LIBERATION - THIS KIND ONLY COMES OUT WITH FASTING AND PRAYER Breaking Resistant Strongholds Through Spiritual Discipline.

This appears to be a religious or spiritual text title, likely referring to the biblical passage from Matthew 17:21 or Mark 9:29, where Jesus speaks about certain spiritual challenges that require fasting and prayer for breakthrough.

 

Liberation from the deepest oppressions requires discipline, communion, and total surrender to God. Fasting and prayer are powerful tools for experiencing victory, transformation, and spiritual growth.

 

Today we enter a battlefield that requires special weapons, intense preparation, and unwavering determination. There are situations of spiritual oppression so deep, strongholds so entrenched, and demons so resistant that conventional methods are not sufficient.

 

Jesus taught us a fundamental truth when His own disciples failed to liberate a tormented young man: "This kind does not come out except by prayer and fasting" (Matthew 17:21).

 

This word "kind" reveals that there are different levels of demonic resistance. Some demons leave with a simple rebuke, others require persistent prayer, but there is a special category that only surrenders before the combined power of fasting and prayer!

 

Isolation cools the soul. Being in communion with other believers who are also seeking to keep their flames burning creates an environment of mutual warmth. A single ember goes out quickly; several embers together form a bonfire.

 

When the Holy Spirit speaks to your heart — whether to apologize to someone, to help someone in need, or to abandon a bad habit — obey immediately. Each act of obedience is like blowing on the embers, making the flame grow stronger.

 

Today we will learn to identify these resistant strongholds and use the spiritual weapons that God has given us to break impossible chains and liberate desperate captives!

Liberation from Possession: "Pedro, 16 years old, began having strange manifestations after playing with a ouija board.
