Unity is necessary for the fullness of times to manifest.

Paul wrote in Ephesians chapter 1 as given to him by The Holy Spirit:

3  Every Spiritual blessing in the Heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a Love gift from our wonderful Heavenly Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus—all because He sees us wrapped into Christ. This is why we celebrate Him with all our hearts!

This mystery was revealed in about 60 A.D. yet I did not see it for decades.  He already deposited within me sufficient gifts and the anointing for me to fulfill my calling.  This is true for you as well.  If we will embrace this revelation and Truth, we will be able to finally come into full unity!  What separates us now?  It is soulish opinions rather than absolute Truth given by The Holy Spirit.

4  And He chose us to be His very own, joining us to Himself even before He laid the foundation of the universe! Because of His great Love, He ordained us, so that we would be seen as Holy in His Eyes with an unstained innocence.

5-6 For it was always in His Perfect Plan to adopt us as His delightful children, through our union with Jesus, the Anointed One, so that His tremendous Love that cascades over us would glorify His grace—for the same Love He has for His Beloved One, Jesus, He has for us. And this unfolding plan brings Him great pleasure!

7 Since we are now joined to Christ, we have been given the treasures of redemption by His blood—the total cancellation of our sins—all because of the cascading riches of His grace.

8 This superabundant grace is already powerfully working in us, releasing within us all forms of Wisdom and practical understanding.

9 And through the revelation of the Anointed One, He unveiled His secret desires to us—the hidden mystery of His long-range plan, which He was delighted to implement from the very beginning of time.

10  And because of God’s unfailing purpose, this detailed plan will reign supreme through every period of time until the fulfillment of all the ages finally reaches its climax—when God makes all things new in all of heaven and earth through Jesus Christ.

In other words, His plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in Him, things in Heaven and things on earth, to unite us with those in Heaven.

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 6:

6  But whenever you pray, go into your innermost chamber and be alone with Father God, praying to Him in secret. And your Father, Who sees all you do, will reward you openly.

7 When you pray, there is no need to repeat empty phrases, praying like those who don’t know God, for they expect God to hear them because of their many words.

8 There is no need to imitate them, since your Father already knows what you need before you ask Him.

9 Pray like this: ‘Our Father, dwelling in the Heavenly realms, may the glory of Your Name be the center on which our lives turn.

10 Manifest Your Kingdom realm, and cause Your every purpose to be fulfilled on earth, just as it is fulfilled in Heaven.

11 We acknowledge you as our Provider of all we need each day.

12 Forgive us the wrongs we have done as we ourselves release forgiveness to those who have wronged us.

13 Rescue us every time we face tribulation and set us free from evil. For You are the King Who rules with power and glory forever. Amen.’

14 “And when you pray, make sure you forgive the faults of others so that your Father in Heaven will also forgive you.

15 But if you withhold forgiveness from others, your Father withholds forgiveness from you.”  TPT

Unity will occur when HIS Kingdom comes to the earth.  When I am fully aligned and totally embrace all aspects of FATHER’S Kingdom including HIS Word and HIS SPIRIT, then I am in complete unity with Heaven.  If you do the same, then we are also in total unity.  This is what mature Sons and Daughters do.  This unity will usher in the fullness of times throughout the earth.  THY KINGDOM COME!

Who owns the tithe?  What is its purpose?

Are you willing to pray and receive the understanding of what Paul prayed in Ephesians chapter 1 as given to him by The Holy Spirit:

18   I pray that the light of God will illuminate the eyes of your imagination, flooding you with light, until you experience the full revelation of the hope of His calling—that is, the wealth of God’s glorious inheritances that He finds in us, His Holy ones!

The first place FATHER established relationship with man was in the Garden.  In the Garden, FATHER placed a tree that was to be restricted from Adam and Eve.  Why?  To establish that FATHER is GOD, and they weren’t.  FATHER can handle both good and evil and still do good.  They couldn’t.  FATHER is the superior One in the relationship, and we should never forget it.  Moreover, we are to continuously be conscious of this reality.  One vital aspect of this Truth is the tithe.

Wisdom recorded in Proverbs chapter 3:

9   Glorify God with all your wealth, honoring HIM with your very best, with every increase that comes to you.  TPT

WHO owns all the wealth?  FATHER does, yet HE established provision for us before we were formed in the womb.  The tithe establishes and reaffirms our relationship with FATHER.  This is why HE is to receive the firstfruits, not the last.

Finances were earmarked for you before you were born.  Your finances yet to be received are currently in the wrong hands and it is up to you to take dominion over those finances.  The first step is to acknowledge the source of those finances by the tithe.

All the good works in Christ were predestined before the earth was formed thus there is no question of finances being set aside on your behalf.  If you don’t have enough faith to tithe on $100, how do you expect to release a $1,000 from the wrong hands?

Jesus spoke in Luke chapter 19:

11  At this time Jesus was getting close to entering Jerusalem. The crowds that followed Him were convinced that God’s kingdom realm would fully manifest when Jesus established it in Jerusalem.

12 So He told them this story to change their perspective: “Once there was a wealthy prince who left his province to travel to a distant land, where he would be crowned king and then return.

13 Before he departed he summoned his ten servants together and said, ‘I am entrusting each of you with fifty thousand dollars to trade with while I am away. Invest it and put the money to work until I return.’

14 “Some of his countrymen despised the prince and sent a delegation after him to declare before the royals, ‘We refuse to let this man rule over us! He will not be our king!’

15 “Nevertheless, he was crowned king and returned to his land. Then he summoned his ten servants to see how much each one had earned and what their profits came to.

16 “The first one came forward and said, ‘Master, I took what you gave me and invested it, and it multiplied ten times.’

17 “‘Splendid! You have done well, my excellent servant. Because you have shown that you can be trusted in this small matter, I now grant you authority to rule over ten fortress cities.’

18 “The second came and said, ‘Master, what you left with me has multiplied five times.’

19 “His master said, ‘I also grant you authority in my kingdom over five fortress cities.’

20 “Another came before the king and said, ‘Master, here is the money you entrusted to me. I hid it for safekeeping.

21 You see, I live in fear of you, for everyone knows you are a strict master and impossible to please. You push us for a high return on all that you own, and you always want to gain from someone else’s efforts.’

22 “The king said, ‘You wicked servant! I will judge you using your own words. If what you said about me is true, that I am a harsh man, pushing you for a high return and wanting gain from others’ efforts,

23 why didn’t you at least put my money in the bank to earn some interest on what I entrusted to you?’

24 “The king said to his other servants, ‘Take the money he has and give it to the faithful servant who multiplied my money ten times over.’

25 “‘But master,’ the other servants objected, ‘why give it to him? He already has so much!’

26 “‘Yes,’ replied the king. ‘But to all who have been faithful, even more will be given them. And for the ones who have nothing, even the little they seem to have will be taken from them.

27 Now, bring all those rebellious enemies of mine who rejected me as their king—bring them here before me and execute them!’”

If you don’t tithe, it is because you have not sincerely asked that the “eyes of your understanding” be enlightened.  This Truth may offend some but time is short and those who have ears to hear will make the necessary changes to come into full maturity in the relationship with FATHER.  Your soul may fight you concerning the tithe but this is where you must take a stand.  Which realm do you want to walk in?

My wife and I tithe every month into Servias Ministries.  Why?  I know that it is the purest distribution channel I am aware of.  Since its inception in 2006, Servias has never paid a payroll.  This is why I am free to write the uncompromising Word given to me by The Holy Spirit.  No one controls the purse strings.  Contributions don’t make or break the organization as in most churches. 

It is time to be open with you concerning money.  My wife and I don’t need contributions because FATHER has blessed us exceedingly.  The poor and the needy are the ones whom FATHER is interested in Servias supporting by the tithes and contributions.  My wife and I are willing vessels thus we look forward to helping those in need.  As we do, FATHER adds to us because HE can trust us with more, similar to the faithful stewards in the above passage.

Do you Love FATHER enough to give HIM your firstfruits which are actually HIS?

I am just the messenger!

Are you in agreement with Heaven?  When did The Plan begin?

The following passage of revelation given to Paul by Our Lord Jesus Christ is one of the most important chapters we should dwell on.  Within it is packed tremendous revelation for those willing to dwell on each verse.  It is crucial to our maturity in Christ, the Anointed One.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1:

3   Every spiritual blessing in the Heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a Love gift from our wonderful Heavenly Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus—all because He sees us wrapped into Christ. This is why we celebrate Him with all our hearts!

4 And He chose us to be His very own, joining us to Himself even before He laid the foundation of the universe! Because of His great Love, He ordained us, so that we would be seen as Holy in His eyes with an unstained innocence.

5-6 For it was always in His perfect plan to adopt us as His delightful children, through our union with Jesus, the Anointed One, so that His tremendous Love that cascades over us would glorify His grace—for the same Love He has for His Beloved One, Jesus, He has for us. And this unfolding plan brings Him great pleasure!

7 Since we are now joined to Christ, we have been given the treasures of redemption by His Blood—the total cancellation of our sins—all because of the cascading riches of His grace.

8 This superabundant grace is already powerfully working in us, releasing within us all forms of wisdom and practical understanding.

9 And through the revelation of the Anointed One, He unveiled His secret desires to us—the hidden mystery of His long-range plan, which He was delighted to implement from the very beginning of time.

10 And because of God’s unfailing purpose, this detailed plan will reign supreme through every period of time until the fulfillment of all the ages finally reaches its climax—when God makes all things new in all of Heaven and earth through Jesus Christ.

11 Through our union with Christ we too have been claimed by God as His own inheritance. Before we were even born, He gave us our destiny; that we would fulfill the plan of God Who always accomplishes every purpose and plan in His heart.

12 God’s purpose was that we Jews, who were the first to long for the Messianic hope, would be the first to believe in the Anointed One and bring great praise and glory to God!

13 And because of Him, when you who are not Jews heard the revelation of Truth, you believed in the wonderful news of salvation. Now we have been stamped with the Seal of the promised Holy Spirit.

14 He is given to us like an engagement ring is given to a bride, as the first installment of what’s coming! He is our hope-promise of a future inheritance which seals us until we have all of redemption’s promises and experience complete freedom—all for the supreme glory and honor of God!

15 Because of this, since I first heard about your strong faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and your tender Love toward all His devoted ones,

16 my heart is always full and overflowing with thanks to God for you as I constantly remember you in my prayers.

17 I pray that the Father of glory, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, would impart to you the riches of the Spirit of Wisdom and the Spirit of revelation to know Him through your deepening intimacy with Him.

18 I pray that the light of God will illuminate the eyes of your imagination, flooding you with light, until you experience the full revelation of the hope of his calling—that is, the wealth of God’s glorious inheritances that he finds in us, his holy ones!

19 I pray that you will continually experience the immeasurable greatness of God’s power made available to you through faith. Then your lives will be an advertisement of this immense power as it works through you! This is the mighty power

20 that was released when God raised Christ from the dead and exalted Him to the place of highest honor and supreme authority in the Heavenly realm!

21 And now He is exalted as first above every ruler, authority, government, and realm of power in existence! He is gloriously enthroned over every name that is ever praised, not only in this age, but in the age that is coming!

22 And He alone is the Leader and Source of everything needed in the church. God has put everything beneath the authority of Jesus Christ and has given Him the highest rank above all others.

23 And now we, His church, are His Body on the earth and that which fills him who is being filled by it!

When did FATHER, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit decide to provide us the solutions to all of our challenges?  Before the beginning of time.  When did Jesus agree to shed His Blood for us?  Before the beginning of time.  When did They think of placing you and me on this earth at this time? Before the beginning of time.  Dwell on this Truth and reality.

One more witness:

1 Peter 1:20
This was part of God’s plan, for He was chosen and destined for this before the foundation of the earth was laid, but He has been made manifest in these last days for you.

Watch your words!  We should only speak life.

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 12:

36   You can be sure of this: when the day of judgment comes, everyone will be held accountable for every careless word he has spoken.

37 Your very words will be used as evidence against you, and your words will declare you either innocent or guilty.”

Careless words are idle, useless, inactive, fruitless, or barren.

Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Peter chapter 1:

5  So devote yourselves to lavishly supplementing your faith with goodness, and to goodness add understanding,

6 and to understanding add the strength of self-control, and to self-control add patient endurance, and to patient endurance add Godliness,

7 and to Godliness add mercy toward your brothers and sisters, and to mercy toward others add unending Love.

8 Since these virtues are already planted deep within, and you possess them in abundant supply, they will keep you from being inactive or fruitless in your pursuit of knowing Jesus Christ more intimately.

Our words create pictures in our mind.  We envision or imagine the picture our word creates.  FATHER made us this way so that we could and should use our imagination in believing HIM for resources we need.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 11:

1 Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen.

Hope is equivalent to imagination, envisioning what you are believing for.  Faith provides the expectation of transition from the unseen to the seen.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

6  And without faith living within us it would be impossible to please God. For we come to God in faith knowing that HE is real and that HE rewards the faith of those who give all their passion and strength into seeking HIM.

We need to see HIM as being a Rewarder.  Seeking HIM diligently is seeing HIM high and lifted up.

It is written by THE SPIRIT in Isaiah chapter 61:

1  In the year that King Uzziah died, I clearly saw The Lord. HE was seated on HIS exalted Throne, towering high above me. HIS long, flowing Robe of splendor spread throughout the templet.

2 Standing above HIM were the angels of flaming fire, each with six wings: with two wings they covered their faces in reverence, with two wings they covered their feet, and with two wings they flew.

3 And one called out to another, saying: “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God, Commander of Angel Armies! The whole earth is filled with HIS glory!”

4 The thunderous voice of the fiery angels caused the foundations of the thresholds to tremble as the cloud of glory filled the temple!

Is this Who you see when you seek FATHER?  Our faith is IN HIM, the ALMIGHTY ONE… Mighty over all!

We need to see HIM (image HIM) based on how HE describes HIMSELF in Scripture.  Once we move toward this fulfillment, our faith will be deemed great faith and there will be no doubt.

Who was the musician?

First, read the following passage.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in 2^nd Kings chapter 3:

1  Now Jehoram the son of Ahab became king over Israel at Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.

2  And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, but not like his father and mother; for he put away the sacred pillar of Baal that his father had made.

3 Nevertheless he persisted in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin; he did not depart from them.

4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheepbreeder, and he regularly paid the king of Israel one hundred thousand lambs and the wool of one hundred thousand rams.

5 But it happened, when Ahab died, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.

6 So King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time and mustered all Israel.

7 Then he went and sent to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?” And he said, “I will go up; I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”

8 Then he said, “Which way shall we go up?” And he answered, “By way of the Wilderness of Edom.”

9 So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom, and they marched on that roundabout route seven days; and there was no water for the army, nor for the animals that followed them.

10 And the king of Israel said, “Alas! For the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”

11 But Jehoshaphat said, “Is there no prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of the LORD by him?” So one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, “Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.”

12 And Jehoshaphat said, “The Word of the LORD is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.

13 Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father and the prophets of your mother.” But the king of Israel said to him, “No, for the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”

14 And Elisha said, “As the LORD of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not look at you, nor see you.

15 But now bring me a musician.” Then it happened, when the musician played, that the hand of the LORD came upon him.

16 And he said, “Thus says the LORD: ‘Make this valley full of ditches.’

17 For thus says the LORD: ‘You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, so that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.’

18 And this is a simple matter in the sight of the LORD; He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.

19 Also you shall attack every fortified city and every choice city, and shall cut down every good tree, and stop up every spring of water, and ruin every good piece of land with stones.”

20 Now it happened in the morning, when the grain offering was offered, that suddenly water came by way of Edom, and the land was filled with water.

21 And when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, all who were able to bear arms and older were gathered; and they stood at the border.

22 Then they rose up early in the morning, and the sun was shining on the water; and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood.

23 And they said, “This is blood; the kings have surely struck swords and have killed one another; now therefore, Moab, to the spoil!”

24 So when they came to the camp of Israel, Israel rose up and attacked the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they entered their land, killing the Moabites.

25 Then they destroyed the cities, and each man threw a stone on every good piece of land and filled it; and they stopped up all the springs of water and cut down all the good trees. But they left the stones of Kir Haraseth intact. However the slingers surrounded and attacked it.

26 And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too fierce for him, he took with him seven hundred men who drew swords, to break through to the king of Edom, but they could not.

27 Then he took his eldest son who would have reigned in his place, and offered him as a burnt offering upon the wall; and there was great indignation against Israel. So they departed from him and returned to their own land.

Elisha had “The Word of THE LORD” with him yet he needed a musician to help bring the Prophetic Word to overcome the enemy.  The anointing needed by Elisha did not arrive until the musician broke through the spiritual blockade.  This shows us the need for the right music at the right time by the right vessel.  Let us not downplay the role of music and musicians who are called by THE LORD to breakthrough strongholds during spiritual warfare.

The name of the musician was not important but his anointing to play the four-stringed instrument was!

Spirit-filled Words impart deliverance in all areas of life, no exceptions.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Psalm chapter 107:

20  God spoke the Words “Be healed,” and we were healed, delivered from death’s door!

FATHER’S Words impart life, health, and restoration.  There is absolutely no unbelief in HIS Words.

Jesus spoke in John chapter 6:

63  “The Holy Spirit is the One Who gives Life, that which is of the natural realm is of no help. The Words I speak to you are Spirit and Life. But there are still some of you who won’t believe.”

This is why I have so many Scripture references in my writings.  I am not interested in conveying an opinion when I can simply provide Truth to the reader directed to me by The Holy Spirit.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 6:

13   So then, refuse to answer its call to surrender your body as a tool for wickedness. Instead, passionately answer God’s call to keep yielding your body to Him as one who has now experienced resurrection Life! You live now for His pleasure, ready to be used for His noble purpose.

We are to live for HIS pleasure, not any other.  We are to be a blessing and example to mankind as a light unto the world.  Our motives are to be pure rather than attempting to manipulate as the world does.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 3:

14    So I kneel humbly in awe before the Father of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah,

15 the perfect Father of every father and child in heaven and on the earth.

16 And I pray that He would unveil within you the unlimited riches of His glory and favor until Supernatural strength floods your innermost being with His Divine might and explosive power.

17 Then, by constantly using your faith, the Life of Christ will be released deep inside you, and the resting place of His Love will become the very Source and Root of your life.

You cannot release something you don’t already have.  This revelation is vital to our understanding of what it takes to walk in the power and authority given to us by FATHER.  It was imparted when we received Christ and The Holy Spirit Who now dwells inside us. 

18-19 Then you will be empowered to discover what every Holy one experiences—the great magnitude of the astonishing Love of Christ in all Its dimensions. How deeply intimate and far-reaching is His Love! How enduring and inclusive It is! Endless Love beyond measurement that transcends our understanding—this extravagant Love pours into you until you are filled to overflowing with the fullness of God!

20 Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and accomplish all this. He will achieve infinitely more than your greatest request, your most unbelievable dream, and exceed your wildest imagination! He will outdo them all, for His miraculous power constantly energizes you.

What keeps us from walking in His miraculous power?  We need to tell our mind, will, emotions, and body to conform to The Word!  As we renew our minds, release and impartation occur.

FATHER’S Resurrection power lives in you and is waiting to be accessed.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:

11   Yes, God raised Jesus to Life! And since God’s Spirit of Resurrection lives in you, He will also raise your dying body to Life by the same Spirit that breathes Life into you!

You and I have been fully accepted by FATHER and we are now HIS Sons and Daughters.  Prior to that full acceptance, the world promoted rejection and abandonment in each of us to keep us in control.  This is just one aspect of manipulation by the adversary. 

Ignorance of the Truth caused us to be in a constant performance-based walk, never being good enough.  There was always someone better, bigger, stronger, more beautiful, smarter, etc.  The Truth is you and I are unique and have separate, important callings given to us by GOD before we were formed in the womb.  There are no unimportant gifts or impartations.

Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in his 1^st epistle chapter 4:

7  Since we are approaching the end of all things, be intentional, purposeful, and self-controlled so that you can be given to prayer.

8 Above all, constantly echo God’s intense Love for one another, for Love will be a canopy over a multitude of sins.

9 Be compassionate to foreigners without complaining.

10 Every believer has received grace gifts, so use them to serve one another as faithful stewards of the many-colored tapestry of God’s grace.

11 For example, if you have a speaking gift, speak as though God were speaking His Words through you. If you have the gift of serving, do it passionately with the strength God gives you, so that in everything God alone will be glorified through Jesus Christ. For to Him belong the power and the glory forever throughout all ages! Amen.

How close are we to the “end of all things”?  It looks to be very close so each of us must decide with what group we are to be counted: wise virgins or foolish virgins.  As for me and my wife, we will continue to focus more intently in being led by The Holy Spirit in all areas.

Jesus spoke in John chapter 16:

13   But when the Truth-giving Spirit comes, He will unveil the reality of every Truth within you. He won’t speak His own message, but only what He hears from the Father, and He will reveal prophetically to you what is to come.

The Holy Spirit leads us into ALL TRUTH which comes from FATHER.  HE will give you discernment concerning the lies being spewed out by the world and will lead you to fully walk in Truth rather than to be manipulated by lies.

We are to serve one another in Agape Love.  At the same time, we are not to be ignorant of the devices of the devil.  We are to walk in Resurrection power to the point where we become clear testimonies that glorify Jesus.  Now is the time to activate hope and see in your mind’s eye that Resurrection power inside of you coming forth to minister!

Don’t be deceived by the spirits who challenge your peace and walk.

It is written by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 16:

16   One day, as we were going to the house of prayer, we encountered a young slave girl who had an evil spirit of divination, the spirit of Python. She had earned great profits for her owners by being a fortune-teller.

17 She kept following us, shouting, “These men are servants of the Great High God, and they’re telling us how to be saved!”

18 Day after day she continued to do this, until Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit indwelling her, “I command you in the Name of Jesus, the Anointed One, to come out of her, now!” At that very moment, the spirit came out of her!

In the religious context of Greek mythology, she was an “oracle,” a medium who had the spirit of the gods speaking through her to foretell the future. The Python spirit was the epithet of Apollo, known as the Greek god of prophecy. An individual (often a young virgin) who became the oracle of Apollo was known as the Python, or Pythia.

Paul exercised the power and authority given to him by Jesus Who also gave us that same power and authority.  Note that the girl did speak the Truth about Paul and Silas yet she was interrupting their ministry.

This is the authority Jesus spoke of when He declared in Mark chapter 16:

15  And He said to them, “As you go into all the world, preach openly the wonderful news of the Gospel to the entire human race!

16 Whoever believes the Good News and is baptized will be saved, and whoever does not believe the Good News will be condemned.

17 And these miracle signs will accompany those who believe: They will drive out demons in the power of My Name. They will speak in Tongues.

18 They will be supernaturally protected from snakes and from drinking anything poisonous. And they will lay hands on the sick and heal them.”

Do you see yourself driving out demons yet and healing the sick?  If not, you have yet to reach full maturity.  Perfect Love casts out fear and so we should not be reluctant to cast out demons when confronted by them.  They know who is fearful and who isn’t.  As The Word permeates our soul, Love will remove all reluctance to confront the enemy.  That power and authority will be activated and rise up.  Further, we will be more compassionate to people being plagued by those demons and look to set them free.  Amen!
