A big, bad, VERY dangerous spiritual myth

When it comes to life in the spirit,
what's more important, short term or long term victory?
Now I know what you're almost certainly thinking.
But you're wrong. Dead wrong, in fact.
9 out of 10 people I ask always go
for the wrong option: long term victory.
It's an obvious choice, isn't it?
So let me explain why that's wrong.
Firstly, you have to understand a strange paradox –
and make no mistake about it.
Long term victory is made up of a string of small
short term victories, all stuck together.
Just this morning
I was over at my local gym.
I noticed a gentleman bent over one of the back machines.
It looked kind of an odd posture to me.
So I moved close.
Turned out to be one of the guys
I engage in conversation with from time to time.
You know...
Conversations about faith, family, business, etc.
He seemed to be in excruciating pain.
What happened? I asked.
He was doing his routine back presses when suddenly
something at the base of his spine went "snap".
Now I was about to call the attention of the staff
when all of a sudden I had a divine insight.
So I said:
"Can I ask you a rather strange question?"
"Yes go ahead."
"Now remember that dream you had just last night?"
His eyes opened wide in surprise.
He began to say something then stopped.
Funny I should ask that.
It just crossed his mind.
Early this morning around 4 A.M. he had an unusual dream.
Someone was lashing him with a big stick.
He couldn't remember the reason why.
When he woke up he thought it strange
that he didn't even try to fight back as usual.
He didn't cancel the dream.
And which part of the body was being subjected
to this brutal beating?
You guessed it.
I asked: do you think that this is a coincidence?
Slowly he shook his head.
I asked: do you think that this is a coincidence?
Slowly he shook his head.
That's all the information needed.
Well, we got out of there and prayed...
sending evil arrows back to sender.
You should have seen the huge smile on his face
15 minutes later, after our not-so-gentle prayer session.
Why do I bring this up?
It seems like a tiny victory, but "small" victories like
these eventually add up and give birth to a huge victory.
Listen to David rattle off his credentials of "small"
victories just before he took on the dreaded giant Goliath:
===
But David said to Saul, “Your servant was tending his father’s sheep.
When a lion or a bear came and took a lamb from the flock, I went out
after him and attacked him, and rescued it from his mouth; and when he rose
up against me, I seized him by his beard and struck him and killed him.
“Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; and this
uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has
defied the armies of the living God.”
1 Sam 17:34-36
===
Praise the LORD.
There was "something" at play in that little incident
at the gym this morning.
It is called: discernment of spirits.
How did I "know" to ask about something seemingly unrelated
to the acute physical pain this man was going through?
Discernment.
It can lead to small, everyday victories.
It can lead to HUGE, mind-blowing victories.
Let me be clear:
Not all problems that manifest in the physical
can be traced to attacks in the dream.
Many other problems may have NOTHING to do
with the dream realm at all.
with the dream realm at all.
You need discernment to know which is which.
When I got back to my study, the Holy Spirit reminded me to go through
some of the emails I've received this month.
I am SHOCKED to see just how many of these problems here
could be traced to vicious dream attacks.
For instance, many people still having sex in the dream have no idea
that what they think is a human being is nothing but a serpent!
Others are being fed with what appears to be "food" in the dream...
but they might in fact be eating human flesh and drinking human blood
without knowing it.
Result: their spirit man becomes VERY weak and unable
to withstand the arrows and bullets of the enemy.
I have a dire message for those who
refuse to take their dreams seriously.
Please listen closely.
As the year runs to a close...
The enemy is stepping up its attacks
in the dream ... to unprecedented levels.
This enemy has many wicked intentions and has prepared
a surprise for those who don't know how to fight back.
The LORD has also prepared a little surprise...
The remaining 2 weeks of the ongoing Platinum Program
will be devoted to fighting dream battles.
Yes, 2 full weeks of dealing with dream enemies such as:
Venomous snakes, vicious wild boars,
concealed quicksand, biting dogs...
concealed quicksand, biting dogs...
...And of course, the alligators, demons, spirits which are
hiding where you’d never suspect them.
(Registration is now closed).
However, we're embedding some of these prayers
in the ongoing 7 Lessons of the Prayer Academy and...
You'll soon come face to face with the kind of prayers
we prayed at the gym this morning (if you are currently
in the Academy).
, It is time to deal with any and
every power attacking you in the dream.
every power attacking you in the dream.
And send a powerful signal to all other would-be
adversaries that your life is NOT their playground.
adversaries that your life is NOT their playground.
