THE BLESSINGS OF DELIVERANCE FOR YOU
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate.
Verily, Shaitan is the enemy to you; so treat him as an enemy. He only invites his adherents, that they may become companions of the Blazing Fire. Quran, Surat-u Fatir (35):6
…And (We wish) to appoint him (Isa Al-Masih) as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us. It is a matter (so) decreed. Surat-u Maryam (19):21
Behold! Allah said: “O Isa! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme. I will make those who follow thee superior to those who reject faith, to the Day of Resurrection.” Surat-u Ali-Imran (3):55
No doubt you have heard or read of the miracles that Al-Masih Isa performed while on earth. The knowledge of the healing power of Isa should stir hope within you! Perhaps like millions of other people in the world, you have been searching far and wide for some spiritual presence to rid your life of evil mischief and satisfy the longing of your heart. And now you too want to experience this wonderful power of healing and deliverance!
If this is so, then do not hesitate to respond to the urging within you. Determine in your heart to experience for yourself this reality of power that comes through Al-Masih Isa. Ask Allah to guide you into all truth and then proceed to take some definite action. Apply the following suggestions to your own life:
BELIEVE THAT THE BLESSING IS STILL FOR TODAY
You may be thinking to yourself, “What good are all the accounts of divine healing to me now? They happened 2000 years ago and Isa has long since left the earth.” Yes, it is true that Isa Al-Masih has ascended into the Presence of the Almighty. But remember the words He spoke, “I am with you always, to the very end of the age” (Injil, Matthew 28:20).
These were the words of assurance that Isa Al-Masih spoke to His followers. The disciples were to preach the good news of Allah’s Kingdom throughout all the earth and until the end of the world. And since that time until this very day, the followers of Isa have continued in their world-wide mission. Today the Kingdom of Allah and its power is still being preached, and miracles over diseases and demons are still being performed—all in the name of Isa Al-Masih!
Why is this so? The answer is clear; Allah has never withdrawn the glory of Power and Authority from Isa Ruhullah Kalimatullah Al-Masih ibnu Maryam. He was glorified not only here on earth 2000 years ago, but continues to be glorified even now and forever at the Right Hand of Allah’s Throne. For it is He, Al Masih, the Anointed One, whom Allah has appointed to rule as His representative, as Khalifa, over the world community of believers for all eternity!
“God exalted Him (Isa) to His own Right Hand as Prince (Khalifa) and Savior” (Injil Acts 5:31).
“Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Isa every knee should bow, …and every tongue confess that Isa Al-Masih is Lord (Khalifa), to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:9-11).
BEWARE OF THE WHISPERS OF SHAITAN
Do not be misled by the whispers of Shaitan. He tells you that Allah Ta’alla the Most High God is far too distinguished to be bothered by your earthly concerns. He says that Allah lives in some remote part of the universe that is so far above human existence that your little prayers could never reach Him. Shaitan tells you the only time Allah will give you a hearing is on the terrible Day of Judgment, and that until such time you are left entirely alone to manage for yourself! My friend, these are all lies coming from the mouth of him who is the “father of all liars.” Be assured, Allah who is Ar-Rahman Ar-Rahim is concerned about the human race. All human beings are the embodiment of Ashraf-ul Makhluqat, the “best of creation.” And surely the best of Allah’s creation does not go unnoticed. Allah lovingly cares for each and every individual. Yes, He watches over you; He cares for you; and He knows everything about you!
“O LORD, You have searched me and You know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; You perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; You are familiar with all my ways” (Zabur 139:1-3).
My friend, Allah Ar-Rahman Ar-Rahim desires to be your constant Guide and Companion. He desires to heal you and strengthen you with a Spirit from Himself (Ruhun min-hu). He desires to fill your life with unspeakable joy and everlasting peace. Most of all, He desires to reside in the very depths of your heart as Sovereign LORD of your life! That’s how intimate He desires to be. That’s how concerned He is for you and for every other human being! So beware of the whispers of Shaitan. Instead, open your heart to the voice of Allah. Listen to the voice of the Holy Scriptures and allow them to uplift you with encouragement and hope!
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore, we will not fear….” (Zabur 46:1-2).
“I will say to the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust” (Zabur 91:2).
“Surely He (God) will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence…. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday” (Zabur 91:3,5,6).
Notice how Allah responds to the one who seeks refuge in Him: “Because he loves Me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges My name. He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him My salvation” (Zabur 91:14-16).
AVOID THE SNARES OF THE SPIRIT WORLD
Unfortunately, many people have believed the lies of Shaitan. They have succumbed to the false notion that man’s fate is one of eternal separation from his Creator, and that this separation is characterized by a wide and impassable gulf. Furthermore, this gulf of separation is inhabited by a variety of spirit beings whose primary task is to control the forces of nature. Shaitan has cleverly convinced such people that man is simply too insignificant for Allah to ever desire to fill this gap with His own presence and divine interaction. Many have been led to believe that such an experience of spiritual union with Allah was exclusively for the prophets, and that such an experience is unthinkable for anyone today. But again, these are only lies. The lives of the great prophets were to serve as examples of what Allah desires to accomplish in the lives of all His people, which is to fill their empty hearts with the Spirit of His Presence (Ruh-un min-hu) and the Blessing of His Peace.
People who are spiritually sensitive become keenly aware of this spiritual void in their lives. Their human spirits hunger for spiritual experience and fulfillment. However, Shaitan has concealed from them the truth that this inner craving, al-fitra, is a God-created hunger for the very presence of Allah Himself! As a result of this craving for spiritual experience, many people are enticed into the activities of the spirit world. They fall prey to the snares of witchcraft, sorcery, black magic, “secret arts,” and other forms. Then the spiritual vacuum in their lives becomes invaded and inhabited by evil influences and evil spirits. Such spirits are not supportive of Allah’s Kingdom. Rather, they are its enemies. They are the cohorts of the great enemy Shaitan!
HEED THE WARNING OF ALLAH
Evil spirits are very real. They take on a variety of forms and influence man in a variety of ways. Through the use of natural and spiritual forces, these spirits engage in continual warfare, attempting to subvert the heart of man.
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Injil, Ephesians 6:12).
As we have already seen, Shaitan often attacks through the affliction of diseases and demons. In many cases, the suffering of such attacks is so unbearable that the victim sees no alternative but to seek refuge at the hands of spiritists or spirit practitioners that include witches, witch doctors, sorcerers and fortune tellers. Sad to say, Shaitan has blinded the victim to the only secure refuge—refuge in Allah!
Yes, it is true that spiritists and similar practitioners who are knowledgeable in such things as “secret arts,” witchcraft and black magic have access to power that can control or at least appease the mischievous spirits. Their methods may range from secret potions and magic formulas to chants and other devices of sorcery. And yes, they may even have the power to cure diseases. But remember this: they are incapable of ever completely freeing an individual from demonic activity. Once a person becomes involved in the treatment of witchcraft and sorcery, that person becomes a lifelong victim of evil manipulation and fear. The evil spirits will avenge any “tricks” played on them by the practitioner, and will lash out with their fury on the innocent victim!
To depend upon the devices of witchcraft and sorcery is not the only alternative to man’s immediate needs. In fact, it is an alternative that can only lead to added misery and suffering. But most important, it is an alternative that is in direct violation to Allah’s Law. Allah strongly forbids and condemns such practices. Instead, He demands His subjects to completely trust and rely upon Him and His Mercy alone! To bow to any other power is to commit the terrible sin of shirk. Besides, only Allah can offer a refuge that is completely secure and eternal. For these reasons, the Holy Scriptures give clear warning against all forms of witchcraft and sorcery. May the reader give careful heed!
“Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD” (Taurat, Deuteronomy 18:10-12).
CHOOSE THE BEST ALTERNATIVE
My friend, you many contend that you have no other choice but to consult the practitioners of the spirit world because of the urgency of your need. You say that you believe in the existence of Allah as the Supreme Being of the Universe. You believe in the future event of the Judgment and the reality of Hell. You are acquainted with the beautiful story of Creation and the bliss of some future Paradise. But such knowledge, you claim, does very little to solve the real problems of day-to-day life!
You say you need some immediate help—a power that can help you right now on this present level of existence to cope with the mischief of Shaitan. You say you need access to some supernatural power that can relieve a child of fever, bless the womb of a barren wife, heal a loved one from incurable disease, protect from the “evil eye,” ward off the curse of a witch doctor, expel a demon from the life of a relative and cleanse a home of evil spirits. All this may be true except for one thing: you do have an alternative!
MIRACLES ARE STILL PERFORMED TODAY
By now you know that there is another way! That alternative, as we have witnessed from the Holy Scriptures, is the secure refuge in Allah and in the Power of His Might! And access to that Power is through the name of Isa Al-Masih! Why settle for less when you can have so much more? The spirit-practitioners are limited in their effectiveness. They may be able to control or appease the demons for a while, but they certainly are not in full control. On the other hand, Isa Al-Masih can both cast out the demon and permanently deliver you from any further demonic activity!
Remember, He came not to control or appease the spirits; rather He came to destroy the works of Shaitan! That means complete deliverance! Do not ever forget this important truth: Isa Ruhullah Kalimatullah came to reveal to humankind the very nature of Allah’s supreme power. And Allah is indeed greater—Allahu-Akbar! He who is Al-Qadir is in full control and is supremely sovereign over nature, spirits, angels, man and all else! Listen to this description of Him who is Rabb-il A’alamin:
“Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is Yours. Yours, O LORD, is the Kingdom; You are exalted as head over all things. In Your Hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all” (I Chronicles 29:11-12).
This is the greatness, the power, the glory, the majesty and the splendor that Isa Al-Masih came to reveal to all humankind!
ACCEPT THE BLESSING OF DELIVERANCE
As you think about this power over diseases and demons, you may still doubt its availability to you. You may think that such power invoked through the name of Isa Al-Masih is only for those who call themselves “Christians.” My friend, hear me well. This is only another lie of Shaitan. Isa Ruhullah Kalimatullah Al-Masih ibnu Maryam is a sign to all mankind, not just to some select community. No one can claim exclusive rights to this wonderful blessing. For he is a sign of Allah’s blessing to all people of all religious backgrounds. Through Isa Al-Masih, Allah promised to bless the whole world. For this reason, the followers of Isa Al-Masih have been commissioned to go out into all the world to preach the Kingdom of Allah and its power to all nations and to all people. That includes you!
Why should you and your family be deprived of this blessing? Do not allow prejudice of any community or religious tradition to keep you from seeking refuge in Allah through the name of Isa Al-Masih. Isa Al-Masih desires to intercede on your behalf. Let Him fill the spiritual void in your heart. He desires to respond to your need and bless your life, all for the glory and praise of Allah Ta’alla! Be forewarned, however, that Shaitan will try to rob you of this blessing. He will do everything possible to blind you from the complete truth of Isa Al-Masih, just as he has blinded the eyes of countless others.
“The ‘god of this age’ (Shaitan) has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the injil (good news) of the glory of Al-Masih, who is the image of God. For God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ made His Light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of (enlighten us to) the glory of God in the face of Al-Masih” (Injil, 2 Corinthians 4:4,6).
BELIEVE IN THE NAME OF ISA AL-MASIH
In closing, let the Lord of Dawn now shine upon your life. Let Allah flood your heart with the Light of His Living Word. Already, through the inspiration of the Holy Scriptures, you have come to a deeper understanding of the glory of Al-Masih. And you have come to a greater awareness of the power that is released in His name. Let this name now touch your own life and bring you complete deliverance from all evil influences. Attempt to find the true and faithful followers of Al-Masih and request their prayers. For Isa continues to bless His true followers with spiritual gifts that include both the gifts of healings and miracles. These gifts are for you!
Above all else, do not let the name of Isa Al-Masih simply become a mere magic word that is used only to perform “tricks” for public display. Instead, let it be the name that continually reveals to you, in the most ultimate sense, the Mercy and Compassion of Allah. Let this be the name that invites you into a blessed relationship with the Lord of your heart—a relationship of lasting adoration and devotion that will cause you to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
Finally, let this be the name that will always give you the wonderful assurance of complete salvation and deliverance whenever you utter the words, “I SEEK REFUGE IN ALLAH!”
