Summary: If God already knows who His sheep are , then the same must be true about the goats,

This past week in our studies of Job , the topic was surrounded with the wicked of the world .
Job 24:1“Why doesn’t the Almighty bring the wicked to judgment?
Why must the godly wait for him in vain?
If God already knows who His sheep are , then the same must be true about the goats,
That God knows who the wicked are and He knows who He is going to condemn on Judgment day .
Then why does God allow the wicked to flourish, and why does He wait so long to punish them.
So I have discovered this with this about Spiritual war fare ,
That Satan doesn’t get much satisfaction of easy prey, those who sin on a regular, and don’t acknowledge Christ need very little effort.
What Satan does is make a priority to go after the highest, the most powerful, the most influential , the most Christ devoted.
Jesus seeks after the most lost , the most vile , repulsive sinners gaining the most ground , weakening the kingdom of darkness .
Satan does His best unleashing a vile disgusting Spirit
Born again Christians are able to identify temptations as demonic actions, and as James said resist the devil and he will flee. That’s if you can are alert
Because one of the greatest weapons in the Satan’s war chest is the Jezebel Spirit
There is only one devil , one Satan , but there are many demonic Spirits.
The Jezebel Spirit comes along side its prey, and is so cunning and so manipulative that it actually attracts her victim to herself.
If you are having trouble in your relationships, marriages, family
Experiencing unexplained conflicts, disagreements and arguments without any explanation.
Frustrations in your career ,you just feel trapped and feel sabotaged
You feel weakened in your prayer life,
That you have been drawn away from prayer routines, attacks on your faith your study
You are being targeted by the Jezebel Spirit .
The Jezebel Spirit is the nastiest, evil, most disgusting, cunning, and seductive spirit.
She works by manipulating the truth just enough to corrupt it without its host even realizing it .
The Jezebel Spirits goal is to disrupt ever aspect of your life even without your knowledge
This evil spirit has been responsible for tearing down churches, pastors, and ending countless Christian ministries,
She is responsible for breaking up marriages, friendships,
She destroys careers, businesses, and wrecks havoc in your future
She manipulates people to break laws and commit crimes especially crimes of passion .
Apostle Paul recognized the infiltration of this demonic presence
2 Corinthians11: 13For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.
Jezebel in the Old Testament was after power she sought to destroy those who stood in her way
She attached herself to king Ahab, she opposed Yahweh and soon had corrupted the entire nation , and has an altar set up to Baal
She was felt threatened that she would get found out that she killed all the prophets .
She once murdered a neighbor for his land , and her vanity was so great that just before she would meet her demise she put on all her makeup and fixed her hair
Jezebel has stamped her name on history as the representative of all that is disgusting , crafty, malicious, revengeful and cruel.
So, think again: What does Jezebel look like ?
Male or female, a Jezebelite—meaning a person who is influenced or dominated by this spirit—is a subtle seducer. And the key word is subtle.
If Jezebel were obvious, no one would ever be fooled.
A Jezebelite usually has a charismatic personality that draws people away from their family, friends and Christ.
This Spirit will agree with everything that you are enduring .
Agreeing that breaking up your marriage is for the best ,
That its about time to start thinking about your own happiness
Convincing you in every aspect that you deserve better that life owes you
That quitting your job is the smart thing to do.
In the church she is busy caressing the egos of the leadership ,while convincing members that they are being overlooked and they should have a higher position , Attacking pastors and ministries even sabotaging praise team
She is the worshipper of Baal , the god of nature . Ba‘al religion revolves around the cycles of nature, for survival and prosperity and fertility , growing crops or raising livestock, as well as the growth of human populations.
She is responsible for much of the hypocrisy we find in the church today ,
