Some Christians who got their hearts occupied by Mammon are stealing from others even from the church money, they couldn’t control their lust for money so they play gambling and spend their resources on lotto and bets, The spirit of covetousness is instigated by Mammon which leads to poverty, spiritually and physically.
It’s covetous Christians that are used to prosperity preaching, they move from collecting oil for breakthrough to receiving anointing for business excellence, instead of going through the Word to know the plan and the way of God.
They prefer a church where their twenties can become forties in a moment thereby falling into the hands of a fraudster.
Most Christians have the God of money enthroned in their hearts but wouldn’t admit it.
The poverty of the souls manifests through the body, they reek of debt and lack, while they align their physical problems to the works of household wickedness.
It’s another god they permitted to remain in their lives, the gods they never want to chase out that open door for this wickedness to infiltrate and cart good things out of their lives.
Filthiness in the soul is what is manifesting without, which makes men question the God they serve, you can’t mock God, whatever you sow you shall reap.
Lust is what occupies a position in some people’s lives, lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, this is what Satan placed there in exchange for the presence of God who vacated in the fall.
You can’t remove one and leave others undone, if any one of them is found in the temple of your heart, you’re still under the dominion of darkness.
It’s the lust for money and materials that makes you borrow from others without thinking of paying it back.
If a lustful man becomes a pastor or a leader of a congregation, there is no way he will not steal from church members.
A man who was highly respected borrowed money from a young lady in the church, when the lady asked for her money, he labeled the woman as a witch that members should have nothing to do with her, this made the lady leave the church in shame.
Until these kinds of people visit the cross and have their flesh nailed, they won’t make heaven no matter the works they have done in the name of Christ.
They did the works for God in sin and became unworthy to enter his presence
God won’t share his temple nor will he share his glory, for his glory resides in his temple and with those who honor his name.
God of Mammon doesn’t give life for he doesn’t have it, whichever temple it occupied, it’s the sentence of death in full manifestation.
Lust of the flesh is the abomination of life, all kinds of immorality are its manifestation.
If you don’t control your flesh it will control you and destroy your destiny.
If the lust is yet to be dethroned from where it occupies it will manifest in bringing disgrace to your calling in the future.
If you say you have to conquer this lustful desire but the pride of life is still intact, you’re yet to be free, you’re still under satanic manipulation.
The heart must be rid of all lust for the holy Spirit to gain preeminence, it’s the area you allow Jesus to penetrate that he’ll have preeminence.
The ark of the covenant and Dagon can’t stay in the same temple.
Any area in your life that still reeks of problems and curses is the area you’re yet to surrender under the authority of the holy Spirit, Whatever area the Lord is in charge of is no more under the power of the wicked one, even if the whole world lies under his power and influence.
Have you ever asked yourself, Why does the devil have access to your finances or marriage? Maybe you’re yet to subject that area under the authority of Christ.
If you like to spend your money on pleasures that don’t have eternal value, Satan will visit your finances, or your marriage is not subjected to the leadership of the holy Spirit, the devil will attack if he finds something that belongs to him in it.
The Bible says, our obedience must be complete to avenge all disobedience.
If Satan comes to search your heart and find what belongs to him there, all authority you think you have over him is nullified, that’s why most of us can’t cast out devils without Satan’s reinforcement.
Satan is boasting that the majority of the church members are under his dominion because he has something that belongs to him in their heart, little foxes spoil the vine.
Man can play his double role very well for in him manifesting the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, that is why the old man must be nailed to the cross with the good and evil in it, because flesh and blood can’t experience the glory of God.
Satan is searching for the heart that harbours deception, because it’s the serpent poison he injected into man after the fall, and that’s what he will use to destroy any soul that is found in the end.
Prayer: Father Lord visit my heart and chase things that is competing with your glory out of it, in Jesus name amen
