The Other Side – Dealing with devils of new levels
Mark 4:35 – 5:1-20
once you make up your mind to move to higher levels in your walk with God, expect a storm; expect some manifestations.when Jesus wanted to go to the other side, a storm arose. The enemy does not want you to move one inch from where you are. Their program is to ensure that you are delayed, frustrated, stagnated and defeated.
According to mark 5
Vs 5 – the man went through self-inflicted pains. A lot of people are going through self-inflicted pains. Ask God to reveal the self-inflicted pains you went through last year to you. What it takes to deal with it is humility, honesty, repentance, renunciation, forgiveness. The Holy Spirit leads you only to the extent that you are submissive to His leading. Even Jesus said my sheep hear my voice and follow me.
This man’s world was a punctuated world; a world of affliction unlimited – doing one thing over and over again. Do things differently this year if you want to operate in the highest; put in place God habits. Let them be part of you on a daily basis. No one is a failure who has done his best. The excellent spirit does not walk with dishonesty or impurity. The Holy Spirit is the spirit of excellence; the spirit of grace. Impurity brings disgrace. The man was crying as a result of the pains of the cuts but he could not stop himself. A lot of people die not because it was time for them to die but because they killed themselves. They had formed habits that was killing them but which they couldn’t stop. Knowledge is very important.
Vs 6 – Jesus, the greatest game changer appeared on the scene. The mad man was wise enough; first he did not lack recognition. One of the greatest self-inflicted pains a lot of people go through in life is lack of recognition. What is lack of recognition? It can best be demonstrated by the attitudes of the thieves at the cross. One lacked recognition and railed at Jesus. But honesty and recognition brought deliverance to the other one. If you want your story to change, you must recognize the anointing because what you do not recognize, you cannot access.
Vs 10 – demons are intelligent and sometimes give people they possess some uncommon intelligence. They started negotiating their exit.
In spite of his condition, the man was honest, purposeful, had the right attitude, he was humble and he knew how to stretch; He cried out. There was something in him that was crying out for change. Note that legion is 6000 demons. Uncleanness attract demons. They asked to be cast into the swine. That is why you must not allow yourself to become an eagle or a lion. Clean up. Unclean spirits are destructive; they destroy destinies.
Jesus crossed over and met a new devil. For every new level, there is a new devil. Whenever you are crossing over to a new level, be prepared to deal with devils of the new level.
Specific Things Jesus dealt with: –
- Contrary winds; waves – they bring ripple effects.
- Ship full of dirty water – the powers that want to sink your ship will be utterly destroyed this year in Jesus Name.
- Sleep can become a weapon in the hands of the enemy. Whenever witches want to attack, they make their victims go into deep slumber. The spirit of slumber makes people to procrastinate. Fortune fears the daring! Get up and get things done in Jesus Name. It takes spiritual alertness to enter into higher levels. May you not slumber this year in Jesus Name.
- Fear- it is the greatest devil of the new level. It incapacitates, it kills initiative. Anywhere you have fear, faith disappears.
- Faithlessness – faith gives you boldness.
- Lack of knowledge – especially lack of knowledge of who Jesus is, what you have in Christ Jesus and what Jesus has done for you. For you to be comprehensively empowered, you must understand that your empowerment is through Christ.
- When the legion in the mad man left, he was completely transformed and he became an Evangelist. You must have your promotion established this year in Jesus Name. Amen!
