Acknowledgements
I am indebted to the church that meets at my home in the evening on a daily basis- my wife and children. It is to them that I always preach first. It is the reception that they give to my messages that propels me further. I shall for ever be indebted to my family.
I shall forever be indebted to the members of my Church, River of Mercy Assemblies especially the Kambuzuma Assembly which I lead. It is there where the concepts in this book were first taught and applied in full outside my home . To this day, RIGHTEUSNESS is our mantra. It is there where lives were transformed first because of the concepts in this book.
Hats off to my mentor, Dr. Noah Parwaringira. Large parts of the book had to be rewritten because of him. He ensured that the book is to a large extent theologically correct. I shall never be able to thank him enough.
It would not be fair for me not to mention my Chief Editor, Lordwell Manyika of International Bible Society ,who painstakingly went through the manuscript , ensuring that errors were reduced to a bare minimum. Mrs. Gumisai Maromo of Christ for All , Bishop Sevenzo of Full Gospel Church, Mrs. Masiwa Chibanda and Mr. Togarepi Mabeza of Denmak Training Services, Appostle Nyamuronga of Miralce Family International all took their time to go through the manuscript. I shall for ever be grateful to them.
Last but not least is my reader out there. You are special . Without you there would never have been a need to write this book. May the Lord bless you all. I Pray that the book be as useful in transforming your life as it has transformed the lives of most of those around me and mine.
Preface
There are only two groups of people in the world; sinners and righteous people. There are only two kings in the world; God and Satan. There are only two kingdoms in the world; kingdom of God and kingdom of Satan. There are only two destinies in the world; heaven and hell. There are only two roads in the world ; the wide and the narrow. There only two choices a person can make-any of the above pair.
It is important to appreciate that a human being lives in three countries in his/her three stage life. The first country is the mother’s womb . There the person does not chose. He/she just finds himself/herself there. Then there is the physical country in which we all live today. Again no one chooses to be in this country. We all just found ourselves in the country. However, destiny is by choice. The last country we live in is heaven, if we choose to. Thus heaven or hell is by choice. I urge my readers out there to make the correct choice today.
I have always wondered why so many Christians live defeated lives. The two world order happens to provide some insight into why this is so. Millions of Christians live in the kingdom of Satan but purport to be worshiping God. They claim to have a relationship with God but they live in the rival kingdom of Satan.
Satan is not a school boy. He was thrown down to earth with all the wisdom and power he had at creation. Since creation he has perfected the art of deception and today millions of Christians worship him in one way of another. Billions of young people across the world are entering into covenants with Satan daily without knowing. Billions of parents are also unknowingly surrendering their children to Satan day in, day out.
In his war against saints, Satan uses deception. He has deceived many to believe that they are worshiping God when in fact they are worshiping him. He has gone on to set up pseudo churches across the world using even fe**sh pries or their agents. A case in point is a fe**sh priest in Ghana who claims to have one thousand seven hundred pastors working under him , using his powers. Sadly such pastors draw massive crowds through their miracles. Unfortunately the crowds are drawn from genuine Christian churches.
Two World Order is intended to enlighten people on the existence of the two kingdoms of God and Satan. The book explains the requirements of each kingdom and the benefits of living in the kingdom of God. The book outlines the types and sources of evil spirits which commonly attack humans. The book further provides guidance on deliverance from evil spirits. Deliverance ministers will find the book very useful as it explains why some people never seem to win the war against evil spirits.
CHAPTER ONE
THE TWO KINGDOM ORDER
One day, I was helping a young girl who had a powerful su***de spirit. The demon said, “Pastor, sorry , this person is ours, she drinks our beer and smokes our ci******es. So she belongs to us and not to you.”
As I pondered over this statement later on, the Holy Spirit clarified things for me. My attention was drawn to Leviticus 18 vs. 26- 29 “26 But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the aliens living among you must not do any of these detestable things, 27 for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled. 28 And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you. 29 " 'Everyone who does any of these detestable things--such persons must be cut off from their people”.
Verse 28 was of special interest to me. So the land can vomit someone out of it because he has defiled it. If vomited but not killed, so where is the person vomited to? There is a special land for the Israelites. So, if one is being vomited out of the land , they are being vomited out of the land of Israel into any other land other than the land of Israel. So, it means this person ceases to belong to the land and hence to God. So, who do they belong to ? If the Israelites were for God, who was the god of the rest of the people?
My attention was also drawn to Leviticus 20 vs. 6-8 6" I will set my face against the person who turns to mediums and spiritists to pr******te himself by following them, and I will cut him off from his people. 7Consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am the LORD your God. 8 Keep my decrees and follow them. I am the LORD, who makes you holy”.
Oh! So the Lord can turn against a person . So one can be cut off from God’s people? Then I imagined myself on a game walk in a lion- infested game park with armed game rangers. I imagined them just abandoning me in the midst of the forest, unarmed at the mercy of the lions. Obviously, I would have no future in the game park without the game rangers around me. Could this be what God means when he says he will abandon me? Could it be that billions of people have been left to perish like someone left in a dangerous game park at the mercy of lions?
I then remembered Satan specifically making a request to God about Job, 8 Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil." 9 "Does Job fear God for nothing?" Satan replied. 10 "Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land.11But stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face." Job 1 vs. 8-11. Please note that Satan requested God to strike Job because Job was beyond the reach of Satan. Job only got attacked after God removed His hedge around him and gave Satan permission. At least Satan agrees that there is a power above his.
Then, I remembered Jesus telling his disciples. Luke 10 vs. 9 “9Heal the sick who are there and tell them, 'The kingdom of God is near you.'”. What then is this Kingdom of God? If there s a kingdom of God, should there not be a Kingdom of Satan? I wondered.
Then the Lord opened the eyes of my mind and I got what I thought was a clear revelation.
The two invisible warring kingdoms
The world is divided into two Kingdoms or countries as illustrated below.
WELL
GUARDED
BORDER
In my revelation, there are t
There are only two kingdoms (countries) on earth, the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Satan. The whole earth is split into two invisible kingdoms . These are like two countries which share a common main boarder like Zimbabwe and South Africa or Mexico and the USA. There are people who live in both Kingdoms. For you to understand the nature of God’s revelation, to me, let me explain using two countries Zimbabwe and South Africa
Zimbabwe is ruled by a President. The laws governing Zimbabwe are determined by the president of the country as he/she approves or disapproves them. Zimbabwe is governed by its own laws which are different from those of South Africa.
If a person who is a Zimbabwean commits an offence in Zimbabwe but moves to South Africa, renounces his Zimbabwean citizenship and adopts the South African citizenship, Zimbabwean Police cannot go into South Africa to drag that person to Zimbabwe in the same way they would arrest a person in Zimbabwe. The Zimbabwean Police would have to request the South African government to arrest the person for them and send (extradite) him/her to Zimbabwe. This is exactly what happened with Satan and Job. Satan wanted to harm Job but Job was in a different country from him, hence he was beyond Satan’s jurisdiction. Satan had to ask God for permission to lay his (Satan ‘s) hands on Job. If South Africa does not want to send the person back to Zimbabwe, the person remains free in South Africa although wanted for crimes in Zimbabwe. This was the case in the case of a Zimbabwean- born South African business man who in 2004 was accused of externalizing foreign currency out of Zimbabwe through his then vast business empire in Zimbabwe without Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe approval .The Zimbabweans failed to bring him to Zimbabwe for trial. He only came on his own accord later on. He had long become a South African citizen, hence he was governed by the laws of that country.
Julius Asanje, the Australian - born whistle - blower who for a long time has been wanted in Britain for trial concerning a blow- up of American and British state secrets, was, as of December 2017 still holed up at the Ecuadorian embassy in Britain. The British could not arrest him because by international law, if he is at an embassy, he is just as good as being in that particular country. So, although he is in Britain physically, the British have no right to arrest anyone who is on Ecuadorian soil because in principle he is in Ecuador and can only be tried there. If Assenje steps out of the Ecuadoran embassy, he will be immediately arrested and arraigned before judges in British courts.
The President of South Africa on the other hand has jurisdiction over South Africa only and not beyond. If a Zimbabwean applies to be a South African, the person will have to abide by the laws of South Africa and not Zimbabwe. Likewise, a South African who decides to be a Zimbabwean is governed, not by the laws of his former country, but by the laws of Zimbabwe.
Between our two countries, there is the Beit Bridge Border Post which is the only or main Border Post. On each side of the border, there is an immigration department which approves arrivals and departures. There is also customs department that checks if travelers are not carrying dangerous items into the other country. If anyone is carrying dangerous goods or goods that he/she cannot account for by way of receipts, he/she can be arrested and detained in that country.
Back to the invisible kingdoms of God and Satan. There are governing laws that prescribe how the two kingdoms are to be governed. So, the whole world is split into the two invisible kingdoms . Whilst we walk here on earth, we either belong to Satan’s kingdom or to God’s kingdom. Thus, we may be leading the praise and worship team at the local church physically, but in reality, spiritually, we may not be in God’s kingdom although we are seemingly doing God’s work. We may be doing all works of charity and even pastoring the local church, but still be in the kingdom of Satan. It does not matter whether we speak in tongues more than anyone else at the local church but we may still belong to Satan. It is sad. Sadly, this is a reality of life. What in your own opinion do you think Jesus meant when he made the comments below:
23 Someone asked him, "Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?" He said to them, 24"Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.25Once the owner of the house gets up and closes the door, you will stand outside knocking and pleading, 'Sir, open the door for us.' "But he will answer, 'I don't know you or where you come from.'26"Then you will say, 'We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.'27"But he will reply, 'I don't know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!'28"There will be weeping there, and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves thrown out.29People will come from east and west and north and south, and will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of God.” (Luke 13 vs. 23-30)
21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?'23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
24"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.25The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.26But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.27The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."(Matthew 7 vs. 21-27)
"27 Peter answered him, "We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?" 28 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.29And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.30But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first."(Matthew 19 vs.27-30)
31 "When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34 "Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.' 37 "Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' 40 "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' 41 "Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.' 44 "They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?' 45 "He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' 46 "Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life." ( Matthew 25 vs.31-46)
The ancient divided kingdoms of Israel into the Northern Kingdom and the Southern Kingdom in my view may symbolise exactly how the world is divided into the two kingdoms. The Southern Kingdom , which was the official seat of government for the Israelites, remained fearful of God. The bigger Northern Kingdom was handed over to Satan by Jeroboam son of Nabat. He moved out with ten tribes of Israel and only left Rehoboam son of Solomon with one tribe other than Judah; the tribe of Benjamin.
Immediately thereafter, Jeroboam led Israel into idolatry. 25 Then Jeroboam fortified Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim and lived there. From there he went out and built up Peniel. 26 Jeroboam thought to himself, "The kingdom will now likely revert to the house of David. 27 If these people go up to offer sacrifices at the temple of the LORD in Jerusalem, they will again give their allegiance to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah. They will kill me and return to King Rehoboam." 28 After seeking advice, the king made two golden calves. He said to the people, "It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Here are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt." 29 One he set up in Bethel, and the other in Dan. 30 And this thing became a sin; the people went even as far as Dan to worship the one there. 31 Jeroboam built shrines on high places and appointed priests from all sorts of people, even though they were not Levites. 32 He instituted a festival on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, like the festival held in Judah, and offered sacrifices on the altar. This he did in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves he had made. And at Bethel he also installed priests at the high places he had made. 33 On the fifteenth day of the eighth month, a month of his own choosing, he offered sacrifices on the altar he had built at Bethel. So he instituted the festival for the Israelites and went up to the altar to make offerings.
(1st Kings 12 vs. 25-33). He literally surrendered it to Satan lock, stock and barrel - with all its people.
The two kingdoms lived like that for a very long time. The Northern Kingdom was worshiping Satan whereas the Southern Kingdom worshiped God until it too got corrupted. Naturally it was the Southern kingdom that was much more stable and prosperous. This is exactly how today’s world is divided.
The imaginary heavenly contract
As I applied my brains on these two kingdoms, I imagined a contract being made between God and Satan with Satan asking God to decide on who His people were and how he would identify them. I imagined God giving Moses the ten commandments, 1 And God spoke all these words: 2 "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 3 "You shall have no other gods before me.4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand [ generations] of those who love me and keep my commandments. 7 "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. 8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. 11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. 12 "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you. 13 "You shall not murder.14 "You shall not commit adultery.15 "You shall not steal.16 "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.". (Exodus 20 vs. 1-17)
I then imagined Satan telling God, “Lord, you have set the standards for your people, hence you have named them. I am not setting any standards, the remainder is mine; whoever is not yours is mine. Thus whoever does what you have said must not be done or whoever does not do what you said must be done is mine.” This is why it is written, 8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast--all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world. (Revelation 13 vs. 8)
I likened this contract to the verbal one between Abram and Lot,” And quarreling arose between
Abram's herdsmen and the herdsmen of Lot. The Canaanites and Perizzites were also living in
the land at that time. So Abram said to Lot, "Let's not have any quarreling between you and
me, or between your herdsmen and mine, for we are brothers.
Is not the whole land before you? Let's part company. If you go to the left, I'll go to the right; if
you go to the right, I'll go to the left." Lot looked up and saw that the whole plain of the Jordan
was well watered, like the garden of the LORD , like the land of Egypt, toward Zoar. (This was
before the LORD destroyed S***m and Gomorrah.) So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of
the Jordan and set out toward the east. The two men parted company:
Abram lived in the land of Canaan, while Lot lived among the cities of the plain and pitched
his tents near S***m.
Identification of people
Where I come from in rural Mberengwa, south - western Zimbabwe, we keep a lot of livestock. Every household puts a unique mark on either the left ear or the right ear of its livestock. We call it rupaho in our native Karanga language. As herd- boys, we would go as boys from various households to herd livestock. Livestock from different households would mix and mingle and would be herded as if they belonged to one household. When evening came, the time to put the livestock into their respective pens, if two animals were identical we would check the ears for identification.
Consider too what happens on earth. Governments of the earth issue national identity cards to each of their citizens whether they like it or not. Governments of the earth will issue passports that allow easy identification of people across borders. If humans have devised a way of identifying and classifying people, surely in the spiritual kingdoms this also takes place.
So I also assumed that this concept of identifying people is actually a heavenly concept. God and Satan must also have agreed on how to identify their subjects. Scripture suggests that God made the move first. During the very formative days of the Israeli nation, back in Egypt, God told the Israelites,
“7 Then they are to take some of the meat blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs. 8 That same night they are to eat the roasted over the fire, along with bitter herbs, and bread made without yeast.9 Do not eat the meat raw or cooked in water, but roast it over the fire-head, legs and inner parts. 10 Do not leave any of it till morning; if some is left till morning, you must burn it. 11 This is how you are to eat it: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste; it is the LORD's Passover.
12 "On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn-both men
and animals-and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD .
13 The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I
will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.” (Exodus 12 vs.7-13)
God’s angel passed through the land of Egypt killing all the first- born of animals and humans
except for the Israelites. There had to be a mark on the door post from outside. That
would act as a sign to the angel of death that the occupants of the house were Israeli. The
remainder obviously remained to Satan , hence these were to be affected.
Thousands of years later, a descendant of these Israeli people was writing about a similar sign.
“1 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea: 3"Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God."(Revelations 7 vs.1-4)
Henceforth, we have a new identity – Christian.
Then it was Satan’s turn. I guess all he said was, “Lord, the remainder is mine.”“16 He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, 17 so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. 18 This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666.”(Revelation 13 vs. 16-18)
Satan obviously forces all who did not bear God’s seal on their foreheads to have his mark because they belong to him by default, by virtue of them not belonging to God.
So brothers and sisters and my spiritual children out there, there is no such thing as being non-aligned. You either belong to God or you belong to Satan. As it is, if you are not with God you are certainly with Satan. In fact, verse 8 makes it even clearer , “All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast-all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world. ”(Revelations 13 vs. 8) I implore you to find Christ now.
Please note that Theologians believe that the scriptures quoted above in Revelation 7 and 13 refer to a time yet to come; the time of tribulations. However I find them applicable to explain the current situation in the life we live today. I find them relevant in explaining the division of the world into two kingdoms. So, as you read the two scriptures in this book please take note of the reservations of Theologians to their application in our context.
Paul also confirmed this spiritual marking of believers for Christ with a seal almost as it is in Revelation 7. 13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession--to the praise of his glory. (Ephesians1 vs.13-14)
Paul also acknowledged the existence of such kingdoms and in a way almost supports the relevance of Revelation 13 vs.8 to our present day situation. He wrote to the Colossians;12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. (Colossians 1 vs. 12.13)
So, we may sit in church as Christians but in that church are people who belong to the kingdom of God and people who belong to the kingdom of Satan. It is not about where you are physically but what you subscribe to; what you succumb to. I have known of pastors who literally sing in tongues but are highly immoral . I have known of pastors who preach holiness and love but are extremely cruel. I have known of pastors who preach giving but they never give anyone anything. I have known of pastors who preach divorce in church, who literally encourage divorce. I have known of pastors who would sacrifice their children for love outside wed-lock. Please keep watch over yourself in case you labour in vain.
What do you think Jesus meant when he said, “24 Jesus told them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. 26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. 27 "The owner's servants came to him and said, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?' 28 " 'An enemy did this,' he replied. "The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and pull them up?' 29 " 'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.' "( Matthew 13 vs.24-30)
Thus, we live on this earth as if we are all good people. On the day we die, the day we are harvested from the earth, this is when a decision is made as to where our spirit should go - heaven or hell.
The significance of sin -what happens when you sin
During my days as a herd- boy, back in the 1970s we would occasionally take cattle for sale at cattle auctions which we used to call mariketi (for English word -market). The rich white farmers would be sitting on the buyers’ bays, puffing thick smoke from their smoking pipes, raising their cards if they wanted a beast. When a beast was declared sold, it would be stamped with hot iron bearing the buyer’s card number. We called the hot iron mark muchiso. This was a unique number that would identify whose beast it was.
Now, the moment we sin, Satan puts a mark on our foreheads as a sign that he has purchased us so we bear Satan’s buying card number. Hence, the writer of Revelations wrote, “10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: "Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down.”
What do you think is the significance of the statement “For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night?”. I presume what Satan actually says to God is ,”God, you say John is yours, no he is mine. Look at him, he is having s*x with Mavis just now. Remember your people are those who do not commit adultery nor fornication, surely he is mine. Look at Rumbidzai; she is kissing John who is not her husband, so even Rumbidzai is mine even though I allow her to sing for you on Sundays .Even though she pretends to love you-she is mine and I am sure you do not doubt that, God. God, you say Nomsa is yours? Look at her; she has not forgiven her aunt for over a month now. Remember that your people are supposed to forgive their enemies, surely she is mine. You say Samson is yours? Look, Samson is full of jealousy, ever scheming on how to do evil to his sister, surely he is mine. “ I can picture serous haggling for people in the heavens. Fortunately, God says 6 "I the LORD do not change….”.(Malachi 3).So he will allow Satan to rule over sinners. All Satan needs is your sinful act for him to buy you. SIN IS SATAN ‘S INTERNATIONALY ACCEPTED CURRENCY THAT HE USES TO BUY US.
God is an excellent democrat. He will acknowledge a loss if he has to. He will not change the rules of the game to win at all cost.
The significance of receiving Christ
When we receive Christ here on earth , we are literally applying for citizenship of the kingdom of God which citizenship is readily availed. I honestly believe that at this stage people must first pray for forgiveness of sins including generational sins. I also think it is far more appropriate for people at this stage to renounce the citizenship of the kingdom of Satan as the person takes up the citizenship of the kingdom of God. I have known church leaders to be trigger - happy about the numbers of people giving their lives to Christ but the truth is that they may not last long in the kingdom of God. Very few churches have new believers’ booklets that advise them on Christian living and the terms of the kingdom of God. In the majority of times the people are back in the kingdom of Satan before the week even comes to an end. This is exactly what Jesus meant in the parable of the Sower. Very few people understand the nature of the spiritual kingdoms.
5"A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it
was trampled on, and the birds of the air ate it up. 6 Some fell on rock, and when it came up,
the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew
up with it and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a
crop, a hundred times more than was sown."
When he said this, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
9 His disciples asked him what this parable meant.
10 He said, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, " 'though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.'[1]
11 "This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those along the path are
the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so
that they may not believe and be saved. 13 Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word
with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of
testing they fall away. 14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as
they go on their way they are choked by life's worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not
mature. 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear
the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop (Luke 8 vs. 5-15)
Imagine your car is stolen. Would you not go around looking for it and if you find it would you not make attempts to reclaim it? So why are pastors so naïve that after Satan has lost a person to Christ , there is peace in the kingdom of Satan? No! If anything there is war. Meetings are actually held and Satan’s angels have to account why they have lost an individual to Christ. Strategies are devised on how the person can quickly be recovered. God has meetings with his angels (Job 1 vs. 6 ; 1st Kings 22 vs. 19-22). Satan also holds meetings with his angels; the demons. I have been involved in deliverance for several years now. Demons always refuse to go for various reasons including that they are afraid of their bosses.
Tangible benefits and intangible benefits
The devil is offering tangibles. Satan is offering money, good living, s*x, beer, drugs, parties, good cars , now and not later. These are all short - term earthly benefits. God offers you blessings which carry prosperity and protection from evil forces. God offers you the invisible; the intangible and these are more valuable than the devil’s tangibles. In the kingdom of God we seem to be selling hope. No we are offering for free, blessings. What you give up when you take any of what the devil offers you is your everlasting blessings for short - term benefits. Consider the case of Esau and Jacob. For a mere bowl of soup, Esau gave up the intangible birthright which carried blessings. The much wiser Jacob went for the invisible blessings. What Esau did not realize was that when he sold his birthright, he was selling his blessings; he was literally selling his everlasting relationship with God. He was selling all the victories against his enemies and receiving defeat instead. He was selling the whole of Canaan to Jacob for a bowl of soup. That transaction stands out as the most remarkable one of its kind real estate transaction ever recorded in human history. Today about a quarter of the four hundred richest people in the world are Jews; the descendants of Jacob.
The new convert is never alerted to the possible strategies that the devil will use. I wish I could find a better way of telling pastors of the world that they have far much less people than they see filling their isles in churches every Sunday or Sabbath.
