Shane Vaughn ——— First Harvest Ministries International
1 you're going to have a meeting of the mans and I want to help you tonight to understand how to walk in total Deliverance all the days of your life all the days of your life Bruce how would you like to be delivered son all your life Andrew how would you like to be delivered son every day of your life not just on occasion but every day brother Shane saw how would you like to walk in Deliverance every day I'm going to teach you tonight you may be seated so good to see my grandbaby come in the back there's legatlin baby go stand him in front of the camera and let the whole world see you just go
2 stand right there y'all aim it down I want everybody to see my grand our grandbaby look put him right there on the screen zoom in on his little face now that's my beloved grandson hallelujah thank you Lord hallelujah strangling the strongholds is something we must learn how to do let's go to Romans chapter 1 verse 28.
3 Elder Morgan would you grab a microphone and help me tonight and be on the ready because I have so many scriptures to combat the devil with Romans 1 28 I'll read that one and then get me Acts 20 and 19.
4 everyone ready Romans 1 28 and so since they do not like to retain Yahweh in their knowledge Yahweh has given them over to a reprobate mind to do those things which are not proper remember tonight's Sherman is the meeting of the minds everyone under the sound of my voice brother Michael maholic was born with one mind every one of you every one of us was born with what a human mind Elder Baker that mind is the very enemy of Yahweh you know why because that is an idolatrous mind that mind breaks the first commandment from the moment you're born to the moment you die because that mind makes Rick
5 Connolly his own God brother Michael your mind makes Michael maholic his own God that mind places you in direct Rebellion to submission to anybody or anything when you come out of your mama's belly brother Morgan who taught the child when you say don't touch that who taught the child touch it he was born with a rebellious mind there's about to be a meeting when you were born I remember when I was just a young child Mama Temple imbued Mississippi nobody knows where that is don't even look it up it's they don't it's just by the railroad track somewhere in Mississippi anybody know where beauty is
6 Franklin County you're right out chunder and so I was imbued Mississippi and we went in Piggly Wiggly and I didn't turn into huggly wogly but it used to be Piggly Wiggly and I went in there and I was probably three or four or five years old and there was a chocolate bunny rabbit I just wanted so bad and Mama Temple said no because Mama Temple was she was my foster mom she didn't have no money couldn't have that bunny rabbit but I got that bunny rabbit oh yes I did and when I got in the car that chocolate was from head to toe and I'm still saying I didn't take it chocolate from head to toe you
7 know what who taught me that that human mind because I'm My Own God I want it I get it I want it I get it because in the human mind it's gift or begotten in the human mind it is survival of the fittest in the human mind it is takers or get taken so you are born with rebellion in your very roots and according to that scripture you are not able to retain Yahweh in your mind read that verse again whoever I don't know where I was somebody tell me where I was I want you to see these verses uh read it Romans 1 28 is that it 28.
8 and even and even as they did not like to retain Yahweh in their knowledge Yahweh gave them over to a reprobate mind to do those things which are not convenient ladies and gentlemen you see these Commandments when you don't retain them not look at them but when you don't retain them in your knowledge what's happening is you're not retaining Yahweh in your knowledge and when you don't retain him he turns you over to a reprobate mind ladies and gentlemen you've got to figure out what a reprobate mind is it's very simple it's not a bad person it's not an evil person it's just a rebellious person read for me Acts 20 and 19 20 and 19 and then grab acts 17 and 11.
9 let's roll serving the Lord with all humility of mine okay see now see the difference how do you serve Yahweh with what humility of the what the mind until you can humble your mind you cannot serve Yahweh you will always serve janish Temple if you don't humble the mind how do we humble the mind we can't it's more powerful than us we need help foreign and I know somebody that provided a helper acts 17 and 11.
10 acts 17-11 these were more noble than those in thessalonica now why were these in that they received the word with all Readiness of mine the mind was ready to receive the word that made them more noble than all other people God wants your mind to get ready to receive the word and what happens when you receive the word sister Denisa you have a meeting of two different Minds when the horse meets the bridle come on there's a meaning of a horse's mind and a human's mind and the human wins every time when you surrender to the meaning of the minds then God can use you for his glory Luke chapter 12.
11 verse 29. Luke 12 and 29 Luke 12 and 29.
12 and seek not ye what ye shall eat or what ye shall drink neither be of doubtful Minds see a mind that doubts is not a humility mind it's not a mind that's been humbled if there's doubt in your mind you've still not had a meeting of the minds there's no room for doubt in the mind of a Believer I want to read for you now Luke chapter 10 verse 27 and it says so he answered and said you must love Yahweh your father with all your heart with all your soul and your mind your neighbor is yourself I want to say this if there's any part of your mind that does not love Yahweh then you will be turned over
13 to a reprobate mind if there's any part of your mind that won't surrender here's what he'll do what do you do with a horse that won't let you put a bridle on it you send it to pasture you know why some people have gone to pasture they won't allow this meeting of two minds they will not allow all the Holy Ghost to put a bridle on and put Yahweh in their thoughts continuously [Applause] [Music] don't mean it all but you got to go out to pasture you're Noah of no use to the Master Luke chapter 8 verse 35 read that Elder chapter 8 and 35.
14 then they went out to see what was done and came to yahshua and found a man out of whom the Devils were departed now hold on I'm fixing to teach you tonight on demonic strongholds I want to show you the first pathway to demonic strongholds in your life this man yahshua cashed the devil out of him and what was the first sign that he was free from demonic oppression read sitting at the feet of yahshua clothed in his right mind he was in his right mind you listen to me now the fact that you're walking in Deliverance is the fact that you're walking in the right mind not your mind I said the right
15 mind which is a submitted mind you need to know tonight that every demon possession in the scriptures the more that they were free the first sign of it was they got their mind back the first signs your life is being taken over by demonic power is when your mind is no longer right [Applause] Romans chapter 12.
16 I'll read it verse 2.
17 do not be conformed to this world but be a transformed by the meeting of the minds that you may be able to prove what is righteous see that's the problem people want to say what's righteous without the right mind you can only prove what is holiness with the right mind or else if you've got your mind you know what you'll say well what's the difference in this and that all right come on that's a reprobate mind if a person don't have the right mind you know what they say well I'll let God tell me what's righteous it don't work that way because your mind cannot hear God it's in Rebellion ain't
18 nobody gonna tell me what to do God will tell me to do but the problem is he has to work with your carnal mind Hallelujah the homosexual believes crawling on top of another man making him lay down on his stomach and doing things that I don't want is okay you know why the wrong mind and they have as good a church as we do Reba Rambo scenes in them I would cause some other people's names out to preach in them the pope of Rome just said that they're okay with God T.D Jakes just said that he understands them I don't that's the wrong mind that mind is reprobate but before you make fun of them what
19 about your favorite sin that you say God's not convicted you of sometimes he can't convict you of it you got a wrong mind foreign that's why you need a shepherd that's why you need somebody that's looking over you in case your mind gets messed up [Applause] [Music] your mind sister Denisha can get messed up in one moment that's why you need elders and Shepherds that's driving you crazy saying the word obedience to you Rebellion to you like I wish they would shut up no you don't because you need a right mind [Applause] amen the Bible set the mind of a man is desperately wicked who can know it
20 somebody said no it says the heart of a man the heart is the mind it's desperately wicked sister Vicky desperately nobody can trust their own mind because your mind will have you thinking it's okay to take your mind will have you thinking it's okay to forget the Sabbath day and just do it any way you want your mind it's the enemy of God why do you think when we come to the father in prayer we have to do it in the name of yahshua the Messiah because we're yahweh's enemies I need you to listen you're yahweh's enemy children in your flesh but when you come hiding behind the only man that Yahweh
21 grants permission to the throne you're allowed to come in the name of yahshua you're hiding in his mind that's good you need a new mind today you need a meeting of the minds now I want to talk about strongholds in our minds every one of you in this room will have to face strongholds can I tell you something listen to me a stronghold is not demon possession I want you to listen to me now you don't need Deliverance from strongholds because strongholds has nothing to do with demons no no no no no I'm gonna prove it hang tight come on come on the reason we like to cast demons out of people is
22 because we don't want to cast people out of people [Applause] do you know why people love to think they're demon possessed because they don't want to think they're Hadassah possessed or their Vicki possessed or they're Ricky possessed you're not hearing me shall we just blame it on the dapple run down and get it cast out so we can say look what the devil made me do it's called reality and you don't know how to live in it he said your mind your mind is deceitful and when you open the door to demon powers they go build strongholds you do amen now what do does what do demons do I'm about to teach
23 you amen but I want to tell you something you don't need a little trip to the altar come on you need a commitment to the word [Applause] come on now of course I believe in demon possession I've seen it I know it's real but the strongholds of your mind had nothing to do with devils it had to do with you being unwilling to submit to the teaching of the word of God because your mind hates accountability no preacher going to tell you what to do of course not you 've smashed up yeah we've all got to become healthy believers and receive strength to pull down strongholds today I want to demystify the
24 word strongholds I want to take all of the away from it I want to take all the fog and all of the strobe lights and all the rooms I want to take all that away amen and I want to teach you what strongholds are I want to take all the Gory pictures of the exorcism out of your mind that's all Hollywood I want to take all that out and I want to show you what you don't want to see I want to show you the real devil in your life amen and it's the one you don't want to hear about it's the one you don't want to deal with you want somebody to lay hands on you you want somebody to cast it up we can't cast
25 you out of you only the word can do that that's it that's why when people come down and get delivered next week they need delivered again and it's worse than it was last time because they refuse to hear the teaching of the word of God the wild wild asses wild horses running on their own they won't submit they won't be part of a church they won't come under any subjection because their mind is not right I want to tell you something if you can't tell me who your father and the Lord is who your pastor is who you're accountable to where you answer to I don't want you talking to me oh amen you got
26 a wrong mind amen amen when I was a young preacher there was something the old preachers used to do Mama Kendrick that I didn't quite understand y'all know what I'm talking about when I was a young preacher I thought because I was anointed that's all I needed to come preach you a Revival but back in those days not anymore now they let any Tom Dick and Harry preacher wants to preach back in those days you know the first thing the pastor would ask me who's your pastor what's his number how do I get a hold of him see what your record is in the churches you've preached in because nine times out of
27 ten you can be anointed to the cows come home but until you get a bridle on your behind you'll destroy every Church you walk in with the anointing yeah yeah Hallelujah I'm no more anointed preachers that have damaged the work of God because their mind is rebellious [Music] [Applause] [Music] one reason Yahweh Love David he knew David knew who his father and the Lord was even though that man was in sin he knew it was Saul and he said I will not touch my head covering [Applause] but matter of fact most of the people I'm preaching to right now you done cut me off because this generation has the
28 wrong mind so I want to demystify the word stronghold it's not some Demon or some spiritual being it's a series of thoughts not a thought a series of thoughts that's what a stronghold is it's all it is I know you was wanting to see some kind of exorcism picture a strong hold in your mind is a series of wrong thoughts it's a mindset Elder Morgan it's a value system that hinders your spiritual growth it hinders the new mind from taking root inside of you brother Von I want to get rid of my strongholds we'll find out tonight we're going to find out because while you're trying to catch Devils out
29 you're always trying to get you to catch those series of thoughts out of your mind yeah wrong thoughts and nobody can cast those out of you I want you to hear me nobody can cast wrong thoughts out of your mind except you the Bible said cast it down every evil wrong thought you've got that power no preacher has that power No Exorcist has that power nobody has the power to take your strongholds down but you all right nobody nobody what does the old man do sister Maxine it stops the new mind from taking roots remember what yahshua said about the seed that fell on Stony ground that's your
30 stronghold there's another series of thoughts there that won't allow that new thought to come in maybe there's a series of thoughts there that says I'm broke I've always been broke I'll always I'm just a mess then I don't care how much I preach to you that you're the apple of yahweh's eye it will never ever destroy your stronghold [Applause] you have to destroy your own strongholds and it's not demons it's packed it's Ricky it's the way you were raised it's the way you think about things and those thoughts begin to collect in your mind and when you hear the word preached do you know Yeshua
31 said these I hear people say there's nothing more powerful than the word oh yes there is that yahshua said you have made the word of Yahweh powerless no effect in your life because that's right I let it because he calls it the word tradition but the word there is really the way you think [Music] you make it you think in such a way that even the word can't penetrate you I'll prove it to you can I prove you right now what I'm preaching is the truth when you walked in those doors and I put up on the screen Psalms 150.
32 and I showed you in the word how everyone has to come into His presence dancing now I gave you the word of Yahweh you're not allowed to come in on Mount Zion without dancing [Music] and do you know what people do to this day they make it of no effect because of how they think about it in their minds it don't apply to them that's a stronghold you have now made the word of God powerless you've got to learn to break your series of thoughts that are out of line with Heaven's thoughts because when those collect up here nobody can cast that out of you you want to know why you go to prayer lines and
33 nobody can help you because it's not demons it's how you think all right [Music] if you are a victim in your mind you will be a victim until you die no matter how much you get prayed for no matter how much they spit on you put holy water on you or holy oil you need a holy mind everyone in this room you've got strongholds in your mind but you're going to be free from them you know why tonight those strongholds we're going to reveal them one by one until you get them out of your head because now let me tell you it is your strongholds that keeps them safe now someone can speak to them Elder Baker
34 to come out but if that stronghold is still there for them to come back to you wasted your time [Applause] [Music] I'm not against Deliverance I'm against false Deliverance if you want Deliverance tonight listen to me and listen to me well you have a stronghold in your mind that welcomed demon powers and until you tear that out of your mind they may leave for a moment Sister Baker but they're coming back right she it turns your good ground into Stony ground what's the difference in a thought and a stronghold every one of you in this room is going to have bad thoughts oh yes Sister Janice
35 there's no if there's anybody in this room that wants to stand up and testify that you don't have a bad thought every once in a while that comes through your mind we would love to be like you all right okay come on [Music] so what's the difference Pastor in a thought a bad thought and a stronghold it's real simple a thought doesn't have roots a stronghold does come on a thought has wings Sister Baker it comes it goes but with that thought is Ken to those other thoughts that's been living in your head it connects to that one and each brick builds a stronghold each thought is a brick Hallelujah
36 every time that you think in your mind a thought it builds a stronghold and you can get rid of a thought but you've got to destroy a stronghold thoughts come and go strongholds change the way you think I do hope everybody's hearing me by deep down I'm talking to you I'm talking to you there's nobody in this room I'm not talking to tonight [Music] strongholds have roots and before you know it you have a certain way of thinking that nobody can take away from you maybe it's a poverty stronghold what do I mean by poverty let me tell you something darling when I was broke I wasn't broke [Music] why
37 because I wasn't broke up here stand ing I didn't get a poor mentality even when I was poorer than poor I never allowed myself to believe I was poverty that I was at the bottom of the barrel I never Outback thought to build in my mind I may have been broke busted and disgusted but those thoughts that I was born that way are gonna die that way and I'm always poor mouthing to everybody my my mind it's a stronghold before you know it you'll have a poor mind and you know what will always come out of your mouth poor me I don't know you didn't start out like that what happened was you had a thought
38 that I'm broke because you was and then you had another and then you held on to that thought whereas if you were a mature believer you would have raised the sword of truth and said I once was young and now I'm old I've never seen the righteous forsaken or received begging for bread you would have killed that brick in your mind [Music] foreign but if you don't do it here's what happens to that thought and my wife could preach the sermon because this is her favorite subject this woman corrects me night and day night and day in a good way as a loving wife when she hears a word come out of my
39 mouth that matches a thought that I've had you know why because if the devil tells you you're broke and you don't do something with that thought right then just leave it festering in your head wake up leave it with that stream in your head well guess what's going to happen tomorrow when you're still broke he gonna come back in there I told you you was broke yeah I'm still broke yes I am and here comes another thought you're going to be broke tomorrow and here comes another thought ain't nobody else around you broke what's he doing he's building a house before you know it you'll be poor even if
40 you had money you'll still be poor in your mind that's right that's why you'll waste if you ever did get money you're waste it all because you believe you're supposed to be poor now I'm not here preaching Naaman claiming I don't believe in the Prosperity Gospel but I do believe that the thoughts of your mind produce the words of your mouth absolutely you cannot get rid of a stronghold overnight but you can get rid of a thought that builds a stronghold as those thoughts come you have to kill them as they come how do you kill them say the opposite and believe it don't just say it believe it when
41 you say it if the word of God if if the word of God says that you're blessed and that thought says you're not somebody's got to win right there [Applause] come on now I'm not preaching Prosperity Gospel I'm preaching truth I'm telling you the strongholds up your mind did not get there overnight nor will they go away overnight that's why when people go to get demons cast out of them and the next day those same thoughts are up there they believe it didn't work they believed there was nothing to it and they go right back to what them thoughts tell them to do [Music] today I'm going to teach you
42 True Deliverance it begins with the renewing of the Mind every time yahshua casts demons from a person the Bible says that they were in their right mind that means all demonic activity begins and ends not in a prayer line not in a chair in the mind [Applause] thank you brother Bruce every demon you're dealing with has a thought that it's attached to you must be renewed first in your way of thinking all demon activity begins there and ends there do you want me to tell you how everyone watching me live right now can be delivered in one moment make up your mind to be delivered and you're
43 delivered bam Wham you're delivered at that moment when you make up your mind that I'm repenting right now I'm turning those thoughts aside and I'm moving into Deliverance by submitting to the word of God the man of God the Church of God nobody see right right when you say the man of God all of a sudden that's that spirit in you those thoughts that stronghold in your mind God loves his children to be obedient to him listen you alone are the possessor of thoughts or the dispossesser of thoughts you alone you alone I get so tired of people standing in lines to embarrass let me okay Lord no I
44 didn't want to do it but I will okay it's just like my Doctrine on Divine Healing is much different than most churches how you gonna walk up here to get prayer for your diabetes when you just ate a bowl of cereal [Music] just left the buffet and had four pieces of cherry pie but you see you sinned against your body and there's a price to pay uh-oh now listen now see people don't like it when they they you know what people want to go down to them churches that lie to them pray for them they still don't get healed but they're happy they got lied to now why did I say that to say this you come up
45 here for prayer for your high blood pressure when you're the very one that calls high blood pressure you're going right back home to eat your next piece of cake and keep your blood pressure high and then come into God's altar to embarrass the ministry because you didn't get healed the Bible said if there's any sick among you let him call on the Elders of the church that your sin might be forgiven you [Applause] Divine Healing is for divine problems yeah come on Pastor now y'all didn't hear it so I'll say it again Divine Healing is for sicknesses that was caused by Satan or sicknesses that were
46 caused by spiritual witchcraft or sicknesses that were caused divinely but God does not want you to embarrass his church brother I don't believe that all right since you think you know so much because you got your mind messed up your rebellious why don't you how's a man gonna crawl in bed with another man and won't heal him from AIDS [Applause] and then go back home do his voice and say well I didn't get healed tonight see you fine with that but you're not fine when we talk about your problems you know why your mind's messed up you got strongholds that says he ain't preaching to me it's
47 strongholds same thing about demon Deliverance you come up here you want somebody to hoard a garbage can for you you wanted to get the paper towels and when you leave you don't want to change your mind you don't want to tear down your Rebellion your strongholds your way of thinking boy you don't you I'm gonna tell you what when I preach on Divine Healing I feel Devils come up because Satan hates me setting God's people free from sickness no go up there and get prayed for and don't get healed so the whole church can see you didn't get healed and embarrass God's work did I say God don't heal no
48 don't misunderstand me I said you've got a part to play in all of this [Applause] you want Deliverance I'll teach you how to have it yes we'll cast The Devil out of you and we'll do it right now but when you go home I need you to cast Pat out of path and get them strong holds out of your mind [Applause] some of you have a stronghold right now you go to church when you want to go when you feel like it when the Bible says for sake not the assembling on the Sabbath day but you that'll apply to you you know why you're God you you have decided how this goes for you instead of submitting yourself to
49 the word of God and now that stronghold builds and builds and builds in your mind one of the biggest strongholds is pride Pride makes you think bigger of yourself than you are Sister Baker Pride is more than a thought you can have a prideful thought okay they're going to come brother Vaughn how do I oh I know somebody else falling asleep I'm so sorry listen I'm trying to I'm just trying to teach you tonight [Music] a prideful thought what is a prideful thought look like I'll show you well he called on all them to give a prophetic word but I'm a prophet too he didn't call on me who do you think
50 you are that you deserve to be called on some of you ain't gonna be coming back after tonight because I'm a real preacher I won't let you play Church he called oh Laurie and she's not even a prophecy that's a he let Elder Morgan preach he and that's a pride why do you think you deserve to preach ER [Applause] and you say what if I never preach I'm gonna live for Yahweh you take that brick out of your mind [Applause] down [Applause] because if you don't here's what happens next that bridge still up there you didn't get rid of it so what happens when you got a lot of jail in your hair what
51 happens next here comes another thought the next service well he didn't ask me to blow the shofar like he normally does all right there's another brick that's prideful thoughts who do we think we are Elder Baker we're all servants one to another if you're serving you're right where you're supposed to be [Applause] next service something else happens before you know it he's built a house say it again we must know that with if we never get called on to sing if we never get called on to preach if all they ask us to do is clean the toilets if all they ask us to do is to vacuum the floor we cannot
52 be offended because we cannot be offended [Applause] a fence comes from the spirit of pride [Applause] now that wasn't a stronghold in Elders mind it was a thought until it becomes a castle now who said who's sitting out now here's where the demons come into play who set that thought to his mind demon powers the demons are Pride okay they are the snake that still Whispers they issue thoughts and you receive them or reject them if you receive that thought then they know you'll receive the next thought but the minute you turn to that one thought and you say God said if God tells my pastor for me
53 to preach I'll preach if God does this I you see you destroy that spirit that thought [Applause] because before you know it you'll be walking around in Pride and everybody will say that your demon possessed but you're really Ricky possessed [Music] wake up you need to hear this everybody needs to hear this strongholds are of your own doing you built them ladies and gentlemen you're going to always have a thought you there's not one person in this room tonight that could not get offended with me if you wanted to maybe I didn't shake your hand just right I throw a marker at you you could have
54 got offended but you're not because you're my son and I'll beat you if I want to [Music] see he could have you know what a perfect example he could have saw that as something horrible but he knows my heart and he loved it you know why it was love say you need to hear this you choose what stronghold's gonna operate in your mind you choose that not the devil your choice I want to teach you tonight how to walk in True Deliverance another stronghold is anger anger always man I've we got people in this church that always matter you know why because you cannot get angry without first having a
55 thought anger always starts with a thought it always starts with an offense it always starts anger starts in your mind not because you're demon possessed brother Vaughn I'm angry all the time then guess what I know how to get rid of it no I'm not going to pray for you no I'm not going to spit on you no I'm not going to throw you in the floor I'm going to bring you to the word and I'm going to teach you how to not be angry how to not let those thoughts turn into anger [Applause] if you don't sit under a Ministry you cannot walk in Deliverance you just can't do it why because Satan has isolated
56 you in your room with nothing but you and wrong thoughts [Applause] think of castles they were strongholds do you know why the castles were stronghold they kept people in and they kept people out a stronghold keeps you thinking your thoughts inside of you and it eventually comes out alcohol lying sexual immorality brother Vaughn I need deliverance from sexual immorality no you don't I don't care if you're homosexual you don't need delivered from homosexuality that's right it's a symptom you need deliverance from Rebellion from a wrong mind [Applause] uh demons out of the homosexual when you
57 look at it of a man's wife it ain't demons it's thoughts sent by demons that's right and they only stay if you make Lego blocks out of them if you build them a house every devil must live in a house built out of thoughts [Music] [Applause] you want the devil to move out tear his house down tear it down remove those thoughts from your mind thank you brother Lord I got an alcohol problem no you don't no sir you ain't got no drug problem you got a rebellious problem you got the wrong mind [Music] none of these are strongholds alcohol's not a stronghold but some thought got in your mind that said

93 because now the demons are coming in and now you're doing things Sister Baker that you in a few years you'll look back and wonder how you were even able to do that and you're not a vicious person you loved that Pastor just a few weeks ago when he was paying all your bills restoring your house for you and fixing bathrooms you left him then but you allowed somebody to put a thought there I'm going to give a testimony there was a lady in this church she's sitting here on my left third row second seat anyway she came knocking on my door looked like she was running for her life she came knocking on
94 my door don't don't bring the camera over here I don't want him to count where the pews are leave it just stay right there she was knocking on my door a few weeks ago I gotta talk to you somebody tried to put a thought in my mind and I'm here to take that thought and reject it out of my mind and I'm here to know the truth and I'm here to find the truth brothers and sisters that's how you take a hammer and destroy foreign Corinthians 4 4 and I'm going to close in whom the God of this age hath blinded the minds of them which believe not lest the light of the Glorious gospel of Christ who is in
95 the who is the image of Yahweh should shine unto them it all begins in the mind it all begins in the mind if you take the bait ladies and gentlemen if your place softly healed if you take the bait I know brother sister Kendrick will testify to this before you know it son Tyler before you know it you won't recognize yourself you won't even know who you are no more if you take the bait you'll be outside of the church not able to Fellowship before you know it you'll be angry you'll be trying to destroy and you'll you'll be thinking in the back of your mind what am I doing why am I this mad
96 [Music] you're not even that kind of person but you allowed a stronghold and those demons when they move in they take over your mind and now you become an exposure a destroyer you become vicious when you were not even vicious before that is demon possession that can be destroyed with one word of Truth and repentance God is calling us tonight I have so many more pages that I cannot even get started on be careful The Company You Keep I just want to say this [Music] whenever you have a stronghold and someone speaks to that stronghold in your mind it ignites a fire it alerts all of hell that
97 there's a house for them to live in be careful The Company You Keep the Bible said evil Communications turn you into something you don't even recognize when I've asked the members of this church to block certain things you think it's because they would have you to think it's because I don't want you to know the truth it's not that I can face the truth it's not that I don't want you outside the Ark of Safety because of what they put in your mind [Music] [Applause] Hallelujah no matter how much the shepherd tries to warn you if your mind's not right she'll think he's trying to control you I want
98 you to hear that you'll take away a Woodrow you know why you got a messed up mind when you see your child going off of a cliff that's not controlled but if his mind's messed up he'll look at you and say you're not going to control me and keep on running [Music] because his mind ain't right get your mind right with God tonight submit to the word of God submit to the will of God for your life submit to the Commandments of Yahweh and that first one is no other gods beside me submit to that one and I promise you you'll submit to all the rest of them thank you son when that Spirit comes to your
99 mind I want to tell y'all something there's something we don't do in the church anymore and Satan loves it the Bible said you're not going to believe what it says you're not going to like it people thought people think they act like I wrote the Bible or something all I do is quote it they just don't like the quotes the Bible said confess your sin one to another if you want to find out how to get Deliverance real quick and stay in it [Music] call one of these elders say I'm having that thought again Elder amen I need help I promise you they bring in the oil they bring in the sisters and they on
100 the way help is on the way help is on the way [Applause] but the thing is we don't want to confess our sin we want to repent of them you know why we like to repent instead of confess repentance is sort of easy I'll tell the Lord it didn't say that the Bible didn't say tell the Lord your sin did you know that it said tell it to one another so you can't hide you know why people leave the church they start to get found out about and they don't want to be found out they want to hide but in this ministry we all up in your business and you all have been ours we're watching for one another [Music]
101 [Applause] when you come up in here with a lion Spirit you think we're just going to let you keep lying Rick Conley he looked at the point of the brothers said you are nothing but a liar the brother's gone you know why they don't want to be exposed for what they are we don't expose any of us but for one reason we expose ourselves to one another you know why because as we confess our faults one to the other the Bible said he is faithful to forgive us of that fault and now those thoughts can't stay in our minds we gave them away we gave them to an elder we gave them to the bishop we gave them to
102 a pastor and we gave them to God when we did it if you are struggling tonight with strongholds in your mind no I'm not doing no altar call no I'm not going to let you come down here and cry it out [Music] I'm gonna do it the way my grandma did it I'll make you deal with it if you've got rebellion in your mind you need to find someone in this church that you trust now don't tell just anybody your stuff but I wouldn't have ordained these Elders in this church if I didn't have full confidence in them see bishop and sister Kendrick you ought to pull them in a room and say I'm struggling with
103 something it's not good I'm gonna tell you I'm thinking these thoughts and what happens you'll let it out and then they'll take it from you just like brother Kendrick takes the tithe on behalf of God we're ordained to take your confession see as you confess to your sister something you're struggling with what do you do with it you unload it and you take the power away from that thought Hallelujah just leave them there see you need to learn tonight to confess your faults one to another leave them there take your burdens to the Lord and leave them there if you trust and never doubt take your
104 birth and leave the man just leave them there [Music] take your burdens to the Lord and leave them land if you'll trust and never doubt you will surely bring you out take your bird to the Lord and Lead [Music] if there's anything in your mind tonight against a brother or sister in this ministry I want to give you my promise it will stay there unless you get it out it's not going to go nowhere unless you put it out do you know how you do it you're not gonna like it but I'll tell you sister Hadassah I had a thought about you that I know it's not true Elder now see we don't want to hear this
105 everybody wants people to lay hands on them that's what they um [Music] I'm trying to do surgery on this church how many times you're gonna fall out in the spirit with no change that's all it is it's a Tylenol it works for a minute [Music] but surgery is when you learn to confess your fault one to another go to sister Pat and you say Pat the other day when you invited all those people to your house and you didn't invite me I just thought that was so rude and then you know what Pat does I'm so sorry I'm so sorry I didn't have room for a lot of people but I would love to have had you so why
106 don't me and you do lunch tomorrow [Music] and what happens now that brick you had [Music] and now Satan has no place in your mind the Bible said give no place to the devil Hallelujah well that's all folks I'm not going to do anything else except bring the word that the Lord brought to us tonight can we give him a hand clap of Praise if we receive the word thank you Lord
Summary
Pastor teaches that strongholds are not demons but series of interconnected wrong thoughts built brick by brick in the mind through repeated negative thinking patterns. True deliverance comes through renewing the mind with God's word, breaking rebellious thought patterns, and confessing faults to church leadership. The key to freedom is submitting one's mind to God's authority and rejecting lies with truth from Scripture.
