Stop Fighting, Start Ruling: The Secret to Victory
Watch on YouTube ↗ Read transcript ↓
Summary
In one line: Christian warfare is from a place of victory, not deficit — stop spending sleepless nights fighting demons that are already under your feet (Romans 8:37).
Key points
- "My midnight prayer is intimacy with God — I have no time for demons." Popular African-style midnight warfare ("every family altar, every ancestral spirit") produces no change: "maybe you're not even popular enough for anyone to do witchcraft against you."
- "Don't believe me if I have no results" — but he casts out demons, heals and prophesies accurately; intimacy brings the Spirit who renews mind and strength.
- Only God establishes plans — if He doesn't establish a witch's plan, how can it work? "He gives His beloved sleep" (Psalm 127:2).
- Jesus prayed at night because no one was pulling on Him — seeking the Father's mind, not binding demons; demons simply bowed. Peter's shadow cast out demons (Acts 5:15).

There is a special uncction coming upon you.
I receive.
God is enabling you.
Yes, I receive.
The question is this. Will you trust God to fight for you?
That is the real question.
Love you more. That is the real question.
Will you allow God to fight for you?
That is the major problem. And will you allow him to fight for you in the way he should fight for you?
You see now reading this passage, you see how useless spiritual warfare can be.
We are going to fight the devil tonight. God didn't call you to fight him. He's already under your feet.
Yes. Hallelujah.
applause
I'm sorry. My midnight prayer is intimacy with God. I have no time to deal with demons. Those are already under my feet.
That's right. Amen. I have no time
applause
to dedicate my nights to doing spiritual battles for what am I no more the Bible says you are more than a conqueror but you're spending the night sleepless fighting demons
that you have already overcome [cheering] Christians spiritual battle is from a place of victory not a place of deficit [applause and cheering]
hallelujah
we deal with the devil from a place of victory
yes Because we are more than conquerors.
This business of you see people in THE MIDDLE OF THE EVERY DEMON. AH, I'm sorry.
And you will never see results either.
But because people like to feel like they are spiritual, they will keep doing it too. If you just took that midnight prayer
which is very popular in Africa in Africa.
If you just switch that out and maybe this will be my nights of worshiping and asking God to reveal himself the way your life will change. Do you realize there is no change in fighting witchcraft? Every witchcraft against me maybe you are not even that popular that anyone is doing witchcraft against you. [applause and cheering] every family altar your family maybe they never did ju guju every ancestral spirit maybe you have none it's only Christians that I have seen that keep doing something that doesn't work but they keep doing it
it's insanity now many will listen to me and say ah you see no listen I speak because I have results
and not only do I have results
guys if I could not cast out demons don't believe me.
If God could not use me to heal people, don't believe me. If God didn't speak to me whereby I tell you something and you see it happen exactly how I told you, don't believe me. Then listen to somebody else. But if I have results and I'm telling you,
your intimacy with God will change you because the Holy Spirit will come. He will renew your mind. He will renew your strength. He will tr it is real change.
Spending two hours on demons ah
applause
Because this you imagine you imagine the Bible says the Bible says it like this God is the only one who establishes anyone who plans it will not work. He's the only one who can establish something and it works.
Is it not in your Bible?
So your witch in your village or your cousin who is doing witchcraft or your sister or your auntie
if God doesn't establish their witchcraft do you think it will work? How can it work against you?
No, no, no. You're you know the Bible says God gives sleep to his beloved. You you are spending night or Jesus used to pray late at night. It is true. Why was he praying at that time? Because it was the only time no one was pulling from him.
But he wasn't spending the night doing spiritual war warfare.
He was intimate with his father. He wanted to know his father's mind. There is no scripture that tells you that Jesus was spending the night casting demons. He was pursuing the mind of his fathers, receiving strength and comfort from his father. He wasn't spending that time binding demons. Demons saw him and they bowed.
Peter and them rose to a level WHERE THEIR SHADOW CAST out demons. They didn't spend midnight prayer casting out devils. Now, am I hating on midnight prayer? No. I pray late too, but I don't waste my time with devils. For what?
Why?
