SAME TRICKS

 

But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

Revelation 2:14


One of the greatest agenda of the enemy against a right standing believer, is to try to lure them away from their arena of protection and provision so he can afflict them. But as long as they'd (believer) remain faithful to the things of God, the enemy knows they're out of his reach. 


Matthew 13:25 says, 

"But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way." 


This is how it works, Balaam knew that the Israelite couldn't be cursed in their righteous state, but because his eyes was fixed on the reward promised him by Balac. He taught Balac ways to go around it. 

He told Balac that the only way he could overpower the Israelite is if God withdraw from their midst. And for that happen they have to smear themselves by engaging in immoral vises such as worshipping of idols, fornication, stealing etc., things that goes crosswise to the commandments of God; that's outright disobedient to God. 


So, Balac pretended to be friends with the Israelite, with ulterior motive to ensnare them (Israelite), hence cunningly introduced them to all manner of ungodly lifestyle, which drove away the presence of God from their midst; as a result they were afflicted and defeated in many instances, won is some cases when they repented. But their ungodly lifestyle couldn't be completely eradicated from amongst them anymore its become a stumblingblock between them and God in many ways. 


It is the same trick today, it hasn't change. Most of the addictions people struggle with today, were sown in those moments of vulnerability by those pretending to be friends, but influenced by a demonic force. Be it a nation or an individual. 


I pray that God open your eyes to see the unfriendly friends around you, and the root cause of the challenges in your life today, and the grace to apply God's instruction for your triumphant living in Christ Jesus, receive it today, in Jesus name! God bless you! 


Jesus is Lord!

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

Money truce.

People make reference that "The Bible says money is the root of all  evil...." The Bible didn't say that at all. The Bible says, "For the LOVE of MONEY is the root of all evil" (1Tim.6:10). You could be guilty of that sin and not have a dime. It's not wrong to have money; it's wrong for money to have you. #prosperityreality

Extremely Blessed!

A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. – Proverbs 17:8 If I could give you a gift this Christmas, the Word is what I'd give you. I'd rather give it to you than a check for a million dollars. Because you can run through a million dollars real quick, but the truth of God's Word never quits—and it will get you out of situations a million dollars can't get you out of. Ken and I are just ordinary people. But when we latched on to God's Word, we latched on to something out of the ordinary, something that changed our lives. Every area of our lives. Nothing that's happened to us has happened because of us. It's happened because of God's Word. In fact, I don't even have to know you to promise you this: If you'll give God's Word your full attention—and not be afraid of His will for your life—you're going to be happier and more prosperous than anything you could ever dream up. O...
