We think of exorcism as something involving people rolling on the floor screaming obscenities, the Exorcist movie, or heads turning around. That's not the only kind of exorcism. John 2:15 says, Messiah drove them out of the Temple, but the word here is ekballo, which is the same word for exorcism. If you are a disciple, you have the power of ekballo, to exorcise, to take out evil. We don't have a passive faith, we have to be powerfully opposed to evil. We're to be casters out of evil in end-time civilization. You have the power, not just to complain about what's going on in the world, but to actually drive out evil in your surroundings, your own life. Evil spirits aren't the only thing that needs to be cast out. Sin needs to be cast out, anything in your life not of God has to be cast out. You have power not only to receive new things into your life, but to cast out old things out of your life. So cast out those things in your life because you have been given the power to exorcise them.
From Message #1052 - The Four Powers
Exercise the power of ekballo, cast away all things that are not pleasing to God, make no room for evil to enter in your life.
Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:19 | John 2:15
