Spiritual Warfare in Marriage // #RelationshipGoals (Part 3)

marriage and relationships is a beautiful thing somebody says you know marriages are made in heaven so it's thunder sometimes it's some beautiful but it could shine so so crazy every marriage it needs these three things we need to plant good seeds remove weeds and kill the snake in marriage you need to learn to remove weeds remove weeds could also mean to learn to pick up your dirty underwear dirty socks remove weeds my me that if you're a gentleman and you're following a lot of girls who don't cannot afford to buy clothes you unfollow them on your Instagram remove weeds could mean that you you bite your tongue it's not worth to look at Victoria who has no secrets in the mall it's not worth to look at her when you're walking with your husband or with your wife and because it's not worth the fight this you're gonna get afterwards so removing weeds is practical things planting seeds is simple things it's giving words of compliments it's giving attention it's giving flowers it's spending time together it's it's being nice to each other planting seeds but Adam and Eve failed at this one they didn't kill a snake in the Garden of Eden there was a snake that was in that garden and that snake came and started to talk to Eve and Eve is the first snake talker she should have not been talking back to this if it ever said a snake ever talks to you don't talk back it's not a good place to be in and Eve just talks back to the snake like she's like talking to somebody and the snake finally convinces her deceives is Eve and disarms even Eve reaches out and takes the fruit and the Bible says she gives to the husband who was with her meaning Adam was standing and observing that whole conversation how many husbands today stand idle while their wives talk to snakes how many wives today stand idle while their husbands are being tormented by snakes be a snake killer not a snake talker God wants us to kill snakes in our marriages sometimes these snakes come in the form of generational curses where everyone that you know and you see in your family auntie uncle grandma grandpa for other mother all divorced and marriage is beautiful you're planting seeds you're removing weeds and then becomes the hissing snake well one of the spouses says I don't love you anymore I don't know why I don't have feelings for you anymore and I'm gonna divorce you I'm gonna leave you it's a snake because I said Sokolow what happened to his mama it exactly happened to his daddy at exactly what happened to his grandfather and that snake instead of saying oh you know what did I do you need to both join together begin to look for counseling prayer so that you can kill the snake of generational divorce in that family so that your kids don't have that snake anymore sometimes the snake shows up where one spouse starts dealing with the spirit of rejection and the husband gives all the love that he gives and the wife still feels rejected feels alone and it's not because the wife is just this bottomless vacuum a bottomless pit is never enough is that there are some hurts and there's some rejection that has happened that is invited that spirit and that spirit wants to bring distraction in the family and you gotta kill that snake sometimes the spirit of depression but the person just literally shuts down and we can come and say come on cheer up you know turn on some funny stuff but it's just when it's a spirit you don't just fix it with funny comedies the Bible says you got to put a garment of praise this set of spirit of heaviness that means you got to come against the spirit together so that not the person is defeated but the spirit is defeated in a person come on somebody hold on hold on sometimes it's a spirit of lust in a hissing snake maybe it attacks the husband whatever you UVU's you see that keiki struggle zookeeper with the spirit of lustin and you noticing and it's hurting you and so you may be venting it out and you say you don't love me I know I'm not beautiful for you why did you marry if you're looking at other women but you have to understand if it's a snake that's attacking him don't attack him attack with him the snake your spouse is not the snake it's a revelation there is a snake and it's not your spouse they will use the spouse but they are not the spouse to understand spiritual warfare in marriage you must first understand the real enemy is natural spouse even if they've done something that hurt you so deeply the real enemy is who works behind the scenes through your spouse when Peter came to Jesus and said Jesus don't go to the cross Jesus knew that it wasn't Peter who was speaking it was a snake behind Peter and he says get behind me devil excuse me Jesus did you yeah I thought you changed my name from cypress to to Peter now you're changing it from Peter to devil I'm confused what is my name Jesus Jesus wasn't talking to Peter he was talking to the snake that was behind the Peter Jesus affirmed Peter Jesus helped Peter but he was attacking that are you with me deliverance in marriage spiritual warfare in marriage is so so important I get this question asked more than probably I want to hear it it's one typically it's a wife that comes and ask this question she starts out saying my husband has demons I don't debate that okay great I don't know how she came to the conclusion but she's convinced he has demons and then she her second question is what do I do to get those demons out of him and a lot of times wives are convinced that the husband has demons I think if you're married you're convinced one of you has demons at one particular season of your life you recognize there's certain things that you're like man these things are not normal these are not natural you are crazy there's no explanation for what why you do that and not everything we accuse each other is actually demonic a lot of times it's personality disorders or personality differences personality differences and personality disorders sometimes it's flesh and sometimes it's just life but there are cases with their evil spirits operating behind the other person and they're operating to destroy the marriage by turning the couple against each other instead of churning against the enemy I had a situation that happened in our church and some of you who maybe was coming for a while in the church you might remember this testimonies on our YouTube where one young man he came from Texas and his wife he was convinced had a demon living in her and so he came here with his wife for prayer got so excited he says I have to tell you a story and I said what's a story he says my wife has a demon I was like exciting awesome you came for prayer line great he says I tried to cast that demon out and I said well that that's even better let's work for us he says I only provoked it he says I started to manifest in the shower he says and I he says I do like you guys do it I've recorded everything in the camera he said you want to see it I said no he's like it's right here I was like no no no no no I don't want to see the deliverance I don't want to see your wife I don't see nobody he says she just came out of shower he says explaining to me in details what the demon was saying and he's like and I was holding water and the phone and he said and I was recording for the purpose of testimony and I was like really what kind of glory is that gonna give to God naked woman running around and demons peeking through her Jesus - eventually she came for her prayer and she got delivered and she was barren for I think 13 years and after that she conceived then they came back with a child and she was completely free if you ever attempt to do deliverance on your spouse make sure they were close I want us to open the Bible and we will look at the story of that most of us are very familiar with the story of David and how David brought freedom to his brothers 1st samuel chapter 17 and verse 37 moreover David said the Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear he will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine and Saul said to David go and the Lord be with you somebody say Amen David shows up on a battle not to fight as a soldier David shows up as an errand boy for his dad to bring money to bring a food I'm sorry some cheese and some some other food to his brothers and to the general so David has no obligation to fight the Goliath Goliath opposes no direct threat to David Goliath is not David's problem it's the problem to his brothers because they're the soldiers it's Saul's problem not David's and I want you to see this David comes on the battlefield and Goliath over there who is the problem of David's brothers and solved but David gets involved to help his brothers overcome their battle the whole story of David killing Goliath is actually a story of a man coming in someone's battle and helping someone else win a battle that wasn't their own I genuinely believe when you arrive on the battlefield of marriage I know marriage is beautiful my marriage is also a battlefield for some people it's a battlefield because they fight each other but battlefield in meaning that the other person that you are marrying the other person that you have married many times will have their giants that they're fighting will have their issues that they are trying to resolve in their life and you're coming alongside as David helped him to beat that Goliath instead of beating them in marriage and I want to share with you this morning this afternoon and practically how do we go about helping someone else in our family win a spiritual battle without crippling them or diminishing or destroying them because a lot of times what happens is we don't beat the Goliath we beat each other Goliath triumphs and yes we can get divorced and we can restart that but for many cases it never fixes the real issue then our case I'm not gonna go into that's not a message today on divorce and remarriage and all of this stuff but for a lot of people the problem continues - next the district even says that the second marriages the divorce rate is 75 percent the third marriages is 80 percent the further you go that the divorce rate goes on why because many people are leaving battlefields without Goliath's head they're leaving with their spouses head it's their spouse like a crushed nothing enemy and we can restart and we can start clean move - and you see together get a new new person but if it's the same problem it's you find yourself in the same situation and we don't want that I always tell people if there's a light ball that went out in your house you don't replace the house you replace the light bulb are you with me I want you to write this down the first point is remember your liens before you attempt to help someone with their Giants before David could help his brothers with their Giants David had to be aware of the fact that he had had alliance in his own past the he by the grace of God has dealt with before you can help someone with their issues make sure that your own issues are being addressed and being faced one of the reasons we love to ignore our issues is we try to shift the blame for how we are reacting how we are acting on someone else and because our spouse is nearest to us we blame it on them and it goes like this the reason why I'm angry is because my spouse is crazy the reason why I am impatient or the reason why I do this is because they do that if they stop doing that my problem will be resolved so the problem is never you it's always them if they clean up their mess if they get rid of their demons and their issues you won't have nothing actually you don't even have any problems it's their problems they're creating problem for you amen hallelujah so I want you to come with me where's the water so this is just this is you this is you hold it together close to you it's called your issues now the interesting part with your issues is that they're there there you're not bothered by them and when you're younger and somebody comes and bumps in and you see the waters about to splash you distance yourself from those people if it's your brother and your sister you're like I want to talk to you no more why because you're provoking something you make me act crazy and so I won't talk to you if it's friends you just block them disconnect with them but then you get married and the person next to you keeps doing this five minutes I'm gonna get ready in five minutes twenty minutes you always say five minutes why is it taking you thirty minutes all the time your life spirit I rebuke the lying spirit in you in Jesus name now the crazy part is this when you got water all around you guess guess whose fault it is of course the person who bombed you but remember this I never put the water in the cup I only exposed the fact he has had water in his cup if he would have no water look at this nothing comes out your spouse provokes the issues you got in you that God wants you to deal with I remember I had that with my brother won't mention which brother there's only two it was not hard to guess by the way and so and at one particular brother when I was not married and he wants outdrew me crazy so crazy we had to translate for my parents and he didn't want to translate he just acted like he didn't speak English and so I had to step in and translate it for my parents and I was like man why couldn't you do it man you never do anything and I just got so mad I don't I go to the restroom I sit in the bathroom and I'm just like my blood is just boiling inside and I hear there's still small whisper the Holy Spirit says Vlad you're such an angry person I said don't my brother is just insensitive disrespectful rebellious child like he never respects mum and dad and I see here the Holy Spirit say you're such an angry person and I said if it wouldn't be for my brother there would be no ounce of anger ever coming out of me he says the hell has that ever occurred to you that maybe I use your brother to reveal to you that I see the anger in you every day you don't see it therefore you run deal it and I want to show it to you but you can't even receive what I'm showing you because you're blaming it on somebody who bumped into you how could you see any other way if I wouldn't let him bump into you you can't fix someone until you acknowledge the fact that the water they came out of the cup is not their fault now they have a fault they should be careful not to keep bumping but you should also empty your cup you should also deal with the issues that are inside of you come off somebody are you with me I want you to see what Jesus Christ said he said to people who want to go fix everybody I want you to see what he says in Matthew chapter 7 he says that before you go about he says why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye and do not consider plank in your own eye how can you say to your brother let me remove the speck out of your eye and look there's a plank in your own eye hypocrite first remove the plank out of your own eye and then you will see clearly how to remove the speck out of your brother's eye Jesus is saying in fact is if you keep blaming the other brother or your wife for the fact that the water came out Jesus says you know what understand why don't you first clean up the cup make it empty and then if your brother sister wife husband bumps into you he says we can deal with the bump because we don't have the water being splashed many of us we blame our reaction and the action of someone else in reality your reaction is the result of your character not whoever bumped into you in order to help someone with their spiritual problem we have to first be watchful that we are taking care and we are owning up to the issues that are surfacing in their heart because of their problem are you with me you know I did not know how impatient I was and how control if I was until my wife did not want to pray as I prayed she's supposed to be like me she's supposed to pray like me and I was trying to share with you last night I was trying to pull that flower instead of water that flower and she wasn't growing she was dying because of that and I thought that it was just a spiritual issue it was a spiritual issue and I wasn't helping are you with me thank you Eric so much it will draw up the water here appreciate your help when people came to stone a woman with an issue of blood I had a person who volunteered they wanted me to use them as a Goliath the UN asked a woman was caught in the act of adultery which is interesting too because in order to have an adultery you have to have a man the man never made it to the stoning I think the man was one of the Pharisees reported the woman and he himself picked up the stone besides the point people gathered together with stones and they decided to throw stones on this woman to help her of course you know to get her out of the society and everything and Jesus came alongside I want to show you something every time you want to help someone with their problem who you're married to your opinion your advice your insight could come out as this cold heart and actually painful ask job's friends they didn't want a hurt job when they shared their insight and what jobs problem was do you think they came around they just want to like her joke no they wanted to help job but somehow you know job was hurt by their advices why because anytime you give this before you get this even if what you're saying is correct it will hurt people because it will be projected in the tone of your voice in the tone of your attitude your words will be correct but they're cold they're hard and that's what Jesus said hey guys on first of all you're aiming at the wrong person this belongs in Goliath's head you're about to throw at the woman's head wrong head before you start throwing stones why don't you pick up a mirror and start remembering where you came from remember that when you say in God and throw a stone from heaven but had mercy on you before you go in fixing someone else and you know how they should get and how they should change why don't you pick a mirror and just look at the fact that this one is a magnifying glass okay why don't you make sure you pick up the right mirror why don't you look at the fact that and remember and how God delivered you from drugs how God delivered you from from their depression how God delivers you from the spirit of tradition how you wrestled how you struggled how other people showed you mercy or how people didn't show you mercy and how it really hurt and when you looked in a mirror then you look at your spouse you look at your family member who's currently struggle it's crazy how this hard true advice becomes graced with grace mercy and patience and you'd no longer condone their issue but you come around with the spirit of gentleness a spirit of grace spirit of patience spirit of long-suffering spirit of love and kindness you come around and you actually end up helping them instead of hurting them are you with me for those of you who are carrying a lot of stones and you became and crazy-amazing stone hitters I ask you today that you stopped throwing stones and you pick up a mirror and you take a good look at what God has done in your past because it will surface mercy in you grace in you you know one of the reasons why David was not judgmental and he didn't come trashing his brothers trashing soul is because they would remember if it wouldn't be for the grace of God he would have been a Lyons lunch if it wouldn't be for the grace of God he would have been embarrassed lunch it's only the God who helped him to overcome the bear and the lion it wasn't David slickness it's not David's own strength and power and so he's looking at the Goliath he says guys I know you're struggling I know what it's like I've been there and I'm going to help you and that help actually proved to be helpful to his brothers they were not eventually offended they rallied around him because a man who fought his lions becomes anointed to help others with their giants amen secondly you can't kill Goliath by throwing stones at other people you can't kill Goliath by throwing stones and other people I want you to see this what happened is that after David comes on the battle and David recognizes that I have a history I have walked with God I have seen the the work of God in my life I have seen the Holy Spirit move supernaturally I've seen God and now I see my brothers they're facing a battle and I can help them I can come alongside as somebody who has experienced not somebody who's arrogant because of his experience but humbled because of his experience and I can offer some help and David is very very wise about his brothers because when he told his brothers about the idea of killing a Goliath his brothers flipped out they right away start questioning his motives they said who do you think you are you have an evil motive you're here to see the battle I think David's reply was like what battle you guys a bunch of cowards battle the guys been screaming at you for forty days you're not fighting what is there to see that you guys a bunch of losers David never said that he could have did you know why David never accused his brothers of being cowards he was reserving his stones for the head of the Goliath never waste your stones on the people then you have none for the Goliath's head you know why sometimes we don't have any more anointing to fight the real enemy because we wasted on the wrong enemies we wasted on the enemies that the devil tempts us with because the devil wants to drain you of the anointing the God has given you for the Goliath's head so he sends you brother sister husband white kids neighbor a boss ex Christian or or a fellow Christian or people who are hypocrites in church people who provoke you and what you want to hear they want to get under your skin they pull your nurse and you want to reply you want to create that video on facebook to show how dangerous those people are how bad people can be how Christians are such a stumbling block to other people growing you really you're just raging but in reality it's actually a trap Satan wanna milk the anointing so when you face the Goliath you ain't got nothing left sometimes the best thing you can do is not to reply sometimes the best thing you can let them think they're right let them think they won the battle but you got the anointing so what did she won the argument but you lost the grace you lost the peace yeah you proved everybody right yeah you even backed up with the scriptures but it's really that fight was worth it because David asked the first question before the Battle of the glaad he says what will I get if I fight this man not every battle that presents itself to you you have to take it some battles have no spoil some battles have no reward he proved to you skunk every person in here can beat a skunk but before you go start a competition with a skunk you have to ask yourself a very important question is the smell worth the fight you can beat the skunk I don't doubt that there's anointing on your life to be skunks the question is do you want to live with the smell of skunks for the rest of your life no you don't and there are some people in our life certain situations honestly I'm just gonna say the way it is skunk situations there will set us up there and we feel great because we want to fight that cleared us to fight and we beat it we beat it and then we walk out like yeah I beat it oh you don't get a trophy you only smell like that thing God wants you only to fight battles that have spoil and that's not what your spouse that's not with our friends sometimes the best thing we can do is to walk away bring a resolution because a real enemy is Goliath not each other are you with me church are you with me Church hallelujah hallelujah thank you Jesus thank you lord so what do you do you attack the issue and affirm the person you attack the eye you affirm the identity you attack the issue do you want a can I borrow you for just a second you know somebody would see Giovanna about two years ago and see her living in a life of alternative lifestyle and a life the way she dressed the way she talked the kind of girlfriend she had and people would be very quick to throw stones I'll say look you lesbian look you're like that you're such a bad person I see the Holy Spirit doesn't see a lesbian he saw a woman of God and when a when about two years ago Giovanna came what the Holy Spirit did is he attacked the spirit Oh homosexuality get the spirit it's not just the same set constraction he attacked the spirit that was hurting her without hurting her we love Giovanna we didn't hate Giovanna not not a bit but when she was delivered when the evil was removed a beautiful person that was there all of those years is the beautiful person now that signs off every person's t-shirt who wears it as a volunteer and you look at her today and do ting worshipers we were just worshipping and singing about beautiful name it is and I kind of glanced at Giovanna and I remember at the race to deliver when she was going through her deliverance and all these pictures just flashed how three days God was delivering her she is still rolling down my eyes and I was an only Holy Spirit can see the identity and remove the issue work with Holy Spirit people are good they're created in the image of God and whatever evil that's tormenting them whatever evil that's hurting them we came together with them and the Holy Spirit come against it without destroying the person don't be like that crazy person who just throws rocks is the Holy Spirit you just differentiate where they go be careful who you affirm and who you attack we affirm the identity we attack the issue we speak life to the person and we come against the real enemy and the enemy and the person are knotted two things sometimes the enemy can temporarily possess or oppress or link himself to the person but they're not the same amen there's a bringing this message to an end I want you to see a third point there is only one name but many stones that can defeat Goliath I want you to see that when David came up against the Goliath he finally got the permission from Saul he walked away from his brothers he didn't want to create a fuss with them and then David finally comes up against the Goliath and a soul society before you get there David let me get you my coat because this coat many victories happen here it's not working for me today but it might work for you just try it and they would put it on so it's good for the pictures it's really nice and and honestly it makes me kingly it makes me like a soldier but a soul said um I don't know just doesn't doesn't feel right and there's always like what do you mean it doesn't feel right you can't win a battle if you don't wear my armor and David says well it's been 40 years your armor hasn't been really working for you it's great and not against it but it's not working for you why will it work for me let me put it aside and let me just go and we'll just go like that it didn't look like a soldier it wasn't conventional but the interesting part is God brought freedom and victory I want to shatter a Pentecostal charismatic and a Baptist way this is the only way God brings deliverance they have to be in a prayer line otherwise they'll never be free if they don't confess the roots in God will never set him free if you don't stand in your Authority and you always plead and beg God will never give you freedom and I understand what this is coming from it's good God gave me the grace but you know that the God we serve is actually bigger than Pentecostals and charismatics then the Baptist's then our brother Catholics and Presbyterians our God is bigger I meet people sometimes school for example they have a child that's not serving God and they fast and pray fast and pray and you see finally many many years later the child finds Christ I know her mother who comes to her church she didn't do that her child was asserting God you know what she did she prayed one prayer and she said God I give you my child and you are gonna find them you're gonna bring him and she said I felt peace and ever since then I only thank God that God is working on him and everything is fine and I continued praying for other people the other person met with them and said you can't do that you gotta play like I pray you got a fast like I fast but sometimes one person's armor is another person slingshot and God can use both never limit what God can do I believe in deliverance and deliverance has to happen the way we have it happen you come for screening you get prayed first you get confessing your sins you get led through prayer but sometimes people get delivered in their own car I know how God touched my brother it was at his own bed after an accident goddess visited him and something snapped for years we prayed for him I know one mother in the Bible she had a demon-possessed daughter I'm not sure if her daughter knew that she was demon-possessed but she came to Jesus and this mother she did not understand about the authority of the name of Jesus she came begging Jesus for mercy and Jesus didn't say you're not naming and claiming blabbing and grabbing it confessing and possessing it I'm not gonna give it to you he didn't say you don't know your authority you're not a child assisted at the table and receives I don't know nothing for you and she says Jesus I'm not your kid I know I'm not sitting over there with your children I don't know who I am in you I am not part of the Covenant I'm not one of those people who knows their authority Jesus I'm just the Gentile but I'm just broken and I know that you have the solution please if you don't let me take it from the table I'll lick it from the floor drop me a crumb and Jesus says for that statement your daughter is free and the daughter was instantly free there are people who take it from the table and were those people we teach people to know who they are in Christ but we meet people that revelation doesn't hit him never ashamed someone who doesn't walk in the level of your revelation we need to grow we need to encourage people but there are people who will come with that revelation and their revelation is this whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved and they say I call upon God I ask for his mercy for my children and their Baptist maybe there are speaking tongues and chase the demons all around town and breaking spiritual principalities an anointing buckets of oil over their house they're just simply kneel and before the bed of the child and say God bring my wayward child home and you see a few months later Bryn's the child home you like how's that I claimed blades I named it claim it blabbed it grabbed the Confessor possessed I took it all I did the whole nine yards I got a new anointing while the old anointing water the new oil the old oil anointed me I got the the virgin oil anointed to me and nothing was happening because you put too much hope in the armor and the stones and and the sword you have to take all of that off and understand one thing there's only one name that brings freedom but many different stones many different ways the Lord can bring that freedom church you know we're more a vibrant we love to confess it we like to rebuke the devil and I think what we're doing is super but maybe you're coming here today and you're not used to that maybe your way of approaching God and approaching freedom is more you don't dare to speak against the devil and that's okay let's work with what we have today let the Holy Spirit do the rest it is not even your declaration it is the power of the Holy Spirit that will move today to bring freedom and to bring deliverance in Jesus name
