Message: Whats going on? Ephesians 6:12 New International Version (NIV) 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. This scripture is pointing to the source of your problems. A good book on this is Authority in 3 realms by Watchman Nee. Christians absolutely must understand this in order to win in battle. This also why a 3 minute a day prayer life will yield nothing. In The following scripture, the orator my seem to be talking about a man. He/God, is actually talking about Satan. He was the spiritual force in the heavenly realm over the City of Tyre in Lebanon. He affected the decisions of the leadership. He does the same thing today. This is what is happening in our nation and cities. In verse 13 God is actually referring to Satan, who was then called Lucifer, being in Eden, BEFORE the destruction of the first Earth. (Thats another subject) Ezekiel 28:11-13 New International Readers Version (NIRV) 11 A message came to me from the Lord. He said, 12 “Son of man, sing a song of sadness about the king of Tyre. Tell him, ‘The Lord and King says, “‘“You were the model of perfection. You were full of wisdom. You were perfect and beautiful. 13 You were in Eden. It was my garden. All kinds of jewels decorated you. Here is a list of them. ruby, topaz and emerald chrysolite, onyx and jasper sapphire, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made out of gold. On the day you were created, they were prepared. Ezekiel 28: 14 You were anointed as a guardian cherub,(a cherub was a angel of high authority. They utilize Chain of Command) for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; (No man has been there) you walked among the fiery stones. 15 You were blameless in your ways from the day you were create till wickedness was found in you. 16 Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones. 17 Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth;(Rev.12:9 Luke 10:18) I made a spectacle of you before kings. 18 By your many sins and dishonest trade you have desecrated your sanctuaries. So I made a fire come out from you, and it consumed you, and I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of all who were watching. 19 All the nations who knew you are appalled at you; you have come to a horrible end and will be no more.’” This is the bottom line. It is more imperative today than ever before that you Christian grow past being a religious person with fire insurance and get involved in the warfare. Your prayer life will have to be more than about you yourself. The old God bless everybody isnt going to work. You should be able to see that. When you look for a book on prayer, it must have a chapter on how sin blocks getting a answer. I said earlier this year that the violence would grow and it has. Forget the attitude that we are supposed to change the whole world. The future of mankind is in the Bible. Only when Jesus comes back will that happen. But in the mean time, we must resist the devil through prayer. Have a blessed weekend.
