There is often a noticeable difference in the appearance and character of a person after he has been delivered of strong demonic oppression. A. One person to whom Jesus ministered spiritual deliverance had been oppressed by the same evil spirit continually, since his childhood. However, this is not always the case. It would come and go. It may be due to a lack of faith on the part of the person trying to minister it.
Some cases require that it be proceeded by a time of fasting and prayer.
If they continue in the evil practices of their past life, the demon may again seek entrance to its former place of abode. If the person is not filled with the Spirit after receiving his deliverance, the demon may return with seven more evil spirits, and the condition would then be worse than the first.
