Don knew demons were real, but not much more than that. He began his deliverance ministry by a kind of divine accident. He says, “A female inmate at a women’s prison in Ontario, Canada, had been writing to me and had told me she felt that she had demonic oppression and wanted me to help her.
“This woman, Kathy, had been raised in a home where she suffered satanic ritual abuse and knew what she was dealing with. I worked with her by mail over months to repent of past actions and forgive those who had harmed her, as these are doorways for demons to come into a person’s life.
“When she was ready, I contacted a minister who was experienced with deliverance and went through the lengthy process to get permission to do this deliverance at the prison. On the day appointed, I arrived at the prison, but I found that the other minister was not able to arrive as he had planned.
“However, Kathy was prepared, so I decided to try to do it myself. I told her that I would ‘bind the demons.’ When I said this, her facial expression completely changed. She got a strange look and a weird intensity came into her eyes. Kathy started talking in a man’s voice. I knew the demons were present.
The Encounter with Kathy
“Speaking in a man’s voice, the demon said, ‘I am going to kill you. Someone is going to die today and it is going to be you.’ I said, ‘I am washed in the blood of Jesus and the power of death and life is in my tongue, not yours.’ Then I commanded the demon to apologize to me, and he did. We are somebody in Christ. It is exciting that a demon has to bow in the name of Jesus — every time.
“I began to bind the demons and commanded them to reveal their names because Jesus had done this with the demons of Gadara. As they gave their names, I bound them and commanded them to leave her. This was a very dramatic deliverance; usually, it is not much more than prayer.
“Kathy was instantly changed. Her face looked younger, and she had a sense of joy and peace. She remains free of torment to this day.”
Don’s Reflections on Deliverance and Demons
With the extensive scriptural research Don has carried out over the years, this is what he has to say about demons:
Many think that teaching about deliverance from demons has no place in modern Christianity.
However, in Matthew 10:1-8, the disciples were told to heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons, and raise the dead. Also, the common misconception that only evil people can have demons is only further from the truth. If you are alive, you are a candidate for satan’s attack.
