Breaking from the Past and Claiming Authority 0:15 Are you stuck in the past? Do you find yourself continuing to make the same mistakes, same failures, same decisions repeatedly because of things from your past? Well, here's a verse for you. It is0:27 Isaiah 43 19, and it says, behold, I do something new. Will it not spring forth? Will you not be aware of it? I will make headway streams in the wilderness and even in the desert. God has new0:39 things for you today, and we wanna pray for you. That that new thing would replace all that past garbage. So hop on the phone, get on the website. We wanna pray for you. And know this, when we pray,0:51 when you pray, when we join faith together, God answers prayer. And that's absolutely the fundamental ground 0 truth. In fact, I heard a testimony the other day about a person who called in1:03 that needed a financial miracle, for their house to kinda get preapproved for their mortgage and lending and all that stuff, And God completely answered the prayer supernaturally. So hop on the phone, get on the website.1:14 God has miracles and wants to help you connect and walk out of that old stuff and in the victory and the freedom God has for you today.1:21 And I want you to know you have authority over the devil. And our guest today, John Ramirez, tells you how. And his book Armed and Dangerous isn't1:32 just all for a few special Christians. It's for you. It's for you. And we need to take the authority and walk in the authority. And I think so many times we haven't1:44 because we didn't know how. Here is the know how. So you have authority over the devil. Luke 10 19. He gives you power to tread on serpents, scorpions, over1:56 all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means harm you. Get ready, honey. You're gonna walk in authority. You're gonna stomp on the enemy. You're gonna see yourself as2:08 Jesus sees you, as the word sees you. Watch today and be transformed.2:17 You are not alone. Jesus loves you so much. I know in my life, I've struggled with depression and I was in a depressive season where I felt like there was no 1 around me and no 1 could help me. But2:29 Jesus revealed to me that he had never left me. You are not alone, Isabelle. He said, and that 1 sentence changed my entire life. And so if you feel alone, if you've never prayed to ask Jesus to come into your2:41 heart, or if you have and you wanna pray this again, I invite you to pray with me. Say Jesus, I thank you right now for the opportunity to get to worship you, the opportunity to get to love you. I receive your love. I2:52 receive your relationship. I receive your companionship and I wanna be in relationship with you. Jesus, would you come into my heart? Would you be Lord of my life? I submit it all to you. I submit my future. I submit my3:03 past and my present. Jesus, I love you. I chase after you. I desire you, and I want you to be my best friend. We thank you and we praise you. In your name, we pray Jesus.3:15 Amen.3:18 What can happen to you in this program? Have you ever thought about that? Well, yeah, I'm just turning on a Christian program, but what could happen to you? Could God give you a3:30 miracle from watching this program? Could God turn circumstances around in your life from watching this program? Could God give you some, can I say it like this, spiritual3:41 guts to say, wait? The devil's not gonna do that to me, to my household, to my physical body, to my finances. No way. Folks, we need guts.3:53 And I like this book, Armed and Dangerous, by John Ramirez because it has guts to it.4:00 Amen.4:01 And we need that very kind of thing. We need the guts to face the devil and say, I've already won. Jesus won. I'm in Jesus, and I'm winning in this situation and circumstance. You4:12 don't dare stop watching this program. You don't dare. This is just so important.4:19 The vice.4:19 So Sarah and I want to welcome you, John.4:22 Thank you so much for4:23 having me. Thank4:23 you so much. And, man, a blessing to be on your show.4:26 And we're so thrilled about what you are doing today to present to our people how to walk in the authority of the believer and not, well, the devil's after me. Hey. Come on.4:38 Jesus in you is greater. So would you share because actually you came out of a demonic background.4:47 I lived4:47 in the You know what it's all about.4:48 I lived in the devil's camp for 25 years. I I used to, you know, I I I, you know, I was going to demon church from 7 in the evening to 5 in the morning, you know, being groomed to learn how to take over regents, to learn5:00 how to operate with principalities.5:01 You went to territory. 10 hours Yeah. Throughout the night?5:04 Yeah. Throughout the night.5:05 That's nuts.5:06 When Christians are sleeping, I was I was up and I was up and doing the dirty work what the enemy wanted me to do. Astra projecting, drinking animal blood, putting curses in neighborhoods. So today, I today,5:17 out of out of my experience with the devil for 25 years, I know how the enemy works. I know the patterns and cycles. I know the I know how the enemy operates. I know how he thinks. I lived there for 25 years. There's5:29 nothing new in the enemy's camp. So I'm I wanna teach believers that we don't have to be spiritually anemic. We could be armed and dangerous. We can move. This is your this is this here, it is your must see5:41 to move the mountain out of your way to the prayers that would shake the devil's camp or rather his cage and set you free because we can't live as mediocre Christians anymore. There5:53 was a time that when I first started church, making long story short, started church, it was okay church. But I went to Times Square Church and I met pastor Dale Wilkinson. He he meant to me for 3 years. Awesome. I said,6:04 there gotta be more to this this is where I belong. This is the victory side. This is what a Christian is supposed to like. I'm in danger. And then my brother, Nicky Cruz, put the forward on this book. He put the forward6:16 in the book. He believe in this book. He understands spiritual how more how more than Nicky Cruz understand spiritual warfare? He came from gang violence. His family was the highest ranked devil worshipers in Puerto Rico6:26 at 1 time. So I'm I'm implementing the truth on this book that we are armed and dangerous to Jesus Christ, and the devil has nothing on us because we are victorious if we know how to use the weapons of our warfare.6:37 Now, I think something that some of you think, well, that's just not my ministry. You know, that's for somebody else. Is this ministry for everyone?6:47 If you call yourself a believer in Jesus Christ, you have a bull's eye on your back. I mean, I don't put myself in 1 category of ministry. I I, you know, I used to work I used to work for a delivery company right at 16:57 time and right? So, I run everybody's route because I want overtime. You know? I I needed to make money. Sure.7:02 So I7:02 don't know everybody's route. I I don't wanna be just in the healing ministry. I don't wanna be in the prophetic ministry. I wanna be anywhere that God can use me. Amen. So I wanna be armed, endangered, and equipped7:12 because the prayer, the essence of spiritual warfare is at hand today. Many Christians are being tormented in mind. Many Christians are oppressed, depressed. Many Christians, even Christians think they they have suicidal7:24 thoughts, you know? Yes. There's many Christians are are on heavy medication. Love Jesus Christ, but how do I get free? How do I win the victory? How do did did how is it that I'm being7:36 plagued? And how is it that God said he died for me, he set me free, how do I live on that victory side? And this is the book. It's not just talking about it, it's showing you and teaching you7:48 and equipping you how to do it.7:50 Another thing, I think identifying what some of these things are. Exactly. I think we put up with some things and we think, oh, well, you know, this is life. And so you really deal with some things. I8:02 like this on page, I think it's 41, of various spirits like sorrow8:09 Mhmm.8:10 Like rebellion Rebellion. Like wrath. Mhmm. You know, all of these things, those are the enemy. So we don't just lay down and say, okay. This is normal. Mhmm. We're supposed to be supernatural.8:22 And you're telling us what these things are. You have several pages on us.8:27 Many pages in the book. I mean, all these books are just and, you know, it just I want the believer to understand that that you can't you can't destroy something you can't identify. Because if you8:39 Say that again. You can't destroy something you can't identify. You can't bring down a target in the enemy's camp if you don't know where where it's at. So we so I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm showing you where the targets are,8:50 where you're being tormented, where your life is is is on a standstill, where your life is paralyzed. God has called us to move from glory to glory. So where am I paralyzed? When was the last time when was the last time8:59 you saw a glory moment in your life? Because you've been so plagued. You don't have you need to go into the devil's camp once and for all and Enough is enough. I'm destroying his targets. I'm bringing them down. My name9:09 and my family, my loved ones, my friends, and I got lived there, my husband, my wife. We're not living in that the district in that place of poverty or that space of Good. Torment. No more. Jesus Christ is Lord. I got my9:20 prayer life back together. I'm always dangerous. I know spiritual warfare.9:24 Tell us about your prayer life because you share some of that in here that is very good. And by the way, you need the book. You really do. And you say, well, I have some crisis. I have some torments.9:36 Well, call us for prayer. We don't counsel you, but call us for prayer. But the book will give you something lasting that, you know, prayer is quick and it's good. But get something that helps you live in9:48 it. Plus, aren't believers supposed to cast out evil spirits or is that just unique people?9:53 No. There ain't no unique people in the body of Christ. You know, we we we call to do great exploit. Jesus Christ say, I go to the father and greater works you would do. I'm I'm holding on to his promises because and10:02 then I can do anything. That means it's greater works means I can do anything. I can lay hands on people but get healed. I can cast out devils. I mean, I can I can heal the sick? I can I can I can pray for people for10:13 salvation? I can pray for people that are going for surgery. I mean, the devil shows up at at at at your surgery. He he wants you to be defeated. He wants you to think, you know, he wants you to think in a way that10:24 you're not gonna get the victory. We need to stand against the devil once and for all as the church of Jesus Christ and be the church of book of acts. Let's not be the modern church weak and the anemic spiritually.10:35 Oh, the book of acts is the acts of the holy spirit.10:38 Yeah. Exactly.10:39 Are we active? Are we letting the holy spirit be active in us?10:44 In us.10:44 And I I really think a lot of you, you say well I don't know how to do it, you know. That's why I like the book so much. Mhmm. It's the how to and you think well I'm not spiritual enough, you know. Well the word is10:52 spiritual. Mhmm. The word enough, you know. Well the word is spiritual.10:59 Mhmm. The word is spiritual.11:00 The word is is the spiritual weapon.11:02 Mhmm.11:02 It's a sword.11:03 It's a sword of the spirit. You know, I think what God made Christianity so easy for us. He said, if if your faith is the size of a mustard seed, I mean, go go go somewhere and put a mustard seed in your hand. If my11:13 faith is this, I can move any mountain. I mean, how easy God has made it for us to fight the good fight of faith. So, now, God took someone from the devil's camp for 25 years. I didn't sign up for Christianity. I didn't11:24 file no application. And put me into his kingdom to expose, to teach believers how to fight the good fight, to teach believer how to be armed in dangers. I'm teaching you. I'm not just telling you. I'm11:36 giving you a teaching lesson. Sign up for the class, get your degree, and move on and be victorious in Jesus Christ.11:44 And why should we let our families go down the drain?11:47 Right. And and 1 1 example, I I don't run off the off the couch, but I got a high school diploma. I don't have nothing else. Right? Yeah. And and I pray for my daughter. I pray. I broke the curse to prayer. To these11:59 prayers, I broke the curse. My daughter has a bachelor's degree in psychology. Because I took the rock 100 feet, now my daughter's throwing the rock 200 feet because her daddy knows how to pray for her.12:09 Nice. That's good. Good.Identifying Enemies and Guarding the Mind 12:11 The other thing you talk about is why is it important to guard our minds?12:15 I you know, because the mind the mind you know, the Bible said mind you we got a mouth gate. Right? Because we know 1 thing about the mouth gate, the ear gate, eye gate, the mind gate. The Bible knows that the the devil12:24 knows the battlefield is in the mind. You know, the battlefield is in the mind. Watch your words too. 18 Proverbs 18 21. If you speak death out of your situation, the devil, he's married to your to your debt worse, to12:35 your to your debt. Speak your debt speeches. We need to understand that the mind is what the devil knows how to infiltrate. If he can take over your mind, he can take over your heart. If he can take over your heart, he12:44 can take over who you are. And and then before you know, you're so far out of the things of God because you let the devil take real estate in your mind.12:53 And nobody can afford that. Nobody can afford that. So hop on the phone, get on the website, grab your copy today. Get a couple of copies because I bet you that you know a couple of people at least minimum in your life13:04 that are being targeted by the devil, oppressed, influenced, and they need victory.

Some of the things you talk about in Armed and Dangerous, and we're obviously not gonna, like, do the whole book because clearly, you need to get the15:30 book. Right. 1 of the things we were just saying is get the book and start your own prayer group. I'm serious. This is absolutely essential because what happens when you join together and you pray together in a15:42 community, in a small group, man, oh, man. 1 can chase 1002 can put 10000 to flight. So how much more if you get a couple of people around, faith filled people and you start praying and taking offensive, aggressive,15:54 violent, moving forward, faith against the enemy? Man, I'm telling you, you'll see victories like that will completely blow your mind. But so grab your copy, get a couple of copies, start a small group, prayer group. But16:06 how can we recognize the lies and the attacks of the enemy? Because the enemy comes around and he does a lot of smoke screen. Right? Disguise and camouflage and you can't recognize and how can you fight what you can't16:17 find, can't see, can't recognize. So help us with that.16:20 I I think I think 1 of the greatest, examples in the word of God. Right? I mean, we gotta go back to the word. The word, I mean, the Bible is the only altar that's still alive. Amen? So, I I'm amazed by that. Nice.16:30 Awesome. 1 of the things about, you know, even the devil quoted Psalms 91 to Jesus in the wilderness. He distorted the word, you know. So I think the essence of the whole thing, we need to be grounded in God's word. I16:40 think we need to understand the word of God. We need to live the word of God. We need to understand the word of God in the supernatural. Not the religious, but they got religious spirits out there. So don't don't hold on16:48 to religious spirits because they're gonna deceive you. You know, they they they gonna they gonna lead the wrong path, but the word of God is true. It's a 2 edged sword. And I think that the the the thing that we know16:58 that we need to understand how is the word of God operate in my life, you know, in my mind, in my spirit, you know. And we need to understand the spirit man need to understand that and we need to walk on that, not in the17:07 flesh, not in the soul situation as much as we need to renew our mind and heart and spirit and soul. But we need to understand how the devil works. The devil's want a little darts, little little arrows, little little17:17 temptations, little gestures. Mhmm. And then he tried to marinate those things because once he painted that scene in your mind, he start to marinate it little by little. And before you know it, you know,17:28 it's it's in the in the book of Psalms 91. Right? It speaks about the the follow. Right? The follow of the devil, the entrapments of the devil. I think that that 1 of the the dangerous 1 is a small line. The thing that I17:38 think that we could entertain. The thing that the devil thinks that he can control us with a little little things, you know, that we think we can put away, but once it grows, right, you can't put it's like having a17:49 pitbull. You can have a small pitbull. Right? And he's playful, but when that thing grows 170 pounds, he's a beast. You know, you can't play with him anymore. He has a bite. So I think the enemy uses I'm using that18:01 metaphor how you're using in Psalm 91, how he he plants there's a small line. There's a little things that he plants in your mind, in your thoughts, in in your dreams, and we entertain and we start drifting away from18:11 him. We start caring more about that than the word of God and how to stand.18:14 And it's those conversations in the mind. Yes. Yes. And the way we feed, because that little pit bull Mhmm. I mean, you can't grow the pit bull if you don't feed the pit bull.18:22 Yes.18:22 And what happens is when we give that those suggestions and those whispers and insinuations, we would start having that conversation. We start thinking about it. Start giving it time and attention and our thoughts18:33 and releves what it Yeah. We start to read it.18:35 Conversation. Right? And we don't even catch that.18:37 We don't catch that.18:38 And that is such an essential ingredient. And I'm I'm telling you right now, some of you are watching, and you're you're recognizing, oh my goodness, take every thought captive that raises itself against the lordship of18:48 Jesus. Grab your copy of this book. This book will absolutely supercharge your prayer life and offensive victories over the enemy, particularly in your thought life because that's where all that19:00 stuff starts. It's up here and kinda and just the entertainment and those subtle insinuations, little suggestions.19:05 Yes. Yes. And, you know, I think and the enemies are bringing things up from the past. Oh, remember you used to be afraid of this. Remember you have fear in this. Remember remember you didn't feel right about this and19:13 for and then you start to tend to these things. You start to these things start to captivate your thoughts, your thinking, your mind. And throughout the day, all you're doing is start thinking about it. The enemy already19:22 planted a foothold. He already planted real estate in your mind, and now he's taken over. And we can't give the enemy of, the Bible said we can't give the enemy a foothold all of our mind, our thinking, our walk, our19:31 life with Christ. Is Christ alone? That's why if you're in that situation today, if you feel like you're trapped in your mind, you feel like you're hostage in your own mind, you know, and you're being tormented in your19:42 mind. Man, it's time to get that book. It's time to break those patterns or cycle uproot those things and fill it with the Holy Spirit. Fill those areas in your life. Or if you have voice in your heart, because sometimes19:51 the enemy put voice in your heart and you feel lonely, you feel depressed, you feel like God doesn't love you anymore, and and you you already entertaining that situation. You need to, man, you need to get that an20:00 eviction notice.20:01 Mhmm. I think Sarah too, it concerns me about the millennials.Show more In this video 0:00 Breaking from the Past and Claiming Authority12:10 Identifying Enemies and Guarding the Mind20:02 Overcoming Deceptions and Offensive Prayer28:30
