Matthew 12:29 ( Or else how can one enter into a strongman’s house and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strongman? And then he will spoil his house. )

Isaiah 49:24 ( Shall the prey be taken from the mighty or the lawful captives be delivered?)

The word strongman was used here to depict the activities of the devil concerning Satan’s kingdom.

He has built strongholds all over the territory he conquered after the fall; he places the souls of men there as his trophies.

Whichever Christian organisations are conquered by Satan, he builds his strongholds for people so that they cannot escape.

These strongmen are the forces of darkness who pay obeisance to the devil. Still, pretending to be Christians, they are wolves in sheep’s clothing, monitoring the migration of souls from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light.

They are in the church preventing souls from knowing the truth that will set them free, they have the key of knowledge but won’t allow men to have it, they won’t enter and they also prevent others from entering.

They are in the church regulating spiritual progress of the saints, as they are in the period of the Pharisees they are still here with us, it’s only by discernment of the spirit you can know them, but their sinful activities will find them out.

An evangelists that want to come to a city need church community’s approval over there, but the upper-ups are demanding royalty from evangelists to liberate souls out of darkness.

These are the strongman place themselves among the people of God guiding souls away from salvation and the knowledge of the Almighty.

Strongholds of darkness are where Jezebel and Balaam are in charge, they hinder the progress of the church not to attained the level of Christ’s stature to meet divine requirements.

Are they the ones who paid for the salvation of humanity, or are they the ones who died for men to receive life? That they desire to sell the souls of men for money.

You can’t operate fully on evangelistic ministry without bowing at their feet, else they will frustrate your efforts.

Souls that are bought with the precious blood of Jesus christ is now become a medium of transactions among the people of God.

As Satan placed his agents all over the world, so also he placed them in the church to regulate their progress, they’re in the pastors and bishops’ offices within Christian organisations, no wonder Christ says the first shall be the last and the last shall be the first.

Don’t be happy now if you are yet to reach the end of your race and your crown is yet to be given for so many Christians will lose their crown on the altar of mammon, it’s only those who make it to the end that shall be saved.

If you desire total victory, the strongman needs to be bound before the strongholds are spoiled and free the captives of the mighty.

Jesus Christ is passing behind church leaders to bring souls to himself by revealing himself through dreams, as many will come to the realisation of the kingdom through the spirit of God.

Jesus Christ came to bind the strongman in the spiritual realm before physical realisation could take place, he owned the souls of men, and he paid heavily to secure them from the hand of the devil.

There must be a cleansing operation within the church before we carry the battle to the outside world, if not the corruptions of the church will infest the newly born-again Christians and will make them worse than the people they met there.

Let us not put on ourselves the bondage that Christ came to relieve us from and make the bondage stronger by inviting more demons to take over and the latter day will be worse than the beginning.

Strongmen are incharge of human souls, Satan wouldn’t want his captives to go free, not with mighty hands.

That is why you’ll see someone who converted from Islam going to a false Christians church, when you ask, he will say we are serving the same God.

He is still under the same god with Islam who is Baal, not the God of the Bible, he will need someone stronger than the strongest to get him out of satanic bondage, because Satan won’t allow his captive to go free.

Then you’ll see one that is coming from a white garment church establishing a church, only to change its name but are doing the same things they do at their former church, in lighting of candles, burning of incense and using perfume, but in different dimensions, they still operate under the same spirit but with different attitudes.

Let us not deceive ourselves, the matter of new birth is transformation and renewal, if your life is yet to transform from who you are to whom you are supposed to be, you are yet to be born-again and become a new creature, so therefore be expecting the strong man of your environment to be at your trail and bring you back under satanic captivity.

Strongmen are so powerful to the extent of monitoring their captives wherever they find themselves, it’s only the name of Jesus and the anointing of holy spirit with his blood that breaks off the yoke of the mighty finally to set men at liberty and give them the grace to follow all the ordinances of God.

The strong man, baal that is ruling over Islam is the one ruling over peudochristians organisation, wherever they don’t acknowledge the lordship of Jesus Christ, he is the one in charge of catholics and the one behind every false religion of this world.

That is why ignorant Christians are navigating between religions and churches, but they will never become spiritual to break the yoke of false religion.

Strongman of Satan is behind all religions of this world, he is sitting upon the mountain of the north, far above the stars of God, controlling millions of lives and directing them to the worship of Baal.

He established it for a purpose to destabilise and confuse believers on the way to God’s presence, while many are busy playing religions, the devil is busy diverting souls to hell through their ignorance.

The Bible says, let us not be ignorant of Satan’s devices, for the devil is roaring like a lion, seeking whom to devour.

He says, Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captives be delivered?

But thus saith the LORD, even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered, I will contend with him that contend with thee and I will save thy children.

Prayer: Lord by your mighty hand, deliver your children from the captivity of the mighty in Jesus name amen.
