Witchcraft & Familiar Spirits In Church

We are dealing with um witchcraft and familiar spirits in the church. This is going to be so remarkable as you’re listening to this message its so timely and appropriate for where we are in the Spirit and how the Holy Spirit wants to grow you so that you would relinquish things about yourself that are not underneath his jurisdiction. Like he does not control that side of you. It is still unsurrendered. It’s still hidden from his influence according to you. Like it’s not hidden from his in it’s not hidden from his eyes. He could see it. But it’s hidden from his influence meaning that you’re avoiding giving that to him. I want to read something to you as you’re joining in. I want you to share this share this uh broadcast. But let’s read this look at what Luke Chapter nine says in Luke Chapter nine let’s go to verse fifty-one. It says, “And it came to pass, when the time was come that He should be received up, He steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem and He sent messengers in verse fifty-two before His face and they went and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for Jesus. Verse fifty-three says, “And they did not receive him.” Look at verse fifty-four, “And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, will You that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elijah did?” Verse fifty-five, But Jesus turned, and rebuked them, and said, “You know not what spirit what manner of spirit you are of.” Saints, this is this is so eye catching and it’s mind boggling. If you forgot, John and James, Peter, James and John were all on The Mount of Transfiguration. They were always go they was like the top three on Jesus’s team. They were the disciples that had the most adaptability, availability, teachability. They were more so surrendered on Jesus’s team. So when we look at the text it says James and John saw this. They were supposed to be a part of the advanced group of people that Jesus was mentoring that their brain was more so developing in righteousness and going further than all the other disciples. Jesus trusted them more with assignments than the other nine. He trusted them more so with secrets than the other nine. So there was a high grade of um impartation that Jesus had had given them He had anointed them very strong. But look what the text says. It says in verse fifty-four, when His disciples James and John saw that the people rejected Jesus their response was to turn to witchcraft. They decided that witchcraft was the best solution for this matter. But I want you to see this. What Satan gives people that are in the church is religious witchcraft. Because you notice that they had a scripture reference for their witchcraft. They said, “Can we do will you have us to call down fire from heaven like Elijah?” So how Satan put it to their brain was, “It’s not wrong because I’mma use the Word of God to convince you that is nothing wrong with it.”

Not of Jesus’s Spirit

But here’s Jesus the Son of God telling them He rebuked them. You know what rebuke means? To stop to aggressively stop somebody. To aggressively reveal to them their incorrect stance, their incorrect deed, their incorrect vocabulary. He rebukes them and tells them, “You don’t know what manner of spirit you are of.” Wait a minute. So He telling them that you’re not of the Holy Spirit. These are a part of the three people that have gone further in doing what Jesus said amongst the amongst the discipleship. And He’s rebuking them still and telling them, “You’re not of my Spirit.” I’m talking to you about witchcraft and familiar spirits in the church. Witchcraft and familiar spirits go hand in hand. Because what familiar spirits do is that they cause you to become disrespectful towards the Lord with what they convince you is innocent and okay. They actually empower you to be ghetto, disrespectful, irreverent, lacking discretion. They also give you a urge to avoid truth. They give you a urge to get away from anywhere that could enlighten you to wisdom. So they put an urgency on you of departure, “Go, go come on come on let’s get out of here uhuh uh uh uh uh uhuh uh uh uhuh!” They rush you out of redemption! They rush you out of Revelation! They rush you! They don’t want you to become born again, born of the Spirit! They want you to be of them! So they have to push you away wherever there’s possible deliverance. Let’s go to Proverbs Chapter let’s go to Proverbs Chapter twelve verse fifteen. Proverbs 12:15 says, “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes.” You notice it said his own eyes. So God did not build this eye system in the full. So who did? Familiar spirits. 

What are familiar spirits major geography?

For you to understand familiar spirits, what are familiar spirits major geography? Your bloodline, your family. Familiar spirits are assigned to each family. So often times even when you make progress in your obedience towards God. Like you’ll look at your natural family and be like, “Man they so blind! Man they so wicked! Look at them they so evil!” But you’ll notice that when you get in the flesh you tap into the same spirit that they operate in. Because the familiar spirit is assigned to the family. So every family on earth has a familiar spirit that is assigned to bring destruction to the family. Have you ever noticed that there’s some families where molestation keeps on going on? Because it’s governed by the familiar spirit. There’s like so many cases in that family where people get molested by cousins, grandpas, grandfathers, aunties. Whatever it is. It could be it is not just genderized by men. But why does those things happen and there like a theme to each family? Like some family all of them get on weed, they all they all smoke weed. You watch some families they all broke. Ain’t none of them got a lot of money! Ain’t none of them ain’t none of them got a hard work ethic! They all lazy! They all on governmental assistance! The Familiar spirit is making sure everybody they only reach poverty, they all beggars. They all they all even if they become religious their theme is, “I believe God! I know He going to come through for me! I know He going to come through for me!” But how is God going to come through for you? When your master that you have chosen to serve with your soul is a familiar spirit. So how how does God come through for you? There’s familiar spirits where their major theme that they release to a family is sexual demons, perversion. So you’ll see like everybody in the family they have weird affection. Like it’s a lot of men that have weird affections. You see a lot of women have weird sexual affections. You looking at them like it’s a lot of y’all in here! You know why? Because we dealing with familiar spirits. It has a theme for each family. So there’s some familiar spirits that cause everybody to operate in a form of godliness. “Amen!”, “Oh no, I bind that!! Oh I bind that the blood of Jesus!!” And they talk a certain way but they all demon possessed. You hear them talk a certain way but they all got evil spirits. They all are enemies of God. But they are very and strongly religious. “Oh I bind that!!” But then the next minute they listening to worldly music, they out in the world, they watching the award show, they in the world. They but but then they they’ll still talk as if they have spiritual authority. But what spiritual authority that they have that keeps them subject to being a participant and a servant to the world? That’s not Authority! Real spiritual authority causes you to turn away from this world and the mind of this world and causes you to be fully sold out to seeking God. Jesus is your interest.

Respecting the Holy Ghost

The other day, I was talking to a little child and I was telling them there’s nine gifts of the Spirit. I said, “Which gift of the spirit would you like to walk in?” I talked to them about the gift of prophecy. I talk to them about the gift of healings. I talked about the gift of the working of miracles. And I told them, “The working of miracles is to stop a problem, to solve a problem, to cause something to appear from the heavens to the earth.” I told him, “It’s the translation of what God has in the the storehouses of heaven brings it to earth for man to enjoy it. It stops a problem. The working of miracles stop a problem.” Then I told them, “The gifts of healings. I said it takes away people’s pain. Wherever there’s pain you cure their pain through the gifts of healings. Their pain is no longer terrorizing them. Through the gifts of healings. This gift is to stop hurt, pain.” Then I talked about the gift of prophecy, “Is the Holy Ghost showing you the future. You get to see the future of what things are going to happen towards yourself, towards others, towards nations. You get to see the future, right now. You get to understand the events that are scheduled by God to occur.” I focus on those three gifts. But I asked the child that I was talking to, “Who, what, which one? Which one would you like to have?” Imagine what that’s doing to the child’s brain. It’s creating an interest interest in God. But then you bring the child back into understanding that these are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. So you have to respect the Holy Spirit. So that when you get His gifts you don’t become a bastard. You don’t become a thief and a robber and you start neglecting Him in what he desires. Because once He gives that gift to you He never takes it away. Once He gives you that ability to operate in a certain knowledge of how to manifest the gift, He never takes it away from you. So then you can go to hell with the gift. You know people often say that a gift is different from the anointing. You think so? Let me just point something to you. The gift is not void of power. Just think about it. Does God give anything without His power tattooed and engrafted in it? No. So for you to say that it’s the gift it’s not the power of God. Um do you really understand what you’re saying? They was gambling for Jesus’s garment because they saw it as a gift but a contact of power. They looking for the gift of the garment. They gambling, they casting lots. But they know that the power is attached to the garment. Everything that God gives has His power in it. Remember, what people give to you it’s also carrying the realm that they’re in. That’s why often time. If if if you notice like people they just want to give your children stuff. Everybody is mostly disrespectful. See I taught you all in JHM a profound wisdom. I’m teaching you how not to be ghetto, how not to be disrespectful. Because you do not have the authority to access anybody’s child without their consent. And imagine there’s thoughts that people have, “I’mma buy somebody’s child a gift.” And you’re doing witchcraft. Because God is not telling you to buy them a gift. Let me shock you with this right. Now if you watching me. You don’t meet me every day. If you have a dream in your heart to buy me a shirt. It’s a practice of witchcraft. Because that’s not on the mind of God to give to you. You say, “How could you boldly say that God not putting that in my mind?” Because I know His mind! I am in His mind! So if you have a thought, “Man I, I want, I want, I want to buy my Prophet a shirt. This shirts are not… I want to buy my Prophet a shirt.” Because that’s not in His mind, right now. I’m not saying it’s not going to be in His mind later on. But right now it’s not in His mind. Are you hearing me? The Bible kept on saying, “There’s a way that seemeth right to a man but the end there of is death.” There’s so many things about you that you believe that you’re hearing God talk to you about and it’s not God! It’s you still in communion with familiar spirits. And familiar spirits their whole goal is to urge you to disrespect God. Over the years of my life as a Prophet of God when I was sent out by the Holy Spirit to even become public and start doing videos I did it because the Holy Spirit told me to do it. And I was so excited to do it! But I didn’t just do it just because I felt like excited about ministry. I, I had already enjoyed the anticipation of what the spirit of God will want. But when He but I stayed away from public ministry because I was going to wait until I’m sent. Not I have zeal, passion, determination.

The gift of discerning of spirits

So when I got sent out the Holy Spirit will have me recruit people. He’ll say, “This one right here. Pick this one. Pick this one.” But what was a eye opening thing for me was when the Holy Spirit would tell me to pick certain people I would notice that they were demonized. Are you listening to me? I would notice that they had a lot of spirits. And then I would .see the spirits that they had. I would see their spirits! And sometimes those people’s faces, I would stare at them and they would turn into the spirits. And I would look at the spirits. Let me share this with you. And I want to do a whole teaching on the discerning of spirits. I, I’ll probably do this the next broadcast. But in the discerning of spirits you see spirits on people they, they turn into the spirits. I’mma do a teaching on that. I’ll teach on the gifts of spirit. I’ll teach you on discerning of spirits because I do a teaching on that in like probably less yeah less than forty-eight hours. Definitely! Shoot, if I didn’t do it tonight, I’ll do it tomorrow. If I didn’t do it tomorrow. I’ll do it the day after after but. In the discerning of spirits the Holy Ghost opens up your physical eyes, your spiritual eyes take over and you can see spirits on people. You can see spirits on buildings. You can see spirits on nations. You can see spirits on someone that’s near to you. So I noticed that very early when the Holy Spirit would tell me to recruit somebody they were demon possessed. I mean everybody. I didn’t look at one person and didn’t see a lot of spirits on them. And so He would pinpoint to me, “That’s why I’m sending you to them. I need to transfer what I’ve given to your vessel to their vessel.” So yeah have me talk to them, give them instructions, teach them different things. I’m talking about all throughout the years of my ministry and I would notice there’ll be times where their demons will manifest. What happens is the demon is saying, “No, don’t obey this! Because if you obey this then I have to go!! You’re switching the authority, you’re switching the habitation, you’re messing up our living arrangements!!” See demons don’t want to be homeless. They’ll make you homeless but they don’t want to be homeless. Because their home is flesh and blood, is souls. So they’ll keep your soul in witchcraft so that they can remain.

Jesus lodged in a body revealed to you

At the end of everybody’s life, you will see if you go to hell for your sins rejecting Jesus. You will see where did Jesus lodge Himself in a body to talk to you to set you free throughout the course of your life. You will see with your own eyes and you will know it in eternity. Remember, that man looked at Abraham and was saying, “Let Lazarus come and give me a drop of water on my tongue. Let Lazarus come and minister to me.” He knew that Lazarus was his gateway. He knew it but it was too late. He no longer in his body. Jesus told that parable for a reason because he was enlightening the people that you could miss the body that He has picked for you to get free from hell, eternal hell. He pick the body, He fills the body with his presence, His Spirit, His wisdom, the knowledge of His will and He’ll send that body to you. The same way. Satan copies Jesus and sends people in a body to destroy your soul. Send you to hell. You connect with them, you get hooked on things, you think a certain way, you desire certain things and you fall. See all the things that are going on in people’s life is that they’re meeting someone that either has the destination of  hell in them, the destination of heaven in them. Everybody!! You’re meeting someone that has the destination of hell or heaven in them. And you study when you connected to that person, demons start to circulate more and more in your life because they have access to your thinking, they have access to your ways and you’re following that same pathway of destruction. You know sometimes when people talk to the dead, they say, “I, I’ll be, I’ll be there soon.” And they not lying because that person went to hell you going to hell too. You, you right 100%. And sometimes you be talking to people you be like, “You know I’mma see you! I’m, I, I one of these days, I’ll be with you!!” You, you’re not lying you going to be with them, if you don’t repent! You keep talking to familiar spirits, you going to be right there with them. You ain’t lying. You prophesying your future. You’ll find out in the afterlife though you, you may think that it’s a joke and a gimmick. Today, you might think that it is foolishness today. The Bible said “That the gospel is foolishness to those that are perishing.” It means people that have been deceived by familiar spirits, fallen angels they are are responsible. They give you that narrative in your mind that, “What God is telling you is false! Oh this is exaggeration!!” Yeah but you’re understanding the afterlife. There’s a lot of things we you know sometimes people like to debate with you, “I, I don’t think that that is wrong!” Yeah okay, okay you don’t think that is wrong. Remember, your thoughts not going to negate the reality of heaven or hell. That’s why the the Bible says, “What does it profit man to gain the world, lose his own soul?” Imagine your soul is what you think! Imagine when you get to hell it don’t matter what you think no more! It only matters what God thought!! In Isaiah fifty-five says, “The heavens are higher than the earth. So are my thoughts higher than man.” People are going to hell for practicing witchcraft in the church. They’re rebelling against God with things that He sends His Holy Ghost to them so that they could have the power to be free from those things. But they’re not capitalizing on the privilege of what mercy offers. Mercy offers complete perfection.

What is perfection?

The Bible say in Ephesian, Ephesians it says that, “God gives some Apostles, some Prophets, some Teachers, some Pastors, some Evangelists for the edifying of the body, for the perfecting of the saints.” Let’s dwell there. The perfecting of the saints. Which means that God gives mercy so that you could capitalize on complete perfection. So the purpose of mercy, which is opportunity, which is a door, which is a chance is that God is giving you the potential power for you to have perfection. What is perfection? Being led by the Holy Spirit. How do you be led by the Spirit? By intentional questions, intentional prayers, intentional confrontation with the Lord. God gave you a mouth so that you can communicate what you want to change, what you want to decree, what you want to pray, what you want to praise about, how to give thanks. God gave you a tongue so that you can speak in tongues. Everything that you’re supposed to do will be blind to you until you seek God. You’re not seeking God you’re not authorized for clarity. If you’re not seeking God you’re not authorized for clarity. You don’t have you don’t have no right to clarity. You should be confused, you should be lost because you, you can’t break the equation that God has set up. Everyone that seeks they find, everyone that asks they receive, everyone that knocks the door shall be opened unto them. You’re not seeking you shouldn’t know. Don’t listen to worldly music, watch the world, focus on the world. You know everything going on in government, you know everything that’s going on in in social media but you don’t know the Lord! You’re not seeking the Lord!! So stop acting like you should know what you supposed to do. You’re supposed to be blind!! Because you live blind! You don’t even have a sanctified part of your day that’s consecrated where you say, “Lord let me give You five minutes where I just completely be still and focus on You. And I Lord I want to say thank You!! I want to praise You!! I want to give you this time!! I don’t want to use no phone! I don’t want to look at no phone!” You woman that’s always on your phone scrolling and doing all type of stuff. Look at how you fail testes. You be at your workplace you have an attitude with your boss which is insane. That’s so weird. That’s so, that’s so much witchcraft. How you going to have attitude with somebody that’s writing your paycheck. But why does that happen? Because you already in the demonic. You already do in witchcraft. It when you’re in witchcraft it manifests when you’re tested by God. When He places a situation on you that it, it apprehends what type of spirit you got, what type of attitude you got. That’s why you fail!! You ever seen somebody arguing with the cops? Go spend how they spend their personal life. I bet you is not in prayer. I, I bet you they don’t spend their personal life with Jesus. Because they’re stupid in their calculation of decision. Number one, why would you argue with someone that has a gun on them? And they have authorization to use the gun by the state. Why would, why you, why would you argue with them? There’s a lot of evil things that people do when God tests them because exposes that they’re in witchcraft before they’re tested! But if God doesn’t test you, you will never even identify that you’re in witchcraft because you’re already blind, you’re blind to the fact that Jesus wants your time, you’re blind to the fact that you could read some Word, you’re blind to the fact let me meditate the scriptures, let me learn the word of God, you’re blind to all the things that will edify you. You surely going to be blind when you’re tested. You’re going to be blind to the reaction that God wants because you wasn’t giving Him the reaction before you got tested. People are spending their time in the world so it’s easy for them to be practitioners of witchcraft. They’re already nosy. You in everybody’s business. You’re not using social media for the sake of the gospel. You using it to get information about what everybody is doing. You have corrupted your altar!! And when that happens it’s easy for witchcraft to flow out you and all situations especially when you’re apprehended.

Bearing evil fruit

What’s in you, comes out of you. Remember, I was reading that text to you where Jesus is telling them he said, “That a good tree can’t bear evil fruit.” But many people bear evil fruit and they say, “You know um it’s okay I’m not really a bad person. I’m not! I’m but Jesus taught a different doctrine he said, “If you see evil coming out of you it’s because you are evil!” He said, “If you see my will coming out you it’s because you are good. If you pass the test it’s because you are good! If you fail the test it’s because you are evil!”

Truth it squeezes out of you the spirits that you have

But what man do because they have walked in witchcraft for so long and familiar spirits are really the prophets that are talking man! They’ll say, “No, no, no I’m not evil. They disrespecting me!! No, no I’m not evil!” That’s why if you a witch when you encounter uh when you a witch and you encounter truth it offends you rather than liberate you. It will offend you instead of liberate you. Because what happens when you’re dealing with the, the, the, the truth, the truth targets witchcraft practices. It targets the side of you that you hide from the Holy Ghost leading it. You don’t want the Holy Ghost to influence that and that’s where it targets. Truth!! That’s why the disciples you notice when the woman with the alabaster box was doing this unto Jesus they were offended because the woman was operating, she was worshiping in Spirit and in truth. And that truth offended them. They said, “Go give this to the poor!!” They was offended by the truth of Jesus. But if this woman never comes and worships in Spirit and in truth. These disciples never speak these words of witchcraft. You never see it. Truth it squeezes out of you the spirits that you have, the spirits that you have learned to conceal.

Greedy for corrupt knowledge

When you have familiar spirits, remember this they’ll have you hooked on liquor. You’ll be a drunk. Just remember that. You’ll get drunk with wine and alcohol. The Bible say in the book of Ephesians, “Do not get drunk with wine, with liquor wherein there’s excess. It says, it says but be filled with the Holy Spirit.” When you have familiar spirits they will empower you to be hooked on substances. Some people are hooked on pills, they hooked on alcohol, they hooked on narcotics, they hooked on different things. Because that’s what familiar spirits do. They want you to be um intoxicated. Thank you Lord. They want you to be intoxicated. Look what Proverbs Chapter twenty-two, verse 3 says, it says, “Speak not in the ears of a fool for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.” Did you hear what it said right here? Look at Proverbs 23:9 it says, “Speak not in the hearing of a fool in the ears of a fool for he will despise the wisdom of your words.” You know what despise mean? To greatly hate, to be greatly offended by. To resist. To challenge. To be upset with. It says, “Speak not in the ears of a fool.” In the New Living Translation look what it says, it says, “Do not waste your breath on fools for they will despise the wisest advice.” Whoa! Are you seeing this? Witchcraft and familiar spirits they have inf… they have invaded the church realm. Because people that are called by God they won’t stick to the Lord. They start becoming greedy for other knowledges. Look at our generation. They don’t even know the Bible but they talking about, “I’m reading the Book of Enoch.” Come on dawg! Come on dawg! You don’t even know the Book of Psalms, The Book of Proverbs, the Book of Galatians. What you talking about the Book of Enoch for? “Is the Book of Enoch real?” You still got things in the Bible that you struggling to believe that is real! The Bible said that the Lord give you a straight and narrow path. You don’t even believe that because you all over the place! You don’t, you don’t even operate by straight and narrow path! The Lord said, “Only people that’s on the straight and narrow path will make it to heaven.” And you all over the place!! You not on a straight narrow path! You look at your path you all over here. You here someday. You there someday. You come over here someday. You come over there someday. You over there someday. You over there someday. You conversating over there someday. You don’t even believe the Word and then you up there asking about other levels of knowledge. “Oh uh is the Book of Enoch real? Huh?”

Whenever you’re not focused you’re at your weakest state

See when you got familiar spirits they won’t let you focus because that’s how they weaken you. Do you know whenever you’re not focused you’re at your weakest state. You don’t have the ability to resist evil. You don’t have the ability to follow purity and holiness. It’s impossible!! Because the more distracted you are, the more you do not have the stamina, the endurance when it comes to temptation. You easily bite every bait. You can’t even see the snake reeling you in. And that’s why so many people are in witchcraft. They are weak. They not weak because strength is not available. They are weak because they have rejected the path of strength. The path in which strength is on, they’re not traveling on that path. They’re on the path where you are a slave to sin! They’re on the path where you are a fool! They’re on the path where you are blind, where you’re offended, where you’re easily subjected to weaknesses, flaws and failures!! They not on the path where there’s dominion, where there’s divinity, where there’s deliverance.

Just another statistic in their family bloodline

So there’s people right now the truth of the matter is there’s just another statistic in their family bloodline. Because everybody in your bloodline was witches. They didn’t tell you that they was a witch. They didn’t, they didn’t declare that they was witches. But they was witches. They was practitioners. They were demonstrators of rebellion against God! They live however they wanted to live and they did whatever they wanted to do!! You just another statistic!!

God’s smiling with me all the time

And see all these affirmations that man talk, at the end of the day, who you are is who you are. You could talk all this good stuff about yourself. If you keep on hardening your heart to seek God and run after Him and find out, “What is it that You like,? What do You want to see out of me for the rest of this year? What do You want to see out of me for the rest of this month?” If that’s not your goal every day to bring a smile to God’s face! If you don’t even believe that you could bring a smile to God’s face, that He’s always smiling, whether you sin or whether you fall or you stand. “Oh, He’s smiling with me all the time!!” If you underneath that delusion, you got familiar spirits. There’s people right now that believe that God doesn’t get upset if they do something wrong. But yet you get upset if somebody wrong you. Okay so you, you you, you saying that you get upset if somebody mistreat you!! But then you going to place God in a bracket like He a fool! Like He don’t got no eyes to see. He don’t got no emotions!! But He created you!! But you, you, you the first one wish somebody would die if they do something dirty to you!! You the first one wish that they go to jail! But then you look at God, “Oh, I’m wronging Him. He been teaching me for years the same thing and I’m still struggling with it but God not upset with me.” Baby come on dawg! Come on dawg you, you tripping dawg, you, you tripping!!!” And then what scripture could you tell somebody because we could go to the New Testament where Apostle Paul’s saying that, “Our God is a consuming fire. It’s a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of a living God!!” We can look at the great white throne of judgment where people are called from hell to receive their final judgment from God and God telling them, “I sentence you.” He giving them their final sentence! Come on man! Come on!! Don’t pick God out of the bracket of He being a real person!! You made in His image and likeness that mean God has a soul!! That’s what the mind of Christ is the mind of Christ is the soul!! Saints, God lives in real time with you. If He don’t like something., He going to tell you. And then saints, some of you all don’t even got the Holy Ghost! Because if, if you do somebody wrong you don’t just sit there and be like, “Okay Lord I’m sorry for doing that wrong.” No! Go to them and tell them, “I’m sorry.” What you praying to God? For the Bible say, “If you got ought against your brethren, you got ought against somebody. Don’t even sow your seed. Go fix it with them first, then sow.” I’m talking about how you handle situations right now if you get into it with your coworker right now y’all get into it all right. Bam! Bam! Bam! You know that you’re wrong. You go to God Lord, “I’m sorry for being wrong.” But you going to see that coworker tomorrow. If you going to see them tomorrow, go tell them, “Hey I was wrong for what I did. I just want to apologize to you.” See you going to see the person they, they, they, they are a part of your pathway. Like you going to see them. Don’t sit right there and do something wrong and then, “I’mma be quiet about it.” Man come on man! Say something!! The same way that you use your mouth to do the wrong. Use your mouth to accept that it was wrong. Don’t just sit there and then say, “Well I prayed to God.” And then you see the person and you don’t say nothing to them. That’s familiar spirit!!  That’s familiar spirit!! Because you wrong them and you see them and you rob them of the liberty of hearing your apology!! But then you go to God. Man you can’t even see God! You can see them and you failing with them. Come on now!! Bible says that, “Even if you don’t forgive your, your, your, your, your, your offender on earth. It said that the Father will not forgive you.” People are hindering their prayers. Because you mishandling people.

Calling God’s name in vain

I want to say this to you as well, people have familiar spirits and they call God’s name in vain. When something happens right now and it shocks you don’t shout Jesus. What you calling Jesus’s name in vain for? Calling his name in vain is where you’re calling Jesus’s name. And you don’t need, you not initiating a conversation calling His name in vain. Is you are saying His name without the intent to converse, to pray, to praise. People do it all the time. One thing that I’ve noticed over the last fifteen years of my life everybody that I ever saw called Jesus his name in vain had familiar spirits they were demon possessed. Every single person. And some of those people to this day they are in deep sin. Some of them are in deep sin. Some of them are, are some of them are porn stars. They in great deep sin. Because they was already walking with those familiar spirits. Uh calling the Lord’s name in vain. You calling the Lord’s name in vain. You already disrespecting Him. So your life not going to respect Him, your future not going to respect Him, your conduct not going to respect Him. Because you, you calling His name in vain. Don’t say no Jesus Christ. You notice that in the world, in the movies you notice that in their script they always give the actors to call the Lord’s name in vain. You notice that right? Every movie somebody saying, “Jesus Christ!” in every movie. You can’t from, from any movie action, comedy, “Jesus Christ!! Jesus Christ!!” in every movie. When you have familiar spirits they will have you call the Lord’s name in vain. You up there you shocked. You just hear about plane crashes, “Jesus Christ!!” You calling His name in vain. Why are you calling Him as the expression of surprise, as the expression of shock? That’s not what His name is for. His name is not to be used in situations that are hostile, they’re shocking, their breaking news. Their, their, their bad news. That’s not what His name is for. Go find something else to say. Saints, when you filled with the Holy Spirit and you see people call the Lord’s name in vain, every time you hear it, your heart will stop. Your breathing will, will slow down. It’ll upset you. Like you, you, you, you because you have the Holy Spirit inside of you it’ll bother you because it’s witchcraft.

Following your own form of godliness

When people have familiar spirits, they have no respect for God. That’s why I’m telling you. They follow their own way. They follow their own form of godliness. They are not saved. That’s why you’ll see a lot of people will hear the Lord saying, “Depart from Me I never knew you.” Those people knew familiar spirits. Those people had oneness with familiar spirits. That’s why they couldn’t know Jesus because those familiar spirits was guiding them of what was of God, what was righteous, what was holy, what was pure.
