Angels
‘Regarding the angels, he says, He sends his angels like the winds, his servants like flames of fire’ Heb.1:8.
There was an old man that lived in the Mediterranean among the Semites. One morning his protégée got up from the bed and went to perhaps fetch water to prepare the house for the day. And the protégée discovered that their house was surrounded with warriors. So he ran to his master and he said ‘Master, there is trouble! What shall we do, they have come for you and we are surrounded’. And his master got up from the bed still robbing his eyes from sleep and said to the young man ‘don’t be afraid for they that are with us are Read the rest of this entry
Be Aware VIII
‘My husband is not at home; he has gone on a long journey… With persuasive words she led him astray; she seduced him with her smooth talk’ Prov.7:19 &21
The third thing you must know is that we don’t flirt with darkness. ‘Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord…’ Deut.18:10-12 [NIV]. Some believers flirt with the devil by practicing divination, sorcery, and interpreting omens. The enemy will suggest that it is harmless to 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 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
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
Battlefield
‘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].
Over the past few days we have mentioned two major battlefields – the spirit realm and the mind. For many believers these days when you talk about a spiritual battlefield the only place their thoughts go is the mind. Of course the battlefield of the mind exists and it is legitimate and real [2 Cor.10:3-5]. There are battles that go on in our minds that we have to deal with. Some people are struggling with all sorts of negative thoughts. That will come to an end in your own case in Jesus Name. The enemy tries to form Read the rest of this entry
Spiritual Principles III
‘…as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you’ Num.14:28 [KJV].
The fourth spiritual principle that we must know in order to successfully operate in the supernatural is the trigger principle. It simply states that words are triggers in the supernatural. If you are an anointed child of God filled with the Holy Ghost yet you don’t speak then nothing happens. It is like having a loaded gun and not pulling the trigger so nothing happens. Your tongue and the words that you speak are the triggers. ‘By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God’s command, that what we now Read the rest of this entry
Spiritual Principles II
‘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.2:10-11.
Hierarchy exists especially in the spiritual. ‘And without doubt the lesser is blessed by the greater’ Heb.7:7 [NIV]. A colleague and I had a meeting with one of the kings in Nigeria. At the end of the meeting I interrupted the king to ask why he ignored my colleague throughout and focused on me alone. His response was ‘what do you take me for? You mean I will see authority and not know it? You are disappointing me. You pastors are higher than us kings’. He says they were taught about spiritual hierarchy from Read the rest of this entry
