Strategic Focus for Sunday
WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
THE BATTLE TO SAVE AMERICA! – Part 217
The Returning of President Trump to the White House! – Part 99
“Do not be deceived; evil companionships corrupt good habits.”
1 Corinthians 15:33
Today, we review and pray into Chapter 4 of Jonathan Cahn’s book, THE RETURN OF THE GODS. As we come to understand the possession, of both individuals and nations, let us pray that God will have mercy on the United States, deliver us from evil, and set us free to know, love and serve Him once again! Pray.
Chapter 4 A Civilization Possessed
IF THE GODS of the ancient world were joined to the spirits, then what happened to those peoples and nations under their dominion? The word “daimonizomai” is used in the New Testament to speak of the effect of a spiritual principality on an individual. It can be translated as “demonized” or “possessed.” So if behind the gods of the ancient world were spirits, we would expect the signs of “daimonizomai”, or demonization, to manifest in those cultures that worshiped and served the gods—the signs of possession. And that is exactly what we find. Pray.
Seized of the Gods The phenomenon of possession can be found in most pagan cultures of the world. Where there are gods, there is more likely to be possession. One can find the phenomenon of possession in virtually every region and people group of the world—from the Mesopotamians to the Greeks to the Romans to the Zambians to the Taiwanese to the Eskimos to the peoples of Africa, Asia, South and North America, and Europe. It is another example of a strange phenomenon manifesting in virtually every land and people group on earth. Beyond that, the signs and manifestations of possession as recorded in virtually every culture and land are remarkably consistent. If behind the gods were principalities, then we would expect that those who especially worshiped and communed with them would be especially vulnerable to possession. And that too is exactly what we find. Pray.
In fact, in the pagan world the phenomenon of possession was often linked to the gods. The ancient Sumerians experienced the possession of the goddess Inanna. The ancient Greeks experienced the possession of the god Dionysus. The closer one was to the deity, the more in danger one was to possession. The priests and priestesses of the gods and goddesses were especially vulnerable. What are the signs of possession? The Bible gives several accounts that reveal them. The symptoms of possession include convulsions, shakings, and violent frenzies. These very same signs appear in pagan accounts of the individuals being possessed by the gods. In fact, shakings, convulsions, and violent frenzies were often the most dramatic and striking features of pagan worship. Pray.
The Oracle of Delphi The most famous seer of the pagan world was the high priestess of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, the Oracle of Delphi. She was known as the Pythia, after the mythic giant python, that was said to have guarded the sacred site at Delphi. The python gave revelation and prophecy from the gods. According to Greek mythology, the god Apollo slew the python and established his own temple and his own prophetic oracle on the site. Thus the god took the name of the serpent and became the Pythian Apollo and, as such, would take possession of the oracle and speak through her. For the Greco-Roman world, the Oracle of Delphi was the epitome of divine revelation. Kings and emperors came to Delphi to inquire of her and to receive revelation from the gods. Pray.
Signs of the Serpent In the pagan world the serpent was often seen as a source of divine wisdom. But in the Bible the serpent is a symbol of darkness, of the satanic or demonic realm. Before uttering her prophecies, the Pythia would fall into a frenzied delirium, violently shaking, moaning, shrieking, foaming at the mouth, and speaking unintelligible words. All these are classic signs of spirit possession. And indeed even the oracle claimed to be possessed by a spirit, the spirit of the god. And so the highest realm of revelation in the ancient pagan world was occupied by a woman possessed by a spirit. Again we see the mystery of the shedim and the daimonia. The gods and the spirits moved as one. Pray.
Mass Phenomenon This opens up an even larger truth. If the oracles, the high priests, and the priestesses were possessed of the spirits, and they were each the highest vessels of their nation’s spirituality—then what about their nation? The dominion of the gods and spirits was never confined to the temples and shrines. It permeated entire cultures and civilizations. The deity was not worshiped only in their temples and shrines but in their homes, workplaces, marketplaces, fields, mountains, and valleys. The majority of their worshippers were not priests or officiants but farmers, shepherds, potters, traders, everyday men, women, and children. So if the culture or kingdom worshiped the gods and the gods were spirits, then the culture and kingdom were joined to the spirits, subject to them, and under their dominion. The signs of possession were not confined to the priesthood or temple. The shakings, the convulsions, and the violent frenzies could manifest anywhere, at any time, and with anyone. Pray.
A Civilization Possessed Beyond the signs of individual possession were other signs and symptoms of a much larger phenomenon. In pagan culture it was not uncommon for people to offer up other people as sacrifices to the gods. In some pagan cultures, people even murdered their own children in sacrifice to the gods. They did so as acts of worship. Such things were not the spontaneous acts of a possessed individual but the ways, traditions, rituals, and collective acts of a possessed culture. Pray.
The larger truth is that possession may involve more than an individual. It may involve an entire culture, nation, kingdom, or civilization. It is this phenomenon, that of collective, mass, or civilizational possession, that is critical to understand if one is to understand the radical metamorphosis that took place in ancient times, that altered world history, and the equally radical transformation taking place at this very moment. Pray.
In the first century, in an unlikely place, a peripheral land of the Roman Empire known as Judea, an unlikely revolution was begun. It would change the history of the gods and of the world itself. We now journey to that unlikely place and that unlikely phenomenon that brought about the twilight of the gods. Pray.
We pray:
- That “We, the People” will “break every chain” and be released to fulfill our destiny in Christ Jesus! Pray.
- For frustration, confusion and division among the Democrats during these last days of holding the majority in the House, so that they can accomplish nothing else destructive to our people and nation! Pray.
- For President Trump, as he presses onward (KADIMA!) during this tumultuous time! Guard, guide and govern his every word and action; protect him from all enemies, without and within; help him discern rightly about counsel given by those who advise him. Pray.
- In thanksgiving for all the conservative candidates who will “stand in the gap” with us and our President, engaging in this BATTLE TO SAVE AMERICA, and rejecting the “usurper” and those pulling his strings in this faux administration, removing them from office! Pray.
- Protect and strengthen our 24/7 family and bring in new intercessors who are called to this assignment with us, to pray for our President and our beloved nation! Pray.
