SUBTITLE: RESISTING THE ENEMY
LETTER #4.....
THIS IS THE CHURCH AT THYATIRA
LOCATED ABOUT 40 MILES SOUTHEAST OF PERGAMUM
THYATIRA WAS THE SMALLEST CITY OF THE 7 CITIES
BUT.... THEY GOT THE LONGEST LETTER
THEY HAD A LOT OF GOOD THINGS GOING ON HOWEVER...
THIS IS SOMEWHAT OF A FAMOUS LETTER
BECAUSE THIS IS THE LETTER THAT ADDRESSES....
THE JEZEBEL SPIRIT
I WANT TO PREACH TODAY ON RESISTING THE ENEMY
ARE YOU READY???
.......OPEN IN PRAYER.....
IT’S BEEN INTERESTING TO ME HOW IN EACH LETTER ....
JESUS ADDRESSES HIMSELF IN A SPECIFIC WAY....
A WAY THAT WOULD BE VERY UNDERSTOOD TO THAT CULTURE
HE IS HELPING THEM TO UNDERSTAND WHO HE IS AND THE AUTHORITY HE HAS
FOR EXAMPLE....
SMYRNA BOASTED THAT THEY WERE A CITY THAT WAS DEAD AND CAME BACK TO LIFE
AND JESUS SAYS....
NO, I WAS REALLY DEAD AND REALLY CAME BACK TO LIFE
PERGAMUM BOASTED THAT THEY CARRIED THE SWORD OF AUTHORITY
IUS GLADII....THE RIGHT OF THE SWORD
JESUS SAYS....
YEAH BUT MY SWORD IS BIGGER THAN YOUR SWORD
I AM THE ONE WHO HAS THE FINAL AUTHORITY
SO WHAT IS IT THAT THYATIRA BOASTED ABOUT?
THEY BOASTED ABOUT A COUPLE DIFFERENT THINGS
ONE WAS.....
THEY HAD THE MOST TRADE GUILDS
A TRADE GUILD WOULD BE...
LEATHER WORKERS
POTTERS
BRASS WORKERS
TODAY.....WE MIGHT SAY ELECTRICIANS
PIPE FITTERS
STEEL WORKERS
GUILDS WERE SIMILAR TO UNIONS NOWADAYS
THEY WERE GROUPS OF WORKERS SKILLED IN A SPECIFIC TRADE OR CRAFT
ONE OF THE THINGS THEY DID WAS....
THESE GROUPS WOULD COME TOGETHER AND CELEBRATE A FALSE DEITY
THEY’RE WOULD BE LOTS OF SEXUAL IMMORALITY THAT WOULD TAKE PLACE AT THESE CELEBRATIONS
ANOTHER THING THEY BOASTED ABOUT WAS THIS...
THEY HAD A STATUE OF APOLLO
APOLLO WAS THE SON OF ZEUS
THEY BOASTED THAT THEY WERE THE CITY OF THE SON OF GOD
LETS LOOK HOW JESUS ADDRESS THEM...
Revelation 2:18 (NKJV)
18 “And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write,
‘These things says the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass:
Revelation 2:19–20 (NKJV)
19 “I know your works, love, service, faith, and your patience; and as for your works, the last are more than the first. 20 Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess,
YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO BE AWARE OF THOSE WHO CALL THEMSELVES SOMETHING
IF SOMEONE COMES AND SAYS THAT THEY ARE A PROPHET
AND THEY TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT IS NOT TRUE
THEN THEY ARE A FALSE PROPHET
IF THEY SAY “THE LORD TOLD ME” SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN AND THAT “SOMETHING” DOESN’T HAPPEN
THE BIBLE CALLS THEM A FALSE PROPHET
Revelation 2:20–21 (NKJV)
to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. 21 And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent.
Revelation 2:22–24 (NKJV)
22 Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds. 23 I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.
24 “Now to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say, I will put on you no other burden.
IN OTHER WORDS...
THIS IS THE ONE THING I WANT YOU TO DEAL WITH
STOP ALLOWING THIS TO HAPPEN
THAT WORD “ALLOW”
ALSO MEANS “TO TOLERATE”
25 But hold fast what you have till I come. 26 And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations—
27 ‘He shall rule them with a rod of iron;
They shall be dashed to pieces like the potter’s vessels’—
as I also have received from My Father; 28 and I will give him the morning star.
29 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’
HERE IS WHAT HE IS SAYING....
I KNOW YOUR WORKS
YOUR DOING GREAT
IN FACT, YOUR EVEN DOING BETTER IN THIS AREA THAN YOU USED TO
BUT......
THERE IS SOMETHING THAT YOU HAVE GOT TO STOP DOING...
YOU HAVE GOT TO STOP ALLOWING TEACHING IN THE CHURCH
THAT IS PULLING PEOPLE AWAY FROM ME
AND WHAT MY WORD SAYS
HE SAID YOUR ALLOWING IT AND YOU HAVE TO STOP ALLOWING IT
WHAT I FEEL LIKE THE LORD WANTS US TO GET HERE IS THIS..
YOU HAVE GOT TO START RESISTING THE ENEMY
OH COME ON SOMEBODY...
DO YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE IN A WAR???
DID YOU KNOW THAT IF YOU DON’T SHOW UP FOR IT
YOU WILL LOSE
7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
SO....IF THE ENEMY IS NOT FLEEING FROM ME
I’M EITHER NOT SUBMITTING
OR NOT RESISTING
IT’S PRETTY CLEAR HERE IN THIS SCRIPTURE....
SUBMIT TO GOD
RESIST THE ENEMY
AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU
SO IF HE IS NOT FLEEING...
THEN ONE OF THESE THINGS AREN’T BEING DONE
SO THERE ARE SOME QUESTIONS THIS MORNING THAT NEED TO BE ANSWERED...
CAN CHRISTIANS BE INFLUENCED BY DEMONIC SPIRITS?
NOW THIS HAS BEEN ARGUED IN THE CHURCH FOR CENTURIES
HONESTLY IT’S KIND OF SHOCKING THAT WE DON’T KNOW THIS ANSWER
BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT SATAN ATTACKS CHRISTIANS
HE’S NOT ATTACKING NON-CHRISTIANS
BECAUSE THEY ARE ALREADY ON HIS SIDE
HE’S ATTACKING US BECAUSE WE SWITCHED SIDES ON HIM
THINK ABOUT THIS....
I’VE HEARD PEOPLE SAY...
IF’ I’M BEING ATTACKED THEN IT MUST MEAN I’M DOING SOMETHING WRONG
JESUS GOT ATTACKED AND HE NEVER DID ANYTHING WRONG
SO....ACTUALLY, IF YOUR GETTING ATTACKED
YOU MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT
OH COME ON SOMEBODY....
CAN A CHRISTIAN BE INFLUENCED BY A DEMONIC SPIRIT?
LET’S LOOK AT IT THIS WAY....
LET’S TAKE A CHRISTIAN AND NON-CHRISTIAN
BOTH DRINK A LOT OF ALCOHOL AT ONE TIME
WOULDN’T BE FOOLISH TO SAY....
THAT THE ALCOHOL IS NOT GOING TO INFLUENCE THE CHRISTIAN?
PRETTY FOOLISH RIGHT??
DOESN’T MATTER WHO DRINKS
IF YOU DRINK ENOUGH ALCOHOL
YOU ARE UNDER THE INFLUENCE
THAT’S WHY THEY CALL IT…DUI
WHAT IF A CHRISTIAN AND NON-CHRISTIAN START LOOKING AT PORNOGRAPHY
YOU ARE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF A DEMONIC SPIRIT
EVEN IF YOUR A CHRISTIAN
WHEN SOMEONE IS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF SOMETHING
YOU MAY END UP DOING SOMETHING THAT IS TOTALLY OUT OF CHARACTER FOR YOU
JESUS ASKED ALL OF HIS DISCIPLES
WHO DO MEN SAY THAT I AM?
PETER SAYS...
“YOUR THE CHRIST, THE SON OF TH LIVING GOD
A FEW VERSUS LATER HE IS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF SATAN
JESUS SAYS TO HIM IN MATTHEW 16.
Matthew 16:23 (NKJV)
23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan!
SATAN IS NOT OMNIPRESENT
HE IS NOT EVERYWHERE
SO HE HAS DEMONS WHO DO HIS WORK
WERE TALKING ABOUT BEING CHRISTIANS BEING INFLUENCED BY DEMONS
BUT PASTOR CHRIS. I JUST DON’T BELIEVE CHRISTIANS CAN BE INFLUENCED BY DEMONS
THOSE CHRISTIANS JUST NEED DISCIPLESHIP
THEY DON’T NEED DELIVERANCE OF DEMONIC SPIRITS
SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT AND SOME PEOPLE SAY...
WE JUST NEED TO CAST DEMONS OUT OF PEOPLE
ITS NOT A PROBLEM OF DISCIPLESHIP....IT’S DELIVERANCE
SO....DO WE NEED DISCIPLESHIP OR DELIVERANCE???
THE ANSWER IS....YES
JACK HAYFORD SAID THIS AND I LOVE THIS....
YOU CAN NOT CAST OUT THE FLESH
AND YOU CAN NOT DISCIPLE A DEMON
IN OTHER WORDS...
YOU HAVE TO CAST OUT THE DEMONS AND DISCIPLE THE FLESH
CAN I GET AN AMEN???
2. WHAT ARE SOME SIGNS THAT I’M BEING ATTACKED?
THE CHRISTIANS AT THYATIRA WERE BEING ATTACKED
MANY SAY BY AN ACTUAL WOMAN NAMED JEZEBEL
BUT MANY THEOLOGIANS BELIEVE THAT JESUS WAS REFERENCING THE SPIRIT
HERE IS ONE OF THE REASONS...
IT WOULD BE VERY UNLIKELY THAT FOR A JEWISH WOMAN TO NAME HER DAUGHTER JEZEBEL..LOL
BUT IT IS POSSIBLE SHE WAS A GENTILE CONVERT
JEZEBEL WAS THE DAUGHTER OF ETHBEL
WHO WAS THE KING OF TYRE AND SIDON
AND THEN JEZEBEL MARRIED AHAB WHO WAS THE KING OF ISRAEL
YOU CAN READ THE STORY OF AHAB AND JEZEBEL IN 1 KINGS 16-19.
BUT MY FOCUS THIS MORNING IS RESISTING THE ENEMY
WHETHER ITS A JEZEBEL SPIRIT
AN UNFORGIVING SPIRIT
A LUSTFUL SPIRIT
A PRIDEFUL SPIRIT
WHATEVER IT IS…WE WANT TO RESIST THE ENEMY
THERE ARE TWO JEZEBELS MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE
ONE IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
ONE IN THE OLD
THE OLD TESTAMENT IS THE ONE IN 1 KINGS
ELIJAH GATHERS 850 FALSE PROPHETS
JEZEBEL HAD 450 PROPHETS OF BAAL
AND 400 OF ASHERA
AND HE GATHERS THEM TOGETHER IN 1 KINGS 18.
HE CALLS FIRE DOWN FROM HEAVEN
AFTER THE FALSE PROPHETS HAD TRIED AND COULD NOT CALL DOWN FIRE FROM THEIR GOD
ELIJAH CALLS FIRE DOWN FROM THE ALMIGHTY GOD
AND THEN KILLS ALL 850 OF THEM
I WANT TO TAKE A FEW VERSUS AND SHOW YOU WHAT HAPPENS WHEN HE GETS CHASED BY THE JEZEBEL SPIRIT
IT’S A SPIRIT BEHIND THE PERSON
THEN I’M GONNA TAKE A FEW VERSUS FROM REVELATION 2.
AND WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO KNOW IF YOUR BEING ATTACKED BY A DEMONIC SPIRIT
FEAR
IF YOUR DEALING WITH A LOT OF FEAR
YOUR BEING ATTACKED BY A DEMON
I’M NOT SAYING YOUR POSSESSED BY A DEMON
I’M SAYING YOUR BEING ATTACKED
AND YOU NEED TO SUBMIT TO GOD AND RESIST THE ENEMY
SO ELIJAH CALLS FIRE DOWN FROM HEAVEN
1 Kings 19:1–3 (NKJV)
1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, also how he had executed all the prophets with the sword. 2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.” 3 And when he saw that, he arose and ran for his life
THIS IS THE GUY WHO JUST CALLED FIRE DOWN FROM HEAVEN
WHY DIDN’T HE JUST WALK UP TO HER AND SAY....
“HEY, LADY YOU WANT TO TALK TO ME”
COME ON OUT AND LETS TALK
BECAUSE I GOT A HAIR DRYER FOR YOU…LOL
ALL I’M SAYING IS...
IF A MAN OF GOD LIKE ELIJAH CAN BE AFRAID...
DON’T PUT YOURSELF DOWN BECAUSE YOUR STRUGGLING WITH SOME FEAR
SUBMIT AND RESIST
2. DEPRESSION
IF YOUR DEPRESSED THERE IS AN ENEMY TRYING TO ATTACK YOU
1 Kings 19:4 (NKJV)
4 But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree. And he prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!”
WHEN YOU HAVE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS
YOU ARE UNDER ATTACK
MANY CHRISTIANS HAVE HAD SUICIDAL THOUGHTS
THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE A BAD PERSON
ELIJAH HAD SUICIDAL THOUGHTS
MOSES PRAYED TO DIE
THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE BIBLE THAT PRAYED TO DIE
IT JUST SHOWS THAT YOUR A HUMAN
SATAN IS ATTACKING YOU
3. FATIGUE
NOT JUST TIREDNESS
FATIGUE
WE READ VERSE 1-3 THEN VERSES 4
NOW HERE IS VERSE 5
5 Then as he lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched him, and said to him, “Arise and eat.” 6 Then he looked, and there by his head was a cake baked on coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank, and lay down again.
SO…WHEN YOUR UNDER ATTACK
YOU NEED TO TAKE NAPS AND EAT CAKE
THAT’S WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS
BY THE WAY
THIS IS THE FIRST REFERENCE TO ANGEL FOOD CAKE…LOL
I’M JUST LETTING YOU KNOW…IF YOU GET TIRED
TAKE A NAP AND EAT SOME CAKE
AND THEN TAKE ANOTHER NAP
4. SICKNESS
I’M NOT SAYING EVERY TIME YOUR SICK
THAT IS NOT WHAT I’M SAYING
BUT SOMETIMES IT’S AN ATTACK FROM THE ENEMY
22 Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds.
UNUSUAL AND FREQUENT SICKNESSES
COULD MEAN YOU ARE UNDER A DEMONIC ATTACK
5. IMMORALITY
20 Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols.
IF YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A TIME OF SEXUAL TEMPTATION
MAYBE YOU’VE HAD VICTORY OVER THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS
AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN YOUR STRUGGLING
THAT IS A DEMONIC SPIRIT
YOU ARE BEING ATTACKED
HERE IS WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOUR BEING ATTACKED..
GET SOME BROTHERS AND SISTERS AROUND YOU
TELL SOME PEOPLE YOUR BEING ATTACKED
AND THEY CAN FIGHT WITH YOU
THAT WORD SEDUCE MEANS...
TO COAX YOU TO WONDER A LITTLE BIT OFF THE PATH
JUST DABBLE A LITTLE BIT
IT’S JUST FLIRTING
IT’S JUST LOOKING
LOOK, DON’T TOUCH
OH COME ON....
THIS IS A PROBLEM
IT’S A SEDUCING SPIRIT
6. INSECURITY
IF YOU ARE DEALING WITH TREMENDOUS INSECURITY
YOU COULD BE UNDER AN ATTACK FROM THE ENEMY
MANY PEOPLE HAVE FATHER WOUNDS
PROBABLY MOST PEOPLE
AND MAYBE ALL HAVE SOME SORT OF FATHER WOUND
THINK ABOUT THIS...
EVERYBODY GETS AFFIRMATION FROM FATHERS...
WOMAN GET AFFIRMATION FROM FATHERS
LITTLE GIRLS GET THEIR AFFIRMATION FROM THEIR FATHER
THEY CAN GO IN WITH A NEW DRESS AND ASK MOM...
HOW DOES IT LOOK
OH IT LOOKS PRETTY HONEY
THEN THEY GO ASK DAD
AND DAD SAYS....
OH YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL
LITTLE BOYS GET AFFIRMATION FROM FATHERS
AND GROWN MEN GET IT FROM FATHERS AS WELL
HERE IS THE GOOD NEWS...
YOU HAVE A NEW FATHER
HE WILL AFFIRM YOU AND ENCOURAGE YOU
MOST PEOPLE HAVE FATHER WOUNDS THAT THEY HAVE NEVER DEALT WITH
I JUST WANT TO SHOW YOU 1 IN THE BIBLE
JONATHAN, SAULS SON
THEY ARE AT A BANQUET
AND HIS FATHER GETS MAD AT HIM
I’M GOING TO READ THIS OUT OF THE NLT...
1 Samuel 20:30 (NLT)
30 Saul boiled with rage at Jonathan. “You stupid son of a whore!” he swore at him.
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE NEVER HAD COUNSELING TRAINING..
THAT IS A FATHER WOUND
7. REHEARSING YOUR SPEECH
IF YOU REHEARSING YOUR SPEECH TOWARD SOMEONE
YOU ARE BEING ATTACKED BY THE ENEMY
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN???
LET ME SHOW YOU
9 And there he went into a cave, and spent the night in that place; and behold, the word of the Lord came to him, and He said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
10 So he said, “I have been very zealous for the Lord God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life.”
THEN HE GOES BACK INTO THE CAVE
THERE IS A FIRE
SOME CRAZY WIND
AND AN EARTHQUAKE
THEN A STILL SMALL VOICE
WHEN HE HEARS THE STILL SMALL VOICE HE COMES BACK OUT OF THE CAVE
AND PICKS UP AT VERSE 13
13 So it was, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave. Suddenly a voice came to him, and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
14 And he said, “I have been very zealous for the Lord God of hosts; because the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life.”
IT’S THE EXACT SAME SPEEK...
WHAT I AM TELLING YOU IS...
I HAVE HAD MANY TIMES IN MY LIFE AND ALSO SEEN IT IN OTHERS
WHERE MAYBE I’M TAKEN OFFENSE TO SOMETHING
AND I HAVE REHEARSED THE SPEECH TO THAT PERSON OVER AND OVER AGAIN IN MY MIND
IF YOU EVER CANT GET TO SLEEP BECAUSE
YOUR GOING OVER WHAT SOMEONE SAID
OR WHAT YOUR GONNA SAY TO THEM REGARDING THE OFFENSE IN YOUR MIND
YOUR PROBABLY BEING ATTACKED
IT’S AN UNFORGIVING SPIRIT
WE THINK WE FORGIVE PEOPLE BUT THEN WE CAN’T SEEM TO GET THE REHEARSAL OUT OF OUR MIND
IT’S AN ATTACK
CHURCH WE ARE CALLED TO FORGIVE THE WAY JESUS FORGAVE US
DROP IT
LET IT GO
STOP REHEARSING
SUBMIT AND RESIST
7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
HOW DO YOU RISIST?
YOU SUBMIT
BUT HOW DO YOU SUBMIT?
James 4:6 (NKJV)
6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says:
“God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.”
HUMBLE YOURSELF
IT’S THE ONLY WAY YOUR GONNA REPENT
5 OF THE 7 LETTERS TALK ABOUT REPENTANCE
REPENT MEANS...
TO CHANGE YOUR MIND
THE ONLY WAY YOUR GONNA CHANGE YOUR MIND
IT TO REPENT
THE ONLY WAY YOU REPENT IS TO...
HUMBLE YOURSELF
THE ONLY WAY YOUR GONNA HUMBLE YOURSELF
YOU HAVE TO SUBMIT TO SOME BROTHERS AND SISTERS
THAT HAVE A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE THAN YOU DO
OH COME ON...
IF YOU ARE ONLY TALKING TO PEOPLE WHO AGREE WITH YOUR OFFENSE
YOU ARE NOT HUMBLE
AND YOU ARE NOT REPENTANT
TALK TO SOMEONE WHO CAN SAY....
CAN I GIVE YOU A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE
YOU MIND OUT THAT THERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU NEED TO REPENT ABOUT
THERE IS ALWAYS GRACE IN THESE 7 SEVEN LETTERS
WATCH THIS....
21 And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent. 22 Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds.
CHURCH…THERE IS STILL TIME TO REPENT...
ONE OF MY FAVORITE STORIES IN THE BIBLE
A GUY WHO IS LIVING IN THE CEMETERY
NAKED, NO CLOTHES ON
CUTTING HIMSELF
CRYING OUT DAY AND NIGHT
THEY BIND HIM WITH CHAINS
HE BREAKS THE CHAINS
WHEN JESUS SAID...
“WHAT IS YOUR NAME”
THIS VOICE COMES OUT OF THE MAN AND SAYS...
MY NAME IS LEGION FOR WE ARE MANY
LEGION IS A ROMAN WORD
IT DESCRIBES A TROOP OF SOLDIERS
THE STRONGS SAYS “6826 MEN”
OTHERS SAY 6000 MEN
THIS GUY HAD 6000 DEMONS
HE’S LIVING IN A CEMETERY NAKED
SO THERE IS NO BODY HERE THAT IS IN AS MUCH BONDAGE AS HE WAS
BECAUSE YOU ALL HAVE YOU CLOTHES ON
6 When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him.
YOU KNOW THAT THIS TELLS ME..
THAT SATAN CAN NOT STOP YOU FROM COMING TO JESUS
IF HE COULD HAVE STOPPED ANYONE, HE COULD HAVE STOPPED THIS GUY
BUT HE CAM AND WORSHIPED HIM
THAT WORD WORSHIP MEANS
PROSKUNEO
IT MEANS TO BOW TO THE GROUND AND KISS THE FEET
WOW.....
YOU GOTTA BE HUMBLE TO KISS SOMEONES FEET
UNDERSTAND THIS...
YOU WILL NOT GET FREE FROM ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE
UNTIL YOU HUMBLE YOURSELF
THIS IS THE KEY TO FREEDOM
HUMBLE YOURSELF, SUBMIT TO GOD
THEN....YOU CAN RESIST THE ENEMY AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU
...............STAND TO YOUR FEET..........
BOW YOUR HEADS AND CLOSE YOUR EYES....
UNFORGIVENESS
BITTERNESS
RESENTMENT
LUST
IMMORALITY
ADDICTION
PRIDE
INSECURITY
FEAR
THESE ARE ALL AREAS WHERE WE STRUGGLE
THESE ARE AREAS OF ATTACK
JUST RIGHT NOW...
TAKE A MOMENT AND ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT
WHAT IS IT LORD THAT YOU WANT ME TO GET FROM THIS
IN A MOMENT I WILL INVITE YOU TO THE FRONT
IT WILL REQUIRE SUBMISSION TO GOD
AND SUBMISSION REQUIRES…HUMILITY
MAYBE YOUR HERE AND THIS MESSAGE WAS SPEAKING TO YOU
THESE ALTARS ARE OPEN
MAKE THE DECISION TODAY SUBMIT TO GOD AND RESIST THE ENEMY
WOULD YOU COME....
