ADDRESSING THE ACCUSER AND ANSWERING THE ATTACK

THE IDEA THAT "BIG BROTHER" IS WATCHING US IS NOTHING NEW. IN THIS ERA OF CAMERAS ALL AROUND US THERE ARE 24-HOUR SURVEILLANCE, IDENTITY AND SECURITY MONITORING PROPTOCOLS IN EFFECT. ALMOST ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING WE DO CAN BE SCRUTINIZED and analyzed. THIS INCLUDES OUR INTERNET SURFING HABITS, OUR PHONE CONVERSATIONS AND OUR PURCHASING PREFERENCES. ANY AND ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE SUBJECT TO BEING INTERCEPTED AND INSPECTED AT SOME POINT. THIS EVIDENCE CAN BE USED WITHOUT OUR KNOWLEDGE OR CONSENT. INFERENCES AND CONCLUSIONS CAN BE DRAN FROM THEM THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE TRUE. HOWEVER, BEFORE ANY OF OUR MODERN METHODS OF MONITORING EVER EXISTED, WE ALL HAVE BEEN ENGAGED IN WATCHING ONE ANOTHER, MAKING ASSUMPTIONS AND DRAWING CONCLUSION BASED ON WHAT WE SEE AND BELIEVE, ACCORDING TO OUR COGNITIVE SET. THE BIBLE EXPLAINS HOW WE CAN CREATE LAWS UNTO OURSELVES THROUGH OUR CONSCIENCE WHEREIN we are actively ACCUSING OR EXCUSING ONE ANOTHER. THIS IS AN AGE-OLD PRACTICE NOW AMPLIFIED THROUGH THE INTERNET AND SOCIAL MEDIA. MOST PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THAT THE AFFAIRS OF MEN HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AND CONTINUE TO BE AFFECTED, DIRECTED AND INFLUENCED BY SPIRITS OCCUPYING OUR REALM. WHETHER WE EMBRACE MYTHOLOGY OR BELIEVE IN THE BIBLICAL ACCOUNT IN THE FIRST BOOK OF JOB; ITS PLAIN TO SEE THAT THE CONCEPT OF A "BIG BROTHER" OR THE INVOLVEMENT OF OTHER ENTITIES IN OUR AFFAIRS IS NOT SO FAR-FETCHED! ANYONE UNAWARE OF THE WAR MUST BE WARNED!

here is why we wage this war

If there are any questions as to why we continue pounding these types of topics and consistently speaking about spirits, here's the answer. Having been victimized by these entities in the past and being keenly aware of their activity in the present; by the grace of GOD, we have embraced this calling and endeavor as our future. It is more than a mission of enlightenment; it is also a personal spiritual vendetta. Anyone who reads the "About Me" page should understand why. Since then, more and more attacks have been waged against us and our family. We are resolute. Though the adversary knocks us down six times, we are prepared to rise seven. The most important lesson learned during this journey is that our battle and vendetta is not against people, it is against powers! The people are the victims of the powers that persuade them to indulge in their iniquities. People are defining themselves by the things they temporarily possess. Today it is easy to justify hatred towards our fellow man. When did we become enemies? What was the cause? As noted in previous posts, we anticipate that the present climate of intolerance and violence will wax worse and worse. The zeitgeist of today is gradually normalized anger, anarchy and avarice. The vitriol in much of the verbal exchanges between our leaders is infectious. Their dialogue projects a tone in which their spirit or "attitude of behavior," is adopted among the proletariat. The practice and proliferation of profanity among people today serves as a sign of the lack of constraint and control we have over ourselves. "Swearing like a sailor" is no longer attributed to the Navy. People are increasingly feeling entitled to even the score, execute justice and seek revenge. Retaliation is wining out over reconciliation. This vengeful spirit (attitude of behavior) gives anyone the right to payback and feel righteous as they riot. The overall effect spawns more division through taking sides. Different expressions of evil may appear to be at odds with one another, but they are not. These spirits are not divided in their mission. Only the people and personalities they use get divided and conquered. Sometimes the kingdom we are at war against may appear to be in contradiction and at odds. This is simply an illusion. There is no "Left" or "Right" as far as evil is concerned. The powers of darkness are all united in their goal to divide us!

THE PATTERN, THE PLAN AND THE PROVOCATION

The design, intent and purpose for mankind was to be fruitful, multiply, replenish and subdue the planet. The setup was perfect, but there were other "beings" that were opposed to it. Mankind became the subject of their enmity. As a result, humanity was attacked. As an enemy does, if they cannot get to the object of their angst, they will go after anybody or anything that is loved by them. This is how the effort to prevent mankind from fulfilling God's goal began. Doing so was meant to frustrate the plan of God. Unbeknownst by these entities was that God had already factored in the rebellion of the past into the future. Mankind is being assaulted from all sides in multiple ways. Our dependence on and relationship with God is what is essentially under attack.

A BREAK DOWN OF THE PLAYERS ON THE BATTLEFIELD

TOO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT THE DEVIL'S APPEARANCE IS SINISTER. THAT'S ONE OF SATAN'S BIGGEST DECEPTION. LUCIFER'S APPEAL AND APPEARANCE TOWARDS US IS SEDUCTIVELY SUBTLE. THE "GOD" OF THIS WORLD HAS A SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM OPERATES BY BLINDING PEOPLES MINDS TO A GLORIOUS LIGHT. ITS ALMOST AS IF MOST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ARE WEARING POLARIZED GLASSES OUTSIDE IN THE SUNSHINE AND THINK THAT IT'S CLOUDY. IT USUALLY STARTS WITH A WHISPER, A CONTRARY QUESTIONING THOUGHT OR A DOUBT. THE BIBLE IS FILLED WITH INSTANCES OF HOW THE ACCUSER WORKS. WHETHER ITS GOD, ONE ANOTHER OR OURSELVES THE TACTIC REMAINS THE SAME. WHEN WE BEGIN TO CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE CHAIN OF REASONING FOR CRITICISM, DISOBEDIENCE AND EMNITY WE WILL FIND "THE ACCUSER" IN THE MIDST. THE DISGUISES USED BY THE ENEMY AND HIS MINOINS HAVE SOME resembleNCE THE APPEARANCE AND ATTIRE OF THE DHILDREN OF LIGHT! WITHOUT KNOWING THE TRUTH SOMETIMES ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE. THIS IS WHY WE MUST WALK BY Faith NOT BY SIGHT. INNUNEDOS AND ACCUSATIONS WILL CONTIUE TO FILL BOTH MAINSTREAM AND SOCIAL MEDIA. WE ARE BEING ACCUSED TO GOD (CHALLENGED), ACCUSSED BY ONE ANOTHER (BLAMED) AND ACCUSING OUSELVES (GUILT).

HATERS? MY NAME IS HATE!

HEARING THE VOICES AND LISTENING TO THEIR MESSAGES

Each and every one of us engages in a discourse that resembles an ongoing conversation in our heads. Sometimes there's an internal debate going on. Most of us consciously participate in the dialogue but are unaware of its significance. The discipline of "critical thinking" helps us navigate through many of the thoughts we are being bombarded with. However, there are spirits that must be commanded rather than reasoned with. There are some thoughts that should simply be considered unacceptable. Just having them indicates that somewhere within in all of our interactions that thought birthed within or infiltrated our mind. The "voices" we engage with represent psychological spiritual energy. This creates the foundational structure formed by our thoughts and intentions. These contemplations, musings, ponderings and ruminations are more than just mental gymnastics or psychological ping-pong. We may not always be consciously aware of the manifestations in our behaviors that emerge in subtle forms. THOUGHTS ARE NOT JUST PICTURES OF THINGS, THOUGHTS HAVE FORM. THOUGHTS ARE THINGS! THOUGHTS EXIST IN THE SENSE THAT ALTHOUGH THEY CAN'T BE SEEN, THOUGHTS CAN BE SAID, SHARED, EXPOSED AND FELT. THE "EXPRESSION OF A THOUGHT" USUALLY INVOLVES IT MULTIPLYING AND TRANSITIONING FROM ONE "FORM" TO ANOTHER. THOUGHT LIVES. THE "SUBSTANCE" OF THOUGHT CARRIES SPIRIT! Does not our conscience speak to us when we do or fail to do things that we feel bad about or regret. Is not guilt a part of that process? Are these the same voices in our head that give us a sense of pride in our accomplishments? People hearing voices and/or being compelled to do things by unknown entities is as common as the Biblical depiction of Adam and Eve's temptation and fall in the Garden of Eden. Why are we so surprised when people have a mind to commit atrocities and perform heinous acts of violence? The zeitgeist, the spirit of the time, has normalized animosity. Is it any wonder that the world seems to be suffering wrath as a result of the way we treat one another and the planet. 

READING THROUGH THE RHETORIC

​One of the tactics used by our adversary is diversion and distraction. Like a magician, their sleight of hand hides what really is happening and fools us into buying into the illusion. God has appointed certain of us specifically designated tell the truths that expose the lies. “That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;” Our battle is not against one another or our fellow man. It is against the prince of the power of the air that manipulates the minds of the masses. It's difficult to filter the reality from the rhetoric, but we must!
Rhetoric is an art of persuasion utilizing grammar and logic. It is a tried-and-true ancient art of discourse. Rhetoric works through informing, persuading, or motivating specific groups or audiences by appealing to their thought process in an influential way. We continue hearing the rhetoric and seeing the posturing on all sides. Isn't now the time to hold those in office accountable. Equal, or at a minimum, equitable justice and fairness should be weighed out impartially. A false balance is not good. Unequal weights cannot balance a barbell. It is an abomination. How can we stand against abortion and turn a blind eye to genocide. Our job does not end after election day it just begins. Our vote represents our voice and that's why understanding the power of words, lies and rhetoric is so important. Politicians tend to speak through an enigma wrapped in a conundrum. Why do we have to try to read between the (lies) lines? Is the reason because the majority of us generally engage in rhetoric every day without being aware of it? Rhetoric is generally spoken. It's harder to write rhetoric because the "words of rhetoric's" double meanings cannot hold their own on paper. The scrutiny of examining written words usually exposes them for what they are if we want to see it. Words are the substance of truth, lies and rhetoric.​ Study the lies and they will tell us more of them. Study the truth and we'll recognize the lies as they appear.

The devil deceives us so that he can accuse us. From the time we are born until we die there is a battle being waged for the destiny of our souls. The devil knows that we eternal our souls based on how we live in this life. The system we've all defaulted to, is designed by the "god of this world." The advertiser, talker, tempter encourages us to lie and believe in "The Lie." If the devil is in the details, there will always be a spin. "He" spins doctrines, perspectives, standards and teachings into thought that contains logic mixed with dissent. The very idea that science and technology will fix things and provide solutions for ALL of our problems is one of the underlying themes. This implies that there is no need to believe in or depend on God. How many of us feel rushed as we transition from task to task? Why does it seem that everyone is in a hurry? There is a "spirit of anxiety" and impatience that is in operation across society today. We drive competitively, rush to work during rush hour, and do everything we can to avoid long lines. In many instances patience has gone out the window. Even shopping can become a stressful event in spite of all of the technological breakthroughs with scanning, barcodes and self-checkout. More efficiency seems to make us less patient. Instant gratification demands perfection without delay. This type of energy now permeates society and aggravates our expectations. Although no one is perfect, we all are decedents of perfection. Consider the fact that a perfect God created a perfect environment (world) for a perfectly created man, perfectly. WE WERE MADE PERFECTLY, NOT BUILT TO BREAK! Perfect is without defect or flaw. So, it stands to reason that the only possible change perfect can transition to is imperfection. Isn't that what happened? For Satan to entice Adam and Eve in a perfect environment he had to offer them something that seemed greater but was not. Satan deceived Adam and Eve based on the fabrication that they were not already perfect and whole. The serpent was just one of the gardens inhabitants. Satan had no Eden authority. He tricked Adam and Eve into thinking that he knew something they didn't by talking with them about the trees in the garden. Satan gained a foothold in the affairs of humanity through the "perfection lie!" "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat." Imperfection is easy, just make any little change to something perfect! We can now see how easy it was for man to corrupt his perfect relationship and status with God. It is man who first brought imperfection to God in the form of disobedience. The enemy of all mankind is executing a plan that has been effective since the beginning of creation and time. as long as he can keep us divided and fighting against one another and among ourselves, we will not focus on engaging him. Whenever a heinous event or mass shooting occurs investigators look for a motive. This psychological approach seeks to find the reason for a behavior primarily from natural means. Motive deals with the development and expression of thought. We are more concerned with the cause that allows and births thinking that results in such behavior. We know that the prince of the power of the air is the cause. This spirit is the "attitude of behavior" that is at work in a world that denies and disobeys God.  

THE SET-UP AND HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS

THE COUNTERATTACK!

The weapons of our warfare are not carnal. Neither do they consist of man-made materials such as bombs, bullets, chemicals, contaminates, explosives, germs, knives, missiles or data. Oddly enough many believers and church goers are not well versed in the use of spiritual weaponry. It's easier to talk the talk than to walk the walk. The truth of the matter is that most believers abide in a silently defensive stance. Truth is being adulterated, diluted and watered down to the point that it is hard to decipher clearly. Truth is one of the believers' primary weapons for fighting against the adversary. Truth is NOT defined by news. Truth is NOT defined by scientific discoveries or technological advancements. Truth must be defined by what it does. The power of truth is both educating and liberating. Reality can only be deciphered correctly through the lens of truth. So, what exactly is truth? Two of the main components of truth are fact and reality. Truth has spiritual aspects to it that can be revealed, taught or uncovered by study. The revelation of truth also results in the exposure of lies. This makes truth unpopular when our beliefs are not aligned with it. When truth finds us and we reject it, we deny the sin it exposes. The truth cannot enlighten us if we turn the truth of God into a lie! Jesus urged those who believed on him to continue in his word so that they would know the truth and the truth would make them free. There are no versions of truth.

Truth alone is normally enough of a weapon to combat most forces of evil. However, our enemy has managed to corrupt the "truth of God" so much so that many believe the truth to be a lie. A lying wonder is a believable encapsulation of deceit. The strong delusion mankind is under comes from the cumulative effect of embracing images and the propaganda it represents. Truth that has been defaced now needs another face and image of its purity. The presentation and the presenter need to represent its honesty and validity. The truth can hurt, and many times people will search for a way around it. If they cannot find a flaw in the truth they will focus on a flaw in us. The light of truth can easily be obscured by the darkness of suspicion. We are the light of the world as Jesus said. The "presentation" of truth is almost as important as the truth itself. The "presenter" is almost as important as the "presentation." This is why the "Breastplate of Righteousness" is imperative. Although we are flawed and imperfect people, we must walk humbly while keeping unspotted by the world and its affairs. For this cause, popular television megachurch preachers should never compromise their image or reputation in any way. Abstaining from even the very appearance of evil is a mandate that must be followed. Let's put it plainly. A preacher in the company and presence of businessmen, entertainers and politicians is out of place! We are commanded to come out from among the fray and be separate. Truth can and will stand on its own regardless, but we can only hinder it when we walk in the darkness. The devil will use every tactic available to get the righteous to fall and flaw themselves externally and internally. Consider the story of King Uzziah. His reign ended badly due simply to pride. 

In addition to maintaining our posture and taking a stand, we must be prepared! Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance. As a believer, everywhere we go and everything we do involves representing what we believe in. Wherever we travel the footwear that is shod on our feet advertises the sponsor we represent. It's not Nike or Reebok; it's the preparation of the Gospel of Peace while the world is at war.

Without faith in the truth, that "it" is true even if told otherwise, the attacks upon "it" can overwhelm us. In reality any direct attacks on truth are indirect attacks on us! Standing for something without compromising anything requires thick skin and a strong shield of steadfast determination. Faith shields us from many of the fatal flaws we possess and attacks we may not see. The sucker punches thrown by the adversary have nothing to do with fair play. Faith is mandatory, and without it we can become ambulatory. There are too many of us on the sidelines licking our wounds and bedridden. Faith can pick us up when we embrace it while keeping us from further harm.

Our heads must be protected as we fight. Spiritual attacks always involve the mind. Knowing truth is not enough. Living, practicing and proving the faith requires the ability to wield the truth of the word of God. This is no easy feat. The "word" misused or abused can easily misrepresent God's gracious forgiveness, love, mercy and wrath. There is a prayerful attitude that must be maintained to deliver God's message in the spirit of love as we should, even in the midst of the battle.

YES, IT'S A BATTLE.
YES, IT'S A FIGHT.
MORE THAN THE DIFFERENCE
OF WRONG VERSUS RIGHT.

IT'S A WAR OF ATTRITION
FOR A WORTHWHILE CAUSE
IT'S A PATH TO PERFECTION
IN THE MIDST OF OUR FLAWS.

IT'S A GUARANTEED WIN
IF WE STAY ON THE COURSE
AND THE BATTLE IS WON
​BY THE BLOOD AND THE CROSS.
