God Verifies Messages!

Every so often, God verifies things for me in a special way. It started in January of 2016 when I sought confirmation that we should give 10% to support the Jewish people. God verified this should be done in a miraculous way:

In a single day, more than 500 people visited my website from Israel. It was exactly 10% of the all time total hits on my website! (Read that complete story, CLICK HERE)

A Gift Especially for You!

As I prayed and asked God what to say for the Christmas meeting of 2018, He was very clear: He had a gift for every one of His children. Here is a brief video with that gift:

Here is the video of the testimonies that came after the gift was given. These are regular people stating how God has shown up in their lives... you may be surprised and what means the most to those who have experienced Him.

Azusa Street Online

A short message about Azusa Street Online

The Holy Spirit kept me up all night, speaking to me about the outpouring of God that is on the way. He kept saying “Azusa Street Online.” Here is what God has revealed:

Why Didn't I get Healed?

Have you prayed for healing for yourself or a loved one? Did the healing fail to manifest? God is big and there could be many reasons the Healing didn’t happen. I believe Jesus gave us one of the reasons:

The Biggest Danger for Every Christian

“Narrow is the path that leads to life…” (Matthew 7:14)

The word translated “life” is the Greek word zoe which means not only “an active and vigorous life in God” here on Earth, but also the promise of “everlasting life.” Many Christians focus on the fact that they have accepted Jesus as Lord and, in doing so, receive Heaven as their final destination. Meanwhile, in this life, they are not experiencing the abundance of God’s presence which brings both healing and provision.

God in the Middle of Man

On Monday the 19th I did a very special message for the American Holiday, Thanksgiving. It came from a prayer session where the Holy Spirit revealed 4 Steps to Walking into Your Destiny. Obedient to my Guide, I delivered the message on the week I was supposed to be spending with my family.

I was shocked to see the Holy Spirit confirm the message. If you are a regular reader on this blog, you may remember that sometimes my Guide will confirm important events with massive hits on my blog from Israel. These hits do not correspond to an article or a page - they just appear out of nowhere. Here is what happened on the 19th:

4 Steps to Walk into Your Destiny

Last night I was crying out to the Lord… literally crying. The path to my destiny has been so long, so hard, I felt like I was hanging on by my fingernail. This was when the Holy Spirit began to show me four distinct steps that lead to our destiny… well, my destiny. I believe that this is God’s usual path for us and I hope that by sharing what I have learned, it will help you walk into your destiny quicker.

Clearly Defined Unauthorized Authority

Are there limits to man’s authority on this Earth? Are there consequences if we step outside our authority? For many years I believed that “all authority” was given to me because so many big preachers were saying that. Recently, God has shown me that statement is not supported in the Word of God. When we try use authority God hasn’t given us, this is wielding Unauthorized Authority.

Removing Hidden Demonic Attachments

The Holy Spirit brought a recent revelation to us about a new “tool” in the Courts of Heaven. A pattern has emerged: Often people are cleared of charges and even receive healing, but something still keeps popping up every now and then. They come back to the Courts and receive charges, but a short time later, it resurfaces. It is like a demon is dealt with and slides out of view only to put on a new mask, using a slightly different approach to interfere with your life!

There are many ways a demon can “hide.” One is to pose as a member of the Trinity, most often, the Holy Spirit. Once, a demon tried to do this with me. If they can get us to believe they are speaking for God, this imitation can lead us astray. Here is a good example of why so many Christians wind up in a ditch:

I had been experiencing correction in the form of vertigo. When I would walk in the wrong direction, depending on the severity of the offence, I would get dizzy each time I would stand. At the worst point, I even threw up because the room spun for so long! This was a repetitive process:

1. Go to the Courts
2. Find the cause
3. Repent for the sin
4. Cover it with the blood
5. Get the charges dismissed

The vertigo would get better but only for a couple of days, then it would return again. Three weeks into this cycle, I laid down on the couch on my left side and when the vertigo assaulted me, I cried out for help, “Holy Spirit, what is going on? Why is this happening!”

My eyes were closed, and a familiar form appeared before me. It was the full-grown man who I knew as the Holy Spirit laying on his side, facing me. He was so clear and so vivid. As we talked, something seemed a bit off so I asked, “Do you confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh onto the Earth?” 

The man laughed. I had seen the child form of the Holy Spirit laugh, but never the man. It seemed different somehow. About that time, I was momentarily distracted because my dog did something. When I refocused, the man was completing what he was saying. I continued talking to him, but a voice reminded me that I hadn’t really heard the man say, “Yes.” 

I asked again, stating, “I’m sorry, but I have to ask once more: Do you confess that the Son of God, Yeshua Ha Mashiach, the Christ has come in the flesh to the Earth?”

The vision began to crumble like a wadded up sheet of paper with distortion lines running through it. Then it vanished. “Holy Spirit,” I cried, “What happened?”

“That wasn’t me,” said the voice filled with so much love that I knew to be the true Holy Spirit.

“Why was it allowed to come when I called for you?” I asked.

My Teacher replied, “You gave it a place by listening to it.”

I cried out in panic, “When? How did I give this spirit a place?”

My mind filled with memories of sharing the last few posts a dozen times. Although I didn’t feel led by the Holy Spirit to do it, it just seemed like a good thing to do. Now I know that it was the prodding by the fake holy spirit, causing me to get into self-effort. It is up to the readers to share the posts, not me. 

This is an example of a hidden demon trying to gain a place in my life. It can be very subtle and seem very innocent. Sometimes, we just feel that something is hindering us and we can’t put a finger on why or how. When things persist against us, it is often because we have stepped out of line giving the enemy legal access to us. 

On one occasion, in the Courts of Heaven, I followed the leading of the Holy Spirit, demanding, not merely asking, that any spirit, even hidden ones that are not active, step forward and state their claims. I saw a demon that was fully formed, then he became a puddle, a few seconds later, the demon would pop up in a different location. This is what a hidden demon does. It only exerts influence for a time, then it withdraws deep inside like a puddle so that it can remain hidden. 

The first team member received their charges which the Holy Spirit made clear where the root of the access was. Next we placed another member before the Judge, let’s call her Judy. After demanding all spirits, even hidden ones, step forward, we listened. What we received was a perfect example of how a spirit can remain hidden and why:

Judy heard “Oh, crap,” right away. This is not from the Holy Spirit. He will not use this type of language because the Bible tells us not to curse or use foul language. 

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace to the hearers. (Ephesians 4:29 AKJV)

Let there be no filthiness (obscenity, indecency) nor foolish and sinful (silly and corrupt) talk, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting or becoming; but instead voice your thankfulness [to God]. (Ephesians 5:4 AMPC)

Since this was coarse language, Judy realized that it was not from the Holy Spirit but a different spirit attached to her. She began to panic as she had witnessed the fate of the spirit attached to the other teammate.

Our other team members saw a pair of eyes on her back and running to and from things. This labeled the demon as a “watcher” and its job was to distract her from her destiny.

Judy began to explain things that the Holy Spirit was bringing to her: 

• She had an old boyfriend who used to stalk her and watch her every move.
• When she was really young there was a demon who used to talk to her but a friend’s mother who was a “Spiritualist” did a “cleansing” and the demon sang a “goodbye” song to her. 

The only power we have over demons comes through the Name and Blood of Jesus. All the spiritualist accomplished was to push the demon into hiding. It brought temporary relief, but years later, it manifested by attacking her through her boyfriend. 

Judy repented for placing faith in something spiritual that wasn’t of God and for all the times that she had listened to this spirit. After she covered this sin with the blood of Jesus, the cases that were giving this spirit access were overruled and the spirit could be removed. This is how easy it is to deal with a hidden spirit. 

This may also happen if you abuse the authority and use the blood of Jesus without the guidance of the Holy Spirit. When you commit the sin which gives the demon access once again, the demon returns.

It isn’t always necessary to go to the CoH to receive deliverance from hidden demons. Notice that I didn’t have to go to the Courts. Holy Spirit spoke directly to me and I was able to repent and take care of it with the Blood of Jesus who then contends for me in the Courts. Our Advocate will have the cases dismissed and the demon will have to leave.

It is very presumptuous to assume that there is only one way for God to handle removing the enemy from our lives. That which we have experienced is not the limit of how God moves. These are just a couple of examples from our experiences. This is why we only schedule intercession appointments now. We rely on the Lord to show us how to handle each situation such as, whether or not we need to enter the Courts or if the Holy Spirit, our Counselor, will lead and guide us gently into the truth outside of the Courts.

Roadmap to Heaven

Destroying Curses
in the Courts of Heaven

Many people think of boot camp as a place you train for combat. Any veteran will tell you that basic training is about three things:

• Knowing what weapons are available 
• Learning how to use those weapons 
• Receiving orders and following them 

Believer’s Boot Camp series is a collection of books which teach us how to hear more clearly from God with the goal to ready ourselves for a face-to-face meeting with our Lord, Jesus. The series reveals the “weapons and tools” God has given us and how to use them, so we can bring God’s kingdom to Earth. Each book in the series focuses on a single topic to clearly define one tool or weapon from our Heavenly Father. 

The series uses the Word of God to reveal all that He has given us through Jesus. The Bible is our instruction manual and the Holy Spirit is our guide to understanding it.

Volume 1: Why Doesn't God Speak to Me?

Eager hearts cry out, hoping for a single word to confirm that He hears us. Yet, many times the only sound is silence. Over the years I have heard several reasons why God speaks to some and not to others. One night, as I tossed and turned, I brought each of these reasons before the Lord, stating why each of them did not line up with who I thought He was. 

Words rose from my soul, pleading for Him to reveal why He has remained silent when a single word from Him would mean so much to so many. For the next few hours, God used things I learned about years ago and things I had just discovered to show why He talks to some and why He doesn’t, and in demonstrative ways. 

In His grace, He also showed me how people could hear more from Him. Basic instructions on how to hear more from God and how to be led by Him are included in this book. Thank you for taking time to consider the answers I received and share with you now.

Keys to Authority for Every Believer

There is untapped power that is easy for every Christian to access in the form of authority. The keys to this authority will unlock weapons we can use to free ourselves from the attacks of the enemy. We must be intimately aware of the bounds and limitations of our weapon if they are to be used effectively. 

Find out about your authority:

• Why you need it.
• Where it comes from.
• What you can do with it.
• How to get more.

Levels of Demonic Attachment

(Levels of Demonic Attachments)

Over the last year my team and I have taken hundreds of people to the Courts of Heaven to become free of attacks of the enemy. One of the questions I am asked quite often is, what does it feel like when you are under assault by the enemy? What is a part of normal life and what is an attack, resulting from a demon or a demonic attachment? To really understand this question, let’s look at the commonly accepted, well known, tactics of the enemy.

Why Waste Time Having Fun?

On a recent visit to the Courts of Heaven I received some instruction. Two of the seers gave this report:

Attentive, Busy, Self forgiveness, Selflessness: Love your neighbor as yourself, It is alright to love yourself otherwise how will you know how to love others as yourself. I see you running around giving instructions, Commanding around nonstop without end, no resting, then I see you sitting down exhausted. Lynn your body can’t handle this. It is not by power nor by might but by my Spirit. 

Let go and rest a bit more.

Along with this were instructions to take time to “enjoy” life. The description was very accurate. Everyday I didn’t stop tending to the Agape Christian Fellowship (Agape-CF) website and the Courts of Heaven Facebook group until my brain was exhausted and I couldn’t think any more. But why was this a bad thing? I had a list of things that still needed to be done!

It is About Balance...

I was having trouble sleeping at night, so I decided I'd give up coffee one Tuesday morning to see if that would help. By noon, a caffeine headache was blooming and I had the Agape Fellowship meeting in less than an hour.

Laying on the couch, praying, I asked the Lord, "Take this headache away if you don't want me drinking that cup of coffee that's brewing during the meeting. Otherwise I have no choice!" The pain building behind my temples left.

Slightly bummed at thinking I would have to give up my morning cup of coffee, I began the meeting. During the opening time of worship I met the Lord in the Secret Place. We danced together as is our custom.

Courts of Heaven - Testimony

By Isaac Zadok

I would like to testify to the goodness of God towards me in this article. I hope my testimony blesses each one of you after reading it. One day, I read Luke 17:11-19 where Jesus blesses the Leper who came and thanked him and was made whole simply by giving honour to whom honour is due.

• Before going to the CoH, I had done all sorts of things, some of which many of you may have done. 
• Wielded unauthorized authority by engaging leviathan, principalities, powers, spiritual wickedness in high places and rulers of the darkness of this world. 
• Warred against familiar spirits, Jezebel and other spirits. 
• Come into agreement for people's healing when I should not have. 
• Received healing and deliverance and soon found symptoms reoccurring after some time.

I have found that after going on consecration or time away from Church, God began speaking about his will for my life however, no matter how hard I tried, I was never able to do much because there was blockage. I knew there were curses somewhere, which needed to be removed. All this speaks of the old way of doing things.

How God Sees Us!

It was on the Feast of Trumpets, during worship at our weekly Agape Fellowship meeting, I was once again in the Secret Place. After dancing with Jesus during the first song, I appeared in the river with God as Abba: I was a little child. He lifted me up and I hugged His neck telling Him how much I love being with Him. 

After hugging me back He turned me around and pulled me into Himself, I was residing inside God. I could see through His eyes instead of my own. Here is what I experienced:

Strengthening Our Spirits: Why, When & How

Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept complete and [be found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Thessalonians 5:23)

Many Christians have been taught we have a spirit, soul and body but not too many understand the role of each of them. Some believe the soul and spirit are the same but that is not scriptural.

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”  Hebrews 4:12

1/2 the Revelation - Miraculous Confirmation

I often hear from the Lord through my online stats. Without doing anything new, downloads of my book or website hits, will suddenly shoot through the roof when the Lord brings me a new revelation. I looked at the Amazon Kindle downloads for my free books and instantly knew God was saying something.

I had two spikes in downloads in the last month: when the second spike was twice the size of the first, I knew God was pointing something out. Here is when they happened:

The Awakening & the Feast of Trumpets

As discussed in the last post (CLICK HERE to read it) the miraculous sign of the Bible flowing with oil was announcing the Outpouring that would come after the Awakening which began in September of 2017. I didn’t realize it until I began writing about it, but I arrived in Dalton, GA, thanks to flight delays, on the first day of the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah) and God has revealed the meaning of the oil when I am to be delivering His messages on the last day of this feast.

What exactly is the Awakening about? How do we know the Awakening has begun? Those are two very loaded questions, but I will try to address both here in this post.

Identify Numbers as a Sign from Heaven

A friend help me book my flights to Dalton, Georgia through an online service.  We were going to investigate the miracle of the Bible that was supernaturally flowing with oil. I don’t really look for the meanings of numbers in my daily life: if you try, you can usually find the number you are hoping to see. However, as I took my seat on the plane, I saw the flight information for my return flight for the first time. The times of the flights were so… distinct, that there was little doubt that God was saying something:

My flight leaves at: 4:44 and arrives at my layover at: 5:55

Departs again at 10:10 with a finally arrival at 2:22.

One of the first things you learn when studying dream interpretation and Biblical meanings of numbers is that 3 is God’s perfection and completion in the spirit. Three out of the 4 times for when I am traveling home have a repetition of 3 numbers and the fourth is the a double of the same number. There is no word for coincidence in the Hebrew language. So I began to look at the meanings concerning these numbers: 

More than the Courts of Heaven

There is a guidance system I have lived by as an author of secular books which I find can be aptly applied to my Christian ministry as well:

• If one person misunderstands my work, I file the information in the back of my mind for later.
• If two people misunderstand the same thing, I take a look at it to see if there is something I can fix.
• If three people have trouble understanding something, it is a problem that must be fixed. 

In the last month we have had two people misunderstand the purpose of the Courts of Heaven - Worldwide and am taking action before I receive another. Some people have looked at this group as a “Church” and found that it is lacking. I agree wholeheartedly - I was shocked when people began to refer to what I was doing as “Lynn Hardy Ministries.” I accepted this title believing that the CoH group would supplement what churches were doing and minister to one specific need: it would help the Church (world-wide body of believers) in one clearly defined area. 

The Deceptiveness of "Freely Given"

I sought God and asked Him why the information about the Courts of Heaven wasn’t being assimilated into the Body of Christ. Even when people know about it, many don't flourish in their rightful place in the Courts as children of the Most High and citizens of Heaven. I didn’t like the answer I received, not one bit.

I have put off writing this blog until the last minute… I didn’t want to write it at all because I was afraid it would be misunderstood. Let me start by clarifying so that there will not be any misconstructions: 

Why we Have a 3 Court Visit System

The Lord has been refining our system in the Courts since we began in January, 2018. It seems He reveals a little something every month or so. At first, we were receiving and removing charges all in the same visit. This presented two problems:

1. If someone didn’t show up, a great amount of time was wasted.
2. It didn’t allow people an opportunity to seek and receive understanding from the Holy Spirit.

By March, we had broken the appointments apart, addressing one issue at a time for greater efficiency and to provide our petitioners with time to connect with the Holy Spirit on their own. Many people received dreams or visions to explain the charges. Others had family members suddenly come forward to expose where a generational curse began. 

Leaders, the Courts, and Backlash

A recent visit to the Courts of Heaven revealed several key factors about operating in the fullness of what Jesus had provided for us:

1. Freedom and healing, both physical and emotional, can come quickly.
2. The Courts of Heaven is not a “one and done,” it is a lifestyle.
3. Listening to the Holy Spirit in the Courts is crucial. 
4. Seasoned Christians can experience backlash as they operate in the Courts.

There are many testimonies in the Courts of Heaven - Worldwide Facebook group and our website Agape Christian Fellowship that show how instant healing can come in the Courts. However, what many do not tell you is that operating in the Courts is not a one time thing. It is a lifestyle; it is the beginning of a prayer life that considers the Courts of Heaven as things come up as a possible tool to use. Additional visits to the Courts of Heaven will be necessary in our life. Leaders are not exempt from this, in fact, it is quite the opposite. Returning to the Courts is vital for those who are helping others obtain all the Jesus has done in the Courtrooms of Heaven.

Courts of Heaven - Worldwide: Closed Facebook Group

The Courts of Heaven - Worldwide is part of Agape Christian Fellowship which is a church. Is it right for a part of a church to be closed? Private? Available to “members only?” I struggled with this question, and even asked the group for their opinion. I want to thank each of you for expressing your opinion. God has now shown me what to do, and as usual, given me scripture to back up His answer.

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-15)

MERCY & GRACE in the Courts of Heaven

When we noticed that many people were coming under attack after their appointment, we began praying for those seeking God’s justice through our ministry. We asked that the Judge grant them grace and mercy: how could justice be done if they weren’t allowed time to understand what was against them? We saw a definite improvement in the number of people who came under attack, but there were still some whose lives were turned upside down with spiritual or even physical attacks after going to the Courts, even after their first visit. There are a couple of reasons this may occur:

The courts are not taken seriously - the petitioner doesn’t really see themselves as before the Judge so they shrug off whatever happens. 

Dreams about Our Past

Dreams about places or people from our past have a special meaning centered around that time when these things were in our lives. God brought me a dream like this that I believe will speak to many people in the body of Christ:

Dream: 

I received a phone call from a man, let’s call him Bruce, who I shared an office space with back in 2014. We weren’t partners, I had an office inside his business. He said he had some things of mine and asked me to come by and pick them up. 

The scene changed and I was in this HUGE printing company. It was everything his company wasn’t: organized and hustling with business. Bruce had a small corner space within this huge business. He showed me to some shelves of books. I went through them looking for any titles that I could use. I found a pair of paperbacks, “Route to Peace”  and many copies of an audio book I created in 2011 which I placed in a plastic bag. 

Familiar Spirits and the Courts of Heaven

And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people. (Leviticus 20:6 KJV)

The term “familiar spirits” is used in the Bible to describe those who use information gained through demons on a regular basis. In those days, these people would have included psychics, tarot card readers, palm readers, witch doctors, along with wizards. Is it harmless to get your palm read? Or to go to a tarot card reader? 

According to the above scripture, there is a stiff penalty for associating with spirits who are not from God: He turns His face from us. This means we will lose God's favor and His presence. If you were cut off from your people, you couldn't go to the temple to pray or to offer sacrifices. For Christians this means that your prayers will be hindered if you listen to familiar spirits! 

Besides this direct reference, many Christians use the term “familiar spirit” to refer to a particular aspect of Satan’s network. We know that Satan frequently tries to imitate God. Most of us are aware that we have a “guardian” angel assigned to us (Matthew 18:10, Hebrews 1:14). Satan isn’t omnipresent. He can only be in one place at one time. The Devil assigns demons to humans to keep an eye on them and to harass them. Sometimes Christians refer to these minions as “familiar spirits” because they know us and have often been passed down through our family line. 

Many spirits can speak to us which are not from God:

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to and different from that which we preached to you, let him be accursed… (Galatians 1:8 AMPC)

Fruit from a Tree in Heaven

The next time I visit with the Lord, I began by dancing with Jesus as I have done many times when I worship. The second song I found myself at the river with Abba (Father God) and Jesus: I ran and jumped into Daddy’s arms, letting Him know how much I missed Him. He sat me on the ground and told me to go play. 

Darting forward, I splashed through the shallow stream, toward the Holy Spirit. My Friend ran from me and we chased each other around for a bit in a game of tag. The vision began to become clear and distinct as the child-sized member of the Trinity dashed to a tree and began climbing; I was right on his heels. 

FINANCES HAVE BEEN STOLEN!

Many people think that if we have a dream with items from our life or current situation then it isn’t God. This couldn’t be farther from the truth. The Holy Spirit will take things from our memories and build a story, a dream, with these items in a new context to speak to us.

While traveling back home, God sent me a dream which I believe is for the Body of Christ. I was staying in a hotel and the dream was based in a hotel which resembled where we were sleeping. Here is the dream and the interpretation:

Seeing Butterflies with Abba

My husband drove us toward Phoenix while my teenage girls slept. I had read several chapters of a book about heaven and was longing for another visit to Heaven. I slipped my earbuds in, leaned my head against the door and closed my eyes to block out the world, surrounded by my favorite worship music. I cried out for Abba, my Heavenly Father, who I have been told to call “Daddy or Papa” in the Secret Place.

Striding out of the darkness comes the familiar tall, broad-shouldered, white-haired, late 30’s figure of Daddy. I sprinted to him, leaping up where He can catch me and bring me into His arms. I wrapped my arms around His neck. “Daddy, I’ve missed you!”

Preparing your Mind for the Courts of Heaven

My definition of relaxation has changed since beginning the Courts of Heaven - Worldwide group and the Tea & Coffee meetings. I used to love to shop. Searching for rock-bottom bargains was a fun way to spend an afternoon. Today I took my teen daughter and my niece to the mall and just wanted a place to relax before I have to drive nearly 1000 miles back home. 

The Holy Spirit led me straight to a little shop that was in a dead-end which was under construction. The massage studio was clean and looked very nice; the bed was too inviting to resist. As the massage began I noticed the lyrics to the gentle music were old gospel songs turned into lullabies. 

For the first twenty minutes or so I focused and chatted with the members of the Trinity. I have greatly missed my time in the Courts during this long family trip, so I entered though I spoke no words. I figured that Jesus only shouted for Lazarus so the crowd would know that He was a messenger from God, that I could enter the Courts without speaking a word. I do, however, find it easier to stay focused when I am speaking out loud. 

In my thoughts, I called upon my Heavenly Father as Judge and took my seat as a child of the Most High and a citizen of Heaven. I could see clearly the assembly gathered in a stadium like setting as a chair flew in and came up behind me. I didn’t have an agenda, I just wanted to see my Father and learn more about the Courts. 

Jesus' Favorite Place

Life has become busier than I could have ever imagined. The Courts of Heaven - Worldwide group on Facebook took off like a rocket in a way that says, God is upon this ministry. It truly is more than a social media group. The Lord has had me organize this like a ministry; It is an organized place where people are training to help others learn and visit the Courts of Heaven with a Seer. 

In 5 months we have had more than 2500 people in the group who have wanted to know more about the Courts and receive help with prayer. Many miracles and deliverances have resulted from the dedication of those who are volunteering to help the Body of Christ. The Lord is good, those who volunteer to help others, are finding their spiritual gifts are growing and multiplying. 

The busyness kept me from quiet worship time with the Lord for months. I felt the loss, and Him calling me back to Him. Quieting my mind was harder than I thought possible. Thoughts of the needs of the group kept pushing into my mind - so many needed healing for themselves or a loved one. Worship music helped: focusing on the Word and my love for Him brought the peace and stillness I sought. 

Your Gift is Waiting for You!

Meeting with Prayer to Receive Gifts from God

I received encouragement from the Lord last night in the form of a dream that I know applies to the entire body of Christ.

Dream:

I was in a big mansion-like hotel. Some parts were a little run down. The entrance had a massive table with piles of presents stacked on it. I knew one of those was mine. My sister was there, and we were dressed in Hawaiian-type clothing with a jungle print pattern that had many leaves and very few flowers.
 
There were all kinds of activities for the hundreds of people in this large estate. Will Smith, the actor, was in charge and there was a group of actors around him – but I didn’t recognize any of them. I began hearing that Will had prayed for and healed these guys of “concussion syndrome” that occurs after head trauma.

Avoiding a Trap of Jezebel for Prayer Warriors

One of the ways that Jezebel works is through flattery which gives rise to our pride. This can be mixed with manipulation and divisiveness with someone with whom the Jezebel spirit is trying to get their way. 

We had a perfect example of this with our Courts of Heaven team: 

NO GUARANTEES IN THE COURTS OF HEAVEN

This is one reason why charging for prayer is so wrong: 

When the CoH Team takes you to the Courts of Heaven, there are not guarantees for the results you will get; it isn’t up to us. We can usher you into the presence of God. He will decide if an instant miracle will happen on the first visit as it has happened a few times in the past, but there is NOTHING we can do to MAKE anything happen. GOD is in charge. 

Attacks that Come After the Courts of Heaven?

 What is Backlash 

“Study and do your best to present yourself to God approved, a workman [tested by trial] who has no reason to be ashamed, accurately handling and skillfully teaching the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15 AMP)

Our Lord paid the price for us to be free. However, we must learn His ways to appropriate all that He has done. If you have not yet studied the Word of God concerning the Courts of Heaven, you can find the free book (very short) “Destroying Curses in the Courts of Heaven” at most ebook distributors, including Amazon, Nook, and iTunes. 

It was surprising to discover that backlash, attacks upon our health or emotions, could come after removing charges in the Courts. There are many reasons that may occur. I am aware of some, and I am sure there are more:

1. Abuse of Authority
2. Miss-Applying the Charges
3. Failure to Confess
4. Ignoring Court Procedures
5. Jezebel

Jezebel, the Church, and YOU

Jezebel

There is one obstacle that may keep you from operating in the fullness of your authority in Heaven. Commonly believed to be related to one of the heads of Leviathan, she is known as the “Queen of Heaven” or “Satan’s bride.” This is a category of demons also referred to as “Jezebel.” 

Your authority can be hampered and your life may be miserable if she is in your life. You must know how to recognize her and remove her from your life in order to operate in the Courts of Heaven successfully.

Before you begin this class please read the story of Jezebel and Ahab which is in the Bible. The full story is revealed in connection with other events during the reign in King Ahab which can be found in first and second Kings:

1 Kings 16:30 - 2 Kings 9:37

We have had many testimonies about healing that comes by applying the information in this class. Here is one that captures the process beautifully:

It is with great joy and relief that I write this. I had been suffering from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) for around seven years now. It started as Polycystic Ovarian Disorder (PCOD) but in recent years, it intensified and became PCOS. The last time I had my menstruation was in June, 2020. I completed my Jezebel class on the 12th of March and attended my training dedication on the 14th and confessed my sins, repented over them, and cried out to the Lord to help me to be protected from the attacks of the spirit. I was shocked to find that the spirit resides in the pituitary gland, the one responsible for the secretion of hormones and the proper functioning of ovaries. 

Even though it hasn't even been a week since then, there were multiple situations where the spirit of Jezebel persistently tried to make me tolerate it. It hurt me to say no to those I hold dear to my heart but I was aware that it wasn't them speaking but the spirit behind them. I had to remind myself every day that God is with me and that He is taking care of me. 

I leaned more on my Lord, turn away from the tricks and traps of the spirit as much as I could, spent time in worship and prayers, gave everything that burdened me into His capable hands, and asked the Holy Spirit to reveal to me the sins I need to turn from and the soul ties that needed to be broken. However, I cannot say I could completely or thoroughly stay clear of ‘Jezebel slips.’ But I did cry out to the Lord for his mercy and forgiveness every single day and tried again.

Yesterday, on the 17th of April, 2021, I got back my periods! All thanks and all glory to the merciful God! No, I was not under any treatment or medication for my PCOS these past five years. Those weren't even affordable for us. I can confidently say that it was God and God alone who did this in the most amazing and miraculous way! No words can describe the sheer joy, gratitude, and relief I am experiencing now.

One thing I wish to say is that I did not even pray about my health or PCOS. I just focused on the Lord and thanked Him for my health every day. I love God for what He did for me. He really is the God of miracles! May the good God reward you and bless you abundantly.

H.V.

Jezebel

But I have this [charge] against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess [claiming to be inspired], and she teaches and misleads My bond-servants so that they commit [acts of sexual] immorality and eat food sacrificed to idols. (Revelation 2:20 AMP)

The Jezebel spirit is so evil that in the Book of Revelation, God warns us about the consequences of hosting or tolerating this demon in the church. This applies to people who are operating under her influence. Three things that they do are mentioned:

1. Give false prophecies which are often vague or obvious
2. Twist the Word of God 
3. Mislead people into sin

I gave her time to repent [to change her inner self and her sinful way of thinking], but she has no desire to repent of her immorality [and refuses to do so.] Listen carefully, I will throw her on a bed of sickness, and those who commit adultery with her [I will bring] into great anguish, unless they repent of her deeds. And I will kill her children (followers) with pestilence [thoroughly annihilating them]. (Revelation 2:21-23 AMP)

Churches should gently correct people who have this spirit and give them time to repent. This spirit will bring the person power and abilities of manipulation for a time, but in the end there will be consequences:

• Sickness
• Pain—both emotional and physical

To understand this spirit, we need to look at the physical example we have of the person from whom the spiritual principality gets her name. In 1 Kings, Jezebel is a wicked pagan queen who worshiped Baal or Satan. She was married to King Ahab and manipulated him to bow down to and worship other gods. She committed murder to please her husband and she tried to kill the prophet Elijah. Jezebel hates the prophets.

Her intimidation tactics are ruthless when she is angry. This is the same spirit that was exemplified by Herodias, the wife of King Herod, as well as her daughter Salome who danced around the King to seduce him, then asked him for the head of John the Baptist. 

The name “Jezebel” can also mean married to Baal, and Baal as already established is Satan. This principality can also manifest itself as a dragon and works hand in hand with Leviathan. When Jezebel is influencing a person in a church, she will disguise herself as someone spiritual, a false prophet, a member of the worship team, or a seer who has a counterfeit holy spirit. Often someone who has a Jezebel spirit will manipulate their way onto the worship team, or into a leadership position in the church, where she wreaks havoc in every area of the church. The goal of this spirit is to move up in the church to get as close to the pastor as possible to eventually control him/her. 

As it is moving into position, if anyone gets in its way, this spirit will attempt to destroy them, their relationships, marriages and/or businesses. By the time people realize what’s going on, it can be too late. The damage has been done, and it can take years to pick up the pieces and mend the brokenness that Jezebel causes. 

Someone dominated by the Jezebel Spirit will have many of the following traits:
(The sin is listed inside the parentheses) 

• Jezebel shows up when there is a vacuum of power: The power-hungry spirit may appear to be helping out when the real intent is to take control of that position. (Striving for power)
• The spirit will try to befriend and manipulate as many members of the opposite sex as possible through lust to turn them into Ahabs. (Manipulation, using lust to seduce others)
• Loves and seeks out money and power, wishing for control over it. (Love of money, love of power)
• A skilled liar, it will say whatever it has to in order to win someone over and become its eunuch or puppet. (Lying) 
• Through manipulation, it uses the fear of being rejected to excuse bad behavior, which further controls others (Manipulation)
• Jezebel likes to isolate and pit people against each other by pointing out flaws and/or faults, true or not. Those influenced by this spirit will not approach a person directly but instead point it out to others. (Divisiveness and causing strife) 
• The spirits are prone to jealousy and envy when someone is promoted before them or is getting more attention than they are. They will suggest that they are not being recognized or honored. (Jealousy, envy)
• They are never wrong and cannot take constructive criticism; they will accuse people falsely to attempt to prove they are not at fault, “it’s always someone else’s fault.” (Manipulation)  
• They initiate and partake in witchcraft prayers which centered around what will benefit them) to manipulate circumstances to go their way (Manipulation, witchcraft)
• They pretend to be spiritual and to hear the Holy Spirit all the time, using scriptures manipulatively. They will make you feel like your walk with God is not as special as their close relationship with the Holy Spirit. These are the same traits as a religious spirit. (self-righteousness)
• If they are ever allowed to speak or preach, they will be prideful and make sure their name and all their titles/credentials are on display. If they are not on the screen in front of you, they will ask to be introduced with them. If you don’t call them by their title they will remind you to call them Dr., Pastor or Prophet so and so. (Pride)
• Vanity concerning looks. This doesn’t mean they are necessarily good-looking. However, they will be overly concerned with minor aspects of their physical appearance. (vanity)
• Exaggerates often (Lies)
• Bitter and unforgiving when they do not get their way. (Unforgiveness)
• Knows more about you than you realize which is often a familiar spirit at work so they can use it as a weapon against you later if you don’t cooperate. (Witchcraft)
• Will always try to fulfill a need you have, so that they can take advantage of it later with a “you owe me” setup. (Manipulation)
• Has a temper that makes others fear them. (Rage)
• Prone to emotional excess in prayer or if corrected; uses tears and anger as a weapon. (No Self-control)
• Has a problem submitting to legitimate authority. (Rebellion)
• Hates the opposite sex. (Without love)
• Criticizes others to make themselves look better, sowing seeds of discord. (strife)
• Operates in the flesh. (No fruit of the Spirit)
• Pushy and domineering. (Lack of faith that God will get it done)
• Leads others into sexual promiscuity. (Lust)
• Creates confusion when present in a group.

Although the Jezebel spirit is more prevalent in women than in men, it is not only in women. A few signs that may be more apparent in men are: 

• Abusive, controlling personality; most likely have this spirit. 
• Always reminding the congregation they are there to serve him or the church is his house. (We are in the church to serve one another, not the pastor.) 
• Never seen getting his hands dirty, because ‘he is the pastor.’ (This arrogant attitude is another sign of Jezebel working hand in hand with the religious spirit). 

Jezebel’s purpose is to derail any attempt of God to bring true revival or to prevent the Glory of God from entering the church. Over the years we have heard of revival breaking out in churches. Have you ever wondered why it stopped?  Jezebel most likely walked in unnoticed by the leadership and her presence and actions pushed out the true presence of God.

JEZEBEL AND THE CHURCH

I have seen firsthand how Christians might realize something is not right, but are slow to react and afraid to speak up and say anything bad. Many in church do not know how to sound the trumpet on what they are discerning. The problem is many churches do not teach on discernment and how to recognize when the Holy Spirit is showing them something. 

We’ve all been there: we don’t want to say anything negative for fear that we are the one that has a ‘heart attitude problem’ or we will be labeled a troublemaker. It’s good to know where God is at work in our lives and in the church, but we must also know how to discern where the enemy is at work. The Number One demon at work in the church today is the Jezebel spirit. When you do recognize this spirit at work in someone, don’t label them but instead pray for them and your pastor so that they do not submit to this spirit. Ask the Holy Spirit to show them, convict them, and lead them into repentance.

If Jezebel is operating as a woman, she will dress seductively in church or she will do whatever she has to in order to get the pastor’s attention. A person dominated by this spirit will have a word of knowledge all the time and appear very spiritual. Once they have gained the pastor’s trust while operating with a familiar spirit, they will be allowed to prophesy over people. Never allow this person to lay hands on you in prayer or speak into your life. 

This is how defilement runs rapidly in the church: innocent people who blindly follow whatever the pastor tells them without seeking the Holy Spirit about it, will come under major spiritual attacks with witchcraft, oppression, strange illnesses, and even death. Always ask the Holy Spirit first before you allow anyone to prophesy over you or to lay hands on you. The body of Christ needs to avoid being “blind sheep” and have a close personal relationship with God so that the warnings of the Holy Spirit can be heeded.

It is usually in your personal prayer time that God will expose the Jezebel spirit at work in you and/or your church, and you can pray for your pastor and leaders to not fall victim to its spell. Pray that your pastor will heed the warnings given to him or her. 

Some pastors who are warned about a Jezebel spirit operating in a woman will react out of the flesh. Instead of heeding the warning and taking it to prayer, he may feel bad about what was said about someone he knows. If he goes out of his way to be nice to this person, he may be stepping into the snare that Jezebel has laid. Sadly, his good intentions may backfire simply because he did not listen to the warning, and he may wind up being seduced by her. 

Once a Jezebel spirit is tolerated, many more people with this spirit will start attending the same church. It seems to be a spiritual law. When you tolerate Jezebel, compromise with it, and submit to it, this demon spirit will multiply in the church! 

I have watched this spirit manifest in many ways in the church. Once you have encountered this spirit, it is easier to spot each time. I have had many people with this spirit walk up to me and say the Holy Spirit told them they were to mentor me. I always giggle inside because while the devil can put on many different masks, he’s not very creative. Don’t be surprised if you are approached by someone saying the same thing. The Holy Spirit is my teacher, and if the Lord has decided He wants me to be mentored by someone, He will reveal it to me first. 

JEZEBEL AND YOU

Over the years, watching how this demon can influence both men and women, I have concluded that “everyone” may have some traits or patterns of sin that are related to the Jezebel spirit. When we commit these sins, it opens the door for a spirit to attach itself to us. If an attachment develops with a spirit of Jezebel, it is strengthened each time we commit her sins. Eventually, we attribute these sins to part of our personality, making us believe “it is just who we are.” This is when Jezebel is able to work through us for her purposes.

Perhaps the most devastating aspect of Jezebel is that she loves to hide. Many times the person operating under her influence is ignorant of her presence; they love the Lord, but Jezebel has been given access to them and she won’t give up easily. As mentioned before, entertaining her brings some consequences: 

• If you are “on a bed of suffering” of sickness or pain that no prayer will deliver you from, there is a chance that you have unknowingly entertained a Jezebel spirit. 
• If you have been prayed for and received healing for a time, but the sickness or pain returned, Jezebel may be in action in your life.

We were all born with sin. Before we go on a witch hunt, looking for who has a Jezebel spirit, we need to be aware of her traits and examine ourselves first and “repent” for either entertaining Jezebel in our own life, or for submitting to it. In other words, we must also make sure we have not been an Ahab. The key is to nip our sins in the bud so that this spirit has no chance to blossom in our lives. 

Looking over the characteristics of Jezebel is a good place to start. If you don’t feel you have any of these traits, then ask someone close to you. A person who becomes infuriated when these traits are pointed out has this spirit already at work in their life. If you are offended by what is mentioned here, that is Jezebel trying to get you away from the knowledge that can expose and remove her from your life. Only a repentant heart will deliver you from the Jezebel spirit. 

By the way, this demon is known to reside in the pituitary gland, which is why it can take control over your mind and personality. Jezebel’s ultimate goal is to prevent us from living a life of holiness. She will do her best to defile us with fornication, sexual perversity, witchcraft, and false teachings, and lead us to the wide path that keeps us in sin and away from a close walk with God. 

The apostle Peter told us that just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do. For it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.” (1 Peter 11:16) To stop Jezebel from controlling our very being, we must live a life of being quick to repent when we have fallen short of the glory of God and turn away from sin and all temptation. We must have discernment and make sure we never befriend anyone with a Jezebel spirit because “bad company corrupts good character.” (1 Corinthians 15:33) 

If we have any Jezebel-like traits in us, we will not be able to stop tolerating Jezebel in other people. Below is a list of sins to take an honest look at our own life, going back to our childhood: 

• Lying: including manipulating facts which is dishonesty and exaggeration
• Pride
• Pretentious religiousness or trying to seem spiritual
• Desiring and seeking money, including desiring power
• Showing hatred or despising the opposite sex 
• Operating in the flesh and praying manipulative prayers using the word of God to try and get what I want 
• Having your own agenda in ministry or at church instead of looking for what God wants 
• Accepting false prophecies and keeping old prophecies 
• Not wanting to submit to authority
• Fear: including victim mentality, self-pity, self-promotion 
• Attention-seeking or loudness when talking or praying, can include tears (lack of self-control)
• Lust: not only sexually but coveting things or positions of others 
• Secretly wanting a high position and coveting the positions of other leaders to the point of plotting to have them removed so you could fill it
• Jealousy: includes speaking words or actions causing division (causing strife)
• Rage: including speaking death over people or aggressive, pushy, or domineering behavior
• Rebellion: including false humility
• Bitterness: including being revengeful, unforgiving
• Causing confusion 
• False humility

You may choose to confess, repent, and plead the blood over these sins, then revoke Jezebel’s access to you. Here is an example of a prayer that can be prayed to accomplish this:

Father, I acknowledge that I have yielded myself to the spirits of Jezebel.

I come to you, humbling myself before you. I desire your standard of righteousness and holiness in my life. I ask you to forgive me for allowing the Jezebel spirit to manifest in my own life and for tolerating it in others. I should never have been sympathetic to its ways. I confess that my ancestors were also wrong in tolerating this spirit. Please forgive me for every way I have opened myself up to this spirit. Help me to ruthlessly reject its way of thinking and every desire to control and manipulate other people.

I confess that I was in agreement and compliant with her network, whether willingly or ignorantly, I received her deceptive tricks and got caught in her web of destruction. I have reviewed her traits and I have concluded that I and my ancestors have been guilty of these sins. (Only say the ones that apply to you at any time in your life; you do not want a false confession)

I am so very sorry for all these sins and will turn from them now. I cover all of these sins with the blood of Jesus and ask that the sins of my ancestors be blotted out as well.

I renounce the demons of Jezebel connected to these traits and ask you, Holy Spirit, that you help me on a daily basis to turn from these sins in my life.  Through the Holy Spirit I will live by God's standard of righteousness, holiness and conduct. Holy Spirit, I ask that you open my eyes and cause Your light to expose any darkness, and help me to walk in humility and truth. In Jesus Name. Amen

The Courts of Heaven Academy and Agape Christian Fellowship has a policy that all administrators and team members, and even those in training at the Academy who attend appointments of others, use this template as a guide to repent in a prayer meeting for any of the Jezebel sins in their lives. If all churches and Christian organizations did this, Jezebel would no longer have a place within the Body of Christ.

The Jezebel spirit must never be tolerated as stated in the Book of Revelation. When you see your children manifest any traits, teach them to repent even at an early age because it grieves the Holy Spirit when we don’t teach them in the ways of the Lord. This will help them to avoid being a victim of Jezebel later in life. 

Ahab Stronghold

King Ahab allowed Jezebel to influence his decisions and run his life. If you let someone with a Jezebel spirit influence you into doing something that you shouldn’t, it gives her a place in your life. Even if it sounds like a good idea, if they are using manipulation or flattery to convince you, and you agree, then it opens a door to Jezebel. When you do it often, it is an Ahab stronghold. 

Our own life should be examined for Jezebel first. Once we make sure we have removed any of her traits, we should make sure we do not have an Ahab stronghold. If we are drawn to those operating in Jezebel traits allowing ourselves to be led into sin or bad decisions, then we need to say an Ahab prayer. 

This prayer is just like the Jezebel prayer, but instead of being guilty of the sin, we are guilty of coming into agreement with those under the influence of Jezebel. The most common sins are manipulation, gossip, slander, and sexual sins, but any of the other sins may also be present. 

Ahab Prayer

Father, I acknowledge that I have yielded myself to the spirit of Jezebel. I come to you, humbling myself before you. I desire your standard of righteousness and holiness in my life. I ask you to forgive me for coming into agreement with the Jezebel spirit by tolerating it in others and letting them lead me away from Your ways. I confess that my ancestors were also wrong in tolerating this spirit and submitting to it in others. Please forgive me for every way I have opened myself up to this spirit by allowing those under the influence of Jezebel to influence me. Help me to keep from coming into agreement with this spirit in the future.

I confess that I was in agreement with those operating with Jezebel in the following sins. (use the list of traits and place the ones you have come into agreement with through others here)

Father, I am so very sorry for allowing Jezebel into my life by coming into agreement with others. I cover all of these sins with the blood of Jesus and ask that the sins of my ancestors related to these traits, also be covered with the blood and blotted out as well.

I renounce any demons of Jezebel connected to others whom I have come into agreement with. I ask you, Holy Spirit, that you help me on a daily basis keep from coming into agreement with anyone operating under the influence of Jezebel.  Through the Holy Spirit I will live by God's standard of righteousness, holiness and conduct. Holy Spirit, I ask that you open my eyes and cause Your light to expose any darkness, and help me to walk in humility and truth.  In Jesus Name. Amen

There is so much that can be taught about this evil spirit, but the key is to discern it in yourself first and repent and turn away from your sin. It’s better to confess a weakness to God before it gets rooted in your heart and the enemy has legal ground to attack you.

So submit to [the authority of] God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him] and he will flee from you. Come close to God [with a contrite heart] and He will come close to you… (James 4:7-8 AMP)

We know from experience that when you confess but do not repent (turn) from the sins you are guilty of, the situation gets worse. The same applies here. Several people have said this prayer, yet they still experience backlash because some of the Jezebel traits remain in their life. 

Jezebel Cleanse

Since the dawn of motion pictures, there has been a plethora of women role models who have iconic Jezebel traits. The acceptance and admiration of a promiscuous lifestyle and the indoctrination of women into "sexy" poses helped this spirit rise to a place of power in the world. Televisions and movie stars have taught us that a woman can get what she wants through manipulation, intimidation and sex appeal. 

We practice the way we look in a mirror, placing one foot in front of another, leaning a certain way, parting our lips in a come-hither fashion. When posing for a picture, you should ask yourself, am I trying to look good or sexy. We should pick out flattering clothes, but not ones that are revealing, and draw attention to our feminine form. These things will give Jezebel a place in our life.

Years of practice have ingrained these “traits” in us. Often we don’t even know that we are manipulating, exaggerating, or intimidating others.  It is a great test to say this prayer and see what happens. If all chaos breaks loose, like people verbally attacking you for no reason or if more than one appliance or electronic device of yours breaks down, or you feel like you are under an attack from this spirit, it means there is an open door somewhere. You will need to find out where the door is and close it. In many cases, it can take 30 days or more of trying to remove Jezebel traits before we can successfully turn from them. I have come to refer to this as a Jezebel Cleanse. 

Sometimes it can be difficult to detect how you are operating with Jezebel. We have gathered scriptures about the traits to help you grow and understand them better. Look for them at the back of this book and on the website link in the class. You will need to look at the list and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal where the spirit may have gained access in your life.

We received a testimony from one of our Agape Team Members concerning Jezebel and the 30 day cleanse: 

I have suffered from asthma all of my life. My first attack was when I was 5 days old and continued throughout my life. Asthma is one of those things that runs through my family (think generational curse).  

This year I have really been going through carefully and looking at generational curses and the Jezebel spirit. Really going in and being very specific and diving into a lot as the Holy Spirit led me. I had a lot of unforgiveness and things that I did not know I harbored. I have repented of my Jezebel traits and for allowing the traits from others around me, influence my life. I had become an Ahab without knowing it.  

God is so good and merciful. I had not prayed about the asthma in a long time, but had always felt he would heal me when the time was right. Earlier this year, I knew I was finally healed. I live in Colorado and 5 miles away from my home was the biggest wildfire that this state has ever known. For months, the entire area was covered in ash. People that do not have asthma were struggling to breathe. 

The other day someone asked me why I was not having any issues other than a little eye redness and occasionally some hay fever. They couldn’t figure out why I had not had problems when they had struggled to breathe. This person also knew that I had lived in another area that had had smoke for months and really struggled that time. I was able to witness that I had been healed.  

I have seen healing in my health, finances and so many other areas. I started the 30-day Jezebel challenge and I encourage each of you to do it as well. For the next month, really let the Holy Spirit guide you and take a hard look at all areas of your life. Each day go through the Jezebel traits and repent for each one. It is amazing how there are so many little things we allow and often do not know it.  

My journey was not an easy one and there has been a lot of difficult soul searching and routing out very deep issues. I had been on a bed of sickness and attacks that would end for a little while would then return. If this has been your experience, you might be healed or have finances restored for a time, but then you find you are struggling again, you could be experiencing the impact of the Jezebel spirit. If this is you, please join me and start your own 30-day Jezebel challenge.

Gail J.

Gail’s breakthrough came with a very patient application of what she had learned. There was no prayer, no spiritual warfare, no trip to the Courts, just time listening to the Holy Spirit and removing what God didn’t want in her life. The next Courts of Heaven Academy workbook will help you understand more about how to hear from the Holy Spirit and clear out what may be blocking you from connecting more with Him, your Counselor, so that you can do the same!

Operating in the Traits

There are two main ways Jezebel may retain a foothold to attack us: 

• Did you operate in one of the traits?
• Did you respond to someone in your social or family circle who did? 

If you are giving in to either of these, the Jezebel spirit will still have a place in your life. It is easy to take care of Jezebel “slip-ups” as the Holy Spirit points them out. After saying the Jezebel prayer, the Holy Spirit may whisper a thought to you which sounds much like your normal subconscious thoughts such as: “You know you exaggerated,” or “Did you manipulate the situation?” If this happens you must do the following:

• Confess that you have sinned. You must see what you did as wrong. 
• State your intention to stop acting in this way and ask the Holy Spirit to help you.
• Plead the blood over the sin. 
• Thank the Lord for contending for you in the Courts and removing charges against you.

This will keep Jezebel from regaining a place in your life.

Binding Jezebel

Once you have come out of agreement with Jezebel, it is up to you to remain free of the traits. If family members operate with this spirit, it can be quite challenging to not come into agreement with them. Praise God, He has sent a Helper. 

Before you interact with someone whom the Lord is still freeing from Jezebel, simply state: 

Holy Spirit, Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world. I ask that you bind any spirit from speaking to me today through (name of person.) 

If the person still displays the traits of Jezebel, it means there is an open door in your own life. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal it to you. 

This prayer is very effective. A student in the Academy had some interesting results from binding this spirit after he had removed it from his life:

I came across Agape on Facebook when searching Courts of Heaven as I had become acquainted with the Courts with another organization. My marriage at the time was overcoming severe problems. We had a Christian marriage ceremony and my wife said that she was a Christian when we met. As I was coming closer to the Lord and learning His ways I realized that my spouse could possibly benefit by me trying to intercede on her behalf.

When I got to the Jezebel class, I realized what the problem in my marriage was. I had often wondered why I attracted the same type of women (this issue turned out to be a generational curse that was revealed by the Holy Spirit and dealt with over a period of time by repentance).

I won't go into too many details but the background from my wife’s heritage is some charismatic practices and cultures which don't line up with the Lord and His ways. Our relationship began in sin with me not divorced from my first marriage (Buddhist ceremony) and my current wife not divorced from an Islamic paper marriage of convenience. This was a classic Jezebel/Ahab relationship that needed to be overcome.

Some time into the relationship my spouse was displaying many characteristics on the Jezebel list as well as saying some things that really disturbed me such as “I am a daughter of Satan.” 

Anyway back to the Jezebel class, after talking with Agape Advisors in the CoH Academy I started doing the 30 day Jezebel cleanse. I asked the Lord to bind Jezebel in my presence each day, hoping that this would give an opportunity for her true character to have a chance to come out and seek the Lord.
Within the first week my wife stopped eating any food or drinks that I prepared.
Then started sitting on the opposite end of the couch. 
The next week she always stayed on the opposite side of the house and the opposite side of the bed.
By the third week she moved out of the house completely.
Afterward, on two occasions, she said she couldn't breathe in the house at that time.

I have found that I must be vigilant to keep this spirit out of my life. Being free of Jezebel is a journey, but I’m grateful to be walking that road. 

This testimony brings to light several key components of attaining freedom from this spirit. We can bind Jezebel, but only on a daily basis after we are free from it ourselves. Once the spirit is removed, it will come looking to have its place back. 

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walks through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he said, I will return to my house from where I came out. And when he comes, he finds it swept and garnished. Then goes he, and takes to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. (Luke 11:24-26, Matthew 12:43-45 AKJV)

If a spirit has a place in our lives through agreement with others, once those people have been removed, we have found those individuals or others with that same spirit will show up trying to get a place in our lives. We must be diligent in keeping this spirit from our lives. Freedom is often a process, like peeling an onion, it comes off in layers. Removing Jezebel is only the beginning of the journey to total transformation and healing which will occur in the months following the Jezebel cleanse. 

All of the testimonies we have shared are a few among many that we have received about the freedom that has been gained by applying the principles in the Courts of Heaven Academy. We hope that you will consider beginning classes online with us.

Believers' Boot Camp series

Why Doesn't God

Speak to Me?

Keys to Authority

for Every Believer

Roadmap to Heaven

Destroying Curses
in the Courts of Heaven

Many people think of boot camp as a place you train for combat. Any veteran will tell you that basic training is about three things:

• Knowing what weapons are available 
• Learning how to use those weapons 
• Receiving orders and following them 

Believer’s Boot Camp series is a collection of books which teach us how to hear more clearly from God with the goal to ready ourselves for a face-to-face meeting with our Lord, Jesus. The series reveals the “weapons and tools” God has given us and how to use them, so we can bring God’s kingdom to Earth. Each book in the series focuses on a single topic to clearly define one tool or weapon from our Heavenly Father. 

The series uses the Word of God to reveal all that He has given us through Jesus. The Bible is our instruction manual and the Holy Spirit is our guide to understanding it.

Why Doesn't God Speak to Me?

Eager hearts cry out, hoping for a single word to confirm that He hears us. Yet, many times the only sound is silence. Over the years I have heard several reasons why God speaks to some and not to others. One night, as I tossed and turned, I brought each of these reasons before the Lord, stating why each of them did not line up with who I thought He was. 

Words rose from my soul, pleading for Him to reveal why He has remained silent when a single word from Him would mean so much to so many. For the next few hours, God used things I learned about years ago and things I had just discovered to show why He talks to some and why He doesn’t, and in demonstrative ways. 

In His grace, He also showed me how people could hear more from Him. Basic instructions on how to hear more from God and how to be led by Him are included in this book. Thank you for taking time to consider the answers I received and share with you now.

Keys to Authority for Every Believer

There is untapped power that is easy for every Christian to access in the form of authority. The keys to this authority will unlock weapons we can use to free ourselves from the attacks of the enemy. We must be intimately aware of the bounds and limitations of our weapon if they are to be used effectively.
