The Possession

ONE OF MY OWN FAVORITE EXPRESSION IS THAT “THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS BEING A LITTLE BIT PREGNANT”.

NOW THIS APPLIES TO ALL CULTS,  WEIRDO’S , EXTREMISTS  INCLUDED. WHEN THEY TEND TO GO OVERBOARD, THEY TEND TO GO REALLY OVERBOARD, EVEN THE FALSE PENTECOSTAL OR EVANGELICAL GROUPS NOW TOO, FOR WHEN THEY ARE WRONG IN ONE ERROR   THEY TEND TO HAVE MANY OTHER MAJOR BIBLICAL DOCTRINAL ERRORS.  AND WHY IS THAT NOW?

NOW ANOTHER GOOD INDICATION TO ME IS HOW ANY PERSON OR GROUPS STANDS IN THEIR VIEW OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.. DO THEY SEE HIM AS GOD, DO THEY ALSO ADMIT, TALK ABOUT HIS GIFTS MINISTRY, PERSONALITY AS WELL

NOW THAT IS SO TRUE WHEN THEY ARE WRONG IN SUCH A VITAL AREA  THEY ARE NEXT WRONG IN SO MANY CAUSE THEY ARE STILL BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT OF DEMONS AND NOT THE HOLY SPIRIT.

In Luke 13:16, Christ cast a demon out of a ‘daughter of Abraham’.

In Matthew, chapter 16, Jesus had just concluded His explanation to His disciples on the true nature of His earthly mission-that He must suffer and die (verse 21). Peter immediately spoke up in an effort to dissuade Christ from going to the cross: “Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!” (verse 22). The response of Christ was abrupt and stern. “Get behind Me, Satan!” Jesus said to Peter (verse 23).

In Acts chapter 5, Ananias and Sapphira, members of the early church, lied to the apostle Peter. They had sold some possessions to give to the church, and then had second thoughts and conspired to keep back a portion for themselves. When Peter asked them what amount they had received for the sale, Ananias and Sapphira lied. What was the source of that lie? The apostle Peter said, “Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit” (verse 3). In judgment, God struck them dead. If we accept the assumption that Ananias and Sapphira experienced the new birth in Christ, yet  how else can we explain away the fact that their hearts were filled by Satan to such an extent that they were capable of committing a sin worthy of such abrupt and severe divine judgment?

1 Thessalonians 4:3   Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.

You see that even the initially  Holy Spirit filled Christian can falsely still oppose the Holy Spirit next.

Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

The Apostle Judas typifies for  me what a BAD CHRISTIAN is really like.. Judas  is infamously known for his kiss and betrayal of Jesus to the hands of the chief Sanhedrin priests in exchange for a payment of thirty silver coins andh His place among the Twelve Apostles was later filled by Matthias.;  yet woe is upon him, and he would have been better unborn (Matthew 26:23–25).   from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place. ( Acts 1:25) 

Some read Iscariot to mean “man of Kerioth,” a city in Judea. This would make Judas the only Judean in the group and an outsider. Others argue that a copyist error transposed two letters and that Judas was named “Sicariot,” a member of the party of the Sicarii. This comes from the Greek word for “assassins” and was a group of fanatical nationalists who thought that the only good Roman was a dead Roman. Judas Iscariot could have been, then, Judas the Terrorist.

We can all easily all know that while Judas professed to follow Jesus Christ, he not only did not give up his stealing ways, but he betrayed Jesus for money, and reelected Jesus because Jesus was not going to reestablish  the Jewish nation as the world wide religious center. Judas expected Jesus to overthrow Roman rule of Israel. In this view, Judas is a disillusioned disciple betraying Jesus not so much because he loved money, but because he loved his country and thought Jesus had failed it  Matthew 27:3    Then Judas, which had betrayeth him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that. 5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in.8 Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;10 And gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord appointed me.

Most Christians still consider Judas a traitor. Indeed the term Judas has entered many languages as a synonym for betrayer. so Judas does not appear in an of the Epistles of Paul, as He who endures to the end shall be saved..

Now Judas was a Christian,, follower of Jesus who became undeniably Demon possessed and next went to hell. you always have a free will and you chose what spirit you do still have next too. More correctly, the word translated “possession” should simply be rendered “demonized,” that is, under the influence of a demon. 

By the way I cast out 2 demons out of two Christian people in my church after they had repented. .. one was the pastor’s daughter who committed fornication, and the other one HAD made a bind with Satan ..Like I said let the Holy Spirit teach you here not false men.. there is nothing good in men.

Before  I first became involved in exorcisms, I too had assumed that a Christian was immune from the torment of demons. I based that assumption on the influence of other supposedly Christian leaders who convinced me of this.   “The Holy Spirit and an evil spirit can’t dwell in the same vessel.” “Light and darkness cannot co-exist.” The Holy Spirit showed me otherwise..

Anyone searching the Word of God more diligently about the matter of demons influencing Christians, can see that the issue wasn’t as conclusive as  most people had thought. 

The pastors and Bible teachers who had repeatedly reinforced the “Christians can’t have a demon” outlook had very little practical experience with the phenomenon. Clearly even the lack of experiential testimony about such a crucial area of spiritual deliverance was a glaring weakness.. People who are not even filled, baptized with the Holy Spirit falsely want to teach someone who is? absurd! 

Man is a tripartite being (1 Thessalonians 5:23), and there are aspects of the human body, soul, mind  that Satan can always occupy. While he is prohibited from touching the spirit of God’s saints, nothing prevents him from possessing, tormenting the body and soul-if the disobedient conduct of a Christian allows him to do so. 1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

If you continue to sin the last verse does not apply. Casting a demon out of a believer is practiced in many , many churches today as well, I have been to a few of them too. 

In  Ephesians 4:23 Christians are admonished to “be renewed in the spirit of your mind.” If even the mind of the Christian needs renewal, then it stands to reason that when our minds are not renewed, they may be, to some degree, under the control of the ungodly forces.2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 

1 Peter 5 :8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Active and not passive resitance twoards the devil is always required. “Present your bodies a living sacrifice,” we read in Romans 12:1. This means our bodies may not be completely sacrificed to God, and could therefore be  CONTROLLED  by Satan.    James 4: 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Demon possession includes a demon having direct/complete control over the thoughts and/or actions of a person possessed. What you do not believe a dog can return to his vomit?

2 Peter 2: 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.

Matt 12: 43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. 44 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. 45 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. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.

Demonic “possession”  means a demon can manifest through the host’s faculties-that is, see with the eyes, speak through the vocal cords, and even subject the person to a trance state of mental oblivion. Deliverance comes when the demon inside is cast outside.   

What about those instances in which a demon manifests in a Christian? In most cases the demon likley had entered before the believer’s conversion to Christianity some say, and the evil spirit continued to control some part of the person’s life because the specific occult sin was never renounced. The demon claims squatter’s rights.

Mark 5:1-20 is the definitive passage on demon possession and its effects in the Bible. Some of the details about demons the Bible reveals in this passage are:

1. Devils want to be near dead human bodies or tombs (vs. 2, 3, 5).

2. They can cause unusual strength (vs. 3-4).

3. They can make a person unreasonable or immune to sensible persuasion (vs. 4).

4. They cause excessive crying (vs. 5).

5. They cause sadistic and masochistic behavior (vs. 5).

6. They have an affinity for heights (vs. 5).

7. They recognize Christ as “the Son of God” and appeal to Him (vs. 6-7).

8. They know they deserve torment and dread it (vs. 6-7).

9. They have names (vs. 9).

10. More than one can possess the same body (vs. 9).

11. They desire to stay in the same geographical region or “country” (vs. 10).

12. They would rather indwell an animal body than none at all (vs. 12).

13. They can cause animals to kill themselves (vs. 13).

14. They desire to be in a body when it dies (vs. 13).

15. They have a desire for water (vs. 13).

Mark 9:17-29 gives us even more details about devils:

16. They can cause dumbness and deafness (vs. 17, 25).

17. They cause rabid animal like behavior (vs. 18).

18. They can indwell from childhood (vs. 21).

19. They cause suicidal behavior (vs. 22).

20. They resist leaving a body and violently “rent” it while leaving (vs. 26).

21. There are different kinds of devils. Some have more power than others (vs. 29).

22. Some can only be removed by prayer and fasting of believer (vs. 29).

How Does Possession Come About? Uncontrolled anger,  Unforgiveness,  Fear, Unbelief, sexual immorality, impaired, drunkeness, occult involvement, cursing others, witchcraft , etc.

.
“If you’re a Christian and you don’t think you can have a demon – You have a demon,”

.
Demon possessed by a tormentor.. God’s spirit in King Saul was replaced by an evil spirit 1 Samuel 16:14 14But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him. 15And Saul’s servants said to him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubles you. 16Let our lord now command your servants, which are before you, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is on you, that he shall play with his hand, and you shall be well. … .Saul was afflicted with “an evil spirit” as a punishment for his insistent defiance of God’s will. He had committed flagrant violation of God’s commands on two previous occasions (1 Samuel 13:13-14; 15:11,19)…

.

Matthew 18:34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him..

.

1 Corinthians 5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5To deliver such an one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 6Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? The devil by nature is a murderer (John 8:44). His rebellion against God changed his character and has made him a force that naturally kills and destroys all that comes under his power.
In Revelation 9:11, he is called Abaddon and Apollyon. Both names mean Destroyer. Paul understands that someone may be delivered “unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh” (1Corinthians 5:5).

.
So, what about the sending of evil spirits by the Lord? This may be more common in scripture than you think. In Psalm 78:49, God judged Israel “by sending evil angels among them.” In Judges 9:23, “God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem.” In 1Kings 22:22, God sent a “lying spirit” in the mouth of the false prophets to send Ahab to his death. In the passage in question (1Samuel 16:14-15), God removed His Spirit from the disobedient Saul. This opened the door for an evil spirit to come and torment Saul. Though in this passage, it is only the servants of Saul that said the evil spirit was from the Lord, in other passages (1Samuel 18:10; 19:9), the text states that the evil spirit came from the Lord. When God removes His protective hand,the Lord allowed or permitted the distressing spirit to come upon Saul, he often turns the person over to Satan for destruction or to an evil spirit for torment. The devil and the evil spirits do the work, but God has allowed them to do what come natural to them for His own purpose.He uses evil to chastise evil” I know this concept it is thoroughly established in scripture. God does not commit wickedness, but He uses the wicked for His purpose. In the end, God will have His glory. How much better it is for us to submit to Him and obey Him willingly.

.

When adequate evidence is gathered, the facts may be understood in such a way that God is shown to be righteous and free from unfair treatment of Saul. Like every other accountable human being who has ever lived, Saul made his own decisions, and reaped the consequences accordingly God does allow evil spirits to torment people today, He still does so for all of our good, as an example to others, and for His glory

.
Romans 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;  

.

”Demonic transference of spirits via sex is the transference of evil or unholy spirits via sexual intercourse activities.There is a very powerful transference of spirits via sex and it is the easiest ways through which evil spirits are transferred easily from one person to another. In every 100 percent of negative or unholy transference of spirits; over 85 percent are traceable from or to someone past very rough sexual activities. The Holy Bible tells us in (1Cor.6:16) that if you are jointed sexually with a harlot ; you both become one, so, if you have sexual relationship with a highly demonized persons or occultist agents, witchcraft agents, fetish priests, marine human agents; this would easily bring unholy transference of spirits from such a person to anyone involved.” Curse or curses from God as a result of immorality/sexual perversion practices (Lev.18:1-30;Lev.20:13;Lev.18:22;Romans1:26-27). 

.

“Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.” -1st Corinthians 10:8

.

MORE of the ways in which demons can be transferred easily via unholy sexual activities: 1.Illicit sexual involvement( not yet married but having illicit sexual affairs of fornication) can delay someone not to get married in time; because, demons can easily pass through such an express avenue to delay or block someone marriage.

2.Infidelity:Immoral act by either on the side of a man or woman within any instituted marriage life can easily open door for demons transferring or invading the party involved(Deut.22:22;Lev.20:10;Matt.5:27-28).

3.Homosexuality(lesbianism/Gay) sexual activities undertakings (Lev.20:13).

4.Bestiality sexual involvement( man having sex with an animal/woman having sex with an animal)Exo.22:19;Lev.20:15-16.

5.Incest sexual activities involvements: An act of having sexual intercourse with someone that is very close to oneself(abomination):

a. Unholy sexual activities with one’s parent(man or woman):Lev.18:7.

b.Unholy sexual activities with one’s stepmother:Lev.20:11;Lev.18:8.

c. Unholy sexual activities with one’s sister:Deut.27:22;Lev.20:17.

d. Unholy sexual activities with one’s aunt:Lev.18:12-13;Lev.20:19.

e. Unholy sexual activities with one’s uncle:Lev.18:14.

f. Unholy sexual activities with one’s daughter -in – law:Lev.18:15;Lev.20.12.

g. Unholy sexual activities with one’s brother’s wife:Lev.18:15;Lev.20:21.

h. Unholy sexual activities with a mother and grand daughter:Lev.18:17.

i. Unholy sexual activities with two sisters:Lev.18:18.

j. Unholy sexual activities with one’s sister – in – law :Lev.20:21.

k. Unholy, immoral sexual activities with one’s grandchild, relative

6.Sexual intercourse undertakings during one’s menstruation:Lev.20:18;Lev.18:19.

7.Anal sex practices or  8.Oral sex practices.

9.Harlotry promotions, practices and visitations(1Cor.6:9).

10.Nude beaches promotions, practices and visitations “nude beaches are existing presently in some western countries”.

.

Face it too It can ALL NOW also led to someone having demonic spiritual husband/wife and children IN REALITY WHO STILL EVEN FALSELY THINK THEY ARE Christians

.

And there is no place in the Bible that conclusively says Christians can’t be possessed. But, on the contrary, there are passages that do indicate that demon possession of believers CAN occur when they backslide from God.

.

1 Timothy 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

.

To sum up what we learned above, we know Satan and devils do exist, we know they are unembodied spirits that work in the spiritual realm, they desire to and are able to indwell humans (also animals) and influence their bodies and minds for evil, they vary in power and authority, but all are more powerful than man, and they can be controlled or cast out by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ if you confess your sins and turn your life to Jesus, all of it..

.
As per “my biggest demons would have too be alcohol lust and swearing” or “sexual lusts” means you have not died to self, have not taken up your Cross, you still do not have the fruit of the holy spirit, the filling of the holy Spirit, to over come the lust of the flesh.. Admit your sins, confess them and become Holy Spirit Baptized.. the only way you can be delivered from these demons

.

Demons have been here since the beginning of human history.  The same demons that infiltrated the antediluvian civilization in the days of Noah are alive and active today.  They have infiltrated every area of life from childhood to adulthood, from play to marriage, from sports to work.  They EVEN DO falsely seek to destroy Marriage Culture,

.

 In 1 Corinthians 6 and 7, Paul reprimanded the Church, the Christian  strongly for their marital infidelity. 1 cor 6:1 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 12    All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.19 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.

.

Mark 4:19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

.

Romans 6: 12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

.

Romans 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

.

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

.

Romans 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

.

1 Corinthians 10:6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

.

Galatians 5:16 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.

.

24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

.

And there followed another angel, saying, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink of the wine of the passion of her fornication. (Revelation 14:8)

 .

and upon her forehead a name was written, a mystery, “BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF WHORES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” (Revelation 17:5)

.

Hell is a real place where those who go there are “tormented day and night forever and ever;” not a temporary holding place, not a place where the unjust suffer for a time and then fade into nonexistence. Hell is a real place that lasts forever and there will be “weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Matthew 13:42) because the punishment is conscious.

.

Is it worth it all?

“Really is being someone’s wife and another’s mother  really worth the  full investment of a life? Does it take preparation of skills,  concentration of energies, and the commitment of both to keep a happy home? ” Can  she even have a significant input , contribution into her husband and her  children now too? and here too one will reap what one  has sown here as well..  

.

Firstly still many ” Women have been  liberated right out of the genuine freedom they enjoyed for centuries to oversee  the home, rear the children, and pursue personal creativity; they have been  brainwashed to believe that the absence of a titled, payroll occupation enslaves  a woman to failure, boredom, and imprisonment within the confines of home. “ Men  and even pastors  too have made these same errors, seduced  that a career  advancement is more important over meeting all the needs of your family. Realize  still   the important role a woman plays in the development of a Christian home.  A woman who has God rightfully as the center of her life  will prove to be the most valuable asset, influence  to her husband, her  children and many others too. In Proverbs 31, Solomon highlights the life of a  “worthy woman.” He sets forth a number of important roles for such a woman  including being a good woman, a good wife, a good mother, and a good neighbor.  By displaying such roles, a worthy woman will not only benefit those around her,  but she will also bring to herself and to her own husband a good  name..

.

If a person has never known real   love   then it  is a hard for them next even to show it to their spouse or children. As per  Titus 2:4-5. A the young women are to be taught how to love their husbands and  their children! This indicates that we need to be taught to love.. How many got  this teaching these days? Very few.. Titus 2 also  states that the young wives  are to be self-controlled and pure. Self-control is one of the fruit  of the  Holy Spirit that few people have yet; Also purity springs from the  love for the  Lord Jesus Christ as  even Philippians 1 makes it  clear. And 1 John 4:19 We  love him, because he first loved us. 

.

1 Cor. 13:4-8 also now tells us: ‘Love is patient,  love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not  rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of  wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in the truth. It always  protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never  fails

Most Women today are  also still so disconnected  from maturity, decency that they marry or move in with the richest, or the  most  handsome man they can find, despite his suspected, quite flawed personality,   character,  and they will sooner or later weep for it too. It is thus all not  surprising when they spend so much time in the pigs pen instead of eating from  the Word of God, Jesus Christ and the Bible.. 2 Corinthians 5: 17 Therefore if  any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold,  all things are become new.

 ‘Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ  is born of God, and everyone who loves the Father loves His child as well. This  is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out  His commands. And His commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God  overcomes the world. This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our  faith. Who is he that overcomes the world? Only he that believes that Jesus is  the Son of God.’ (1 John 5:1-5). Christ is the strength of the believer’s life,  He has given us His Holy Spirit as our Counsellor. (See John 16: 5-15) 

.

‘I lift up my eyes to the hills – where does my  help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.’  (Psalm 121:1-2)

It’s sadly is too common today even for a young  Christian wife to be seduced, to rebel against home life as her primary  ministry,  for the false  romance, a career, an equitable marriage  and anything  else that rather tends to lead to vanity and bitterness.  

.

If you  continue to willfully, continually disobey  your husband “you are indirectly rebelling against God shaking your fist at God.  You even have no faith in the will of God being attained for your life nor will  it be.. the best you can hope for or expect next thus  is the painful  divorce.. 

Instead of falsely dwelling on what you think you  do deserve, you should be thinking that you are here  to serve the Lord Jesus  Christ graciously, even as to how ever He chooses. Turn from the too often still  wrong thinking about your spouse to the rather right thinking about God and your  responsibility to honor and worship Him even in your home, marriage,  family.

.

Titus 2: 1    But speak thou the things which  become sound doctrine:2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in  faith, in charity, in patience.3 The aged women likewise, that they be in  behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine,  teachers of good things;4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to  love their husbands, to love their children,5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at  home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not  blasphemed.6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.7 In all things  shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness,  gravity, sincerity,8 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of  the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.9 Exhort  servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all  things; not answering again;10 Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity;  that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.11 For the  grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,12 Teaching us  that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly,  righteously, and godly, in this present world;13 Looking for that blessed hope,  and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;14 Who  gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto  himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.15 These things speak, and  exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.

Now “Though feminism speaks of liberation,  self-fulfillment, personal rights, and breaking down barriers, these phrases  inevitably mean the opposite.  In  fact, the opposite is true because a salaried job and titled position can  inhibit a woman’s natural nesting instinct and maternity by inverting her  priorities so that failures almost inevitably come in the rearing of her own  children and the building of an earthly shelter for those whom she loves most.  The mundane accompanies every task, however high paying or prestigious the job,  so that escape from boredom is not inevitable just because your workplace is not  at home. And where is the time for personal creativity when you are in essence  working two jobs-one at home and one away?”  Jesus own  words are very  applicable and to the point here too.. Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited,  if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man  give in exchange for his soul?

Perseverance is needed in marriage if we are to  please God’s will for our life, our full happiness and fulfillment. . The  present trend in the world at large is  to allow any difficulties, objections to  become the cause for separation and divorce is very lamentable as in Malachi  2:16 we find these words: ‘I hate divorce’.

.

“Wives, be  submissive to your own husbands so that even if some husbands are disobedient to  the word, they may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives, as they  observe your chaste and respectful behavior. Your adornment must not be merely  external—braiding the hair, and wearing gold jewelry, or putting on dresses; but  let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a  gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of  God.”^[ (1 Peter 3:1-4)

.

Sadly still “ Too many women rush headlong into a  career outside the home, determined to waste no time or effort on housework or  baby-sitting but rather seeking to achieve position and means by directing all  talents and energies toward non-home professional pursuits. It is true that many  “perfect jobs” may come and go during the childrearing years, but only one will  absolutely never come along again-the job of rearing your own children and  allowing them the increasingly rare opportunity to grow up at home.  “ and you  will be shocked how quickly your kids will grow up without you and leave home  for good to be on their own. will not any longer desire you, will have no need  for you too.. And you will be retired and likely all alone next  too..

.

“Homemaking is a career. Keeping the home is God’s  assignment to the wife-even down to changing the sheets, doing the laundry, and  scrubbing the floors. In Titus 2:3-5,  Paul admonishes the older women to teach the younger  women, among other things, “to love their husbands and children, … to be busy at  home” (oikourgous, Greek, literally “home-workers”). The home was once described  as “… a place apart, a walled garden, in which certain virtues too easily  crushed by modern life could be preserved,” and the mother in this home was  described as “The Angel in the House.” A Gallup poll showed that more than eight  out of ten respondents (82 percent) assigned top priority on an eleven-point  scale to the importance of family life. Families, health, and self-respect all  were rated as more important than the possession of material goods.” Some of  these people learned these truths the hard way.. Secular materialism, wealth  does not make one happy still in reality.. As any women, you  also need not look out into the world for your role models but to the God  and  to the Bible alone.. For many it will righfully mean a sacrifice of a career,  that big new house, furnishings, that beautiful new car, and/or those great  vacations. But what a small sacrifice to make for the ability to play an  important role in the making of a happy and a godly home. The rewards will far  exceed anything in this life too that we can imagine. That is why you should  desire to be a good, godly woman, wife, and mother over  all.

“  Homemaking, if pursued with energy, imagination,  and skills, has as much challenge and opportunity, success and failure, growth  and expansion, perks and incentives as any corporation, plus something no other  position offers-working for people you love most and want to please the most!”  It takes real  work, and personal laziness and fantasizing, unrealistic  expectations will lead to serious failure even here.

.

Homemaking is stll the preparing of the meals,   washing the dishes, and the the clothes, vacuuming and cleaning the home ,  decorating the house, grocery shopping too,  getting the kids dressed, insuring  they get to school and do their homework as well.. Sadly too many wives had not  been prepared even  by their parents for this rile and need to learn  some discipline  to do this work as well as it will not get done by  itself.

.

“The New Testament, too, is clear in its emphasis  on a woman’s needed and necessary energy and efficiency in managing her  household ( Titus 2:5, 1 Tim 2:10, 5:24) 

.

When Jesus reprimanded Martha, He did  not condemn the vital housework she was doing; neither did He decry the gracious  hospitality extended to Himself (Jesus did not say only one thing is needful but  pointed to the one thing Martha had omitted). He did admonish her not to be  encumbered or burdened by her work to the exclusion of spiritual sustenance,  which Mary had so faithfully sought  (Luke 10:36-42 )

.

One is never to neglect spiritual preparation-not even for  the joy of serving others. The best way to make homemaking a joyous task is to  offer it as unto the Lord; the only way to avoid the drudgery in such mundane  tasks is to bathe the tasks with prayer and catch a vision of the divine  challenge in making and nurturing a home. Brother Lawrence, a member of the  barefoot Carmelite monks in Paris in the 1600s, set a worthy example: “Lord of  all pots and pans and things … Make me a saint by getting meals and washing up  the plates! … The time of business does not with me differ from the time of  prayer, and in the noise and clatter of my kitchen … I possess God in as great  tranquillity as if I were upon my knees at the blessed sacrament.””

.

For the fools who are falsely seduced away from  their home responsibilities.. Yet God’s warning through the prophet Ezekiel  could not be more timely:  And you took your sons and daughters whom you bore to  me and sacrificed them as food to the idols… . Everyone who quotes proverbs will  quote this proverb about you: “Like mother, like daughter.” You are a true  daughter of your mother, who despised her husband and her children; and you are  a true sister of your sisters, who despised their husbands and their children.  (Ezekiel 16:20, 44-45).

.

 God gave us life, he gave us dominion over the earth and fellowship with him  forever. But, in the wink of an eye, Adam and Eve chose to disobey a single  command, essentially betraying the trust that God had placed into humanity.  

.

Now we all  need to repent of our personal betrayal against God. We must first  seek God with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength and his will and plan  for out life, not rather our own. 

.

Luke 21:16, “And ye shall be betrayed both by  parents, and brethren, and kinfolk, and friends; and some of you shall they  cause to be put to death.

.

People who place money and material items before  God must pay close attention to the story of Apostle  Judas.

.

Note that the unacceptable sin of idolatry and  the sin of adultery are related in God’s eyes.. the lust for material things and next sexual lust are al a part of the false lust of our  flesh.. which needs to be subdued.

.

Eze 6:8-9 (NIV) “…How I have been grieved by their adulterous hearts, which have turned away from me, and by their eyes, which have lusted after their idols. They will loathe themselves for the evil they have done and for all their detestable practices.”

.

James 4:3-4 (Phi) You don’t get what you want because you don’t ask God for it. And when you do ask he doesn’t give it to you, for you ask in quite the wrong spirit–you only want to satisfy your own desires. You are like unfaithful wives, never realizing that to be the world’s lover means becoming the enemy of God! Anyone who chooses to be the world’s friend is thereby making himself God’s enemy

.

Col 3:5-6 (Jer) That is why you must kill everything in you that belongs only to earthly life: fornication, impurity, guilty passion, evil desires and especially greed, which is the same thing as worshipping a false god. All this sort of behavior makes God angry. (Eph 5:5)

.

Ex 20:3-4 (NIV) “You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.”

.

Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness … (KJV)

.

Ephesians 5:3–5 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. (KJV)

.

1 Corinthians 6:9–10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. (KJV)

.

Ezekiel 16:35-42, “Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord. Thus saith the Lord God; Because thy filthiness was poured out and thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give unto them; Behold, therefore Iwill gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I wil1 even gather them round about against thee, and will discover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness. And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I wil1 give thee blood in fury and jealousy. And I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high places: they shall shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, and leave thee naked and bare. They shall bring up a company against thee, and shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords. And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou shalt give no hire anymore. So I  will make my fury toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.”

.

What if God asked you to give up all of your  belongings and money in order to become a true disciple of Jesus? How would you  respond? (see Mark 10:17-31).;

.

Proverbs 15:16 Better is little with the fear of  the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith. 17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than  a stalled ox and hatred therewith.

.

Proverbs 16:8 Better is a little with righteousness  than great revenues without right.

16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold!  and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!

.

Proverbs 17:1 Better is a dry morsel, and quietness  therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife.

.

Proverbs 19:1 Better is the poor that walketh in  his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.

.

Proverbs 27:10 Thine own friend, and thy father’s  friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy  calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far  off.

.

Proverbs 28:6 Better is the poor that walketh in  his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be  rich.

.

Ecclesiastes 7:8 Better is the end of a thing than  the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in  spirit.

.

Song of Solomon 4:10 How fair is thy love, my  sister, my spouse! how much better is thy love than wine! and the smell of thine ointments than all spices!

“Some women even claim to have a higher focus on  serving God-putting the spread of gospel ahead of  the “family” While no one and  nothing must come between a woman and her personal relationship to Christ (“But  seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given  to you as well,” Matthew 6:33), neither does the Bible contain any admonition to place the work of  the church ahead of her home responsibilities. When a woman has chosen the high  calling of being a wife, her submission to her husband is “as to the Lord”  (Ephesians 5:22). When she chooses the high calling of motherhood, “Sons are  a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him” (Psalm 127:3); this, too, is itself an offering to the Lord.” Also “ Teach them  [God’s words] to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when  you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up… so that your  days and the days of your children may be many in the land that the Lord swore  to give your forefathers, as many as the days that the heavens are above the  earth. (Deuteronomy 11:19, 21)”
.

Also still “ The wife was created by God to be her  husband’s “helper” (ezer kenegdo, Hebrew, literally “a help like or  corresponding to himself,” Genesis 2:18). There  is nothing demeaning about being a helper. It is a challenging and rewarding  responsibility. God Himself assumed that role on many occasions (Psalm 40:17, “You  are my help and my deliverer; O my God, do not delay”; Hebrews 13:6, “So we  say with confidence, ‘The Lord is my helper’”). This did not mean that the Lord  was an inferior but spoke rather of His desire to meet the needs of those whom  He loves with an everlasting and unconditional love. Through the ages some have  held that women are inferior to men, but the attempt to attribute such an idea  to Scripture is unthinkable.  “ They have been falsely seduced by the devil into  a false pride of who they really are and what role they need to play. Accept him  as a spiritual leader. Pray for your husband; Do not try to change him leave  that to God to do it. Accept his relationship with his mom and do not be jealous  of it, try to destroy it or compete with it..

.

Genesis 2:24-25: Therefore a man shall leave his  father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one  flesh. And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.  

.

1 Corinthians 7:3-5:The husband should give to his  wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife  does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the  husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not  deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you  may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may  not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

.

It is also not the sex that still makes a marriage  work, successful but your hard work and your love ..

.

“  When a godly wife is all she ought to be, she  completes, complements, and extends her husband. Their joint ministry reaches  beyond what either of them could do alone (Psalm 34:3;  Ecclesiastes 4:9-12).” otherwise their marriage will become a real hell.. There still is  great personal happiness, fulfillment, joy in a really happy, successful  marriage and a really  great sorrow, pain in a failed one too.

.

Mark 4:19 And the cares of this world, and the  deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the  word, and it becometh unfruitful.

.

1 Timothy 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into  temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men  in destruction and perdition.

.

Romans 6: 12 Let not sin therefore reign in your  mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

Demons have been here since the  beginning of human history.  The same demons that infiltrated the antediluvian  civilization in the days of Noah are alive and active today.  They have  infiltrated every area of life from childhood to adulthood, from play to  marriage, from sports to work.  They EVEN DO falsely seek to destroy Marriage  Culture.

.

 In 1  Corinthians 6 and 7, Paul reprimanded the Church, the Christian  strongly for  their marital infidelity. 1 cor 6:1 9 Know ye not that the  unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither  fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of  themselves with mankind,10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor  revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.11 And such were  some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in  the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 12    All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not  expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the  power of any.13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall  destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord;  and the Lord for the body.14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also  raise up us by his own power.15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of  Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an  harlot? God forbid.16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is  one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.17 But he that is joined unto  the Lord is one spirit.18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is  without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own  body.19 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.

.

Romans 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to  uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies  between themselves:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural  use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working  that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their  error which was meet.

.

Romans 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ,  and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
.

1 Corinthians 10:6 Now these things were our  examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also  lusted.

.

Galatians 5:16 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.

24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the  flesh with the affections and lusts.

.

But there were also false prophets among the  people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring  in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on  themselves swift destruction.  And many will follow their destructive ways,  because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will  exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been  idle, and their destruction does not slumber.  For if God did not spare the  angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of  darkness, to be reserved for judgment;  and did not spare the ancient world, but  saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the  flood on the world of the ungodly;  and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah  into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who  afterward would live ungodly;  and delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by  the filthy conduct of the wicked  (for that righteous man, dwelling among them,  tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless  deeds)-  then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to  reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment, 2 Peter  2:1-9

.
But I want to remind you, though you  once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt,  afterward destroyed those who did not believe. Jude  1:5

.

But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under  the law.  Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery,  fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,  idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions,  jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,  envy,  murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand,  just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will  not inherit the kingdom of God.  But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy,  peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,  self-control. Against such there is no law.  And those who are Christ’s have  crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.  If we live in the Spirit,  let us also walk in the Spirit. Galatians 5:18-25

.

And there followed another angel, saying, Fallen, fallen is  Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink of the wine of the passion of  her fornication. (Revelation 14:8)

.

and upon her forehead a name was  written, a mystery, “BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF WHORES AND OF THE  ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.”  (Revelation 17:5)

.

PS  Have also your own support system. Not with the  devil and his cohorts, or your worldly bad friends but with God – Jesus Christ   himself.. There talk to him, share your insights and concerns with Him and also  do  listen to his response as well!

If we follow after God we will be filled with the Holy Spirit

 Hell  was meant for the devil and his angels but man chose to go there, because he has a free will, cause he does not serve God fully, because he has his own false religion , cause he seeks the praise of mere men over God now too… The devil is a liar and so are his followers, even if they both now can quote the Bible as well and say they are telling the truth.. All liars still go to hell. Christian or not..

.

Titus 1:12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.

 .

Titus 1::1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;3 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;4 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;9 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

 .

Revelation 2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name’s sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.:

 .

Revelation 218 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

 .

man sends himself to hell even the  unrepented Christian liars too

1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.19 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.

IT IS ONE OF THE GREATEST LIES OF THE DEVIL, MYTHS THAT ONE CAN BE A CHRISTIAN OR THAT SELF RIGHTEOUSNESS, EVEN HOLINESS CAN BE ACHIEVED WITHOUT THE FILLING OF  THE HOLY SPIRIT 

.

Acts 8:14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: 15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

.

as a result of the anointing of   the Holy Spirit ( Acts 10:38) and you will reflect, be more and more conformed to the image of Christ (Romans 12:2; 2 Corinthians 3:18). Your prayer life and study of God’s Word will become more meaningful. You will experience His power in witnessing (Acts 1:8). You will be prepared for spiritual conflict against the world (1 John 2:15-17); against the flesh (Galatians 5:16-17); and against Satan (1 Peter 5:7-9; Ephesians 6:10-13). You will experience His power to resist temptation and sin (1 Corinthians 10:13; Philippians 4:13; Ephesians 1:19-23; 2 Timothy 1:7; Romans 6:1-16).

.

Acts 10:38 38 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.

.

Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

.

The Holy Christian life is personally… impossible, it is impossible without the Holy Spirit –on our own. Trying to live the Christian life by your own efforts is like a ship trying to sail on dry land…

Ephesians 5: 1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; 2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. 3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; 4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them. 8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) 10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. 13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. 15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, 16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. 18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; 19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; 20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; 21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. 22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

.

 1 John 3:12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.

.

 Jude 1:11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

.

 One of the biggest tragedy of Christianity is that many professing Christians are falsely trying to make themselves look good, better over others by doing their own thing, earning their way to heaven in the same way that Cain had falsely refused to do what God had told him..

.

 As a real Christian you are Holy Spirit filled Christian and taught lead by the Holy Spirit or you are a carnal Christian or an unchristian, a natural man and thus you do still hold mostly false Biblical insights. and it will clearly show as to who you are by what you believe in, but what you say and also but also with whom you do associate with..

.

 There are not a multiple optional possibility of beliefs or of truths in God Kingdoms You are Holy Spirit filled or are led by the devil.. as simple as that

.

 Carnal Christians are so close to being unbelievers that they are almost indistinguishable from them. Likely will go to hell with them next too. Such Christians are characterized by apathy, division, ongoing strife and a very low EQ! Carnal Christians “bite and devour one another” (Galatians 5:15)

.

“And I brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to carnal men, as to babes in Christ. I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able, for you are still carnal. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshy, and are you not walking like mere men?”

.

It is the Holy Spirit who renews, transforms, redeems our perceptions, beliefs, emotions, and physical bodies and who gives us the wisdom, discernments, insights. as “I have been crucified with Christ: and I myself no longer live, but Christ lives in me. And the real life I now have within this body is a result of my trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20).

.

 1 Thessalonians 4:

 1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.

 2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

 3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:

 4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;

 5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:

 6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.

 7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.

 8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.

 9 But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

.

Why aren’t more Christians filled with the Spirit? Simply because of their unsubmitted, unconfessed sin. We thus do still choose to disobey God. This can take the form of pride: doing and wanting things our way. Living a self centered life, and We don’t give God control of our finances; we’ve worked hard for our money and it’s ours now. We don’t give God control of our relationships, associates, choices too;. We don’t give God control of our personal morality; that’s nobody’s business but our own—not even God’s.

.

(Proverbs 3:34). [God] mocks proud mockers but gives grace to the humble”

.

Proverbs 29: 23 A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not. 25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe. 26 Many seek the ruler’s favour; but every man’s judgment cometh from the LORD. 27 An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked. Or the “Fear of man will prove to be our snare…”

.

(Proverbs 29:25). Is there something that God wants you to do, but you haven’t done it because you’re afraid of what people will think?

.

 Generally non-believers, non Christians are clearly still totally ignorant the work of the Holy Spirit.

.

 (1 Corinthians 3:1-3). “A natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised” (1 Corinthians 2:14). But “He who is spiritual appraises all things…We have the mind of Christ” (1 Corinthians 2:15).

.

To be Baptized with the Holy Spirit first you must be a true Christian, a true follower of Jesus Christ

.

“Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen: Thus saith the Lord that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, (the upright one) whom I have chosen. For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring: And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.” (Isa. 44:1-4)

(Psa 37:9 KJV) For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.

(Psa 37:10 KJV) For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.

(Psa 37:11 KJV) But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

.

BEING RELGIOUS AND/OR KNOWING THE BIBLE IS NOT THE SAME AS KNOWING PERSONALY GOD, JESUS CHRIST, THE HOLY SPIRIT.. GOD, JESUS CHRIST, THE HOLY SPIRIT, they all do love you and they had created you to know them personally-here was a basic, truthful fact – you must know, remember and share with others too. God the father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit are all alive, real, individuals who care about yo…u personaly too and desire now to fellowship with you too if you do now meet their requirements, conditions as stated in the New Testament. Or are you falsely still relying in your own flesh in following Jesus Christ, God, the Holy Spirit? … Did you know that the Bible teaches us that human nature will always deny Jesus Christ. We all first must come personally to Jesus Christ in order to receive the baptism of Holy Spirit as well.. Now without the Holy Spirit of Jesus in your life, heart, you can only know, experience, darkness, demons and not God. Our boldness comes from being with Jesus, the Holy Spirit and our knowledge, application of God’s word. We can’t change one thing about ourselves or others without the SPIRIT of GOD.

.

(Luke 4:1 KJV) And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,

.

(Rom 8:14 KJV) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

.

GOD is still looking for the caring, loving spirit filled people who have made the LORD JESUS CHRIST only and not others as their Hope and Confidence. GOD now wants to get down to the heart of things and make you as Free as you can be, so you can just fully enjoy being His Child. Lift up your head for the Kingdom of God will come upon you too, if you seek Him, and you will next see more of God’s SPIRIT on display than ever before. You will also personally Rejoice in what God’s promised for His Church, and you will with joy also now know that you’re on your way up being lifted up in Him too.

.

GOD still does have something bigger for each one of us he has planned for us more than we have even imagined. He by his Holy Spirit is fueling and leading us the whole way. GOD is decking us out with His Garments, garments of holiness, power, and praise included, and He is also calling us to personally move into His own places of Authority here on earth. This Hand of GOD is lifting us up and givi…ng us the Passion that also His SON had, has. This Anointed Holy Spirit Hand of GOD is also bringing his Favor and releasing us to His Kingdom best. GOD now still wants to be every bit a living part of our lives as we daily do His. GOD can show us more as to what it takes to know Him on a one on one basis, to know him more, and to make His Name Great in the earth. With God’s supplied Power and Passion in the Holy Spirit we can turn around many things for His glory, and we will be right in the center where GOD wants us all the time to be, and not only to receive but to pour out as well. Yes it is really true that GOD wants to fill your cup with his Holy Spirit and to make you also an important somebody in His Kingdom filled with praise, love, humbleness and power too.

.

Any genuine revival of the Holy Spirit is a personal one firstly.. it is to affects us personally first. Then we can share it with those around us and those abroad. The HOLY GHOST brings our personal Restoration to God, He can bring it to the whole Church as well and get It up into God’s Will. He will also take those persons going through trials and prepare them for a personal, individual Ministry, for He Enables those who have now been Called, and he can get us all working in His Order, and Fills us with Joy and Settle us individually and solidly in JESUS. The Holy Spirit Anointing Calls us into our own ministry, service and he Challenges us to give up our life as we know it, it as more than going from childhood into adulthood, for it Announces God’s Favor, Increases our Awareness of the Spirit’s Work, Bridges gaps between God and man and ir makes many things right, and as well he gives us More of JESUS. We thus will be are Refreshed in His Presence, we will feel more Strongly about the Things of GOD, God’s Will will be made clearer to us, and our useless, old worries are Removed

.

In Christ by His Holy Spirit we have a New enabled Mission, Ministry, Service for we not only take on a New Nature, but we are being continually Led, Fed by Him as well

.

The Outpouring of the HOLY SPIRIT while it often is still unpredictable, it is always in His time, and it is the beginning and also summation of our Faith in the Hand of the LORD to take his own direct actions here on earth, it is God’s Person on Display, it also is something New everyday, and it can make everybody who receives it Happy, in the World To Come in the here and now too… with even abundant Joy.

.

Seek Him, find him, take hold of Him, and above all keep him at all costs.. and all available now to us freely through Jesus Christ, to him be all the glory, the majesty always.

.

GOD wants to set you apart. He wants you to have His Passion for everything. GOD is on the move in the earth today and He needs, uses the people full of His HOLY SPIRIT. So do Take a deep breath and breathe in the Presence of the Almighty… by His outpouring of His Holy Spirit.. We have to develop a deeper thirst for HIM as well so we can personally see experience, more of this Glory. We also have to die to self, renounce self, our own lives of this to happen as well.

.

We all do still have to by Faith personally accept everything God has promised, had given us and by faith to fully walk in His Kingdom Authority, and we have to keep ourselves built up in the faith, in the power of the Holy Spirit, in the life of the Lord Jesus Christ, to keep on going after GOD. It is a really sad fact that too many professing Christians who claim they love God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, in reality they are still not filled with the Holy Spirit even cause they have rejected the fullness of the Holy Spirit, and his gifts being applicable today, they now falsely have limited the Gospel as being Jesus the Savior only and they wrongfully do not teach the full Gospel of Jesus the Christ now as well….  and they falsely emphasize falsely even keeping all of the old Testament commandments of God, basically in one’s own strenght, and the necessary usage of Greek and heeding to the teaching of mere men, such as Darby, Scofield, over the Holy Spirit teaching us directly.. and those amongst them who do this they all basically do not have the Holy Spirit, are actually deceived, are now none of His.. They thus really are still unsaved thus.

.

If we follow after God we will be filled with the Holy Spirit and continually live by the Holy Spirit doing all things by the Spirit and not at all by the flesh. . Eph 5:18 And be not drunk with wine wherein is excess but be filled with the Holy Spirit…
