God has an end game for what He is doing, and the Church better rest assured He will be the winner. So, all this pandering to immoral souls by all or any of those putting forth evil efforts written within scripture will be for naught. Our challenge as God’s children is to learn those truths from the Holy Spirit and the Word, which will reveal if pulpits present dynamics that are meant to appear to undermine the validity of truth concerning Jesus as the Christ, the Son of God.
The kingdom Jesus gave us the keys to in heaven arrived 2000 years ago, directly after His ascension. At this time, He instructed His remaining disciples to go to Jerusalem and wait for the Holy Spirit. Acts 1:4-14. God historically and biblically upholds this event as the beginning of the Church age. However, did Jesus’ disciples understand what was about to happen, and do we truly understand what has happened?
Acts 1:5-8 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
Was there an understanding of what they would be waiting for? According to the following verses, the answer is no. The disciples did not understand what was about to happen to them as the outpouring of the Holy Spirit was to occur.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
Jesus said the kingdom restoration they mention is for another time and season one under His Father’s power. They were looking for Israel to be a kingdom returned to its former glory and a Godly purpose. But the Father will use His power to bring such an event when He determines.
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
So, Jesus reminds them there is a purpose for their being in Jerusalem and waiting for the coming of the Holy Ghost: They will be witnesses by the power resulting from this event. Thus, not all kingdoms are inherently natural, but the kingdom God purposed is to be a spiritual stronghold against our enemy and any who would do his evil works.
Scripture refers to spiritual strongholds established by the one then called Lucifer and now called Satan or the devil. These are where evil demonic forces are established within the natural forces of this world and the Church. Jesus reveals specific keys needed according to His will, and this comes through revelation. Knowledge within the word of God revealed by the Spirit of Truth is needed to accomplish this loss and binding of whatever is on earth.
John 16:13-15 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. 14He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. 15All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Jesus said He would give the keys to the kingdom from heaven. And Believers will prohibit or permit this whatever on the earth and the atmosphere above it, where the devil, the prince of the power of the air, continues to influence humanity by the forces of spiritual darkness.
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
There you have it in just these few paragraphs of truth: believers, by the Holy Spirit, can see that God reveals the Church as inherently empowered. This shows it can sustain the spiritual activity necessary to deliver the devil a message:
Get out of Christ’s Church and stay out.
So, the paramount issue is why this God-powered activity isn’t occurring in most of Christ’s churches. Understand; I’m not saying this isn’t happening anywhere, but the overwhelming evidence is that it’s not active everywhere.
The level of demonic activity and acceptance of evil today reveals it is not a stance most churches are willing to engage in. Right now there is a staunch expectation that the new administration of the United States is going to clean up the corrupt efforts of the enemy, the devil. This is a mistake as the enemy is a spiritual being who’s efforts are of a spiritual nature though they affect most of the natural things going on.
The Church as revealed here; is the spiritual force that God has ordained to rid itself of the enemy’s efforts. However, the work to be done is under His power and authority and is revealed in the scriptures for our understanding by the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the dynamics of what is going on in churches are void of such power and authority resulting in the corrupt and evil events over the last 70 to 80 years in the United States.
One thing the enemy cannot overcome is the truth, as he has none in himself and thus, cannot accept it. Pulpits busily concerned about their appearance to their peers and not the appearance of a Church spiritually fortified with the truth is a result of an acceptance of today’s woke stature of society.
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
As mentioned, God has an end game occurring. Those who want to be on the winning side of it must get to those places where an effort is made to spiritually fortify the faith of all so that each fulfills their part in Christ’s overall efforts in taking down our enemy’s strongholds from ministries, pulpits, and religious sects, or denominations and ultimately those established in the world.
So, as you prepare for the ultimate in football games remember there is a much more important game – good and evil – being played out by God for humanity.
