Welcome Back! I am your host Dawn Simmons, and in this episode of Conquering Our Unseen Enemies we are going to be discussing part 2 of 2 episodes on the spirit of Anxiety. In part 1, we identified the various levels of anxiety, and discussed how the spirit of anxiety functions.  Now in part 2 we are going to talk about how to identify the root of anxiety and all the other demonic influences that have partnered with anxiety in your life.  From there we will put a plan in place to evict all of these influences.

As always, let’s discuss our Top Show points:

·      Part 2 of 2 episodes on the spirit of Anxiety.

·      Let’s start with a quick review of anxiety as we discussed last week:

o   Defintition of Anxiety: a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease, typically about an imminent event or something with an uncertain outcome.

o   There are 4 different levels of anxiety we are going to address:

§  Normal (Mild):

§  General anxiety disorder: 

§  Moderate:

§  Severe:

§  Panic:

·      We want to think about what triggers our anxiety because then we can start to understand what is at the root of our anxiety. 

·      To get to the root of our anxiety is not easy and may be painful, but it is the only way to rid ourselves of the root. 

·      We must be willing to be honest with ourselves and believe in Him for all that we need to evict the Spirit of Anxiety.

·      The easiest way to attack this influence is to create a plan that changes with you as you develop strength and understand the root of each demonic influence. 

·      The first thing we need to do is make a list of all the demonic influences that you are experiencing in addition to the spirit of anxiety. 

·      In a second column, put words that represent the opposite of each word in your list.

·      Build support with scriptures: Using the words on your list that are the opposite of the demonic influences, dig into your Bible and find scriptures that include those words or concepts. 

o   When you are feeling anxiety, you rebuke anxiety and speak the words that are opposite of anxiety over yourself quoting the scriptures over your life.

·      Our next step is to begin to know your triggers.  What sets your anxiety in motion?  We want to get ahead of what is coming at us. 

·      I want you to identify as far back as you can recall what occurred that created that demonic influence to begin its influence over you.  Was it one specific event?  Was it a series of events?  Was it something traumatic? 

·      That process could take some time and you want to do it at your own pace.  It is better to do it correctly than to do it quickly.

·      As you work through the list, ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you what you need to know and renounce any rights the demonic spirit has in your life and submit authority in your life in that area to the Lord. 

·      Now do that process with each of those demons on your list.

·      Remember to go back and ask the Lord if you missed anything. 

We encourage you:

·      To have an active Bible reading plan, if you want a personal relationship with the Lord, you need to be active about reading His word.
