Satanic Infiltration
Witchcraft, manipulation and control are tools of evils spirits who work through Ahabs (morally weak men) and Jezebels in the church world to ultimately bring sin, sickness, and death. This is a most diabolical threat to the operation of the body of Christ today. Jesus holds the men most responsible (Revelation 2:20-24).
Those who have control issues simply have not given the control of their own lives over to the LORD and therefore operate in the witchcraft of controlling others – something that God forbids as they usurp HIS place in the lives of others. True repentance needed and to denounce the sin of self-idolatry, spiritual adultery, and witchcraft.
***Beware of those who call themselves intercessors today, namely groups of women who behind the guise of prayer are working their control, manipulations, and witchcraft for their master Satan (whether wittingly or unwittingly). They are lifting up what they think are powerful prayers, but they are carnally driven. Therefore they wield the sword of witchcraft. What I mean by that is they project soulish prayers by yelling, demanding, repetitious, screaming at the top of their lungs in the name of spiritual warfare.
Even the sending out prayers and breaking this and that over people can be witchcraft….. much of what is called “spiritual warfare” today in the apostate modern church is actually “spiritual witchcraft.” God will not deliver any person who will not turn their heart toward Him in real repentance (2 Corinthians 3:14-16; James 4:7). We should simply ask God in Jesus’ name and trust Him to do things and stay clear of adding to that simple Scriptural prescription. “Let your requests be made know unto God.” (Philippians 4:6)
Biblical Deliverance Prescription-Wholeness in Christ [podcast]
THE ONLY WAY TO ESCAPE THE EVIL ONE CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE IS SUBMISSION TO GOD WHICH BEGINS WITH UNRESERVED REPENTANCE THEN RESULTS IN ABIDING FELLOWSHIP (JAMES 4:7).
These ladies are presumptuously demanding their own self-serving desires for an outcome that is not the will of the FATHER and some that oppose Scripture. They are not truly repentant with laid down lives and therefore are not seeking the sovereign will of our heavenly FATHER.
“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” Philippians 4:6
In Scripture, there is no mention for a specific calling or ministry for a special core of intercessors. In other words, there doesn’t seem to be a specific intercessory ministry listed in Scripture as in there aren’t just a few special people called out to do this and organize themselves as we see done today. Interceding is for all believers, not just a specific group of individuals. ALL believers are to intercede in prayer to the Father through the Great Intercessor Jesus (Hebrews 7:24-25, etc.). These that we are speaking of here act as if THEY are the reason things are coming to pass or prayers are being answered. One of the characteristics of Jezebels who are allowed to operate is that they take undue glory to themselves for things happening – acting as if THEIR prayers were the only reason that things happened. Jezebel is known by her complete SELF-absorption. They are very self-important. By that I mean they seek to subtly draw attention to themselves as “mighty warriors” for Christ who are more important than others. Any Bible student knows that this is totally un-christlike (Matthew 18:3-4; Philippians 2:3-5). Many of those who call themselves intercessors today are nothing more than a coven of witches planted right in the middle of some local churches (namely the IHOP, NAR, charismatic, KC, dominionism). Satan has targeted and infiltrated the “sanctuary.” (Psalms 74:4-7) There are pastor’s wives whom their husbands also erroneously call “pastors.” And, they train the gullible congregation to do the same. Using that unbiblical title (for a woman) to draw attention to themselves, feigning legitimacy, these women lead up intercessory prayer groups that are nothing more than of jezebellian witches who wield control over the pastor and the decisions. Beware. Pass this warning on.
History does repeat itself (Ecclesiastes 1:9). Right where you’d assume the truth would be communicated there was falsehood. Principally this represents all that claims to be representing Christ, the Christian leaders, local churches, etc.
“Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.” Jeremiah 23:15
Jerusalem was the place of God’s people, the capitol city of their nation and yet “from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.”
Women praying is a huge blessing. PRAYER is taught to us throughout God’s Word. What we are getting at here is the misuse of it. The power, access, righteousness, and glory is only in the Great Mediator though no matter who is praying (1 Timothy 2:5). “NO flesh should glory in his presence.” (1 Corinthians 1:29) Prayer misused to control God and others is witchcraft. Any person (like myself) who has been a part of an NAR or charismatic or so-called prophetic church knows about this.
“Yes, and Amen! Most of the intercessory prayer groups are a cover for a place of ill-gotten power!” Mark
Luanne Hisle sets the record straight when she writes:
“I don’t mean to be rude but “intercessor” as a title??? What’s that all about? I believe the Bible teaches that we ALL have the same access to the Lord through prayer in Jesus’ name. I used to consider myself a so-called ‘intercessor’ too but I have since learned that is just prideful terminology. My prayers have an equal but no greater chance of being heard by the Lord than anyone else’s. All believers’ prayers are heard by the Lord and are answered according to His will. Sometimes the answer is yes; sometimes it is no; and sometimes it is wait a little while. I am just hoping that those who use this title of ‘intercessor’ will think about this. Giving yourself a title like that just comes across somehow as being a little arrogant or something.”
Deceivers utilize and hide behind prayer, healing, and deliverance as a facade/smokescreen to make it look like they have good intentions. Yet, there is no purity or biblical accuracy in what these groups are doing. In fact, many of them are being utilized of the enemy of souls, right in the middle of the church world while feigning to be of God. After all, who’s going to question the emphasis on prayer, healing, and deliverance, right? Well, beware because there are people who are organized by their “deliverance” and “healing” ministries. Beware when you hear these terms being used to name a ministry because this should immediately indicate imbalance. The remnant disciple of Christ identifies with Him – the nail-scarred risen Savior – and all of who He is and what He came to do and not just one of His ministry components. Most, if not every so-called healing or deliverance ministry I have ever encountered needed healing and deliverance themselves. Beware!
The divine command to “FORGET NOT ALL His benefits” is important (Psalms 103:2) Remember that none of the abuse of truth negates or diminishes from the blessed salvation that is Christ – who is immoveable and unchanging. We must never blame God or neglect the benefits revealed in His Word because deceived souls have perverted it.
The LORD provided a complete salvation which includes forgiveness of sins, divine empowerment, healing, deliverance, answered prayer, and a myriad of “benefits.” (Psalms 103:2; Luke 4:18; Acts 1:8, etc.).
“Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; 5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.” Psalms 103:1-5
“All his benefits” come as a result of knowing Jesus and are not to be used to manipulate, deceive, and draw attention to oneself or a supposed “ministry.”
“Jezebel and her Witchcrafts”
To the son of Ahab and Jezebel, the prophet cited “the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?” (2 Kings 9:22) Many wolves have given way to – suffered/allowed Jezebel to subversively operate under the guise of doing ministry for Christ. Jesus addresses this specifically in Revelation 2:20-24. Jezebel is metaphoric of the original Jezebel who ruled out of her rebellion and by means of manipulation, deceit, and cunning craftiness. When compromising, weak, rebellious men suffer/allow a woman or women to operate outside of God’s ordained role for them, that opens the door for that evil antichrist spirit of Jezebel to wreak havoc, bringing death and destruction. In the household or church, when women begin to use the feminine gifts God gave them to manipulate men for their own selfish gain, it is brazen Jezebellian witchcraft. Jesus only used the phrase “the depths of Satan” once and He was specifically referring to the allowance of women operating outside God’s ordained purpose for them (Jezebel). See Revelation 2:20-24.
“Witchcraft” is listed as a soul-damning work of the flesh (Galatians 5:19-21). Witchcraft boils down to rebellion and control. When a person is rebelling against God and therefore not giving over control of their life to Him, they will try to control Him and others. The LORD never sanctioned any human being to control another human being. Any of us is capable of seeking to control others (witchcraft) when we are not giving the LORD the control of our own personal lives. This is a sin and, the last time I checked, it’s a full-time job keeping ourselves under the control or leadership of Christ and His Holy Spirit (Romans 8:12-14).
“Jezebel cut off the prophets of the Lord.” (1 Kings 18:4) Folks, Jezebel (spirit of antichrist) warred fiercely against Elijah and the prophets of God and will continue to war against the true servants of the LORD. In fact, gentlemen, if you are not drawing fire from Jezebel, you may wish to examine your life with Christ. Your fruitfulness in relation to Him is in question. You know, it should greatly concern us if a Jezebel isn’t attacking us for Christ’s – the Truth’s – sake. When Jezebel attacks, “rejoice” because you are like Elijah, a man of truth! (Matthew 5:10-12)
Naboth, Ahab, Jezebel – 1 Kings 21
Jezebel rewards those Christ-rejecting compromisers whom she has captured and who are in the grasp of her dark hand. Example: She got Naboth’s vineyard for Ahab and fed, clothed, and provided for the false prophets who compromised the truth for temporal gain (1 Kings 21; 18:19b). She viciously attacks those who oppose her illegitimate authority as she did with Elijah. Those who refuse to join her rebellion become her target as was the case of Elijah and Naboth. Jezebel seeks to kill anyone who opposes her as she had Naboth killed by false accusation and stoning (1 Kings 21). After killing Naboth Ahab received his cursed reward – an award that was ill-gotten by wicked Jezebel. After killing Naboth, Ahab and Jezebel took over his property and position. They slayed their victim to obtain his goods (21:18) but their “success” is short lived and yet their judgment will be eternal (1 Kings 21:19-24). The same is true today – Ahabs or weak men who do not obey God’s order “suffereth” or allow Jezebels to usurp places of leadership God never ordained and they falsely accuse, slay, and exploit their victims. But Jesus says He will “kill her children with death.” (Revelation 2:20-24) This evil spirit behind is in full operation today. Jezebel kills her opponent, that is, anyone who dares oppose her and her agenda. She then takes over their property and position. Like the original Jezebel, her reign will be short lived and her suffering eternal. The LORD holds men accountable. Jezebel rewards the weak minded Ahabs (morally spineless men) who submit to her illegitimate authority (1 Kings 21:19; 18:19b). As He did in the case of Ahab and Jezebel, God holds that man responsible – “But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.” (1 Kings 21:25) As He did in this case, he will also eternally judge the Jezebels but begins with judgment upon the non-negotiable male headship (Ahab). Men will answer to the LORD for what God has made them responsible over. Being weak is no option since the man is called to fear and serve the LORD first and foremost and supremely – regardless of the cost.
“Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.” Proverbs 31:3
Like Lemuel’s mother (see verse above), God-fearing women always teach their boys (in child training) not to give their strength, role, or calling/authority over to women because God holds the male responsible. Perhaps there is no better place for a young boy to learn this truth than from his own mother. God will hold the man accountable first and foremost and not the woman and so young boys must be taught this in the fear of the LORD. The LORD demonstrates that he will even hold the man (Ahab) accountable in cases involving the infamous, original Jezebel (1 Kings 21). The Ahabs of today are the same as the original Ahab who enabled Jezebel. We are given this information and insight for our own learning in this late hour (Romans 15:4; 1 Corinthians 10:11). Ahabs are morally spineless men who enable the Jezebel(s) around them by not stepping up to lead in the authority of Christ which is only granted to those men who truly fear and literally serve Him. In their absence in refusing to lead, the Jezebel is emboldened to seek to fill that void. This truth should quicken all God-fearing men to hasten to the LORD in obedience concerning their own personal daily lives with Jesus, their families, wives, children, and ministry serving. Notice how that Jezebel rewards the morally spineless, weak-minded Ahabs who submit to her illegitimate authority (1 Kings 21:19; 18:19b). She entices them with provision, a steady paycheck, and other benefits to gain their idolatrous, man-pleasing allegiance. The men who choose to serve the LORD instead of compromising with “the spirit of antichrist” working through Jezebel individuals and ministries pay a big price. They are ousted, shunned, and starved. This is why we need more Obadiahs in this late hour. Obadiahs put their money where their mouth is and ransom their lives to protect and provide for God’s true servants whom He has called out and who speak His naked truth without compromise (1 Kings 18:4).
Jezebel Stirs Up Rebellion
While the God-fearing woman’s effect is to prayerfully and quietly curtail and diminish evil, Jezebel does just the opposite. Watch this:
“But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up. 26 And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all things as did the Amorites, whom the Lord cast out before the children of Israel.” 1 Kings 21:25-26 (KJV)
Instead of Jezebel being used of the LORD to bring conviction to Ahab by her “meek and quiet spirit,” she boisterously and brazenly takes up the mantle of leadership reserved for the man (1 Peter 3:4). The excuse she uses is that everyone is wrong (except her of course) and no men are standing forth and doing God’s will. Jezebels learn a few verses and then run off thinking they are fit to lead men, exercising authority over men which is a rebellion against the clear teachings of Scripture (1 Corinthians 14:33-35; 1 Timothy 2:11-14). One woman who fears God wrote this of today’s Jezebels:
“I do indeed think that the Lord knows absolutely best and if in any way I go against the Lord, I pray the rod of correction will come my way. Eternity is at stake here. We women are too quick to self-justify ourselves according to our own self-serving motives even in subtle ways thinking and even saying ‘God knows my heart.’ But your heart doesn’t matter and what you mean to be doing (your misguided intention) doesn’t matter if you are opposing the Word of God which is the truth by which we stand or fall.”
Without qualification, Jesus promised: “I will kill her (Jezebel’s) children with death.” Jezebel “stirred up” her husband to do evil (1 Kings 21:25). Her rebellion encouraged Ahab to sin more profoundly and brought death and destruction to more souls in Israel including their own lineage. By her rejection of Christ and His Word, Jezebel is given over to the master of puppets himself (Satan) and is a tool in his evil hand to bring forth death to many (Revelation 2:20-24). Jesus told us that Satan is come “to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.” (John 10:10)
“Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. 21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. 23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works. 24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.” Revelation 2:20-24
Now, contrast the God-fearing virtuous daughter of the Most High with what we just learned about Jezebel and her daughters who are plentiful today:
“Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; 2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. 3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. 5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: 6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. 7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.” 1 Peter 3:1-7

FEEDBACK:
MESSAGE RECEIVED:
“I understand Jezebel is in the Church and I expose ‘it’ in my book. But not all women’s groups or Intercessors are witchcraft and Jezebel as most like to silence women today with that name calling. This spirit also operates in men and there are men’s intercessory groups too. Its a spirit not a person although she was the queen to king Ahab in the old testament. Am a Woman, an Intercessor by calling and pray with groups of women and men. Now is this? witchcraft? How do you explain Romana 8:26? What did Jesus turn to the women and say in Luke 23:28? How can he generalize all women’s intercessory groups??? This is not of the HOLY Spirit of my living JESUS!” Greta

“I have always said this and will say it till the day I am no longer living in this universe…Know God and Know His Word. Do not be deceived.

“Nice. Thanks for telling it like it is. I have seen this happen, and it usually glorifies themselves – and belittles the men in the church. I have even seen a church where a woman was offering special teaching meetings held in the church basically on “how to pray.” The men were supposed to be good little students while she taught – so they could absorb from her wisdom. Yikes. Very needed teaching. Grace and peace.” Chris S.

“I am so thankful that you are addressing these subjects brother. Short personal story: I went to one intercession group by this woman and her husband and another couple who were close friends of theirs. A horrible spirit of control -Jezebel spirit was all over this woman who hosted it at her home; leading this prayer group. It was just terrible TODD and a lot of folks came; men and women. She would always interrupt others as they prayed if she did not like the way it was going; Afterwards the two couples would have their own private post critique of the prayer time.. She would get angry at people and very impatient and interrupt to take control again. Well the FATHER ended this group of over twenty folks. It went on for about 6 months or so. She would call people if she was not happy with how the intercession went. I never forget it.” Marsha O.
Message Received:
“I agree…the world and the church has strayed so far from the Lord’s standards that if you openly state any of this information then you are accused of woman-hating or twisting scripture. When it is the exact opposite. Before I was born again, my world was a rat-race, godless and often times I felt insecure. I realize that the reason for the way I was feeling was b/c of the way I was living. When you get into the Word of God, you see there is an order and a place for all of us and when we decide to stray outside of that order, we face uncertainty. It is much more comforting to live the way God planned for us to live b/c He knows us inside and out and what we need. I am glad I found my way home b/c the world will use and abuse a woman and then she will turn around and do the same thing to the men through the “spirit of Jezebel.” Men and women have forgotten their roles.” Jenny D.
Reply:
Jenny, that one floored me … SO true … I get accused of that often … but by His grace I always try to point out that it’s the MEN who allow this when they are supposed to be leading, protecting, serving, honoring God and women … the weaker vessels … the word “suffereth” in Rev. 2:20-24 means TO ALLOW … that simple truth alone opens up the understanding of that passage about Jezebel…

“A Faithful Man shall Abound with Blessings” [podcast]
Do you desire to abound in the blessings of God?
Jesus our LORD taught that as we are faithful with what the LORD has already given us, then, and only then, will He multiply it.
ASK YOURSELF: Are you faithful to abide, to obey Him by obeying His Word? If so, Jesus and the Father are dwelling richly with you and will multiply you according to your proper, wise, faithful stewardship of what is already in your possession – which is from Him. See John 14:21-23.
“A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” Proverbs 28:20
God is not going to add to or multiply His supply and blessings to anyone who is sitting around, doing the church attendance thing, and not doing His biblically stated will – of loving, tending to, giving to, serving, and blessing others (Matthew 22:37-39). Every true disciple is a doer of the WORD (James 1:22; 1 John 2:3-6, etc.). A true disciple is not known merely by being a church attender, which any old dead fish counterfeit can be. No, the true servant of Christ is known by his supreme love for, and faithful obedience to Christ his King, his “first love” (Revelation 2:4-5).
“For all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.” 1 Chronicles 29:14
Every good gift and blessing is from God (James 1:17). We take from what He’s given us and we share it with others – whether that be supply, or spiritual blessings in Christ, or material blessings.
“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 9 (as it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) 11 being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-11
“Freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8
ARE GOD’S BLESSINGS CONDITIONAL? Yes they are. Here’s but one example of how God’s people forfeited His blessings due to living life on their own terms instead of complying with His.
“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.” Jeremiah 5:25
Jesus’ Parable of the Talents:
Matthew 25:14-30
14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.
19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Prayer: Holy Father, I come to You in the name of my LORD Jesus. Please make my heart to long for more of You, to love and worship You as my supreme God, Supplier, and Provider. Please unite my heart to truly fear Thy holy Name and to be quickened by Your Word and Holy Spirit unto obedience. Please multiply Your grace to my life as You are working in me and Your body both to will and to do of Your good pleasure. In Jesus’ name, amen.

The Victory of the Crucified Life [podcast]
The victory of God in your life comes through the victory of Jesus’ life, death, burial, and resurrection. And thereafter, from adhering to His instructions on how to walk with Him – the way of the cross.
“Praise be to God! Glory, glory, O what a wonderful Saviour we have in Christ Jesus! What salvation! What beauty of holiness that can change ashes into beauty! We praise Thee, Most High in all Thy beauty and holiness, and thank Thee for salvation found in Thy holy One, Jesus Christ.” Jon Crane
WHO are truly Christ’s?
“And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts (the cross, crucified life).” Galatians 5:24
Read that verse above again. Memorize it.
There are many who claim to be Christians, followers of Jesus, yet regrettably, but a miniscule few are actually His, are actually serving the Son of God on His stated terms – recorded in God’s Word, the Bible. One cannot pretend to honor the Savior who bled on that cross, was buried, and raised again and yet not be diligently learning what He said and obeying Him.
MOST who claim to be Christ’s live according to what suits THEM, not Christ. “Depart from me” is coming if they don’t repent (Matthew 7:21-23; 25:40-46).
“And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.” 2 Corinthians 5:15
You are no longer your own. You are a new creature in Christ, an ambassador of Christ, the temple of the Holy Ghost. Read 1 Corinthians 6 and 2 Corinthians 5.
“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? 20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
There’s War Going on
“For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. 18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.” Galatians 5:17-18
This war, the warring against the flesh, cannot and will not be won outside of the crucified life and yet, scarcely do we ever hear the daily cross, the crucified life original Gospel message, even mentioned today by pastors, much less taught on regularly. They are what Paul calls “enemies of the cross of Christ.” (Philippians 3:18-19) The days of the prophesied great apostasy are in complete fulfillment (Matthew 24:10-11; 2 Thessalonians 2; 1 Timothy 4:1; 2 Timothy 3:1-13; 4:2-4; 2 Pter 2; Jude 3-4; 2 John 7-11; Revelation 2-3, etc.).
God has already said that you can walk in His full victory – the victory won by the sinless Son of God who alone was crucified, buried, and raised again from the dead.
“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 15:57
And His victory is to empower His people to do HIS work:
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58
WHEN you begin seeing GOD raise you upward into His victory, the victory He alone can bring in your life, you are going to scratch your head and wish you’d heard and applied this cross message a long time ago! It’s going to be one of those Boom Jesus! moments.
“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 4:10-12
“For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” Philippians 2:13
“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” Hebrews 13:20-21
“Wish I’d have known about walking in this original Gospel cross message a long time ago! Why did I wait so long? If you want to have more fruit you must die! Want to to be resurrected and have new life in Jesus? Die. God doesn’t use anyone who hasn’t fully surrendered themselves to Him.” Karen Cochran
Do We Truly Have and Walk in Christ’s Victory Beloved of God?
It’s one thing to say “I have victory in Jesus” and yet another to actually be walking in, experiencing that victory over sin and Satan by way of the crucified life which Jesus and His holy apostles prescribed as the only way to actually possess, or be possessed by that victory. Think cross economy – death, burial, and resurrection – the Gospel being re-enacted in your daily life (Romans 6).
WE CAN only preside as master over the flesh, the self-life, as we are crucified with Christ – and thereby is the flesh kept under the authority and power of Christ, who is raising up into His victory the crucified saint.
Memorize this:
“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 castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9:27
Not one of us is walking in victory outside of complying with our LORD’s cross message – that we must die so He can live in and reign in us. And you are not alone. As usual God gives the grace, His divine empowerment to all who obey Him. Note “through the Spirit” …. Read this closely:
“But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. 12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Romans 8:11-14
According to Scripture, including the above passage, there is no walking in the Spirit, walking in the raised-up-by-the-Holy-Spirit-life outside of being crucified with Christ. We have a whole generation of misled “Spirit filled” professing Christians who have never heard of the original Gospel requirement and message of the cross. Their diabolical handlers are what Paul calls “the enemies of the cross of Christ” (Philippians 3:18-19).
Notice that the fruit of the Holy Spirit is inseparable from the crucified life. Read this closely:
“This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts (the cross, crucified life).
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.”
You do not and will never have victory in Christ until you submit to His cross – to being crucified with Christ, just as He mandates for all who will follow Him. This is His stated term:
“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.” Luke 9:23-24
Only those truly submitted to God, to His cross, are going to overcome sin, Satan, and the flesh and walking in the victory Jesus died to grant each of His people.
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4:7
TODAY, you are either dying downward and being raised up by Christ into His victory – or you are losing, you are in defeat and will remain there until there is sincere repentance, confession of all sin, and an embracing of the crucified life Jesus calls you to.
“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.” Romans 6:1-14
Reading Romans 6 each morning this week is a life changer waiting to happen. Do it.
“They want heaven without the cost …. That is a false gospel message and many are deceived by it. We are to deny ourselves take up the cross daily and follow Jesus. Trust and obey.” Darlene
Holiness is essential and there can be no holiness without the cross.
Holiness is not the way to Christ. Christ is the only way to holiness – and He prescribed, He mandated the cross for such to be accomplished. There are no shortcuts.
“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:” Hebrews 12:14
“But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; 16 because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. 17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:” 1 Peter 1:15-17
“Satan has redefined Christianity with no requirements, no sacrifice and costs nothing. You can live as you please, because God accepts you as you are. It’s been all finished at the cross as many vainly believe. If you truly follow Jesus you must crucify the flesh. There is no way to be Holy as I am Holy 1 Peter: 1:15. without dying and taking your sinful self (flesh) to the cross of Christ. Without holiness no one will see the Lord! Hebrews 12:14 Doctrines of Devils. 1 Timothy 4: 1-2 Yes. They want a ticket to heaven but nothing else. No relationship just a free ticket. They somehow believe God will welcome them with open arms.” Karen Cochran
Why would anyone in their right mind want to be filled with sinful self when we can all be filled with the Savior, with the Holy Spirit? John the Baptised cried out to the LORD with this prayer and declaration that we should all pray right now to our God in Jesus’ name:
“He must increase, but I must decrease.” John 3:30
YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father, thank You for finding and saving me into Your eternal kingdom family through Christ. I come to You now in Jesus’ name, surrendering to You afresh, laying my whole being, my life, at Your feet dear LORD. Please have Your holy way in this life, possessing my heart, mind, and body. Sanctify me for Thy glory dear LORD Jesus. Please wash and cleanse me of all sin, of all that is unclean and defiles, right this moment LORD by Your precious blood. Please fill this, Your vessel and use me. In the name above all name, the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

The Sheep vs the Goats as Defined in Scripture [podcast]
“The goats feed their carnal appetite. The sheep of Christ feed on the Word of God! Jesus’ sheep know His voice. They follow and obey their Lord Jesus (John 10:27). The goats obey their fleshy desires (Galatians 5:16-21), and follow the hirelings and not the Great Shepherd, the LORD Jesus (John 10; Heb 13:20). Christ’s sheep are known by Him! (John 10:14,27; 1 Corinthians 8:3). The goats will be cast out and told, ‘I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.’ (Matthew 7:23). Terrifying words! Are you Jesus’ sheep, or are you a goat, a counterfeit? Search your heart today. Ask God if He knows you! It matters not if we claim to know Him. He must also know us, as this Scriptures clearly reveal!” Karen Cochran
“Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: 24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” Psalms 139:23-24
Of sheep and goats, one source notes:
“Jesus shares the story of the Sheep and the Goats in Matthew 25:31–46 to describe the final judgment. In the story, the Son of Man separates all of humanity just like a shepherd sorts sheep from goats, placing the sheep on His right side and the goats on His left.”
The Naked Truth about Who’s Going to Heaven and Who’s Going to Hell
WANT to see those whom the LORD calls His own? Want to see who the true Heaven bound remnant are? Look at those who are about the “Father’s business” which is the Great Commission (Luke 2:49; 24:47; Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15; Acts, etc.). Everyone else is doing their own thing.
“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 7:21
With their life, the rebel declares “Not Thy will but mine be done!”
With their life, the righteous declare with Christ “not my will, but thine, be done” (Luke 24:42).
“At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. 21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. 22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.” John 14:21-24
“And hereby we do know that we know him, IF we keep his commandments. 4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.” 1 John 2:3-6
Walk and live as Jesus lived? Yes. Those who know and love Him are about the work and “the will of him that sent” them.
Take a look:
“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work” (John 4:34). Jesus then speaks of evangelism, something every one of His people are to be doing (John 4:34-38).
“For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.” John 6:38
“And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.” John 6:40
“He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.” Matthew 12:30
Anyone not fully with Jesus, is against Him, the only Savior.
So you claim Christ as Savior but don’t participate in prayer, support, and Great Commission action? Time to repent for real. The fruit of your life is rotten. You are presently a Savior-rejecting, self-serving counterfeit.
Read 1 Corinthians 9. The first half is concerning our privilege to give to HIS work. Then the apostle Paul speaks of running the race, to the end, becoming all things to all men to see them saved, being crucified with Christ.
The more I read God’s Word, the more convinced I am that the Heaven bound remnant are known in that they are about the “Father’s business” —the Great Commission—and not their own (Luke 2:49). They have laid down and are forsaking their own lives in this fleeting world in their supreme love for Christ Jesus (Acts 20:24). Anyone claiming to be Christ’s and not doing, participating in the Great Commission command … clearly reveals that they are in need of repentance, before it’s too late. Jesus is not their “first love” —which means they are committing spiritual adultery on Christ, the Great and coming Bridegroom (Revelation 2:4-5). Repent and obey Him or perish.
If you are committed to Christ, with no exception, you are committed to studying, knowing, and walking out His Word. You are committed to carrying out the Savior’s Great Commission command.
YOUR PRAYER: Right now dear holy and heavenly Father, please begin a fresh work in this heart. May Your love fill this heart and may You alone be my “first love.” May the love in me for You burn. Let it far exceed all other loves and interests! In Jesus’ name. Amen.
