MAY 6 2007 - Just like birth pains, the
signs of the time increase in number and
intensity. This is a principal, that I think
I discovered also goes for our own spiritual
growth.
Sometimes, it seems like we're not
growing at all, things just go the way they
go. But then, all of a sudden, things start
to approach warp speed as one thing after
the next occurs.
I've had several of these periods. They
weren't all "nice", but definitely
fruitful.
In the first 8 or so years of my life as
a born again person, I was delivered from
all kinds of demons that had possessed me
from an early age. Then I had a time,
wherein I was shown all kinds of sins that
(had) occurred in my life and this
"conviction of sin" as it's called
was so intense, that I can't find words to
describe it.
I had another period in which the Holy
Spirit showed me who I really am. And so, to
a certain degree, now I know who I am. Not
knowing as in "intellectually
knowing", but true knowledge about who
I am in Kristos Yesus. I learned to discern
between body, soul and spirit which was a
tremendous revelation to me as I could now
-to a certain degree, obviously- overstand
why I have to deal with sin and still should
consider myself to be without sin.
And just recently, I came into another
phase in my life with Yesus Kristos that I
will truly describe as "new",
again.
It has to do with spiritual warfare, a
thing I am involved in since day one of my
life in Yesus Kristos, and arguably even
before that. A thing, which I also have not
mentioned publicly as I don't really like
sensational stories about spirits and demons
and so on. That is to say, I always consider
these stories to be potentially treated that
way.
However, as someone once said:
"the-times-they-are-changing".
Where before I was very hesitant to talk
about it, I now know myself to be encouraged
to share to a deeper level some things that
happen in my life, on this field.
And this is a new thing for me. But not
an illogical one.
The reason for this is, that we are
living in times wherein more and more people
are experiencing "the
supernatural", and I'm not talking
about feelings here. I'm talking about
genuine experiences that have everything to
do with what the bible calls "signs and
wonders".
People witnessing daily guidance in their
life, seeing things that shouldn't be there,
experiencing direct confrontations with evil
spirits, these kinds of things are becoming
more and more present as we move towards the
final age of this world order of Satan.
Talking about it becomes more and more
normal, and it should be. For there's
nothing abnormal to the supernatural.
Now, what does this have to do with being
in "a spiritual warp speed"?
Well, after a couple of years wherein it
was relatively quiet on the "spiritual
warfare" field, since a couple of
months I know myself to be back in a battle.
Praying for certain people, being attacked
by demonic entities, and so on and so forth.
I see the victory of Yesus Kristos time
after time again. It's not a question for
me, Who is the Most High, as every demon
trembles for the Name of Yesus Kristos.
And I now know myself to be at liberty to
share some things as they happen. Don't
expect me to write sensational stories,
though, even though the contents of certain
things I experience could be labeled as
such. I don't like "technical
details" either, but I do like to share
with people just how I see the victory of
Yesus Kristos time after time after time.
I myself am blessed, when I know that
certain things happen. Certain things, as
in: witnessing the victory of Yesus Kristos.
I know many people, personally too, who
experience the supernatural in a totally
different way.
And so, I am grateful to know that I am
now at liberty to speak about these things.
I consider it to be another sign of the fact
that the Holy Spirit does make me grow in my
spiritual life, even though I know it has
more to do with the times we are living in,
than with me personally.
One Love,
Messian Dread
