Back then in the Bible, Jesus was able to heal them. His disciples tried and some demons were too strong and Jesus said "those required prayers and fasting". His words stuck with me.. I'm still trying to make sense of it all. if anyone knows what Jesus meant and how we can apply it to modern times.. we should discuss it.
The word of Jesus is a Sword. Jesus rebuked evil. With Jesus anyone can do what He did and more. John 14:12 is a guarantee. Some of what Churches Preach today is weird to me because of this verse and some others. Maybe I am wrong. could be. The current Church we go to has said some things that go against my grain, but I try to comprehend and be quiet because I am not them nor am I a Leader. Like I do not think a Church should be affiliated with the Government and have rolls in both the Community and the Government Officials. I think that is twisted.
for your thing it is faith. Nothing is mightier than one who has Faith in Jesus. We are not Judged by works but by Faith we are inevitable to have works as a by product of the Faith.
I think there are different levels in this battle and at certain moments in Human History these battles require different types of Faith. Some of the propaganda in Church for my whole life has been that the USA Churches are more mightier than the World Churches, yet in these Cities next to these Churches that have Pastors who double dip in Politics and Everyday People they become ego driven and do not see that we need Missionaries within our Own Country for a long time.
So MAYBE we have disciples that have demons of their own and why would a demon listen to one who is possessed? Paul said he died daily for a reason. We are human, but for the very, very few who have the Faith will also have the guarantee of John 14:12. That would be amazing to see and I think in the USA we are pushing towards seeing the very, very few do amazing things. Yet the World will hide this from as many as possible. So much has been done already. :)
12“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If you [c]ask anything in My name, I will do it.
You stop a madman with a gun……by shooting him with it.
