The unseen world is where it's at

 One of the greatest advantages of a spirit is its ability to be invisible. Unfortunately, because we don't see spirits as we do human beings, for the most part, we fail to believe that they actually do exist.

Having the upper hand in our Christian journey is actually coming to an understanding and grasping the concept that there is an unseen (invisible) world that exists as the parent world to our natural world, better known as the spirit world. The reality is, every fruitful and notable man or woman of God had to have come to the acceptance and reality of the spirit world and at the same time decided to behave according to the revelation of that world to master and subdue the invisible forces of evil in our natural world.

Ministries that saturate and emphasizes the material things of this world. Ignore the fact that this stuff is temporal and at the same time neglect the origin of this material which is of the spirit world. At the same time keeping their followers and members alike ignorant of what the spirit world and more importantly the Christian walk is really all about.

Folks that are frustrated in their Christian journey or unbelievers that are just tired of life are clear examples to me that these folks have yet to tap into or even explore the realities of the unseen world (the spirit world). This is why scripture has repeatedly made statements to the Believers of Jesus Christ such as, "For we walk by faith and not by sight," "Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh," "For the just shall live by faith."

All throughout the scriptures, the laws of God are consistently attempting to encourage mankind to focus on the spirit world because this is ultimately where changes in our natural world will derive from. It really saddens me to observe on a daily basis how folks of the occult have such a stronger understanding of this concept. I have had numerous conversations with folks that practice Voodoo, witchcraft, etc. and how they speak of their commitments to the "spirits" to have things manifest for them that would not have to happen under normal circumstances. I had one person explained to me that while practicing witchcraft they were required to make sure detestable concoctions and actually drink it or visit the cemetery at midnight to perform certain rituals etc. so that the "spirits" would do their bidding.

So, while folks of the occult world are advancing their evil agenda in the earth based on their understanding of the knowledge of that world along with the Christian's ignorance to not resist or challenge them. The Christian churches are basically demanding that their members ignore such things and focus on homes, cars, promotions, etc........ How sad! As a result, it will be up to folks like myself to deprogram the frustrated Christian when the houses and cars and marriage did not pan out for them like their leaders had so strongly advised them on and get them to see and observe things from their origin which is and will always be the spirit world!

Trust me when I say to you that I meet up with many frustrated and tired believers. However, they are a major part of their own problem, in that they insist on being ignorant to the laws of God which govern the spirit world. This is why when I speak and teach about witchcraft, generational curses and the like which tie into the spirit world, folks will either dismiss me or say to me that, that stuff isn't real. Of course, it would be at this point in their conversation that is clearly revealing to me their lack of spiritual knowledge.

The bottom line is this! As a believer in Jesus Christ, you will repeat the cycles of frustration in your Christian journey more often than not simply because you are not being taught of things beyond this world. As a result, the spirit of frustration will maintain your efforts in seeking relief in material things such as a new home, car, promotions marriage, etc., which all have a limited assigned time of fulfillment attached to it. Instead, your focus must be in the spirit world where all things originate before manifesting in our natural world.

Those that focus and react according to what is being revealed from the spirit world will always have the upper hand in the circumstances that surround their lives and by extension the lives of others. Just because their dreams and visions which are spiritual will always be revealing to them the things that are pending in the spirit realm either for their lives or the lives of others. Thus, giving them the opportunity to address it spiritually before its manifestation in the earth physically. The original understanding of the spirit world is the fact that absolutely nothing from the spirit world can be manifested in our world outside of the co-operation and agreement between human beings and spiritual beings. This is so because God in his creation of the earth and the rules, principles, and laws that govern the universe dictates that God gave Human beings and not spirits dominion over the earth. Thus spirits, including the spirit of God engage in covenants and agreements to secure their will in the earth, according to Genesis 1:26,28 & Psalm 8:4-6.

Nevertheless, Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires (material things); but those who live by the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires, Romans 8:5

The reality of the unseen world

It is so unfortunate that the majority of folks will come to the reality of the unseen world only at the point of their death. Of course
at that point, it would be too late for them to recant or dismiss their original beliefs of this world and would have no other choice than to deal with what that world from that point forward dictates to them.

Over the years of studying, researching and teaching on spiritual warfare, I have ascertained that the common denominator that links the Believers of Jesus Christ with being defeated by the forces of darkness is the direct and in direct violation of the principle stated in the following scriptures; Ephesians 6:12, 2 Corinthians 4:18 and 2 Corinthians 10:4 and here is what those scriptures have to say respectively:

“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.”

“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

“The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.”

The underlying tone in the above scriptures are all making reference to reality or a dimension that is not tangible or requires the use of our five senses. Thus, this is where the difficulty arises for those that dismiss the spirit world. Interestingly enough scripture clearly advises us that the natural man cannot understand the things of the Spirit of God. in fact, these things are considered foolishness to him. And as a result of this decision automatically blocks his ability to comprehend such things because they can only be spiritually discerned. This same scripture goes on to say, a spiritual person, can judge all situation. Simply because his judgments and assessments are based on things that are not visible, which he is fully aware of is the bases and origin of all things, 1 Corinthians 2:14-15.

I somehow have come to an understanding as to why one would not be able to comprehend or be quick to accept the reality of the unseen world. I can vividly recall as a young man growing up in the church. I would see member and visitors’ alike running around during the service in convulsions, throwing themselves on the floor, seemingly unable to control themselves, speaking an unintelligible language, etc. It was noted back then as it is in some cases today as being under the Spirit of God or “being in the spirit.” While I would readily agree that they were under a spirit, I’m not sure I would agree it was necessarily the spirit of God. The point that I am attempting to make is simply this. Many have polluted the understanding of the unseen world with physical displays such as what I have mentioned above. However, very little scriptural teachings have been made available to rightly educate the unlearned on what truly is spiritual and the principles and rules that the world is governed by.

We are given a glimpse of this world from the book of Daniel. In Daniel chapter 10, it is initially noted that Daniel was fasting for three weeks or twenty-one days. This is an excellent area to stick a pin in, simply because fasting is one of the protocols or principles of a person engaging in and with the unseen world. Scripture has repeatedly revealed that when the people of God face insurmountable challenges, a fast was necessary. The idea here was to commune, and request solutions from God, whom I might add is a spirit, according to John 4:24. Nevertheless, during this fasting period, Daniel revealed an experience that he had. During this encounter, Daniel said that he was approached by a certain man that was clothed in linen whose waist was girded with a gold sash.

Daniel went on to describe this person’s body as beryl, while his facial appearances like that of lightning and eyes as torches of fire. I am sure we can all conclude here that this could not have been a human being. The reality was, this person was a spirit being whom we know to be an Angel. Now, before we proceed further. We must cement into our understanding that this is a vision that Daniel is experiencing. Persons that can experience such an event are, in fact, observing with their spiritual eyes events from the spiritual world. Daniel could not observe these events with their natural sight. The Angel explained to Daniel that God heard his prayers from the first day of his fast. However, the Angel clearly said that he was delayed in executing God’s message to Daniel because the prince of the kingdom of Persia hindered him. Please note, this prince is not a human being. In fact, physical human strength cannot challenge the power of a spirit being. Additionally, these activities were taking place in the heavens and not on earth. As a reminder, the Angel of God was attempting to reach Daniel, who was located on earth.

This prince of the kingdom of Persia is known as a principality. A principality is a region or a territory in which a prince rules or governs. In other words, this demonic prince was the one responsible for all the wickedness and evil that was manufactured and distributed throughout the kingdom of Persia. Unfortunately, the angelic messenger that was sent to Daniel could not compete with this ruling prince (again these are all spiritual beings). The angel said, "Michael, one of the chief princes of God, came and assisted him by detaining the prince of Persia" so he could continue his mission to Daniel.

Daniel’s story is a perfect example of how vast in power the unseen world is, along with its hierarchy, rules, and principles that it is governed by. More importantly, it is this invisible world that is consistently determining what we experience in our natural world. This is why it is so vital that we understand that the Bible is the word of God. It is also a book of spiritual laws, rules, principles, and protocols of the spirit realm that dictates our natural realm. Therefore if we are ignorant as it relates to the things of the bible, then simultaneously, we are unaware of the existence, operations, and principles of the unseen world.

The bottom line is simply this. The Believers of Jesus Christ will continue to become casualties of spiritual warfare as long as they continue to subscribe to the physical blessings only. Such as car, houses, money, prosperity, teachings, etc. These things are the final product of what has occurred spiritually. If Christians continue in their ignorance of the spirit realm, this act will secure for them poverty, sickness, anti-progress, and the like as their portion in life.
The Apostle Paul repeatedly said in his teachings, “I would not have you ignorant” suggesting that even as a Christian there are many things that you do not know but need to know.

The reality of the spirit realm

Our thoughts are spiritual, our words are spiritual, our imagination is spiritual, and our dreams are certainly spiritual. Why should this matter to us, you may ask?

Well, all of the above mentions are the factors involved as to why things are manifesting the way that they are in our lives. In fact, our words, images, thoughts, and dreams are the means in which we knowingly or unknowingly engage the spirit realm. The spirit realm deals strictly with the conception of what will be birth or released in our physical realm.

Have you ever wondered why we are commanded to walk in the Spirit? Galatians 5:16, reminds us to focus on the spirit. 2 Corinthians 4:18, Reminds us to judge things from the spiritual realm.  John 6:63, assures us that our words are spiritual. Galatians 5:18,  admonishes us to be led by the Spirit. Galatians 5:22, advises us to Concentrate on the fruit of the Spirit. While 1 Corinthians 12 commands us to operate in the gifts of the spirit. And finally, Ephesians 6:12 clearly states that the war that we fight is in the spirit.

Why do you think we are commanded to cast down evil "IMAGINATION" and everything that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bring into captivity every "THOUGHT" to the obedience of Christ, 2 Corinthians 10:5? Simply because all these things have to do with the spirit realm where everything that is manifested in our daily lives has its origin.

I promise you. If folks would understand and believe this principle it will basically force them to change the way that they think, speak meditate, imagine and challenge their negative dreams. The spirit realm, which is inclusive of good and bad is waiting for us to either knowingly or ignorantly engage it so it can manifest what was conceived in the spirit realm.

Make no mistake, your life is the result of what you have been ignorantly or knowingly activating or deactivating in the spirit realm. Thinking evil, imagining evil, speaking evil, dreaming evil will eventually produce the physical results of evil. The opposite is also true.

As for the Christians, living in the spirit does not constitute that you are walking in the spirit. Scripture specifically says to us, "If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk (keep in step) in the Spirit."

THE SPIRIT WORLD IS THE PARENT WORLD TO OUR NATURAL WORLD!

The spirit world is the parent world to our natural world

Things in the natural are dependent on the things of the spirit to exist. Your real fight is and will always be in the spirit world! All things have its origin in the spirit realm and what is manifested physically is as a result of what has been conceived spiritually. My friend, this is the foundation of spiritual warfare!

It is so disappointing that folks of occult practices such as Witchcraft, Voodoo, Black Magic etc. are so much more advance with the understanding of this principle than your average Christian. Unfortunately, the average Christian has been erroneously lead to believe that jerking, running, hopping and hollering makes them spiritual or places them in the spirit. Sadly, their claim to holiness is not drinking, smoking, fornicating engage in adultery etc., while at the same time totally void of spiritual knowledge. My friend, this makes you putty in the hand of the enemy!

My friend I got news for you....... Everything (good and bad) of the past, present and future will always be as a result of the world we cannot see (The spirit realm). In fact we are slaves of that realm because we are either being influenced by Godly beings or Demonic beings, in any event we cannot see them but they are very much present doing their job of influencing us.

I said all of that to say this, fighting your enemies or anyone that's challenging you is a clear sign that, a) You are not aware of the spiritual rules of engagement and b) You certainly don't know who your real enemy is. A sound Christian with an understanding of the spirit realm knows that his focus and attention must not be placed against a person, place or thing. Instead, he challenges and resist the spirits that's influencing that person, place or thing....... This is sound spiritual wisdom!

"Do not become engage with the things that are seen, for the things that are seen are temporal or mere distractions. Instead Focus and pay special attention on the things that are not seen (The spirit realm) for these things are eternal" 2 Corinthians 4:18.

The spirit world is activated by our words and belief

Due to the spirit realm being the parent world to our natural world there are some very import principles that we need to not only be aware of but it must be cemented into our understanding.

The beings of the spirit world (Angels, Demons etc.) are very much limited in their interaction within our natural realm. The reality is simply this, the spirit realm is heavily dependent on our actions and more importantly our words. This is so because the spirit realm cannot manifest what is pending in the spirit realm (good or bad) into our natural realm outside of our agreeing with whatever is pending. Therefore, our belief in whatever we say or do becomes our signature of agreement in the world of the spirit to bring about manifestation. 

This also explains why in the world of witchcraft folks have to follow certain rituals to bring about their evil. The rituals are basically following demonic instruction which is really a form of agreeing with these evil spirits for them to do the bidding of the practitioners. It is the same thing when one speak, obey and do the word of God. In both cases the spirit world is activated via the cooperation of human agents. There can be no earthly manifestation of good or evil without Human and spirit agreement....... THIS IS A SPIRITUAL LAW!

The following scriptures makes this abundantly clear:

"Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven" Matt. 18:18

"God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were" Romans 4:17

"Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee" Job 22:28

"Death and life is in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof" Proverbs 18:21

The above scriptures are proof of the spirit realm eagerly awaiting instructions from us to establish manifestation in our natural realm. To put it another way, Demonic forces are patiently awaiting your negative words and action sealed with your belief of those words and actions to bring about manifestation. On the other hand the Angels of the Lord are also eagerly awaiting the word of God to leave your mouth accompanied with your belief of course to bring about manifestation in the earth, the following scripture is proof of that:

"Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word" Psalm 103:20. Like I have mentioned in my last post things in the natural are dependent on the things of the spirit to exist, however this existence is established by what we say and the belief of what we say.

Job, in Job 4:25, said that the thing he greatly feared came upon him. This is just another example of declaring negative stuff, believing it and therefore it's just a matter of time before it comes to fruition. I am sure Job probably often spoke and declared the things that he feared and as a result his fear was manifested, through his words and belief demonic forces brought about the manifestation.

I will end with this, the consistent declarations of what you believe, be it positive or negative are eagerly waiting to be approved by the spirit realm to bring about manifestation in the natural realm........ My advice! SPEAK LIFE SO THAT YOU AND YOUR SEED MAY LIVE!

Demonic manipulation in and from the spirit realm

The word imitate is defined as mimicking, impersonating, manipulating or copying the image,

behavior or likeness of
something or someone else.

I can vividly recall doing a teaching on "Dreams and their interpretations" when a particular lady asked if I could interpret a dream for her. I agreed, and the woman began telling her story. She said how the Lord is always speaking to her and how she dreams about famous people and these famous people in her dreams basically tell her that the Lord has called her to be a teacher, to evangelize, lead his people and that the Lord told her that she has the gift of prophecy, etc.

Anyway, while she was relaying this dream/story to me, there were red flags popping up in my spirit concerning what she claimed as the Lord speaking to her. I then asked this lady after she was done telling me her dream/story, "How do you know it was the Lord speaking to you?" The Lady paused for a moment and immediately became offended and began to verbally attack me by questioning my teachings on dreams and their interpretation" and who do I think I am to ask her how do I know if it was the Lord speaking to her. Well, her response was a dead give away as to what the Spirit of Truth (The Holy Spirit) was revealing to me at that time, which now brings us to today's teaching.

Many folks erroneously believe that every voice from the spirit realm or should I say any sound that is not accompanied by a body and seem to be spiritual is from the Lord. What folks need to understand is that the spirit realm is filled with many voices. These voices can either be Godly voices, such as God, Jesus, his angels, etc. Likewise One can hear the voice of Satan, his evil spirits, demons, etc. However differentiating these voices without being misled will be solely based on one's relation with God, in particular, their reading and studying the Bible. The Bible is a living book, simply because it's the word of God. God is a spirit, John 4:24 and the words that he speaks is spirit, John 6:63. John 1:1-2,14 says, "In the beginning was the word and the word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was at the beginning with God. And the word was made flesh and dwell among us". Therefore, when we read the Bible whether we understand what we are reading or not, the spirit of God which is the word of God is feeding our spirit. This is likened to when we eat our food, whether we like the food or not whether the food tastes good or not it still provides nutrients to our bodies that result in energy for us to do whatever it is that we need to do.

Nevertheless, because this lady was not feeding her spirit via the word of God and as a result she was easily manipulated and mislead by the spirit realm via demonic forces of course impersonating, mimicking and copying the things of God. There was absolutely nothing to stop their activities but more importantly she was a co-conspirator to her own misleading due to her lack of spiritual knowledge. Trust me when I say to you there are many folks just like this lady who have reduced the Spirit of God to a performance. Such as being slain in the spirit, speaking in demonic tongues, supposedly having "spiritual convulsions" where they apparently have no control over their bodies and the so-called power of God toss them to and fro sometimes exposing their private parts. Question! If God is a God of order then why would he condone such disorderly acts among his people?

Well, let's review a few scripture to cement this spiritual understanding and hopefully this knowledge will make you the reader more of an avid reader of the word of God. In Exodus 7, God specifically said to Moses that he has made him a god before Pharaoh, the word god in this text comes from the Hebrew word Elohim which means a ruler or judge with divine connections. Moses and his brother Aaron was commissioned by God to go and demand that Pharaoh let the children of Israel go. God further said to Moses that when Pharaoh ask for a miracle from him, to prove that the God of Moses sent him, Moses must cast his rod to the ground and the rod that Moses cast to the ground would become a snake, which actually happened.

However, Satan and the powers of darkness loves to copy, mimic and imitate the things of God. Nonetheless, it is all done through demonic manipulation. Scripture records that Pharaoh sent for his wise men and the Sorcerers and the Magicians who also cast their staffs to the ground and through their enchantments caused their staff to become snakes also, Exodus 7:11-12. These same Magicians via their enchantments continued to mimic Moses' miracles in Exodus 7:22 and in Exodus 8:7. Again Pharaoh's Magicians are able to perform such "Miracles" via demonic manipulation. The question is, how would you be able to distinguish the difference if you were placed in a similar position? How many so called Prophets or preachers would have spoken a so called word of God over your life but due to you not being spiritually aware of their demonic manipulations you automatically thought it was God. What about those healing they claimed you got after they prayed for you when the truth is either the pain came back of the pain transferred from one area of your body to the next.

Scripture provides us with an abundance of knowledge as it relates to evil spirit replicating so-called miracles. In the Book of Revelations, John the Revelator said, "And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the Dragon and out of the mouth of the Beast and out of the mouth of the false Prophet. For they are the spirits of devils working "MIRACLES," which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty," Revelation 16:13-14. So, it is crystal clear that not only can devils work miracles but particularly through false Prophets. How do you know if that Prophet that spoke over your life and performed a miracle wasn't an agent of Satan's camp manipulating you via demonic means? What did you use as a tester to discern the spirit emanating from this person? This is why Scripture clearly says to us, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try or test the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. At this moment know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that confesses not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: 1 John 4:1-3.

I am always left in a state of disarray when I meet up with folks who always have a word from the Lord. But at the same time when asked if they regularly read their bible or are they, frequent hearers of the word of God, they're hearing from God seems to always outweigh the feeding of their spirit via the word of God. Thus, I must now wonder are they really hearing the voice of God or the perpetrating voice of Satan?

My friend I can not emphasize enough the importance of feeding your inner man which is your spirit. It is excellent to give praise and worship, it is great to attend every conference, conclave and church meeting but it is of greater importance to acquaint yourself with the spirit of God via the word of God.

Scripture warns us again, "For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And marvel not; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also are transformed as the ministers of righteousness whose end shall be according to their works", 2 Corinthians 11:13-15.

My spiritual advice to you is simply this, ask God right now, to open your spiritual eyes and ears and overwhelm you with the spirit of discernment. Ask him to subject your flesh to his Holy Spirit, which is the spirit of truth, sent forth to guide us his children into all truth. Now, renounce all deception and manipulation performed by Satan and his false prophets unknowingly over your life and ask God to forgive you for neglecting his word and being lead by your own understanding in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!
