3. Teachings & Key Points
A. The Spirit of Infirmity
Scripture Foundation: Luke 13:11
Definition:
A spirit that burdens the physical body with chronic weakness, disease, degeneration, or recurring illness.
Common Manifestations Mentioned:
- Chronic colds / recurring illnesses
- Asthma and respiratory issues
- Viral attacks / weakened immune system
- Arthritis
- Degenerative conditions
- Paralysis / crippling pain
- Pneumonia
- Sinus problems
- Blood disorders
- Thyroid / hormone shutdown
- Emotional or spiritual depletion
- In extreme global cases: leprosy
Key Insights From Angela Greenig:
- Ministry workers are especially vulnerable if they neglect self-care
- Warfare often intensifies before moments of ministry impact
- Physical battles may accompany spiritual ones
- Scripture proclamation (“prophesying over yourself”) is vital
- Neglecting physical health can create spiritual vulnerability
- True victory requires resisting the enemy—not passively accepting attacks
Matt’s Commentary:
- Cultural evil has accelerated since COVID-19
- Increasing violence, public threats, and political hostility point to deep spiritual turmoil
- Christians must stay vigilant and grounded in the Word
- The church is often unprepared for deliverance needs
Prayer for Deliverance from the Spirit of Infirmity
(Provided in full in the episode)
A powerful, detailed prayer covering repentance, forgiveness, breaking oppression, commanding the spirit to leave, and declaring healing through Jesus’ blood.
B. The Spirit of Jealousy
Scripture Foundation: Numbers 5:14
Manifestations & Traits Listed:
- Jealousy and possessiveness
- Coveting
- Variance — divisiveness in churches & homes
- Anger, wrath, rage
- Hate
- Suspicion & mistrust
- Cruelty
- Competition rooted in insecurity
- Rage and uncontrolled emotional reactions
- Murder (physically or through hatred, resentment, or character assassination)
Biblical Examples:
- Cain & Abel (Genesis 4)
- Joseph & his brothers (Genesis 37)
- Proverbs 6 — the fury of jealousy
- Proverbs 10:12 — love covers a multitude of sins
Key Insights From Angela Greenig:
- Jealousy destroys marriages, friendships, ministries, and churches
- Often grows from insecurity, comparison, or unhealed wounds
- A single “seed” of lies or envy can grow into a destructive pattern
- Demonic jealousy works with accompanying spirits (lying, rage, murder)
- Words act as “water” that grow spiritual seeds—positive or negative
- Deliverance is needed when jealousy becomes chronic or destructive
Matt’s Commentary:
- Coveting is widespread in modern culture
- Church communities frequently fall into jealousy over gifts, callings, influence
- The body of Christ often lacks healthy deliverance ministry
- True identity in Christ prevents jealousy from taking root
Prayer for Deliverance from the Spirit of Jealousy
A healing prayer focusing on contentment, gratitude, identity, and emotional restoration.
