Hebrews 3:1-6,
Jezebel and Ahab reached their position of power because Christians give it to them. “Therefore, holy brothers, who share in the heavenly calling, focus your attention on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess. 2 He was faithful to the one who appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in God’s whole house. 3 In fact, Jesus is worthy of greater glory than Moses, in the same way that the builder of a house has more honor than the house. 4 For every house is built by someone, and God is the one who built everything. 5 Moses was faithful as a servant within God’s whole house by testifying to the things that would be spoken. 6 But Christ is faithful as a Son over God’s house. We are his house, if we hold on firmly to our confidence and the hope about which we boast until the end.” Holy Spirit wants to remind you that your Pastors are not more important than Jesus. They are not to be exalted above God. When you do this you’re not only hurting your own relationship with God but you are destroying their relationship with God. Their mantle is very heavy. They battle so many things on a daily basis, and when you begin to exalt them above the Lord, you add to the battle. You add pride to that list of battles. And we all know that pride comes before a fall. Stop doing that to them. We have to keep our Pastors uplifted before the Lord, warring in the spirit with them. Not opening the doors to more battles. And you need to know that they don’t always win these battles. This is why the suicide rate among Pastors is very high. Our job is to cover them in prayer. Honor them, but do not exult them above the Most High. We are so good at bashing Pastors and never admitting our own blame for being apart of the reason for their fall from grace. The builder of the house - GOD - has more honor than the house. You do not want to stand before the judgment seat with this hanging over you, and so many are guilty of this. Jezebel and Ahab reached their position of power because Christians gave it to them. It doesn’t happen on its own. While we are not the giver of the spirit of Jezebel, we are responsible for the power it exerts in the church because we do one of 2 things. 1. The church feeds into its greedy desire for control and power, thus promoting its power even higher. (Stop competing for her favor. This is Jezebel’s first step in the process for control. She makes you compete against the brethren when it is God’s desire that we work together for the kingdom.) 2. The church lacks knowledge on how to identify and cast it out. (We have gotten so complacent and stuck in rituals. We can’t even recognize when things are shifting. We must learn to identify and react.) Jezebel is very sneaky. The control she gains did not happen in one shot. She’s adept at waiting years for the chance to grab power. And she’s an even greater threat to those who sits underneath this Jezebel spirit. She will steal all of your power too, and leave you crippled and broken. This is the position she seeks for everyone that is under her. And if you think you’re saved because she’s found favor with you, know this to be true. Her favor is always a temporary thing. Remember this, Jezebel IS a demonic spirit and demonic spirits get very jealous of people who are not broken and under submission. If you sit under this spirit, you need deliverance just as much as the person operating under this spirit. There’s so many avenues to help you out there, but if you don’t seek it, you will never find it. I sincerely hope that this morning’s devotion is helping someone to get free. *** Father God, it is not your desire that anyone should perish. Nor would you want us in bondage. Someone out there needs to be set free today. Someone out there is carrying a yolk of bondage that is so heavy that their spirit is beginning to crumble. They are committed to you and your church, but they have been placed in a position of deception. Abba we repent for them. We repent for them not having discernment that a spirit had entered the church and that spirit was not of you. We repent for the lack of knowledge on how to deal with that demonic spirit. Open their eyes so that they can see the truth. Lord, you have warned us about Jezebel having her way in the church in your book of Revelations. May they begin to heed your warning and loose themselves from the power of her control. Father equipped them now with the tools of freedom. Show them now where their help lies. It is only through your Son Jesus that we have redemption from every false spirit. And we serve you noticed today, Jezebel, you can no longer hide for we see you. You can no longer reign over the lives of God people. We are coming after you, Jezebel and the yoke will be broken off the people. Every contract will be canceled by the authority and blood of Jesus Christ. We arm them in the Spirit to battle against Jezebel. We break every curse off of them and poison the root of every lie spoken over them by Jezebel to make them feel that they are lessor than you said they are. Fill them with your Spirit right now. Empowering them like they have never been empowered before. I declare they will arm themselves with the Armor of God and stand strong against the enemy. This is a new day, Lord. A day that they will see the light of freedom and lift the yoke of burden. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
