Possessing the Gate
HEADLINE:
Genesis 22:17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
Those of you who read the Bible are aware that the Word of God is full of allegories, parables, similes, metaphors, and plain words. All this verbiage forms a complete shield hiding the contents of God\s message from perception of those who might read it. Thus, the true Word of God is a “SEALED BOOK”. In O.T. times, it was lawful only for the chief priest to touch and read. Ordinary non-priests could not touch it, look upon it, nor read it. Since change was coming, Father wanted all His children in later generations to have exposure to His Word, so He devised use of language to serve as His multi-colored “cloths” covering the words of Testimony. Add to that the invisible badger’s skin covering of devils on each man’s body, who will mislead men’s minds, and tell them lies about the meaning of what they read. Thus the unclean “badger’s skin” represents demons that are the outermost coverings over the “holy things of God”. Humans are ”God’s temple” and devils cling to all of us and claim the body as “my house”.
Isaiah 29:11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed: 12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.
Revelation 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. 2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? 3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. 4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. 5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
Isaiah 6:9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed. 11 Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, 12 And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
The Word of God is given to all inhabitants of the world. We know two kingdoms exist in hell, (1) devils are here in their “prison chamber” awaiting disposal by the Supreme Judge. And (2) human are here to experience a negative “exercise” with devils as they learn to make the best choices in a deliberate confrontation designed by our Teacher, Father-God. This earthly life is STEP #1 in the Scientist’s 2-STEP assize or testing protocol. In this regard, it is written that the Word of God is a “two-edged sword”. God’s messenger delivers the Word to both kingdoms when He speaks.
Isaiah 60:2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
Isaiah 29:18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.
Revelation 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength. 17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
One edge of God's Word is intended for His human children, and the second edge is for invisible convict demons imprisoned down here. God speaks through His messengers and prophets who write for Him to both kingdoms down here. This means each group must discern the parts of God's communications directed toward them.
Men cannot see devils, but we hear demonic words through our ears. Devils wanted to talk to Adam and Eve, so they discovered they could use ventriloquism and speak through the lowly serpent. Eve listened to the snake, and then all hell broke lose after SIN. Devils learned that they can reach men using human speech and snakes were not their primary choice. Devils learned that they could easily speak through humans, too! This brings us to our title. What does the “gate of our enemies” mean? You know what a gate and a door do! They allow persons to enter and exit unimpeded. The HUMAN MOUTH is also like a GATE. Words of communication to other men can have two sources, (1) from God, (2) from possessing demons on our body, or from one's self as men communicate one to another. So God's message to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob recognizes that possessing devils will speak through men as we speak one man to another. Thus the GATE OF OUR ENEMIES IS the HUMAN MOUTH.
1 Corinthians 15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
Now that we know a man's mouth also serves as the devil’s microphone to communicate their ideas to other men, we must constantly and vigilantly weigh the words men speak to us. Do not assume that your friend or brother has your best interests at heart. He cannot see the devils speaking through him, and you cannot see devils speaking through you. But we can do like David did:
Psalms 39:1 A Psalm of David. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Because we are in a WAR with invisible evil spirits that have power to speak through all of us, we must weigh all words that we hear and speak to others. Devils have another way to get into our heads. They have power to give men dreams and visions. Never be naïve enough to accept all dreams and visions and assume they are communications from the Holy Spirit. Devils also pretend to be holy angels from Heaven.
Jeremiah 23:24 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD. 25 I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed. 26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart; 27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
2 Corinthians 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
You cannot trust anyone including yourself, because you cannot tell when demons are using you as a mouth-piece. Remember, Adam trusted Eve because he could see her and she was His wife. But he did not know about what was written in their scenario. Look at this:
Secrets of Enoch 30:16 For I have seen his nature, but he has not seen his own nature, therefore through not seeing he will sin worse, and I said: 'After sin what is there but death?' 17 And I put sleep into him and he fell asleep. And I took from him a rib and created him 18 a wife, that death should come to him by his wife, and I took his last word and called her name mother, that is to say, Eva.
Adam had no prior knowledge of what God wrote in scenario in the Garden of Eden. If he had known in advance that Eve would be used by devils to get him to transgress, I am sure he would have blocked it. How can God tell us the story of man on Earth, if we know everything that will happen in advance? Events in the daily scenarios are hidden so they can happen and the story can unfold and proceed. This knowledge remained hidden until God revealed it to Enoch hundreds of years later. Now in this END TIME God is explaining some details in the history of man on Earth.
Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
1 Corinthians 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
When I attended church back in the day, there was a song we used to sing, “I’m A Soldier in the Army of the Lord”. I know some of you can probably sing it. How would you like to assist God and your guardian angels as they battle the devils attached to your body and claiming you as, “my house”? And believe me, there is a MIGHTY ARMY at our beck and call! Some of them are your personal guardian angels. Check out Our Angelic forces:
Revelation 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 3 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
Psalms 91: 4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. 5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; 11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. 13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
These are Our Family warriors that God has provided to us on Earth. You can assist your angels as they guard you. You can block devils on you from jousting with their dark messages by refusing to repeat what they tell you. And do not tell others about the false dreams and visions they present to you. "Put on the whole armor of God and do your part. Like David said:
Psalms 39:1 A Psalm of David. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
Be a Watchman at the gate, “your gate”, and do not let the enemy open the gate and sneak in some under-handed blows against you.
