Loved one in Christ
Jesus, I believe you are growing in the strength of the Lord. For some weeks, I
have not been active in writing and publishing on my blog. A lot of battles are
going on in the spiritual realm.
Remember me in your
prayers because the enemy is waging a great war against the church in these last
days, but with Christ Jesus on our side, we are victorious. Glory to God! The
Holy Spirit has been revealing some visions to me to enable me to take
responsibility.
Child of God, never neglect
the reality of spiritual warfare because it is always taking place. Whether you
believe in the spirit's activities or not, it doesn’t cancel the operations of
this invisible world.
One secret I have
observed about the devil and his cohorts is that they consistently attack when
they suspect the plans of God for our lives have a greater impact (destruction)
on their kingdom. Child of God, don’t be discouraged in your spiritual life
when you encounter a series of spiritual attacks because you carry great
assignments in the spiritual realm.
Those who don’t have a
consciousness of spiritual attack are not born again. Such people are automatic
prisoners in the enemy’s kingdom. Another reason people don’t have a
consciousness of spiritual attack is that they are dead and blind in the Spirit.
Some people are
operating in some spiritual authorities they have not earned. As a result of
that, they are always confused and full of insecurities in the office they are
operating. One dangerous thing to do in the spiritual realm is to control a territory
God has not given you.
I tried that in the spiritual
realm, and I received heavy attacks in the spiritual realm. Child of God, never
think the devil and his minions are ignorant of your spiritual authority and
anointing upon your life. Most of the devil’s minions are aware of the
spiritual power and authority you carry.
They can discern the
level of your anointing, mantle, and faith in their secret chambers. I am not
writing this article to exalt the enemy’s power. I know how wicked and unmerciful the devil and
his minions are.
The devil and his
minions hate Christian believers with an unlimited passion because we follow Christ Jesus’ footsteps. The Holy Spirit has allowed me to
experience a series of spiritual warfare, so I know how to navigate some
systems of the spirit.
One thing I have
realized about the devil and his minions is that they can easily discern when
you are weak in the spirit. They can sense if there is an open door in your
life. When these hostile forces discern a loophole in your life, they attack
you aggressively with no iota of mercy.
If I should define the
devil and his cohorts from my spiritual experience, I will define the devil as
an entity that cannot show mercy and always monitors Christian believers'
mistakes. I remember an incident in January 2021 on the Koforidua Technical
University (KTU) school field.
I was praying on the
field in the night. As I was in the mood for prayer, I felt I should bow and
thank the Lord for His mercies and favour upon my life. Most often, some
Christians think a when a believer in Christ Jesus prays for mercies, he or she
is a sinner.
It is baby Christians
that carry such a mindset. Let me continue with some of my encounters on the
KTU school field. While I was on my knees thanking the Lord for His love,
mercies, and favour upon my life, family, and loved ones, I felt I should open
my eyes.
To my surprise, I saw a
heavy dark brownish dog coming towards me to attack me! I counter-attacked the
dog using the name of Jesus with some fear in my heart, and the dog departed
into the bush.
I kept praying on the
school field as the other Christians began leaving the field. Most often, I
loved to be the last man leaving the school field during my evening prayers. As
I kept praying, I saw a blackbird flying behind me.
I could discern in the
spirit that it was an act of witchcraft combined with sorcery to attack me. I
rebuked the evil bird in the name of Jesus and with some spiritual
weapons. It flew away from the prayer
ground, and from that hour, I had some sense of inner peace in my heart on the
prayer field.
After the prayers, I
went home to rest. In my dream (middle of the night), I encountered strange
beasts. As Apostle Paul wrote in his letters to the church in Corinth that he
fought with the beast of Ephesus. I saw two lions fighting like human beings!
I protest by your
rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our LORD, I die daily.
If after the manner of
men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus,
what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to
morrow we die.
1
Corinthians 15:31-32 KJV
In my dream, the two
lions stood on their two legs like human beings! They were boxing with their
two front legs, like how human boxers fight in the boxing ring. Later I
understood that I was trying to take over a territory in the spirit; the Lord
has not commanded me to take over.
I can also interpret
the dream in two ways. It is either; the lions represent the Heavenly Father or
the devil. I know how lions fight in real life because I have watched several wildlife
videos. The lions I saw in my dream were not fighting like the lions I saw in
the wildlife documentary videos. These lions were fighting fiercely like human
beings in the spirit.
This means the lions
may represent Kings or princes fighting over territories. One important spiritual law you must know in
spiritual warfare is that you don’t enter into warfare if you are not born
again. Being born again means you have repented and confessed Christ Jesus as
your Savior and Lord of your life.
Without the seal of Christ
Jesus blood on your spiritual garment, you are not qualified to face the devil in
battle. The devil and his minions know a man or a woman who is born again.
There are a lot of identifying marks the devil and his minions recognizes on a genuinely
Spirit-filled Christian.
When I talk of a Spirit-filled
Christian, I mean Christians who allow the fruits of the Holy Spirit to flow in
their lives. It is not carnal Christians who only dress to show others how
fashionable they are.
If you don’t have any
relationship with the Holy Spirit, some demons will not respond to your command
because they see you as an empty vessel in the spiritual realm. Your words will
not carry any spiritual power if you are a carnal and nominal Christian.
This is one reason some
people mention the name of Jesus in spiritual warfare, and yet nothing happens.
Such Christians have no fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Don’t repeat the
mistake the visionless Jews and the sons of the Ephesus chief priest made. The
evil spirits could discern their spiritual state.
Then certain of the
vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil
spirits the name of the LORD Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul
preacheth.
And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew,
and chief of the priests, which did so.
And the evil spirit
answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
And the man in whom the
evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them,
so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Acts
19:13-16 KJV
The evil spirits
declared they know Paul and Jesus. The evil spirits did not have any records on
their spiritual power in these people's lives, so they attacked these ignorant
and blind vessels with insanity.
Even in the kingdom of
darkness, before an agent of the devil attacks the opponent, he checks the
spiritual level of the opponent. If these demonic forces detect that you are
weak, they attack. Surround yourself with God’s presence (Holy Spirit). If you are not born again, pray the
prayer of salvation below because, without the garment of Jesus Christ, you are
always open to the attacks of the devil and his cohorts.
