When Two Paths Converge — A Key Revelation for Spiritual Breakthrough
Why does spiritual warfare sometimes feel stuck?
We pray desperately. We cast out demons with all our might.
But why does the enemy still cling so tightly to certain areas of our lives—completely unmoved?
Recently, while wrestling with long-standing spiritual blockages, I sensed the Lord calling me into the secret place, to engage deeply in spiritual warfare through Heavenly Court intercession.
It felt like the moment before labor—intense, life-and-death pressing in.
And right at that critical juncture, God sent help.
Through His servant, Pastor Jenny Li —a seasoned Chinese practitioner of Heavenly Court operations—I received practical wisdom.
Alongside this, the teachings from the Fig Tree School brought deeper understanding of the Heavenly Court’s multiple dimensions, especially regarding land defilement and generational bloodline sins.
Even more amazingly, the Holy Spirit also led me to revisit Pastor Derek Prince’s teachings on deliverance (as taught by Light of Glory Ministries), opening my eyes further to the power and process of casting out demons.
Then came the key revelation:
The “legal verdict” of the Heavenly Court and the “execution of authority” through deliverance are two essential, parallel tracks.
These two realms echo each other in the spirit—and together, they form a complete strategy for victory.
This integrated insight shifted everything.
Spiritual warfare isn’t just about battling on earth.
It’s about securing legal victory in the heavens—then enforcing that verdict on the earth with authority.

How the Heavenly Court Operates: From Revoking Accusations to Releasing New Decrees
The Heavenly Court is not a place of emotional shouting—it is a realm of truth, law, and evidence.
Any demonic spirit operating in our lives does so only because it holds legal rights—perhaps through unrepented sin, generational curses, lies we’ve agreed with, or unlawful covenants we’ve made with the powers of darkness.
Entering the Heavenly Court is about aligning with truth, revoking the enemy’s legal grounds, and securing a righteous verdict.
Here’s a standard step-by-step framework for engaging the Court:
- Step 1|Open the Court in Jesus’ Name
Declare that the Heavenly Court is now in session.
Honor Jesus as your Advocate, High Priest, and the One who never loses a case. - Step 2|Present Your Case & Repent
Under the illumination of the Holy Spirit, present your case with honesty.
Confess personal and generational sins, and cancel any ungodly covenants made with darkness.
Repentance is the key to dismantling the enemy’s legal claims. - Step 3|Forgive & Break Soul Ties
Choose to forgive those who have hurt you.
Forgiveness breaks soul ties and tears down strongholds the enemy builds through bitterness and offense. - Step 4|Request a Verdict & New Decrees
By the power of Jesus’ blood, ask the Righteous Judge to issue heavenly orders—
such as Restraining Orders, Cease and Desist Orders, and Release Decrees. - Step 5|Receive and Declare the Verdict (OIT)
By faith, declare that the verdict has been granted:
“Order In Terms” — everything you petitioned has been approved.
That area of your life is now under heaven’s jurisdiction and Kingdom authority. - Step 6|Seal the Verdict & Fortify with Truth
Seal the judgment by declaring God’s Word over your life.
Build a wall of truth to guard against the enemy’s return and retaliation.

Exposing the Enemy’s Strategies and Legal Loopholes
As I walked through the process in the Heavenly Court, I began to clearly see how the enemy operates.
Demons never work alone. They come in organized legions, exploiting the legal loopholes in our lives—our open doors.
1. Demonic Warfare: A Coordinated Attack
Demons work in teams, with clear assignments:
- Some act like “assault troops,” triggering fear, panic, and anxiety.
- Others function as “occupation forces,” establishing strongholds of shame, bitterness, and even death.
What stood out most in this experience was the role of familiar spirits.
These spirits act like intelligence officers—they study your memories, wounds, and family history.
They don’t attack directly, but they feed the rest of the demonic network with precise information on when and where to strike.
2. The Four Legal Grounds Demons Use:
- Trauma
– Emotional, sexual, accidental, or grief-related wounds that left a spiritual breach. - Sin
– Unrepented personal or generational sins that form legal rights for demonic access. - False Belief Systems
– Thought patterns aligned with lies, such as:
“I’m not worthy,” “I always get abandoned,” or “God doesn’t care about me.” - Unlawful Spiritual Agreements
– Blood covenants, occult rituals, personal vows made in ignorance or fear.
3. Common Entry Points for Demonic Invasion:
- Thought life and inner dialogue
- Dreams and the imagination
- Past memories (especially trauma)
- Physical body (sickness or chronic pain)
- Unclean sexual encounters or masturbation
4. Common Timing for Demonic Attacks:
- In the womb (prenatal stage)
- Childhood trauma or abuse
- Accidents or sudden shock
- Prolonged emotional stress
- Spiritually empty places in the heart not yet filled by Jesus ( Matthew 12:43–45)

Verdict and Enforcement Must Work Together
This experience deeply convinced me:
True and lasting deliverance requires both tracks to run together.
1. The Heavenly Court — Revoking the Enemy’s Legal Rights
This is like the judicial system of Heaven.
Here, we align with truth, confess our sins, and apply the blood of Jesus to cancel the enemy’s legal grounds.
If we skip this “legal verdict” process, then spiritual warfare on earth easily turns into powerless shouting—with no real authority in the spirit realm. The enemy can simply ignore it.
2. Deliverance — Enforcing the Heavenly Verdict
This is like Heaven’s law enforcement on earth.
Once the verdict is issued in the Heavenly Court, we have legal authority to act.
At that point, the commands we give during deliverance are not negotiations—they are eviction orders backed by Heaven’s justice.
We’re not wrestling with demons anymore—we’re enforcing a sentence already declared.
If we neglect this step, then even the most powerful court verdict stays in the heavenly realm, without being manifested in our lives—and true freedom never arrives.
Verdict is Final. Deliverance is Execution.
The Heavenly Court revokes the accusation.
Deliverance carries out the expulsion.
These are the two wings of spiritual warfare.
Only when both are active do we step into real and lasting victory.

Testimony : “Spirit of Distraction” Was Exposed and Expelled in the Heavenly Court
During one of my Heavenly Court prayer sessions, things suddenly hit a wall.
I had just confessed a portion of sin when the flow of prayer stopped.
My mind filled with noise and wandering thoughts, and a strong urge to give up crept in.
It felt familiar—something I’ve always chalked up as just being “easily distracted.”
But in that very moment, the Holy Spirit shined a piercing light and whispered:
“This isn’t just a habit. It’s a spirit.”
I was instantly awakened in my spirit.
I stood up and declared boldly:
“In the name of Jesus, I command the spirit of distraction to leave me now!”
Immediately, I felt something heavy being pulled out of me.
Clarity returned. My spirit was free again.
That’s when I realized: this “distraction” wasn’t me.
It was a familiar spirit, cleverly mimicking my voice and patterns—so I would believe it was just “my personality.”
But in truth, it was a stealthy intruder, feeding off information overload and emotional confusion.
The moment I confronted it with legal authority from the Court of Heaven, it had no choice but to flee.
Later, over the next few days, I faced another deeper attack.
This same familiar spirit disguised itself as the spirit of a deceased family member, drawing close to me through past trauma.
It stirred up overwhelming guilt and self-condemnation, dragging me into a heavy sorrow.
Thankfully, Pastor Jenny discerned it for what it was—an attack from a spirit of grief.
With that insight, I returned to the Heavenly Court, exposed the alliance between these two spirits,
and cut off all emotional soul ties and unlawful agreements they had been using.
That’s when the weight finally lifted—and freedom came rushing in again.

Conclusion: From Emotional Battles to Battles of Authority
After going through this journey, I realized something sobering:
In many parts of Chinese culture, spiritual interference has been normalized and justified for generations.
But through this courtroom-and-deliverance experience, God opened my eyes.
The enemy’s attacks aren’t random—they are layered, like a spiritual mille-feuille:
- Personal sin
- Generational curses
- Soul wounds
- False belief systems
Each layer becomes legal ground for accusation, embedded deep within the foundation of our lives.
One of the most deceptive players in this war is the familiar spirit.
Its greatest trick?
It mimics your thought patterns and copies your inner voice,
making you believe that those accusations, distractions, and hopeless feelings are your own.
But they’re not.
This spirit is a spiritual impersonator—a thief of identity.
And without the light of God’s truth, it’s almost impossible to detect.
True deliverance doesn’t come from emotional outbursts.
Demons don’t leave because you “feel broken enough.”
They leave because their legal rights have been revoked—and Heaven has issued a removal order.
Stop fighting with your emotions.
Start fighting with truth and authority.
You are not alone.
The Heavenly Court has already been set up on your behalf.
And your defense attorney—Jesus Christ—has never lost a case.
So walk into the courtroom.
Pick up your verdict.
And then stand your ground and enforce the freedom God has already given you.
