Ancient Persian spirit influencing modern political rally, representing spiritual and ideological battles.

Separating the Sin from the Sinner

This sermon delves into the profound impact of ancient spirits like the Spirit of Persia on modern ideological and political challenges, calling for divine intervention and collective spiritual resilience.

Growing up, my mother had a mental illness, which I did not fully understand until 1995 when my godparents explained it to me. This revelation helped me eventually forgive my mother and understand why she drank so much alcohol to self-medicate, as people with mental illness often do. Taking a sociology class, where I received an A, also helped me understand mental illness. Becoming a Christian in late 2002 further enlightened me about the ancient evil spirits behind mental illness.

We have discussed how Iran, formerly known as Persia, is influenced by the spirit of Persia which hindered Daniel’s prayers from being answered, as written in [Daniel 10:13]: “But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; but lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, and I remained there with the kings of Persia.” This spirit of Persia still exists and is why the IRCG (Islamist terrorists that rule Iran over the Iranian people) hate Israel, God’s chosen people. It’s important to understand that it is not necessarily the Iranian people who hate Israel—though some do—but rather the spirit of Persia and the IRCG that are influenced by this spirit. We, as Christians, must understand who our real enemies are if we are ever going to defeat our real enemy, the devil. We must love all God’s children as God does but fight against these spirits and the ideologies behind Islam.

In 2008, during the housing crisis, I lost my business outside of Detroit, MI. I worked for Comcast as a subcontractor, but due to the 2007 cable laws, they had to let me and my crew go. Subsequently, I got a job in Hamtramck, MI, right in the middle of Detroit, running a clothing store for ATN fashions out of Bangladesh for Muslims. I firsthand witnessed how the ideologies of Islam work as they bought up every business, gas stations, homes, bars, grocery stores, etc. Hamtramck was a mostly Polish town but is now 99% Muslim and owned by Muslims. This is the agenda behind the ideologies of Islam and exactly what they plan to do in every country. They were very nice to me as I was doing very well for them running their clothing store, but I was just a pawn teaching them how to run a business in the area as I had had other businesses there. I look back and realise that now, but at the time I was just trying to survive the aftermath of 2008.

Many of you can attest to the difficulties of that time, like our Deacon Justin who runs the church and takes care of all the technical online. He was a millionaire but lost everything to the spirit of poverty. But God has promised that Justin will get sevenfold back what was stolen from him. You are going to get back sevenfold what was stolen from you starting this year, as many of the modern-day prophets have said. But you have to repent of anything in your life that is hindering your blessing (ask God to show you), then you must pray and fast your blessings into fruition. Then pray fervently that you keep everything God blesses you with and close every door sin has opened to these spirits.

This starts with every individual Christian but then must extend to their town, country, leadership of their country, and then other countries for salvation to come. Pray against the ideologies behind Islam and for the innocent people being ruled by this spirit. As President Trump said in front of NATO, there is no room in the world for terrorism or the ideologies behind it. We must pray against it and root it out, as President Trump is doing by deporting criminals who entered the US the wrong way and by deporting all college students that support known terrorist groups. This is just a couple of examples of how he is rooting out the ideology of Islam in America, so we must pray for him and those in his cabinet. Doing nothing is a sin, and that is why America is in the mess it is in, so if you see someone in the US that is there illegally, report them to the federal government. Doing nothing is the same as being lukewarm, and the Lord will spit you out of His mouth as it was written to the church (Ekklesia) in [Revelation 3:16]: “So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.”

Whoever you are or whatever you have in faith, use it to make change for the betterment of this world, as it is written in [Zechariah 4:10]: “For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.” If you are faithful with a little, God Himself will bless and trust you with great things you can only imagine, as it is written in [Ephesians 3:20-21]: “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.”

Praise God, Praise Jesus Christ, and Praise the Holy Spirit for their second chance not only for America and Israel but for the whole world. God bless every one of you, and may He [Ephesians 3:20-21] you until you are so blessed that the devil and his minions fear you. I pray [Ephesians 1:16-23] and [Ephesians 3:14-21] over you, my prayer list, and myself plus my family every day! Let us know how we can pray more specifically for you and your loved ones. God loves you, and we love you more each day. There is no stopping God’s fervent love for you, no matter how hard the devil tries. If you have not welcomed Christ into your life, then do it now. Just ask Him to be your Lord and Savior and to lead and guide you with a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit. Don’t let the devil get you to overthink things; just do it, let go, and let God into your heart, and the outside of you shall take care of itself. Oh, we praise the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob for you!

Amen and Shalom!
