Scripture: Isaiah 61:1-2
Summary: Jesus has given us power and authority over the Devil to destroy his works and to enjoy victory and liberty continually.
Introduction:
- Jesus was given the anointing of the Holy Spirit without measure, and He has the capacity to break every Satanic bondage, yoke, covenant and chain.
- This same anointing is working with us today to set the captives free and to enjoy the blessings of God to the fullest.
- God is the mighty deliverer. He is in the business of destroying the works of the Devil and breaking both spiritual and physical chains.
- In the Bible, which was written for our example and enlightenment, He broke the chains of several people.
- A notable example is the deliverance of Paul and Silas in the prison, alongside with every other person that was locked up and chained with them in the prison. Acts 16: 25 - 28.
- God can not only put a stop to the oppression of the Devil, but He can restore what the devil has killed, stolen, and destroyed. Acts 10:38, John 10:10.
- We shall be discussing the topic under three subheadings
1. The description of Satanic Chains.
2. The Drivers of Satanic Chains
3. The Deliverance from Satanic Chains
1. The Descriptions of Satanic Chains
- Physically, chains are metal ropes or cords that are used to bind a person or a thing. Judges 15:13-14.
- In the same way, chains exist in the spirit realms:
1. They are weapons of darkness, wickedness and destruction, used to bind people in darkness in Satanic kingdom. Isaiah 54:17.
2. They are weapons of the Devil, used to tie a person to his kingdom and to himself, so that the person can not fulfill the purpose of God in life.
3. They are instruments of oppression used to keep people in continuous afflictions and bondages.
- Satanic chains are used by the enemy to do a lot of evil including the following:
1. To detain a person against their will.
- When you are detained against your will, your expected progress and promotion in life cannot manifest.
- When you are tied down, you cannot be at the right place at the right time. Then, you will not be able to secure a job, a marriage partner, a helper of destiny, a good business or any good thing in life.
2. To keep a person stagnant
- They are used to limit you so you do not reach the height God has ordained you to.
- This makes people to
be putting great efforts in one area or the other in life, without achieving a commensurate results.
3. To keep people in afflictions
- There are several afflictions that comes through Satanic chains. They can be infirmities, disabilities or demonic oppressions.
4. To bind people in obscurity.
- The enemy can recognise people of great glory, and bind them with chains to prevent the manifestation of their glory.
5. They are used to enforce Satanic embargo in a person’s life.
- There are people that have Satanic embargo on their lives, chains are used to enforce such.
2: The Drivers of Satanic Chains
- There are certain factors that leads people to, and keep Satanic chains in place in their lives. Some of these include:
1. Curses
- A curse can be pronounced by people with the appropriate authority, or people with the powers of darkness, upon an unprotected person.
2. Unbroken Covenants
- People may be operating under a Satanic covenant which they entered into personally, or which someone entered into on their behalves.
- Either of these kinds may be entered into either consciously or unconsciously. Under a covenant, the life of a person is bound by the terms of the covenant, whether known or not.
3. Enchantments and divination
- People operate under chains due to consultations of sorcerers, psychics, false prophets, witch doctors, occult mediums, and other satanic intermediaries either by themselves, or on their behalves, or consultations by others against them.
4. Building on a Faulty Foundation
- You have to deal with the foundation of every phase and activities in your life.
- Every beginning that has something against the word of God, or has a link with the powers of darkness is a faulty foundation.
5. Evil Summons
- People are summoned to evil gatherings and evil judgements and pronouncements are made against them. Sicknesses and insanity may also be put on them.
- This happens by using some Satanic control on one's spirit either in real life or in a dream.
6. Satanic Attacks in Dreams
- A person may suffer an attack in his dream that can bring him under the chains of the Devil.

3. Anointing, Deliverance, Satanic
INTRODUCTION:
A. Deliverance – it is a grand theme of the Bible – consider this
1. The word deliver and its various forms is written 595 times in the KJV of the Bible
2. One whole book is devoted to deliverance – Exodus, the deliverance of God’s people out of Egyptian captivity
3. One of Jesus’ mission statements is found in Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,….
4. And as the apostle Paul considered the fight within, the fight between good and evil, he cried out O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? Romans 7:24
B. But deliverance is not just a biblical theme – it’s a life theme
1. People are crying out for deliverance
a. Deliverance from addictions: drugs, alcohol, gambling, pornography, cigarettes and more
b. They are crying out for deliverance from debt: secured and unsecured
c. Others cry out for deliverance from starvation, disease, lack of water
d. And still others cry out for deliverance from war and natural disaster.
2. Needless to say deliverance is a big topic today, as well as in biblical times
C. With this in mind, Habakkuk has a lot to offer us for it gives us a sure focus when it comes to deliverance – The Lord God almighty, the Ultimate Deliverer!
1. Deliverance is the theme of our passage and message for this morning.
2. The chapter begins with an introduction, giving us an idea of where we are going: Habakkuk 3:1-2 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth. O LORD, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O LORD, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.
Patient for the Harvest
Preach this refreshing sermon on Matthew 13:24-30 and show your people how God is supremely patient, wanting no one to perish but everyone to come to repentance.
Refreshing Sermon
a. God is going to judge Judah with a terrible judgment, and then He is going to judge Babylon, thereby delivering Judah from her grasp - Listen to the message: God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise. And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power. Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet. He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways are everlasting. I saw the tents of affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble. Was the LORD displeased against the rivers? was thine anger against the rivers? was thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation? Thy bow was made quite naked, according to the oaths of the tribes, even thy word. Selah. Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers. The mountains saw thee, and they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high. The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear. Thou didst march through the land in indignation, thou didst thresh the heathen in anger. Thou went forth for the salvation of thy people, even for salvation with thine anointed; thou wound the head out of the house of the wicked, by discovering the foundation unto the neck. Selah. Thou didst strike through with his staves the head of his villages: they came out as a whirlwind to scatter me: their rejoicing was as to devour the poor secretly. Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, through the heap of great waters. When I heard, my belly trembled; my lips quivered at the voice: rottenness entered into my bones, and I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble: when he cometh up unto the people, he will invade them with his troops. Hab 3:3-16
b. From this passage I want to draw three points for the Time of Deliverance and the Ultimate Deliverer.
c. The first two will come from the text directly – Deliverance as Seen In Habakkuk
d. The third stemming from the text – Our Deliverance
4. So lets pray and get started.
In the name that is above every other name I decree and declare Every chain in your life is broken by fire🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 in Jesus name Amen.
God bless you
