Dismantling Familiar Spirits -Apostle Karen McNair

Familiar spirits - opens doors to gain intelligence for destruction - You’re speaking can set an opportunity for the enemy to come in

We open the door by what we say and what we do - familiar spirits instigate destruction through something common and familiar - You don’t recognize it so you keep saying it and doing it

Lord reveals every hidden unseen thing that the enemy is plotting

Two ways familiar spirits enter in - Extreme known and - Extreme unknown *comes through ignorance

Gathers intel of you and sets up opportunities to enter in

Watch the people that draw to you - Pray for them

Deception is always a part of the equation

Discerning - Greek word; diakrisis discerning; judging distinction, explanation, or differentiation between good and bad Know the difference between two things - we can’t tell the difference between two things because we are in our flesh - We must accept and use the spiritual skills of distinguishing between the two - It’s not always immediately obvious so you must discern

Unwanted House Guest - setback, cycles, and delays - Why do I keep going through this….

Marriage breaking demons - you have to look down the family line, and see what has taken place…to see what you have to wrestle with - Be careful what you entertain - We don’t need to play with it at all - The enemy has gathered intel - Go back and slam the door

Is your door cracked?

Law of attraction Operates in different ways - Attraction - the action to draw a response, things that draw ppl together - Personality, upbringing

Demonic attractions - example; a woman abused

Two ppl with sexual immorality somehow find themselves gravitating to each other in large crowds - what am I drawing too? - Operates in other things as well - Manipulation, control, dominate to get what you want

Be careful what you’re drawn too - you have to take innovatory of what’s attracting you - what’s in the bloodline

Time to get delivered 2 cor. 10:4-5 Demons seek to express their evil assignments through your thoughts “I don’t want to become a host for the enemy” - Whenever you’re carnal, you entertain stuff “I ain’t got time for mind demons, and none of yours either”

The enemy wants to use our thoughts - the goal of the enemy is to distract the plans of God over your life - What is the pattern of your thinking “Don’t nobody owe you anything”

When a familiar spirit infests a person's paradigm (mind; thinking) - we must train ourselves to know the difference between the voice of God and voice of the enemy - John 10:27 Once you embrace something that it isn’t true it becomes a stronghold

The power of the blood - we know we have to take authority - Lev. 17:9 it Is the blood that makes atonement for our souls - Lev. 17:11 - Lev. 23:27 God had a plan of redemption - hebrews 10:1-10
