I Just Commanded a Demon to Leave, But It Is Still There.  What Do I Do Now?

What would you do if you spoke to your sickness and commanded it to leave, but you still felt symptoms?  Would you keep commanding it to leave until you felt better?

I hope not.  I hope that you would believe that the name of Jesus works, and that the disease IS leaving no matter what it looks like.

Likewise, if the demon is still there, you need to believe that the name of Jesus works.  That means that the name of Jesus, spoken ONCE, makes demons leave.

You would not want to get tricked into “repraying” the prayer of faith over and over for a sickness if you don’t feel instantly better.  Likewise, you would not want to get tricked into “repraying” the prayer of faith to make a demon leave. Demons are subject to you in Jesus’ name (Luke 10:17), and that doesn’t mean that you have to keep using the name of Jesus over and over.  That name, used ONCE, is enough to force a demon to leave.  Even if it mocks you and says, “I’m not leaving!” it has to leave anyway – as long as you stand your ground and believe that the name of Jesus that you already used was enough to force the demon to go.

NO demon, no matter how “wicked,” has the right to stay when you command it to leave in the name of Jesus. Expect Jesus to back His name and expel that foul thing even if you don’t say another word to it.  You might want to explain to people who are around that the name of Jesus has power and only needs to be used once.  You don’t want to let a demon drag you into some long conversation, as it may try to do.

Always act like the Word is true, because it is.  Jesus said that in HIS NAME we would cast out demons (Mark 16:17).  He did NOT say that in His name we would command demons to leave, but they would stay put.  Believe Jesus, not some lying demon!
