EXPELLING DEMONS AND CONSECRATION
truly crucified with Christ will be a bold witness, because he doesn’t
care what others think of him. A dead person will be free in their
worship for the same reason. The reason many Christians are
powerless and don’t have the power to raise the dead is because
they haven’t died to receive resurrection power. This power will
raise both the spiritually dead and the physically dead. Now let’s
look at the spiritual power in water baptism.
1 Corinthians 10:2 says concerning the children of Israel “They
were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and the sea.” There was a
water baptism Israel went through when crossing the Red Sea.
They were baptized into Moses (a picture of Christ) by passing
through the Red Sea. The point I want to make in this is that the
same waters that baptized Israel also closed behind them to sepa­
rate them from Egypt which represents the world and our past sins.
Also, the waters killed their pursuing enemies. Even though you
make heaven by the blood of Jesus only, there is a power in water
baptism. John the Baptist was not doing something new. There
were large containers of water at the temple that people would dip
in for ceremonial cleansing. This is all through the Law of Moses.
Dick Rueben said the best time to pray for someone to receive the
baptism of the Holy Spirit is right out of the waters of baptism.
There seems to be an outward cleansing that prepares someone to
receive a new level of anointing. John Kilpatrick said he has found
that those that are water baptized are less likely to backslide. I just
want to bring home the point that water baptism is part of the deep
consecration. I always obey the Bible and water baptize all of my
congregation. I make sure those that are delivered are water bap­
tized. Now let’s talk about the blood.
The blood
The blood of Jesus is the most powerful substance in existence.
This blood was shed for the cleansing of the world. The blood is all
we need to make heaven. If our sins are washed away by the blood
of the lamb of God, we are saved. The blood in the Old Testament
was always applied with a plant known as hyssop. Hyssop always
represents faith. So we apply the blood of Jesus by faith. We can
do this by speaking it only, or placing our hands and applying the
blood, or by using the fruit of the vine. I have heard of people plac­
ing the fruit of the vine used in communion on the doorposts all
over their home. This is very powerful. Also, I have heard of people
burying communion bread and juice in land to consecrate it. This is
also very powerful. There is an applying of blood that will deeply
consecrate someone unto God. This can happen when an authority
figure prays this way over someone. I have placed my hands on
some people from their head, shoulders, hands, mind, feet, etc...
applying the blood for a deep consecration. Almost every time they
