Lord Open Ours Eyes:
A Look At the Spirit of Jezebel
There is a Jezebel Spirit that is sweeping through the church and our community. We as believers need the Lord to open our eyes so that we are not deceived and led astray. Rev. 2:20-Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
The spirit of Jezebel is a spirit of control, rebellion, witchcraft and manipulation. It can operate through a man or woman. The person with a Jezebel Spirit will have a very strong personality and will try to manipulate those who are humble, meek, and mild. Most often the manipulation is very delicate emotional manipulation; they play on your weakness. This spirit is one of the most widespread in operation today, both in the church and in the world, and it is a great opponent of the body of Christ. The person with a Jezebel Spirit has the follow goals to gain identity, glory, recognition, power, and the "praises of men". The "Jezebel spirit" is in a constant agitation, intolerably antagonistic, very firm, callous, controlling, self-seeking, power-hungry, manipulative, unrepentant, self- righteous, deceiving spirit, cunning and evil spirit. In women she appears in two different forms. She may be prestigious, outgoing, outspoken and impressive. She is very domineering and wears the pants in her house. The second form that she takes is a little more subdued soft-spoken, giving the false impression of being concerned, motherly, protective, and even submissive. The spirit that manifest in this manner may be the most dangerous, because it is more difficult to discern. This spirit is very reliant on a spirit of manipulation to gain power and deceive people. Some characteristics of a person with a Jezebel spirit are:

From The Pastor's Desk
Its time to get back on track with God 2 Kings 23:3 - And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before the Lord, to walk after the Lord, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all their heart and all their soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant. Many believers today often get side tracked by things like, financial difficulties, unexpected sickness and family issues. Even in the mist of having these struggles for months or maybe even be years, we must all come to the realization that it is time to get back on track with the Lord. It does not take a great trial or an over whelming situation to get off track. Just as God delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of Pharaoh, God will do the same for us once we make up in our heart and mind that we are ready to get back on track. Josiah was a rather obscure king of Judah during the last few decades before the people of Israel were taken into captivity in Babylonia. He's worth remembering, because he got Judah (temporarily, at least) back on track with God. The people had been ignoring the Lord for generations. The two kings before him, his father and grandfather, led the people in worshipping idols. Things had gotten so bad that one day the chief priest stumbled across a copy of the Holy Scriptures in the temple, and he didn't even know what it was! But he read it, and the book was brought and read before the king. "And when the king heard the words of the Book of the Law...he tore his clothes." -- II Kings 22:11. Josiah was upset! If what the words in this book said were true, then his people had gone way off the track! "So the king sent them to gather all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem to him." Josiah didn't waste any time - he saw that a major reform was needed. Somehow, he had to get back on track with God, and the time to do it was immediately - RIGHT NOW! Let’s bring this home to ourselves, and just be honest about it. Failures and mistakes are neither easy nor comfortable to admit and face sometimes, but by the same token it is the first step towards getting back on track for God said in 1 John 1:9 -If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. There is no time to waste on looking back over what we should have done, but the time to get back on track is right now, because in Ephes. 5:15-17 it said -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.Be encouraged and remember that sin will keep us sidetracked, but repentance will put us back on track. In the Master's Service, Pastor Jerome Elliott Soul FoodA journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Confucius Life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. - John Maxwell
I believe in the Sun, Even when it's not shining. I believe in Love, Even when I feel it not. Our eyes are placed in front because it is more important to look ahead than look back. We are limited, not by our abilities, but by our vision. Every morning you are handed 24 golden hours. They are one of the few things in this world that you get free of charge. If you had all the money in the world, you couldn't buy an extra hour. What will you do with this priceless treasure? If you think that praise is due, Now's the time to show it, 'cause a man can't read his tombstone when he's dead. The Winner always has a plan; The Loser always has an excuse. Always give without remembering…always receive without forgetting. Men of genius are admired. Men of wealth are envied. Men of power are feared. But only men of character are trusted Hard things are put in our way, not to stop us, but to call out our courage and strength. If a thing is right, it can be done; if wrong, it can be done without. Anything worth doing is worth doing well. The best way to love is to love like you have never been hurt. When everything seems like an uphill struggle, just think of the view from the top" Counterhits |
