(This podcast was previously recorded and published on July 16, 2020) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney 1 Peter 5:8-9 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. John 10:10 Jesus, the Word says: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly I had been speaking about antichrist coming through individuals in churches and I was making a recording. The thought came, "You're wrong. Antichrist doesn't come through humans." God reminded me of following scripture: I John 2:18-19 John said: Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. *** The Bible shows us antichrist coming through people in the church even in the days of the apostle John. The objective of antichrist is to cause us to depart from the Word of God and to set up doctrine contrary to the Word of God. The objective of the devil is to destroy the people of God, if we allow ourselves to be destroyed, following destructive thoughts of devils and our own flesh. Therefore the apostle Paul instructs: II Corinthians 10:3-5 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. (Making every thought obedient to Christ, THE WORD.) As long as we live on this earth, we must deal with every thought to make that which "we think" conform to the Word of God, casting all thoughts contrary to the scriptures from us, establishing the truth and what we believe by the scriptures by the Holy Spirit of God. Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 1 Peter 3:6-7 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that HE may exalt you in due time: 7 Casting all your care upon HIM; for HE careth for you. John 8:31-32 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on HIM, If ye continue in MY word, then are ye MY disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Ephesians 6:10-13 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of HIS might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, Who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 💥💥💥💥💥 * For writings on additional subjects, click here: Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog
