JEZEBEL SPIRIT
The Jezebel spirit is a demonic spirit still influencing people today. It is known to attack church leadership, but it will attach itself to any human that has power and control issues, even in marriages. I have noticed that abusive men have the same characteristics.
The demonic spirit can enter, influence, or control a person, male or female. This spirit usually targets people who have a broken spirit, meaning a soul filled with fear, insecurity, unhealed wounds, unforgiveness, bitterness, offense, and resentments. Never allowing Jesus to heal or cleanse the soul, can cause them to be narcissistic (extremely self-centered), seek power, prominence, and authority. Power and control comes in many forms. It is the need to dominate – be in charge and rule other humans to get their way. (see my blog on Power and Control).
· It’s primary goal is to gain control
· It will do anything and will use anyone to get what they want
· It gains control of people in church leadership, the government, and marriages
· Those with the Jezebel spirit will then target those who are especially emotionally wounded, those with low self-worth, those who are insecure and easily intimidated.
· The motive is to position themselves in power and cause others to become dependent on them.
· It finds it impossible to submit to legitimate God-appointed spiritual authority
· It believes that it is always right, there is no repentance in them.
· It draws people to themselves not Jesus as “The” King and “The” leader.
· It loves to use inaccurate scripture to keep people down and inferior.
· At the beginning, they influence people by using flattery and false humility, they will tell you what you want to hear.
- They harbor, hostility, resentment, grudges, bitterness and will often seek vengeance
· It will always play the victim, it’s always someone else’s fault
· It hates being told no!
When people disagree with them, they tend to become highly emotional, will lie, use threats, false accusations, gas lighting, to try to bring the other person down to make sure they win and stay on top.
Once they have you in their clutch, they will use intimidation and manipulation to get what they want. They love having the last say. As long as you agree with everything they say and do, all will be peaceful. Others comply out of fear. As soon as you disagree with them or their agenda, all hell can break loose.
Others are too terrified to confront the behavior, yet we are commanded not to tolerate or bow to evil but expose it. God wants none of His daughters to be captive to demonic spirits. The definition of captive is: held under the control of another but having the appearance of independence. It also means prisoner. Don’t let fear or religious legalism (the use of inaccurate translations and interpretation) to keep you in bondage. Jesus opened the prison door at the cross to set us FREE!
You have every right Biblically and lawfully, to walk away and stay away from unrepented, toxic, controlling, domineering, abusive men. (see my blog on Abuse is Grounds for Divorce). Also get my book “Before the Ring and Beyond, The Ultimate Key to a Healthy Marriage”. Get my book “Let My Women Go! Setting Women Free from Oppression in the Church and in Marriage to recognize all the red flags of an emotional abuser. My newest book Life in God’s Kingdom, will show you how to succeed spiritually, physically, financially, and emotionally, living “on earth as it is in Heaven”.
Be free to be mighty for Jesus
In freedom and might,
