I don't mean to sound confrontational either.

It depends if there is a spirit. To know this is the gift of discernment, which cessationists may or may not believe in. What I do is (unless told otherwise by the Holy Spirit inside me) is try to learn communication techniques to avoid such circumstances, and pray for myself to answer in the right way.

If you use the spirit-based interpretation, when it is not needed, you may miss other worthwhile growth opportunities (I have known people who suffer from this). If you do not use it when needed, you might end up getting hurt in a fistfight.

One way to look at it, is if you are not sure, try either. God will in time teach you discernment and communication techniques as well.

I'm going to be blunt here, and not very polite.
Only an IDIOT wants to go to war.
That, in and of itself, proves beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you are not in any way qualified, mentally or spiritually, to challenge demons.

But aren't we ALREADY in war.

That's a bit harsh I reckon to make that assessment on someone's mental state etc...

For me binding is just asking God to restrain the enemy if there's been something happening, and loosing is just asking God to please send His Holy Angels to help in a situation. Its not all weird and wacky just asking God for help with things.
But unless you are encountering specific demonic stuff going on I really don't think you need to worry about it. God looks out for His kids just keep looking at Him and doing your best to obey and follow Jesus and leave the spiritual realm to God.
It's not a game.
God does call some people in the Body of Christ to specialise in deliverance and all that, and He has given us authority to cast out demons in Jesus Name, but mostly for just us regular folk in the church it will only be occasionally we may encounter specific spiritual stuff and then asking God for help and wisdom is all we need to do.. God understands our prayers and looks out for us. I don't understand all of how it works but I know God has it covered.

Are you?
Does the supreme conflict between God and Hell impact you in any real way? Be serious.
You, and I, are observers of the conflict, not directly involved. Nor are we qualified to be involved.
If you really want to join the fray, become a saint first, then the war will come to you.

Do you know the NAME of THE LORD?

Okay I am getting your point...

But I am still thankful for making this post, I did learn a bunch and looking into things I forgot, such as the 7 Spirits of the Lord

Andy.. any need we pray the word. For me.. if its fear.. I pray.. no.. God has not given me the spirit of fear but of power and love and a sound mind. Sad.. the JOY of the lord is my strength. Some see demons in everything. What is written?

This is the 1st thing that came to my mind as I read you post "See 1st the kingdom of God and HIS righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you". When it comes to demons and fallen angels.. you do NOT play with this. One has to be walking int he Spirit praying always and in the spirit and HE the sweet sweet Holy Spirit leads and guides us in to all truth. What did Jesus tellt he 12 when they came back 2 by 2? They said.. even the demons are subject unto us. Jesus said.. dont be so happy they are subject unto you but that your names are written in heaven.

To many see demons in everything. To many seek this because of POWER. A ..if one goes where HE did not send you..you can get stomped on. To man rush by what they SEE FEEL...flesh. We dont walk by the flesh but the spirit. He will show us what is at work. JESUS IS REAL! Peter and John gate beautiful said.. what I have give I unto you..in Jesus name rise..walk. They said after.. why do you look at us as if we did something. We have no power.. its faith in that name.. its JESUS. See they NEW..there were nothing.. its ALL Jesus...YET...they NEW their right.. the authority Jesus game all of us. Yet.. they did not let that ever go to their head.

The second we start talking and its ME ME ME I I I .. its no longer GOD but US that gets the glory.

So seek HIM 1st.. and if you have anger.. find something in the word about PEACE? My peace I give to you not as the world gives? Fear.. God has not given me the spirit of fear but power and love and a sound mind. Sad.. the JOY of the lord is my strength.

I give you this.. but you should have known already. JESUS IS REAL! He told you to ask the Father for the holy Spirit and He will give it. Like being saved. You read John 3:16...is it true? Well ask for the holy Spirit then thank Him for given it.. HE CANT LIE! You ask.. HE GIVES period. THINK.. you have the GOD that made ALL you see IN YOU! Just what ELSE do you want?

SEEK HIM 1st.. HE will then show you .. ask HIM ..pray to HIM. He said.. my sheep KNOW my voice ..the voice of a stranger they will not follow. He said my sheep KNOW.. not guess not wonder..but you will never have to guess.. you KNOW. He for me always backs it up with the word. SPEAK the WORD.. words of LIFE! What are the FRUITS of the spirit? 1st Cor 13.. Philp 4.... Faith comes by hearing and hearing by GODS word
