Be Aware VI
‘The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons’ 1 Tim.4:1 [NIV].
Thirdly, demons scheme to lure us away from God. You go for a powerful prayer meeting but you find that all you can do is sleep. Perhaps there is a demon on your case. Apart from those things, demons try to confuse our doctrine and even our understanding of God thereby luring us away from God [1 Tim.4:1 NIV]. ‘Some will abandon the faith’ – what is the faith? The simplicity of the faith; Jesus says ‘I am the Way, I am the truth, I am the life’ by putting my faith in Jesus and accepting His forgiveness I have salvation – Read the rest of this entry
Be Aware V
‘But for twenty-one days the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia blocked my way. Then Michael, one of the archangels, came to help me, and I left him there with the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia’ Dan.10:13
You need to know what satan and his demons try to do. Firstly, demons influence the leaders of nations because they know that if they can negatively influence the leadership of a nation, they will affect many more people. ‘For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places’ Eph.6:12 [KJV]. This is why as the church we have to influence leaders of nations because influencing the leaders Read the rest of this entry
Be Aware IV
‘Look, I have given you authority over all the power of the enemy, and you can walk among snakes and scorpions and crush them. Nothing will injure you’ Luke 10:19.
Fifthly, you must know that you as a child of God you have power over satan and his demons. You must know that you have power as a child of God; which is why the qualification is a child of God. If you are not a child of God well I pray that you become one today because this life is too dangerous. We have all sorts of terrible things happening, you need God on your side. ‘Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and Read the rest of this entry
Be Aware III
‘Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ’ 2 Cor.10:5[KJV]
The fourth thing we need to know about satan and his demons is that the devil thrives in darkness. The devil loves darkness and confusion. It is this same darkness and confusion he orchestrates in marriages because the devil hates for husband and wife to be at peace. The devil will plant conflicting thoughts in the mind of both the husband and wife. Thoughts that if not cast down and out will stair up confusion. There was a case of a man who walked into the house to see his wife and her Read the rest of this entry
Be Aware II
‘…He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies’ John 8:44.
The second thing you need to know is that satan and his demons hate you. I know they hate me. Do you know why they hate you? It is because you are a human being and you are made in the image of God. You don’t have to do anything to upset them just because you are a creation of God made in His image, they hate you. In fact John 10:10 says they have only one objective to steal, to kill, and to destroy – there is nothing else. It is a three-fold mandate – to steal, to kill, and to destroy. So don’t Read the rest of this entry
Be Aware I
‘Then Jesus demanded, “What is your name?” And he replied, “My name is Legion, because there are many of us inside this man.” Mark 5:9
My earthly father before he passed on he would say to me that God is like a market and there are many routes into a market. Markets in the old days usually do not have a single entrance so people can come in from anywhere and go out from anywhere. However, towards the end of his life he realized the emptiness, void, and vanity of a life without the True and Living God. T.D Jakes while preaching said that he was at the deathbed of his father, and his father said to him that it is so ironic that it is now at the end of his Read the rest of this entry

‘Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved’ Acts 4:12.
All you see is not all there is; there is more to life than meets the eye. One truth that stands out in the supernatural is the supremacy of Jesus. Buddha at his death said he is still searching for the truth. Mohammed said he is a prophet pointing to the truth, but Jesus say ‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; nobody comes to the Father but by me’. Jesus was not guessing. Unlike Krishna, Jesus did not say if you chant this and that then perhaps you would come to the knowledge of the truth. Jesus said I am the Truth. In the Read the rest of this entry
Fully Obedient
‘And after you have become fully obedient, we will punish everyone who remains disobedient’ 2 Cor.10:6.
Confidence comes with complete obedience. ‘And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete’ 2 Cor.10:6 [NIV]. You have the confidence to avenge every act of disobedience only when your own obedience is complete. Which explains why a lot of Christians are living a defeated life because it is only when your obedience is complete that you are able to fight disobedience. There was a case of a man who was on fire for God and all of a sudden he came under some serious affliction Read the rest of this entry
Know This II
‘Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm’ Eph.6:13
The next thing you need to know that will help you is that your prayers are more powerful than you ever know. The truth is that if we Christians know how powerful our prayers are then we will pray every time and like Jesus says without ceasing. Yet the reality is that we are completely unaware. We pray but we nurse doubts and uncertainty in our hearts about the answers to the prayers. God says ‘Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward’ Heb.10:35 [KJV]. God invites us to come Read the rest of this entry
Know This I
‘Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth’ Phil.2:9-10.
You need to know a couple of things that will be of immense value to you when it comes to warfare. First and foremost is the supremacy of Jesus. Jesus is the head of all principalities and powers. ‘Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father’ Phil.2:9-11. The three sections Read the rest of this entry
