Mark 3:13–35 — Demons Desire to Devour Us

Jesus told his disciples to cast out demons. Unclean spirits are real and desire to undo and thwart the healing work of God in our lives. As a priesthood of believers, we all can stand against the influence of demons, but, like all spiritual gifts, God has blessed some of his people with more gifting and discernment than others in this regard. As a community, we must spend time learning with Jesus and learning the work and character of the Holy Spirit, so we may more sharply recognize and renounce the work of oppressive, devouring demons.
