How to deal with ppl with oppression

You should be full of the Word of God

Do not rush into battle naked. be clothed with WoG ie Jesus (armour of God)
lack of Righteousness and the Word leads to bondage. ppl who like the Word are full
of sin. Thy Word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against Thee.

bound because of sin. sin is present; Word is absent.

2 Tim 2:25-26: acknowledging the Truth of God's Word gives freedom from bondage.
You cant face the devil without knowing the power of God that is in you.

1. SLOWLY:approach the bound soul in meekness, not harshness or condemnation; hand

of love and mercy which says Jesus will set you free. instruct them the WoG.
Dont rush it; bring them out with patience; if u rush it, u destroy hte man. deep
in bondage. it took a long time to get in; it may take just as long to get out. be
wise.
