This is something I wrote 10 years ago. It may have some terminology in it that is strange to you. I hope it makes sense. In it are some keys to casting out devils. How to. Why they flee. What actually takes place when you command them to leave... etc. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The Effects of Belief Spoken Words
on Time, Space, and Reality
There is a model of spirit make-up that says that spirits are words incarnate. They are the sum total of their logosystem. Jesus is said to be the living Word, the Logos. He is the spiritual manifestation of the Logosystem of God. He is the Word. When we are born again, we begin to be made after the image of Him. Gradually, as more of the word is added to your logosystem, you become more like him. You are a subset of the total that is Jesus.
Following this logic, and adding the Mark 11:23 process of belief being manifested into physical reality by speaking the contents of the logosystem, we can see the process of the creation of the worlds and the ages. We can see that all that is or will ever be is simply the contents of the logosystem of Jesus being spoken into existence by Him.
Evil therefore is the attempt by the devil to create lies and manifest them into existence by the same process. If you consider that the devil and his demons are also spirits, then you will understand that they also have logosystems. The logosystem of the devil is lies incarnate. It is darkness, death, and destruction. The logosystem of the unregenerate is a subset of the devils logosystem.
Actions of spirits are regulated by the
contents of their logosystems.
I happened upon a truth in the early 80s that I have found a certain amount of substantiation for. A demonic spirit, like a spirit of God, cannot act contrary to the contents of it's logosystem. It will always behave and react in accordance to what it believes to be true. It is belief regulated. Unlike living humans, a demonic spirit has no soul and therefore has no logic, reason, emotion, or will. When placed in a given situation, it will always instantly react to stimuli in accordance with the contents of it's logosystem or belief. People who see demons say that they can and occasionally do pass right through walls and barriers. But most of the time they will actually use doors, windows, and other openings that exist in the material world. They will sit in chairs, walk up stairs, and behave exactly as if they had physical bodies. I believe this is because even though they can pass through any physical object, they are "belief regulated" to obey physical laws. The contents of their logosystem is such that they have to operate in accordance with what they believe. If they believe they have to go through doors, they have to. Since they have no soul with which to reason past this, they must always act in accordance with their logosystem. This is especially true of the smaller demons who have limited logosystems. There is a theory that many earth bound demons are the spirits of pre-adamics or pre-flood beings that were perverted by satan and darkness. If this is true, then it could be that when they died they carried their "physical reality" logosystems into the spirit realm with them, and so act in accordance with them even though they are now spirits.
In our present day dealings with demons and evil spirits it is important to understand how this works. When you understand that demons always MUST act in accordance with their logosystem, then you can begin to see how we can cast them out in the name of Jesus!
Two elements that exist in the logosystem of every demon spirit:
(1.) Jesus created everything that exists in both the spiritual and physical worlds.
Col 1
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven,
and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be
thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things
were created by him, and for him:
(2.) Jesus decended into hell and defeated the devil and all the principalities and powers of the devil:
Col 2
15: And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made
a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
These facts have been imprinted in the logosystems of every demon, and they have to act in accordance with them!
Read the following very carefully, for in it lies a faith reality which when entered into your logosystem will make you a demon casting terror to the devil:
When you (that is the spirit of Christ in you) evoke the name of Jesus, and commune that reality into any demonic spirit, it will react in fear, terror, and paralysis. Because it does not have a soul it cannot reason who you are. It sees Jesus and it sees the horrific defeat it suffered in hell on the day Jesus was raised from the dead. When the spirit of Christ in you communes (that means it shares information) with a demon, that demon sees Jesus. It cannot reason Jesus is in heaven with the Father or that the spoiling in hell actually occurred 2000 years ago. When you commune Jesus into that spirit, all it can see is utter fear and terror. When God spoke the words "you are Lord and Christ", that truth entered the logosystem of every demonic spirit in all creation. When the name of Jesus is evoked, every demon must instantly act in accordance with that truth.
That certain truth is inserted into the logosystem of the demon is evident from the scriptures:
Matt 8
29: And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do
with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to
torment us before the time?
Mark 1
23: And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean
spirit; and he cried out,
24: Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou
Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee
who thou art, the Holy One of God.
Mark 5
7: And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with
thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by
God, that thou torment me not.
Acts 19
15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and
Paul I know; but who are ye?
James 2
19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well:
the devils also believe, and tremble.
These demonic spirits instantly reacted to the presence of the Christ spirit and the spiritually communed spoken word. In each case the reaction is blind mindless fear. Demons are helpless to resist fear. It holds such power over them that they will be rendered totally helpless when the name of Jesus is communed to them. '..the devils also believe, and tremble..". That the word says "the devils believe" is fascinating. It is precisely because they believe that we hold such power over them in the name of Jesus. The name of Jesus simply lays them low. They must react in accordance with this belief that has been communed into them by God.
James 4
7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil,
and he will flee from you.
The word "flee" carries with it the idea of fleeing as a fugitive (Gk "pheugo" Latin "fugio"). The being is always captive to your words (because of Who it is that lives in you and Who it is that is actually speaking the words). Some even read the word to mean "escape". It is not a matter of your chasing him away, rather he must escape from your presence as quickly as possible! Quite a difference! It changes from you being attacked by a demonic spirit to your getting the upper hand and the spirit finding that it is all he can do to escape from your presence (that is the presence of the spirit of Christ in you!).
