The Inability To Spiritually Discern

"While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things
which are seen are temporal, but the things not seen are eternal" 2 Corinthians 4:18.

These were the words penned by the Apostle Paul to the church of Corinth. Basically, the Apostle is encouraging the church of Corinth to pay greater attention to the things of the realm of the spirit instead of being misled by visible things. The Apostle Paul clearly understood, based on his statement, the primary rule or principle of the spirit realm, and that rule is; all things, visible and invisible, have their origin in the unseen world or what we know to be the spirit world. In fact, he went a step further by revealing that the contents of that world are eternal, suggesting that there is no ending or dying of anything from that world, unlike our world, where everything has a beginning and an end.

Today I would like to share with you some spiritual insight that I hope would not only expand your spiritual understanding but will cause you to focus on what is real and of greater importance as opposed to visible things that's for the most part, and at best misleading you and wasting your efforts. Have you ever wondered how a person could be so anointed, carry many titles such as prophet, master prophet, Evangelist, Elder, etc, and can not discern the spiritual root behind your physical matters?

How is it that when a so-called prophet calls you up to prophesy to you, for the most part, he or she only sees material things such as houses, cars, promotion on one's job, etc., and rarely if ever, reveals the spiritual root causes of your ongoing matters?

In Luke 13, scripture tells us that a woman was physically challenged for 18 years. Her ailment was that she could not stand erect, she was bent over, and again she was in this position for 18 years. Scripture further reveals that she was a daughter of Abraham, suggesting that she was a Believer of God Almighty. So, two questions popped up in my mind while pondering on this passage of scripture.

1) How could a child of God be physically challenged for such a long time and

2) How come this church she attended assumingly for 18 years could not discern the spiritual root cause behind her physical illness and, by the power of God, set her free?

Well, scripture records that while Jesus was teaching in this particular synagogue, he immediately spiritually discerned that this woman had a "SPIRIT OF INFIRMITY," unlike the other "title carriers" who just saw her in a physically incapacitated state and proceeded to cast the "SPIRIT OF INFIRMITY" out of this woman. It is further revealed that immediately when this "SPIRIT OF INFIRMITY" was cast out of this woman, she was able to do what she could not do for 18 years, and that was to stand erect. As usual, Jesus is constantly attacking the root and never the symptom.

Again, how is it that her spiritual leaders could not spiritually discern the fact that even though she had a visible physical illness, they could not discern the spiritual root behind it? This was really challenging for me to comprehend because it makes me wonder were her spiritual leaders really concern about her well-being, were her leaders really as spiritual as they claimed? For example, after Jesus had delivered this lady from this oppressive spirit, it is said that the synagogue leaders were angry with Jesus, questioning him as to how he could perform such a deliverance on the Sabbath day. Wow! Now isn't this interesting? Their behavior clearly shows that they were not interested in the lady being healed. In fact, as far as they were concerned, she could have stayed in that position and condition until the day she died; their behavior also suggests that they were focusing more on what was visible as opposed to spiritual things, which they ought to be focus on according to the Apostle Paul...Wow! Just for a moment, seriously think about your church. Do they speak and behave more towards material and physical things, or are they focusing on the spirit of Adultery, the spirit of division, lying spirits, etc? During prayer, do the prayers for you or the congregation go like this, "Lord, send a financial blessing, Father, open the windows of Heaven and pour out financial resources," or due to their spiritual insight, they're praying against the spirit of poverty and the devouring spirits that are consuming your spiritual finances thus, disabling physical, financial resources to manifest in your life?

Now, let's turn the limelight on you and your place of worship. After all the prophecies regarding new spouses, homes, cars, inherited wealth, etc., again focusing on material things, did the Prophets and spiritual leaders discern spiritually the spirit of infirmity attacking your body with cancer? Did the prophet see the witchcraft targeting your life? Did the prophet discern that your illness is not natural but its origin is that of witchcraft, and even if it has been revealed by the prophet did they do what Jesus did and cast the spirit out so like the woman who had the spirit of infirmity you can enjoy a better quality of life? How about this one? Did the prophet see that piece of paper with your enemy's name written on the inside of your shoe signifying hardship and oppression for your enemy as the source of why you can not get ahead in life? You see, my friend, the more you use the bible as a benchmark or measuring stick to the non-sense that these misguided folks do, the more you'll see why after all the prayers, all the sowing of financial seeds, and whatever else they have been asking you to do absolutely nothing is happening for you.

To discern is to observe that which is beyond the physical, just like how the Apostle Paul said in my opening statement,  "While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."

Why not join me in prayer this morning, asking God to open your spiritual eyes to discern beyond the natural displays of your physical matters and cause you to spiritually see the root causes of the past, pending, and future issues in your life and the lives of others. Father, remove the spiritual scales that have compromised our spiritual sight and insist that we focus on the physical instead of emphasizing the spiritual. Lord, we are asking you to amplify your spiritual gift of discernment in our lives so that we are better able to discern and decipher your will for our lives and to identify and resist the counterfeits that would attempt to seduce and lead us on the road of destruction in the mighty and matchless name of your son and our savior Jesus Christ. Amen!

I hope you're not sitting on your God given gifts

Rather than sitting on your God given talents and gift and waiting on someone to "ordain" you with some title to begin your operation of them. You need to be operating in your gift NOW!!!!!

There are many folks trying to discover their position in life, however the talents and gifts that God has given you to assist them with are laying wast, while they're suffering unnecessarily. How long will you sit under that dormant, lifeless, riddle with tradition Ministry, while the folks that God has assigned to your anointing wander about aimlessly and quite possibly being hurled into a Christless hell. Make no mistake these folks blood will be on your hand as a result of your inactivity.

God has been calling and prompting you to begin excising the gifts and talents he's given you, but as usual you're quite satisfied with adhering to regular church tradition while under the assumption that once you follow those traditions you're in right standing with God. Here is what scripture says about those of you sitting on your gifts and talents and believing it's okay:

"For [even the whole] creation (all nature) waits expectantly and longs earnestly for God’s sons to be made known [waits for the revealing, the disclosing of their (sonship)." Romans 8:19. Creation, mankind is desperately waiting on you to get it together so that they can be delivered and advanced.

Do you know what your gifts and talents are? Are your spiritual leaders on a quest in assisting you with discovering those gifts and talents? Are you being assigned by  your church leadership in the areas of ministry where your gifts benefits most? Are you sitting under a dictator like leadership that is only interested in tradition and the Pastor is the only one that can mount the pulpit to preach, while the God given talents of the members go to waste?

You were not sent to your church by God to sit on your gifts. In fact your leaders aught to have spiritually recognize your God given talent and began the process of training you and eventually deploying you in the area of ministry that will advance the kingdom of God in the earth. Romans 8:19 can not be achieved if you're sitting under an egotistic oppressive leader that have misplaced the purpose of being a Shepard over the sheep or you just decided to make the decision to sit on your gifts and talents.

I promise you, the day of reckoning will come which of course is the day of Judgement and many folks are under the misguided belief that the day of judgement will be primarily about God judging sin as we know it. On the contrary, according to Matthew 25:13-30. It is interesting to know that in this parable the servant that decided not to use his God given talent was labeled as a WICKED and SLOTHFUL servant and eventually cast into outer darkness.

Now, isn't it surprising that there is no scriptual evidence in this particular chapter where this servant fornicated, lied, committed adultery, stole or participated in any sin that would have warranted his end result? However, his sin was the disabling, inactive, non-use and procrastination of the use of his talent, with the purpose of benefiting others. Have you ever been taught by your religious leaders that no matter how holy you may appear to be or claim to be and by extension not participating in any known sin does not negate the fact that the non use of your God given talents and gifts could place you in an eternity you never prepared for wile on earth? Yes you sing in the choir, but is singing your gift? Yes you love to preach or teach but are you in the right calling or this is where you want to be because of the prestige and lime light it brings to you?

This is divine revelation my friend and it is not by chance you have read this article to its end. Ask God to reveal to you what gifts and talents he's given you. Along with asking God to place you in an environment that will recognize and train you in what God has called you to do with the sole intent of deploying you in the right area or ministry.

I will end with this, it is frequently said in religious circles that what God has given you no man can take from you, but lets compare this misleading statement with what scripture has to say, "So take the talent away from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents. For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will be furnished richly so that he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away" Matthew 25:28-29. Now, will you believe man or God?

Read the word for yourself, study the word for yourself, seek understanding of your purpose and where God has called you to be. At the end of the day you can not blame no one but yourself for not multiplying what God has invested in you!

Someone has been sent to sustain you


The Lord has placed you on the  mind and in the spirit of someone who may not look the part but they have been anointed just to sustain you. As a reminder, it is the anointing that destroys yokes, Isaiah 10:27.

CAUTION: The one that has been sent to sustain you, will look as if they need help themselves, nevertheless, it will be this God ordain divine connection between both of you that will supply the much needed resources to overwhelmingly satisfy you.

Scripture records that the word of the Lord came to Elijah saying, "Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee" 1 Kings 17:9.

We would later learn in this same chapter that this same widow woman needed help herself. In fact when Elijah showed up the widow woman via her own admission said to Elijah that her son and herself were about to eat the last of what they had and then prepare to die, 1 Kings 17:12. Now, least we forget, 1 Kings 17:9 clearly stated that God told Elijah that he had commanded the widow woman to sustain him. Before we proceed any further with this spiritual insight let's define the word sustain. The word sustain means to support, hold, or bear up from below; or to bear the weight of something. It also means to supply with food, drink, and other necessities of life.

Logically one must ask, if to sustain means to provide assistance to others, then how was this obviously lacking in resources widow woman suppose to sustain Elijah? Well, just like you and me Elijah could have dismissed the woman based on her appearance or obvious circumstances. However, it is clear that both parties ignored each other's physical positions and conditions and were more interested in obeying the word of the lord that was given to both of them that would later produce the manifested power of God.

As a reminder, God commanded Elijah to go to Zarephath as well as God commanded the widow woman to sustain Elijah, both parties OBEYED THE COMMAND OF THE LORD. It would have been as a result of not only their divine connection but more importantly their obedience to God that Elijah as a prophet of God declared the much needed resources into the widow woman's life, that sustained her and her son until the end of the drought that was currently going on in Israel.

I am here to tell someone reading this post that God has sent someone to sustain you. Please! Do not make the foolish mistake of judging what you think your help should look like and as a result turn away or dismiss the help that God has sent you. Secondly, and this is very important to note. The sign of the one sent to sustain you WILL COME SEEKING HELP FROM YOU! Make no mistake, it will be the assistance you lend to your unassuming sustainer that will release the much needed resources into your life. Divine connections + obedience = PROVISION!

"Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth" 1 Corinthians 10:24.

The simple principle of Success and failure


I can recall growing up, my grandmother would frequently say, "Practice makes perfect". Basically what she was saying, was that the more you do anything eventually you'll become perfect at it or at best give you the same results.

While pondering her saying, I began to marry her saying with the word "system". The word system is defined as a set of interacting or interdependent components forming an integrated whole. in other words a set of things or a group of people working individually knowingly or unknowingly for good or bad to produce, create or complete a whole or anything.

Thus, it brought me to the following thought. Whatever it is in life that is repeatedly going on with you (good or bad) it will always be as a result of a system or a repetitive behavior, structure or connections that you're knowingly or unknowingly following or participating with that's providing your end result.

Therefore, bad relationships, poverty, unhappiness, confusion, lack, negative thoughts, failure and its opposites are indicators that there are systems that you're involved with or a part of, where your consistent practicing of certain things or involvement with certain people are repeatedly providing you with what you like or dislike...... The reality is, it's impossible to achieve something different by doing the same thing over and over again with the same people or components!

Consequently, in order to change what you have been consistently achieving, then carefully analyze the components and people that are responsible and always involved with your end product!

It is therefore true that Insanity is doing the same thing the same way, possibly with the same people all the time, however expecting a different result!

Change for 2015 must begin with doing something different in 2014

If you do nothing else before the end of this year 2014, please consider going on a fast. I have heard
the stories of so many folks saying to me, "Kevin! All I need is a husband/wife and things will be good for me" "Kevin! If God could only bless me with X-amount of dollars thing would change for me". "Kev! If only I could get this promotion my life would take off.

Friends! Please, if you haven't listen to anything I have been saying to you through out the course of the year, please take my seemingly foolish advice and Participate in a fast before this year comes to a close! A fast will realign you with all the blessings the enemy has hijacked from you during the course of the year. The Enemy's success in hijacking your spiritual blessings were to always connect you to something, someone or some place that you had no business being attached to, which ultimately hindered and kept you from those divine appointments that were specifically designed by God to advance you.

Scripture, clearly tells us that we are blessed with "ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS" in heavenly/spiritual places, Eph. 1:2. However, these spiritual or invisible blessings whose purpose is to become physical or tangible at specific times in our lives can not be manifested if we are on the WRONG DESTINY!

Spiritual blessings are the raw material of what we call physical blessings. For example, your husband, job, car, monies, home etc were all spiritual prior to their manifestation. Scripture again makes this clear when it said, "There is a time and season for every purpose under the sun which is also inclusive of our spiritual blessings manifesting into natural or physical blessings at specific times, Eccl. 3:1. With that said, your car, husband/wife, home, job etc ARE NOT YOUR BLESSINGS.... INSTEAD THEY ARE THE RESULTS OF YOUR GOD ORDAINED SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS THAT WERE NOT INTERRUPTED BUT INSTEAD WERE ABLE TO CONNECT WITH YOU AT THE RIGHT TIME TO PRODUCE WHAT YOU ARE NOW CALLING THE BLESSING TODAY.

With this understanding in mind you must go on a fast and I highly recommend a 3 day fast minimum or a 7 day fast maximum specifically asking God to restore you of all the divine appointments that the enemy has caused you to miss and as a result you never encountered the manifestation of what God had in place spiritually for you. Ask God to realign your spirit, body and soul to become one with His Spirit so that there would be no future interruptions with all spiritual blessings that has been put in place before the foundation of the world. Say to yourself or out loud right now, "LORD REROUTE ME AND CAUSE ME TO COLLIDE WITH EVERY BLESSING THAT HAS SLIPPED PASS ME, FATHER, DETACH ME FROM EVERY CURSE THAT HAS BLOCKED MY BLESSINGS IN THE NAME OF YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST!

This must be done prior to 2015, also, with the 3 day fast it must be a dry fast, meaning no fluids or food. If you desire to perform the 7 day fast, then there must be no food consumption only water and natural juices only with no additives.

IF YOU WANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT IN 2015, THEN IT MUST HAVE BEGUN WITH YOU DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT IN 2014.

Depression is a spirit

As long as you insist on dealing with depression as a feeling or a barrage of negative thoughts, then
the truth is you are in full co-operation with the spirit of depression to keep you in a STATE OF DEPRESSION!

Yes! You read correctly that depression is indeed a spirit and not a feeling. The feeling of depression is evidence of the spirit of depression attacking your human spirit.

The power behind the spirit of depression is to always keep its victims ignorant of its true identity and to cause them to focus on things such as loneliness, a divorce, being fired, chronic sickness, etc., as the source of their depression. Again, these things are just the tools used by this conniving spirit to misplace the efforts of their victims in attempting to eliminate its presence.

I am led to say to someone tonight to stop fighting the tentacles of depression and begin to fight the real spirit of depression, which is the root of your depression if you desire permanent relief.

"Father, I thank you for revealing that depression is a spirit. Therefore, I will discontinue asking you to take away from me what I have now identified via your spirit as the branches of depression. I am now asking you to destroy by fire the root of depression that I now know to be the spirit of depression.

Spirit of depression, I refuse to ignorantly work with you to keep myself depressed via negative thoughts, grieving over things that I can not change, the loss of a job, a broken marriage, disappointing kids, failures, etc. Instead, I agree with the word of God that says, "I must give thanks in all things because this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning me at this point in my life" 1 Thess. 5:18. Lord, even though I can not understand the reason behind this harmful and perplexing matter, the spirit of depression has taken full advantage of me. I will continue to hold on and speak your word that clearly says, "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose" Romans 8:28.

Finally, Father, I speak to the spirit of depression via the authority you have given me. Therefore I say to the spirit of depression, "God Almighty, has given me the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness" Isaiah 61:3. Spirit of depression, you have been identified and exposed. Spirit of depression, I curse you and your devices. I reject you in every area of my life. I dispatch the angelic host to destroy all your efforts against me. Spirit of depression, the Lord, said that he has become a curse for me. Therefore I command every generational curse of depression in my family to be broken at this very moment in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ!

Friends, you must speak to the depressing voices that are talking to you by declaring the word of God against it in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Stop fooling yourself; somethings and folks have to be severed in 2015!


Many folks  are in the valley of decision in terms of letting go of what they are fully aware of that's
causing them not to grow.

2014 has been a challenging year but at the same time we contributed greatly to those challenges by not severing what had us anchored to a life of defeat and anti-progress. Believe it or not there are some churches, some Pastors, some friends and even places that you must cut loose from and literally bury, signifying that there will be no returning to that same old, non-progressing, defeated, depressing state.

As much as you may admire some folks or even look up to some folks, you must remain committed to the formula of life and that is you must determine if that person, place or thing is adding to your life, taking from your life or keeping you anchored in life! Which ever one you have determine to be the case, please note that your choice also makes you a contributor as to what becomes of your life as a result of separating yourself from them or being connected to them.

Always keep in mind that success or failure can not happen by itself. Instead, one must be connected to or disconnected from someone, something or some place that with combine efforts will produce the result of failure or success!

Now, with all of that said let us do a quick test and we will use the year 2014 as the testing ground in an effort to reveal who or what we need to cut loose in 2015 if we truly desire success or at least to achieve a better quality of life in 2015. Think about it for a moment, who or what were you connected to or who or what were the common denominator during your times of success and failures in 2014. Let me make it a little more simple for you. Why is it that ever since you hooked up with person-X in 2014 absolutely nothing seem to be going right for you, better yet, ever since you've join that particular church all they ever talk about is you sowing a financial see for prosperity but you've plunged further into debt since you started attending there but you have never had a financial problem prior to attending there?

The above test will enable you to now see what connections had you going forward, standing still or taking you backwards in life. As a reminder, it will always be the synergy of something, someone or some place that will produce the end result of failure or success for you!

I have said this before and it's worth repeating again, 2015 will be a year of revelation. Revelation means to reveal something that was hidden or to make clear something that was not understood. The purpose of any revelation is to ultimately give to the person in whom the revelation is being revealed, a greater insight or to go beyond the surface of what they thought they knew so that they can now make a better decision.

Father, reveal to us that which was hidden so that we will not repeat the same cycle of failure in 2015 that we did in 2014 in the mighty name of you son Jesus Christ. Amen!

Your angels are unemployed

Sometimes it requires sitting in an isolated place in complete silence while eliminating all negative thoughts that are accompanied with a demonic suggestion to hear the voice of God.

The voice of God will always be accompanied with peace and a sense of comfort. I do not know who this is for but whatever challenge you're experiencing right now, why not find yourself a place that you can welcome the still small voice of God, and you must now speak the word of God in the midst of your challenges.

As disappointing and confusing your matter may appear right now, know for sure that as with all things it IS TEMPORAL and subject to change..........

God is on your side and is patiently waiting for you to give him his word to bring change to your dislike circumstances. Scripture says the following, "Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word" Psalm 103:20.

In other words, the angels that the Lord has assigned to you are currently UNEMPLOYED simply because you refuse to speak the word of God! THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT THEY RESPOND TO! The word "HEARKENING" in the above scripture means to OBEY then ACT!

Stop crying defeat and begin declaring what God has said about your situation according to his word, God has placed his word above his name. God is watching over his word to perform it. God's Word can not return unto him unaccomplished, but it must fulfill what he has sent it to do. My friend, hear me today, by keeping your mouth close or speaking things that are contrary to what God has said in his word about your situation is considered spiritual suicide! Give your assigned angelic host employment by deploying them via THE WORD OF GOD!

When you change things will change

Make no mistake my friend, it is only when you change that you will begin to see things changing
around you and for you!

Our bible clearly tells us that every seed produces after its kind, Genesis 1:12. Therefore change in any matter will have to be initiated by the changing of the seeds that's being planted in order to achieve a different end result or a completely different harvest.

Religious jargon would have you believe that seeds are for the most part financial and that once you plant a financial seed it has the ability to change whatever negative circumstances you're experiencing in your life. Well, not only is this unscriptual but it's also a plan of the enemy to keep you in a cycle of ignorance and defeat.

I promise you whatever it is that you desire to change or you desire to see change in, the initiation of the change you desire or seek MUST begin with you! The bible is saturated with this clear understanding as it relates to change. Luke 6:43-44, says, "For a good tree can not produce corrupt fruit; neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit" it further states that every tree is known by its fruit, meaning if a person plants a grape seed, then they should not be in expectation of apples as a harvest and if they decided to plant orange seeds it would be foolish of them to expect mangos as a harvest.

Therefore, change is the inevitable of all things but we determine what that change will be based on the seeds we have been planting. I would like to say to someone today to please CONSIDER THE SEEDS YOU HAVE BEEN PLANTING BECAUSE IT IS THOSE SEEDS THAT HAVE AND WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE YOU WITH YOUR LIKE OR DISLIKE HARVEST OR END RESULT YOU HAVE BEEN RECEIVING!

Father, please in the name of your son Jesus Christ, reveal to your people the seeds that they have been planting be it knowingly or unknowingly that has been guaranteeing them the cycles of defeat, disappointment and failure in their lives. Lord, cause them to realize and come to the understanding that one can not plant the seeds of hate and expect love as a harvest in return. Lord open their spiritual eyes so that they would understand that it is the seeds of financial  mismanagement that they have mastered all their lives that has produced for them a sea of lack and poverty. Finally Father, cause them to know that it will only be when they decide to change their methods, thoughts, ideas, imagination, ways etc, which are their seeds of life, then the change that they seek and desire will begin to manifest, in the name of your son Jesus Christ!

"You must initiate the change you desire to see, when you change, then and only then will the things and people around you will change, simply put, YOU ARE THE CHANGE THAT YOU ARE SEEKING!

God Hears The Prayers Of The Righteous

The LORD is far from the wicked: but he hears the prayer of the righteous." Proverbs 15:29.

The Book of Proverbs provides numerous promises and benefits for the righteous. The above scripture is just one of them. Many of us were raised in a religious structure where we seldom read our Bibles. And even when we did manage to read them, it was solely to claim that we had read them without actually considering the message they were conveying to us.

From my experience, pondering and slowly digesting scripture can challenge the human spirit and mind. The righteous are those who believe in and accept the God of the Bible and understand that applying the scriptures will bring about the change they seek in their lives. These are the same scriptures that Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, and other righteous figures in the Bible followed. 

The scripture mentioned above can be a great source of comfort for those going through tough times. It reveals that the same God who created and oversees everything, with a plan for all things, has also provided this scripture to assure the righteous that despite being involved in everything, He never stops listening to their prayers.

"My friend, please trust me when I say that I understand what you're going through. It's common to feel like your prayers are going unheard or that God has forgotten or ignored you. I've been there too, and the enemy's voice can be so loud in our heads, telling us that we're wasting our time praying, that God isn't listening, or that we must have sinned and are being punished. But those thoughts are not necessarily true, and my experience has shown me that consistency in prayer will make a difference."

According to the scripture, "The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous." This statement implies two things: firstly, God does not support those who are wicked and working against us, and secondly, even if it seems like our prayers are unheard, we can always be sure that God is listening to the prayers of the righteous.

To the person reading this post this morning who is not righteous, why not do what is necessary to become righteous so that you would be assured that your prayers are being heard according to the scripture? Just believe, accept, and confess the Lord Jesus Christ from your heart, and you will be given your spiritual robe of righteousness and its endless benefits.

Righteous people continue to pray for the unrighteous so that the God who promises to hear the prayers of the righteous will answer our prayers concerning the salvation of the unrighteous.

Spiritual Limitations and restrictions will be lifted in 2015

It is my genuine prayer today, that the God of all revelation in the name of his son Jesus Christ will
reveal and expose to you via his spirit everyone and anything that Satan has assigned in this year 2015 to overtly or covertly WASTE YOUR TIME!

Everyone with the assignment to delay you from connecting with what God has put in place to advance you, I come in agreement with you that their devices and counsel against you become utter foolishness and never reach manifestation in the name of Jesus Christ!

Every evil counsel, every evil voice along with all demonic altars speaking and devising consistent evil against your God ordain destiny, let those voices be silenced and destroyed by the eternal fire of the living God!

Every spiritual stumbling block that has hindered your spiritual  progress with the end result of causing you not to produce and progress physically, I speak and command spiritual cages to imprison those spiritual stumbling blocks so that your assigned blessings will flow without delay to you in 2015!

I speak specifically to the spirit of barrenness, that has caused you not to produce what God has called you to produce, we command this spirit to become barren in the name of Jesus Christ!

Every spirit husband and spirit wife that has either caused you to connect with the wrong mate, marry the wrong person or has delay you from being married, it is my prayer that God will send spiritual fire and brimstone, like he did physical fire and brimstone in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah and destroy every calculating and deceitful spirit that has pulled you off course in connecting with whom you were suppose to be connect with.

Let every Devil sitting on your destiny, sitting on your potential, sitting on your favor, sitting on your opportunities, sitting on your LIFE! Be consumed by the fire of God right now in the name of Jesus Christ!

I decree and declare by the authority of God that this year, 2015! Will be like no other year for you because the restrictions and limitations have been lifted spiritually so that you can flow in the assigned blessings of God physically. God will restore you seven fold of everything that the enemy has stolen from you, let Proverbs 6:31 be your promise from God as it relates to your restoration in 2015, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!!!!!

"I AM AGREEING WITH YOU MY FRIEND THAT GOD WILL DO WHAT HE SAID HE WILL DO FOR YOU IN 2015"

Understanding the Spiritual Implications Behind Demonic Altars

In the world of witchcraft, covenants are made at demonic altars. Demonic altars are special covert
places erected by witches and warlocks to summons demonic entities to do their bidding, but more importantly to covertly covenant that person and by extension their family to that demonic altar.

The power of a demonic altar is created via the spilling of blood at that altar. It will always be the blood sacrifice performed on that altar that will summons evil spirits to oppress others spiritually. Unfortunately, from a Christian perspective, very few Christians understand the spiritual implications of an altar. In fact, if you were to ask them what is the significance of an altar, they would probably say, an altar is a place where one prays! While this may be true to a certain extent altar carry a far great spiritual implication in the realm of the spirit.

Many of you reading this post right now, have zero idea that you maybe spiritually in covenant to a demonic altar. Unknowing to you, you were spiritually tied to a demonic family altar when your fore-parents or some family member or even yourself decided to make the foolish mistake of participating in the works of witchcraft. What your family member or fore-parents or yourself did not know was that the day you made the decision to participate in the world of witchcraft an evil covenant was simultaneously forged unknowingly to the participants that spiritually tied themselves and their family members not only to that demonic altar but also to a life of oppression and strange negative circumstances.

Let me provide some biblical proof to unveil the mystery of demonic altars. Scripture says to us in Judges 6, that the children of Israel were under serious oppression for seven years by their enemies the Midianites. At this point, the nation of Israel could not understand why or what was the reason for their oppression and why would God allow them to be oppressed in the promise land that he gave them. Scripture goes on to say that they cried out to God. God, in turn, sent an Angel who later instructed Gideon to pay a visit to his Father's house which would reveal to Gideon the root or source as to why they were being afflicted and for so many years.

The bible says that when Gideon arrived at his Father's house, unknowing to the children of Israel, Gideon's father had a demonic altar set up in his home it was an altar of Baal. It was because of this altar that Gideon's father had erected secretly in his home making sacrifices unto demonic deities and as a result, the entire nation of Israel was cursed as a result of the evil that ONE MAN WAS DOING!

I have met with many people who have asked me to pray with them, pray for them, fast with them, etc and as a result, absolutely nothing happened. However, we would have discovered later that absolutely nothing happened even though we fasted and prayed, simply because that person was initiated and was in covenant with a family demonic altar, unknowing to them of course. That's right! You see my friend covenants are respected by God and before God can do anything for you that evil covenant MUST BE BROKEN! In Gideon's case, it was only when Gideon destroyed his father's altar and erected an altar unto God and began to make Godly sacrifices unto God, then and only then the spiritual order changed as a result of the destruction of the altar, that paved the way for Gideon and the children of Israel to begin to progress and subdue their enemies physically.

It is this kind of spiritual activity that is in place that is causing some group, family, organization, or individual to not physically advance in life. As long as we continue to subscribe to ignorance or only rely on what some preacher is saying to us and not searching the scriptures for ourselves, then were prune for failure and defeat in the future.

I can literally write volumes of books in regards to this mystery. This understanding is basically a foreign language to the average church simply because they DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE POWER AND SPIRITUAL COVENANTS OF ALTARS!

Let me say to you right now, if you have been a Christian for any number of years and you have been paying your tithes and making other financial contributions but yet you still find yourself broke or continuing to struggle, then chances are you are spiritually tied to a family altar. This is how it works, whatever it is that the witchcraft practitioner asked you to bring to the altar to sacrifice and monies were exchanges to "pay the spirits to do your bidding", well unknowing to you or whoever has participated in this evil has covenant with that altar unknowingly and as a result everyone in that family will have a money problem until the covenant with that altar has been destroyed. It is the same if a family member or yourself visited the witch doctor to have the witch doctor bring about separation in someone's marriage or relationship so that you can be with that person, well my friend that altar now controls the destiny of all relationships in that family simply because a covenant was covertly established between the person who desires the evil to be done and the altar.

Therefore, it is vital for me in my Ministry to ask questions that may seem irrelevant to the one seeking help but to myself, I am always in search of the spiritual root that has that person going backward in life. In 7 out of 10 cases, it is discovered that either that person, their parents, grandparents, husband, wife, or some family member were or currently is involved with witchcraft and as a result of that person unknowingly was spiritually tied to the altar. I know many of you are reading such information for the first time and I am sure this same mystery has been the source of your relentless issues. You must ask God to not only reveal to you if the source of your problems are as a result of altars in your life that you are or may not be aware of but more importantly you must ask God to destroy the spiritual covenants that have held you to that particular demonic altar. Please note! Whoever is in covenant with that demonic altar, knowingly or unknowingly, is ultimately controlled by that altar.

There is so much more I would like to release concerning demonic altars, but I will end here for now and will continue tomorrow in a series of writings on "Understanding the spiritual implications of demonic altars".

Make sure you do a spiritual and physical cleansing prior to 2015

While December is known for a month of celebrating the Christmas holidays. Personally, I find it an excellent month to consider doing a fast.

When we look back at the events that have happened throughout this year, especially considering the stress, difficulties, deaths, etc. I find December as a month we should detoxify our spirits and bodies via fasting.

Having done several fast myself, with the most lengthy one being 40 days consuming water and natural juices only, the benefits are quite rewarding, particularly with the bonus of being realigned spiritually and mentally with a sharper sense of purpose.

Fasting is the act of abstaining from particular or all food, drink, or both, for a while. There are two types of fasting, 1) Absolute: fast: an absolute fast is defined as abstinence from all food and liquid for a specified period. Then there is 2) A partial fast: A partial fast is where one would eat certain foods and drinks for a defined period. In most cases, a partial fast would be limited to just fruits or vegetables and water only or water and natural juices.

According to the book of Isaiah, it is said that a genuine fast will loose the bands of wickedness, undo the heavy burdens, let the oppressed go free, and break every yoke, Isaiah 58:6.

 Amazingly, in verse 8 of this same chapter, the prophet Isaiah said, "Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.

Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity" Isaiah 58:8-9.

The statement, "thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily," simply means that your understanding, wisdom, knowledge, and discernment will spiritually and physically be realigned. It will be sharpened with better clarity and your health restored.

Now, please bear in mind lest we become confused; Isaiah is speaking to the people of God in this text, which we know to be the children of Israel. I am attempting to point out this very much overlooked point simply because most folks are misguided into believing that Believers of Jesus Christ can not be burdened, oppressed, or spiritually challenged. In fact, when others see Christians challenged, it is assumed that there may be unconfessed sin in their lives. They're likely in desperate need of a fast to realign and reinforce their spiritual power and authority.

Just consider it for a moment. Everything in life needs some type of rejuvenation or maintenance to maintain optimum performance. Therefore, the human spirit and the body are no different.

I am seriously encouraging you to attempt some type of fasting before you enter the new year as spiritual and physical detoxification from this year's events and be fully prepared spiritually and physically for the coming events of next year.

Can Fasting Be Used For Good And Evil

During our last teaching on fasting, we basically covered the overall aspect of fasting
and its benefits.

Today, I want to emphasize that fasting is a spiritual principle and a spiritual protocol to request answers and divine reinforcement from the spirit realm.

Firstly, fasting is a spiritual principle whose purpose is not just to rejuvenate or restore the one fasting spiritually. Still, more importantly, it is the means of summoning the spirit realm for either assistance or answers to certain perplexing earthly or even spiritual matters. For example, whenever the nation of Israel was being challenged by war with their enemies, for the most part, the entire country would join in on a fast to see what was God's position before their involvement in whomever that war would be with, 2 Chronicles 20:3.

In another case, when Israel was being oppressed and pillaged by their enemies, and they were totally confused as to why it was all happening, they fasted in an attempt to seek God's answer to their perplexing problems, Ezra 8:23.

Amazingly, many folks are unaware that because fasting is a spiritual principle, the act of fasting is not limited to Godly things. Consequently, fasting can also summon demonic/evil assistance and knowledge. Of course, most Christians just associate fasting with things of God. However, the book of 1 Kings 21:7-13 says, " And Jezebel his wife said unto him, Dost thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? Arise, eat bread, and let thine heart be merry: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.

8 So she wrote letters in Ahab's name, sealed them with his seal, and sent them to the elders and the nobles in his city dwelling with Naboth.

9 And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:

10 And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.

11 And the men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who were the inhabitants in his city, did as Jezebel had sent unto them, and as it was written in the letters she had sent unto them.

12 They proclaimed a fast and set Naboth on high among the people.

13 And there came in two men, children of Belial, and sat before him: and the men of Belial witnessed against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth did blaspheme God and the king. Then they carried him forth out of the city and stoned him with stones, that he died.

After reading this passage of scripture, we must ask ourselves, who was the nation of Israel fasting to? The entire fast was based on lies; Jezebel sent two men as witnesses against Naboth, who apparently lied to him. How is it that the Elders and nobles of the city could not discern that this fast was not of God? Finally, how is it that in every case where Israel fasted, the result of the fast would be that God would send a prophet to declare what would be a consequence of the fast? However, in this case, no prophets were involved, and no answers from God as to what Naboth's end result should be. In fact, it appears as if they went through a political procedure to officially execute Naboth that was fueled by demonic fasting.

This evil fast, of course, allowed them to be advised and controlled by Satan. However, for the most part, just like many of us today, when we hear the term fasting, we think it is automatically Godly. I have read many books of pastors who were once witch Doctors or witchcraft workers and via their own confession. At the same time, they were a part of the occult; they would go on arduous fasting to summon the help of more extraordinary demonic powers to do their evil bidding.

I will take it a step further. As you may recall, the Prophet Isaiah was confronted by the children of Israel concerning a particular fact that they had done, but nothing panned out for them after the fact. Here is what the Prophet Isaiah, as an oracle of God, said to the children of Israel:

"Why have we fasted, they say, and You do not see it? Why have we afflicted ourselves, and You take no knowledge [of it]? Behold [O Israel] on the day of your fast [when you should be grieving for your sins]. You find profit in your business, and [instead of stopping all work, as the law implies you and your workmen should do], you extort a total amount of labor from your hired servants.

4 [The facts are that] you fast only for strife and debate and to smite with the fist of wickedness. Fasting as you do today will not cause your voice to be heard on high.

5 Is such a fast as yours what I have chosen, a day for a man to humble himself with sorrow in his soul? [Is true fasting merely mechanical?] Is it only to bow down his head like a bulrush and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him [to indicate a condition of the heart that he does not have]? Will you call this a fast and an acceptable day to the Lord?" Isaiah 58:3-5 Amplified version.

Question! Could someone be making evil fasting against you and, as a result, blocking or hindering your future blessings?

The exact protocols to fasting


The word "then" is a great indicator regarding pointing to something that's going to happen next. It is also a term that refers to something being added, for example, "I love my job, but then it pays well also."

In today's teaching on fasting, we will explore this word in regards to fasting to reveal that when we participate correctly in fasting, it will be "THEN" that things will begin to happen or change for us.

Scripture admonishes us that during our times of fasting, the things that we took pleasure and comfort in before fastings, such as our food, home, and other comforts, we must now distribute or share it among those that are in need of it. In fact, this particular protocol of fasting is a must if we desire to inherit the benefits that come as a result of it. Let us read below what the prophet Isaiah had to say about this to the children of Israel:

"Is it not to divide your bread with the hungry and bring the homeless poor into your house—when you see the naked, that you cover him, and that you hide not yourself from [the needs of] your own flesh and blood?" Isaiah 58:7. As you would have read, a part of the process of fasting is to share what we would have normally been comforted with before fasting, he insists that we do not hide from the need of others during this very critical period during our fasting.

In verse 9 of this same chapter, it begins with our word, "THEN," "Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and He will say, Here I am. If you take away from your midst yokes of oppression [wherever you find them], the finger pointed in scorn [toward the oppressed or the godly], and every form of false, harsh, unjust, and wicked speaking,

10 And if you pour out that with which you sustain your own life for the hungry and satisfy the need of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in darkness, and your obscurity and gloom become like the noonday" Isaiah 58:9-10.

Again, I have to point out the fact that the prophet is not speaking to sinners or people that serve other gods. In fact, he is talking to people that have identified and was at that time serving the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob the God of heaven and earth. He was revealing to them that to realign themselves with the purposes of God and bring them back spiritually as to where they should have been at that point they had to follow the complete protocol of the fast. What I found to be rather interesting was the fact, that the scripture started by saying:

"Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and He will say. Here I am" which is a clear indicator that God was not doing this before and whatever it was that they were doing wrong that caused it would have taken the protocol of this fast for him to not only hear them and their cry but to also respond to them.

My friend, please listen to God speaking to you through this article today. Have you been feeling as if God has forgotten you or he's just not listening to you? Do you feel as if everyone else prayers are being answered except yours? Have you been tossing to and fro in your mind the thought that you have been a Christian for so long and there has been no signs, wonders, miracles or the power of the Holy Spirit demonstrated in your life? Are there particular problems in your life that no matter how much you pray they refuse to move? Is your health failing, are you just right out confused about everything?

Well, this, as you know, is the last month of the year and if you have answered yes to any of the above questions. Then I must say to you, that you are in desperate need of a fast with a view of following the exact instructions provided above that I meticulously laid out for you according to scripture. I speak from much-accumulated experience, and I strongly advise you to complete a fast before 2015 if you do not want to repeat 2014.

Three day dry fast-to eliminate spiritual sickness

I have written quite a number of articles speaking specifically about spiritual sickness. At the same time I have received, and I am still receiving numerous emails as to how to combat and defeat such sickness.

In today's teaching on fasting, we will be focusing on the 3 days dry fast to eliminate spiritual sickness. Firstly, a three-day dry fast is a fast where one will not consume any liquids or food at all, there are no exceptions to this and it must be for 3 days or 72 hours. It is highly recommended that time is set aside specifically for this fast where there will be no form of distractions of any kind. Before this fast, scriptures concerning cleansing, purity, righteousness and the like should be written down in advance to be repeated during prayer time during the fast. I also strongly advise that the person engaging in such a fast MUST BE SIN FREE DURING THIS PERIOD! Meaning, there must be a confession of all sins particularly unforgiveness, sexual sins, etc. before the fast. Again, this will not work IF THERE IS UNCONFESSED SIN IN YOUR LIFE!

The reason for this specific fast is to eliminate the body of any and all points of contact that has become the source of the spiritual sickness that is now resident in the victim's body. For example, let's say an enemy has placed witchcraft contamination in some food that has been consumed by the victim. Of course, it will always look and appear as regular food. However, the spiritual items in that food which is not visible to the human eyes are spiritual contamination set to pollute the spirit of that person. Some of the physical symptoms the victim will experience would be unexplained swollen legs, various unexplained skin diseases such as lesions, rash, bumps, and lumps about the body. The victim will also experience strange things or objects crawling or moving throughout their body. They will also experience seeing things on their body that is not visible to others. The victim will be flooded with strange thoughts of fear and death, massive headaches and an overall feeling of sickness, that again cannot be explained, and no Doctor can identify its cause naturally. There are cases where the victim has had this evil in their system for so long that certain limbs either become disfigured or the victim becomes so sick that their appearance changes to something other than who that person use to look like. I personally know of cases where when such a person dies, with a distorted sickly appearance, the minute they pass away their features and appearance resume to who they looked like initially.

This is just evidence of the spirit of infirmity that had their spirit oppressed and in turn manifested in their physical appearance but again, once the body dies or the spirit is cast out everything returns to normal. I always use the story in Luke 13 as an example of when Jesus cast the "spirit of infirmity" out of the woman who was bent over for 18 years and immediately when Jesus cast the spirit out, the lady that was bent over for 18 years was able to stand up erect like everyone else.  Just for clarity, the human body becomes the host for the spirit of infirmity that becomes responsible for changing the appearance of the human host to a distorted figure, Matthew 12:43-45.

The interesting thing about this particular type of spiritual contamination is that whatever ingredients that this contamination was mixed with is what will fuel this evil once consumed by the victim. For example, let's say this spiritual contamination was placed in the victim's food of beans, rice, chicken, etc. Well, the water, salt, seasoning, butter and whatever else was used to mix this meal which included the spiritual contamination is all a part of that contamination.

Therefore, as long as the victim consumes anything in the future that is remotely related to the ingredients that made up the spiritual contamination their sickness will become worse. Of course, this will naturally sharply decrease the victim's quality of life and eventually kill the victim if not challenged by prayer and fasting. Thus, a dry fast is designed to starve the spiritual and physical contamination by not consuming anything for 3 days. Of course,  specific prayers laced with relevant scriptures must be violently prayed.

This explains why the victim has been praying for years to be delivered from their sickness and absolutely nothing changed for them. Some folks have given up on God simply because they did not understand the nature or root cause of their illness. Unfortunately, such spiritual challenges and many others like them will require prayer and fasting. Jesus himself said that this kind will only come out through prayer and fasting, Matthew 17:21. The reason why 3 days is required for such a fast because; the number 3 biblically speaking represents completion, perfection, etc. and if followed as prescribed you will see changes. The following prayer is to be recited 7 times every 12 hours of the fast until the fast has ended:

Heavenly Father, in the name of your son Jesus Christ, I confess all sins that I have committed against you in word, deed, thought and in action. Lord, I repent of all evil that I have done and, if there is any evil within me that I'm not aware of, I ask your forgiveness of those sins and pray that you cleanse me of all evil in Jesus name.

Lord, your word says that my body is the temple of the Lord and that I must also present my body as a living sacrifice holy and acceptable unto you. Lord, I am asking you during this fast in which I am surrendering my body as a living sacrifice unto you that you spiritually and physically remove all evil contamination that has been subtly deposited into my body that has caused unexplained sickness in my spirit and body.

Father, I firmly stand on your word that will bring about my healing. Lord, your word says, "Fear thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed; for I [am] thy God. I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness" Isaiah 41:10. Lord, I bind myself to your word that says, "Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou [art] my praise" Jeremiah 17:14. Father God, your word says that death and life is in the power of my tongue. Therefore I speak death to all spiritual and physical contamination in my body and, I command all residue of it to be passed out of me in the mighty name of your son Jesus Christ. Lord, you said that we should remind you of your word, therefore, I am reminding you of your word that says, "Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth" Jeremiah 33:6.

Father, your word says you will supply all my needs according to your riches in glory by Christ Jesus, so I am asking you to provide me with complete healing and deliverance to my spirit, soul, and body in the name of your son Jesus Christ. Lord, I am reminding you again of your word that says, no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and I have condemned all tongues that have risen up against me in judgment. Therefore, I am in a state of expectancy from you in the mighty name of your son Jesus Christ.

Lord, you said that you have seen my ways and you will heal me, you promised that you will lead me also and restore comfort unto my mourners and me, Isaiah 57:18. Finally, father, I am digging my faith deeper into the foundation of your word. Your word says, "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes, we are healed." Therefore, I decree and declare complete restoration of my spirit and body and whatever is in my system I send the fire of God against it and command it to be eliminated from my body in the name of Jesus Christ, which is the name above all names. Amen!

Your wisdom and knowledge is limited if you're not fasting


The New Testament quickly points out how to appear to others during fasting. In fact, fasting ought to be a personal event and should only be broadcast to others during our fasting times if it is someone who is fasting along with us regarding an agreement for a particular thing or person.

"When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show men they are fasting. I tell you the truth; they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your unseen Father; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you" Matthew 6:16-18.

Well, based on the above scripture, there is indeed a reward for a genuine fast. Nevertheless, your reward can be limited if you attempt to make your fasting period publicized. In fact, scripture clearly says that those who look distressed during their fasting have received their reward in full. Simply put, their reward would be the compliments and accolades given them during the broadcasting of their fast, as to how disciplined they are, how much they love the Lord, their commitment to the Lord, etc. However, as far as the actual result of fasting is concerned, such as breaking yokes, undoing heavy burdens, setting the oppressed free, etc., this will never be manifested in that person's life.

Instead, we are admonished to make fasting a private matter between ourselves and God. In fact, we are told to refresh our outward appearance and not even give any remote sign of fasting to others. Scripture goes on to say that God, who is invisible, will observe the fasting that is done in secret but will reward us openly. I am convinced, speaking from experience, that one of the rewards God gives us begins with a burst of wisdom and clarity.

Isaiah 58:10 says, "Then shall your light rise in the darkness, and your obscurity and gloom become like the noonday." Light in this text symbolizes knowledge and wisdom, while darkness indicates ignorance. So, according to scripture, a fast will cause your knowledge and wisdom to elevate in you, dispelling the ignorance that once overwhelmed you. In other words, be in expectation to know and learn things that you did not know before, either after or even during your fasting.

It didn't end there; it said your obscurity and gloom become like the noonday. The word obscurity is defined as something or someone that is not clear or plain, ambiguous, vague, or uncertain. Simply put, it needs to be clarified. Gloom, on the other hand, is defined as total or partial darkness dimness. Before I proceed any further, Isaiah, the prophet speaking to the people of God, suggests that a born-again Believer can be lacking in knowledge, confused, and, in the worst-case scenario, consumed by ignorance. However, he has simultaneously provided the remedy for the born-again believer who thinks they have it all together. That is to enter a genuine fast to stimulate, replenish, restore, or impart much-needed spiritual knowledge, wisdom, and understanding. Therefore, a fast will cause your once obscurity and gloom to be dissolved and your wisdom and understanding to come forth.

The most frightening and challenging part concerning all of this is that there are Christians who have never done a fast in their entire Christian walk, and even worse, some of them preach to you............. No matter how one views it, a fast should be a fundamental discipline in the life of every Christian if it is that Christian's intent to be current and, more importantly, relevant as it relates to the things of God and, indeed, the things of the spirit. True fasting is designed to advance you and provide breakthroughs that everyday prayer would not achieve.

I can assure you this: show me a Christian who does not partake in the exercise of fasting, and I will show you a confused, lost, and misguided believer with little if any Godly manifestations in their life.

Fasting will take your human spirit to another level

While others may have their issues with fasting, such as should fasting be a restriction of food and
water only or can fasting also be achieved by suspending a particular pleasure that they enjoy and spend that time with God.

Well, my teachings are limited to the biblical way of fasting. If a person desires to consider a fast not watching television for a month as a fast, then that is between them and their God. However, biblical fasting is to deprive the flesh of its endless pleasures and cravings, which literally weakens the flesh and, at the same time, detoxifying the body. From a biblical standpoint, this is done via the abstinence of food and water or, in some cases, restrictions on certain foods. As a result of fasting, the human spirit can now directly communicate with God uninterrupted by his flesh. In other words, your spirit is now ruling your flesh and not your flesh ruling your spirit.

As a reminder, the real you is your SPIRIT and not your flesh. Your flesh is what makes you legal on the earth. The human spirit is literally trapped in his physical body, which we also refer to as the flesh. Therefore, it will always be your human spirit that longs and desires with great hunger for intimacy with the Spirit of God. Still, as long as your spirit is trapped in your body, there will always be some type of interruption or distraction, or war between the two. This is why scripture says, " For the flesh lust against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would" Galatians 5:17

Therefore, fasting crucify your flesh or weakens it via the depriving of food and water so that the human spirit, without interference by its flesh, can dominate so that it can commune directly with God, his creator, on a higher level.  This is why you would come across scriptures such as, "The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak" Matthew 26:40-43.

Fasting should be viewed as a greater level of spiritual warfare. It is to access more significant revelations from God to reveal the mysteries on earth. Simultaneously, fasting is a clear indicator that your spiritual battle is against a greater demonic power. Here is the proof, In Matthew 17, there was a man whose son was possessed by a demon. The man took his son to Jesus' disciples, who failed to heal the boy. The man, in his frustration, took the boy to Jesus. Long story short, Jesus healed the boy. After everyone left, his disciples pulled him to the side and asked Jesus why was it that they could not deliver the boy of the devil that possessed him.

Jesus answered and said, "this kind will only go out by prayer and fasting," Matthew 17:21. The word kind is defined as a different order, genus, species; breed; set. In other words, this is not your regular demon. Instead, it is a greater power, which in this case and other cases will require PRAYER AND FASTING!

As many of you may or may not know. The disciples did not fast while Jesus was on the earth; here is the biblical proof."And the disciples of John and the Pharisees used to fast: they come and say unto him. Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast" Mark 2:18-19.

So the above passage of scripture clearly reveals how Believers of Jesus Christ can be limited in power and ultimately subdued by the enemy if they neglect prayer and fasting as a part of their Christian discipline. Contrary to popular opinion in this same chapter, even the Pharisees understood a fast to exercise that at minimum dismissed food. Also, in this same chapter. More importantly, in Mark 2:20, Jesus specifically said the following, "But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days."

The above verse dispels the notion or the belief of others that we are not required to fast. Again, the scripture said that when the bridegroom who is Jesus is gone, then the disciples not might but "SHALL" fast!

Well, this concludes my teachings on fasting, and it is my desire that you understood the importance of fasting and its protocols to operate correctly in it.

"My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee" Proverbs 3:1-2

Understanding the dreams you dream. Part. 12-Dream manipulation


Just like with any other area of our lives, the more we discover what Satan has been doing to secure his oppression over us, the craftier he becomes.

I am sure you must have ascertained by now that the Bible's wisdom causes one to see things from an entirely different perspective. More importantly, the Bible elevates our understanding of our variety of situations. In today's teaching, we are about to explore an area of dream interpretation that, if not carefully analyzed, it's easy to become confused by specific dreams. Often, the dreamer can be misled through a misinterpretation of their dreams.

Make no mistake, just like in your everyday life, the enemy shows up in your dreams only to execute three objectives, and they are to kill you, steal from you, and destroy you, according to John 10:10. However, he doesn't just arbitrarily attack you in these areas. The reality is, unknown to most believers, Satan and his cohorts are very much legalistic and attack with purpose in mind, aided by the spiritual laws. Meaning whenever he comes, he's coming fully equipped with biblical law. For example, the biblical or spiritual law dictates that the people of God are destroyed due to a lack of knowledge, Hosea 4:6. Destruction will always result from a lack of knowledge that otherwise would prevent Destruction.

The best way that I can illustrate this understanding is by the following example. Let's say someone has set a trap for you. The trap will only be as successful as your ignorance towards it. So the fact that you don't realize that there is a trap set for you will ultimately secure Destruction for you. On the other hand, if you are aware of the trap, you cannot be destroyed because you're aware of the trap. So, in essence, your knowing (which is knowledge) will protect and preserve your life, while you're not knowing (lack of knowledge) will destroy your life.

With the above being said, a friend told me he had a dream that confused him. He said he dreamt how his wife and himself were in what appeared to be a bedroom. He stood on one side of the bed while she stood on the other side. In the dream, he was filled with rage and anger and cursed his wife with profanity. In fact, he said he cursed his wife so much she didn't even have a chance to respond. Even though she so desperately wanted to. He further went on to say that he could recall the room being dark, and the dream ended. Upon waking, he said he felt very uneasy and did not know what to make of the dream.

Firstly, as I mentioned in the previous teaching, darkness in a dream indicates evil, ignorance, wickedness, etc. While a house would represent a person's life, different parts of that house speak to specific areas of that person's life. The bedroom points to personal and intimate areas of the dreamer's life. Here, the dream can become misleading if one does not consider spiritual laws. My friend said he was cursing his wife with great profanity to the extent his wife could not get a word in. In reality, my friend and his wife do not get along, so some would interpret this dream to mean that he may have unforgiveness in his heart toward his wife or that his dream was just an avenue to vent his frustration toward his wife.

The novice or one who is not mentally accompanied by spiritual laws and understands Satan and his agent's craftiness and manipulation of the law would find this dream very difficult to interpret. The dream's interpretation is that my friend was, in fact, cursing himself in the dream. Yes! Satan has manipulated him in the dream to curse his wife. How is this? According to the spiritual law, the law says, "For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh" Ephesians 5:31. "And they twain shall be one flesh: so they are no more twain, but one flesh" Mark 10:8. "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh" Genesis 2:24.

So, as you can see, according to spiritual laws, a husband and wife are indeed one: "The two shall become one." So the enemy, via this spiritual law unknowing to my friend, was able to cause my friend in his dream to curse his wife when the truth is to curse his wife is to really curse himself. The second law used in this dream was Death and life. This law says, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it (the Death or life that they speak) shall eat the fruit thereof, Proverbs 18:21.

So it is dreams like the above that if left unchallenged, meaning if the dream is not interpreted correctly and canceled, the dreamer can expect difficulties, losses, delays, missed opportunities, etc., in their life.

Dreaming of Houses

 DREAMING OF HOUSES

In today's teaching on dreams and their understanding, we will focus on dreams that involve houses. Dreaming of a home is a very common dream. A house in a dream usually represents someone's life. Even more interesting is that each part of the house speaks to a specific area of the dreamer's life.

Let's examine the scriptures to prove that a house represents a person and their life. The book of Matthew 12:43-44 reads, "When the unclean spirit is gone out of a person, he walks through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, 'I will return into my house from whence I came out,' and when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and garnished." In this scripture, the word "house" refers to the human host once inhabited by the unclean spirit. However, in another reference regarding houses, Acts 16:31, the word "house" is used as a symbol for a family.

So, as you have read, a house in a dream is symbolic of the dreamer's life or that of someone else. Former residences, such as your childhood home or a former apartment, symbolize delays, starting over, or inconvenient setbacks in life. A new house can represent a new life or a new way of life, and an old house usually speaks of things concerning the past, especially if you dream about a house you lived in when you were young. This undoubtedly symbolizes elements from your past that influence your life presently and prevent you from excelling or progressing.

Now that we have established that the house represents the person and their life let's explore the different areas of the house that specifically speak to specific regions of a person's life.

The bedroom is considered a private part of the house and always points to personal and/or intimate things. This part of the house is off-limits, particularly to those who do not live there. So if you dream of someone in your bedroom, it generally means someone is invading or intruding on your privacy. It can also mean someone trying to interfere in your relationship with your spouse or significant other. The bedroom can also represent a place of rest, especially if you're in bed. These dreams should be taken very seriously because they warn the dreamer of pending spiritual manifestations. It calls for much prayer to dismantle this impending evil.

Dreams involving bathrooms often carry a symbolic meaning of purification and the release of negative emotions or behaviors. Within the realm of dream interpretation, bathrooms can be seen as a representation of the cleansing process, both physically and mentally, where one can rid themselves of any unwanted residue or toxic matters.

A basement is a space underneath a home, often used for storage or as an additional living area. It can also symbolize hidden or discarded items, including sins such as unfaithfulness, emotional pain, and family secrets.

The living room and den are common areas within a home where families gather to engage in meaningful conversations about current events and personal matters. These spaces offer a sense of comfort and familiarity to those who seek a safe and welcoming environment in which to share their thoughts and feelings. Whether discussing world news or intimate family affairs, these spaces provide a platform for open and honest communication among loved ones.

Dreaming of a "front porch" typically refers to open and visible areas to the public, lacking a sense of privacy and often exposing the events or activities occurring within it, both present and future. This can encompass a range of settings and scenarios, from physical spaces such as a literal front porch to digital platforms and social media accounts that anyone can view, exposing personal content. In other cases, a front porch would represent things of the future, similar to a back porch, which would indicate stuff of the past.

A kitchen is a place for preparing, cooking, and storing food. To the dreamer, it symbolizes preparation for something. For those passionate about cooking, it represents a love for the craft. It could also mean studying and holding the word in one's heart.

Dreaming of a roof can represent covering and protecting the mind and thoughts. It is the same if you dream about the ceiling of a home; it speaks directly to the mind and opinions of the person. For instance, let's say you had a dream of mildew on your ceiling or blackbirds on your roof. This case speaks of evil thoughts attempting or invading your mind. Remember, the color black represents negative things.

When one dreams of a home's foundation, it can symbolize a variety of ancestral and family matters. These can include curses and blessings, depending on the specific details of the dream. For instance, snakes on the foundation may indicate a curse, while clear water may represent blessings. It is essential to carefully consider the details of the dream to gain a deeper understanding of the message it may be trying to convey.

Stairs in a house are significant because going up a staircase represents promotion or elevation, and going down a stair would mean the opposite, which would be a demotion.

If you dream about your or someone else's property, it would represent territory, dominion, and even ownership.

One must remember that the interpretation of dream symbols is often shaped by an individual's cultural background, occupation, way of life, and faith. As such, it is of utmost importance to depend exclusively on the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit when seeking to understand their meaning.
