Why Am I Still Sick? What To Do When A Spirit Of Infirmity Prevents You From Healing

You're not sure what's going on with your body. 

Usually, when you get run down or catch a cold, you get some extra rest and you bounce right back. But you're not getting better no matter what you do. You've gone to the doctor and no one can find anything wrong. 

You're not crazy. The enemy launched an attack at you. You're dealing with a demon. 

You're up against a spirit of infirmity.

What is a Spirit of Infirmity?

This spirit attacks through sickness that appears right before a big event. You find yourself distracted by physical symptoms or taken out completely. This isn't always a cold.

This spirit also manifests through a past injury or chronic illness. It flares up when your work, ministry, or family needs you the most. Its function is to make you weak - to get you off your game.

This is the spirit of infirmity at work.

Scripture says, "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." Eph 6:12

The spirit of infirmity is the lowest level of demon - a principality. When you pray for someone with this spirit, you might see it in the spirit as an insect or something that looks like a worm. 

How to Get Rid of a Spirit of Infirmity 

As with any demon, you bind it! You have authority in Christ as a believer to bind and to loose. Restrict its power and kick it out. 

If you are the person experiencing the attack, bind it. Address the enemy directly.

“I bind you spirit of infirmity. I take authority over you and kick you out. You are unwanted here. I reject you and command you to leave in the name of Jesus!” 

If you pray with someone who struggles with sickness, have them engage their faith first and bind it. Then you can stand in agreement with them. Bind the spirit and kick it out as well. 

Speak Blessing and Call the Body Back in Line

Remember, God’s original design for your body is health. 

A spirit of infirmity may have weakened the body to the point where it has trouble healing. Remove the demonic force preventing your body from healing. But also speak strength to the body to come back to its healthy state. 

Pray and speak forth the proper response to every body part. If someone has trouble breathing, you can pray:

“Airways, you be opened in Jesus’ name. I call the liquid inside those lungs to dissipate. I speak peace to every inflamed tissue and call you to back in line with God’s design.” 

Don’t hesitate to speak blessing over your (or the person’s) body. Release God’s healing anointing to cover the sick person. You or a loved one may not be healed instantly after you pray. Keep praying!

Once you kick out the spirit of infirmity, your condition should begin to improve immediately. 

Don't tolerate sickness and the work of the enemy in your life! God wants you to walk in perfect health. Now that you’re aware of this spirit’s tricks, be vigilant to kick it out. You never have to suffer unnecessarily again. Use this tool to help everyone enjoy the blessing of health God has for them.
