Warfare prayer of the soldiers of the Army of Jesus to bind and destroy the works of the devil

Let us bind and destroy the works of the devil in the name of Jesus Christ who has conquered sin, satan, curse and death on the cross

Mark 7:22  The spirit of pride

Message for reflection – Sr.Angelica

We have been living in Panaiyur for nearly  2 years now. Since most of the time we are travelling, I was like a stranger without establishing any contact with the people over here. Under the “Trans-India” project, we sisters  started some projects like taking  tuition and teaching tailoring. Within one day, I noticed such a big change. For one hour tuition, students of all classes, from Play school , L.K.G.to 12th Std were there. We three sisters and other teachers were there. Since teaching was our basic profession, we were able to manage the students. After one hour tuition, while we were coming back, mothers, youngsters, teenagers in the streets, came to us venerably with various requests.

“Will you admit my child also for tuition?”

“Can I come for tailoring  I didn’t register my name yesterday. I was out of station”.

“Do you conduct computer class also? I would like to get admitted”  

For almost an year I was breaking my head thinking, “How can we be of some help to the people of this area where we live?

Surprisingly I came to know the truth that we have been wasting our talents of “teaching” all these years. Teaching English or other subjects  for one  hour is a hobby for us.

I regretted, “Why  didn’t we make use of this talent  which the Lord has given to us when there was so much of need for it.

Jn 6:12  When they were completely satisfied, Jesus told his disciples, "Collect the pieces that are left over so that nothing is wasted."

Jesus does not allow resource wastage among His children.  

Believers, are we using our talents for our brethren, who are in need of it? I thank Jesus for revealing the project of “Trans-India” which brought a turning point in our life!

Transformation India

What is Troop Church ?

There is an earnest search among the believers across the world for a real Church where a person can commune with God and relate to his fellow brethren. After trials and experiments the Indian Church is forming “Troop Church”.

The Army of Jesus was experimenting with the “Troop Church” for the past 17 years. Started in the year 1998. The experiment with Troop Church has been successful.

  1. It has independent first line second and third line Troop Churches
  2. It has raised many leaders, prophets, counselors and other ministers and gospel workers.
  3. It has no visible leader or hierarchical structure
  4. It has no office, no full timer, no paid worker etc.
  5. No organizational (hierarchical) set up.
  6. No money collection or transaction.
  7. No election, board, Committee etc.
  8. Every Troop Church trains up believers in their gifts like worshipping, preaching, prophecy etc.
  9. Since the mother troop disperses and starts new troops after 2 months, there is no stagnancy.
  10. No pollution or corruption with money or power.

    11.The two wings of Troop Church are Decentralisation and Multiplication .

Ezekiel's Bones Live - Israel Prepares To Celebrate Independence Day

More than four-fifths (82.0%) of Jews and 57.5% of Arabs said they identify with the State of Israel and its problems to a large or moderate extent, while 13.4% of Jews and 16.6% of Arabs said they identified with Israel only slightly, and 2.5% of Jews and 21.9% of Arabs said they did not identify with Israel at all.
 
Both Israeli Jews and Arabs tended to said they were optimistic both about the future of Israel. Nearly three-quarters (73.4%) of Jews said they were optimistic about the future of the State of Israel, compared to 60.8% of Arabs, while 22.2% of Jews and 32.1% of Arabs said they were not. In certain specific areas, Israeli Arabs were more likely to regard Israels efforts as successful.

While just 18.6% of Jews said Israel was succeeding in reducing social gaps, 49.3% of Israeli Arabs said Israel was succeeding. Nearly three-quarters (74.5%) of Arab said Israel was doing a good job maintaining economic stability, compared to 59.8% of Jews who expressed the same opinion. Close to half (45.9%) of Arabs said Israel was attentive to what citizens want, while just 22.1% of Jews agreed.

Study: Evangelicals, Charismatics are Most Prepared for Persecution

A new study explores the connection between various Christian denominations and persecution, including how prepared certain groups are for it. Evangelicals and Pentecostals tend to experience persecution the most and to be most prepared for it. This is often due to the fact that these denominations focus on evangelism rather than assimilating with antagonistic cultures. “In response to persecution, evangelical and Pentecostal Christians are more likely to engage in strategies of survival or, on rare occasions, confrontation,” the report says.

Christian Pastor Detained in China for Singing ‘Jesus Loves You’

A Taiwanese pastor was detained in China for the crime of singing “Jesus Loves You.” Christians in China have continued to face increased persecution for various displays of Christian faith. Xu was never given an explanation why singing “Jesus Loves You” was deemed illegal. Xu’s situation has been becoming increasingly common for Christians in China. Many have been arrested or worse. Back in February, five Christians were sentenced to three to seven years in prison on the charge that they purchased and sold “forbidden Christian devotional books.” Several Christian persecution ministries have warned that Christians in China are facing increased threats from the government. China’s President Xi Jinping has reportedly been cracking down on Christians and Christian churches for the past few years. Many prominent human rights lawyers and pastors have been imprisoned and some have even been killed. 

Christian persecution seen in more locations across the globe, new report shows

In the past year, the persecution of Christians has not only increased, but it has also spread to more corners of the globe – with incidents occurring on every continent, according to a new report. The advocacy group Open Doors USA recently released the latest edition of its annual World Watch List, which ranks countries based on the treatment of their Christian populations. The group said the increase in incidents considered persecution was alarming and only getting worse.

 

CHRISTIANS THE MOST PERSECUTED GROUP IN WORLD FOR SECOND YEAR: STUDY

The report comes on the heels of another study by the Center for Studies on New Religions that showed nearly 90,000 Christians were killed for their faith in 2016 and that as many as 600 million were prevented from practicing their faith through intimidation, forced conversions, bodily harm or even death. Curry said the group has seen an uptick in persecution in various countries throughout Asia, driven by governments and Islamic extremism. Christians in that part of the world have been targeted by nationalist religious movements -- Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist -- in such countries as Pakistan, India and Myanmar. Many of these groups increasingly view Christianity as a foreign, "colonial" import, and believe its practitioners are doing the bidding of the West, experts say.

India saw some of the highest increase in incidents as Hindu nationalists battered Christian churches ever since the election of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in May 2014. Since he has been in office, Modi has instilled Hindu nationalism, and experts say that has had devastating consequences for Christians in India. There was an average of 40 incidents per month of Christian persecution last year in the subcontinent, including pastors beaten, churches burned and Christians harassed. Eight Christians were killed for their faith.  Of the 64 million Christians in India, approximately 39 million experience direct persecution, according to the Open Doors study. While Christians continue to be targeted by ISIS radicals in Syria and Iraq, the religion is also under threat in other sections of the Middle East – with incidents of Christian persecution on the rise in Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf nations.

Surprisingly, North, Central and South America are also seeing increases of Christian persecution – even though Christianity is by far the most practiced religion in the region. In all, 23 Christian leaders in Mexico and another four in Colombia were killed specifically for their faith. While Mexico is considered more than 80 percent Catholic, a number of priests have come under attack and killed in the country the past few years.

Body, Soul and Spirit  Part 1

Deliverance Ministry

How we can help others regain the balance

“And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.” Mat 18:34, 35

Here one word is noteworthy. “Till”  till  when?

It shows the duration of this torment ( sickness, unemployment, any prison of physical or mental torture)

It is a period of time tillhe should pay all that was due unto him”. The already forgiven debt is brought back to account now. What was written off  his account is now added to it.

Let us go back to the same parable in Matthew

Mat 18:23  "That is why the kingdom from heaven may be compared to a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.

Mat 18:24  When he had begun to settle the accounts, a person who owed him 10,000 talents was brought to him.

Mat 18:25  Because he couldn't pay, his master ordered him, his wife, his children, and everything that he owned to be sold so that payment could be made.

Mat 18:26  Then the servant fell down and bowed low before him, saying, 'Be patient with me, and I will repay you everything!'

Mat 18:27  The master of that servant had compassion and released him, canceling his debt.

Mat 18:28  "But when that servant went away, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him, seized him by the throat, and said, 'Pay what you owe!'

Mat 18:29  Then his fellow servant fell down and began begging him, 'Be patient with me and I will repay you!'

Mat 18:30  But he refused and went and had him thrown into prison until he could repay the debt.

Mat 18:31  "When his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were very disturbed and went and reported to their master everything that had occurred.

Mat 18:32  Then his master sent for him and told him, 'You evil servant! I canceled that entire debt for you because you begged me.

Mat 18:33  Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you?'

Mat 18:34  In anger his master handed him over to the torturers until he could repay the entire debt.

Mat 18:35  This is how my heavenly Father will treat each one of you unless you forgive your brother from your hearts."

 

Suppose the man in  v 24 is  Edmund and the one in v 29 is  Richard

Let us translate the owed amount  in the case of Edmund as   Rs. 5,00,000 and of Richard as Rs. 5,000.

Edmund was forgiven fully by  his Master. Since he refused to forgive the debt Rs. 5,000 to Richard, the Master got angry and passed a judgment on him. Earlier when he was  brought for trial  a sentence was passed. Some disaster  which was about to occur to him, his wife, his children and everything he owned.

When he pleaded mercy his Master showed favor to him. He received two favours.

  1. The disaster which was to come upon him, his wife, children and everything he had, was averted.
  2. His debt was written off. He was relieved of the debt forever.

But  his  refusal to  forgive his fellow servant Richard,  turns to be a greater disaster for him. How?

  1. He becomes a victim and target of the terrible anger of his Master.
  2. He is thrown into prison
  3. All his cancelled debt comes back to life. He becomes a debtor of Rs. 5,00,000
  4. He is handed over to torturers.

The duration is “Till” he pays all his debt.

Now let us reflect on  his condition. He is thrown into prison.  How will he earn money to pay back his debt?

He is already in prison. (Torturer has the liberty to throw him into any prison. Prison of sickness, failure, literal prison, unemployment, chased by enemies, natural calamities etc.)

"Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, EXPOSE them” Ephesians 5:1

The Old Testament

Catholicism Symbols  (Catholicism – The Mysteries With A Mask)

MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

The Great Mother, The Virgin Mother, The Celestial Mother, Mother of God, The Eternal Virgin. These are names given to Mary that are also given to Semiramis / Ashtoreth.

“No wonder I am so angry! Watch how the children gather wood and the fathers build sacrificial fires. See how the women knead dough and make cakes to offer to the Queen of Heaven. And they pour out liquid offerings to their other idol gods!” - Jeremiah 7:18

God hates this reverence for the so-called Queen of Heaven and yet the Catholic church now states that Mary was perfect at birth and without sin. Catholics are taught to pray to Mary as she has in her hands the work of our salvation. In other words, she is idolised. She has been deified. The catholic Mary, is in fact none other than Ashtoreth with a Christian façade. The Catholics didn’t get rid of Ashtoreth; they simply gave her a new name. They even crown statues of Mary like this: 

You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.” – Exodus 20:4

Catholic doctrine states: “The One Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church as led by the Bishop of Rome, successor to Peter, the first Pope, has always venerated the blessed Virgin Mary including her sinlessness; for the Church follows Scripture – especially the New Testament which She, Herself, compiled – as perfectly as She follows Her Tradition.” The most obvious blasphemy about this passage is that they claim she is sinless and therefore nothing less than a goddess. But also notice the more subtle capital letters given to the words “She” and “Herself” which also denote Mary as a goddess. Scripture has even been deliberately corrupted in Catholic texts to identify Mary as the person who was said to crush the serpent’s head in Genesis 3: 15

“And I will establish a feud between thee and the woman, between thy offspring and hers; she is to crush thy head, while thou dost lie in ambush at her heels.” 

Mary has become a false goddess in the Catholic church and an anti-Christ. Pope Pius IX declared that Mary was immaculately conceived, suggesting that Jesus was only divine because Mary was divine first, as the mother of God.

 
“You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me” – Exodus 20:5
