Check your foundations, My children, for the enemy of your souls will soon be checking them searching for a way into your life. He has always done this but in times to come, in times of distress, in times when you are distracted, cracks appear that are easy access for him.
He seeks to kill, steal or destroy you and others he gains access to through you. Be on guard, My children, for his attacks have recently increased and will increase more and more in the coming year.
He will turn those near you against you where he can - pray for them. Pray for them now while there is yet time. He will plunder your houses, attack your health and your finances, but those who are hidden in Me shall not fear.
Those who do My will and walk in My ways shall know My protection.
I love you, My children. The times at hand are perilous but you have My love and My word to light the way before you.
John 10:10: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Psalm 11:2-3: For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. (3) If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
Luke 6:47-49: 47Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: (48) He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. (49) But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
II Timothy 3:1: This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
Psalm 119:105: Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Psalm 119:105: Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Glynda thank you for this word from the Lord. It uplifted me when i read it I Love you in christ Jesus. God Bless you.

ReplyDeleteMary, Sounds like your brother might be 'held captive', or affected by an evil spirit(s).
ReplyDeleteGlynda's suggestions are excellent; I'd be inclined to widen the scope and plead the blood of Jesus over your brother too! In Ephesians 6:12, it says that "we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
I know it may be hard to do, but think of your brother, being lied to by satan and used by satan to attack those around him who love him! We are called, as believers, to CAST these demons out, where ever they are; it is a mark of being a true believer. (Mark 16:17) I say this as one who has long endured such abuse from satans devils, But Thanks to Jesus, I am now daily witnessing my family grow closer to the Lord in ways I never dreamed possible! I, too, was held captive by the demon of depression, (oi! Such hell on earth few can understand without experiencing it themselves,) but am now SET FREE!
There is a web link that I'll post here in case you wish to explore further, that has been of GREAT help to me in casting these demons out from me and my family's life:

I will keep all of you in my prayers...Shalom!
Wow, I have a perfect example of a couple I know getting attacked by Satan right now - they believe in God and love Him but don't really have a personal relationship with Christ that they act on, on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteThey appear to be falling outside of His protection right now because of that. It's possible that Christ is letting the enemy attack them to strengthen them or prepare them for something, but I don't know if they can hear Him well enough to be good candidates for that right now.
I put a prayer request on the forums about this.
Glynda, thank you for the words of encouragement and caution from the Lord that you passed on, and for your own words of encouragement.
I'm going to try to remember to pray for anyone I see struggling; also, if someone is malicious towards me I'm going to try to remember that the enemy is attacking/working through those that don't personally know Christ right now and pray for them.
Thanks to anyone posting words of encouragement in the name of love here.
Your brother in Christ,
Eric
opinion - You are not alone, I have many times when I was in the spiritual wilderness just had a complete meltdown like what you spoke of, and I would feel so bad afterwards. Part of the purpose of the wilderness is to apply enough pressure that the ugly things that are still inside of us will rise to the surface so we will cry out to the Lord for help with them. Be encouraged, He is well able to bring you out of where you are. It sounds like you have been in the battle for awhile now. Lord, I pray you will touch my sister and give her peace, I pray You will help her, Lord to see and defeat the enemy in every area of her life. I pray You would strengthen her this day and lift her spirits, Lord. Help her to stay in the battle - and to win. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen. Hugs to you, opinion! ~ Glynda
ReplyDeleteI just came across this song about praying for your friends and thought it would be a good thing to share here:

Also, I gained some insight from Glynda's last post.
Glynda, in your last post you said 'Part of the purpose of the wilderness is to apply enough pressure that the ugly things that are still inside of us will rise to the surface so we will cry out to the Lord for help with them.'
I struggle with this because I don't ever like to give any ugly things within me a chance to see the light of day, because I hate seeing them and dealing with them. But there are some unrefined traits in my character, and I can see how being in a pressure cooker might force me to let them out and deal with them whether I want to or not.
God has been patient with me - while He's added burdens into my life so that it would be necessary for me to deal with these things similar to what Glynda was describing, it hasn't been SO chaotic that I've been thrust headlong into them without having some peace and security in my life.
I'm starting to see now that I need to quit being so guarded against having weaknesses, as I need to acknowledge and accept them in order for God to help me with them, and to quit being so afraid of making mistakes and being weak in general.
Glynda, thanks for your help.
Mary and opinion, I pray that God gives you strength to persevere through your current struggles and that everyone involved with your situations learns to trust God and make the best choices possible.
Eric, Thank you for that compassionate post, and for the wonderful encouragement to Mary and opinion! ~ Glynda

ReplyDeleteI am thankful for these posts. It is hard to hear these sometimes, but way better to be warned thant to be lulled to sleep with deception. Will there be a bright day for Yah's people? for many of Us we have been being stripped for years. Two of my friends lost their homes to forclosure and many of us have already expereinced betrayal and persecution at the hands of friends and family so I am thnakful for this confirmation and not think I am going crazy. The hardest for me is seeing it come at the hands of people of Yah and I am not talking about nominal belivers. I am talking about the ones that have the depth that you have Glynda they are the last I would expect it from. Thank Yah for your obedeince to warn. We have to cover our family so needed I see it so clearly and cover all the cracks indeed.
ReplyDeleteI want to share about the attacks that Glynda spoke of. We need to heed the warnings of attacks of unkindness and hurt from those closest to us and be on gurard and prayerful, but I had an expereince this afternoon that we have to also be aware of the attacks I think the enemy uses more than we think but because they don't come packaged in hostility and harm we don't see them as such. Beware of the attacks that the enemy will use through people we love to STEAL our intimate time with him. My mom had an issue with a package that was supposed to be delivered to her house and she was upset about it we talked about it and we prayed and she went to run errands. I Felt a strong pulling from Yah that he wanted to spend some intimate moments with me so I went into my prayer closet. Yah was really speaking to my heart and the phone rang. I ignored it. My cell rang, I ignored it this went on 6 times til my concentration was broken and I finally called my mother back (I knew it was her she is the only one who calls my home and cell one after the other). She got her package situation resolved and she wanted to tell me all about it. I was very annoyed because when she calls that frequently I am thinking it is a life and death situation. I was glad she got the situation resolved but she could hear I was upset and ended the call. I am not mad at my mom per se, she did not know I was praying but satan did and knew I was going in deep and disruppted it. I am mad becasue I could not recaputure that moment of wooing. it will come again but I was mad! I will be shutting off my rigners from now on, but wanted to share, be aware of those blatant attacks but BEWARE when satan tries to use loved ones who don't know they are innocently being used to steal your intimate time with YAH through things that are not life and death situations. he will use ther hurt feelings to make you feel guilty and other nonsense. Our intimate time with Yah as many of you know is our LIFELINE and we have to guard it no matter what.
ReplyDeleteDemita - Thank you so much for sharing that! I have experienced very similar attacks on my time with the King! We would certainly not leave our ringers turned on if we were in an important meeting at work, so why do we forget to turn them off when we are with Him? Great reminder, Demita!!
