Who Owns Your Heart – You…Or God?

“I” don’t want to fall into the same sin, over and over and over again. So why do “I”? I tell myself that “I” hate it, “I” tell everyone else that “I” want to change, yet “I” fall back into it, again. “I” repent after “I” do it, “I” tell the Lord that “I” want it to be removed, “I”  promise to never do it again. But “I” do it, again and “I” find myself in the same position with the same poisoned mind and polluted heart. Why do “I” still have an attachment to it? Why do “I”  long for it, like “I” long for the Lord – can it be true that “I” want both the light and the darkness at the same time? Is it possible to love the Lord with all my heart and yet still search for certain parts of  “my old self”, those parts that “I” used to call my God.

There is no “I” in the true Spirit of God. In God there exists a comforting peace that “I” can’t create, or will myself into. But in me, “I” find all things to the contrary and they will always lead me astray – that is the promise and the reality of what “I” find, in the dark. Who am “I” to think that “I” can remove what “I” hate and what my Lord despises? How could “I”,  when deep down, in my flesh “I” desire both, for when “I” turn to me, “I” drop an anchor into my flesh and it takes a hold and so desperately wants, what is wrong. Is that what “I”  practice over and over, giving my heart to God only to take it back when I want? I call desire into action and it pollutes my heart. Didn’t my loving Father give me free will? Can’t “I” have it back, just for a minute of carnal pleasure, just for a minute of anger, just for an hour of deceit, just for half of a day in lust, just for an entire day of fear,  just for a weekend of delight? Is there any part of “me” that “I” can reclaim, for any part of my time left on this earth? “I” can and “I” will, because we are all sinners in heart, body and mind. But if  “I” continue to take back what is “not rightfully mine”, then I will never truly experience Christ.  Yes, we came from the Father, He made us from the earth, our flesh came from dust, and it will return to the dust, but our spirit is eternal, if we have accepted Christ as the one and only redeemer. In Christ we find the life that we have always been seeking.  The new life in Christ protects you from the flesh, if you completely turn away from the “I” in your life.

Has anybody ever given you something, and then they come back to take it away from you, because they have changed  their minds and they want “it” back? How about when someone promises to do something for you and they don’t do it? Well…that is exactly how God feels when you try and take back what you have promised to give to Him. The difference is, it was never yours to claim in the first place. Who are you, to think and pretend that you own, any part of your heart? That action of thinking and pretending always leads down the same path of despair and destruction. You must return your heart to its rightful owner, you must give up all your free will and give up the absurd notion that you have the freedom to choose parts of “I” … and still live a healthy life. For God will not be mocked and his son did not die on the cross, for any part of the “I” to be left for “you” as an option.

God Bless

Chris P.

“Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death. Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.” (James 1:12-18)

DISTINCTION BETWEEN SATAN AND EVIL SPIRITS

“The distinction between the workings of Satan as prince of demons, and his evil spirits, should specially be noted, so as to understand their methods at the present day; for to many the adversary is merely a tempter, whilst they little dream of his power as a deceiver (Rev. 12: 9), hinderer (1 Thess. 2: 18), murderer (John 8: 44), liar (John 8: 44), accuser (Rev. 12: 10), and a false angel of light; and still less of the hosts of spirits under his command, constantly besetting their path, bent upon deceiving, hindering, and prompting to sin. A vast host wholly given up to wickedness (Matt. 12: 43-45), delighting to do evil, to slay (Mark 5: 2-5), to deceive, to destroy (Mark 9: 20); and having access to men of every grade, prompting them to all kinds of wickedness, and satisfied only when success accompanies their wicked plans to ruin the children of men (Matt. 27: 3-5).

SATAN’S CHALLENGE OF CHRIST IN THE WILDERNESS

This distinction between Satan, the prince of the demons (Matt. 9: 34), and his legion of wicked spirits, is clearly recognized by Christ, and may be noted in many parts of the Gospels (Matt. 25: 41). We find Satan in person challenging the Lord in the wilderness temptation, and Christ answering him as a person, word for word, and thought for thought, until he retires, foiled by the keen recognition of his tactics, by the Son of God (Luke 4: 1-13).

We read of the Lord describing him as the “prince of the world” (John 14: 30); recognizing him as ruling over a kingdom (Matt. 12: 26); using imperative language to him as a person, saying; “Get thee hence”; while to the Jews He describes his character as “sinning from the beginning,” and being a “murderer,” and a “liar,” the “father of lies,” who “abode not in the truth” (John 8: 44) which once he held as a great archangel of God. He is called, also, “that wicked one” (1 John 3: 12, A.V.), the “Adversary,” and that “old serpent” (Rev. 12: 9).

In respect of his method of working, the Lord speaks of him as sowing “tares,” which are “sons of the evil one,” among the wheat–the “sons” of God (Matt. 13: 38, 39); thus revealing the Adversary as possessing the skill of a master mind, directing, with executive ability, his work as “prince of the world,” in the whole inhabited earth, and with power to place the men, who are called his “sons,” wherever he wills.

We read also, of Satan watching to snatch away the seed of the Word of God from all who hear it, this again indicating his executive power in the world- wide direction of his agents, whom the Lord describes as “fowls of the air”; in His own interpretation of the parable (Matt. 13: 3, 4, 13, 19; Mark 4: 3, 4, 14, 15; Luke 8: 5, 11, 12); plainly saying that He meant by these “fowls” the “evil one” (Gr. Poneros, Matt. 13: 19); “Satan” (Gr. Satana, Mark 4: 15); or “Devil” (Gr. Diabolus, Luke 8: 12); whom we know, from the general teaching of other parts of the Scriptures, does his work through the wicked spirits he has at his command; Satan himself not being omnipresent, although able to transpose himself with lightning velocity to any part of his world-wide dominions.” – Jessie Penn-Lewis; War On The Saints, Chapter 2

Dear God, through prayer we have come to know you better, through prayer, you have revealed your character to us and your heart and Spirit. Through prayer is the Bible opened – truly opened. Through prayer have you removed the veil of ignorance and the bedazzlement of Satan – to see him for who he really is. Through prayer have our hearts become aligned with yours. Through prayer; humble, honest prayer have vast armies of the Enemy been destroyed, strongholds torn down and deliverance won. Through prayer is your power and love and mercy unleashed through us. Help us Jesus, have mercy on us and help us to keep praying with you, in all things. Unceasingly. Amen.

BELIEVERS MAY RECEIVE EQUIPMENT TO DEAL WITH SATANIC POWERS

“The hour of need always brings the corresponding measure of power from God to meet that need. The Church of Christ must lay hold of the equipment of the apostolic period, for dealing with the influx of the evil spirit hosts among her members. That all believers may receive the equipment of the Holy Spirit, whereby the authority of Christ over the demon hosts of Satan is manifested, is proved not only by the instance of Philip the deacon in the Acts of the Apostles, but also by the writings of the “Fathers” in the early centuries of the Christian era, which show that the Christians of that time (1) recognized the existence of evil spirits, (2) that they influenced, deceived and possessed men, and (3) that Christ gave His followers authority over them through His Name. That this authority through the Name of Christ, wielded by the believer walking in living and vital union with Christ, is available for the servants of God at the close of the age, the Spirit of God is making known in many and diverse ways. God gives an object lesson, through a native Christian like Pastor Hsi,  in China, who acted upon the Word of God in simple faith, without the questioning caused by the mental difficulties of Western Christendom; or He awakens the Church in the West, as in the Revival in Wales, by an outpouring of the Spirit of God; which not only manifested the power of the Holy Spirit at work in the twentieth century, as in the days of Pentecost; but also unveiled the reality of Satanic powers in active opposition to God and His people, and the need among the Spirit-filled children of God, for equipment for dealing with them. Incidentally, too, the Revival in Wales threw light upon the Scripture records, showing that the highest points of God’s manifested power among men, is invariably the occasion for concurrent manifestations of the working of Satan. It was so when the Son of God came forth from the wilderness conflict with the prince of darkness, and found the hidden demons in many lives aroused to malignant activity, so that from all parts of Palestine crowds of victims came to the Man, before whom the possessing spirits trembled in impotent rage.

The awakened part of the Church of to-day, has now no doubt of the real existence of the spirit beings of evil, and that there is an organized monarchy of supernatural powers, set up in opposition to Christ, and His kingdom, bent upon the eternal ruin of every member of the human race; and these believers know that God is calling them to seek the fullest equipment obtainable for withstanding, and resisting these enemies of Christ and His Church.

In order to understand the working of the deceiver-prince of this power of the air, and become acute to discern his tactics, and his methods of deceiving men, such believers should search the Scriptures thoroughly, to obtain a knowledge of his character, and how spirits of evil are able to possess, and use the bodies of men.” – Jessie Penn-Lewis; War On The Saints, chapter 2

Dear God, wow!! Thank you for giving us such a gifted and humble teacher in this writer, Jessie Penn-Lewis. Thank you God for confirming what you showed us and what you provided for us in the Bible. Thank you God for removing the veil through Christ so that we can see the truth, and discern concurrent manifestations of the working of Satan when there is an outpouring of your Spirit. And thank you so much God for the truth in what she says!!! That this authority through the Name of Christ, wielded by the believer (us) walking in living and vital union with Christ, is available for the servants of God!!!! YES! YES! YES! Amen!

Descendant Of A wild Donkey!

Do you know how beautfiful God is? How long suffering He is? He knows what we are like – and yet is UNWAVERING in his determination to make us His sons and daughters. My DNA is stamped with Ishmaels’s rebellion – the father of the Arab tribe! And yet God went after Hagar – twice! An unchosen slave – and her son who God knew would be the ancestor of those who OPPOSE Him and his Son! And yet blessed them both!

Who on this planet could even come close to understanding the depth of God’s love and patience. Who?

He could have spared Himself and the world centuries of rebellion and disobediance and war by snuffing them out in that desert. But instead he chased after her into that desert and blessed her. He could have just let them die – the unchosen slave and her “wild donkey” son – but the angel said that God heard the boy’s voice and God Himself then showed her the well.

You see, the child he had chosen to become the ancestor of The One, was not chosen to be the leader of a superior race, he was chosen to be bring forth the descendant who would one day die on a cross to save that “wild donkey” and his descendants, as well as every single human being who puts his trust in Him, Jesus Christ.

Let’s be quiet today and think with our spiritual minds on the millions of moments and details that God has maneuvered through without overriding humanity’s free will to bring about this Plan Of Redemption. The more I think about it with my spirit, the less that I can speak – except to say, thank you God for your mercy and your love. Thank you for hearing our voice and for coming into the desert and showing us the well that has become rivers of living water pouring out of our hearts. Amen

“Jesus stood up and cried out, ‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, “Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water” (John 7:37)

Genesis: God and Hagar

Ch.16: v7 But the *angel of the *Lord found Hagar in the  desert. Hagar was near a well that gave water. That well was on the way to Shur. v8 The *angel said, ‘Hagar, Sarai’s maid, where have you come from? And  where are you going to?’ Hagar replied, ‘I am running away from my boss Sarai.’v9 The *angel of the *Lord said this to her. ‘Return  to your boss and obey her.’ v10 The *angel of the *Lord also said, ‘I  will give many *descendants to you. Nobody will be able to count them.’ v11 The *angel of the *Lord then said this to  Sarai. ‘You are now *pregnant and you will have a baby son. The  *Lord has heard that you are suffering. So you will name your son Ishmael. v12 Ishmael will be a man that is like a wild *donkey. He will oppose  everyone, and everyone will oppose him. He will always fight against his  relatives.’v13 Hagar called the *Lord, who spoke to her, this  name. ‘You are God, who sees me.’ She said, ‘Here I have seen God, who cares  about me.’ v14 That well is called Beer Lahai Roi. (Its name means ‘the  well of the Person who lives, who sees me’.) Hagar called it that because there,  God saw her. The well is between Kadesh and Bered. v15 Hagar had a baby  son for Abram. Abram named his son Ishmael. v16 Abram was 86 years old  when Hagar had Ishmael

Ch. 21 v14 So, early in the morning, Abraham gave bread to  Hagar. And he gave to her a bottle that someone had made out of skin. The bottle  had water in it. He put those onto her shoulder and he sent her off with the  child. She left. And she wandered in the desert near Beersheba. v15 When they had drunk all the water from the bottle,  she put her son under one of the bushes there. v16 She went and she sat  down by herself. She did not want to see her child die. So she sat a little  distance away, about as far as an *arrow goes. She sat there and she began to  cry loudly. v17 But God heard the boy’s voice. So the *angel of  God called from heaven. The *angel called to Hagar and he said this to her: ‘You  need not be upset, Hagar. Do not be afraid, because God has heard the boy’s  voice. He has heard the boy there where he is. v18 Go and get the boy up.  Hold him firmly with your hand. I will make him into a great nation.’ v19 Then God showed to her a well with water. She had  not seen the well before. So she went. And she took the bottle that someone had  made out of skin. She filled it with water and she gave a drink to the boy. v20 So God was with the boy. The boy grew up and he  lived in the desert. He became skilful with a bow and *arrows. v21 He  lived in the desert called Paran, and his mother chose an *Egyptian wife for  him. (Chapters 16 & 21: Genesis)

Thank you for the hundreds of e-mails and texts supporting this and for sharing your heart with me!!! Here is a  prayer today that came from one of my closest friends – the most solid Christian man I know, Chris P.

Lord,

Please equip me so that I can resist all temptation from evil. Enable me to be prepared before temptation, before I enter into my own thoughts, before the earth has its way with me. Before I accept the advice from the world, that I am in, but not a part of, so that I see the enemy’s tactics from the moment they start to manifest. Give me the strength to resist entertaining temptation for even a second, so that I can still turn to you while there is still time, so that I can endure it. Give me the passion that I need to have for your word. Help me to memorize your word so that it is in every fiber of my heart, so I can shout it out loud when I am awake and meditate on it when I sleep. Lord show me that to protect my heart and soul, I need you, desperately.

Lord – I do not want to give birth to my sin, because when I do it’s too late to turn back, and I fall without protection, back into the flesh. Father, I so long to be with you, but it is not my time yet. More than anything I want your will to be done, not mine. But often I want you to take away my suffering and my pain, more than I want your blessings. Lord – your glory is my only desire, so help me to find real believers, so that we can be an army of servants for your kingdom – Lord, you have said that if any two of us on earth agree about anything we ask for, it will be done for us – by you. You are the father of all good things, the alpha and the omega, I lay on my face and worship you my loving father and as I fear and love you my God – how sweet it is to know that you will conquer all that oppose you. Use me as you see fit my Lord, to open up the eyes and the hearts of those that are still immersed in the dark.

Your loving servant,

Chris

Amen!

“In the war upon the powers of darkness, prayer is the primary and mightiest weapon, both in aggressive war upon them and their works; in the deliverance of men from their power; and against them as a hierarchy of powers opposed to Christ and His Church.” Jessie Penn-Lewis

Dear God, 
Teach us how to pray. Reveal to us what to pray. Help us not to give up on prayer, not to listen to the words of the Enemy who says that some prayer goes unheard or unanswered by you. Give us the courage and willingness to simply pray at all times and in all things. Thank you Jesus that you are our prayer leader – you are our High Priest. Let every person reading this believe your prayer and be quickened by your living words:

The High Priestly Prayer

When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.

“I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you. For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me. I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours. All mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me.

I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify themin the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctifiedin truth.

“I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.  O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”

Amen.

CHAPTER 2.
The Satanic confederacy of wicked spirits.

A perspective view of the ages covered by the history in Bible records, shows that the rise and fall in spiritual power of the people of God, was marked by the recognition of the existence of the demoniacal hosts of evil. When the Church of God in the old and new dispensations was at the highest point of spiritual power, the leaders recognized, and drastically dealt with, the invisible forces of Satan; and when at the lowest they were ignored, or allowed to have free course among the people.

GOD LEGISLATING FOR DANGERS FROM EVIL SPIRITS

The reality of the existence of wicked spirits by whom Satan, their prince, carried out his work in the fallen world of men, cannot be more strongly proved, than by the fact that the statutes given by Jehovah to Moses in the fiery mount, embodied stringent measures for dealing with the attempts of evil spirit beings to find entry to the people of God. Moses was instructed by Jehovah to keep the camp of Israel free from their inroads, by the drastic penalty of death for all who had dealings with them. The very fact of Jehovah thus giving statutes in connection with such a subject, and the extreme penalty enforced for disobedience to His law, shows in itself (1) the existence of evil spirits, (2) their wickedness, (3) their ability to communicate with, and influence human beings, and (4) the necessity for uncompromising hostility to them, and their works. God would not legislate for dangers which had no real existence, nor would He command the extreme penalty of death, if the contact of the people with evil spirit beings of the unseen world, did not necessitate such drastic dealing.

The severity of the penalty obviously implies, also, that the leaders of Israel must have been given acute “discerning of spirits,” so sure and so clear, that they could have no doubt in deciding cases brought before them.

Whilst Moses and Joshua lived, and enforced the strong measures decreed by God to keep His people free from the inroads of Satanic power, Israel remained in allegiance to God, at the highest point of its history; but when these leaders died, the nation sank into darkness, brought about by evil spirit powers, drawing the people into idolatry and sin; the condition of the nation in after years, rising and falling (see Judges 2: 19, 1 Kings 14: 22-24; compare 2 Chron. 33: 2-5, 34: 2-7) into (1) allegiance to God, or (2) idolatrous worship of idols, and all the sins resulting from the substitution of the worship of Satan–which idolatry really meant–in the place of Jehovah.

When the new dispensation opens with the advent of Christ, we find Him–the God-Man–recognising the existence of the Satanic powers of evil, and manifesting uncompromising hostility toward them, and their works–Moses in the Old Testament, Christ in the New. Moses, the man who knew God face to face. Christ, the Only Begotten Son of the Father, sent from God to the world of men. Each recognizing the existence of Satan and the evil spirit beings; each drastically dealing with them as entering and possessing men, and each waging war against them, as actively opposed to God.

Taking a perspective view, from the time of Christ on throughout the early history of the Church, up to the giving of the Apocalypse, and the death of the Apostle John, the manifested power of God wrought (in varying degrees) among His people, and the leaders recognized and dealt with the spirits of evil–a period corresponding to the Mosaic period in the old dispensation.

THE CHURCH IN THE MIDDLE AGES

Then the forces of darkness gained, and, with intermittent intervals and exceptions, the Church of Christ sank down under their power, until, in the darkest hour, which we call the Middle Ages, all the sins having their rise through the deceptive workings of the evil spirits of Satan, were as rife as in the time of Moses, when he wrote by the command of God, “There shall not be found with thee . . one that useth divination, or that practiseth augury, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, or a charmer, or a consulter with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer” (Deut. 18: 10-11).

Now, at the close of the dispensation, and on the eve of the millennial age, the Church of Christ will again arise, and reach God’s purposed power, only when the leaders recognize, as Moses did in the Old Testament Church, and Christ and His apostles did in the New, the existence of evil spirit powers of darkness, and take towards them and their works, the same uncompromising attitude of hostility, and aggressive warfare.

THE CHURCH OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY

Why the Church in the twentieth century has not recognized the existence, and workings, of evil supernatural forces, can only be attributed to its low condition of spiritual life and power. Even at the present time, when the existence of evil spirits is recognized by the heathen, it is generally looked upon by the missionary as “superstition” and ignorance; whereas the ignorance is often on the part of the missionary, who is blinded by the prince of the power of the air to the revelation given in the Scriptures, concerning the Satanic powers.

The “ignorance” on the part of the heathen is in their propitiatory attitude to evil spirits, because of their ignorance of the gospel message of a Deliverer and a Saviour sent to “proclaim release to the captives” (Luke 4: 18), and Who, when He was on earth, went about healing all who were “oppressed by the devil” (Acts 10: 38), and sent His messengers to open the eyes of the bound ones, that they might “turn from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God” (Acts 26: 18).

If missionaries to the heathen recognized the existence of evil spirits, and that the darkness in heathen lands was caused by the prince of the power of the air (Eph. 2: 2; 4: 18 ; 1 John 5: 19; 2 Cor. 4: 4), and proclaimed to the heathen the message of deliverance from the evil hosts, they know so well to be real, and malignant, foes; as well as remission of sin, and victory over sin through the atoning sacrifice of Calvary; a vast change would come over the mission field in a few brief years.

But the Holy Spirit is already at work, opening the eyes of the people of God, and many of the leaders in the Church are beginning to recognize the real existence of Satanic powers, and are seeking to know how to discern their workings, and how to deal with them in the power of God. (Jessie Penn Lewis; War On The Saints, Chapter 2)

Dear God, thank you for opening our eyes so that we could turn from darkness to light, so that we could turn from the power of satan to you! Thank you that we did not settle for half truths, that you have given us a humble and obedient spirit to receive the gospel in its fullness. Help us to continue in this humble spirit and make us careful not to slip in conceit of our own knowledge and efforts. We seek to know how to discern the workings of evil spirits and how to deal with them in the power of God. We ask for this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
