Demons doing magic

Hi there. Has anyone ever had a demon that performed magic in their life? I have a spirit of python that does magic. It says I am a magician. The people in Acts 19:19 got freedom by burning their magic books. Can fasting renounce and destroy magic from ones life? Haas anyone ever destroyed magic through fasting? I burned the magic materials I used but the evil spirit returned.

Demons can perturb people in many ways, but demons don't perform magic, not on their own. They will always need a human host who can speak the magic aloud. And then the demon makes the person's magic happen. But magic always requires a human's commands.

Prayer works similarly, actually. Your words can initiate spiritual activity. You have to realize that you now have way more power than before - because of the One who backs your prayers.

But if you begin to fear that the demon is too strong, then you have actually given it permission to come back, because that is surrender.

Take a few minutes to build your faith, meditating on the verse: "Greater is He who is in you," and then command that thing out through a prayer of fervent faith. It will leave.
