Helping the Hurting See the Love of Jesus

Spiritual Warfare

 

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God unto salvation (Romans 1:16).  In the End Times God wants us to know how to war against our adversary the devil and not be ignorant of his schemes.  We are not to live in fear of the enemy but triumph over him by faith in the power of Jesus Christ.  God Bless.

"If you brought a bottle of spoiled milk home from the grocery store, would you drink it or return it?  By returning it, is your intention to have the clerk drink it?  No, you return it because you don't wan't it.  Same for returning all evil, because you don't want it."  (Moody Deliverance Manual) Bless and pray for those who curse you, but refuse to receive any words of death and destruction upon yourself or family.  Believe the life giving promises of God. 

Scriptures on Witchcraft and Demons

In the Holy Bible Deuteronomy Chpt 18:10-12 says "There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer, for all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord:  and because of these abominations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee." 

Demon Possessed Woman

In Acts Chapter 16:16-18 a demon possessed woman was crying out "And it came to pass, as we went to prayer , a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought  her masters much gain by soothsaying:  The same followed Paul and us, and cried saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.  And this did she many days.  But Paul, being grieved , turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.  And he came out the same hour." 

Demon Possessed Man

In Luke Chapter 4:33-35  "And in the synagogue there was a man which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice, Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth?  art thou come to destroy us?  I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.  And Jesus rebuked him saying, Hold thy peace and come out of him.  And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of him and hurt him not."

Simon Peter vs. Simon the Sorcerer

Acts 8:9-24

Being filled with Demons or the Holy Spirit.  You choose!

In Matthew 12:43-45  "When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.  Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.  Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first....." 

My Testimony

I just felt led to share a short testimony.  Many years ago, i was involved deeply in witchcraft.  I was going through many problems and the only source that I thought could help me was witchtry.  Having a spanish background, as some people know,  I was inspired by how my mexican culture would do those kind of things.  Of course, that eventually got me in trouble.  I was affected mentally, almost went crazy.  I was very close to admitting myself into a psychiatric ward.  I REGRETFULLY used my anger towards people by not blessing them but harming them in whatever I can and any way.   I also realized that going to Psychics did not do me any good.  They just wanted my money.  I tell you those Psychics charge too much money.  But anyways, their were other things that I did but I am grateful that the Lord Jesus Delivered me out of them.  I eventually gave my life to the Lord Jesus.  God Bless Sister Melody 

Four Kinds of Curses

1.  Biblical Curses-  The Bible imposes curses when people sin. Alot of curses in the Bible are unto death.  Deuternomy 28 - it has many curses.  These curses are there for those who do not obey God's commandments.  For example:  *Family & Labor will be cursed*  Deuteronomy 28:18  "Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep."  Other verses: Deuteronomy 28:59/28:46.  *Cursed people turn against their spouses and family*  Deuteronomy 28:54  "So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom,and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave:"  *Mental Disorder*  Deuteronomy 28:28 "The Lord shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart."

2.  Witchcraft Curses-  Curses placed on us by witches, any kind of witchcraft.  Alot of people are involved in witchcraft.  Alot of people go to witches for the solutions to their problems, and if you are the problem, you will be receiving a witchcraft curse. Therefore, stand on God's word Isaiah 54:17 and 1 John 4:4 and the enemy will not be able to place anything on you. 

3.  Curses by people who are not witches- People can place curses just by what they say or express about other people.  I call this kind of curses "spoken curses"  Of this kind, the worst is what is called "Charismatic Witchcraft" or "Psychic Prayers."  These are the curses which come from ignorant Christians who pray their will instead of the Fathers will.

4.  Self-imposed curses-  What you say about yourself may become a curse.  If you say something negative about yourself, you are giving the devil permission to send you a demon.  Be careful also what you speak on your children and family.  Rememeber, life and death is in the power of the tongue.

What to do about Curses:

Repent of your sins and the sins of your family, be an intercessor.  Remember God is now your Father and you have received a heavenly inheritance of blessing and life.  Bind all curses in the name of Jesus, and cover yourself with the blood of Jesus.  Remove anything from the house that is a cursed or forbidden object- astrology charts, books, demonic pictures, stutues, or games, etc.. Avoid negative talk about yourself and others.  Be faithful to do this daily.  Pray, fast, and feed on the word.  Worship God and be continuously filled with the Holy Spirit, for where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom.  Seek prayer and support of others, and be a giver.  Remember when you were born again, you were redeemed from the power of Satan.  You have been redeemed from the curse of the law.  God is no longer holding your sins against you.  But if you sin and fail to repent, that sin has the seed of destruction in it.  So live a pure life before God.  May he create in you a clean heart and renew a right spirit within you, as you go forward in the powerful and blessed name of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Shalom.
