Hidden Manipulation

God sent me a dream in which I explained to my biological sister and her husband (the husband is often Jesus), what exactly is manipulation and why it is wrong. I knew that this was for my Christian brothers and sisters. Here is what the Lord showed me in this dream:

Anytime you present facts in a way that you feel it will help you achieve a goal, this is manipulation and a spirit can become attached and begin manipulating you. It is one of the traits of a Jezebel class of spirits. (Read about Jezebel CLICK HERE)
We often think of manipulation as something pretty or sexy women do to men. Actually, there is so much more to this destructive habit that many Christians have. Manipulating is when you are trying to:

1. Make things look worse to get help (exaggeration)
2. Make things look better to impress someone (boasting)
3. Present things in a way to convince someone that you are right.

These are the three most prevalent forms of manipulation. When you do these things, you are actually saying that you don't trust God to provide for you what you need. If you are walking with Him, His favor should open every door you need to walk through. Jesus explained it this way:

But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne: Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King. (Matthew 5:34-35)

Simply put, the Lord is saying, just let your words be honest and trust the Lord to do the rest.

“Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ Anything more comes from the evil one.” (Matthew 5:36)

Manipulation gives a spirit access to your life. This can create a generational curse: if you see your kids doing it, look and see if you are doing it in small ways. You should also not respond to people who are manipulating you, this opens the door for that spirit to come into your life because you are listening to someone who is operating through a spirit that isn’t from God.

This can be a very hard habit to break, but the Holy Spirit is able to help you. Look for Him to give you warning that you are pushing to get your way or manipulating a situation, so you can repent and plead the blood over those actions right away. Your words should be straightforward with no exaggerations or embellishments.

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?

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 1 

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

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 2

 

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.

 

Destroying Curses in the Courts of Heaven

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 3

Our rights to appear in the Courts of Heaven have been greatly undervalued. The missing key to our authority is here. Jesus has provided the access and the Bible shows us the court procedures. When we learn to operate in our rightful place as children of the Most High, the enemy will be defeated and we will see the victory we have prayed for.

The death of Jesus freed us from the curse of the law. However, we must declare this freedom just as we must make a declaration for our salvation.

• Can curses be passed to our children?
• What are signs of a curse?
• How do you get rid of one?

Every answer is backed by scripture. Come and find out how easy it is to be free!

Roadmap to Heaven

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 4

As I meditated and sought the Lord, a vision overcame me. A “Roadmap to Heaven” was deposited into my soul. We are entering a season of unparalleled access to Heaven. Jesus is calling all who are His to visit with Him in the Secret Place of the Most High.

• What is the Secret Place?

• How do we enter?

• What will we find there?

The Bible holds the answers, the mystery has been revealed. As you use the map given in this book to journey to the Secret Place, discover your destiny and find the gifts the Holy Spirit will bring along the way.
