Overseer Prophet Daniel Powell Sr. author of How to Live as Citizens of Heaven continued Thursday's Night Bible Teaching on The Wicked attacking the Faithful. If you have not, go checkout our latest Blog Post God Open Doors for the Faithful Church Part II (The Wicked Can Cause Faithful to Disappear)
The faithful are falling away because of what the enemy is doing.
Churches have not opened back up because the wicked have ministered to them. [Churches that have been told that they can open again but have not.]
Every day we should allow God to deliver us from something.
Every day is a day of deliverance. We have to be completely delivered from a wicked spirit.
The faithful church holds the vision concerning the will of God. The faithful church can call forth a blessing, and it manifests, can lay hands, and people are healed.
The wicked do not want the faithful church to see, because when we see, we see an open door that the Lord has set before us.
Opening up with Revelations 3:7-10
God gave John the revelation that He will test the world (the unfaithful) and those who dwell on the earth (the Faithful). But the Lord said He will keep us (the Faithful). He will keep the faithful church from the hour of trial. The hour of trial comes to test us. The wicked come to pull us out of God, but we must remember that God will never leave us nor forsake us. When the wicked pulls us out of God, we are allowing demons to teach us. The wicked should not be able to penetrate the heart of the Faithful. We cannot keep ourselves. When we try to, we are an open target for the devil.
The wicked are after our crown, and we are known by our crown. Every five-fold minister and member of the body of Christ wears a crown. Our crown is our faith! When the enemy takes our crown, we become like the world.
Through misconduct, one can lose their crown that they have once attained (our conduct must be holy and righteous)—the wicked leads us to misconduct.
We all are given a crown those who are faithful. A crown signifies royal authority given to victorious people in Christ Jesus. Our crown represents our victory in what we have overcome (the enemy wants to take this away). A crown is a reward for our victory. So, if the enemy takes our crown, we are no longer victorious.
The gems, emeralds, or jewels in a crown represents each area we have overcome and got the victory (sinning, lying, stealing, fasting, or gossiping). The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy our crowns.
"Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth" (Revelation 3:10 NKJV).
The wicked are only after the Faithful Church. The wicked are not after the Loveless, Persecuted, Compromising, Corrupt, Dead, or Lukewarm Church.
"Help, Lord, for the godly man ceases! For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men." (Psalm 12:1 NKJV)
The wicked cause the Faithful to disappear by what they say, not by what they do. None of us are faithful; the only One who is faithful is God.
1 Corinthians 1:9 tells us that God is faithful. Christ that is in us, is faithful. Demons add to and take away from the word of God. Only the truth can accomplish things in our life, which is God's word.
(2 Corinthians 1:18) shows us that it was God in the Apostles that caused them to be faithful. (1 Thessalonians 5:24) shows us that whenever we ask God to do something or pray in His will, He will do it, because He is always faithful to us.
"Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons...
(1 Timothy 4:1 NKJV)
If it does not sound right, it is not of God.
When the gates of hell prevail against us, we do not have and do not know Christ enough. The Holy Spirit ministers to us.
Expressly: means clearly, directly, on purpose, exactly When the Holy Spirit speaks to us, it is on purpose, because we all want to know our purpose. Paul was letting Timothy know that it was the Holy Spirit, who was speaking. Depart: means to stand away from failure to walk obediently to the word of God. Some will depart from the faith and still will be in the house of God. Heed: means to pay careful/close/full attention to, to respect, to mind, to listen. We cannot respect deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons. Faith: is complete trust in God, confidence in God Jehovah, the connecting power into the spiritual realm, which links us with God and makes Him tangible or reality to us. Deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons minister to us outside of the word of God. The wealth of the wicked is stored up in the spiritual realm, which is why the wicked do not want us to go through the spiritual door.
If we want anything done in our life, the faithful God will do it! When you listen, obey, and mind deceiving spirits, you believe something that is not true. A deceiving spirit will misguide you. Therefore, know where God wants you to be, and what God wants you to do. Deceiving spirits will ensnare you, fool you, and outwit you. They will also keep your mind in bondage and seduce you into doing things that you do not normally do. Doctrines of demons: the impact of satanic attacks, will influence you and cause you to go the wrong way and to depart from the faith and cause you to do the opposite from what God said to do. Whatever God told us to do, we must never stop doing it until we have completed that level or assignment as the faithful church. Never move on to the next level if your last level was incomplete. Demons try to make us move out of the will of God by doing this. We should always be accomplishing, having testimonies, and doing things in the Kingdom of God. When there are no accomplishments in our life, the wicked or a demon is teaching us. Scripture Readings:
Revelation 3:7-10 Psalms 12:1 1 Corinthians 1:9 2 Corinthians 1:18 1 Thessalonians 5:24 1 Timothy 4:1
