Satan has such a grip on the heart of this country right now that the Saints must press in with prayer to the Lord for the lost and the deceived.
What a sad moment in time when television shows are being used to glorify that which is called an abomination by God, the Creator of this world. When I see articles of different news events on the side of my Facebook page glorifying shows that follow teenagers who are confused about who they were created to be, I mourn for every eye that will turn that show on. When television shows are airing kids of the same gender, at the age of 12, doing that which is against God’s plan for their lives, I fall to my knees and say, “Lord, don’t forsake this land! Extend your hand of mercy; penetrate our hearts, Lord. Do what you must so that the people in this land will turn away from their sin and turn to you!”
What a deceptive time when, unfortunately, people are twisting words from the Bible to condone that which is against the very nature of God’s plan for men and women. Are believers so intimidated by Satan’s system that we can’t rise up in these last days and speak the Truth of the Word of God in order to set the captives free?
Do we have too many friends who are in bondage to that sin that we can’t afford to tell
These captives (prisoners) to Satan do not even realize that they are in bondage to a death grip of sin. The vice is slowly tightening around their throats as they continue to hold up signs and commit acts that are clearly spoken against in God’s Word.
May we not forget that Satan attempted to quote the Bible for his own gain to Jesus Himself! But the Lord used the Word against Satan. We are not to remain silent just because those deceived misuse the Bible for filthy purposes.
Some would argue that “their bible” tells them to love - as in we should not call sin what it is … sin.
What a strange distortion of love shouted from the housetops these days.
We are taught about love in Romans 13:8-10
8...for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. 9For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
Do we not clearly see how love does not continue in sin? Read the verses again. We cannot afford to fall for the lie being espoused by so many. Love will warn and exhort those who are practicing sin. Love will not be silent while sin is being committed. And love will not practice/commit/go against any commandment set forth by God.
1) From the origin of the world, God’s statute was and still is clear:
Genesis 2:22-24And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
2) Jesus echoed these same words when He walked the earth:
Matthew 19:5 & Matthew 19:65 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
3) The Holy Spirit Still Teaches The Covenant Between a Man and a Woman:
Ephesians 5:23, 5:24, 5:25, 5:28
Ephesians 5:31For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they who shall be one flesh.
4) In The Old Testament and the New Testament, God’s Word does not change.
Leviticus 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
Jesus also says in Matthew 5:17: Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
What is the link between the Old Testament Law and the New Testament Covenant?
Jesus Christ
The Old Testament law was certainly important and decreed by God, but man could never truly be delivered from the laws he broke. In other words, man could not deliver himself from his own sin. The best he could do was offer yearly sacrifices of animals. Yet, when he walked away from that sacrificial ceremony, he would inevitably fail in some area of the law and commandments.
However, the Lord provided a better way for all who follow Christ. Jesus was the perfect sacrifice.
He was sinless. 1 Peter 2:21 & 1 Peter 2:22
He became the sacrificial Lamb, once and for all.
When a person understands his sinfulness, repents of the sin in his life, and instead turns to Christ, through obedience, the Holy Spirit will guide the follower of Christ into all truth. It is not that we, by professing our belief in Jesus, can continue in sin and our sins still be covered or hidden under the blood. That form of grace does not exist in the Bible, no matter how popular that false doctrine is.
True Grace, According to the Bible Does the Following:
Titus 2:11, 2:12, 2:13, 2:14, 2:1511 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
Grace does not allow sin; grace teaches a person who is following Christ HOW TO OVERCOME sin!
Glory! Freedom! For those of you who are suffocating from sin’s grip around your neck, there is HOPE! In Christ Jesus, you are no longer in bondage to the sin that has controlled you. Cry out to the Lord. There are no special rehearsed words that you need to say. Just cry out to the Lord! He will come running to set you free! He will find you and rescue you from any sin.
1 Peter 5:8, 5:9, 5:10, 5:11, 5:12
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.
Notice in the verses above that the suffering is in direct relation to a believer who is resisting (not giving into) Satan. We resist Satan and his temptations by praying to the Lord, seeking the Lord, reading the Bible, fasting. After we have endured IN Christ and not given in to the sin, the Lord is faithful to perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle us. I could not type these words if I had not personally experienced how these verses and this explanation are true. Any battle or temptation in my life that has been won, wholly and completely, has been won using the formula in the 1 Peter verses above.
Satan will flee from a person who resists him. Satan may flee quickly or may linger and attack for an extended period of time, but I promise he will depart if you do are obedient to what the Spirit says in verses 8-9.
For those of you who are struggling with the sin outlined in this blog or with any sin (for
The days are rapidly growing darker. That which is an abomination to God is now being glorified on television for anyone to see. We removed cable from our home a year ago due to the increasing ungodliness showcased on cable television. We couldn’t effectively monitor what our children’s eyes would be exposed to: not just shows, but commercials. Even channels that were supposedly for young kids were starting to allow hosts for these children’s shows who were ungodly in an overt sense.
Can we not see that the men who were encompassing Lot’s home in Genesis 19 are now surrounding the church, seeking to infiltrate that which is Holy? Lot offered his virgin daughters in place of the men (angels) who were being housed in his home. Genesis 19:8
Yet, the men of the city, did not want Lot’s virgin daughters. Lot withstood the sin pressing upon his door, and when he did, the Angels in his home provided for Lot a way of escape from the sinfulness that surrounded him. The Power of God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.
Lot withstood the evil, and the Lord led him safely out of that town before its destruction.
The Lord is calling us to press against the door and protect that which is Holy: The CHURCH! Don’t allow an abomination inside. If we are faithful to resist the devil, the LORD, by the POWER of His Grace, will perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle us. We will never taste the wrath that is coming.
Protect that which is sacred in the eyes of the Lord & point the lost to the Only One who can set them free.

This is a Spirit led sermon that I pray everyone listens to. I typed up this blog this morning with a sense of urgency from the same Holy Spirit. It wasn't until after I typed the blog that I saw this sermon shared on Facebook. The Spirit of God is pleading with His people. Now is the time to seek His Face. This country has crossed over to godlessness, and the Lord will only hear those who humble themselves before Him. Stand in the Gap for this nation and for the lost in it. I fully support the Holy Spirit driving this man's message below. Watch when you have time to really hear what the Spirit is saying.
