Do demons have greater power in some geographical areas than in others?
While demon power is universal and I found in all parts of the world, it definitely is stronger in areas where there is little or no resistance to the devil. Where there is no prayer or Bible reading, demon power reaches terrible proportions and results in strange manifestations.
For example, I have felt more of an evil, oppressive spirit in the country of Tibet than almost anywhere else I have traveled in the world. This is because there is virtually no resistance or opposition to satanic power there. Rather, many people have given themselves over to the devil, and many others actually worship demons. Tibet reminds me of Revelation 2:13: I know ... where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is.
The devil is trying to increase his strength and take over America by taking prayer and Bible reading out of our schools and homes. Even many Christian homes today are giving the devil an open door by failing to have regular family devotions and Bible reading. The devil has no power to hurt people where prayer is being offered and where the blood of Jesus is accepted as protection and covering. We can have complete control over the devil's activities against us through total dedication, total consecration, and total application of the blood of Jesus.
15. What is the spirit of infirmity? How does it affect a person? How can you tell whether a person has a spirit of infirmity or a physical defect? Is it demon possession?
A spirit of infirmity is one of the devil's spirits. There are many types of these spirits, all of which cause sickness. The suffering caused by a spirit by infirmity is not a real physical illness and cannot be detected or treated by a physician.
The sickness caused by a spirit of infirmity may move all over the body. It may manifest itself as a backache, then a sick headache, or perhaps an upset stomach, or pain in the chest. No treatment is successful against it. No pills or shots bring relief from it. No doctor can determine what is wrong with the patient suffering from this malady. In fact, literally millions of people are being sent to psychiatrists by their doctors because the cause of their illness and suffering cannot be found.
Of course, the reason medical treatment is unsuccessful is because the source of the problem is spiritual. A person being attacked by a spirit of infirmity needs to be set free by the delivering power of Jesus. God wants to set people free from the infirmities of the devil.
I would say that a person with a spirit of infirmity who did not seek deliverance, but surrendered himself to the evil thing in his body, would certainly be moving toward complete domination by Satan. Instead, the sufferer should find a man of God to exercise divine authority and dominion over the devil's power, binding and rebuking the spirit of infirmity.
