 Okay, good morning and welcome. Let's get started with today's class. Let's pray first and then we will continue with our lesson. So would maybe Prince of Imel, either of you, please pray. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Lord. Thank you for today and thank you for everything you gave us Lord Jesus. Lord, I submit this class into your hands Lord Jesus. Help us to learn more and help us to learn from your word and thank you for everything Lord Jesus. In Jesus name we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Alright, so so far we have learned about spiritual authority and about the nature of Satan and demons. We've also learned about the fact that Jesus has won the ultimate victory for us on the cross of Calvary. But before I go further, right now we are talking about, you know, what we can use our authority over. So we said that Satan and all his demons, the works of Satan such as sickness, certain situations, demonic influences, you know, we can use it over all these things. But before I continue, I just want to ask us if you know, and there's something particular that has stood out for you regarding believers authority, the practice of believers authority, then you can share. So let's do a little bit of sharing today and then I'll continue with our lesson. So even online students, please be prepared to share because then, you know, it's more enriching for us. Okay, so yeah, let's take some time to share our thoughts, what we've learned. Okay, we'll let whoever wants to share or something new, things that you were not aware of earlier, but now, you know, it's a it's a learning. Okay, so please feel free. We have somebody here. Jack, after the sharing, first sharing, if you would like, please do share. Yes, first. Yeah, go ahead. What I learned some for me, what stood out to me was I think last class that you said about backlashes, like from the devil, that if we if we like stand against him, if we overcome him once, he's not going to come back to us, or he's not going to retaliate. And the thing is, we have to remain strong and still have this so overcoming attitude that Christ has given us that authority. And the other thing that was appealing was this part where there is a higher levels, higher levels, that was something new that I learned. And yeah, that's good. Thanks, Rin. So these are some new things that Rin has learned through the sessions. Yeah, Jack, you want to share next and anyone else after that, please be ready. Yeah, so for me, personally, I thought like Jack, we're not able to hear you. Just give me a moment. I'll have the audio fixed. Yes. Yes, Jack, go ahead. Sorry for that. Okay, can you hear me now? We can hear you. We can hear you. Yeah, so for me, something that I learned very new was I thought this believer's authority over devil is given only for certain people and they have the gift and we should not pray about it and we should not put our mind and thought but as the lessons were progressing, it was like, it is the power of God within me and as I discipline myself and walk in faith, so already God has given me the authority. So it's like walking in the spirit. So I automatically put the flesh of myself or whatever I'm doing in control, then already I have the authority in me. God has given me the spiritual keys. So whatever comes, he will give me the discernment and the Satan is under my feet. So by faith, I keep declaring God's word and bind every stronghold in Jesus' name. It's not alone for myself. It's also for others. So that is something that I learned that God gives me that discerning through his word and as I live in his presence so close to him as we walk in the spirit, this is also our something that I learned is it's also in me. It's already given in me and it's just that I've not used it so many years like there was in one lesson that we learned that it's of no use. I was just not using it but that was literally what God said. He has given me the authority and we are above the devil and everywhere. Greater is he who is within me than who is in the world. So all those words I knew but I was not actually using it. But this lesson was something that in faith as I grow in the Lord and walk in the spirit, authority is given. So I praise God and thank God that now like whenever I see something like I don't get scared, usually I'll be full of even as Rin was sharing that backlash I always used to fear. But now I say no Lord, I am your child. I am washed by your precious blood. You've given me the authority and Satan has no power over me. So that is something that is so powerful and I have the confidence and I'm also keep telling my family about this. Praise God. Thank you. Thank you, Jack in really appreciate you sharing that. So if there's anyone else, yeah, Prince wants to say something and after that, I mean, I am just looking at names here and I'm just like that. I'm calling out your names. Feel free. Either you can share or someone else Viku. If you want to share, please do Nina, Nina, John. If you would like, please share with the others. So we'll go with Prince. For me really like the whole subject of believers authority is really a very learning cause even though we are brought up in Christian families and all, but we really never know that what the authority that really we have in Christ Jesus and especially like from my childhood, like I was as much as I'm scared. But I'm also like kind of fascinated to words, these things like seeing people casting out demons, how demons will manifest and all those things. But I really never know that we have been given this authority. We have that in us. Yes. So it's like learning all this like really, it's really encouraged me so much like now it's like there's something inside of me so bold to face those things. I really no need to fear of when I saw these things because I've been convicted that nothing by any means has power over me. True. True. It's really a very blessing. Praise God. Yeah. Yeah. Praise God really encouraging to know that this is what the Lord is speaking. So just a moment, Nikhil. Anyone online? Okay. Go ahead, Nikhil, you can share. Before also, also I have seen many peoples. So like they are casting out demons. So I thought Jesus gave them power like something like so they are special powers, especially power. So I thought really Jesus gave the power. So after Jesus, this believer's authority, I learned. So Lord, Jesus also gave us authority. Jesus gave everyone given authority that we can also cast out demons like how Bible says if we are sent so we have that science, we can cast out demons. So we will have that science like Chin. So we will have Chin. So we will cast out demons. So because we are son and daughters, gods and daughters. So that's I love these things. So I can also cast out demons. Amen. Amen. Yeah, that's true. All of us can, you know, we are all fighting against authorities, spiritual authorities. So whatever need arises, whether it's rebuking a demon, casting out a demon, rebuking a sickness, whatever is the need, we can do it. Okay, so thank God for that. Yeah, feel free. We can keep this up for a couple of minutes more. Yeah, can share. For me, it's like totally different. Like from my childhood, I used to hear like Satan is only one person lesser than God. Satan is? Only one person lesser than God. One step lower than. Oh, okay. I was to hear that. Okay. People used to tell like, don't play with Satan. You know, Satan is a power to do anything. This and that. I was living like that only. But after this class, I'm really so glad and I learned many things like the power, the authority. Satan is nothing. Now what I learned from this is really helpful for me. I stood thing like differently, you know, like, because the people used to say that Satan is only one step down means he have also every kind of power like God have. But after this class, I learned like, yeah, in front of even in front of us, Satan is nothing. The power we have the authority to where we can do anything like we can cast, we can command Satan to get out from anywhere. So this is really helpful to me. And yeah, I learned many things through this man. Yeah, sure. Thank you. Thank you for that. Of course, you know, we understand that we have dominion over Satan demons and their works. But at the same time, you remember Jude, we said that we must there is a certain way of dealing with Satan. So we cannot, we cannot, how do I say, we can't cross our limit also. Okay, so that's one thing we can keep in mind. But I understand, you know, where you're coming from. So that's good to know that, you know, we're all getting understanding that, you know, we are overcomers. The end of the day, if we are a believer, anybody who is a believer, not just the leaders, pastors, apostles, teachers, yes, they have a special grace. And their authority, you will study about it later that when God positions people, those are known as offices, okay, five-fold ministry offices, there is a certain authority that God gives them. Okay, that's a different authority. But when it comes to the normal authority for every believer, it stems out of Jesus' victory on over Satan, which we all have. Every believer has that authority. Okay, like even little children, if they know what Jesus has done for them on the cross, then they can have authority, they can experience that authority, they can use it. So that's how it is. But main thing is to gain that understanding and live with that understanding. So does anybody want to share? Okay, Vimal, you can share, then I'll get into the lesson. Because I'm from Hindu background, so I grow up in those things, demons and all. And in my area, we used to do puja and all there. So I used to see every day those types of things. And every day something is happening in our home, in our families. So I was so afraid about that. I thought, I'm so afraid about demons and all. But when I get to know the name of Jesus, and after coming here, and I saw what we have, so now I'm not afraid of those types of things. And I'm able to tell them, I have Jesus Christ, who is more power than you. And I know what authority I carry and what name I carry. So everything God did for me, it's like very powerful. Amen. Amen. Praise God. Thank you, Vimal. Thank you for sharing that. As you were sharing, I remembered one mission strip that some of us went on. And in that mission strip, there was a young girl from our church. I think it was also her first mission strip. We went and after the after the sessions, there was the last session on Holy Spirit baptism. So we started praying. But when we started praying, people were being baptized in the Holy Spirit. But at the same time, a lot of people were manifesting demon spirits. So that was a new experience for us. We went and we were just laying hands on people and they were getting filled with the Holy Spirit. But there were so many people who were manifesting demon spirits that then we decided, okay, let's do this. The people who went, I think it was four ladies, four of us, we all stood in a row. And we said, make lines, because those many demons had to be casted out. You make lines and whoever wants demons to be casted out, you come. So there were lines like this girl, that young girl, she, one line was in front of her, one more line in front of me. And then these other two ladies, they were doing it together. So one line over there. And I remember in our dental college, when we used to have a lot of patients, particularly one department surgery, surgery is when you extract teeth. And in our college, we used to get a lot of patients. So literally, it'll be like plucking a flower, okay, next, next. So sorry to say it like that. But that's how it was for us. One row, we just give the anesthesia, the second, we'll just come and pluck, pluck, pluck, and then keep going. So it was somewhat like that. That girl also, she's casting out like, okay, in the name of Jesus, I command you demon devil, come out, and that person will fall flat and the people come take and go next, next. So we were doing that, we were doing that like some half an hour or 45 minutes. We are just casting out demons. So many people, you know, afflicted by demons, it was someplace in the North as well. So I was just thinking, you know, thank God, it doesn't have to be one man of God or woman of God, we have to go bring them like how Nikhil was saying, some people have the special powers. But now we understand, whoever it is, right, if you are a believer, then you have the authority, right. Only thing is, we have to learn how to use it. So later we will study, when we study about deliverance, we'll study that each situation is different. So for one person, I can just cast out for another person, I may have to do something more. So the way in which we minister deliverance will differ. But when we are established in the fact that, hey, any demon, come on, let's go, let's do what needs to be done because every believer has authority and I'll tell you, honestly, the person who cast out maximum demons was that girl and it was her first time. Okay, we were amazed. You're like, you're too good at this. How are you even doing it? She's like, I don't know. I'm commanding them and they are just going. And sometimes we were like, it's not happening, you take, you take, you cast out. Okay, so it's not so much about somebody having some special position. So we must recognize that and the more we are submitted to God, remember, we said that so we can flow in greater authority when we are submitted because then Satan cannot say, oh, look at you. This is wrong in your life. You're allowing my demons to work in this area of your life. So how much authority we can have will depend on how much submission we have, right, towards God. So I know front door is closed, but close the back door also. No door should be open. That's the best way for us to walk in great authority. Right, so more stories will come up later. Yes, Vimal. Before that, like if someone is possessing with demon, so what we used to do, we that time we are so scared, we used to ask to that person what you want and he used to tell like, I want this sacrifice, I want that, I want that, then only I will leave this. But now when we know Jesus Christ, we don't have to ask what you want. Yeah, just go out. Okay, yeah, okay. Yeah, that's true. Right, whatever needs to be done, Jesus has already done it. But later we will see during deliverance. Sometimes it seems I have not had that experience, but they say like demons, no, they will ask, give me this, I want to eat this, I want to drink, but we will tell them deliverance, don't give them. They will ask many things, but don't waste your time. Because I mean, why are you doing hospitality for the demon? Right, so our job is to get them out. So we will do that. Okay, so right, we'll talk more about stories of deliverance later. But now we know that, you know, we have authority. So I'm looking at a comment here where Prabhu is saying dimensions of authority, we looked at in the previous class, give even more confidence to exercise our spiritual authority over Satan and his works. Yes, praise God for that Prabhu. Yeah, so, you know, I said in the last class that authority is the same, but the different sides of that authority, how we have obtained it, you know, we have understood through all those terms, right, delegated, inherited, so on and so forth. So now, moving on to this chapter here, which talks about where and all we can use our authority, we said demonic influences, demonic works. So the key is you identify, you and I identify. So if we don't identify, then what will happen? We'll tolerate it. We'll say, ah, it's okay, you know, oh, the sickness, yeah, it has come from God, God is doing a deep work in my life, right? Do sicknesses, diseases help a person become better? Well, we do see in the book of Hebrews that Jesus, through his sufferings, right, he was made perfect. So that simply means that when we walk with obedience, there is, there is, like, it brings out good, it brings out the best, but that doesn't mean that sickness originates from God, okay? When sickness comes, if we respond in the right way, the rest, the right response is to have that sickness removed. But for whatever reason, let's say, somebody is doing all the right things by scripture and they are still sick, but in that season, they maintain a good attitude, you know, they develop patience, all that's okay, all that's okay, but we shouldn't say that we need sickness to develop virtues. That is not what the Bible says, all right? So when we identify, first of all, we have to identify what is not from God and then we have to go against it. So there can be sicknesses which come upon us, which are actually an oppression. Remember, in oppression, we said that most of the time it's mental, but sometimes it can also manifest as a physical thing and we have to get rid of it. So demonic influences can be over a region and we can exercise our authority. One example is Paul, when he ministered in the city of Philippi and also we could see that he ministered in the city of Ephesus, okay? So in the city of Philippi, when he cast out a demon, a lot of people started trusting in God just by a deliverance. So even today, that is possible. If you just go and minister deliverance, that demonic stronghold in that area is broken, okay? In Ephesus, we see same thing, lot of deliverances and all happen, that even those who are practicing black magic, right? In that city, they bring all their equipment, you know, they have their things of worship, they bring everything and they burn it. So an entire region, a geographical region can see a renewal, okay? Because of us dealing with demonic powers. So we can do that over demonic habitations. So sometimes we say that, remember spaces can also have demons in them, certain spaces can be dedicated to demons. Now what if we have to go there? Like there is no other option, right? Let's say we are traveling and we have to go somewhere for our work and then people tell us, oh, this place is like this, there is some issue here, some demonic strongholds. But we now don't have an option, we didn't go there by choice. We can, you know, we can have authority over whatever that demon is doing in that place. So something as simple as I do this, like when we travel, you know, we're staying in some place, you can just sanctify the place. So I pray, I always say like, okay, by faith, through the blood of Jesus, I sanctify this place where I'm staying, okay? And no matter what demonic activity is here, I rebuke it. In Jesus name, it will have no influence over me. So we can say things like that. And you can just sanctify that habitation that that place and you can stay there, right? So you can have authority in all these simple ways, objects and artifacts, you know, sometimes there are certain objects. We saw that in Deuteronomy, God said, those objects which are used for pagan worship, you remove them. So we can have authority over those objects. We'll see later on that the best thing to do is to get rid of those objects. Even when we are ministering deliverance, we might, if we notice, hey, there is an object, that is the cause of the demonic influence. We'll ask them, hey, remove it, throw it, put it away. I remember once I had visited one brother and this was a Chinese family and they had become believers at that point and they had their altars. They had certain altars. So I've never seen anything like that. And the pastors of that church who were ministering to them, they had just come to Christ and they were discipling them. And so the day that I went over there, they said, today we have a session of burning those altars. So I've never seen in my whole life. So they brought all those wooden things to their compound and they kept it in the compound and they were huge wooden stuff and they lit fire to the whole thing and everything was burning in front of me. I was like, wow, I've never seen anything like this in my culture. But yeah, there can be some substances and things that carry the presence of demons. The best is to get rid of them. And in some situations, even if required, destroy it so that another person will not use it anymore. That's the intention. So yeah, objects, artifacts, if there are curses, witchcraft, sorcery, sometimes even believers, we get scared. We say, oh, what are they doing? But as we look at scripture, scripture tellers, there is no sorcery against Jacob. There is no witchcraft against Jacob. You know, in numbers, I think numbers 23, there is a scripture which says that. So we don't have to be afraid because our understanding is even if somebody is trying to do all these things against a believer, it won't work. It shouldn't work because now we are in the protection of the Lord. But if there are open doors, so what is the issue? The issue is open doors. If there are things that we are entertaining, things of sin, then yes, these things can influence. But otherwise, they don't really have to influence. So even people say curse, or somebody is cursing, somebody is putting spells. As believers, please don't be worried about these things because we have authority over these situations. Even organizations and institutions, if we notice influences from them, we can actually overcome. Okay, what else do we have authority over? Here it says, doctrines of demons. So doctrines of demons is teachings which are against what the Bible says, like even about Jesus. There are teachings in which it is said that, you know, Jesus is not fully man. So his sacrifice, he was already divine. So what's the big deal? You know, if he died and he rose, it was easy for him because he was a divine being. So what actually this teaching is saying is that it's a false teaching because it doesn't agree with what the Bible says. The Bible says he became, you know, the word became flesh, dwelt among us. We beheld his glory. Okay, so it's, it sounds good that Jesus, yeah, Jesus is the Son of Man, but he was not fully man. So you see, I'm just giving you one example of a false teaching. So there can be many such truths, so-called truths, which are put across, which are not in line with scripture, which, you know, make Jesus lesser than who he is and don't glorify God. So when such things happen, you know, we can even overcome, you know, such, such false things and many people are captive to wrong teachings, to cults. We usually say cult when they are, when they are subscribing to the wrong doctrine, false doctrine. We can even help in setting those people free because many of these wrong doctrines are demonic. It comes from the demonic world to keep people deceived. Okay, but we can set them free. There can also be messengers of Satan, messengers of Satan meaning so-called leaders of these false teachings and doctrines. I remember I shared about the man in Paphos. He was a sorcerer and because of him, others were not receiving the gospel. But once Paul dealt with him, it became easy so we can overcome. We can have authority over sickness, disease, death. We've talked a lot about that. We can have authority over circumstances and situations. We've talked about it. So just this week on Sunday, one of the students in our congregation, he came and he was sharing about how he's working for some agency and he has not been able to receive the remuneration. Okay, it's a freelance work but they've delayed it so much. So then we both just decided to pray together. Okay, and I told him also, you extend your faith. I'll agree with you. Let's pray and let's go against this delay in the name of Jesus. Now we don't know whether that delay is a natural delay or demonic delay. I'm not commenting about that but this is the circumstance. He's waiting and waiting and he's struggling because there are bills to pay so many other issues. I said, just believe, we'll ask God, we'll go against this delay, we'll ask for a miracle and then we commanded. We said, okay, money in the name of Jesus, he command you to come into that bank account because he has done the work. Okay, I'm not telling you do this. You have to do some work and then, you know, God blesses. He had done the work and he was waiting and waiting. So he said, okay, pastor, we'll see because I already waited so much. Okay, but the most amazing thing happened. He messaged me Tuesday night. We prayed Sunday afternoon around. He's like, the money is came into my bank account. So I was like, wow, the situation changed. And on that day when we were praying, I thought, how somewhere in my natural heart, I thought, how is it possible? I was like, no, no, no, don't go by the natural. It looks impossible in the natural, but in the supernatural, it is possible and he has done the work. So why should he not get what he has worked for? So this circumstance has to change. We command it to change. And I was so amazed when he messaged and said, pastor, you won't believe it. The money just came into my bank account. So circumstances, situations, use the authority and yeah, we see God moving then over natural elements. In fact, Jesus said, you shall do greater works. What is greater works? What is greater works? Will be greater than Jesus? Okay, maybe more. Okay, so we'll do greater works than Jesus, but we can't be greater than Jesus. Okay, we'll make that very clear. So what are the greater works? Sorry? Yeah, healing and deliverance. Signs wonders. Okay, dead to life. Jesus did everything. No, he also did. So more in number. That's true because the ministry of Jesus was about three, three and a half years. Okay, but how much the church can do because it's all of us, all our lifetimes put together and all the works that will happen. So basically what God was saying is many more works when we say greater works. So in and through every believer, many works will be done, many deliverances, many healings, many miracles, that is something we can expect. And when we say greater works, it is also things that are unusual. Okay, that could not happen in the time of Jesus, for example. In Jesus times, we don't see things like metal implant, surgery, all that nobody was doing, isn't it? But today it happens. And we have heard testimonies of people who said that the metal became bone. Okay, that is different because in Jesus time, there was no option of such things and therefore it didn't happen. But today some of these things are there or let's say there is no organ, somebody does not have a kidney or something like that. But when we pray supernatural, it comes. Right? So these things are what we are saying, greater works. So greater works, yes, but it doesn't mean we will become greater than Jesus. He's always the exalted one. And so we can expect. Now even when it comes to, you know, natural elements, we see the Lord Jesus taking charge. You remember the storm? There was a storm. It's a natural thing. But when Jesus commanded the storm, he said, peace, be still. It was calm. Even natural elements which are influenced by the demonic can respond. It can respond. Yeah, there's a movie. It's a Christian movie called as a faith like potatoes. Okay, so it's a story of a preacher who also was into farming. So at that time, when, you know, like the incidents in the movie that he records, there was a time when there was a fire in his farm. It was spreading and spreading and spreading and they were not able to control the fire. You know, so at that time, you know, he prayed for rain and there was no way in that season that it's going to rain. But then you see how the situation changed. It was almost surprising that it started raining. So in the natural, even weather and natural things, circumstances, sometimes, you know, we can see that there is a difference when we use our authority. Now, talking about Jesus, you know, there were other situations when Jesus walked on the water. Remember anybody tried walking on the water here? Just checking. Okay, thank God. Otherwise, I'll be very spooky. So when Jesus walked on the water, that's unusual, right? It's supernatural. With the authority that God has given us, these things can happen. You even see in the life of Jesus that sometimes natural laws are bypassed. Okay, or multiplying food. Isn't it? So through the authority that God has given us, even natural elements, natural circumstances, weather conditions, you know, we can exercise our authority. But here is the cautioning part. You know, we should not depend on it in the sense that now just because food multiplies, we didn't see the next day, you know, the disciples say, Hey, this looks like a nice business. You know, just pray break the bread, make more bread. Okay, you have a bakery, Peter, you have John, you have one bakery, let's all make money because food is multiplying. We don't even have to bake the bread or, you know, cook the fish. Food is multiplying. That's not how Jesus led them. He said, Hey, today there was a situation, abnormal situation when you all needed food. So food is multiplying. Every day, food is not going to multiply. We have to cook it. We have to grow it. Right? We have to make it. So normal is the standard. Sometimes there is the unusual. Same thing. It's getting late for Bible college. Let me walk on water. It's not going to happen. Right? If there was an unusual situation in which Jesus walked on the water, but normal, we have to do time planning all that, leave early, wake up early and then show up in college. So there's always a normal. Sometimes when there is a need, the natural laws can be sort of, you know, overcome and something new might happen. So, but we can expect, we can expect such things to take place even commanding the weather. Sometimes, yes, we can expect such things to take place. So, yeah, anything that you want to add or ask in chat. Oh, yeah, Nina. Yes, Nina, please go ahead. No, I've already posted something. So posted something. Okay, I'll read that through. So, Nina has written here. It was good to know that as believers, we need to be alert and watchful in not giving access to the enemy in any way. Also, that the believer cannot be possessed, but can be oppressed. We need to be on guard and use the weapons God has given us and not give the enemy a foothold. Yeah. So, thank you, Nina. Thank you for sharing what has touched you and you've learned through this course. I pray that whatever we are learning here will be applicable in our everyday lives. Yes, Rin. I have two questions relating to objects being possessed or having the demon spirit in them. First of all, how can we identify that an object has a demon spirit and the other thing is how can the demon spirit come on that object? Okay. So, usually what happens is objects of worship, anything that's meant for worship tends to have some sort of spiritual influence or demons living in them. So, when we look at an object and we sense that, hey, this is an object of worship or something like that, then best is to stay away from it. So, as believers, we are always cautious, but I think the issue is when maybe we are traveling and there are these souvenirs, we find some cute things in the market and they're being sold. We're not very alert anymore. So, we may just pick it up and say, okay, it's part of my travel. I'll take it home. Now, those are the moments when we really have to exercise our discernment and not take these things home or sometimes somebody brings in something or something is gifted to us and the way I look at it is, if I am in doubt, then I get rid of it so that my conscience doesn't keep telling me all the time, oh, it could be this, it could be. So, if you're feeling uncomfortable about any object, get rid of it. That's what I would say. Is it helpful? Yeah. Can we cast it out? Which one? What one? Can we cast it out from that object? Throw the object, no. Easier. Yeah. Okay. Handkerchief. Generally, normal objects, I would say no, like gadgets and stuff like that, but sometimes when they are dedicated, again, when they are dedicated, yes, they may have, but if it's a common object which you're using in your organization and all, just sanctify it in the name of Jesus and go ahead. Like if it's a mic which is dedicated, you still have to use the mic, right? So, you just say, okay, in the name of Jesus, I just sanctify these instruments. Lord, let it be used for your glory and go ahead with it. Yeah. Yes, Anand. Okay. So Anand is asking, what about kerchiefs that people use? So it happened in Acts 19. No. It's the same thing happened. So they were taking cloth which Paul used and with the cloth they were delivering and casting out demons. Why is it different? They're selling kerchiefs. Okay. Yeah. So what happens, Anand, is see the presence of God, okay? Or we can use the term the anointing of God. It can be carried in things. We see there is a biblical, you know, what do you say? Like a basis to that. It's biblical because in the case of Paul, it happened that the anointing was carried in cloth, okay? And that cloth when it was used for delivering people, they were delivered. So on the basis of that, even today, if we take any object, some people what they do, they pray over water, isn't it? They'll just pray and they say, okay, you drink this water, people are healed. Demons are cast out because by faith, we are releasing the anointing into that thing, okay? And it happens once again, once again, I'll just finish, then you can ask. Normal? Oil, yeah, oil, yeah. Yes, yes, oil also can be used. So the point I'm making is it's a biblical thing, okay? So if people today are doing that and people are getting delivered, that's okay. In the name of Jesus, somebody is receiving deliverance. That is good. But here is the bad thing to make a merchandise out of that. So sometimes what people start doing in the Christian circle, they start selling the oil, selling the kerchief, selling the thing. I don't see that in the Bible. So that doesn't make sense to me. So does it answer your question? That's what I was going to say that. And yeah, okay. Also I have a question related to that. Yeah. So like how the passing of the handkerchiefs and people were healed. So in the same way, if a handkerchief, okay, let's say if it has a demon spirit in it, can a person get demon possessed or something like that? Yes. Yes. Answer is yes. Which is why as believers, we must be careful, okay? And us believers being careful is one thing, but even unbelievers, right? They don't know. And so even simple things sometimes can influence. Yeah. And people do things like that. Any question? Okay. All right. So we've run out of time. We'll end this class. We will pray and close off. So could somebody from the online batch pray please? Father God, thank you, Lord. Thank you for this time, Lord, that you helped us to learn from your word, Lord, the authority that you have given us, Lord, in the name of Jesus and because of the cross, Lord, that you took for us, Lord Jesus. Father, thank you for giving us this knowledge, Lord, because your word says, Lord, without this knowledge, we are perishing, Lord. Father, thank you, Lord, for this time that the each of us are able to learn this truth about you, Father God. And you are greater than the one that is in the world. And you've given us faith every day to exercise this authority and whatever that we do, Lord, and whatever we come across, nothing is a surprise to you, Father. But when we learn to use your word, Lord, and to learn to live in faith, Lord, and in the spirit, Lord, and we do not overcome and we overcome every ax of the flesh, that it is your power being released upon us, Father God, that we're able to live in that full authority that you've given us on earth, Father God. Father, help each of us, Lord, to live in this authority, to declare your word and, Lord Jesus, our minister with your power, Lord, and so that we will be faithful ministers of you, Lord, wherever that we are. In Jesus' mighty matchless name we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, Jack. God bless you all. Have a wonderful weekend. And next week I will be posting the assignment for the online students. And I think the others also have their assignments. So please be prepared for that. Your first assignment is coming up. Okay. So all right. Thank you. God bless.
