Love Covers Sins

Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4_8 ESV).png

Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4:8 ESV)

We have not yet realized the power and reality of love. Faith started our Christian journey but love finishes, perfects and refines our journey. Love expresses and completes what faith started. If we say that we have faith and refuse to love others, we are simply unserious jokers. Love partners with faith to make us beautiful before God.

We are instructed in this Scripture, to love one another earnestly. This should be our quest as Christians.

First Cause And Second Cause Of Defeat

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Healing, Holiness, Holy Spirit, Home, Inspirational, Intimacy, Jesus, Miracles, Power, Righteousness, Scripture, The Word
First Cause And Second Cause Of Defeat

Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not count his sin (Romans 4_7 - 4_8 ESV).png

Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not count his sin (Romans 4:7 – 4:8 ESV)

God has cancelled our sins and forgiven us. He took our punishments, nailed them to the cross and healed us. What then is the problem? Why are we still suffering from past ancestral, parental and personal sins and mistakes. Sins that we have renounced and forsaken. Why?

Our problem is the second cause not the first cause. I hope what I have said is not confusing. We spend all of our time focused on the first cause but the first cause is not the problem. Our past sins and mistakes (which is the origin and first cause of defeat) were swallowed, crushed and cancelled by the blood of Jesus – that word is settled in Heaven forever. Why then is the devil playing football with us and dribbling us? Why is he kicking us around?

He is having an upper hand because of two things:

1. We refuse to be filled with the Holy Spirit

2. Un-repented sins

However, I have realized that most of the time, the main problem is that we are not filled with the Holy Spirit. If we are filled with the Holy Spirit, we will be led by the Holy Spirit and He will reveal the hidden and unconfessed sins that we might not even be aware of. He will reveal hindrances to our prayers.

Confessed, repented sins is not the problem because Jesus bore our sins on the cross. Some people will tell you is it because you do not have faith in the finished work of the cross- wrong. Faith itself is a fruit of the Holy Spirit and it is given. It is in measures and grows by the power of the Holy Spirit. You have faith in Jesus and His blood, that is why you are born again by His Spirit and His precious blood. The real problem is that you are not filled with the Holy Spirit.

Any faith you want to have now, should not be a foundational faith but a faith that takes you to greater heights. A faith that has actions of prayer, thanksgiving, praise, worship, rejoicing in and celebrating Christ’s victory, good deeds, waiting upon the Lords and seeking His face. This kind of faith is the type that leads you to depend on the Holy Spirit alone and be filled and led by Him. Your focus must be on the solution and the fullness of the Holy Spirit is the solution.

If someone pushes you into a deep well by mistake or even on purpose and you are in the well obsessing about how you got into the well and who pushed you into the well, you will never device a solution that will enable you come out of the well. You are defeated and are not being creative anytime you focus on past errors and mistakes.

You can learn lessons from your past mistakes through reflections but you should not dwell in, and live in the past or the cause of your problems. If you are trapped in that well and you focus on the solution, you will eventually plot your way out of that well and know victory. Jesus is our solution and the Holy Spirit is also our solution. Focus on how to be filled with the Holy Spirit and how to have an active working relationship with Him.

We must be forward looking not backward looking. The Holy Spirit is the living word. He is the now and true reality of God. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit, you will truly know and experience victory – every knee will bow to Jesus.

I have noticed that when I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I see my afflictions leaving me in the dream. I see myself repelling and throwing up the evil substance causing the affliction. However, if I stop spending time in His presence, waiting upon Him and seeking Him, the Holy Spirit’s life giving presence in me reduces and I leave myself partially unprotected – I get oppressed or afflicted. So, I try to wait upon Him daily and constantly.

Sicknesses are spiritual substances and the presence of God is also a spiritual substance. When He fills us up, every other negative substance must leave and die off. Spirits and demons must also detach themselves from our aura and flee. They cannot remain when God is personality present – I mean when His manifest presence is present. Sicknesses and demons do not give rest but God’s presence gives rest, comfort, help, joy and peace.

The LORD replied, “I will personally go with you, Moses, and I will give you rest–everything will be fine for you.” Exodus 33:14 New Living Translation

The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Exodus 33:14 NIV

The second cause of our problem is the reason why we are not healed or delivered. The first cause which is past, confessed, sins has been destroyed by the blood of Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross. We need to focus on being filled with the Holy Spirit – our helper, garment and comforter. If we do not need Him God would not have sent Him as a precious gift. We need to partner with Him and not ignore Him.

Those who pay the price by waiting upon the Lord and seeking Him daily for fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit will be refreshed and empowered. They are the ones who will truly taste the fullness of the victory that Jesus purchased for us on the cross by His sacrificial death. We were redeemed so that we can die to sin and be filled with the Holy Spirit. We must never forget that.

“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” 1 Peter 2:24

May great grace be upon us in Jesus name.

Billows Of Golden Love

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Holiness, Home, Inspirational, Intimacy, light, Righteousness, Scripture, The Word
Billows Of Golden Love

(2 Timothy 2_22 NKJV).png

Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. (2 Timothy 2:22 NKJV)

This Scripture instructs us to flee lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, peace and love. All these things are spiritual and reflect the character of God. If we pursue them, we are pursuing the kingdom of God and His righteousness. As we seek holiness without which no one will see the Lord, God Himself will pursue us with His love and favor. His love is more intoxicating than any other love. It is better than the love of any earthly man or woman.

Your father, mother, spouse, children, siblings, friends can abandon you but God will never abandon you. He will never leave you or forsake you. Isn’t that love worth fighting for? There are levels, depths and realms of God’s love. We all have His love but experientially, we all taste different levels and flavors of that love. Jesus and Paul lived in, and constantly tasted the highest realms of that love.

The reality of that love crucifies the flesh and makes the world dead to you. When you taste that love, all you will crave for and desire will be that love. That love is the living water that it flows from the throne of grace. Fight to taste and rise to the pinnacle and climax of that love.

When you get to the climax, pinnacle and zenith of that holy love, your spirit will explode and burst out in holy and sacred tongues. You will experience holy fireworks and taste heaven on earth. Billows of golden clouds and love will envelop you and embrace you. He will hug you and hold you tenderly in His arms and you will breathe Him in. Oh the glory of that love. If only we hunger for a taste and continuous taste of that love. That love is pure and indescribable. God is love – His love is real.

We must get our priorities right and know who our first love is. Christ is our first love and He is the word of God. The word of God decorates us with purity and holiness when we put it on. We need to be clothed with the whole counsel of the word of God and the armor of God. When we do that, we are living according to divine spiritual order and God will be pleased with us, and crown us with His living love. The best feeling in the world is knowing that God is pleased with us. When we live in Him experientially, as He also lives in us in intimate fellowship, we are truly blessed.

May Christ truly be our first love in Jesus name.

The Lord Will Give Grace And Glory

Bible, Christian Faith, Faith, Grace, Holiness, Home, Inspirational, Intimacy, Jesus, light, Scripture, The Word
The Lord Will Give Grace And Glory

Psalm 84_11.png

For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly. Psalm 84:11

God saved us by His grace and, He also promised to decorate us with grace and glory. Grace and glory is what will elevate you in this life and make you fulfill your destiny. It positions you to walk in the supernatural. A man without grace is a dead man walking and a man with small grace cannot perform greater than the level of grace given to Him. He cannot do the greater works that Jesus promised. Jesus lived in the fullness of God’s grace and the Apostles experienced great grace. We should too.

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14

We must keep praying persistently without giving up until we experience God’s great grace and glory upon us. When that grace comes, we will no longer struggle with so many sins because God’s ability will be there to enable us overcome. When great grace comes, we will also be filled with glory and produce all the fruits of the Holy Spirit.

The grace of God is precious. May great grace be upon us in Jesus Name.

Another Day In Heaven

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Heaven, Holiness, Home, Inspirational, Jesus, light, Righteousness, Scripture, The Word
Another Day In Heaven

(Hebrews 12_14 NKJV).png

Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14 NKJV)

This Scripture tells us to pursue peace and holiness. Can you imagine how this world would be if everyone living on the surface of this earth was pursuing holiness and peace. The earth would be a very peaceful and loving place.

Can you imagine if we all love one another and no one, tribe or race is trying to take advantage of others. If there were no predators, beneficiaries and victims. Just imagine how this world would have been. Man’s lawlessness, immorality, greed and wickedness is what has impaired the earth and hijacked man’s destiny.

The nations were angry, and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your people who revere your name, both great and small– and for destroying those who destroy the earth.” Revelation 11:18

Thankfully, there is another day. There is another day for believers in heaven where those who have religiously perverted and impaired the earth will not have the opportunity to break in and pollute.

May we not forget that our destination is heaven regardless of our trials and difficulties here on earth. May we all look forward to that glorious day in heaven.

God’s Glory Sanctifies

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Healing, Holy Spirit, Home, Intimacy, Jesus, Miracles, Power, Scripture
God’s Glory Sanctifies

And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by My glory. Exodus 29_43.png

And there I will meet with the children of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by My glory. Exodus 29:43

God’s glory sanctifies His temple or tabernacle. When His glory fills up your spirit where He dwells, you will be truly sanctified and made clean. Every grave cloth, garment, demon, sickness, bad habit and bad fruit that followed you from your old life must bow to the name of Jesus. His glory renews your mind by filling it with the word of God.

It is good to receive inner strength from God’s grace, and not by obeying rules about foods; those who obey these rules have not been helped by them. Hebrews 13:9

Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been occupied with them. (Hebrews 13:9 NKJV)

When His manifest presence grows and fills you up, you will be given the ability to retain and understand the word of God. It is the Holy Spirit that sanctifies us through the power of God and the word of God. Strength comes from the grace of God. His grace establishes us and His glory is His grace. Man’s power is of no use at all.

May His glory fill us up and sanctify us completely as we seek His face and wait upon Him daily in Jesus name.

His Fragrance

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Holy Spirit, Home, Inspirational, Jesus, Power, Scripture
His Fragrance

The Spirit Of The Lord

Show me your glory.png

Then Moses said, “Please show me Your glory.” Exodus 33:18

God is everywhere but His manifest presence or fragrance is not everywhere. Christians have the Holy Spirit living in them but they do not automatically have the manifest presence of God or the manifestation of the Holy Spirit in abundance. They have the manifest presence of God in measures. The manifest presence of God is the glory, life or blood of God that flows out from the Holy Spirit. It is also His love, grace and mercy.

I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. Acts 2:19

And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. Acts 4:33

The Holy Spirit is the one who will release, discharge or emit His glory, life or blood to fill your Spirit where He dwells. Your Spirit is His temple and He wants His temple to be filled with His glory. The Holy Spirit is God and does not increase or decease but His presence, glory, aura, life, blood, fragrance, substance and materiality in you can increase or decrease depending on how you seek Him and wait on upon Him with faith and righteousness.

May we keep seeking His face until His glory becomes a daily experience in our lives.

The Glory Dissipates

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Healing, Holy Spirit, Home, Inspirational, Intimacy, Jesus, light, Miracles, Power, Scripture, The Word
The Glory Dissipates

Is anyone

Jesus Our Magnificent Obsession 3

Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. James 5:13-15

Biblically, oil can be used in a symbolic way during healing ministrations. Notice I did not say holy oil or anointed oil. I said oil. It symbolizes the presence of God that heals. The presence of God through the prayer of faith heals. The oil is merely symbolical. That is why some people use it symbolically and some people do not. There is no record of Jesus or Paul using oil. They were super anointed and laid hands directly on people to effect and actualize healing.

Many ministers pray without oil and people are healed while some use oil symbolically and people are healed. However, it is the anointing and presence of God that heals the sick. The power or anointing flows from God through the human spirit. If the minister is not anointed, there will be no healing regardless of the symbolic oil. Power belongs to God and we must give honor to whom honor is due.

The anointing dissipates and dissolves or melts away. Usually I see the anointing descend from heaven in form of cloud. If that anointing is on a garment or oil , it will typically dissolve within hours, then the minister will still have to seek God’s face daily for the renewal of the anointing. The glory and presence flows from heaven because God lives in heaven and visits earth. Earth is His footstool.

That glory cannot be caught and locked up, in-prisoned or trapped in a bottle of oil. What an insult to God for people to think they can do that. That is the method of idol worshippers, witchdoctors, fake pastors, false prophets, sorcerers and magicians. God said that we should not worship Him the way that pagans worship their gods.

Do not worship the LORD your God in the way that these people worship their gods. Deuteronomy 12:4

Christians need to know the difference between the operations of God and the operations of demons. Idol worshippers lock up and attach demons or powers to physical objects or words and they become charms and enchantments that work for them every time and at will. They control demons and even if they commit the worst abomination and sin, the power works for them. The glory of God departs and cannot descend in an unclean and sinful environment.

There is abuse when people, keep oil at home permanently for healing on demand and attribute power to it by calling it holy or anointed. God is the only one that is holy and Jesus our Lord is the only anointed one. Has the oil taken the place of Jesus? Power belongs to God and flows from God. It flows from the throne of grace.

Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. James 5:13-15

It is wrong for people to keep oil, cloth, and other objects permanently in their homes for healing, protection, prosperity, deliverance and favor on demand. They keep them as temples for God’s power to live in. They then call the oil holy and anointed. They are just like those who kneel down in front of statues. They are like statues, worshipping statues – the dead worshipping, communicating and fellowshipping with the dead.

People who keep the oil at home and use it anytime they need favor are idol worshippers and spiritual thieves. You can be a spiritual thief without knowing it. It is caused by darkness and spiritual blindness. Typically, the oil idolizers will no longer set out time to seek God’s face but depend on the oil. They have rejected God for magic and idols. How can they seek God’s face and renew the anointing daily when they have a spiritual robotic power and machine that they can control at will? God cannot live in a bottle of oil. Anything can be abused.

“The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands.” Acts 17:24

The anointing dissipates and does not last for a full day on any object, like I said earlier, I usually see the glory of God in form of cloud when it descends and I see that glory dissipate after some time and dissolve. If it was possible for the glory of God to last up to a day or more than a day in oil or any object, Jesus would have been blessing and anointing oil and giving it to people to use when they needed favor or healing on demand. He would have sent a bottle of oil or cloth to the Centurion’s servant. We are not greater than Jesus so if Jesus did not do it, we must not do it.

Jesus and Paul practiced person to person ministrations and sick people were brought to them or they went to meet the sick people. Jesus also spoke words of power, authority and faith that could heal beyond distance. He gave spiritual commands and orders to situations and sicknesses and they obeyed regardless of distance because the anointing was upon Him.

Paul was not the one that sent His handkerchiefs and it was not a practice and pattern of worship. Because Paul was constantly anointed and in the presence of God, people intelligently knew that cloths that He had used still had the glory of God on them to heal but that glory would dissipate after some hours. There is no record of them idolizing Paul’s handkerchiefs and keeping them at home as mantles for healing on demand anytime forever and ever.

If people had been able to get hold of Jesus’s handkerchiefs or cloths, the glory would be on them because He was constantly anointed but that glory would dissipate after hours, that is why Jesus was constantly going to lonely places to pray and renew the anointing daily. He did not share out His garments, handkerchiefs or bottles of oil. The glory flows through the human spirit.

If cloths, oil, and other physical objects are kept permanently for healing on demand and at will, that is an error and a false practice. It is magic, witchcraft and sorcery. A woman touched Jesus’s garment and got healed but there is no record of Jesus or Paul giving out their cloths for people to keep in their homes permanently for healing. They still went to the Apostles and prayed when they needed favor from God.

God’s mercies are new every morning. The anointing must be renewed daily, in the place of fellowship, waiting upon the Lord and seeking His face. There is no alternative – there is no other way.

May we reject idolatry and falsehood and glorify God always.

Crave Spiritual Gifts

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Healing, Holy Spirit, Home, Inspirational, Intimacy, Jesus, light, Miracles, Power, Scripture, The Word, Visions
Crave Spiritual Gifts

Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. 1 Corinthians 14_1.png

 

Revelations And Messages 9

9: Crave Spiritual Gifts

Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. 1 Corinthians 14:1

Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy. 1 Corinthians 14:10

After writing about the power of the Lord yesterday, I closed my eyes to sleep last night and the Lord spoke to me and said, “crave spiritual gifts,”

To crave means to ardently and powerfully desire, hunger and thirst. The truth is that if we are not hungry or thirsty we will not be baptized with power or glory. God expects us to yearn, crave and desire glory.

Jesus is the glory and power of God. We need to taste Jesus and eat Him the way the Israelites drank from the spiritual rock that went with them. The cloud is the rock and that rock is Jesus. Jesus is the manifest presence of God. He is the aura, substance, life, glory, power, grace, mercy, love, materiality, flavor, fragrance, perfume, blood and glory of God. He is the God that we can see, feel and touch spiritually.

They were all under the protection of the cloud, and all passed safely through the Red Sea. 2In the cloud and in the sea they were all baptized as followers of Moses. 3 All ate the same spiritual bread 4 and drank the same spiritual drink. They drank from the spiritual rock that went with them; and that rock was Christ himself. 1 Corinthians 10:1

When the Lord appears to me, He usually descends from heaven in form of cloud and sometimes the cloud opens up and I see Jesus inside the cloud. Sometimes He comes in form of light. When He is ascending back into heaven after speaking with me, I wave vigorously and sometimes cry. I never want Him to leave but He would smile and say, “ see you in heaven or I love you.” I would keep looking until the cloud disappears into the clouds of heaven.

Spiritual gifts are our birthright and we loose out if we don’t have them. I have some gifts already but the Lord wants me to crave for more gifts. He is willing and ready to give. I believe this applies to the whole body of Christ. We need to yearn, hunger, thirst, and crave for spiritual gifts without distraction.

Faith is very good and I am a woman of faith but God wants our faith to translate into power and gifts not just mere talk. If our faith does not make us crave for, be led and filled with the Holy Spirit and constantly taste God’s glory, it is a deceptive, distractive faith. True faith will always depend on God and magnify the power of God not self. True faith will lead us to the mountain top of spiritual maturity and make us vessels of honor. True faith will make us desire, revel, delight and bask in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Any faith that ignores the Holy Spirit is fake. The armor of God includes praying always in the Spirit.

Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication (Ephesians 6:18 ESV)

We need to crave and desire spiritual gifts for our own good and the edification of the Church of Jesus Christ. God wants to decorate and beauty us with His gifts but are we willing and ready to ask? Do we really care for or want those gifts or are we just after physical blessings?

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness and holy gifts.

The Power Of The Lord

Bible, Christian Faith, Grace, Healing, Holy Spirit, Home, Inspirational, Intimacy, Jesus, light, Power, Scripture, The Word, Visions
The Power Of The Lord

Jesus Our Magnificent Obsession 2

The power of the Lord was present for Jesus to heal the sick. Luke 5:17

Jesus answered them, “How wrong you are! And do you know why? It is because you don’t know the Scriptures or God’s power. Mark 12:24

how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. Acts 10:38

Some years ago I was in a trance and the Lord spoke to me and said, “ keep away from anyone that practices magic and idol worship. Do not be intimate with anyone who uses so called holy or anointed oil, water, salt. handkerchiefs and other magical objects. By those enchanted objects they rape their victims over and over again and steal their blood and glory.” He further said, “If you are careless and allow that, you will be spiritually raped over and over again.” A revelation

It irks and baffles me when people try to cast out demons and heal by trial and error or by guess work and luck. Really, how is that possible? People who have no anointing should recommend hospital treatment combined with prayer to their flock and not deceive them. Error leads to death and I have seen some people lose their lives because of lack of wisdom. Miracles and healing are acts of God’s grace – period. It is not by power or might but by the Spirit Of The Lord.

All the people were amazed at the mighty power of God. [ Jesus Speaks Again about His Death ] The people were still marveling at everything Jesus was doing, when he said to his disciples, Luke 9:43

One thing God has spoken, two things I have heard: “Power belongs to you, God, and with you, Lord, is unfailing love.” Psalm 62:11

Jesus healed by the power of God and He was very aware of when the presence of God was upon Him. The first Scripture at the beginning of this message says that the power of the Lord was present to heal the sick. Jesus ultimately knew and recognized when that power was present. He even knew when power left Him and healed the woman with the issue of blood. It is all about power and power belongs to God not man.

Jesus separated Himself and prayed throughout the night and in lonely places and He renewed the anointing daily. He walked with God – perfectly. He was a humble, diligent obedient son, so God empowered Him to fulfill His destiny.

Believers will be given the power to perform miracles: they will drive out demons in my name; they will speak in strange tongues; Mark 16:17

Jesus called the twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases. Luke 9:1

This Scripture says power not guess work, luck, trial and error, imagination or tricks. Jesus had mega faith but it was power and anointing that He used. Power is spiritual, material, tangible and real and it is the very presence and glory of God. It is a spiritual substance. The presence and glory of God is what scares demons and that presence was rubbed like royal oil all over Jesus during times of waiting upon the Lord and seeking His face. That presence is authority and power and that was what demons and sicknesses saw spiritually and screamed as they subsequently fled in terror.

Power is definite and constant and it is an ability or enablement to perform or do. Some unserious people spend all their time going after material things, they do not wait upon God or separate themselves. They sleep throughout the night, gossip and do not seek God’s face. Then they expect to heal and cast out demons by luck – impossible. Serious problems require serious solutions and serious ministers. Jesus was not a joker and He was not idle. He was a very serious and effective minister and He expects us to be like Him.

The student is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like their teacher. Luke 6:40

The worst part is that some of these unserious people eventually deviate into magic, occult practices, sorcery and witchcraft. Because they never allowed themselves to be sanctified so as to become vessels of honor, they start manufacturing lies and magic to deceive the unserious and lazy. Think about this for a minute:

1. Statues worshipping statues

2. Thieves stealing from thieves

3. Scammers scamming scammers

4. Ghostwriters hiring ghostwriters

Unserious people love to be unserious just like the group of people mentioned above. These fallen ministers end up giving magic handkerchiefs, oil, water, salt, mantles, beads etc to their followers for healing, deliverance, protection and prosperity. Instead of teaching their flock how to seek the face of God and depend on the power of the Holy Spirit they teach them how to tap into demons and fellowship with them.

The God that made heaven and earth can never live in man made objects. He lives in heaven and in the hearts of men and His glory visits earth from the throne of grace. Earth is His footstool. He is renewed daily and can’t be trapped and locked permanently in physical objects and words to be released at will. That idea of putting God in physical objects or words is idolatry and it is demons that are trapped in and attached to those objects and words not God. Demons trapped in words are released and activated through incantations, prayers and confessions.

Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and the sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood. (Revelation 22:15 ESV)

The fallen and dark ministers are the blind leaders of the blind and they are in front of the queue marching with whistles and banners taking their ignorant, spiritually lazy thieves to hell. The banner they carry is the banner of sin, judgement and death, Anyone who practices magic and sorcery is a thief and a killer. By their magical objects they rape, steal and kill. They cast spells on others and steal their blood and glory. The spells they cast end? up killing some of their victims.

No, it is rather by means of God’s power that I drive out demons, and this proves that the Kingdom of God has already come to you. Luke 11:20

Some years ago I was in a trance and the Lord spoke to me and said, “ keep away from anyone that practices magic and idol worship. Do not be intimate with or close to anyone who uses so called holy or anointed oil, water, salt. handkerchiefs and other magical objects. By those enchanted objects they rape their victims over and over again and steal their blood and glory.” He further said, “If you are careless and allow that, you will be spiritually raped over and over again.”

Life is about survival of the fittest. The evil people know this and use that logic to the fullest but Christians are complacent, weak and ignorant. Do not pity people who practice magic because they do not pity you when their demons and spells afflict you and steal from you.

Separate yourself and keep your aura clean. That is how to be clean and maintain the principle of survival of the fittest. You must not hurt, exploit, abuse or enslave others but you must protect yourself and guard your heart and spirit. Never compromise yourself or allow and position yourself to be a spiritual victim or sacrifice. That is your own survival of the fittest because if you don’t do that, you can become a prey and captive of the mighty.

As an Apostle, Prophet and Evangelist the Lord shows me people’s aura. Anytime I come across a person who is spiritually unclean and infested and polluted with magic, idols and demons, I see it. The Lord anointed me with X-ray eyes and the gift of discernment of spirits and I can see deep hidden things of the spiritual but I can’t reveal a lot of the things I see. However, it helps me with ministry and prophesy. It is a gift and it is for the edification and good of the Church of Jesus Christ.

Brethren, be very careful and do not take things for granted. Run away from false prophets, magicians and their followers. Their followers have already been initiated into magic and blood drinking. Reject quick fix, fake and mammon Christianity and run to the living God who is the source of power. He is not stingy at all but very gracious. If you desire purity and the gifts of the Holy Spirit, He will give it to you. If you allow Him to cleanse you and sanctify you, you will become a vessel of honor.

But Jesus said, “Someone touched me, for I knew it when power went out of me.” Luke 8:46

The power of the Lord was present for Jesus to heal the sick. Luke 5:17

All the people tried to touch him, for power was going out from him and healing them all. Luke 6:19

Jesus never did trial and error with ministry – He was annointed with the Holy Spirit and power and He went about doing good, healing and delivering people because God was with Him.

When God is with you for a specific mission and anoints you, you will know it and feel it tangibly anytime the Holy Spirit comes upon you. When the Holy Ghost comes upon me, I know it. He is very real and more real to me than anyone else. However, I need to spend a lot of time in His presence to feel Him – it is not automatic or easy. It requires great effort and sacrifice and we must pay the price in terms of dedication, consecration and time.

May we yield to the power of the Holy Spirit and never ignore Him. May we reject all forms of lies, tricks ad magic and embrace the one and only true God with love and faithfulness.
