Matthew 18:18 (NKJV) “Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
As believers… followers of Christ, we have been given spiritual authority here on earth.
We have the ability to bind (to arrest) and the ability to loose (to set free). This is not a small matter or something to be taken lightly.
Sadly, the vast majority of the church, Christ’s body, knows little or nothing about this. Many people have been convinced that spiritual gifts no longer exist, therefore anything related to deliverance from demonic spirits or anything remotely related to the moving of the Holy Spirit in our lives is non-existent.
But Jesus told us that what we loose on earth will be loosed in heaven (meaning, in the spiritual realm) and what we bind on earth will be bound in heaven. And we need to take this seriously!
So as we go through each day, if we let God sharpen our discernment, He will show us where demonic influences are in operation, and we will be able to bind those spirits and loose God’s freedom, His Joy, His peace, etc.
Church, we seriously need to get this. In the times we’re living in, it is not optional. It’s a necessity!
So ask God to open your eyes to these things and give you razor-sharp discernment to know when to bind and when to loose something or someone. He is faithful to give us what we need.
