BLESSING EXPLANATIONS

My Dear Precious Child,
   When Jesus Christ was demonstrating My magnificent power to the masses of people in order to bring freedom to them from the works of the devil, His situations in the earth became more and more confrontational from the religious and political Jews.  Those Pharisees were threatened because of Jesus' popularity with the crowds of people who were being healed by Him.  The Pharisees were afraid that His wonderful works and His teachings about My kingdom of God would result in the people ceasing to worship in their temples and synagogues, thus causing the politicians and religious leaders to lose their places of honor in the Jewish earthly nation.      
   After Jesus Christ healed the deaf and dumb man of a demon and the man spoke and saw for the first time, it was such an astoundingly and marvelous display of My power that the political and religious Pharisees became even more empowered by evil to oppose Jesus openly and accuse Him before the crowds.  They turned from merely accusing Him of being a lawbreaker of religious and political laws and instead accused Him or driving out the demons by the help and power of the devil Beelzebub.  (Matthew 12:22-25)   
    Knowing their thoughts, Jesus reminded them that any kingdom that is divided against itself will not stand, that it will be brought to desolation and waste.  He expounded on that explanation by saying that even a city or household that is divided against itself will not last or continue to stand.  His insight into that revelation was that the devil is the one who divides the cites and countries and then he continues to work his destructive works until the countries and cities are completely devastated and destroyed.
    Expounding further on that truth, Jesus said that if He were to drive out demons with the help of Beelzebub, which He did not of course, then by whose help would the sons of their kingdom and cities, whose father was the devil, drive them out?  He said that they would be the judges of the Pharisees. (John 8:44-49; Matthew 12:26-7)
   Jesus professed My truth soundly when He said that when He drives out demons with My finger, which is My Holy Spirit, then My kingdom of God comes upon the person.  (Matthew 12:28)  In His explanation about the battle in the earth going on between good and evil He asked the Pharisees how can anyone go into another man's house and carry off goods without first binding up the security guard who is in charge of guarding the house?  
   In that statement He was giving them a clue into the truth that He was going to soon be crucified and go to hell where He would bind up the devil's powers in the world by taking the authority over heaven and earth from the devil.   He knew that His ministry later was that when He sent My Holy Spirit to live inside of people that they would have My same power of the Holy Spirit over all of the works of the demons, just like He had when He ministered to people.  
    Jesus told the crowd that if they are not for Him that they are in truth against Him because anyone who does not gather with Him will, in truth, scatter people in opposition to Him because they are trying to have two masters, My kingdom and the kingdom of the devil.   You cannot mix good and evil.  You will either love Me and reject evil, or you will bind yourself to the devil and reject Me. (Matthew 6:24)
    The Pharisees were convinced that they were righteous because they had the political and religious laws as their guide.  Later My prophet Paul said that the Spirit of Life that was in Christ Jesus had set him and other people free from the law of sin and death. (Romans 8:2)  Jesus Christ died so that He could defeat the devil in his hell and take back the authority from him to the earth that Adam had given to the devil.  First Jesus had to bind in spiritual chains the devil's power.  After He rose from the dead He sent My Holy Spirit, the same power that raised Him from the dead, into the world to be completely incorporated into the lives of the people who accept the ministry of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins.  
   The people who become baptized in the Holy Spirit bind themselves to Me through the power of My Holy Spirit and they have My power incumbent in them over all of the demons in the earth.  My desire is that they will accept their calling from Me and become completely led by My Holy Spirit and pray intercessory prayers in My Holy Spirit.  When they do, I am able to do super abundantly, far and above, and even more than they can dare think, ask, dream or desire, all according to the power of My Holy Spirit that lives inside of them.(Ephesians 3:10)  They become My prophets in the earth, speaking for Me to people and to My angels, and they also speak for Me in My spiritual prayer language to the demons in the earth, sending them to their final resting place in the fiery furnace.
    All of it is worth celebrating!
    Your Father of Shared Power
