If Demons Harrass You

Read this short article and learn what to do when demons harrass you . We all who share the Gospel is in a Battle field and we need to fight to maintain our ground some times. Learn from this short article.


Scriptural signs and wonders confirm the resurrection of Christ. Signs and wonders go way beyond preaching a nice sermon on Sunday morning or praying over your meal. Signs and wonders include healing and deliverance. Christians are called to cast out devils. Sound scary, it shouldn’t? Are you ready to continue the deliverance ministry of Jesus? Let’s get started right now.
Today there are thousands of hurting people that need help. For some deliverance is key. Jesus said the harvest is plenteous but the labors few. As a disciple of Christ your job is to learn from Him and follow His example. Jesus cast out devils. As a matter of fact after Christ was anointed by the Holy Spirit he went into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil for forty days and forty nights. In that spiritual wilderness Jesus used the Word of God against the onslaught of Satan. Jesus did not ignore the devil. Neither should you. Repeatedly Jesus answered Satan with the Word saying, “It is written.”
When Jesus came out of the wilderness He came out with power. Scripture says,
“And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.” (Luke 4:14)
Christ, anointed by the Holy Ghost, went into the wilderness and came out of the wilderness with power.

DELIVERANCE AND HEALING

Deliverance and healing are signs that point to the resurrection of Christ. He’s not dead he is risen! “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). Notice that “great grace” was not confined to the apostles but was “upon them all.” A born again Christian has been given authority by Christ to cast out devils and heal the sick. You can use the name of Jesus against every evil spirit that afflicts the sick and oppressed. Scripture declares,
“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:9-11)
That’s good news for the vexed and sick. In our modern Church world, however, preaching the Gospel in some circles has become powerless with nothing more than a Dr. Phil type of pop-psychology or soulish entertainment over at Club Jesus. We are called to be Spirit-filled and Spirit-led ministers, not behavioral scientists. We have to ask ourselves, “If Christ be risen where is the proof?” After the resurrection of Christ the early believers “went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them confirming the word with signs following” (Mark 16:20). What were the signs? They were changed lives, demons coming out of people, and physical healing.
New Testament churches were full of believers equipped and empowered to continue the deliverance and healing ministry of Christ. Churches were never built to create a self-serving humanistic cult of religious escapists and holy spectators.
True believers in Christ, Christians, walk in Holy Ghost power that gives proof of the resurrection. As already said this is way more than quoting a bible scripture, teaching a nice Sunday school class or sharing with a friend at the coffee shop. Jesus said, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do because I go unto my Father” (John 14:12).
The Apostle John wrote, “For this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil” (1 John 3:8). Everything has a purpose. Purpose is the reason you exist. Purpose must be pursued. Success in life is the fulfillment of purpose. Your purpose, if you decide to accept it, is to model yourself after Christ. He was and is the model son. Emulate him and watch devils tremble.

MANIFEST SONS

The deliverance and healing ministry of Christ is not finished. Devils are still tormenting innocent people and thousands lay in hospital beds sick and without hope. Demonic spirits left unchallenged continue to steal, kill and destroy. The only hope for the sick and oppressed is the manifestation of the sons of God walking in the Spirit confirming the resurrection of Jesus with signs following.
As a son of God you have a great opportunity to show forth the praises of Him that has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. The entire world is groaning and traveling waiting for you to pick up the sword of the Spirit and put the enemies of God under your feet.

REVOLUTIONARIES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

God’s revolutionaries are not afraid of devils. When Christ called his revolutionary disciples he gave them power against unclean spirits and to heal the sick. “And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power (delegated authority) against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease” (Matthew 10:1). Again we read of deliverance and healing in the same verse. It seems some want healing but ignore deliverance. To me it’s apparent that deliverance and healing work together. Receive deliverance, receive healing. Receive healing, receive deliverance. You can’t counsel out or drug out what you are called to cast out. Casting out demons is a clear sign of the Christian believer’s authority.

THE FIRST SIGN

The first sign following a mature Christian is casting out devils. When was the last time you saw someone receive deliverance? Scripture declares, “And these signs shall follow them that believe, in my name shall they cast out devils, and they shall speak with new tongues” (Mark 16:17). These “signs” are visible indications of discipleship that “follow” believers in Christ. Believers don’t follow signs, signs follow believers.
In our modern society we tend to forget that people can be troubled by demonic spirits. We also lose sight that some, not all, sickness and disease is caused by demonic spirits.
Matthew writes about deliverance and healing. He said people “possessed with devils” came to Jesus and He cast them out with His word and “healed all that were sick.” Notice again that deliverance and healing are linked together in this verse. “When the evening was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses” (Matthew 8:16-17).

POSSESSED OR DEMONIZED?

Unfortunately the word possessed is confusing. In our Western culture when we think of someone possessed we think they are out of control. That’s not what the biblical word possessed means in this scripture. A person can be possessed and remain in complete control of their faculties. It’s very common to see a person needing deliverance come to a church service for deliverance. If a person was under the total control of a demon that demon would never allow a person to attend an anointed church service nor come into contact with an anointed Christian. This answers the question, “Where were these possessed people during the day?” The answer is, “Probably at work.”
The English word “possessed” is from the Greek word daimonizomai. Daimonizomai is two Greek words daimon and izomai. Daimon is demon and izomai is influence. The clearest meaning therefore is one influenced or under the influence of a demon. So a person can be daimon-harassed, daimon-vexed, daimon-tormented or just plain old demon influenced.
It clear therefore that the word possessed means to be demon influenced or said another way demonized. This means that a person needing deliverance is harassed, vexed, tormented or influenced by demonic spirits and you have the authority to cast them out and bring healing in Jesus name.

OPPRESSED WITH THE DEVIL

Jesus did not anoint himself. He was anointed by the Holy Ghost. Christ said, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he hath anointed me” (Luke 4:18). The he is the Holy Ghost. Jesus was, is, and will always be God but when he stood at the River Jordan the Holy Ghost came on him anointing him with Holy Ghost power. Scripture declares, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil for God was with him” (Acts 10:38). “Oppressed of the devil” means to be burdened, laden, suppressed, or persecuted. Jesus, anointed by the Holy Ghost, healed all those daimon-influenced. Again, scripture declares, “Himself took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses.”

HIS FIRST MIRACLE

The first miracle Jesus performed was to cast out an unclean spirit. Right after his wilderness confrontation with Satan Jesus went to church. While there a man possessed spoke with a loud voice saying “let us alone.”
“And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, 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 unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him. And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him. And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.” (Mark 1:23-28)
Notice how many times this spirit made it known that there were more than one spirit inside this man. The unclean spirit said, “Let us alone, what have we to do with you, and art you come to destroy us.” This is the voice of a strong man with several spirits accompanying it. Jesus, anointed by the Holy Ghost, responded by casting out the unclean spirit, “Jesus rebuked him” and out they all went.

THE FINGER OF GOD

The Holy Ghost said to me, “Only the sons of God walking in the Spirit can manifest the Kingdom.” All of us are called to manifest the Kingdom of God. One way is found in the healing and deliverance ministry. Jesus taught when unclean, vexing, harassing, tormenting or demonizing spirits are cast out of people then the Kingdom of God is in manifestation. “But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you” (Luke 11:20). Deliverance is the children’s bread, it belongs to us. Devils have no right to put sickness or disease on God’s people.
It’s puzzling to think that a Christian can have a devil but not so puzzling to think a Christian can be harassed by demon spirits or under the influence of demon spirits. It’s also puzzling to think that a Christian can be sick. After all, scripture declares, “By His stripes ye were healed” (1 Peter 2:24). So if you were healed then why are you sick? Could it have anything to do with a lack of knowledge or having faith to receive what already belongs to you?
Before a person can receive the benefits of salvation they need to know what belongs to them. This is confirmed in the scripture, “Faith cometh for by hearing and hearing by the Word of God” (Romans 10:17). Once you know what belongs to you then all you need to do is receive it. That goes as much for deliverance from unclean spirits as it does for physical healing. The Apostle Paul wrote that he prayed for believers to come to the place where they knew what belonged to them in Christ. Today we could call those the benefits of salvation. He wrote,
“That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church.” (Ephesians 1:17-22)
All enemies of Christ including demon spirits, sickness and disease belong under the feet of Christ. Scripture confirms, “For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet” (1 Corinthians 15:25). As a disciple of Christ you are charged with the continuing deliverance and healing ministry of Christ. Learn all you can. Study to show thyself approved a workman that need not be ashamed. Be a doer of the Word not just a hearer. When demon spirits harass use the anointed Word of God and command them to “come out in Jesus name!” Give testimony to the resurrection of Christ and let there be great grace on your life.

YEAR of DOUBLE RESTORATIVE FAVOUR

For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; with favor You will surround him as with a shield.
Psalm 5:12
God’s Favor Gives You Rest

Do you remember the story of Ruth? Ruth was a poor Moabite widow who ended up meeting and marrying Boaz, one of the richest men in Bethlehem. Her life started to change for the better after she confessed favor upon herself. When she went out to glean heads of grain, she “happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Boaz” (Ruth 2:2–3).
What God did for Ruth, He can do for you too. He can make right happenings happen for you. Simply believe and confess that you have favor with Him. Ruth confessed favor and happened to find herself in the field of Boaz. Who do you think was leading and guiding her?
With all our “wisdom” and high IQs, we are not always able to put ourselves at the right place at the right time to experience blessings or even escape disasters. Only God can do that supernaturally. That’s why favor with Him gives us rest. Because when you trust in the favor of God, even if you are not very smart in the natural, God can put you at the right place at the right time and prosper you!
Beloved, when you live life believing that you are favored by God, you don’t have to worry about the things that you don’t know. Believe that God will make known to you what you need to know. You don’t have to live life trying to make sure that you have everything covered. Rest in God’s unearned and unmerited favor and watch Him put you at the right place at the right time!                                                                      www.josephprince.com

                                   

The Depressed Christian


Some people have over dramatized the Depressed Christian. I've been guilty of the same. Not as much with others as I've been with myself. Its so easy for us to find a parallel to our experience and explain it away. 

I believe the danger in such an approach in the long haul is that you spent a considerable time looking inwards and not upwards as we are admonished in the Epistles . 

"Set your mind on the things above " sounds more like a command than a suggestion. Now it can be that the seasons of our life and the circumstances of our life might be one that is very similar to someone else's or what they had gone through. 

We spend so much of our time "in" our experience that we fail to look for solutions. 

The Depressed Christian , ironically never waits for a solution . He looks for an explanation and lives in it till the vagaries of a loosely un disciplined life catches on to him . 

In the process , he not only wastes a considerable amount of resources but loses his spiritual momentum because he has explained himself to keep away from those very things that is going to propel him forward. 

Articles , Teachings , Sermons that glorify your present season as an Eagle's Molting Period do very little to advance you  as much as it soothes your mind and excuses your behavior. 

Ask any Depressed Christian and he would retort - he just does not feel like studying the Word, he does not feel like attending prayer meetings and he just does not feel like sharing the gospel. And the only remark i make is  since when did feelings matter in the daily disciplines of your spiritual life ? 

Now please dont mistake me when I say this. I have been discouraged and have spent a considerable time "depressed " and plain lazy. I hadnt made any progress and the little ground I gained I have lost. Sometimes when things dont go as you planned and you are not making much progress , dont let the travails of your life push you back. It takes as much strength to maintain your ground as you would exert in the higher planes of your life. 

I dont have a 5 Step Recovery Process to Depression because its a very personal occurence. You know best what brought you there.  

Back to Basics :  If you will go back to the time you had it all going and you slowly drifted into this place of inaction - there were things you had stopped doing. It wasnt a one time decision for you to stop reading the Bible or to stop spending time with God. It was the result of a continum of daily excuses that built up the mental energy to wean yourself away from the Energy Sources of your life. If I could tempt you a little today and keep tempting you a little more everyday , at the end of one month I will have you turned around to my way of doing things. Same is the case with the devil. 

This principle can greatly help you . NO SITUATION is BIGGER than GODS LOVE and WILLINGNESS to HEAL and PROTECT you. If you would believe so ; God can prove it to be so in your life. 

DISREGARD EMOTIONS : We were not meant to be guided by our emotions. Far too often we blame our passivity on our emotional - mental make up . We were meant to be guided from within and that within didnt mean your sense knowledge. IT meant an internal awakening of the spirit of our mind to the Word of God.

The fabric of our mind has to be weaved with the revelation of His Word. An accurate understanding of Gods Word propels you forward and not restrict by your looking inward into the soulish depths of your build. Its just not enough that you know Gods Word ; or even Quote the Right Scripture. Its something more than mere knowing or even quoting it out of your mouth . My dear friend Dr SS keeps warning me - you may say the right things you may know the right things but its the RESULTS that matter. Keep depositing daily doses of Gods Word into your heart and in time you will take on a Personality - a Personality driven by Faith - God's Word produced Faith. 

I dont have to feel super spiritual to be anointed. I dont even have to feel that God is with Me to prove that He is with ME. It goes back to our fundamental knowledge of Gods love and power. We await experiences - outside arbitrary feelings to be led in our pursuit of God and the assurances of His love for us. Most of the time , its just our soulish exuberances. I am not against an outside arbitrary feeling. If it lines up with the Word of God , do it , otherwise while you do or dont have it DO THE BIBLE . BeLIEVE the BIBLE . 

I have never seen a Depressed Christian celebrating GODs WORD and HIS PROMISES over HIS Life. He is too caught up in his own emotions that he does not look beyond himself. That is plain selfishness ; if you will pardon my rustic emotion. I may be hurting , I may not have it all going for me , I may still be holding on for dear life but NOT to be available for others because I am so concerned with me and myself and I reeks of SELFISHNESS and pride. Yes PRIDE ! the very thought that i am more important than the rest of the world. in effect we are saying Take Care of me FIRST lord ; otherwise I Wont care about others. 

And lastly - FELLOWSHIP   a koinonia with your brothers and sisters. Be open about your feelings and look for help. I know of a few people in my life to whom I go to when I feel disturbed . I can be transparent with them, I can honestly tell them , "Machu I need help" and they are the best people in my life who supports me with prayer and encouragements and a gradual shifting of my focus from myself and my circumstances to God , His Word and the people. Maybe I should have put this first but experience teaches me that usually the DEPRESSED CHRISTIAN seeks out fellow members for sympathy and true to the adage " misery loves company" they wallow in their own slimy pit of "poor-me" and "oh-my"s .

May I gently suggest that you have a FATHER in your life. No , I'm not talking about your heavenly father for we tend to dis regard His Love and His word more often. A Father who is firm and loving . Someone who inspires you to move out and holds you accountable for your life. For ultimately you are responsible for your life.

Fear of God --- Derek Prince Excerpts


                 Unfortunately many Christians have a wrong concept of what the Bible means by the fear of the Lord. They disdain it as something outdated that belongs only in the Old testa ment and has no place in New testament Christianity , nothing could be further from the truth. Actually the fear of the Lord carries a higher priority in the character requirements of the New testament than in those of the Old.

                We need to ask ourselves therefore What does the Bible mean by the expression of the fear of the Lord . It covers three related English words respect reverence and awe. Fearing God is not a cringing slavish attitude. its the appropriate response of the creature to the Creator - to his omnipotence His majesty His glory and His fullness. 

              In Psalms 19:9 David says the fear of the Lord is clean enduring forever. The fear of the Lord will never become out of date. it is absolutely pure and absolutely purifying. - something that in all ages , God looks for in His people. 

             In Isaiah 11:2 the prophet predicted the seven fold anointing of the Holy Spirit that was to mark Jesus as the promised Messiah. , the Anointed One. The seven different aspects of the anointing are : The Spirit of the Lord , The Spirit of the Wisdom , The Spirit of the understanding, the Spirit of counsel , the Spirit of might, The The Spirit of knowledge , and the Spirit of the fear of the Lord. 

              We might have assumed that there was no place for the fear of the Lord in Jesus. Gods Beloved Son. Yet Isaiah 11:2 reveals the fear of the Lord as the Final Seal marking Jesus as being trly the Messiah and the Son of God. If Jesus was thus marked by the fear of the Lord how can we as His disciples ever feel that such fear has no place in us ? 

              In Peter 1:17-19 the apostle declares the the price paid for our redemption should inspire in us a holy fear of failing to lead lives that give God the glory due to Him. 

             This attitude of reverent awe should govern not only our attitude toward God Himself but also toward His Word the Scripture. In Isaiah 66:2 the Lord says , This is the one I esteem , he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word. 

             Why should we tremble at the scriptures ? Because this is the way both God the Father and God the Son come into our lives. In John 14:23 Jesus says if anyone loves Me he will keep my word and And My MFather will love Him and we the Father and the Son will come to him and make our home with him . 

             In Psalms 2:11 - this attitude of reverent awe for God and His Word contrary to what we might expect is the key to experiencing the kind of joy that only God can give. The psalmist exhorts us "Serve the Lord with FEAR and REJOICE with TREMBLING " 

            This balance between fear and encouragement was reproduced in the New testament Church. Acts 9 : 31 says of the Church in all Judea Galilee and Samaria that " walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit they were multiplied. How do fear and comfort go together ? Yet this combination was the key to vibrant life and explosive growth of the New Testament Church.

Warning - a Counterfeit HOLY SPIRIT !

                 A dangerous spirit is entering Christian churches in North America. That spirit is prophetic, offers visions, dreams, and feelings of peace. It even looks like the Holy Ghost and only the most discerning are seeing it.
               Traveling has provided me an opportunity to experience many things while seeing the ministry of the Holy Spirit in lots of different circumstances. I've seen some things recently that look like the Holy Spirit but are not. There is a counterfeit Holy Spirit entering Christian churches. One of my first experiences was in a particular church service. The minister was preaching, praying, and prophesying. It looked like the Holy Spirit was moving but something was wrong. There was a clash in my spirit and I just couldn't enter into the service. My spirit was not in agreement. I even felt like my spirit was warring against something unseen. It didn't make sense to my head because everything looked right. As the service progressed I stayed in prayer then suddenly I saw it, the Holy Spirit opened my eyes and I saw another spirit on this preacher. It was one of the highest occult spirits I have ever seen. It was a serpent looking reptile curled around this man's spine and laying across his shoulders. It was really difficult to see because it camouflaged itself becoming transparent at times. Later I asked the intercessors with me if they had a witness to what we saw and heard. Like me they confirmed that the preaching was good but something was wrong. They just didn't know what it was. I told them what the Lord showed me. This person dear reader is a popular Christian speaker, writer, and television guest in America. I was very grieved in my spirit after this experience. This man was not flowing in the Holy Ghost but another spirit. I believe the name of this counterfeit Holy Ghost is Kundalini. Kundalini is a New Age serpent spirit.
          Let's explore this spirit, where it came from and how it entered America. Please ask the Holy Spirit to help you see its deception. Don't just take my word for what's happening, pray and do your own research. Later in this essay I'm going to let you hear audio of this spirits' operation in a Christian church. It might even be in yours.

COMING TO AMERICA

The Kundalini spirit gained access to the Western world from India through New Age teaching. It is popularly known as Yoga. Don't for a minute think that Yoga is harmless. Yoga is an inherent part of Hindu philosophy which teaches man and nature are one with divinity.
Satchidananda opening the 3 day Music and Alternatives festival.
Satchidananda opening the 3 day Music and Alternatives festival.
By the time you finish reading this material you will see it for what it is, a destructive demonic spirit. Although Kundalini Yoga is popular every Christian needs to understand that Yoga is a forbidden practice. Scripture declares, "Thou shalt have no other gods before me"(Exodus 20:3). Kundalini is an anti-Christ spiritual counterfeit of the Holy Ghost. My prayer is that all Christ' Holy Ghost filled intercessors across America will see what I saw. To bind this serpent spirit, cast it out, and for every bible preacher and teacher to discern this spirit and close the church doors to its occult operations. Back in 1967 the musical "Hair," opened with the song "Aquarius" with the memorable line, "This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius." This song swept the country and ushered in an awareness of the Aquarian age concept. The song also defined the dawning of a "New Age" with the lyrics, "When the Moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars; then peace will guide the planets, and love will steer the stars."
Woodstock, NY
Woodstock, NY
The Woodstock concert in New York in 1969 drew over 500,000 youth across America and was billed as "An Aquarian Exposition: 3 Days of Peace and Music". New Age Yoga teacher Yogiraj Sri Swami Satchidananda opened the festival with prayer. His real name is C. K. Ramaswamy Gounder, an Indian "Yoga teacher and spiritual master." He was also the author of many spiritualists’ books on "Hatha Yoga" and influenced many including the popular artists Peter Max. Veteran actress turned New Age teacher Shirley Maclaine came along in the early 70's teaching reincarnation, trans-channeling, and transcendental meditation. She writes, "When I walked across Spain on the pilgrimage called the "Santiago de Compostela Camino," I encountered myself in a former life. I discovered a part of me that lead to a greater understanding of myself." One of the common themes amongst New Age teachers is the focus on self. Maclaine later wrote "Out On A Limb" a popular book outlining her New Age awakening. Christians know there is no such thing as reincarnation. Scripture says,"It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment" (Hebrews 9:27).
The Beatles at Rishikesh
The Beatles at Rishikesh
The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. When they arrived in America at New York's John F. Kennedy Airport they were greeted by an estimated three thousand fans. They gave their first live US television performance two days later on "The Ed Sullivan Show", watched by approximately 74 million viewers. There is no question that the Beatles influenced a generation of America's youth. The Beatles were also drawn into the New Age. In 1968 they traveled to Rishikesh, India, attending an advanced transcendental meditation training session at the ashram of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi that they later adopted as their guru. This event drew world wide attention and is credited with introducing the West to Indian spirituality. While there they wrote many songs later recorded on "The Beatles White Album" and "Abbey Road." Guitarist George Harrison wrote "My Sweet Lord" in 1970 a song about the Hindu god Krishna. John Lennon later wrote songs like "Imagine" released in 1971. The lyrics were anti-Christ saying, "Imagine there's no heaven. It's easy if you try....." We saw the Beatles transform music with a new sound and introduce a new spirit into the country. Harmless child’s stuff? Hardly. [Watch the Video.]
Later came Oprah Winfrey whom America wrongfully thought was a Christian.
America's Counterfeit Holy Spirit and Its Name
She is in fact a New Age proponent and was host of the highest-rated talk show in television history as seen by 15 million viewers daily in 132 countries. Winfrey started her own New Age church because she believes in a mystical New Age god calling it a force. She said, “…the force, I call it God.” Trusting in the spiritual self (Yoga beliefs) is nothing more than a perverted form of religious humanism cloaked in spiritualism. Oprah often weaves bible verses in her teachings but clearly holds to a misdirected view of God. If God does not direct a person through His Word then the only thing left are humanistic inner voices, twisted antinomian mysticism, or familiar spirits to provide guidance.
[Watch video here]
On one program with New Age authors Betty Eadie, Sophy Burnham, and Dannion Brinkley, Winfrey alluded to the book “Ishmael” by Daniel Quinn, saying, “One of the biggest mistakes humans make is to believe that there is only one way. Actually, there are many diverse paths leading to what you call God.” A Christian in the audience corrected her saying that Jesus was the only way to God. The panel was upset to say the least. Oprah responded, “There couldn't possibly be only one way. Does God care about your heart or whether you called His Son Jesus?” The point is that man can’t save himself, he needs a savior. Only Christ can fill that role. He is King of kings and Lord of lords. Scripture confirms that Oprah is wrong, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

Meditating Gods Word - Joseph Prince


Meditate On
I will meditate on Your precepts, and contemplate Your ways.
Psalm 119:15
Heaven Hears, Hell Obeys!
The Bible records for us that Joshua, in the sight of the Israelites, said, “Sun, stand still over Gibeon; and Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.” And miraculously, “the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the people had revenge upon their enemies” (Joshua 10:12–13).
What awesome authority and power in the mouth of a man! The Bible adds that “there has been no day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord heeded the voice of a man; for the Lord fought for Israel” (Joshua 10:14).
Now, why did Joshua’s words carry so much authority and why did the Lord heed his voice? I believe that it had something to do with the fact that Joshua meditated on the Scriptures day and night as instructed by the Lord right at the start of his leadership (Joshua 1:8).
My friend, power in your mouth or words comes not by you raising your fist or voice, but by you meditating regularly on God’s Word. For example, when you meditate often on God’s promises regarding healing, faith comes alive in your heart, and that sickness or disease will have to leave when you say, “Get out!”
The more you meditate on the Lord’s grace and His promises, the more they’ll become real to you until faith is effortless. Then, like Joshua, when you speak, heaven hears and hell obeys!

Word through Andrea Aasen

From Visitation on November 2, 2013 
I woke up with a visitation from the Fear of the Lord like I have never had before. This visitation has personal application for the nations.  
Then the Lord took me into a vision, and this, too, was unlike what I have ever seen or experienced . . . He took me to see the actual fulfillment of the following scriptures . . . He held my hand, and led me on a "tour" to see what was coming, and I traveled to see us "living" in the following . . . 
 First, the visitation of the Fear of the Lord came, and I saw the Lord coming in His Holiness and Grace. And the Fear of the Lord surrounded us with a circle of fire. 
1.)  Suddenly, I entered into Zechariah 2:4-5, where I saw the fire encircle us (no walls / boundaries anymore) and in middle of the fire was the "glory in her midst". 
2.)  Then I entered into Matthew 5:14, and I saw the "Light of the World", which was this glory being "seen". 
3.)  The Lord next took me into Isaiah 49:6, where He showed me this light going to the nations.
4.)  Next into Isaiah 60 - to see the glory of Zion.
Then I heard the Lord say, "fortification is coming" . . . He is making the city strong.  
 And I next went into . . . 
5.) 1 Peter 2:6 - a rebuilding of the cornerstone of Zion, and I saw the houses of the Lord being rebuilt / restored . . . literally I saw tons of thousands, upon thousands, upon thousands - as far as you could see, working to restore the house. 
6.) And I then saw Isaiah 40:3 and Malachi 3:1 - and I saw the Body being aligned in body, soul, and spirit.  There was a huge angel with a great tuning fork striking it, and as he struck the sound was released, and with each strike I saw the breath of God coming forth, but His breath was fire and the Life was in the Fire.  The Body was being prepared, and the Purifier / the Helper came (I was taken to see Jesus' body in the tomb being prepared and then His rising and the release of the Spirit / our helper coming to dwell in our midst . . . and I saw the prophetic that was released in that moment to be "activated" now).  And another angel came and sounded a great trumpet, and I saw it shaking and crumbling mountains. And I heard the Julie Meyer song, "Prepare the Way of the Lord" sounding, echoing, in great weight.   
7.) And then I saw into Matthew 3:11-12, where I saw Angels of Fire coming with the wind, and burning up all the chaft. And God said a "fresh fire" is coming like never before . . . a corporate baptism of fire. He said it's a "restoration of fire" . . . and I saw the same angel of restoration that had visited previously, and again His eyes danced with fire . . . and this time he looked on the face of the nations and the nations looked back, and I saw Him pointing to Jesus . . . and I saw the eye of the Lord and eyes of His people, and He was looking at us, but we were looking back . . . it was a restoration of "first love". 
8.) And lastly I saw Revelation 1:8, and I saw a twisting and turning and bending and folding in the spirit - a dimension in time coming into an activation and release with the Spirit - the Almighty God being made known in fullness.  And I saw the former generation meeting with the latter generation, which was a prophetic act to release the fullness of God . . . what I actually saw was an embodiment of the Lord, where He was now able to be seen as "Alpha and Omega" . . . an actual "veil" that was removed from eyes, and the "yes" of the people was made known . . . this happened when the unity arose between the former and latter  . . . a joining to bring about "He that was, and is, and is to come."  
THE TREASURE CHEST
And I saw a treasure chest with a lock and key being opened to reveal the mysteries of Heaven to the sons of God. The interesting part was that the treasure chest had already been opened, but I saw the sons surrounding it, and they were asking for and receiving the revelation being released with open arms.  And then I saw a great banquet table, and I saw the "hunger" of God being stirred (I saw their bellies and a swirling of fire entering into each one to draw forth a great hunger), and they salivated and waited at the table for the meal to be served . . . and when the meal came it was devoured, but as they ate the food kept coming - it just kept multiplying and never ran out . . . and they just kept eating and eating and eating (they were very undignified while eating I might add . . . LOL), just devouring all they could and couldn't eat fast enough.  And as the invitation was extended, and the table grew to accommodate more . . . and there was always enough . . . and I heard a voice in heaven echoing that phrase "There is always enough!!"   
After the vision, I went into prayer, and I saw an individual holding a treasure chest, and in the chest was a "remembrance" of all of their plowing and sacrifices . . . and the chest was filled with seeds . . . just filled and overflowing with seeds.  And I heard the Lord say that a TOTAL RESTORATION is coming.
