Topic: SPIRITUAL CONTAMINATION
Text: 2 Corinthians 7:1, 1 Corinthians 3:16-17.
Minister: Dr. D. K. Olukoya (G.O. MFM Worldwide)
Jesus is the King of kings and Lord of lords; the same yesterday, today and forever. Likewise the devil is still the same ancient devil, the weapons he has been using since the book of Genesis has not changed what he has done is to rebrand them.
There is one of the ancient weapons that the devil has rebranded for our generation. This weapon of the devil is:
-- being used to devastating evil success.
-- being used to de-anoint and to de-motivate people.
-- now being used to create a readymade 24/7 ladder.
-- now being used to cause confusion in lives people particularly the young people.
-- now being used to drag many unconsciously to hell fire.
-- being used by the devil to drag people in the pit of s*xual perversion and doggish spirit.
-- installmentally destroying the lives of many young men and women.
-- being used to turn many into zombies in the school of prayer.
Another name you can give to this weapon is: as injection from the bottom of hell fire.
--now being used to make prophets and prophetess of God to be very scarce.
-- now being used to remove salt from the lives of the believers who are supposed to be salt of the earth.
The trouble with this weapon is that once the devil is using it and he is succeeding, heaven gets really angry against the person.
This weapon punctures the spiritual life of many and deflate the tyres of their spiritual journey.
This weapon has converted many to twice the children of hell fire. It strengthens satanic strongholds in such people’s lives.
It is a weapon that turns away heavenly mercies from people. It converts a winner to loser and a hero to zero.
This weapon is known as SPIRITUAL CONTAMINATION.
“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.” 2 Corinthians 7:1.
Spiritual contamination, spiritual filthiness and Spiritual defilement.
Contamination like this is a very serious subject in the Bible; because anytime there is contamination or defilement the Almighty gets angry. This type of problem is not a deliverance problem; 3 millons deliverances or fire prayers will not help you if it is the Almighty that is fighting you.
“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.” 1 Corinthians 3:16-17.
Anytime there is defilement or contamination in the temple of your life, the heaven gets really angry and what they do is to destroy.
These days beloveth, people are being held in captivity by defilement or contamination; you may not know or understand everyday satan embarks on terrible agenda to contaminate us. He knows that once your body, soul and spirit is contaminated; it is smelling in the nostrils of heaven, you are in trouble.
Satan embarks on this journey everyday with a terrible intention of contaminating us and he does this by using dirty things, filthy things and rubbish to pollute our soul, body and spirit every now and then through media, friends, family and environment. What defilement and contamination do to our lives is terrible.
Contamination:
-- remove glory of God.
-- remove divine protection.
-- remove favour of God.
-- position us for spiritual attacks.
-- remove divine presence.
Once the presence of God has left a life, demons and all kinds of spirits have the right to torment or harass the person.
Spiritual contamination is a tragedy and it is has penetrated and destroyed our generation.
There are some people if they look at something bad, they can immediately wipe it off and they won’t bother about it anymore, but there are some other people when they look at something bad it registers in their brain and for like one week it would not be removed.
As long as it sticks or glues to the memory, your life is in danger – because heaven sees it as a defilement or contamination and so it lifts away the presence of God. As long as it is still lurking in your soul it lifts away the protection of God.
===> Any contaminating your soul must die in the name of Jesus.
The Bible is a spiritual book, it is written in spiritual languages; it is a spirit to spiritual people and you are also a spirit. Spirit fights spiritually, spirits can be used to work against you because you are also a spirit; spirits can block or obstruct you; because you a spirit there can be transference of spirit.
This is why when a spirit , soul and body is contaminated, it is a huge problem indeed.
What does it mean to contaminate?
Contamination means to:
1. make dirty
2. make impure
3. corrupt.
4. defile.
5. infect.
6. mess up.
7. poison something.
8. desecrate something .
9. pollute something.
10. disfigure something.
Spiritual purity is one the keys of being used by God (as vessel).
The world presents to us many things that contaminate our vessels causing us to be defiled.
There are four(4) main ways that contamination enters our lives:
(i) eye gate
(ii) ear gate
(iii) s*x gate
(iv) spirit man
Transfer of spirit is the strongest and the easiest way of contaminating a life. There is positive and negative transfer of spirits.
Negative transfer of spirits is a transfer of unholy spirit from one object or person to another.
Many cannot explain how they came about their reckless immorality, anger, pride, materialism and hatred.
We can get contaminated through:
1. words or communication.
2. evil association.
3. television, video films and internet.
4. bad books
5. generational evil transfer
6. bad music
7. evil laying on of hands
8. food
9. association with occultic objects
10. evil environment
11. s*x
S*xual contamination has resulted into many terrible problems like gynecological problems, terrible fibroids, impotence, backwardness, losing control of one’s s*xual life, marital delay etc.
S*x is not just a physical exercise but a spiritual thing. Anytime you have s*x with a person you automatically bond with that person.
Here in lies the problem the world is struggling with now, why our prayers are powerless, why after deliverance the problem is coming back because the soul is already contaminated, spirit is polluted and the body is defiled.
So you are praying, but heaven is covering their noses because you are smelling; how will heaven help you when you are smelling in the nostril of God.
You have resisted sin unto blood (shed) level - Hebrews 12:4
Without holiness no man shall see the Lord - Hebrews 12:14.
The foundation of spiritual cleanliness is holiness.
What is holiness?
Holiness is to be a partaker of divine nature – A holy person is like God in nature, his nature conforms to the nature of God. He has a like to God as it is revealed in Jesus Christ.
Holiness is to be like Jesus in our world which means separation from that world; before this will happen there must be purity and love.
Holiness is different from maturity.
Holiness is purity.
Holiness is a heart cleanse from sin and full of love.
Holiness is to be free from sin.
Holiness is to be free from all that is evil, unclean and selfish.
Holiness is to be completely dedicated to God.
Holiness is to be dedicated doing the will of God.
The secret of looking younger than your age is holiness. It is also the end of frustration, doubt, worry; God’s love will now fill your heart; you are far from world acquisition and personal ambitions that other people want kill themselves for.
Unless your inner faculty is really free like that, then every faculty of your body and your mind feel the benefits.
Anytime you are living unholy life styles, you are getting old and older.
The Bible is book of holiness that is why it is called the Holy Bible, it was written a holy God to make us holy people.
Holiness is putting off the old man and putting on the new man.
Holiness is more than doctrine, experience; it is JESUS Himself.
===>I am praying tonight that you will key into the benefits of holiness in the name of Jesus. (Amen!)
Holiness is not freedom from temptation. Jesus was sinless, divine, but was tempted.
Temptation is not sin unless you yield to it.
Just like a Christian can lose the experience of salvation, a person can lose holiness.
Holiness is not freedom from mistakes, a holy person could make a mistake, but he or she must not become a habitual sinner and be returning his or her mistakes.
===> I am praying that today the Lord will visit everyone in this meeting in the name of Jesus.(Amen!)
