Destroying the rule of Satan's power over your mind..

copywrite Johnette Moore

 

The word of God admonishes us to be TRANSFORMED by the renewing of our minds...

Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing THE WAY YOU THINK!!!  Then you will learn to KNOW God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:12 NLT

Principalities are mindsets governed by Powers (laws)... We must PULL DOWN these Principalities AND Powers by renewing our minds through obedience, with the word of God. We will then have "the mind of Christ” and obtain the promises in His word, once our thoughts (Mindsets) are governed by the laws of GOD.

Yes our youth lay emphasis on Money. Maybe the fact that our generation enforced in them that "LACK of money" was the reason why they had to do without so much. Our mindsets have been shaped by the spiritual laws governing our geographical locations and subsequently seen us as slave to a poverty mentality. Let us be transformed by the renewing of our own minds & we will become equipped to effect change in the mindsets of our youth.

Having our minds governed by the power of the laws of God's word will break the bond of poverty and see us walking in the fullness of the benefits of Kingdom living,  remembering that the battlefield is always in the mind and the victory is won when mindsets (principalities) are dethroned... hallelujah!

So often we are heard to say "we are fighting a losing battle," This being the case because the governing principalities of our mind have greater effect then our desire for victory.. Let us desire a mind change and we will see a power shift that will see us shifted from that off slave to master. God has given us the power to get wealth and He would that we should prosper and be in health even as our souls prosper. Let us therefore grab hold of the keys to the kingdom of God and allow Him to establish prosperity in our souls through the re-establishment of governing principalities and laws of influence.. Let us be active Kingdom Citizens with the sphere of our environment (the Kingdom of God) being the governing factor that will influence our thinking and the manifestation of Kingdom living here on this earth. GOD is revealing His word. Let us push past erroneous mind sets and take on the MIND of Christ through the word of God, for KINGDOM PURPOSE. Victory is ours!

We wonder why we in the body of Christ have so much word but very little power. The power lies in the principal laws that govern our thoughts and mindsets. Even though we are filling ourselves with the word, we struggle to UNDERSTAND and ENFORCE that same word in our lives through our existing mindsets, thoughts and understanding that has been erected in the deep recesses of our minds, shaped and formed by the governing territorial principalities that we have unconsciously submitted to by way of our being born into that perspective region..

Bearing this in mind, being “born again” should see us born into a new geographical region by way of the spirit of God, giving us new governing principal laws thus establishing fresh mindsets, and provoking victorious living.. Being born again into the KINGDOM of God gives us access to KINGDOM LIVING made possible by our coming under the rule of the governing principals of KINGDOM MINDSET. Let us grab onto this and soar like and eagle.  It is ours for the asking, however we must yield to the WORD, the SPIRIT, the PERSON OF GOD... that we might obtain the PROMISE.

It is the continuation of the kingdom of God that destroys the rule of Satan's powers of darkness and the thrones of his rule will diminish in exact proportion to the rule of the kingdom of God in any given geographical area.

It is the responsibility of the church to confront principalities and powers by establishing the Kingdom of God first in our own lives and then by helping others, and thus establishing a witness to the people of God's Kingdom. Ephesians 3:9-12, "And to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ; to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him."

The victorious Christian life is only available to those who are willing to engage the enemy. We must exercise the authority that we have been given, and if we do, victory is assured!

Scriptures:

Romans 12:12 NLT: Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing THE WAY YOU THINK!!!  Then you will learn to KNOW God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

Eph 6:12 NLT: For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

2 Corinthians 10:4 NLT:  We use God's mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments

Ephesians 3:9-12 (King James Version)

 ⁹And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

¹⁰To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

 ¹¹According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

 ¹²In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

FACING THE END-TIME CRISIS

GUEST WRITER: LENNARD COOMBS 

of Trinidad and Tobago..

Because of the seriousness of the times in which we live, as Paul says in Romans 13:12

The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness,
and let us put on the armour of light ....

As we prepare ourselves and others for the grand spectacular return of Our Lord in air, it would be well to consider the fact- a serious life & death fact- that the enemy is not going to lie down while the christian world breezes into the heavenly paradise Jesus has prepared for God's children, and from which he and his fallen

evil hordes were kicked out.
Here's what the apostle warns us of for the last days..

2 Thessalonians 2:3-12 (King James Version)

³Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition:
⁴Who opposeth and xalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

⁵Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

 ⁶And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

 ⁷For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

 ⁸And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

 ⁹Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

 ¹⁰And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

 ¹¹And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

¹²That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

It is clear that there will be a massive deception as millions will hail this false christ and arch-deceiver 

as the "long-looked for messiah" to come!  Daniel looking down to our day said the wise shall understand

and shall turn many to righteousness (Dan. 12: 10, 3)

The great issue is understanding and knowing Jesus for ourselves, which Jesus says is "life eternal (John17:3)

that as He leads us through His pure, unadulterated Word, the wise who have oil in their lamps will know the

counterfeit "christ" from the true Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

What has me in some heaviness, is the lack of seriousness and sobering meditation on the deep truths of

the Word the Lord has shown us in prophecy when there will be a time of trouble such as NEVER WAS.

Very sadly, millions will be deceived thinking Christ has come, simply because God will allow  a

"strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth,

but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2 Thess. 2: 11-12...

 ⁹Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

 ¹⁰And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. (2 Thess. 2: 9-10)

It is a serious issue and involves loving the truth, even prophecy, that saves lives, and sharing His love by

knowing Him on an intimate level. Thank God,Jesus has not returned yet, so many can study His Word and

make Him number one in their lives..

Knowlege is gain, Wisdom is power but OBEDIENT TRUST IS PARAMOUNT

by Johnette Moore
"Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life." 2 Corinthians 3:6

Yes God knows our hearts.. AND obedience is paramount..
Knowlege is gain, Wisdom is power but OBEDIENT TRUST IS PARAMOUNT.. Not by might or by power but by the Spirit of God..
God has given us the comforter by way of the presence of His Spirit. It is the Spirit of God who leads us into all truth by our submission. As He REVEALS HIS WORD to us By the Spirit of God the word becomes RHEMA.. IT COMES ALIVE.. and an "ALIVE WORD" will quicken the dead things as well as put to death those things in us that are emnity with God in our lives.
The world teaches us simply to gain knowledge and apply it..
As Kingdom Citizens, it goes deeper than merely ATTEMPTING, TO THE BEST OF "OUR OWN ABILITY" TO GATHER AND APPLY..IT IS ONLY THROUGH "YIELDED SUBMISSION" TO THE SPIRIT OF GOD.. THE ONE WHO GIVES LIFE TO THE WORD, that we are able to OVERCOME..
Without the SPIRIT there will be no Revelation.. Without the Spirit, there is no Power.. Without the Spirit.. Trust and Obedience will waver..

It is the Spirit of God who leads us into all truth.. Truth is gained in the mind, incubated in the heart and BIRTHED in the Spirit.. then made manifest in our daily living..

We are spirit beings and we live in a body.. we have a soul.. The things of this world are temporal but the things of the spirit are eternal.

Our striving to overcome by leaning to our own limited ability to understand and apply the Word of God will only frustrate and discourage us in this walk.. We must relinquish our rights to self and allow GOD .. BY HIS SPIRIT to take over..
Let us therefore cease to attempt to master Spiritual authority via Natural Ability.. We must LIVE IN THE SPIRIT.. for us to EXERCISE ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY OVER THE NATURAL..
When we insist on interpreting the scriptures according to human reasoning and common sense.. we will produce a GOSPEL OF PERVERSION that will serve to KILL and not to BUILD..

God has set before you an open door.. Revelations 3:8

by Johnette Moore

Has God opened your eyes to the mess you are in, and then made clear a way of escape, only for you to turn again and entangle yourself with the yoke of bondage?

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” Galatians 5:1

Before God opens a door ahead, He usually closes the one behind you... I would imagine that He does it this way to make it plain and clear that it is HE who has both closed one door and opened another.  Very often God will give you a glimpse of the door He is about to open while He is yet nudging you to come out of the place you are in so that He can shut the past behind you..

Placing greater importance on preserving what God has called you OUT OF, than you are placing on nurturing what He has called you INTO... will abort your destiny while disturbing the lives of others. Time will NOT stand still while you straddle the fence and suck your thumb. ~As one door closes another opens~ don’t get your foot caught in the closing door, trapping you and preventing  you from ever going through that door God is opening for you.

Unholy desire and inordinate affections for the unclean thing will cause one to die spiritually while that God given dream... that vision... that mandate from God, will become severely mangled in the wheel of destruction caused by your affinity with the past .. Do you want to see the promise land from the distance but never cross the Jordon and partake of the promise?

"Revelation 3:8 - "Behold, I have set before you an open door which no one can shut, because you have a little strength, and have kept My Word and have not denied My name."

Though the door is opened before you.. you will not go through it if you are refusing to leave the area where God is shutting the door. Get out or get trapped inside that closed place..

Being "NICE" is not godly character. Jesus called it as He saw it and moved on. He did not remain behind to pacify the sin thus becoming entangled in it Himself... NO! He identified it!  Spoke to it!  Then He MOVED ON!!! Why INSIST on remaining in that place of comfort to the flesh that is destroying the soul when God has graciously opened your eyes to the mess you are in???

Ignorance is bliss; bliss is fleeting and pampers flesh while causing the spirit to rot and decay. It is the FLESH that wants to stay behind and enjoy the forbidden fruit while the spirit is longing to move on and cultivate the fruit of the spirit within.

·         If we could only grasp the understanding that our disobedience renders such that our being disjointed causes the walls of the KINGDOM to be unstable.. It is our responsibility to repair our own segment of the breech by walking in ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE... not for our own sake alone... but for KINGDOM SAKE!!!

“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?” 2 Corinthians 6:14

PRAYER:

Dear God, please close all doors behind me that will hinder my going through that open door that you have set before me... that door of destiny and Kingdom purpose... For Your glory!! You are the only wise God! ...I TRUST YOU LORD! ONLY YOU! Selah!

Are you willing to go where Eagles go so u might comprehend and KNOW...

by Johnette M Moore

Unless you go where the Eagle has gone you will not see what the eagle can see and you will not understand the LANGUAGE the EAGLE will speak.. Before you can soar like the Eagle you must ENDURE the storm.. as does the EAGLE.. allowing the storm to ELEVATE YOU to the HEIGHT that the eagle has attained so you might COMPREHEND AND KNOW.. THE MIND OF THE EAGLE..

The Eagle mounts up with wings and confidently heads right into the storm.. keeping his eye on the sun (SON), so he never loses sight of the promise no matter how strong the storm is.. he is fixed, focused and DETERMINED that he WILL come through the storm.. He does not head through that storm on an even level but POSITIONS HIMSELF UP toward the sun (SON).. and come what may.. he keeps going till he finds himself ABOVE the storm..

Then he will perch on the highest mountain and survey the things below.. Now he has gained wisdom in the storm.. Now he is free to see clearly.. and know .... Now he can SOAR confidently.. effortlessly.. He simply spreads his wings and confidently TRUSTS that he will not fall ... WOW.. Can u fathom the peaceful assurance he must have to be thousands of miles high and just REST in mid air.. totally abandoning self.. relying on the height to protect him.. KNOWING that he is safe.. being renewed with strength in readiness to go THROUGH the next storm that will present itself.. Oh how I want to be Lord.. JUST LIKE AN EAGLE.. to the glory of God.. for HIS PURPOSE!

"But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired" Isaiah 40:31 Amplified
