Here’s a question I’d pose on this topic:
In what spirit do you think Christ casts out Satan?
Love?
Peace?
Hate?
Contempt?
Fear?
What would you say?
Decide, then read on…
If you do it in the spirit that is the dark side’s power and dominion you will not succeed in your attempt to cast out. Or at least not consistently. Satan May allow it for a time to get you to do it that way again and again to solidify his power and ability to confuse you into doing it that way again and again knowing that he will not truly be cast out.
But do it with the Love and Light and Peace of Christ, and Satan will truly Be cast out and it will become increasingly more difficult for him to return to annoy you.
An important lesson I have learned is:
Evil is powerless where unconditional love resides.
D&C 50:30-33
30 But know this, it shall be given you what you shall ask; and as ye are appointed to the head, the spirits shall be subject unto you.
31 Wherefore, it shall come to pass, that if you behold a spirit manifested that you cannot understand, and you receive not that spirit, ye shall ask of the Father in the name of Jesus; and if he give not unto you that spirit, then you may know that it is not of God.
32 And it shall be given unto you, power over that spirit; and you shall proclaim against that spirit with a loud voice that it is not of God—
33 Not with railing accusation, that ye be not overcome, neither with boasting nor rejoicing, lest you be seized therewith.
……………….It has to be done with love and peace, if not we are at risk to having it attack us.
Have you forgotten that these beings are still our brothers and sisters. Heavenly Father and Mother still love them!
They Love even their son Lucifer. They do not love what he does. But they love Him.
God IS Love. And only that pure love can cast Satan out.
That’s why it has to be done in the name and power of Christ = The purest love of all
Satan will be bound in the millennium. Not by chains, but it is said that it is by the righteousness of the people.
In another post I will tell more of the story about how the Lord taught us how to “bind Satan in our lives”.
We do not interact with Satan in this way any further. He does not pester or torment us in these ways any longer.
If he ever does show up, we imbue him with the light and Love of Christ and if it is truly a dark spirit or Satan himself they can’t stand the brightness of the light and they leave.
If it is just a mischievous spirit or an ancestor or something, they often begin to cry. I’ve seen them fall to their knees in love and gratitude and often give me their information so that we can get their Temple work done for them.
Just my two cents from what we’ve experienced and learned.
Now… The old way of casting out was often about judgement and retribution and when looked at with an honest eye, fear, hate, and contempt.
Many methods of casting out have been fear based and involved binding and casting into hell where they are thought to have come from.
Yet the Lord taught us to let only Him judge souls, to love and feed the lost sheep and respect the agency of others.
When a spirit is bound we are restricting their agency and judging them based possibly on muscle testing or perhaps even deceptive or misunderstood revelation.
It’s harmful to possible ancestors who are not attacking, yet are lost and hurting. There are boundaries we must have so we are not victims ourselves as there are some dark spiritual influences out there, but God gives us opportunities to grow. We assume we are the good guys in the spirit war, but if we condemn or bind and attack back – are we the good guys?
I’ve seen a lot of damage caused by binding and casting into hell. It’s torturous. If God loves us all equally and desires we all succeed – how would Father desire we handle the situation???.
He doesn’t play favorites…. but has boundaries. And so must we to grow to become like our Heavenly Father and Mother.
So many people have jumped on the “casting out” and condemning every spirit they recognize as foreign bandwagon that they have begun to actually create enemies in the spirit world and are healing loads of bad energy into themselves and that only leaves the door even further open for tempters to come knocking.
There’s a better way that involves using Gods way while not being under attack.
But now, the new way is what we have learned from our Lord. Truths that are far deeper and more rich in understanding, love and authority. So much so that now, many come to us who cannot overcome dark forces and after using methods in proper alignment with Christ, have greater success without causing harm to others or making enemies in the spirit realms.
Let God be the judge
Agency is #1
Love others
Feed the lost sheep
Use healthy spiritual boundaries
So if you use the old ways of casting out, after a spirit is bound and cast into one of these pits, they actually remain there as victims for thousands of years unless rescued or gain release. The only way that they can get out of those binds is with the power of light and love that comes from God… however if they have been bound and cast into the hell “Dimension” (we will just call it that to create a mental framework), they may become angry or sad or vengeful and those binds remain for a very long time. Remember the adversary loves suffering and that spirit will continue to suffer…
And what’s scary is if you don’t know all the different names for all the different types of spirits, you could accidentally use very vague titles such as disembodied, entity, or unclean. These titles do not offer any clarity on the type of advanced spirit that might be attacking. Many times the spirit that is in your presence is the spirit of another mortal but will feel like an entity because our energy bodies entertain and effect each other.
It MAY even be YOUR OWN energy that you have created from your own past fears or anger that is lingering around you and because you have not released it feels like it is a tormentor. I can go into this and how to resolve this problem more later in another post.
Some have accidentally cast out family members’ Spirits into hell dimension after binding. I’ve had to do many Spirit rescues for this reason.
It’s also important to recognize why Heavenly Father allowed the attack to occur and what opportunity you may have to learn.
So again and again… the adversary FEEDS on:
Suffering
Fear
Pain
Disdain
Contempt
Anger
Aggression
Maliciousness
Suspicion
Condemnation
And death of spirit and light
These things grow his power and dominion. While:
Peace
Love
Joy
Gladness
Life
Light
Livingness
Welcoming
Friendliness
Happiness
Calm
Caring
And consideration
Diminish his power and kingdoms. As well as his control on the earth and over you and those whine you love.
ANYTHING you do within the frequencies of the above list will grow him and his power. And if you are trying to cast him or any entity out and your feelings/emotions are anywhere near the top list, you will only empower him further. Oh he may go away for a time, to trick you into thinking that those methods work so that you will keep using them and therefore keep feeding him! But ultimately he will only come back and next time all the stronger.
The ONLY way to bind Satan and all such entities in your life, is Christ’s way:
Let God be the judge
Agency is #1
Love others
Feed the lost sheep
Use healthy spiritual boundaries
And ALL things you say and do regarding them MUST be in:
Love!
Peace
Love
Joy
Life
Light
Love
Friendliness
Calm
Caring
And consideration
Love!
This is why it must ALWAYS be in the name of Christ. For Christ, the deliverer, IS Love incarnate.
So all that you do in the name of Christ you do in the name of “Love.”
Be ye therefore perfect even as your Father which is in Heaven is perfect and brings the rain and the sun upon both the wicked and the righteous.
Peace, Love and Light to you,
Mrs Seeker
