In the last days the Bible talks about how it will get very tough to be a Christian as there will be great persecution.  We are now starting to experience some of that with the whole CV-19 pandemic.  The enemy is real and he is doing everything he can to cause fear, repress the   truth of evil from being exposed and specially trying to force Christians to submit to the enemy’s demonic agenda. 2 Timothy 3:1-9 New King James Version (NKJV) Perilous Times and Perilous Men 3 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; 9 but they will progress no further, for…

Most people think that witchcraft is done by witches who wear tall black pointy hats, with green tinted faces and a wart, who cackle when they laugh and boil things like bats and newts in black cauldrons and cast spells on people and astral project to listen in on people’s conversations.  Yes there are some witches who could fit that description but there are far more who are doing witchcraft every day who look normal and are in leadership of most churches around the world as well as have their own ministries.  And many of them are also men. Truth be told – at the simplest level - witchcraft is when one person tries to make another person do what they want which goes against what God wants for them (sometimes in very subtle ways while others are more overt).  It is not loving or true freedom to try to make a person do what you want them to do when it ultimately hurts them.  Controlling other people to do what you want is done by both men and women and is witchcraft. Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom (2 Corinthians 3:17). The reason people control…

When Jesus walked the earth those who wanted the love and anointing that He had became true disciples and followers of Him.  They let go of the demons that had legal rights to torment them from their past hurts by listening to what Jesus talked about and then forgiving those who hurt them and repenting for their pride and sin to become like Christ.  Those who hated Jesus had evil hearts and minds and refused to forgive people and kept their pride so were infected with the demons tormenting their thoughts.  Some of the Pharisees and scribes hated Jesus because they were filled with pride, arrogance and jealousy (demons) and wanted to turn other people in the church and region against Him. While most Christians want to get along with all people, unfortunately those who are listening to demons in their minds will manifest against the Jesus in us.  So we will never be able to truly “get along” with people who have hearts and minds that are evil.  If we do tolerate the evil in others (and that includes those in the church today who are like the Pharisees and scribes) then we are not doing what Jesus did…

Today’s world tells us that we need to be bold, loud and aggressive and to demand our own way to make people give us what we want.  That the weak will not survive and to get what you need you have to yell and throw tantrums to get people to fear you and bow down to your every request.  To manipulate others to give you everything you want.  To seduce them to getting them to give you what you desire.  I see it in the church where people try to put guilt trips on those who have mercy hearts in order to get them to serve or give money. A spiritually meek person is not selfish or concerned with getting their own ways, ideas and desires. They are willing to put themselves in second place or last place and submit themselves to do God’s will and help others achieve what is best for them.  They would rather help another person or group of people to succeed and lay their own life desires down for them.  They do not need any spotlight or attention from thousands on social media to tell them how great they are or how beautiful they look…

The importance of walking in the gifts that the Lord has blessed us with is critical in helping others who can benefit from being the recipient of our gifts.  Those who receive a timely word of knowledge from the Lord, a prophetic word to lead someone on course to their destiny in Christ, people who receive a physical healing and many who need emotionally healed and delivered from demons tormenting their thoughts.  Unfortunately there are many who are trying to operate in their giftings but still have a significant spiritual immaturity which causes them to operate from a very strong spirit of pride.  The enemy wants to puff us up to make it about us instead of others. Pride is the spirit of Leviathan. Job 41:33-34 NKJV 33 On earth there is nothing like him (Leviathan), Which is made without fear. 34 He beholds every high thing; He is king over all the children of pride.” Let's face it - we all have pride to some level.  It comes in when we are wounded from our past (and present) to speak to us so that we will not get hurt again.  It tells us not to trust people because they have only hurt us in…

Billions of people on earth just want to have a good relationship where they are loved and have their needs met but unfortunately many of them self-sabotage their own relationships and don’t even see it.  The enemy blinds them in seeing what they do that creates strife and friction between them and their loved ones and has them blame all the issues on their spouse or children or other friendships.  As long as you give them everything they want or obey their every command then they will get along with you – but as soon as you defy their demands then you will get an earful. So what are some of the ways we ruin our own relationships? Jealousy – unfortunately many people ruin their relationships because they have unhealed soul wounds from their past and do not know who they are in Christ and the enemy convinces them that if their spouse glances at another person from the opposite sex or has healthy interactions with someone from the opposite sex then they get triggered and will go off on their spouse verbally. They feel like they are going to lose their loved one because when they were growing up…

Ready or not – it’s time – evil is upon us and God’s people need to step it up and start confronting in boldness, truth and love – no matter how angry people might get and how much spiritual backlash we receive from the enemy.  Too many people for too long have simply given the reins over to ungodly people to control.  Those who threw the biggest fits in order to get their way usually had others give in to them in order to try to shorten their temper tantrums and keep the peace.  Unfortunately God's people allowed the enemy to take over our government, schools, churches, Hollywood, health care and most every other organization over the recent years.  So to reverse all the evil that has been going on for way too long it will require God’s people to stand up to people operating with evil demons to reverse many years of perverseness and corrupt tolerance of living. The spirit of Jezebel causes people who have been hurt in their pasts growing up to desire to control, manipulate and dominate other gentler people, especially in the church.  They have a lot of pride and know if they just raise…

Truth be told – if everyone was truly honest – they would tell you that they just really want to be loved by someone without condition.  The challenge in life is finding someone who is able to do just that.  So many people have been hurt by their father or mother (or step parent or have had sexual violations) and have not had their past soul wounds healed and demons delivered from tormenting their thoughts so will trigger on their loved ones constantly as they are not able to love unconditionally.  Usually the more gentle-spirited people end up drawing to those who struggle more with behaving controlling, manipulative and being more harsh and prideful (called the spirit of Jezebel).  So they get used and abused in their relationships and never know what it is like to have peace with someone who actually loves and cares for them. Then those who have more of the effects of the spirit of Jezebel (Narcissist) will blame their own bad behavior (which ruins their own relationships) on their victims and hurt them even deeper and many of their victims never recover.  Their victims loved them as much as anyone could but it is never…

So many people in the world have been hurt when growing up and then later in life.  We can be hurt many different ways, from one or both of our parents or step-parents, siblings, relatives, friends, people who have rejected you in relationships, teachers, ministry people, your fellow workers, sexual violations, etc. What happens when someone hurts us (emotionally, physically or sexually)?  If you were younger when it occurred (perhaps your parents divorced, one parent was more verbally abusive to you or worse, a neighbor, etc.) you are not able to cope and understand so what usually happens is your soul (mind, will & emotions) has a piece that becomes an alternate personality which holds the toxic emotion or pain so your core person can continue to function. Then whenever something triggers that wound in you then your alternate personality comes up in your and you behave in an erratic way (anger, fear, rejection, jealousy, etc.)  You are hearing demonic voices at that time which causes you to manifest in a different personality. So as we get hurt a lot when growing up we often manifest with negative personalities throughout our lifetime and have relationships that never have peace or…

Since March of 2020 the world has dramatically changed and those who would claim to be Christians are being tested like never before.  The level of persecution is increasing from typical casual conversations that we have had with friends or family to social media comments on our posts.  The enemy knows his time is getting shorter and Christ is coming back for His pure and spotless bride.  Going forward through the rest of 2020 is going to get even tougher for those who stand up for Christ then it is right now as we will be tested, persecuted and hated like never before. There is a distinct difference between those who claim to be followers of Christ and those who are actually living every day producing the fruit of the Spirit in their lives and having boldness in their walks.  The Lord looks upon our hearts and minds and knows if we have any good fruit or not.  Those who have truly forgiven all who have hurt them and walk in humility, holiness and righteousness are the true bride of Christ.  They have the fruit of the Spirit evident in their lives every day.  Galatians 5:16-26 talks about people who…
