00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 17-11-2015 titled the Devil knows Fear. The Devil knows fear. This is.

00:13 I’m led to deal with this what the devil knows on a regular basis, frequently, so that you know what the devil knows and you know how to overcome it’s not you know what the devil knows and we do nothing about it. But first of all, remember, when you
wake up in the morning, we talk, think of loving others. You remember God loves you.

00:29 God loves you. These must be shattered. Our heart and our mind are wicked brothers and sisters.

00:36 If they don’t remember God loves us, we have a problem. Because God’s love is what God says. Love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength.

00:44 Love your neighbor as yourself and you will live. If you do not love your neighbour as yourself, you will die. Everything around you will die.

00:51 And if you have a congregation, you are in a congregation of fellowship of two Christians, followers of Christ. You love one another as I have loved you. Actually, that’s the second highest commandment for us.

01:03 For the rest of the people, the first highest commandment is love God. First highest commandment is love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength. Second highest commandment is love your neighbor as yourself.

01:12 But for followers of Christ, second highest commandment is love one another as I have loved you. Have a fellowship and then love your neighbour as yourself and you will live. And if you want to be sons of the most High God, love your enemies.

01:28 Even now you can do that, as I keep telling, by the power of Jesus Christ. By ourselves we cannot do anything. In fact, Jesus Christ has made clear, you can do nothing without me.

01:40 This is the understanding we must build our heart and mind to know. We can do nothing without Jesus Christ. We are nothing.

01:48 Don’t corn ourselves, don’t confuse ourselves, don’t deceive ourselves. But we get up and think of this love God has got for us. He died on the cross for us.

01:57 So when he died on the cross for me, I can love others. I have an eternity. I have a hope.

02:03 Today I walk in hope. No matter what comes, you have hope that Jesus Christ will see you through. Now, for instance, the number of times people seek for prayers, whether in the Tamil section of the power of Christ daily or in the English section.

02:17 And sometimes I will tell it as I’m learned to. Even the English section, when the Tamil section people need prayers, or even the Chinese section people need prayers. So far the Chinese section has not developed because our translation is not fast
enough and there are very few of our brothers who can actually translate into Chinese properly.

02:37 Brothers and sisters, having said this, then what happens? All the people who are gathered together in this morning message, they start praying. And now you see one brother, that Brother Peter, I told you all a few days ago or a week ago to pray. He
was at icu.

02:54 I asked God for mercy. And everybody, I’m sure, has prayed with heartfelt prayer. The brother has discharged.

03:00 They couldn’t operate on him because they only had two stents or whatever earlier. And now another blockage. They couldn’t.

03:06 Some, I don’t know, two stents or two angiograms or whatever they did. They couldn’t do anything because the lung was gathering with fluid and all that. But now he’s gone home.

03:16 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth, brothers and sisters. That’s why we together anything inform the people, put it there in the power of Christ daily, whichever section you are in and somebody will see it and somebody will start informing us. Or come
to the graceoflife.com and you’re not alone.

03:35 Now, this is actually worldwide. There are people in Australia listening this. People in Kampuchy are receiving this.

03:42 Vietnam, I think is India for sure. In Jesus Christ’s name, they’re receiving this. India and several places in India.

03:48 There are people all over Hong Kong, I think they’re receiving. So I do not. It’s all over.

03:56 So now as you begin to see. So when they hear, because they know love one another as I’ve loved you, they’ll get together and pray. Brother and sister, today we are dealing with the devil knows fear now.

04:08 James 2. But you must wake up and deal with love. When you wake up and deal with the issue of love and you know you’re filled with love, do the breath of God, whatever then whatever is happening to you, you think about others first.

04:23 Don’t start thinking of your issue that you want to do today. Think about others first. After that, after spending 10, 15 minutes on all this thinking while you’re brushing your teeth, you’re thinking of others.

04:33 While you’re having a coffee, while you’re. While you’re mixing our coffee or making our coffee, all you think of others while you’re thinking. Everybody all right, what’s the brother? The one.

04:43 The power of Christ. The pastor has asked everybody to pray for his brother Peter. He’s discharged now.

04:50 We’ll be thinking like that. And then brother Peter is all right. Lord, mercy, Lord.

04:54 And a simple prayer, you know, not a complicated prayer. Repeating, repeating, repeating. No, he hears us.

04:59 He’s Our Father hears mercy. Lord, make this brother come out of and have good health and declare your name and to follow you, to follow you properly the way you want us to follow you. Because there are times people come out of when God gives a
miracle.

05:14 They come out and go back to their old ways of doing things. And then the devil hurts them again. Brothers and sisters, you have power over the devil.

05:22 In the name of Jesus Christ. You have cast out every wicked, unclear spirit of fear and confusion and anger and bitterness and unforgiveness, whatever. But casting out is not a load, not enough.

05:33 You must then get into the kingdom of God. Kingdom of God is God says, seek the kingdom of God, righteousness, peace and joy. In the morning itself you see your righteousness, peace and joy.

05:45 Righteousness comes from Jesus Christ. Righteousness comes from Jesus Christ. By how confessing, say, I’m sorry Lord, I’ve sinned this way, that way or whatever.

05:54 And then calling people to settle it. If you have to settle the people. And then God said, by view of personal sin, that you think of lustful things in your heart and mind or whatever, or sexual immorality.

06:05 Remember, even masturbation will sin. Because slowly, slowly the spirit of masturbation will enter young people, older people, even middle aged people. Even marriages that have difficulties.

06:15 Some of our brothers and sisters may be not knowing, tempted to do masturbation. Masturbation is fiddling with your own sexual organs and having. Having pleasure out of it.

06:26 You can overcome in the name of Jesus Christ. Masturbation damages also the person, the physical, the marriage. Plus it damages a lot of other things.

06:37 Why a spirit enters addiction. Addiction means there are people who cannot stop masturbating and then they damage themselves. Brothers and sisters, I deal even with the congregation, I deal with the young people and all I’ll have servants and all
I’ll have their parents and I’ll talk about these things to tell them, don’t harm yourself.

06:56 It will be like a doctor dealing with sexual matters. Clearly, sexual organs, clearly we are not ashamed of this. God created these organs, so we’ll deal with it.

07:06 We do not shy away from it. Because God got a purpose for these organs. And our heart, our emotion, all that being dealt and the lives of the congregation, our minister changes.

07:15 There are still one or two struggling with it. We continue ministering to them. And as we see some changes, even for the few that I’ve mentioned sometimes in this morning message, brothers and sisters, be holy.

07:30 Righteousness, peace and joy. Righteousness, peace and joy. Then all these things will be added.

07:36 More than that, God says, now let’s look at this. James 2:18 20. The devil knows fear, I said 18 James 2:18Amplified.

07:45 I’m reading, but someone may say you claim to have faith and I have good works. Show me your alleged faith without the words if you can. I will show you my faith, my works.

07:56 That is by what I do. 19 you believe that God is one. You do well to believe that the demons also believe that and shudder and bristle in awe filled terror.

08:09 They have seen his wrath. 20 but are you willing to recognize, you foolish, spiritually shallow person, that faith without good works is useless? Very important. We are saved by faith.

08:22 But what is the evidence of this being saved by faith? You will end up doing good works. But it doesn’t go the other way around. You do good works, good works, good works.

08:30 And you don’t have faith in Christ to save you. Good works cannot save you. Faith in Christ saves you.

08:34 Faith in Christ saves you. Because he is the only one coming back. He is the only one who came from heaven yesterday we told and he is the only one who can take us home.

08:43 But at the same time he if you say you have faith in Christ, you cannot say I have faith in Christ, I’m saved by faith, I’m saved by faith. But you’re acting like there are people who say Christians act like demons. So how the reason is because that
means you really do not believe, do not have faith in Christ.

08:59 If you have faith in Christ, you want to love Him. And loving him means keeping his commandments. Loving him means prescription.

09:08 His commandments are prescription. Loving means keeping his commandments, doing good works as he has ordered us to do. And you are able to do by his blood and by his name.

09:17 Now here the deal that we are dealing with is the demons also believe and shudder and bristle in awe filled terror. The demons know. Devil knows.

09:26 Devil trembles in front of God. I’m telling you why. Because he has seen his wrath.

09:31 So now the devil knows what fear is and what fear can do. So what the devil does, he knows the fear. He knows he fears God.

09:39 He fears God because he fears God, not because he loves God. He. He fears what’s going to happen to him.

09:45 He fears. So he decides to destroy everything. Satan decides to destroy everything.

09:50 Take as many people as possible. So he rules the world, confuses people, tempts them with the things of the world and to take them all to hell. I would have gone there.

10:00 By mercy of Jesus Christ. By mercy of Jesus Christ he changes us, brings us in Seek the kingdom of God, righteousness, peace and joy. Daily, daily.

10:09 Now, now we are looking at how does what the devil. He knows fear. Devil knows fear about fear.

10:16 So what does he do? What does he do is very simple. He will try to put fear. Why that works for him? Because he knows.

10:32 One rule is as fear increases, faith decreases. You must remember the equation. As fear increases, faith decreases.

10:43 Or in fact, you can say the other way around. As faith in Christ decreases, decreases, goes lower and lower. The fear increases on and on and on.

10:53 Now, of course I’ve talked about trees of the mind. Listen to all that. But there are others.

10:58 Like for instance. So what does the devil do? The devil knows as long as he can keep you in fear of anything or something. And there are so many things that can create fear forever something will go wrong in your life.

11:11 Because why? What fear? Now, not only fear, we are talking about fear. Anxiety, anger, unforgiveness, bitterness. All this put together.

11:21 So the devil has many, many things to now put to us to destroy our lives. Stress actually is the body. Stress is the mind and the body’s response to any pressure that disrupts a normal peaceful state.

11:36 Remember, that’s how they defined it. Remember, faith decreases, fear increases. That means you do not build your heart and mind to believe the word of God.

11:44 In that situation, your fear will continue increasing. If you do not believe the word of God, that if you do not forgive Father, God cannot forgive you and will not forgive you, then you will learn to forgive. And how Spirit unforgiveness caught
you, means you cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ.

12:03 So here we are dealing with fear now. Now what happens? Faith level drops, fear level increase. Fear will completely control you.

12:11 Now I know what I’m talking about. You know those days before I came to Lord or born again, before coming to Christ, before dawn again, I would have paid the salaries and everything would have paid. I would have a lot of people now working for me.

12:24 And then paid everything, paid their commissions, all that done. In fact, the agents decided I have to pay hundreds of people. All that.

12:31 All done, ready, settled. Then finally I’m looking at. But still some fear will be there, you know? Then I think if I paid the epf, EPF without retirement fund, the government.

12:42 Yes, I paid that. I paid no debt for that. But yet some feeling of fear will be there.

12:47 Then I’ll go my friends went to the pub and drink or whatever, or go play badminton or go to a movie. Generally a movie or something. And for a while, yeah, I forget about the Fear.

12:57 But then soon after, one hour, two hours later, after that, fear comes again. I didn’t realize at that time. Fear.

13:03 Fear is a spirit, an evil spirit. You must cast it out. But after casting out fear, then the only thing I can replace is love.

13:11 I didn’t have that. Why I didn’t have God’s love. I didn’t know God loves me, so I couldn’t love.

13:18 So stress is the mind and body’s response to any pressure that disrupts a normal, peaceful state. That’s their definition. Now, stress goes on and on.

13:30 But fear is the root of stress. Now remember, fear is the root of stress. The doctors are dealing with stress.

13:36 Stress, stress, stress. Signs are dealing with stress. Stress, stress.

13:39 But fear is the root of stress. Now they have decided they have broken the stress into three stages. When the stress comes, there are three hormonal organs that are involved.

13:52 Pituitary gland, hypothalamus gland, which are both in the brain. And the other one is the adrenal glands, which is on top, sitting on top of each kidney. Now when the stress starts, that means fear is the root of stress.

14:08 Always remember, fear is the root of stress. And then fear will be combined. Bitterness, fear also will come.

14:15 Unforgiven. Fear will come. Because fear is actually the root of stress.

14:18 Now, fear. The devil knows this. The devil knows he has to keep you in this condition.

14:23 He has to keep us in this condition of fear. Fear of our tomorrow. Fear of our marriage.

14:28 Fear of fear for our race. Fear for our children. Fear for our grandchildren.

14:31 Fear what the congregation will tell you what will happen. Fear what the boss will tell you. Fear.

14:36 Fear. Fear. Fear.

14:45 Fear. Now when you keep on doing this, what happens? All the heart beat in the rate increase. Liver increases, the level of glucose and fats in your bloodstream.

14:49 Diabetes. Then you have the kidney overworking and all that. Now.

14:58 But temporary fear is necessary. God has put that because temporary fear. All these hormones that are released from these three pituitary hypothalamus.

15:02 And you’re talking about adrenal. They are good hormones. God didn’t put any bad hormones.

15:20 They are good for temporary situation whereby when study for exam, some stress, stress will come. And these stresses cause good that hormones will flow and you can remember better and all that. But what happens if this continues repeating on and on
and on? Every day your work is problem.

15:25 Every day your marriage is a problem. Every day your children are problem. Every day you’re getting whacked.

15:35 Every day you’re having this problem. Finally it becomes stage two stress. They say in the stage two, this continuously now these hormones are being changed.

15:43 Now they change the character. Hormones change the character and begin to damage. Now in stage two you can continue they say 10, 20, 30, 40 years.

15:55 That is why when I was younger, when that kind of stress. Yeah, I can take violence also can take anger, foul mouth, all can take. But later, step by step, the devil continues doing this and takes control.

16:05 Now as it goes to stage three, organs are damaged because you will have whole process stopping. Kidney become enlarged. Kidneys, the adrenal gland become enlarged.

16:14 Giving this all this and all other hormones are beginning other organs. Glory brothers. Touch of fruit.

16:20 Thank Jesus. Let go in Jesus name. All the other organs become damaged as they keep on going.

16:25 You are being damaged. You are being damaged. Brothers and sisters, time is running out.

16:30 So first of all, remember the devil knows fear. He uses it against you. You must rise up against it.

16:36 Spirit of fear can cast out you. And then you must replace it with righteousness, peace and joy. Replace it with righteousness, peace and joy.

16:48 Worshiping him, thinking of Jesus, increasing of faith in believing in Jesus Christ. What His Word says. Go to the Word he said and begin to use His Word to command our heart and mind to believe his word.

16:52 Faith in the faith of Jesus. That’s all we need to do. Faith in the faith of Jesus.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
