Does God use vessels of dishonour and nations to perform his will?

I believe so, here's a few reasons why

Romans 9:18-23.

Habakkuk 1:5-11. Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.

For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwellingplaces that are not their's.

They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.

Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.

They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.

And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.

Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto his god.

Another question asked is there such things as demon possession?

Here's what I believe and I'm not sure if it classifies as demon possession.

I believe there's ministers of Satan.

2 Corinthians 11:14-15.

These are amongst us everywhere we go and can be identified as tares. Matthew 13:36-42.

EVIL SPIRITS.

Satan is the prince of the world and he influences the flesh. the natural man. and the nations.

1 John 4:1-3.

These tares may also be seen in Jude 1:1-25.

You can't always identify these tares with their Doctrine, some of their Doctrine sounds very familiar, but what they "seem" to believe in doesn't humble them and in areas of baring fruit they seems to be lacking. This causes a closer look at their theology and you find them taking a sharp left on the path.

1 John 2:19.

God bless.

S.Spencer. Devil Spirits are the messengers of Satan or his spiritual army

And he's the head. In the gospels when Jesus Christ sent out the twelve to!

Minister he beheld Satan fall like lightning because He and they were tearing

Up his influences unbelief disease sin etc.

Amen Thanks Henry.

God bless you.

S.Spencer. In continuation a preacher came back from Africa and supposedly

Gave an explanation of how someone acted possessed. No instruction on what

To do or not to do. A woman who heard his teaching went home and her young

Daughter had a temper tantrum kids do that,. Her mother thought she was

Possessed and beat her to death with a baseball bat. Obviously she was locked

Up because they thought she was insane! I have heard Christian's tell me so and

So is possessed and I ask them why would God tell you that if there's nothing your

Supposed to do about also the love of God thinketh no evil. If the spirit is telling you

Something there is a reason. So they absolutely exist but remember they can only

Be defeated by walking by the spirit and authority in the name of Jesus Christ.

God Bless

I believe , and in fact know for certain , that many people use the accusation of 'they are possessed ' or they are of the devil or they are evil etc against people for their own purposes . I have known of people who have beaten tortured murdered people under the guise of exorcising evil spirits from them . They have used this accusation to ostracise people from churches families friends etc . This in itself is a very great evil . Anyone who does this to another human being is in very big trouble .

Blackfoot. One other point exorcism is part of the enemies territory look at Acts

19:13-20 is very spiritually eye opening.

Thanks Henry , I'll check that scripture out .

Blackfoot. What you say is true but the problem is these people are already

Being manipulated. You never just toy with the enemy or play around because

That's how he plays getting you to think this little thing is harmless like the cute

Quija board which is not cute or harmless. He walks around seeking whom He

May devour and many many Christian's don't think he's that manipulative or evil.

The secrecy of the enemy is the secrecy of His Moves and only the Spiritual Light

Of God's Word blows His Cover. We truly do not fight against flesh and blood!

God Bless

Thanks for your response I enjoyed reading it . We must remember though to fear only God , He is our everything . satan is a flea on my dogs backside .

S.Spencer. There is no question that devil spirit not demon(not in scripture)

Absolutely is real. Years ago a guy known for being a good father and community

One day started developing constant headaches all of a sudden went to doctor

Physician found nothing. A week later was hearing voices and bought a rifle

Went up to a water tower and shot and killed 5 people. When he was arrested

They ask him why did he do it his reply what are you talking about. That's

Spiritual and there is no other deliverance except believing in and accepting our

Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ! Years ago I was alone sleeping in a bed and I was awakened and felt something trying to crush me into the bed. I opened my eyes

And there was nothing there but the pressure continued, I called out the name Jesus

Christ and instantly pressure stopped and there was absolute peace. These are

Invisible beings i.e. spirit but manifest themselves in horrible ways. Another point

This field is nothing to play with if the spirit doesn,t tell you to do something don't!

To be continued.
