Pergamum 26
There are impressive rewards promised to the saints who overcome the works of corruption in their lives. Sadly, very few saints know what these are and if you were like me these were things for another time, another realm, and only received once you DIE and go to heaven. The problem is that in heaven there are no more opportunities to overcome the wicked one and these rewards are lost forever. Why would we want to trade an eternal inheritance for a temporary lust?
I do not believe we are that stupid! Every saint has a desire within them to please the Father and to do His will. Jesus laid it out so beautifully for us in His gospel called the Revelation of Jesus Christ. However, in this wonderful gospel YOU are its focus and YOUR victory His end goal. That makes you something unbelievably marvellous and highly prized. No wonder Satan hates the saints so much and wants our destruction.
But I have shocking news for Satan and his corrupt kingdom. WE WIN! The saints will prevail, they will overcome their enemy and they will set up heaven on earth. No more war, no more hate, no more sin, no more sickness, no more destruction, no more death. This is our fight and we have won, are winning, and always will win! Come on, stand up, let’s do this.
Idolatry, which is giving greater affection and allegiance to something or someone other than Jesus, and sexual immorality tend to go hand in hand. If you see the one you will find the other. Now, remember, we are not looking for demons behind every bush and doorknob, neither are we looking for the sins people commit, we are looking for the DOCTRINES and TEACHINGS that these tempters use to draw us into allegiance to them. Identifying a demon without knowing how to deal with it is pretty useless. You can also pray as much as you want but until you identify the thought and belief pattern that has formed in your own heart and mind concerning these sins, they will continue in their works of corruption against you.
Sexual immorality is particularly dangerous because of the things that sex does in the heavenly realms. This is what the Lord began to teach me and then confirmed to me while on conference. You are now going to have to step into the heavenly realms with me if you want to understand what goes on when people engage in sex. From an earthly perspective it makes no sense, hence people always wonder why it’s so important and why God is so anti your having sex outside of marriage.
Also, remember that Jesus said that if you look at a woman (or man) with lust and imagine having sex with that person in your own heart and imagination, you are already guilty. In other words, you have already released the life of that thing before ever having done it physically. So, what am I talking about?
In the Garden of Eden, God released the power to “be fruitful and multiply” on the earth into Adam and Eve. This power to be fruitful and to multiply created a desire within their heart and mind which then gave birth to or manifested something in the earth. After the fall they were able to bring both life and death into the earth. Some things are brought into the earth through idolatry – worshipping and engaging entities other than God, and some are brought forth through sexual intercourse. Idolatry brings things forth through the mouth and sexual immorality through the physical union of the body with another.
Come back into the heavens and let’s look at what James says:
When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown gives birth to death. Do not be deceived my dear brothers. (Jam 1:13-16)
It now becomes vital for you to understand that you have “gates and doors” within you. You are the connection point between heaven and earth. You are the “portal” through which either life or death finds its way into your world and into the world at large. Satan and his minions engage with you in the invisible world – the inner sanctuary of your mind. Here they come and talk (teach and indoctrinate) to you and once they have your thoughts and imagination captive they drag you off into a full engagement with them to the point where the desire to commit sin is conceived which then grows within you until it’s time to give birth. At the point of being full grown you will either release it (the little demons you have created) through your mouth or through sex. Those you release through your mouth will bring you whatever you have sent them out to do, but those you release through sex will find a habitation within your own body. They also connect with you on an emotional and spiritual level which can suck your life from you, especially your life with the Lord, through all kinds of evil.
This is what makes sexual immorality so dangerous. This sin affects your body because of the evil that now inhabits it. There is a lot more to say in regard to this subject, but I cannot cover it in a simple blog. I do, however, encourage you to think about it and to ask the Lord to open up the eyes of your own understanding and to lead you out of evil and into His marvellous light.

Righteousness, which includes living a holy and separated life unto the Lord, is serious business but it is happy business. Nothing creates joy, life, healing and prosperity in your life as much as the joy and peace that become yours when you live a righteous life – a living, conscious communion with the Lord.
To the good fight of life!
