Pastor Timothy Tomlinson opened by welcoming listeners to the weekly Free Deliverance Service, aiming to teach powerful biblical secrets for defeating demonic attacks. Drawing from 15 years of deliverance ministry experience, Pastor Tomlinson was convinced of the reality of spiritual warfare but also the limitless power of Jesus to break strongholds and set captives free. He felt led to focus on King David's proven spiritual warfare strategies that enable believers to walk in victory.
Pastor Tomlinson first established the biblical reality of an adversary named Satan who commands fallen angels called demons. Seeking to devour believers, this enemy utilizes deception, temptation, torment and affliction. However, through faith in Christ's victory on the cross, believers have authority over all the enemy's power.
The presentation then covered how Jesus fully disarmed and defeated Satan at the cross, meaning the devil is a defeated foe. As born again followers of Christ, we wield the same resurrection power and authority as Jesus to crush spiritual attacks. In addition to Christ's authority, God has provided spiritual weapons described in Ephesians 6 to enforce Jesus' victory.
Next, Pastor Tomlinson explored David's secret battle tactics against demonic powers that position believers to walk in victory. David constantly cried out to the Lord as a deliverer and refuge, prayed boldly for divine intervention, took refuge in God while resisting the devil, released God's power through praise, and kept his eyes fixed on God despite failures and battles.
In conclusion, embracing David's proven strategies empowers believers to conquer satanic strongholds as overcomers in Christ. Centering our hearts on Jesus as Deliverer causes us to triumph over all the enemy's power. The battle belongs to the Lord and He will bruise Satan under our feet!
Pastor Tomlinson demonstrates principles in action by engaging volunteers:
Volunteer 1: Michelle
Michelle reached out sharing she had been attacked by evil spirits since 2019. She described being tortured day and night, with demons even pushing words through her airway against her will. Pastor Timothy walked her through inner healing, having her call on Jesus' name and authority to divide soul and spirit. Though Michelle struggled to forgive, with God's help she chose to forgive everyone by faith. Pastor Timothy then prayed for Jesus to come minister to Michelle and confirm her healing. She reported feeling peace and different bodily sensations, praising God for bringing love and freedom. Through simple steps of engaging Jesus, Michelle received deliverance from demonic harassment.
Volunteer 2: Yasanga
Yasanga contacted the deliverance service battling spiritual attacks for over 11 years. Despite persistent prayer, she would make progress only to regress again. Yasanga was disappointed, feeling unable to attain breakthrough or even stay motivated. Pastor Timothy had her recall a painful church betrayal, then led her through inner healing prayer. Yasanga forgave herself and invited Jesus to minister peace, feeling His love tangibly. Pastor Timothy then guided her in self-deliverance, where Yasanga sensed dark presence depart as she commanded it to the pit in Jesus' name. By walking through inner healing and engaging Jesus directly, Yasanga broke years-long spiritual oppression and regained hope.
