What are Demons and What Do They Do?

Demons are real spiritual entities or beings without physical bodies. They seek to torment, prevent people from knowing Christ, and hinder Christians from serving God effectively.

Demons operate primarily in the realm of emotions, attitudes, the mind, speech, sexuality, and physical health. Their activities include:

• Enticing people to do evil.
• Harassing and wearing people down.
• Inflicting physical or emotional pain.
• Compelling people to do harmful things against their will.
• Enslaving people to sinful habits and bondages.
• Defiling people’s thoughts and relationships.
• Deceiving people into false beliefs.
• Inflicting weakness, sickness, and death.

How Do Demons Gain Access?

Demons look for open doors and legal rights to inhabit a person. Access points can include:

• Occult involvement in witchcraft, sorcery, fortune-telling, astrology, spiritism, etc.
• Generational curses from occult practices by ancestors.
• Prenatal rejection or curses.
• Manipulation or soul ties with abusive or controlling people.
• Pressures and traumas during childhood.
• Moments of fear, panic, or loss of self-control.
• Persistent sinful habits and bondages.
• General lack of self-control.

Requirements for Deliverance

To be set free from demons, you must meet certain conditions:

• Humility – Pride blocks deliverance.
• Honesty – Call the problem what it is, don’t sugar-coat sin.
• Confess faith in Christ – Jesus is our High Priest.
• Confess sins – Of yourself and your ancestors.
• Repent – Renounce and turn from sin.
• Renounce the occult – Involvement gives demons access.
• Forgive others – Bitterness impedes deliverance.
• Stand on Scripture – God’s Word is the authority.
• Expel the demons – Command them to leave in Jesus’ name.

Expelling Demons

The key to deliverance is expelling demons out of your body and life.

• Pray and fast to increase spiritual strength.
• Command them firmly to leave you immediately in the name and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ.
• Don’t stop until the demons are gone. You may have to expel repeatedly.

Key Bible verses to stand on when expelling demons include: 

“And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,
as the Lord has said,
even among the survivors
whom the Lord calls.”

Joel 2:32 (NIV)

“I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions [demons] and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you”

Luke 10:19 (NIV)

Some manifestations during deliverance can include coughing, yawning, burping, intense fear, crying, screaming, anger, and other reactions.

Stay focused on expelling the demons until you feel release and victory.

After Deliverance

Once demons are cast out, be sure to thank and praise the Lord for setting you free! Give Him all the glory.

Walk in the new freedom by:

• Resisting temptation.
• Reading Scripture daily.
• Fellowshipping regularly with other believers.
• Maintaining deliverance through prayer.

God may highlight other areas that need deliverance. Be willing to go through the process as many times as needed to break free completely.

You may also need inner healing and restoration of your soul. Counseling, prayer ministry, or a deliverance ministry can help if you need guidance and support.

Deliverance is an ongoing process of cleansing and renewal. But Jesus promised that whom the Son sets free is free indeed (John 8:36)!

You can walk in consistent victory through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Conclusion

Jesus Christ came to destroy the devil’s works and set the captives free (1 John 3:8, Luke 4:18). He overcame Satan so that we could overcome evil with good (Romans 12:21).

We have authority as believers to cast out demons, break generational curses, and walk in liberty (Matthew 10:1, Galatians 3:13).

If you feel oppressed in any way, take courage! Submit to God, resist the devil, draw near to Jesus, and humbly follow the steps outlined here for getting delivered.

“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”

John 8:36 (NIV)

You can walk forth in wholeness and victory through Christ.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Isn’t this just mental illness?

A. Mental illness should be treated professionally. But many conditions that seem purely psychological also have spiritual roots.

Demons can aggravate mental illness or mimic it. Getting free spiritually helps people get mentally and emotionally free as well (Luke 8:26-39).

Q. Do I have to scream or manifest to be delivered?

A. Outward manifestations are common but not necessary. The key is expulsion through breathing, coughing, etc.

Pride sometimes keeps people from manifesting openly. But be willing to humble yourself and do whatever it takes to get free.

Q. Do I have to know the demons’ names?

A. Names can help strengthen authority over a demon, but you have authority in Jesus’ name to expel demons even without knowing their names.

Q. Can a Christian be demonized?

A. Even genuine believers can struggle with demonic strongholds in certain areas of weakness.

But a demon cannot fully possess a believer who is secured by the Holy Spirit. Partial harassment is possible, but not total ownership.

Q. Will demons keep coming back once expelled?

A. They may try to return if you give them legal rights again through sin or occult involvement. But demons have to flee and cannot re-enter if you stay submitted to God (James 4:7).

Fulfilling the conditions outlined in this article will ensure your freedom remains permanent.
