 Okay. Good morning everyone and welcome to today's session. Hopefully this is the final session, the one that we're going to discuss today. Let's pray and begin. I just want to leave it open for anybody on the call to lead in prayer, please. Okay, who would like to lead? Okay. Sure. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, Vijay. So, we are now at chapter 14 where we talk about exercising authority over territories and regions. So, so far we've understood that we have been given spiritual authority and we have this authority because of what Jesus has done on the cross for us. Now that we are in Christ Jesus, we receive this authority, we can exercise our authority. We've seen that God is also given us weapons of warfare which we can use because we are battling the spiritual realm and so we have to do it God's way. All of this we have seen. Now we have talked more in terms of, if you remember, we said ground level warfare, strategic level warfare. So, primarily administering deliverance to people as individuals. Okay. Or maybe even families we've considered. We've talked a little bit about organization and institution here and there. But in a larger scale, when we talk about ministering deliverance, what are some of the strategies that apply? That is what we are talking about. More so principles rather than strategies. What are the principles that we must be aware of? So, we can exercise authority over territories and regions. Now, when we look at examples in the Bible, we find, especially in the book of Acts, that we have teams of people who go to cities and there is an incredible transformation in that city. There are initially, even if there are no churches, churches are established, a strong work is accomplished in that city. From then on, the church of the city begins to grow or the citywide church begins to grow. So, in today's context, how do we apply this? For an entire region or a city, how to exercise the authority that God has given us, that's what we are looking at today. Now, when we study the Great Commission, it's quite clear where Jesus said, go into all the world, make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit. Behold, I'm with you, always even to the end of the age. So, our calling is a calling to impact, not just my family, my neighborhood, some people whom I know, it's beyond that. It's definitely beyond that. For every believer, God says that you can have influence, you can have authority beyond that. And we have been given, we've studied this in detail that every believer, I think I said it some time ago, that it's not just for the pastors or the leaders, but every believer can exercise this authority which Christ has given us. Now, we need to understand that in the spiritual realm, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is delegated with the highest authority on the earth. So, when we consider this earth, we find, in the natural realm, we find institutions, we find government structures, we find civic bodies, and they are all bestowed with a level of authority. We don't deny that. In the natural realm, they have greater authority because sometimes we don't find that churches and cities are strong enough. When we say strong enough, influence-wise or finance-wise, you can't compare the government bodies and the churches. But what are we saying? We are saying spiritually, spiritually, when we consider the Church as far as the Bible is concerned, when we study scriptures, we understand that as Jesus said, do you recall, I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. So, what is he saying? He's saying there are two kingdoms, the Kingdom of Light, the Kingdom of Darkness, and the Kingdom of Darkness will never be able to overcome the Kingdom of Light. So, the Kingdom of Light and we the Church are a part of that Kingdom of Light, the Church. I will build my church, Jesus said, and it will be a strong church. And we see references time to time where we are called a glorious church, a radiant church. And so, our understanding is that this church, this entity that we call as a church, is a very strong entity and it has been given the highest authority, spiritual authority, I mean on the earth. And we recognize that it is more powerful than any other spiritual authority that we know, functional here on the earth. So, with this understanding, we can expect a transformation. When we say transformation, we do look at spiritual transformation, but it is more in terms of what I'm talking today, it's also in terms of social transformation, we could be addressing matters of justice, we could be addressing matters of inequality, we could be addressing matters of infrastructure, basic amenities for people, so many things. So, transformation in every sense is possible when God is a part of that place. So, I remember one story, basically this was on missions when we had gone, we had gone to a place in Gujarat and so they had a testimony of the person who first came to that area and started sharing the Gospel and all that. So, that testimony really impacted me a lot. So, what they said is this one man, he was born again and the supernatural power of God was very evident through his life, he would pray and miracles will take place. So, he came to this place. But at that time, the plot of land which was given to him was, sometimes it's infertile, so basically you can't be very productive as far as agriculture is concerned, there wasn't water flowing through that land. So, many things they shared, so it was like that. He came and he started not just preaching the Gospel, but he started working on that piece of land. So, by the time we went, he was an elderly gentleman. I don't even know how old he was, maybe like mid-70s or something like that. But we got to hear so many testimonies about how things have changed and when we went that whole land, they were growing, the place where we were meeting and all, that area had mango trees and it was beautiful because you could just see like mangoes hanging on every tree. You know, it was green and by that time, there was a stream flowing through that land also and so, we were asking how did this happen? How did this transformation happen? So, whatever, you know, 30-40 odd years of that pastor being there and pastor ministering to the people, multitudes of people around that area, they had come to know about Jesus. So, many leaders were raised up. Now, he was old, but he had pastors under him. So, there were pastors under him and not just spiritual transformation, but they were telling us about all these you know, natural things that got affected by the gospel and that place, I mean, I couldn't believe that it was, you know, that plants were not growing there, crops were not growing there because it was unbelievable. It was green and as I told you that section where we visited, full of mango trees and, you know, mangoes were just hanging and it was beautiful. So, I'm just giving you like what I have experienced and I was amazed that God's word does not only transform the spiritual part of who we are. Similarly, when it comes to a place or a region, we can expect a greater transformation. So, even physical, you know, the way groundwater levels apparently came up over there and, you know, it became so fertile, they were having good crops, they were growing most of the food which they were cooking, they were growing on their own in that place. So, God can do that and I don't know how many of you have seen this, but there is a documentary, it's called Transformations and it has compilation of certain regions where people got together in prayer and when people started praying and in some places it was more like a city-wide prayer where you had people from different churches come together, you know, forget about their, you know, issues on doctrine and all, but just come together, pray for the city, bless the city. So, in South America, there's one particular, you know, place that this video captures where in a stadium people gathered and they would have overnight worship, praise, intercessions and, you know, just build up that spiritual atmosphere over the city and the result of that, in that documentary you can see it, I think it's accessible on YouTube as well. You see in that video how the crime rates came down in that city, how it started affecting, you know, every aspect of city life, even to the degree that in that video they show even the vegetables, you know, that were grown in the region and they show the size of the vegetables, you know, it's humongous, it's huge and they're like, we've never had such a crop ever before. So, the point I'm trying to make is that we can experience city transformation spiritually, morally, we, you know, talk about natural, natural elements, God is able to do that, you know, God, the way he says, right, in 2 Chronicles 714, like if my people, they're called by my name, they humble themselves and pray, they seek my face, you know, turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear their prayer and I will heal their land. So, healing is wholesome and transformation can take place. Now, we may all be concerned about things such as, you know, crime in the city or we may be concerned about a youth of the city, not being, you know, educated and ethical practices or even morally, right, we find that people no longer hold on to good values. So, things deteriorating around us and we should be concerned when we hear such news. However, you know, from what we can see in the Word of God, this authority that Jesus has given us, it's not just to practice, you know, for deliverance, the way we have studied till now, but you and I can even use the authority for city transformation, okay. So, as a corporate body or together, together, when we begin to pray for our city, when we begin to declare, you know, there are many things we have discussed and I'm also going to discuss few more things about how to do this, how to see city transformation by using our authority. But, you know, let's first understand that it is possible, okay, city transformation is possible and for this, we would need generally what we have seen is when believers come together, when pastors come together, right, churches come together, there is more power in prayer, there is more power in that kind of a unity. So, instead of can one believe a prayer and can God save the city? Yes, you know, we have talked about how in intercession, God is looking for one man to stand in the gap. So, with one it is possible, but in practice, what we see is whenever we have people coming together in this manner, repenting before the Lord, praying, then the city is impacted in a powerful way. So, we must pray and along with that, some strategic efforts. So, by that, when we say strategic efforts, it may mean that we think of having some initiatives, right, initiatives such as, let's say, for the youth. If the values are not good in a particular place, what can be done for the youth, right? So, we run some programs, practical ones, we are praying spiritually, all those things are going on, but in a practical way, in a strategic way, maybe some sort of a campus movement would make a difference in the lives of the youth or the marketplace, if we find that that's where God is calling us to make an impact. Something in the area of marketplace, business, when we do things like that, then, yeah, you know, it makes an impact. So, we need the spiritual part of doing things as well as the wisdom of God to implement strategic initiatives. So, when both of this go hand in hand, we can see a lasting change and a lasting transformation. Now, when we talk about missionaries, many old missionaries who came, people who came to India, I can think of people like Aida Skadar, you know, Amy Carmichael, when we study their life stories, we find that it's so amazing, you know, they were, they were godly people, they were so prayerful, you still, you know, read what they wrote and some of the songs and all the spiritual things, they were prayerful people, but they also had some initiatives. And today, you know, as we consider some of the things that the strategic wise programs which they implemented, even today, like I know people who in my generation have come out of the Donawur fellowship of Amy Carmichael, often children, you know, who were being taken care of from whatever, tens, so many decades, right? So, I still know people who've come out of there and it's still blessing people up until today. You talk about CMC Vellor, it's one of the most reputed institutions in particularly in Asia, we, we highly regarded Aida Skadar, she gave her life to start that institution, CMC Vellor. So, just some examples, but I'm just saying that spiritual, yes, we have to pray, but have wisdom from God, he may want to initiate some things, okay, we have to be open to that. And when we step into the wisdom that God gives us, both work hand in hand. So, we are able to make a difference in the lives of people. So, we have to take a practical step and make things happen. Okay. And city transformation is to, there's a statement here which says leveraging our spiritual resources. So, leveraging our spiritual resources would mean, you know, understanding what the word of God has to say and also working together with, with other Christians, Christian leaders and everything that God is doing in and through all of us, we kind of use it all to see a change in our city. Okay. So, some of the strategies for city transformation as given in our notes here, I'm going to go over it. Please feel free, you can stop me at any point if you have a question or we want some discussion here. Well, some strategies are, first is live the gospel. Okay. So, how to impact the city? We will come to the prayer or all those parts, but let's begin with first of all, live the gospel. Right. Because now you see as Christians, there are a lot of Christians in many parts of the country, you know, as we understand and especially like the south of India, we can say, yes, there are a lot of Christian communities. However, here's the challenge. We are believers, but is our life reflecting the gospel? You know, that's a question we have to ask because when we see Matthew chapter 5 verses 13 to 16, it reminds us we are the salt, we are the light. So, we are influencers. Our life should be influencing people positively. It should bring a kingdom influence. But if we are saying that yes, there are a lot of people who believe, but there's no influence, then there's something that is missing, isn't it? So, but let's begin to think this way. It's important to first of all, be salt and light or be positive influencers. When we read about the kingdom of God, we see a little bit of leaven, leaven is the whole batch, it says. So, we may be small, but then we can have a mighty influence. We see the parable where we the believers are the good seed who are sown in this world where there can be tares or people who don't believe in God, but we still are the good seed and we have a role to play here. We have to stand our ground. We have to live for God. So, living the gospel and living it the right way as we study scripture, we understand that we have to put on the armor of righteousness as per 2nd Corinthians 6-7 and the armor of light as per Romans 13-12. So, with righteousness as the light when we live, it will make an impact for God and in that way we can exercise our authority. What is the next thing? So, first is to just live the righteous Christian life that God has given us that will make an impact. The second is share the gospel. So, sometimes we just stop with, I am a good Christian, I am righteous, I do all the right things, I don't want to talk about Jesus, but that's not something that we see in the example of the early believers and the great commission Jesus told us go into all the world, make disciples of all nations. How do we make disciples of those who are not disciples yet? We have to share the gospel with them and Paul writes in Romans 1 14-16, he writes there that the gospel of God, it is life transforming, it's the power of God unto salvation. So, when we share with somebody that God loves you so much that he sent his only son to die for your sins because nothing else will be able to pay for the sins that mankind has committed. So, Jesus died on the cross for you, he was buried, he rose again and because of that now you have salvation, God gives you an invitation to become his child, would you like to be a child of God. So, you know, we are talking about what Jesus has done and then we give them an invitation to accept Christ into their lives. Now, we may think that hey, how is this going to make a difference? But as Paul wrote, the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is the power of God unto salvation. Now, we don't understand in our logic, how can this work? How can this truth work? But it has the power to transform lives and which is why we have to learn to communicate it, communicate the gospel to individuals, to communities, to groups, do it the usual way, you know, the way I shared just now, do it with a testimony, do it, you know, with people sometimes use the four spiritual laws, people sometimes just share how good God has been to them and sometimes just life testimonies about hey, this happened to me, I was not well and Jesus healed me. Just those testimonies are going to touch people's lives and we can release the authority of God over people's lives when we share the gospel. So, we can even do it in creative ways, right? All of you who are very talented people, media and, you know, video, so you can use any form. But the undaluted gospel, as we see it, it's the power of God to transform people's lives. So, use the gospel, share the gospel, that demonstrate the gospel. We see that Jesus moved with compassion, Matthew 14, 14. Not only did he know what he was going to do for the people, but when he saw people in difficulty, even before he went to the cross, he was moved with compassion. He flowed right through the power of the Holy Spirit, setting them free, healing them, delivering them and all that. And as we study further, what Jesus told his disciples is that, hey, now you go, you do it, right? We, you know, John chapter 14 verse 12, it says, you shall do greater works than these because I go to my Father. So, we are called to demonstrate greater works than these. How to do it? No, we've talked about it, you pray for people, you move in the gifts of the Holy Spirit, right? So, when we do all these things, God's power is being released. People are being touched. The city also will be transformed. Imagine, if everybody in the city was like that, praying, releasing the gifts of the Holy Spirit, right? All the believers equipped, well-equipped and we are all moving together. They're all serving God in different ways. It will surely impact the city. So, demonstrate the gospel and demonstrate the supernatural. And we know that once we are baptized in the Holy Spirit as Acts chapter 1 verse 8, it shows us that we are able to reveal the power of God. We become witnesses, right? It says witnesses. So, we become witnesses and we can overcome the power of the enemy. So, these are all things that we can do for city transformation. And of course, we have our other strategies that we have talked about earlier, things like prayer, intercession and walking in righteousness, exercising our authority through binding, losing. Now, this is very, very important. So, I don't know how many of us have been part of prayers where such prayers have been prayed over the city. But I've been part of some prayers just the way we said when we exercise authority, we command, right? When individually we speak to demon powers, we say things like, I command you in the name of Jesus, be gone, I passed you out in the name of Jesus, right? So, we are very firm about that and we speak over those individuals. Similarly, when it comes to the city or the nation, we can speak over our city and nation. So, how exactly to pray, how exactly to intercede? So, we can pray prayers of repentance, first of all. So, it will look something like, you know, we even if we have not done it, let's take for example, idolatry or corruption, we can say, Heavenly Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus on behalf of my city, Bangalore. And I repent of idolatry, I repent of, you know, every worship which is not unto you, I repent of the corruption in my city, I repent of the crimes in my city. So, basically, you begin there, you repent on behalf of the sins of the people. And then, you know, you begin to ask God, Lord, I pray that you would heal the land, you would bring restoration, that you would revive lives, Lord, you know, that you would do your, you would establish your kingdom here. So, thy kingdom come. We would pray and ask God to replace all these evil things with the work of God. But there's also a place for you can declare, right? You can declare. So, you could declare that my city, I bless my city with peace. God has given me the authority to bless my city with peace. On the basis of Jeremiah 29-7, you know, pray for the peace of the city where you have been planted. So, you can say, I declare there is peace in my city. Or you can make declarations such as, as a watchman on the wall, like Isaiah 62 on the basis of that, you can say, as a watchman on the wall, you know, I stop every unrighteous, unrighteousness, you know, in the area of money from entering the city. I stop, I command. So, what are we doing? We're taking authority. And we are also battling against demonic powers. Don't forget that. And as we have discussed earlier, when it comes to regions, there are principalities and powers that dominate over regions, okay? And it's not so, you know, I'm not saying, oh, they are strong. So, get scared of them. You know, the other individual demons are not strong. It's not like that. But when we take on principalities, you know, powers and authorities, their strongholds, their fortresses, we as a people, you know, it's always helpful when we all pray together. That's why we keep saying, you know, pastors coming together, believers coming together, leaders coming together, the church praying together. It's very powerful because it's a, it's a power. It's a prayer of agreement across, you know, hearts and minds. And in one accord when we pray, it is very effective in dislodging these authorities, principalities, powers. We're talking about hierarchies or demons and demonic authorities in the heavenly places against the city, against the region, right? So, that's how we approach it. We first repent and then we ask God to establish his kingdom. We make declarations, Lord, maybe prophetic words. Sometimes we have prophetic words over the city. Lord, you said that you are going to make this city a city of rejoicing and not of mourning. So, what are the prophetic words over the city? Speak them. What are the words in the word of God over the city? Speak them. Take authority. You can say, I stopped this. I bind this. I lose peace over my city. I lose, you know, the presence of God over my city. So, we can pray prayers like that. It's totally fine. But the most effective way of doing this is as a body, corporately. So, for city transformation, it is best to do it corporately. Okay. So, any questions so far? Okay. No problem. So, you can always post your questions on the stream page. It will be available. Okay. Thank you. It'll be available. Like access to the stream page will be available for you till the end of this course. So, if you suddenly think, oh, I need clarification. Please feel free. You can post there. I will continue. So, what also we want to share at this point is, one is because we're talking about, you know, these demonic powers and spiritual authorities and all that. We just want to remind us that, you know, one should not become very demon conscious. So, it's possible that, you know, we kind of become so caught up with this demon over the city and that demon and, you know, I'm praying against this demon. So, instead of being demon conscious, be very God conscious. And we can be God conscious. Another very important thing we can do when we pray for city transformation is worship, right? Worship, praise. So, we participate in things like that. So, when we are praising, worshiping God, the presence of God comes and it takes over, right? And sometimes automatically without even, you know, going against a certain power or principality, they automatically get dislodged. They get destroyed because the presence of God has come, the power of God has come. So, we can host the presence of God as well. So, don't become very demon conscious, devil conscious, but be more God conscious and host the presence of God. Then the other important thing for us to remember is spiritual mapping. I think I have mentioned this sometime back to all of us. So, there is a practice, okay, called spiritual mapping. And I think it was made popular by people like Peter Wagner, one of the leading, like he stewarded the apostolic, you know, the truth about the apostolic movement and all that. So, they started this concept of spiritual mapping. So, in the spiritual mapping, what they do is, they take the map of the place that they want to pray for and they also figure out which are the demonic strongholds, you know, over parts of that region. So, geographically, they might say, oh, okay, this place is affected by the demon of alcohol. Another portion is affected by some other strongholds. There are this kind of this worship going on there. So, it is this demon, that demon. So, you basically make a map of the different areas and different principalities. So, then you know who to pray against, right? Now, this is good. It's helpful to do this spiritual mapping. But sometimes, people have spent a lot of time just doing this mapping exercise, okay? And it may not be that important to kind of spend so much time making an entire detailed map. Instead, yeah, okay, we have an idea of which demonic strongholds are there. Just go ahead, pray, speak the truth of God's word and see the power of God manifest. So, that's how we would, that's what we would suggest. Like, don't become very concerned about spiritual mapping. And this other thing that we've said is backlash. Sometimes, when we minister, we have this feeling that now that I am praying for the city, now that I am praying against demonic strongholds, they will attack me. That is backlash, fear of backlash. So, for that, as we have stated earlier, one is in the book of Job, we know Job says, what I have feared has come upon me. So, when we fear something, we are actually opening the door for that to happen in our lives. So, don't fear. Don't even imagine that you're going to be attacked because where does it say that it has to happen? So, that's not biblical. So, fear will open the door. So, don't fear. Second is, go by God's word in Luke 10, 19. We see that Jesus says, you will trample on the, you know, like the scorpions and the serpents. And nothing by any means shall hurt you. So, He's already said that nothing by any means shall hurt you. And it says, 1 John 5, 18, those are walking with the Lord in righteousness that the evil one cannot touch you. So, how many more scriptures do we need to understand that, hey, we are already protected. We already have, you know, God's covering on our lives and Satan cannot do anything to us. We can stand against the viles of the devil as Ephesians 6, 16 says. So, no need to be afraid. We can take our position. And as we do this, you know, God can transform our land. He can transform our city. There's a beautiful example here in our notes. It talks about a place called Hebron. So, Hebron is a place of friendship, a place of, you know, association. But before it was Hebron, it was known as Kirjat Arba. And Kirjat Arba is a place where there were giants. And it was not a pleasant place. People would be scared to go to that place. However, we find in scripture that in Joshua chapter 14, Caleb is a man of faith and a man of courage. He says, okay, give me my portion of the land. And He takes that portion of the land and He goes against the giants, right? So, He displaces all the giants. And when that happens, the place is transformed. And it is renamed from Kirjat Arba, which is a place of the giants. It becomes transformed into a place known as Hebron, a place of friendship, right? So, even our cities, they can be the place where there are giants of corruption or all kinds of evil. But we can see these places being transformed as a place of worship, as a place of righteousness, as a place of God's presence. If we can go against the enemy in the right ways and, you know, uproot strongholds, city transformation or regional transformation can take place. So, that's a little bit about city transformation. I'll now jump to the next subject here. And if you all have any questions, you can always stop and ask. So, this last section is about some key things to keep in mind. First is boundaries. Yes, we have spiritual authority, but we should not be in error when we think that, oh, I have all authority on heaven and Jesus said, you know, it's mine, I give it to you. We have the authority, but God honors boundaries. So, let's say God's plan for the human race. I cannot use my spiritual authority to change it. Jesus had to come. Now, if somebody wanted to stop Jesus from coming to the earth, we cannot use their authority to stop it. Now, Jesus is going to come back, second coming and you know, the end times, things that are going to take place. Can I stop God from doing what he has planned for the earth? Cannot. So, spiritual authority is not meant for that. So, we cannot oppose the plans of God. We cannot go against the written word of God. That is a given that we understand. Now, when it comes to people, over there also, controlling and manipulating people with the help of our authority, for example, as a parent, I want to control my child or as a spouse. I want to control my spouse. I want to control, as a pastor, I want to control the people in the church. Can I use my authority to do that? No, you cannot because spiritual authority is not meant for that and that's not the right use of spiritual authority. It is what we call as violation. Violation is, it is against the legal rules. When you try to use spiritual authority to do all these, you know, wrong things outside of the boundaries. So, we have to be careful and even when there is unbelief, you find that Jesus, you know, sometimes there are those statements in the Gospels where Jesus went and he wanted to heal the people but he could not do anything because of their unbelief. So, even unbelief is a boundary. When there is unbelief, God wants to do but it's not happening. You see? So, God's authority, you could say, it will not work effectively if we don't honour boundaries but when people are being controlled, you know, spiritually, what is that? What is that called? It has a, you know, not so nice term to it. It's called witchcraft, right? That's what people do in witchcraft. What they do is they use spirits to control people, to control things the way they would like it. So, that's spiritual manipulation but we as believers, that's not our spiritual authority. I mean, that has nothing to do with what we are talking about because God has given all of us free will and he has defined the boundaries. Within our boundaries, our spiritual authority will work beautifully. We have to be careful about that. Now, what about failures? Last class, we had that discussion. What if I pray and I try to cast out a demon or I prayed so many times for revival, so many times for city transformation, pastor, nothing has happened. You see, when failures happen or you may call it a failure or you may call it disappointment or you may still be waiting to see the change. See, there is a learning experience, right, for those who want to learn. So, when things are not working, we can pray and ask God, Lord, help me to understand why? Why is it not working? Should I do something different? Is there some unbelief I have to deal with, right? The way in Matthew 17, the disciples went and asked Jesus, why could we not cast out the demon? And then Jesus gives them an answer. Such kind shall not go out except by prayer and fasting. So, in that way, we can try to learn what could have been the issue. Now, the issue could have been, that's not the moment. You don't understand the mind of God in that moment and then you step ahead of God so something didn't take place or faith is lacking or maybe sin, there is some unconfessed sin that is not dealt with or, as we have said, right, like the indeliverance steps and dedications which were unbroken, pledges, allegiances which are still not broken. So, legally, Satan holds them. But when you break those things, it happens. Deliverance happens easier. So, we have to figure out what is it? Why is it not happening? Then sometimes we deal with the symptom. So, we pray over the person, they'll seem better, but we didn't deal with the root cause, we didn't uproot, right? The actual issue like a dedication or something, we never revoked it and so, the problem repeats itself. So, in this way, we can learn why am I not getting success in this deliverance and learn from it and keep moving forward and close all entry points. We've said that when we do that, again, you know, demons come out easier, they don't reenter the person, post ministry care, post ministry suggestions are also important. Then one thing that we want to add here is, you know, sometimes we may not get the answer to all our questions, right? Like, we all have questions. I prayed it didn't happen. Why it didn't happen, right? Maybe for years we are asking God, what did I do wrong? Why did why did I not get the answer? But you know, somewhere there is that space in our relationship with God where we may not have all the answers, right? We may get the answers later or we may not get the answers. But whether we know fully or we don't, you know, understand the answers to these questions which we are asking, one should be maturing in God to such a degree that you say, okay, God, I know the truth of your word and that doesn't change. If you said you're a healer, you're a healer. Healing didn't take place, but I don't understand it, but it's fine. You know, I still trust your truth. I still keep going forward with your truth. So we should be okay to live peacefully with unanswered questions. Sometimes that also is important. Okay, so just and yeah, finally do it the Jesus way and remember that Satan is already defeated. He's under our feet and you and I can exercise the authority that God has given us. So with that, I'm going to stop here. Any questions? Any points for discussion? Okay, so yes, you could all just study this further, think about it. And if you have questions, please post it on the stream page. And I'm hoping to post your assignments today. And as I have stated earlier, the you know, like I expect you to do it all by yourself without any discussions with other friends. So please take some time out, sit by yourself, whatever you know you answer, and you will be marked or the marks which I'm going to take are the marks of your first attempt, because I noticed in the previous assignment, there were a couple of attempts, you know, that people had done. So there was some confusion. But yeah, the first attempt marks are going to be taken. So it's an exam, you look at whatever's posted, please sit by yourself. And I want your answers. Okay, so please keep that in mind. And yeah, with that second assignment, we are through with our course. And I'm still available accessible through the stream page through emails, if you have to ask anything, clarify something, please feel free to reach out to me. So we shall pray and close for this class. And I just want to request somebody on the group to kindly go ahead and pray, please, this last class. Okay, how about I, I just pray and close. Yeah, let's pray. Heavenly Father, we thank and praise you for the truth of your word, Father, for the understanding of the work of the cross that Lord be have the authority we need Lord to live victorious against Satan, all his schemes, all his attacks.
