot reach a believer except through the mind.

Mental captivity and pollution. Satan blinds the minds of unbelievers to the gospel's light (2 Corinthians 4:4) and seeks to pollute believers' minds, making them argue against God's Word or lose their sense of value (Matthew 16:23, Luke 22:3). He uses occurrences and situations to challenge faith, reminding people of problems or negative pronouncements. Many remain mentally captive to past words or circumstances.

Renewing the mind. Believers need a fresh baptism of mind-renewal, building a mental picture of a glorious life based on God's promises (Ephesians 4:23, Romans 12:2). This involves flushing the mind with God's Word, developing a spiritual perspective, and casting down imaginations that exalt themselves against the knowledge of God (Philippians 4:8, 2 Corinthians 10:5). Right expectations, based on God's Word, bring peace and prevent anxiety.

7. Walk Out on the Devil by Releasing Your Faith and Knowing the Word

...and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

Faith is the weapon. Afflictions are forms of imprisonment by the devil, but believers can walk out on him because Jesus broke every fetter (Luke 13:16). The warfare is not physical; the weapons are spiritual, mighty through God (2 Corinthians 10:3-4). Faith is the victory that overcomes the world (1 John 5:4). The quality of a believer's life and victory is directly tied to their faith.

Faith is a fortress. Faith is the shield that quenches the devil's fiery darts (Ephesians 6:16). If faith is active, the devil is in a danger zone; he cannot get a believer until he gets their faith. Believers must walk by faith, not by sight, refusing to magnify problems based on physical senses (2 Corinthians 5:7). Releasing faith is essential for personal victory in all difficulties.

Knowledge empowers faith. Ignorance destroys God's people (Hosea 4:6). Knowing God's Word makes believers wiser than their enemies (Psalm 119:98). The Word carries divine nature and wisdom, too high for the devil to comprehend (1 Corinthians 2:8, John 1:5). When God's Word comes alive in a believer, it empowers them to resist the devil with authority, declaring "It is written..." and forcing him to flee (James 4:7, Luke 4:1-13).

8. Exercise Your Divine Authority Through Prophetic Utterances

It’s time to speak out the way you want things to be and see heaven establish your decree.

Authority is given. Jesus has all power in heaven and earth and has given believers power to tread on serpents, scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy (Matthew 28:18-19, Luke 10:19). This power is working inside believers, enabling them to overcome because the greater One is in them (1 John 4:4). Believers are power-carriers, products of the Omnipotent God.

Prophesy your destiny. Nothing happens on its own; things are made to happen by exercising divine authority. Believers must loose the creative forces of God within them by speaking out what they want to see, based on God's promises (Job 22:28). The Bible is the believer's book of destiny, and they must contend before mountains, letting the hills hear their voice (Micah 6:1).

Power in the mouth. There is great power in the believer's mouth, a deposit of creative power released through speaking (Luke 21:15). When God's Word is spoken boldly in faith, it mobilizes angels into action (Psalm 18:44-45, Ecclesiastes 5:6). What is spoken gives God something to confirm, forces enemies to give up, and instructs angels. A closed mouth leads to a closed life; bold declaration is key to victory and destiny.

9. Leverage Spiritual Instruments: Mantle, Oil, Blood, and Communion

God has prepared His manifold wisdom for the last days and we are walking in it already.

Manifold wisdom revealed. God's eternal purpose is to make known His complicated, many-sided wisdom through the Church, humiliating principalities and powers (Ephesians 3:8-11). This wisdom is revealed through spiritual instruments that carry God's virtue and power. These instruments are like Aaron's rod, swallowing up the rods of the magicians (Exodus 7:10-12).

Instruments of power:

  • The Mantle: Material touched by the anointed carries transferable unction and God's virtue, producing signs and wonders (2 Kings 2:12-14, Acts 19:11-12). It's God working through the prophet's garment or handkerchief.
  • The Anointing Oil: A mystery where the Spirit of God is mysteriously put in a bottle to communicate God's power bodily (James 5:14-15, 1 Samuel 16:13). It's God's standard against enemy invasion, destroying sickness, bondage, and discomforts (Isaiah 59:19, Mark 6:12-13).
  • The Blood of Jesus: God's last card, the ultimate devastating weapon against Satan (Revelation 12:11). It's the stronghold for freedom from corruption (Zechariah 9:11-12). Pleading the blood activates a "Passover" effect and provides a continuous covering in Zion (Hebrews 12:24).
  • The Communion: Partaking of Jesus' flesh and blood renews eternal life, infusing God's life into the believer (John 6:51-57). It's the ultimate drug, making believers spiritually indestructible and immune to sickness. It's a hospital, theatre, and prescription from the Great Physician (Acts 2:46, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26).

Appropriate and apply. These instruments are not rituals but realities, carriers of mysterious virtue and divine energy. Believers must embrace their significance, apply them in faith, and provoke God's virtue through obedience. Ignorance prevents their effectiveness; understanding and application are key to humiliating Satan and walking in absolute freedom.

10. Testimonies Prove Satan's Humiliation and Your Victory

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony...

Evidence of God's power. Testimonies are authentic proofs that Satan is a finished devil and that God's manifold wisdom is being displayed through the Church (Revelation 12:11, Ephesians 3:10). They are unquestionable evidences of Satan's powerlessness and the veracity of God's Word at work in believers' lives. These stories demonstrate that God is actively confirming His Word with signs following.

Diverse victories showcased. The book includes numerous examples of God's power humiliating Satan in various areas:

  • Death Disgraced: A man certified dead in a hospital brought back to life and healed using a mantle and anointing oil. A child unconscious for seven days revived through prayer and praise.
  • AIDS Victims Healed: Individuals diagnosed with AIDS healed through faith, anointing oil, and the Word, with medical reports confirming their freedom.
  • Mad People Healed: Individuals suffering from long-term madness instantly delivered and restored to sanity through the application of the mantle and anointing oil.
  • Physical Ailments Vanquished: Hernias disappearing after resisting the devil with the Word and applying anointing oil, sometimes after years of suffering and failed medical interventions.

Supernatural results in daily life. Testimonies also cover victories over mental dullness (GCE scores dramatically improving after anointing a pen and declaring results), broken marriages restored through forgiveness and covenant understanding, bondage of joblessness broken through faith and prophetic acts, and the spirit of poverty destroyed through covenant giving and divine intervention leading to financial breakthroughs. These proofs encourage believers to exercise their authority and walk in their victory.
