2024/2025 OPERATION 18-18 – (DEALING WITH WICKED SPIRITS I)

The Church is not a business concern neither is it a political party. That is why things in the Church are not done by appointment but by ordination. It is time for people to understand this.  It is God that calls. It is God that equips. Jesus sends. If you align with God, he will lead you and when he leads, you must follow his leadings. The moment you start doing your own thing, the Holy Spirit departs because he is a gentle spirit. The ministry may still be functioning, it can also run on auto pilot and the place may be full of crowd but it will be a crowd that is going nowhere. As a matter of fact, it is satan’s crowd.

The moment the Holy Spirit leaves, life ceases. The Holy Spirit is the spirit of life, the spirit of “chayah”, the spirit that quickens. He is the quickening spirit. That is the difference between a living Church and a dead Church. You must therefore be very careful not to structure the Holy Spirit out of the Church and still be thinking that God is there. The moment the Holy Spirit leaves, God is no longer in it. It is the spirit that leads you that will determine how you will end. It is the spirit that leads you that will determine where you will end. If it is not the Holy Spirit, the destination will not be heaven. It is only the Holy Spirit that can lead you to heaven. Many times we tend to go beyond limits and forget God.

“O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are ye so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?”

Galatians 3:1-3, KJV

Remember that this letter was written to the saints not to unbelievers. What Paul was addressing here is very deep. What is foolish is foolish, there is no better word to use to describe it. When addressing evil spirits you don’t do so by using nice words. I have been in active deliverance ministry for over three decades with definite fruits, to the glory of God.

Some people are carrying very terrible contrary spirits, those spirits must be addressed otherwise they don’t belong to the real Church of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. It is not a matter of crowd. After Jesus attracted crowd and started preaching the bride’s message, the crowd left. You must not sit under a Pastor who cannot rebuke you because open rebuke is better than secret love. In the Church we attended as we were growing up, it is common to see people crying and rolling on the floor after receiving the conviction of the Holy Spirit. Today, you no longer see that in the Church. Rather, when a message that addresses issues in their lives is preached, a lot of people murmur and decide to take their leave.

When Jesus was performing miracle of multiplication of bread and fish, the crowd followed him but as soon as he settled to teach the bride’s message, they took their leave. The bride’s message is not cheap. A lot of people do not wish to leave the lower things that they are holding on to, yet they want to make heaven.
