“The Fruit” I
“The woman was convinced. She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it, too” Gen.3:6.
Sometimes I get upset that Adam and Eve just sold us short because of one fruit. But I realized that it was deeper than that, satan was not selling the fruit to Eve, he was selling the world. And it is because satan knew that as soon as she eats the fruit, there will be something of his that will be deposited in her as a mole. So she cannot say like Jesus would say, the prince of this world comes and has nothing in me because there would have been something in her. Read the rest of this entry
The World
“…don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God” James 4:4 [emphasis added].
What is the world? The Word of God says for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life [Jn.3:16]. For God so loved the world… and God is saying to us love not the world, if you love the world you become an enemy of God. So what is God saying? When you see the word world in the Bible it means the system of the world and the people in the world. God so loved the people in the world that He died for them but He is saying to you and I do not love the system of the world. Read the rest of this entry
Real Victory
“I don’t have much more time to talk to you, because the ruler of this world approaches. He has no power over me” John 14:30
To neutralize the enemy you must make sure that there is nothing in you that the enemy feeds on and thrives on. One of our greatest challenges as a nation, why we have not been able to deal with terrorism is because among the military they have moles. In the government we have moles. Until the moles are brutally dealt with we may not be able to go anywhere. Jesus says, Read the rest of this entry
Take A Stand
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death” Rev.12:11 [KJV]
The story is told about the Chinese underground church. In China back in the day, I don’t know if it still happens now the government authorizes its soldiers to kill anyone that is worshipping Jesus. So soldiers go to churches and just kill everybody. So this band of soldiers came into a church and announced that they have locked all the doors and are going to kill all the Read the rest of this entry
God Alone!
“You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God” James 4:4.
What guarantees victory over satan is the Word, the Blood of Jesus, and not fearing death. Do you know why islamic militancy appears to be gaining a lot of grounds and terrorizing everybody so far on earth? Firstly, it is because the enemy copies the truth and perverses it. And secondly, it is because they are not afraid to die. The moment you have a leader that is not Read the rest of this entry
Guaranteed Victory
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death” Rev.12:11 [KJV]
“Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there” Gal.5:24. Do not toy with the desires of the flesh. Recognize the desires of their flesh and put it on the Cross of Calvary. Like someone beautifully puts it, “the Cross simply is the place where your will crosses with the will of the Holy Spirit”.

Know The Enemy II
“And I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel.” Gen.3:15
God is a Godhead [God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit] and I have inherited His enemies. To fully understand the enemy and how it works you need to know the enemy of the Father, the enemy of the Son, and the enemy of the Holy Spirit. What is the enemy of the Son? The enemy of the Son is satan. The direct enemy of Jesus is satan. We see that stated Read the rest of this entry
Know The Enemy I
“The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other… Gal.5:17
Permit me to reiterate our last thoughts from yesterday. God is a Godhead [God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit] and I have inherited His enemies. To fully understand the enemy and how it works you need to know the enemy of the Father, the enemy of the Son, and the enemy of the Holy Spirit. Read the rest of this entry
The Godhead
“All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him” Luke 10:22 [KJV]
The Godhead is a Trinity – God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. To understand God, you must understand and relate with each member of the Trinity. You must understand that even though He is one God, He is three persons [three personalities]. As a believer you must know how to relate with the Father, you must know how to relate with the Read the rest of this entry
Spiritual Warfare
“And I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel.” Gen.3:15 [emphasis added].
I am praying that the enemy will be totally neutralized in your life in the Name of Jesus. And everything he can deploy will not work concerning you in Jesus Name. I want to encourage you to read the whole of Genesis 3 because therein began the issue of spiritual warfare. “Then the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this …I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel” Gen.3:14-15. Read the rest of this entry
