Beware of the Jezebel Spirit!

Rick Joyner wrote books about defeating witchcraft in the last days. Witchcraft is associated wiht the Jezebel spirit. Rev. 2:20 says that Jezebel calls herself a prophet and teaches people to commit sexual sin and eat food sacrificed to idols. The Jezebel spirit seeks control thru witchcraft and manipulation. It manifests as pornography and in music. Jezebel hates true prophets of God. She also hates prayer. Prayer will bind Jezebel.

Jezebel does not have a bright future. Her future is very grim. 2 Kings 9:30-37 says "when they went to bury Jezebel, they found nothing but her skull, her feet and her hands." Jezebel couldn't even be buried.

Water Baptism

I found an article about water baptism online and I wanted to share it! http://www.christian-faith.com/forjesus/baptism-in-water. False churches are baptizing people because they realize the importance of baptism. When you are water baptised, you identify with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. Mark 16:16 says, "He who believes and is baptized shall be saved."

Water baptism comes after conversion, meaning you have to repent of your sins and confess Jesus as your Savior! Make sure they baptize you in the name of the Lord according to Acts 10:48.

With Long Life He will Satisfy Me!

My enemies are still planning my premature death. God spared my life when they tried to kill me before I got saved so how much more will he protect me now that I am saved. They put evil spirits and disease on me as I slept, but they are just giving me more things to testify about. God healed me once, he can do it again. The devil must think that I need a revelation of who God is, but he should get a revelation that God always wins!

I declare that I am delivered now! I am healed now! I will live and not die to declare the works of the Lord. As Israel Houghton sings, With long life he will satisfy me!

Today is the Day of Salvation: Get Saved (Spiritually Reborn) and Live!

I had the opportunity to visit Trinity Church in Miami today. It was the last day of the play, "The Voice and the Judgement." This play talks about the importance of salvation and the reality of hell. In the play, "the voice" represents God's voice: the gentle whisper, the conviction to obey God and get saved before it's too late.

Getting saved means acccepting Jesus into your heart and life and changing your sinful ways.

The production chronicled the stories of people who were trying to decide whether or not they wanted to get saved before it was too late.

The first story was about Danny Santiago, a devoted father who works six days a week. His wife, Lisa and his daughter, Nicole are both Christians. They invite Danny to come to church, but he says that "being a good person is good enough." He goes on to say that the World Series was that weekend and he didn't want to miss it. He said that his wife and daughter are always in church so they have him covered. Nicole and Lisa went to pick Danny up from work. It was raining really hard and they had a car accident. They all died. The Voice told Lisa and Nicole that they have loved and served him well and they could enter into his Kingdom. Danny told the scribe that he was with Lisa and "all I know is that I'm a good person," but he went to hell. Men are called to be priests of their home, but they are not taking their rightly places. Righteousness comes from God, not from doing good works.

When Lisa and Nicole got to heaven, the scribe said that their names were written in the Book of Life. According to Revelation 21:27: "Nothing evil will be allowed to enter, nor anyone who practices shameful idolatry and dishonesty, but only those whose name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life."

We all have to give an account to God for our actions on judgement day.

The second character was Deacon Darnell Whitney. He was the picture of religious piety, but he was addicted to pornography. The voice asked him, "How long do you think you can hide what's going on?" He replied, "I'll always be a sinner, but God will always cover me." The voice told him that repentance is about changing your behavior. He left church to attend a Miami Dolphins game and ran a red light. He died. When he appeared before the judgement seat of God (Romans 14:10), God asked the scribe if Darnell's name was written in the Book of Life and he said no. God replied, "Only he who does the will of my Father will be allowed to enter." (See MAtthew 7:21)

The third story was about a Sergeant who took a bold step of faith and shared his faith with two other soldiers on the battlezone. He led them in the prayer of salvation and they were saved. God told him," If you had not shared your faith, your friends would have never known eternity."
Another character was Julia. She was single and recently divorced. She lost her husband to another woman. She got pregnant while living with her fiance and had an abortion. After the abortion, the guilt haunted her. God told her that his grace is sufficient for her. (See2 Corinthians 12:9). When she appeared at the judgement seat, Satan asked God for permission to enter and plead his case against Julia. Satan said, "She was a fornicator, a liar, a drug user, a murderer. She killed her own baby. She deserves to spend eternity in hell." Jesus replied, " "I paid her debt" and the scribe said that Julia's record was clear.

The stories continue in the same way, people don't want to change and get saved and they die. A lot of people think that if they get saved, they won't have a normal life. Some people think that they cannot change, but Philippians 2:13 says, "God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what please him."

When you appear at the judgement seat, you cannot tell God that you believed in him, but never went to church. You cannot say that you was about to get saved. On judgement day or at the time of your death, you're either saved or you're not. If you're not, God will say that he never knew you. (See Matthew 7:23, Luke 13:27)

Oprah once said that there are many ways to heaven, but Jesus is the only way to the Father. (See John 14:6)

Faith in God is worth more than gold (1 Peter 1:7). There is more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner than ninety-nine righteous people. (Luke 15:7)

The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life. (Romans 6:23)

All you have to do to get saved is confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord. Ask God to rescue you: Newsong, "Rescue" and once he does, you don't have to fear judgement day.

1) conversion
2) water baptism
3) baptism of the Holy Spirit
4) Times of Repentance
5) Mass Deliverance
6) Anointed Teaching and Preaching
7) Praise and Worship
8) Breaking Generational Curses

Anger

Waiting has taught me a lot about myself. I have learned that I am gentle, but I realize that I have an anger problem. I know what ticks me off: people not treating me like they would want to be treated, loud people, my passive father, my controlling and manipulative mom (who is an expert at provoking her children for no reason), the fact that I feel like I have no control in my parent's house. Also, I am covering my family to make sure nothing happens to them when my parents seem to just be so carefree about this witchcraft stuff.

So, my lack of self control has caused me to be very impulsive. I have interacted with a lot of rude people. I've had to just take some things in, but I don't feel like I should have to deal with that in my own home. If I tell my parents that I feel very uncomfortable with someone or something, they do nothing about it!

I have decided to learn how to deal with difficult people before this anger spirals out of control!

Why You Should Never Practice Witchcraft or Serve Other Gods

Rick Joyner wrote a book entitled, Overcoming Witchcraft in the Last Days. The devil is getting creative. He is setting up false churches because he knows that he can get a bigger following that way by both using and perverting the gospel. If you have been reading my blog, you should know that I have broken every demonic pact my ancestors have made with witchcraft. I have written a list of reason detailing why I would never serve withcraft and you should do the same:

1. They always have to do ceremonies to their gods. Jesus freed us from the law so we don't have to do any animal sacrifices or good works to obtain salvation. All we have to do is believe and repent of our sins to have a relationship with God.

2. They always have problems and they try to create problems for you. God promises to deliver us from all of our troubles and he always does! My evil aunt is working with others to do witchcraft so I can't get a job, but she can't get a job for herself. She's in a worse condition than I am.

3. God doesn't force or trick anyone into serving Him. God is a gentleman. He draws people to himself thru the gospel. The dark kingdom forces themselves on you. They secretly initiate you with a handshake, food or money. Incubus and succubus spirits come at night to have sex with you. They say satanic prayers so you can talk in your sleep. The devil is very sneaky and he does not fight fair!

4. Although you practice witchcraft, you are not immune to witchcraft. Witchdoctors change and invert their names so they can become immune from witchcraft whereas Christians are protected by the blood and name of Jesus. We don't have to do a name change.

5. Witchdoctors can alternate between black and white magic without offending their gods, but God hates evil and is not pleased with it.

6. Witchdoctors consult the dead to gain information and they desecrate the grave to carry out their evil deeds. But Jesus is living. He can speak to you thru a person, a dream, a song or a sermon and tell you what you need to know and do.

7. Demons are controlling. You have no control over how you will react. They possess you anytime and anywhere. That's why they want your mind. God helps us to renew our mind so we can live better lives.

8. They heal you, but your healing is not permanent. Sickness is a constant problem! But, when Jesus heals you, it's permanent.

9. If you do not fulfill your obligations to them by killing a goat, you suffer the consequences. You are faced with high blood pressure and other ailments. My father has high blood pressure because of this and my uncle had a stroke. More importantly, if you die before fulfilling your obligation, they can affect your children.

-When you are in God, you leave a good and lasting generation for your children, not curses and obligations to evil spirits!
