Stop The Witchcraft!

As I write this post, I realize some will cheer what I say, while others will get offended and say I am writing in a judgmental attitude. Please here my heart. I am not being judgmental, nor deliberately trying to be critical. God knows my heart; I really want His blessings and His prosperity to be in and on my life and ministry! But some of this garbage has to stop!

I received a letter one of our partners received recently from a well known minister. This letter told of how this minister was anointed to help people access the power within them to gain all the success they would ever need in their lives.

But before they could begin the teaching journey this partner needed to write and request a bracelet that had been anointed and saturated with prayer and intercession for people who would wear them. And I quote; "I believe as you wear this bracelet, this awesome power will flow through to you…"

Then the following; "I need you to fill out the prayer card and rush it back to me. When I receive your prayer card and your prayer request I will rush you the second step in this process. I will also send you the bracelet I would like you to wear for 40 days. The most important part of this process after prayer is education. Let me show you how to access the power within yourself! I am asking you to sow a seed of $35.00 today and…I will rush you a very special gift." (The dots are in the letter just as I wrote them)

How did I know that money was going to come up!

Again, I'm not trying to attack this minister. This person I believe is called by God; anointed and a chosen vessel; they started the ministry right: but if they don't turn it around, their ministry will become another casualty! That's not being judgmental, that's just the facts! It's not how you start, its how you finish!

This is nothing more than witchcraft at its finest! No wonder the world mocks us and laughs hysterically at our failures! Someone please help me to understand how you can go from trusting God for everything, then after you get a little success, you have to resort to manipulation and control to keep the cash coming in!

Didn't Jesus say freely you have received now freely give? Or was I hallucinating when I read that part of the scripture?

You cannot buy blessings from God; neither is there any such "good luck charm" you can wear around your wrist, neck, waist, or pinned to your jacket that will release "supernatural power and success!"

Again, this is nothing more than witchcraft!

And before you write me and tell me I should approach this minister in private and express these concerns to them; I would, if I could get through their security guards and locked doors to see them! I wrote another famous minister one time with a personal issue and you know what I received? The same form letter everybody receives when they write someone on TV! And was put on their mailing list without my consent!

Again, I'm not jealous of this person's success, nor am I trying to bring a curse on my ministry! And I do not think I am the last great hope for all the world! I'm just telling the world, God is exposing and pulling down this witchcraft and manipulation, because He is tired of His people being fleeced! I can hear John say now "…you generation of vipers…"

We don't need discernment in the American church, we desperately need the gift of discerning of spirits to show up and show up in a big way! This is the spirit of Baalim pure and simple.

If you want to support someone, how about supporting your local pastor and your local church? If you can't find a local church to support, find some "small time ministry" that is simply attempting to do a work to build the Kingdom of God…and not build them a kingdom on this earth that is surely about to fall!

I've come to realize something the last couple of weeks: in order to be a success in the American church, you need 90% selfish ambition and ego…and 10% (or less) anointing!

STOP THE CHRISTIAN WITCHCRAFT!!!!!!!!!!
