1 Timothy 4:1-2 AMP
BUT THE [Holy] Spirit distinctly and expressly declares that in latter times some will turn away from the faith, giving attention to deluding and seducing spirits and doctrines that demons teach, through the hypocrisy and pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared (cauterized), who forbid people to marry and [teach them] to abstain from [certain kinds of] foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and have [an increasingly clear] knowledge of the truth.
The information Paul was giving to Timothy in this chapter is so relevant for today. The body of Christ is suffering from teachings that are from the pits of hell. The question is, “How is this happening?” Religion! You see the church has allowed the religious spirit to crawl its way in like a snake and setup shop. With this spirit in control, it begins to pump its messages from hell into leaders, convincing them that it is the bible truth when it’s not. Paul told Timothy that in the last days, doctrines or teachings of demons would be released. What are these teachings? Fear, Infirmity, Doubt, Unbelief, Agendas, Man’s Order, Manipulation, and etc… These teachings have attached itself to the church to rob its destiny. The church is walking in fear because of fear based teaching. The church is walking in doubt and unbelief because of teachings on this mess. Sickness is so prevalent because of the teachings out of Infirmity chapter 1 verse 6. It’s time for every pastor and leader to open their eyes to see that there is a spirit at work trying to squeeze the life out of the people of God. These teachings are nothing more than little snakes being passed out, wrapped up, and disguised with wrapping that has scriptures all over it.
The religious spirit has caused the church to become deaf and dumb. Jesus cast this spirit out plenty of times. In Mark 8:13-21, Jesus rebuked the disciples because of the lack of discernment and I believe also because their doubt. He says to them, “Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.” The disciples thought that Jesus was talking about them having no bread. Jesus said something very powerful. “Why do you reason because you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive nor understand? Is your heart still hardened? Having eyes, do you not see? Having ears, do you not hear?” Jesus was trying to get to understand that I’m not talking about the fact that we don’t have enough bread! Do you remember the miracle of the five loaves? What Jesus was talking about was the corruption of the Pharisees and Herod.
The same thing is happening to the church. Jesus is saying beware of the religious spirit that is on the rise and spreading but we the church, are talking about bread. The church is to busy having conferences and meetings, asking this same question the disciples, “Is it because we forgot to do this, bring that, say this, or say that?” NO! The church has eyes but can’t see and ears but can’t hear. The religious spirit has caused the church to harden their hearts to the point that the words of warning don’t even affect her anymore. Just like the disciples, the church is missing the revelation Jesus is dropping. This is so true! We go around having conferences to sit around one another to confer. Look at verse 16, “And they reasoned among themselves”. That’s all these conferences have resulted in, the church coming together to ask each other question. Not one person in this passage stopped to ask Jesus, “Master, what are you saying to us?” No, instead of asking Jesus what He meant, they tried to figure everything out on their own. Sounds like pride.
This is what’s happening in the pulpits across America. Instead of us stepping out in faith to see and hear something we’ve never seen or heard before, we allowed that python called religion to seduce and lie to us that we got the answers. The sad thing about that leaders, is that the people, the sheep of His pasture is paying for it. They are suffering from the teachings of demons they are receiving from you by way of the python (religious spirit).
I speaking to leaders so much because the bible says that judgment shall begin at the house of God (1Peter 4:17). We have even allowed the python to twist this scripture to bring fear upon the sheep. However, by the authority I have in Jesus name, let me tell you that this judgment is not going to start with the sheep! NO! This judgment will start with the leaders because God has given the leaders the simply responsibility to just follow Him. If we do that in everything, the people, the sheep of His pasture will follow. It’s just like when our parents told us to look after our baby sister or brother until they return. If something gets broken and you were not there to stop it, the first question is not address to the younger one. That question is coming to you because you were left in charge. This what is happening to the church right now. God is see a lot of mess going on and He is saying where are my leaders? Where are the ones I left in charge? Why are my leaders not listening to me? What is that meal (teaching) my leaders are serving? Who in Hell did they get that from? Wait a minute! I know you are thinking to yourself, God couldn’t be saying who in Hell right? That’s a curse word right? Wrong! God is asking this question, WHO IN HELL DID THEY GET THAT FROM? It is not that God doesn’t know where it came from, He wants you to be honest and expose that demon. Remember, hell is a place that was prepared for the devil and the angels he convinced to reject God (Isaiah 14: 12-21, Revelation 12:9, Jude 1:6, and 2 Peter 2:4) and also Paul said that these teachings were from demons. Religion is also a microphone with speakers that gives fear, doubt, unbelief, infirmity, worry, depression, hatred, anger, and unforgiveness a voice. It wants the church to pay attention to what it is saying. Why is religion attaching itself to leaders? Leaders have influence. If it can get to the leaders, then it can get to the sheep. If it gets to the sheep, the whole church is destroyed.
Religion has the same agenda as its master the devil. To kill, steal, and to destroy (John 10:10). So in my closing, the revelation I have received from the Lord I now give to you. Since we now understand from scripture that the devils’ address now, is, and forever shall be hell and that his little demons are his roommates, I release this command from heaven now! Get up and tell the devil, GO TO HELL!

As you begin to name these things that have been tormenting your church, family, and friends, the Lord says that deliverance shall come!
Psalm 126:1-3 NKJV 1 When the LORD brought back the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream. 2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, And our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “The LORD has done great things for them.” 3 The LORD has done great things for us, And we are glad.
At the end of 2007, the Lord made it very clear to me that His body was not just stepping into a new year with the ritual or traditional New Year’s resolution but a year of beginnings. You must understand that this year, “2008″, is the season that you come in contact with the reality of your dreams. The Lord said that on December 31, 2007, when your clock hit 12 midnight, you crossed over into your realities. This is what was going on in this text. The people of Judah were celebrating their release from Babylonian captivity. For years they were dreaming of freedom, dreaming of laughter, peace, joy, etc…. There was anticipation to seeing the realities of what they were dreaming. Does this sound like you? What were your dreams in 2007? Were you dreaming about your marriage being healed and restored? How about a better relationship with your children? That dream of starting your own company, being financially free, being healthy, walking in the gifts and calling of God for your life, etc…? I can go on and on but I think you get the picture.
The people of Judah were experiencing the reality of their dreams even to the point where it seemed like a dream. In others words they were saying that famous phrase of today, “I can’t believe it”! Well, I’m telling you to believe it! You are not dreaming. This is really happening. You and I have gone years of people saying that it can’t happen, it won’t happen, and awhhhhhhhhh you’re crazy. Well, excuse me while I speak on your behalf and mine to those haters out there who said it couldn’t be done! We are not crazy! Not in the past, present, or future. God loves dreamers. When you dream, you open yourself up to another form of communication with God. It is in this place where He begins to show you that your dreams were His dreams for you since the beginning of time. I encourage you to keep on dreaming because God is waiting to show you more.
If you don’t mind, I would like to share my testimony with you of how I am right now experiencing my realities. One of my dreams was to have my ordination as a Pastor and Prophet (which was already done by God) to be confirmed by those I had submitted myself under. You see, it doesn’t matter what you are called to do, God already ordained you before the foundation of world was established. Religion says that when a preacher lays his/her hands on you, then you are at that moment a pastor, prophet, teacher, evangelist, or apostle but that’s not true. An ordination service is only a confirming or agreement of what God has established. Religion also says that it should happen at a time I think it should but that is also incorrect. Just as who you were to be on earth was established, the time or season was as well. For anyone to say that you are not this or it’s not time yet, are dead wrong. Let me say this in love to those of you who have said and/or right now still speaking those words. Please stop. When you speak these things to someone out of an impure heart, you are only yielding your instruments (the parts of our bodies) to sin.
Romans 6:12-14 12 Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to its lustful desires. 13 Do not let any part of your body become a tool of wickedness, to be used for sinning. Instead, give yourselves completely to God since you have been given new life. And use your whole body as a tool to do what is right for the glory of God. 14 Sin is no longer your master, for you are no longer subject to the law, which enslaves you to sin. Instead, you are free by God’s grace.
When you allow the spirit of religion to control you by using your mouth to speak against what God has already established, you are using your mouth to declare the plans of this spirit into existence. I just felt I needed to share this part. Getting back to my dream, the call for my life was not confirmed by those who I submitted myself under. I share this not to discredit anyone but only to encourage you. When it was time for me to leave that place and come to Ohio, I had no idea of what was ahead of me. For you see, it was here in Columbus, Oh on December 31, 2007 that my pastors Apostle CJ and Lanita Gaul agreed with what God had done in heaven and ordained my wife and I. Let the realities of your dreams this year flow like a gushing river. When it flows like a gushing river, nothing and I mean nothing can stop it. Enjoy your realities and forgive those who spoke evil against it. Don’t point your finger in pride to say “I told you so”. That’s not the character of God. I hear in my spirit that the realities will speak for itself and it doesn’t matter if they say I’m sorry or not. You and I must walk in love because Psalm 118:23 says: “This is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous to see”. This is your season! Amen
