The Truth Will Set You Free

Saturday, September 4th, 2010

John 8:32, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:1-6

Jesus promises us that the truth will set us free.  It happens.  Freedom comes to those who walk in truth.  You cannot serve two masters.  Follow the Lord in the land of the living.  Serve Him with gladness.  Tell the truth & walk with the truth for your very life everlasting depends upon this.

The enemy of God has lied to you making you think it’s okay to tell lies.  It is not okay to tell lies.  If you follow God wholeheartedly then you will tell the truth and keep telling the truth.  The truth is what will set you free from the lies of the enemy.

I sang a little song last night that I clung to months ago.  I sang, “O Lord, please set us free from the tricks on the enemy.”  One of the major schemes the enemy uses is the spirit of lies.  satan lied to Eve in the garden.  That lie is what started the fall of man. 

The spirit of lies has also moved through prophets of old.  In the book of Jeremiah you can read about the false prophets and the true prophets of God.  The true prophets were the ones that told the truth even if it didn’t please people when they heard the truth.  The false prophets just said things they knew people wanted to  hear. 

There is a warning against the false prophets in the book of Ezekiel.  God does not want people to speak forth wrong things.  God wants His people to declare words of truth.  Deception does not come from God.

Healing and deliverance will come to those who walk on the straight and narrow path that leads to life.  Those who walk on the good path will turn away from evil.  When you turn away from evil you will quit lying.  I believe there are some people crying out to God for deliverance from evil.  I believe there are some that may have to totally be free of the spirit of lies in order to be set free.  It may be the only way they will ever know peace.  It may be the only way they receive total healing from God. 

Liars will not be in the Holy City.  Revelation 21:8, “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.”

The only hope for these sinners is if they grab hold of the truth turning from evil ways so they can live. 

If you were engaged to a wonderful person and you know that person would be faithful and true to you you wouldn’t want to do anything to ruin that relationship.  You would love them and tell them you loved them.  You would do everything possible to keep them.  If you then married them and the relationship was destroyed because you stopped showing them love and because you started lying to them all the time you would have no one to blame but yourself for losing them.  That is the way it will be for those that don’t turn away from evil before they meet their maker. 

The truth will set you free.  Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life; no man comes to the Father but by Him.  If you want to sincerely walk with God you may follow Jesus.  Being a follower of Jesus means you will be a doer of the Word not a hearer only.  You will be saved by grace because salvation cannot be earned.  You will also walk in truth because you love the truth. 

Those who love the Lord hate evil.  Those who love God hate injustice.  Those who love the Lord hate evil deeds.  Those who love the Lord hate lies.

Take the truth and bind it around your neck so it will protect you.  Take words of truth and let them flow from your mouth.  Determine in your heart that you will abide in God’s Word.  Determine in your heart that nothing will separate you from telling the truth thereby abiding in God’s love. 

If you want peace that passes understanding to be yours at all times walk in the truth.  Speak the truth in love.  Speak the truth at all times.  Do not turn to the right or to the left.  Walk on the straight and narrow path that leads to life.

Who Is On The Throne ?

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Is your body the temple of the Holy Ghost?

He will not share his glory with another.  He said there is to be no other Gods before Him.

If you make you, yourself, & you more important than God then God is not residing inside of you.

In order to put God first you have to empty yourself of you. 

Repentance is needed.  Repent – turn from your evil ways & live. 

God knows who is on the throne of your heart.  He sees everything you do, everything you’ve done, & He knows all about you.

Are you going to let the Spirit of the Living God live inside of you?  His Spirit will give you new life.  You cannot make this happen by your might or your own power.  It can only be done by God’s Spirit.

Rid yourself of all spirits/thoughts/desires that do not come from God.  Rebuke the enemy.  Resist the devil & devilish thoughts. 

Draw near God.  Resist that devil & he will flee.

Repentance is not a fake falling on the floor on your face for a time as if to say this physical action will make it right.  Once you’ve repented turning away from all evil you will know freedom from the demons of the past.

Be warned that if you continue to try to serve two masters the results will be detrimental. 

A double minded man is unstable in his ways.   Chaos and confusion will keep him from having the continual peace and rest God wants him to have.

The Enemy Seeks To Devour

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

The enemy seeks to kill, steal, destroy, to greedily consume anyone he can.

My heart was saddened seeing the lost people in our world.  There are those that don’t know Jesus at all.  There are also the ones that claim to know Him but they don’t really serve Him.  There are those that are following the devil & the are so deceived.

I know of some people that have said they love the Lord but they follow the ways of satan.  They need deliverance from evil.  The enemy has clouded their thinking and kept these souls lost in confusion.  This type of person is tormented by evil spirits.  The demons are having a heyday with those people.  

I think of the song that says, “Cry out to Jesus.”  I think of the words of deliverance found in Psalm 37 & 59.  A person mentioned the need to meditate/read aloud those passages for about a month for they believe if the Words of deliverance provided in those Psalms is read continuously for about that long they feel deliverance will come.

There is so much power in the Word of God.  It is more than we can actually fathom.  For Words to be sharper than a twoedged sword you know they are powerful!

God’s Word also speaks of deliverance from evil.  Draw nigh unto God.  Resist the devil and he will flee.

Drawing near God is more than reading words as if it’s a habit done for brownie points with God. 

God looks at the inside of the vessel.  He sees all that is happening on the inside.  He wants commitment of the best kind.

Notes From Danette Perkins

Saturday, July 31st, 2010
Danette Perkins wrote
what Jezebel hates: Jezebel’s worst enemies are the prophets; her worst fear is that the people will embrace repentance. Jezebel hates repentance. Though this spirit will infiltrate the church, masking its desire for control with true Christian doctrines, it will hide from true repentance. Jezebel hates humility. Jesus taught that greatness in the kingdom 
was  not measured in what we seem to be, but in childlike honesty of heart. A true ministry is willing and eager to be submitted and accountable to other ministries. It is typical of those who are servant minded. Therefore, we must learn tha…t spirituality is measured in meekness, not power. Jezebel hates prayer. Intercessory prayer pries her fingers off the hearts and souls of men. It sets people free in the spirit. when you pray, it binds her. When you pray against immorality, it cripples her. When you pray for a submissive heart, it is like the trampling of Jehu’s horse upon her body. Jezebel hates the prophets, for the prophets speak out against her. The prophets are her worst enemies. When she wars, it is to stir people against the message of the prophetic church. More than she hates the prophets, she hates the word they speak. Her real enemy is the spoken Word of God. Jezebel’s ultimate hatred is against God Himself. She hates the grace God lavishes upon His bondservants even after they sin. she hates the fact that God will take the weakest and lowliest and use them to bring her down. She hates the Holiness and Purity of heart that comes from God and surrounds those who serve in His courts. Let’s pray: Father, we submit to You and Your standard of righteousness. We ask for purity, meekness, and holiness of heart. Forgive us for our tolerance of the spirit of jezebel in both our minds and our deeds. Father, because we submit to You, we have Your authority to resist the devil. We bind, in the name of Jesus, the principality of Jezebel. We pull down the stronghold of its thinking over our community and our state. We come against the fortresses this demon has built up in the spirit realm in this area, and we release the Holy Spirit to plunder the house of Jezebel and distribute her goods. We also speak faithfulness of eyes and heart to husbands and wives. We release purity of heart and grace to each member of the body of Christ, both single and married. We cover Your people with the blood of Jesus. We loose the joy of a humble and submissive spirit and pull down the imaginations of ambition and pride. In Jesus’ Name. Amen! Francis Frangipane–From chapter one of the Jezebel Spirit: Unmasking the Enemies of the Church-series.
I asked Danette —> May I copy paste that on my website? It is perfectly written. I may some of my own thoughts afterwards. To see that the Jezebel spirit hates repentance is something I feel is true of all demonic spirits. Repentance means change. The devil doesn’t want people to repent and change turning away from their evil ways.  
Danette let me know that what she wrote is for  everyone so & that I should please feel welcome to copy and paste anything. This is really good stuff and it needs to be spread around and shared. Amen.
I give a hearty AMEN to what she wrote.  I agree that people in the body of Christ need to know this stuff.

When Pigs Move in By Dickerman Don

 

I heard about this book & hope to get it someday before long.

 

I have had a bit of time to read some of the ONLINE MESSAGES ON DELIVERANCE shown on the dondickerman.net website.  There is a lot of good information there.  I will encouage others to read through that set of messages posted online.  I thought it may be a very good thing to read prior to getting the books or dvds offered on Don’s website. 

 

 

http://www.dondickerman.net/id59.html

 

Christians,  Remember God’s Word says you will be known by the fruit you show.  You will not be able to let JESUS light shine through you very well if you are not delivered of evil ways &/or teachings. 

God’s Holy Word speaks of this deliverance.  Let’s put aside the things that so easily entangle us.  Let us run with perseverance serving God with joy and gladness. 

DON’T JUST TALK THE TALK MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY & PREPARED TO WALK THE WALK!!!!

 

 

 

God Came To Set The Captives Free

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

Our pastor is believing this is the year for captives being set free.

I found an online group that is praying for captives to be set free.

I’m agreeing with them all in prayer & asking God to continue to set captives free.

Doesn’t it sound wonderful?   God is able.  No one can set people free like our God can.

Praise God!! Keep praying and keep believing for good things.

This site has so much information on it that I couldn’t possibly read it all in one day.

I recognized this link that mentions defense mechanisms.

Maybe some Christian pastors and friends can take a look at some of these writings to let me know how they feel about the info listed on this site.

OCD is mentioned on that site, too.

Judas Iscariot The One Who Betrayed Him

Monday, May 17th, 2010

It is interesting to read some things about Judas Iscariot.

  • Judas was chosen to be one of the 12 disciples
  • Judas acted zealous about the things of God – he lived, breathed, walked, talked, ate, and ministered with the disciples & with Jesus (by all appearances it was not clear to everyone that Judas was bent towards evil)
  • Jesus knew who would betray Him
  • God allowed the betrayal to take place [that also makes me ponder on how God allowed Joseph to be sold as a slave by his own brothers]
  • Judas thought he was in control and he didn’t realize he was being controlled by the devil – see Luke 22:3, “3Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.”
  • Judas valued money more than he valued life even the life of JESUS
  • Judas gave the money back but it was used to buy the field of blood that he was buried in
  • A person was chosen to take the place of Judas

There are many things that remind us that there is nothing new under the sun.

Jospeh was betrayed by his own brothers.  Jesus was betrayed by one of his disciples.   God allowed both of those things to take place.  God used all the things that happened to work for good.  God had full control of each circumstance.  Joseph was not allowed to be harmed even though they really did want to kill him.  Jesus was killed but he didn’t stay in the grave.  Joseph was used to save his brothers.  Jesus died on the cross for our sins to save our souls.  In each case what the devil meant for bad God used it all for good.

I believe there must be times when God sort of laughs at the enemy.  The enemy places evil thoughts in the hearts of men and some men listen to the enemy instead of listening to God.  The enemy deceives the deceivers.  The betrayers think they are gaining some form of control when all the while they are just pawns in the hands of the devil. 

It’s not humorous if you are on the receiving end of being betrayed by someone.  It does give a sense of vindication to know that those who betray are themselves being betrayed. When anyone follows satan they will not know lasting joy or peace. 

When Judas listened to the voice of satan he was somehow being tricked into thinking he would find satisfaction from the money he was getting for betraying Jesus.  He did not end up enjoying the money at all.  Judas  must have come face to face with reality shortly after Jesus was taken away.  People have speculated on how he must have felt.  I even heard some people say that it’s possible Judas thought he’d get the money and Jesus would do some kind of miracle and be set free.  All I know is what I’ve read in the Bible.  Judas  had the spirit of satan enter into him and Judas  ran to betray someone that had not done anything to harm him. 

Judas was betrayed by satan.  Judas didn’t get any lasting joy out of his misconduct.  The money he earned got him a graveyard where no one else would dwell. 

That’s what people get when they follow satan.

When I heard Scriptures shared from Acts Chapter 1 at church yesterday it gave me a feeling of satisfaction to know that God also said someone else would take the place of Judas.  If you’ve been betrayed isn’t it good to know that someone else can be sent to take their place?  What  a joyful thought to know God is able to raise up others to fill a spot that was emptied due to disloyalty. 

Judas was bent on evil.  Judas lived a sad life and he was gone.  When God fearing people think of Judas Iscariot surely they must feel sad that he couldn’t or wouldn’t live an honorable life after having spent so much time with our Lord Jesus.  There must also be an amount of gratification that comes on them when they think about how Judas didn’t get lasting joy due to his own greed. 

There are still people like Judas Iscariot on this earth.  There are still those who will do just about anything for money and the things it can buy.  Heed the warnings about things that are to happen during the last days.

Take a look at 2 Tiimothy 3:1-5,

1This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,3Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,4Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;5Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

Proverbs 17:13 says, “13Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.”

Judas  betrayed our Lord and evil did not depart from him. 

It is no wonder that Jesus told us to pray for those that despitefully use us because they need prayer that they can turn from evil and do good.  God is the only one that knows how to help people turn away from their selfish evil ways.
