CONFRONTING THE STRONGMAN III

Africans must be praying regularly against strong men. Whereas the advanced nations of the world build institutions, Africa builds strong men. That is why things are the way they are in Africa. Someone made a very deep statement that all African potentates are surrounded by sycophants who see to their benefit to always tell the man in power what they know he wants to hear. This was written many years ago. Everywhere you go you see the strong men in Africa and they keep getting stronger and stronger.

There is a spirit behind every strongman called the spirit of Nimrod. Nimrod was a strongman, a hunter, a bully, a tyrant, a terrible man. All these are characteristics of a strong man. He ended up building five empires including Assyria. Part of the characteristics of a strongman is empire building. A strongman is an oppressor. He kills, steals and destroys. Every strongman has the seals of Lucifer intact – seven seals of Lucifer which includes pride, arrogance.

These strongmen are arrogant and unteachable. They know everything! They are usually richer than their nations. They are strong, devilish, they have their altars soiled with human blood and evil sacrifices. The power base of every strongman is witchcraft, idolatry.

Other attributes of Lucifer include stealing, killing, destruction and idolatry. Wherever you find idolatry, you will find witchcraft according to the book of Deuteronomy 18:20. A lot of people out there are no longer human, they are complete principalities. Principalities are administrators of evil in an environment. Remember that the intention of the devil is to take control of the universe and handle it by himself. Where is God in democracy? That is why it is an aberration for men of God to leave their pulpit in pursuit of political office. There is spiritual alignment in the realm of the spirit. There is a law called the law of congregation of homogeneous species. That is what people refer to when they say birds of the same feather flock together. If you are found in the congregation of the ungodly, don’t pretend to be a priest because you are not. You have become a witch in the coven of darkness.

A lot of people do not know the holiness of God. True holiness is not – loving God and doing what pleases you. It is loving God and going out of your way to do what pleases him. It includes loving God, loving what he loves and hating what he hates. Some people may classify me as a hate preacher. As long as what I hate is what God hates, I am holy. When people fail to understand the true meaning of holiness they tend to rationalize nonsense. Everything that has happened to the Church in the negative supernatural happened as a result of lack of discernment; extending handshake to darkness.

Evil is an aggressive phenomenon but sometimes it puts on flesh to become a person. A time comes in the history of a nation when everything evil puts on flesh and indwells a person. When this happens, that person becomes a strongman. This is the worst thing that can happen to any nation. People will flock around him. He will have power, he will have influence and before long, people will enthrone him even when they know that something is wrong. That is what has produced every human disaster that happened in history.

Evil put on flesh in life of a man called Hitler, he became so strong and because he lived, fourteen million people died. Six million Jews perished just because one man lived! Are you ready to confront the strongman?

The rate at which people are cancelling everything that is righteous and promoting everything that is satanic in the world today is a clear indication that we are in the end times.

PRAY –

• Dear Heavenly Father, I ask that you make it impossible for me to align with what you hate in Jesus’ name, amen.
