Demons and the believer

I remember when, back in the 90s, we had an evangelist come through and at the end of his message, he instructed us to face the various directions (N, S, E, W), point and "bind" the enemy in that direction.

Fun times.

Lol I was waiting for him to say Matthew 16:19. Because that is not what that means

He left gaps. What if the enemy was hiding in the NE? LOL

It can become silly. What was he trying to do, "bind" the enemy throughout the world? lol

Here's something that came to mind as I was just typing...

Zechariah 2:5
For I, saith the Lord, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.

Why bind the enemy in each direction? Why not pray that God Almighty be a "wall of fire" around the local assembly during that season of warfare??? That would protect from all directions, would it not?

And, when I read that he involved the directions of North, South, East, and West... something didn't sit well with me.

A few years ago we also had an evangelist come through, we were instructed to nail handkerchiefs to wooden stakes pray over them, anoint them with oil, and drive them into the ground at the four corners of our city. He said do it on the right side of the road coming in the city so spirits could go out but not come in (assuming they would be travelling on the highway I guess)

Hmmm... (But not in a good way.) Was he a singing prophet?
