00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 6 January 2016 Satan’s tactic destroy marriages through self interest. Destroy marriages through self interest. Brothers and sisters, the last couple of days I’ve
been dealing with marriage issues of people and counseling.

00:19 Thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth. These are real issues. Marriage issues are real issues and they are important issues.

00:26 Because if Satan can destroy a marriage then the whole marriage unit is broken. There is no the people reject price and then what happens? The children are destroyed. The world becomes a worse place.

00:41 Worse place because the children suffer. Everybody suffers destruction and their own souls are destroyed. Therefore Satan ear massa or spearheads attacks on marriages.

00:57 But people think that Satan then comes after us. Let’s see that first. Peter 5, 8amplified Be sober, well balanced and self disciplined.

01:08 Self disciplined is key to overcoming this. Be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, Jesus Christ is saying the enemy is yours.

01:17 You know it’s not his. Yes, no, he is creator. Devil is not his enemy.

01:23 He created Lucifer and became Satan and he took away the power and gave to earth that enemy of yours, Jesus telling us the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, fiercely hungry like seeking whom he may devour. Seeking whom he may devour. Now
brothers and sisters, Satan, as many people think then comes to attack and attack the marriage and all.

01:45 No, no. Satan’s tactic actually first is to enter the marriage before the marriage. To enter the marriage before the marriage.

01:56 This is important to understand. Sat enters the family. Spirits all deal with their marriage.

02:02 Even before the marriage they know you’re going to get married already. So they’re already planting their seeds. They’re planting their strategies how to destroy this.

02:11 So the issue to counsel marriages we have to look at what happens before the marriage. That is where the issue is the soul. When two people argue and quarreling or unaging or disagreeing or whatever they all love and then they married and then
finally this comes happening.

02:31 Then you have to go before the marriage because Satan’s tactic is not suddenly get up, hey, they’re married. So now let us go and do something. No, no.

02:40 He’s already knowing all that. Family and spirits are with you. With me.

02:45 They’re following you through as you wanting to get married. They’re already planning their structure and they have done so many destruction to so many marriages even before you were born. Before I was born.

02:56 Because why they were cast out from heaven when thousands of years ago? And how many souls have been attacking since? So one familiar spirit is all the time a demon. Has been attacking marriages so many, countless times before your marriage came
into being. Brothers and sisters.

03:15 Therefore you better take wisdom today in Christ. You first of all need self discipline. Brother and sister, both of you need self discipline.

03:26 That self discipline was in Christ. Alert and cautious, vigilant, sober. God says, act like a soldier, spiritual soldier.

03:35 We do not fight human beings, human beings. We love all human beings, but we fight the spiritual beings which are controlling human beings. If a person is angry, then you cast out the spirit of anger.

03:47 No getting angry with this other person. Silly of me. After knowing this, I became so miserable knowing that I used to be angry with people when actually there are spirit beings attacking me through these people.

04:01 And then I also was angry with others. And when I realized this, I said, it’s a fantastic, important key information why I don’t get angry with people anymore. I want to see the spirit which is moving them.

04:14 What is moving them. And I begin to bind. You are not unaware of the wiles of the enemy.

04:20 Not unaware of the wiles of Satan. You have power. So you begin to attack the spirits that are destroying these human beings.

04:27 Feel sorry for the human beings who are actually angry or whatever with you. But first examine yourself. Examining yourself is critical.

04:35 You don’t examine yourself. You’re not going to get out of any message and be humble. Now, for instance, Ephesians 5, 29, 33.

04:45 No one ever hated his own body. Instead, he nourishes and protects and cherishes it. Just as Christ does the church.

04:54 So Christ does what? He nourishes and protects and cherishes it. Are you member of the body of Christ? I am a member. You are a member because we accepted Jesus Christ to be our head.

05:05 If you do not accept Jesus Christ to be a head and the husband of your soul, you are not a member of the body of Christ. You are not a member of Church of Christ. You can be member of any denomination you want.

05:18 You can also be a member of the congregation that I minister to. But you are not a member of the body of Christ. You are not a member of the Church of Christ.

05:26 Why? Church of Christ is Christ builds his church. I don’t build his church. Any other pastor can’t build his church.

05:33 Any priest can’t build his church anymore. Any denomination can’t build their church. Only Christ builds his church.

05:38 And the gates of hell will not prevail. You can build any number of denominations. So what? You can be Protestant, protesting Catholics, Catholicism, universal religion or whatever they claim.

05:50 All kinds of things can be claimed. Anglican, fga, assembly of God. Oh, so many Methodists, you know, all unimportant.

06:03 Including the congregation that I call whatever not important. Are you a member of the body of Christ? To be a member of the body of Christ deep in your soul, is it settled? Jesus Christ is your head lord and master, and you are slave unto
righteousness. And you obey Jesus Christ.

06:23 You have to obey Jesus Christ means obey his word. You don’t need to obey the pastors, including me. If I’m telling you something wrong, please don’t go and check the scriptures and understand for yourself and then obey the scriptures.

06:28 If I’m telling you the scriptures, you can’t understand this. Please fast and pray to get understanding. If I’m telling you the scriptures and you want to interpret any which way you want, you also can do, that’s your choice.

06:47 And then you will find out who is right, finally right. Whether the word of God is interpreted that way or you want to interpret. Many people interpret their own way because it suits them.

06:55 You know now church of the fact, when I’m teaching, when I’m even in the congregation, I’m ministering, everybody is given their own choice. You want to do what you want to do. But if you don’t want to follow the word of God, I don’t want to
ministering to you.

07:08 I don’t want to minister to you. It cannot work. It won’t work.

07:12 So I’ll be actually running spinning wheels only. And you will be getting angry with me because I’ll be using the same words of Christ to you. And the word of God will be convicting you.

07:21 But you will think I am irritating you. Can you imagine the word of God will convict you. There will be your wicked heart don’t want to accept.

07:28 And then you think I’m the one poking you. I’m not poking anybody. Brothers and sisters, I want to love everybody.

07:34 That’s my desire. Because my husband and my soul told me love everyone, including your enemies. So I would love the enemy for my own sake.

07:43 For my own sake, I love them. And how do I do it? By calling on the blood of Jesus. By commanding the heart and mind in the name of Jesus Christ.

07:51 I do it so as I drawing here now. Ephesians 5, we are talking with 30. Because we are members and parts of his own body, he nourishes and cherishes it.

08:02 31. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined and be faithfully devoted to his wife. And the two shall become one flesh.

08:12 You become one flesh that oppress both the man and the woman. You become one flesh. This mystery of becoming one is great.

08:21 Becoming one, the mystery is very great. But I am speaking in reference to the relationship of Christ and the church. 33 however, each man among you, without exception, is to love his wife as his very own self, with behavior worthy of respect and
esteem, always seeking the best for her, and with an attitude of loving kindness.

08:45 And the wife must see to it that she respects and delights in her husband, that she notices him, prefers him, treats him with loving concern, treasuring him, honoring him, and holding him dear. This the command so now Philippians 2:4 do not merely
look after your own personal interest, but also for the interest of others. Actually put interest of others first.

09:09 Why? That is loving your neighbor as yourself. Philippians 2:3 do not do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, through factional motives of strife, but with an attitude of humility, being neither arrogant nor self righteous. Regard others as
more important than yourself.

09:30 I fall into this trap a number of times and I repent. Repent. I repent in Jesus Christ’s name.

09:36 Suddenly I’m upset with somebody who doesn’t know scripture, and then they trying to tell me something and I get upset that he says righteousness, sorry, Lord, I do not want I saw immediately I repent and I cry out to Jesus Christ and say, lord,
change me, Lord, make me humble, humble, completely humble, and regard others more important than myself. Make me, in the name of Jesus Christ, ask the Holy Spirit to make me. In the name of Jesus Christ, ask the Holy Spirit to make all those who
are listening to this, to make them humble, to regard others more important than our own selves.

10:10 Amen. Now that applies to the husband and wife. Now this is a mystery.

10:15 He said the mystery. The man and woman become one flesh become one, you know, one. So that’s it.

10:22 Now, if either you have become one or not one. Now as I was telling you just now, that Satan is not going to get up, demons are going to get up and say, now let’s attack this marriage. No, as you’re moving towards marriage, it’s already in the
marriage, before the marriage has been physically, legally concluded.

10:43 Because in your mind, when you’re moving towards marriage, actually in your mind, the spirit of your mind, you’re being married already. It’s happening in the spirit. You’re being married in the spirit of your mind.

10:54 Only thing you’re trying to get approval from some department or getting some function or some actual religious custom or whatever you’re doing you’re waiting for that. But in the mind the marriage is forming in the mind, the marriage is forming in
the mind. This is where Satan enters first.

11:14 He gets into the act before the marriage. So brothers and sisters, if you have a wife, if you have a husband, you please obey this. First you deny yourself and pick up the cross.

11:26 Anyone not willing to deny themselves pick up the cross is not worthy of Christ. So first you deny yourself. First don’t think about yourself.

11:34 My wife did this, my wife that. No, no. First think of the other person.

11:39 Consider after all you’re married believing that they are good to you, isn’t it? Otherwise you don’t have married. Of course there are people of forced marriages and arranged marriages and all that. There’s another section altogether.

11:51 Today we can’t discuss that. Today we are discussing people who are supposed to love each other and marry. Now if they love each other and marry, that means that Satan getting into the marriage, while the mind is in the spirit of marriage, already
Satan already getting there.

12:06 Although there’s no real marriage conducted yet, it may be done three months, six months, eight months, one year later even. But Satan already got there. If at that time the familiar spirit will know if you’re self seeking, then you’ll build the
self seeking into you.

12:22 There to make you believe what kind of husband your husband must be, what kind of wife your wife should be. And then you begin to believe, planting the seeds. Brother and sister better understand this.

12:34 I used to consider after Jesus Christ arrested me, I was wondering how did I fall into all this adultery and all this. I lost my wife very much. And after I tell myself all this happens and one pride comes when pride comes, the whole thing
destroyed.

12:51 Some people have false humility. Hello brother. Hello sister.

12:55 Benjamin’s eyes. Deep rooted pride will be there. When pride is there.

12:58 The devil can easily mold you as a putty. He just molds you as a clay. Not this way.

13:02 They say he can mold you. Soft clay, he can mold you. Why pride makes you rubbish.

13:09 No strength to stand for righteousness. No strength to call on the blood of Jesus. You won’t call on the blood.

13:14 Pride won’t let you call on the blood of Jesus Christ. Pride won’t let you say in the name of Jesus Christ, command every wicked unclean spirit of pride to go out of me. Why your prideful? No one understands you’re prideful.

13:25 You don’t know you’re prideful. You don’t accept your prideful. So pride stops us from even calling Jesus Christ to cast out the spirit of Pride.

13:34 And that one if you don’t cast out, it will not go. That’s why Jesus gave the command before he left. Spread the gospel.

13:42 Those who believe, they will cast out evil spirits in my name. Pride is an evil spirit. And also pride, an element sits in our wicked heart.

13:52 So what the spirit of pride will do, what the demon will do, motivate our heart to become prideful. Activate the pride in our fallen nature heart. And then people fall for that.

14:02 So if you already have certain design, how your husband should be, how your wife should be, how they will act and this and that, and then the marriage begins to crack up. The very day it was formed, within a few weeks, you feel that the husband is
not doing what you’re doing he’s supposed to be doing for you. And you are feeling that you oh, this husband never care.

14:19 He’s changed, he’s dead, he’s dead. And then the husband, oh, the wife said this and that. Now I’ll come back.

14:27 She doesn’t care. She only bickering at me. Why forgot the husband is the wife is sitting down there so many hours and k.

14:34 She also while sitting down there, not concentrating on Jesus Christ. Concentrating on when will my husband come back? When will my husband come back? Come back. Unload now what has happened? Both have left Christ.

14:46 Christ has not left them. He probably not leave a faucet, but they are leaving Christ. Why the demon already operating from them before the marriage.

14:55 He knew. The demon knew what your heart is, what your mind is. He begin to do this and you have not renewed in the spirit of your mind.

15:04 When you’re not renewed in the spirit of your mind. The pharaoh uses all the old attitude you have, all the self seeking you have when you are single, all the desires you had to run away maybe from your parents. You want to be married? You want to
run away? Not really married, no.

15:18 So you may be doing that. So all that get in and hammering. Now in Jesus Christ’s name, you can cast it out.

15:25 You can cast it out by humbling yourself and begin to want to obey the word of God. You go to Christ, you fast and pray. You fast and pray.

15:33 You fast and pray. Oh, I’m a feed. I’m breastfeeding, mother, I can’t fast or pray.

15:40 Yeah, then you better deny yourself other areas. What food you want to eat. Don’t eat that food.

15:46 Eat the good food for the baby’s sake. Whatever you want to do. You want to watch tv? No watch TV today you’re fasting and other things you’re bringing your flesh under control now brothers and sisters.

15:56 The demon already started before. Now he’s moving, moving, trying to destroy marriages and then just watch out for other marriages. Because we have generational spirit.

16:06 Generational spirit. All of us come from broken some kind of issue because we didn’t have Christ. So some of us may be coming from broken families, divorced families, separated families.

16:17 Or the families are supposed to be intact but husband and wife never really had love. Or we are coming from suffering families, poverty ridden. All kinds of things we have come from.

16:28 So those spirits must be cut off because your heart is sitting down there means finished. The family spirit will be working overtime on this. Oh divorce spirit, devil will work on you.

16:38 Oh poverty spirit, work on you. Brothers and sisters, today is the day to cut and turn new life in Christ. Have a great marriage in Christ.

16:46 By becoming obedient to Christ and remembering you’re one husband and wife, you’re one, Christ will hold you accountable. Think more highly of the others. In Jesus Christ’s name I pray Amen.
