Satan Entered Judas.
But How?

“Then entered Satan (who?!) into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.” Luke 22:3

Just how did Satan actually get access to one of Jesus’ 12? Have you wondered that? ….. Well, as usual, we must look at the whole of God’s Word to discover this – “precept upon precept; line upon line,” … “comparing (collating, putting together) spiritual things with spiritual.” (Isaiah 28:10, 13; 1 Corinthians 2:13) … Read the following verse of Holy Scripture and see if you can decipher why Judas, after walking with Jesus, being sent by Jesus to do His work, being specifically hand selected by the very Son of God, betrayed Christ: “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” (James 4:7) Do and memorize this verse of divine truth. Judas was invaded by Satan only due to his own deliberate neglecting of proper, intimate fellowship with the Son of God. When the disciples were supposed to be praying, they slept. This led to Peter’s denial of Christ and Judas’ betraying the Son of God. Peter chose to repent and Judas didn’t. The same applies to all who’ve been saved today. God grants all men free will and wishes that none perish (Deuteronomy 30:19; Joshua 24:15; 2 Peter 3:9). This is the difference for those two – one repented and the other refused. The same will be the case for millions who were once saved and then forfeited their place with God due to not keeping Jesus first (Revelation 2:4-5; Matthew 25:1-13, etc.). See Mark 14 and 1 John 1:2-2:2.

THIS IS SIMPLE. IT’S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. THE WAY JUDAS FELL AND COMMITTED THE MOST SINISTER BETRAYAL IN HISTORY IS THE EXACT SAME WAY YOU AND I HAVE FALLEN AND BETRAYED CHRIST AT TIMES. YOU MUST REMAIN BUILT UP IN CHRIST THROUGH DAILY COMMUNION WITH HIM IN PRAYER AND IN HIS WORD. WE ARE NO MATCH FOR SIN AND SATAN. WE MUST BE CONSUMED WITH THE POWER OF JESUS CHRIST TO OVERCOME (ROMANS 8:12-14, ETC.).

“Pray without ceasing.” 1 Thessalonians 5:

“Men ought always to pray, and not to faint.” Luke 18:1

“But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost.” Jude 20

“Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11

Now, when we, the very children of God, bought by Christ’s very blood, stay upon the LORD, He fills us and we not only are prevented from betraying Jesus but also are anointed to bear good fruit in doing His work.

Why does the Bible tell us king Rehoboam “did evil”?

“And he did evil, BECAUSE BECAUSE BECAUSE he prepared not his heart to seek the LORD.” 2 Chronicles 12:14

Rehoboam betrayed the LORD by not keeping his heart prepared before Him in daily communion. King Rehaboam betrayed the LORD in doing evil due to his refusal to spend quality, honest-hearted time with the LORD. It’s just that simple. How is the heart of the LORD’s child prepared before Him daily to love, worship, and serve Him? Jesus told us right here in Matthew 26:41 when He instructed us: “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Prayer.

Also, we become strong and “grow” as we daily ingest the very Words of God:

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby.” 1 Peter 2:2

What happens when the LORD’s servants diligently prepare their hearts before Him? In others words they seek His holy face unrelentingly …..

“For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.” Ezra 7:10

As we see here with the LORD’s servant Ezra, he was blessed to do the Word (law) and to “teach” it by reason of preparing his heart before God. Ezra stayed upon the LORD (Isaiah 10:20; 50:10).

“If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet (fit) for the master’s use, and PREPARED unto every good work.” 2 Timothy 2:21

As we see in the verse above, preparation determines just how powerfully God can use us as individuals.

SIFTING HAPPENS IN STAGES. FALLING AWAY BEGINS IN AN INSTANT – UPON NEGLECTING FELLOWSHIP WITH THE ONE WHO SAVED US! READ MARK 14 CLOSELY. NOTICE WHAT LED TO PETER’S DENIAL OF CHRIST IN THE LATER PORTION OF THIS CHAPTER. LIFE LESSON FOR US! PETER AND THE OTHER DISCIPLES OF JESUS FELL ASLEEP INSTEAD OF PRAYING. THEY NEGLECTED THEIR FELLOWSHIP TIME WITH THE LORD AND THEREFORE HAD NOT OIL, NO DIVINE VIRTUE AND STRENGTH TO FACE THE TEMPTATION THAT LIED AHEAD. MEMORIZE JESUS’ WORDS IN MATTHEW 26:41.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ holy name I come before You. I repent right now for committing the sin of idolatry by not keeping You as first love and first priority of my existence, my life You gave and for which I shall give account. Please forgive me Father in Jesus’ name. You are in Heaven and I upon Your earth. I want to know and to truly please You in all things and I know that is all rooted in knowing You. Bless me to know You, to fear, and to serve You truly. Break me LORD! Bless me to break up the fallow ground and grant Thy servant a heart of flesh. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

Do it now. GOSPEL/KINGDOM TRUTH: People must become convicted of their sin before they are broken and shown the need to repent. This truth is essential to successful ministering.

Kingdom Breaking! 5 Souls Saved! Live Action of Jesus! [podcast]

KINGDOM BREAKING: The work of God through His born again “ambassadors” who are about the “Father’s business”, is the infinitely most important and only eternal work transpiring on the earth. Nothing even remotely compares (Matthew 9:35-38; Luke 2:49; 2 Corinthians 5:17-20). After hearing the extensive preaching of the Word of our God (see podcast above), 5 souls repented before God and received Christ as the LORD of their lives! Also, all the believers present asked our LORD to fill, to baptize them with His Holy Spirit and to use them mightily (Acts 1:8; 2:1-4, 37-39; 8:14-17; 19:1-6, etc.). (keep in […]

7 Ways to Forgive [podcast]

PRAY

“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;” Matthew 5:44

LOVE AND DO GOOD TO THE OFFENDER

“Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.” Romans 12:9

REFUSE TO SPEAK EVIL OF THE OFFENDER

“Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.” Romans 12:14

RELEASE THEM FROM YOUR PUNISHMENT

“Recompense (repay) to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” Romans 12:17-19

DON’T CELEBRATE THEIR FAILURES

“Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth: 18 Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.” Proverbs 24:17-18

TREAT THEM THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE TREATED

“And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.” Luke 6:31

STOP DWELLING ON THE PAST

“Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.” Isaiah 43:18

The blessedness of being merciful to others:

“Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.” Matthew 5:7

The only way to prevent holding a grudge, is to simply forgive them – as God freely forgave you through the infinite price Christ paid for your sins on the cross, of which you don’t deserve (Psalms 103:10).

“Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. 8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. 9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.” James 5:7-9

“And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” Ephesians 4:30-32

Being kind and forgiving towards others becomes simple as we look in the mirror and declare with Paul the apostle: “For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing.” (Romans 7:18)

“He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.” Psalms 103:10

Forgiveness becomes easy when we look in the mirror to see the person (us, me) who needs God’s mercy more than any other person alive on the earth! Memorize Ephesians 4:32 now. KJB

“For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.” James 1:20

“Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.” Colossians 3:12-14

Forgiveness Quotes

Forgiveness is ultra important to God. If you don’t forgive all others, you are not forgiven of your own sin and are as sure for hell as if you were already there. If you refuse to forgive you damn your own soul, non-negotiably. irrevocably.

“Forgiveness does not mean what happened is okay. It means not letting what happened take any more of your happiness.” Michelle Maros

“There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.” Bryant McGill

“Love is an act of endless forgiveness. Forgiveness is me giving up my right to hurt you for hurting me. Forgiveness is the final act of love.” Reinhold Niebuhr

“Holding a grudge doesn’t make you strong; it makes you bitter. Forgiving doesn’t make you weak; it sets you free.” unknown

The cross reveals your sin, and God’s love, not how wonderful you are! Repent! FACT: NO ONE, not one person on this earth needs Jesus more than this fool, this pauper who is nothing without Christ! (Romans 7:18; Ephesians 3:8; 1 Timothy 1:15) Jesus died, was buried, and raised again from the dead to forgive, regenerate, redeem, and grant complete victory in this life to every one of His people. Yet, we must do things God’s way and no other way. JESUS JUDGED SIN ON THE CROSS SO WE DON’T HAVE TO BE JUDGED FOR OUR SIN AND SO WE […]

Stone Cold Truths about Mercy, Judgment, and Forgiveness [podcast]

HOW did God say He is known? – “by the judgment which he executeth.” Get ready! (Read 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10; Revelation 19:11-16.) “The Lord is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.” Psalms 9:16 “By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.” Proverbs 16:6 So let me get this straight…. you don’t mind that God forgave you, sinner, but now you want to control who else He chooses to forgive and have mercy on?

Christ’s Non-Negotiable Original Gospel Imperative [podcast]

“He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.” Matthew 12:30

It’s one thing to claim we are with Christ and He with us, and it’s another thing to prove we are with the Savior by adhering to His words. Jesus told us that those who are “of God” hear and obey His words (John 8:47).

If one chooses not to love Jesus enough to obey His stated terms, such a man has rejected the Son of God for the love of sinful self and will perish in his own corruption (Matthew 22:37-40; Luke 9:23-24; 14:33; 17:33; John 14:15; 1 John 2:3-6, etc.).

“Repentance is to TAKE SIDES with God against yourself. It is a CHANGE of attitude toward SELF, toward SIN, toward GOD, toward CHRIST that is so REAL that it RESULTS in a changed life. It is raising the WHITE FLAG in SURRENDER to God and turning to Christ as your only LORD and Savior. Repentance is NOT a work … works are the fruit of repentance (Ephesians 2:8-10).” Trent Austin

Only the counterfeit will get upset at this Gospel message because such a rebel wants nothing to do with taking personal responsibility for his sin, the denial of self, the crucified life to be set apart, holy, and having the Savior reign!

Notice how Jesus knits the denial of self, the daily cross, the putting off the deeds of the body, of keeping under the body (the iniquitous fallen nature) with the destiny of the eternal soul.

“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. 25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?” Luke 9:23-25

Jesus made it clear here that the cross is an original Gospel essential, an absolute imperative to eternal glory with Him!

Each of us proves exactly who we love the most by the way we are living! – God or self!

Everything that is happening in your life now is being allowed by God in order to get you down low into the death and burial with Christ. Read 2 Corinthians 4.

“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. 8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. 12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.” 2 Corinthians 4:7-12

What Did Paul Mean by "I Keep Under My Body"? [podcast]

In spite of all the evil that is me, dear LORD You have been so gracious (Genesis 6:5, 12; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 7; Titus 3:5-7). Thank You Jesus. Please bless this life to be crucified with Thee! If OSAS/eternal security is true, WHY did Paul say he himself that he could be “castaway” from God in the end if he didn’t endure to the end, perpetually keep under his body (the cross life)? “But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a […]

A Living Sacrifice unto God [podcast]

The burnt offering means a complete consumption. What did God illustrate to us when He required His people under the Old Covenant to offer burnt offering sacrifices? His coming Messiah’s perfect sacrifice for the sins of mankind. The ordained way He requires that His people serve Him. Jesus was the ultimate burnt offering. He gave all of Himself freely in obedience to His Father and to redeem mankind. “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” Romans 12:1 In His […]
