Episode notes

In this powerful message, Pastor Smale exposes the ancient demonic spirits that have returned to infiltrate modern society. Drawing from 1 Peter 5:8, he reveals how Baal, Ashtoreth, and Molech have been repackaged for a new generation—stealing hearts, destroying families, and targeting the next generation.You’ll learn: • Why most Americans believe in Satan more than God • How Satan uses his “minions” to attack culture • The disturbing spiritual roots behind abortion and gender ideology • Why spiritual problems can only be solved by spiritual power • How to walk in authority and victory through Jesus ChristThis is not just a cultural critique—it’s a call to spiritual warfare. The devil is real, but so is your authority in Christ.📖 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” – 1 Peter 5:800:00 – Opening & Introduction: “The Greatest Trick”01:35 – Satanism Today: What They Actually Believe02:53 – Americans Believe in Satan More Than God?04:52 – The Daimonia: Sermon Title & Context05:00 – Part 1: He’s Real – And So Is His Kingdom09:59 – Satan’s Minions: The Demonic Realm Explained11:59 – Part 2: Where Did the Ancient Gods Go?13:21 – The False Gods of Baal, Ashtoreth, and Molech15:50 – What Happens in the Month of June?17:35 – Our House Was Left Empty: America’s Decline20:07 – Spiritual Problems Require Spiritual Solutions21:54 – Part 3: How to Defeat the Daimonia23:20 – Giraffes and Lions: You Already Have the Power24:56 – The Spirits Are Subject to You in Jesus’ Name26:46 – Every False God Bows to Jesus28:49 – Final Call: It’s All Real – Are You Born Again?30:11 – You Need a Relationship, Not a Magic Word32:10 – Altar Call: Get Right with God TodayShow Notes• Did you benefit from this message?
