False prophets and antichrists

False prophets and antichrists have something in common with the workers of darkness.They both work for the kingdom of darkness and they steal. One works in the world and the other works in the Church.

False prophets and antichrists are tearing the Church down from the inside out by drawing people into their web of deceit.

“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that brought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways, by reason of the the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” (KJV)

They strip people of value through the use of hype and promises of success. The apostle Paul put it this way:

“And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with the excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of Spirit and of power: that your faith should not stand-in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 2:1-5 (KJV)

Workers of darkness

What’s unique about the workers of darkness is they drive the economies of the world. Satan is behind this purge of wealth. He wants the resources of the world into the hands of his stooges. National, state, regional, and city governments spend billions and billions of dollars fighting crime.

“The National Association for Shoplifting Prevention (NASP) found that shoplifting cost retailers about $13 every year, and the American taxpaying public a total of about $33.21 billion yearly, or about $75,000 every minute! For the average retailer, losses due to shoplifting average 1.7% of all gross sales.”

I live in a city where the car insurance rate is the highest in the nation because of car theft. According to money geek.com auto, “The average car insurance cost in Detroit is $5,471. This amount is about 284.1% more than the national average…”

In Michigan, it cost $35,573.00 a year to incarcerate a person. The total Michigan Department of Correction budget is around $2 billon.

Every year more and more monies are leaving out of our pockets into the hands of others to finance this broken system. It cost more to drive your car, heat your home, cook your food because someone made a decision to “exercised dominion” to take something from somebody else.

So what is the connection between workers of darkness, false prophets and antichrists? They steal!

Jesus said, “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10 (KJV)

How do we take back what has been stolen through fraud and deceit? Jesus said the best way to stop a thief is by watching and being ready

“And know this, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not suffered his house to be broken through. Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.” Luke 12:39-40 (KJV)

Our warfare is not with flesh and blood but with unseen forces in dark places, Ephesians 6:10. The prince of the power of culture is working in and through people to advance his agenda, Ephesians 2:2-3

“Men do not despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy his soul when he is hungry. But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.” Proverbs 6:30-31

We can legally demand the enemy based on scripture through faith to give back and restore all that has been stolen from us through fraud and deceit based on sevenfold return.

Our calling is to be good stewards of the resources God has put in our hands, to make those resources work for the glory of God! What’s in your hands?

Building Trust

The TikTok video below is in my opinion one of the best presentations on team building. I’ve been on many ministry teams, who have set out to do great things for the kingdom of God but we always ended up crashing into a brick wall. The last organization that I gave 22 years of life ended up being lead by toxic leadership. Im at that stage of my life where I want to work with people who are sold out for the cause of Jesus Christ! Seal Team 6 is one of the highest performing elite military organizations in the world.

I imagine that you have to not only work with people you trust with your life but also you must be somebody who will not throw your weapon down and run off the battle field. You must have high energy, that is, the ability to not give into offense but to stay focused, committed and not easily distracted.

There is also another characteristic that is crucial to becoming a soldier in the work of the Lord. Can you handle pressure? Can you maintain your love walk in the face of criticism?

Know those who labor among you! 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13 (KJV)

The god of this world

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: in whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 (KJV)

The apostle Paul calls Satan the god of this world. Satan is not the god of the physical planet called earth but he is a god to those who obey him.

Jesus said,

“I have given them thy word, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil . They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.” John 17:14-16 (KJV)

My biggest battles have been with the systems of this world. It’s political, economic and social systems. A good part of my life has been spent in debt to credits cards, personal loans, car notes, house note, and insurance bills. Right now, my car insurance is $340.00 a month because I live in a city that demands its drivers to carry unlimited liability. The car theft is high and so all the residence have to pay extra money to cover the losses of the insurance companies.

The world’s system loves to classified and place people into categories based on one’s net worth. They assign numbers to every individual such as social security number, credit score, drivers license numbers, and bank account numbers. These numbers are used for the purpose of control and manipulation.

I can say as of April 2021, I am debt free. My journey has been one of breaking the stronghold of the enemy out of my life. I got into debt because I didn’t know that there was a choice to do anything else. I listened to the voice of the world tell me there wasn’t much hope for my future because of the color of my skin. I was told who to vote for, who to follow, how to think about racial injustice. The world was programmed to think in a certain way which put people at a disadvantage.

I came into 2020 $11,000 in mortgage debt. By September of that year, my mortgage was paid in full ahead of time. I came into 2021 with one debt left; $10,000 dollars in credit card debt. By April of 2021, by god’s grace, my credit card balance was paid in full.

We are in the world but not of it. We don’t have to be limited by social security benefits. We let the world tell us how to think about provision. It’s time to break that yoke!

“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.” Colossians 1:12-13 (KJV)

A new covenant

The nations came into the covenant promises through the ministry of the apostles. The Gentiles nations did not have the benefit of 4000 years of walking with God in covenant. When I got saved, I knew absolutely nothing about covenant, inheritance, blood sacrifice, priesthood and yet every one of those things figured strongly into my salvation.

When Jesus told his disciples, don’t be like the Gentiles (Matthew 6:32), he was talking to people who knew and was taught the covenant from birth. They were taught about how God sustained their forefathers in the wilderness for forty years. As a Gentile, those things were a foreign concept to me.

Jesus said to go teach all nations

“And Jesus came unto them and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: TEACHING THEM to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20 (KJV)

We have been delivered from the power of darkness. We are in the world but not of it.

“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separated, saith the Lord, and though not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, and I will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.” 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 (KJV)

People are yoking ourselves to the world through

-Fellowship

-Communion

-Concord

-Agreement

This yoking of people together comes through binding contracts. Some contracts are necessary others are for convenience.

God says, be separated from them. Come out of them and don’t touch the unclean thing. In Luke 16:9 & 11, Jesus calls mammon unrighteousness. He said, they that trust in it, it is hard for them to get into the kingdom of God (Mark 10:24).

We have to do the hard work of entering into his rest (Hebrews 4:11); the hard work of seeking the kingdom of God and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33).

The judgment is coming

Come OUT!

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4 (KJV)

In Revelation 18:

-They shall bewail her, (verse 19)

-Her judgment will come in one hour, (verse 10)

-For no one buys their merchandise anymore, (verse 11)

-The things you desired, lusted for are departed from you, (verse 14)

-For great wealth will vanish in one hour, (verse 17)

From my notes

I found this note in my writings:

“There is coming a time when men shall go into deep depression because they cannot make money. They cannot get enough of it. Then the revelation will become golden, ‘God provide seed to sowers, bread for our food. He multiplies my seed sower and he increases the fruit of our righteousness. They will see Isaiah 55:8-13 come to pass!”

“You are bought with a price; be not servants to men.” 1 Corinthians 7:23

“Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift” 2 Corinthians 9:15. Compare Isaiah 55:18-13 to 2 Corinthians 9:7-13, you clearly see that God rewards those who trust in him!

The god of this world blinds the minds of them who do not believe. What is in your hands?
