Saying No To Passivity Leads to the Path of Freedom

Get rid of passivity and be led to freedom

When it comes to deliverance, saying no to passivity leads to the path of freedom. Passivity refers to inactivity, particularly inactivity of who you are, your thoughts, decisions, and free will power. The topic of passivity is so important during these times for several reasons: one of them is that passivity is providing an invitation to evil spirits and as a result, there are people suffering. People all over the world are experiencing the spiritual battles that fallen angels and demons are igniting.

Christians Influenced to Be Passive

The church system promotes that Christians should be passive in order to be blessed by God. Their teachings lead to heavy influences. This causes people to let go of their common sense thinking. Christian religious followers who believe in false doctrines, rely on a false god to make decisions for them. In addition, when the dark forces of evil spirits pretend to be of God, a professing Christian is at risk of accepting any messages that imposter sends to them.

When I was an avid churchgoer I thought I needed God to make basic, common sense decisions for me. I depended on God to decide almost everything for me. What words I should say, what choices I should make, what housing I should live in, and so on. The passivity continued spiritually when I would assume that all supernatural type experiences were from God. As a result, I without hesitation, listened to the messages. That turned out to be a disaster because those messages were not from God but from evil spirits pretending to be God.

Passivity Leads To Attacks By The Enemy

The evil spirits weapon of choice used against me were futuristic dreams, visions and hearing of voices. This caused a lot of damage to a time in my life that I had to recover from by the grace of God’s help.

As I continued in a church system that never provided me the spiritual truth, depth, or meat I was looking for, I became lost in who I was. It took the grace of God and the help of the Holy Spirit to show me that I had a false salvation experience when I followed the alter call.

I realized that I was worshipping the fake Jesus. How did God reveal this to me? He led me to find Pastor Pam Sheppard, who had the knowledge to teach me that because I had been obeying a religious and witchcraft spirit, it had gained such access to my soul, and I provided them with fuel to continue to torment me. With her help, I learned about the tricks and deception that evil spirits were spreading in the church system and all over the world. Others were not able to teach me and help me like she did.

Darkness in The Church System

I realized that tricks of evil spirits where hidden within the church system and they even attempted to influence my family members. Fallen angels and demons can use people that you know to influence you. If allowed, they can speak through to people at times. They often use those who are deceived about the manipulation that Satan is causing in the institutional church system.

Some religious believers professing to be Christian can unknowingly spread Satan’s agenda. As a result, it leads to spoken words that appear to be Godly, or prophetic but are false, psychic predictions. The devil spreads lies and tries to cause ruin in their targets life. The person who accepts these words without testing these words are an example of that individual being passive.

Unbeknownst to many, there is an enormous population that are worshipping a religious evil spirit. When this happens the enemy strikes and can cause spiritual manifestations. Manifestations like hearing voices, tormenting visions, spirit rape, demonic nightmares and even physical torment are just some examples.

The Invitation

Passivity invites evil spirits inside a person’s soul when they go into an altered state. Being in an altered state is a very specific form and doorway to passivity. In the religious church system, certain acts induce an altered state and a passive mind, and thus usher in the worship of a religious evil spirit. Holy dancing, being slain in the spirit are a few examples that happen in the institutional church system.

Those who engage in meditation, yoga, Buddhist, and Hindu practices may have heard about chakras. People are trying to open their chakras and channel Kundalini energy. This claims to enlighten the person. These acts are one of the popular forms of spiritual passivity happening in many parts of the world. People are also doing this in the United States, and it can be very dangerous! For more information about this topic, click here for this article. One of the big takeaways about the subject matter of passivity is that in order for demons to get into your soul, being in an altered state gives demons that doorway access.

Passivity can occur in all walks of life because the world has a tendency to say in various ways, that their ways are the best. In addition, there is a frequent push to promote that your free will common sense needs to be tossed aside. When one gets involved in the religious church system, the risk of being passive, becomes 10 fold.

Resist Passivity

When I continued counseling with Pastor Pam, I strengthened up my will power to be able to fight for myself in a healthy way. It was assertion that she helped me build up. Saying no to passivity leads to the path of freedom and I used my free will to resist the devil and all his tactics. Building up my free will led me down the road to recovery. I received freedom from the bombarding words of evil spirits speaking to me continuously.

When a psychic approached me after I had been in counseling with Pastor Pam, I ignored the psychics advances to try to give me a a psychic reading because I knew that by stopping to listen to that woman say words that supposedly predicted my future, it was an attempt of setting me up by witchcraft evil spirits. They attempted to manipulate me by trying to get me to listen to their words for a long time, and cause danger. See scriptures on the dangers of fortune tellers and psychics ( Deuteronomy 18:9-12; Leviticus 19-31; 1 Chronicles 10:13-14: Isaiah 8:19, 2 Chronicles 33:6)

I shed that religious expectation that I needed to be passive at all times. Importantly I got rid of that religious thinking that I had to accept every religious prediction, religious prayer, and “special message.” That sort of teaching promotes one to accept every word of faith doctrine, laying of hands, “thus sayeth the Lord” message. When your safety is in jeopardy, it’s important to think about your safety and be careful not to agree to what is malicious.

Breaking Free From Passivity

Your talents and personality that make you different than others, become preserved when you continue to break free from passivity. One must be aware to the wiles of the enemy in all systems, including the institutional church system, so that you do not fall prey to demonic and fallen angel spirits that try to ensnare you by getting you to worship them.

My pastor, Pam Sheppard, continued to mentor me and my passivity lessened. The religious have tried to influence me. Some tried to put strange ideas in my head that did not originate from me. When this happened, I would stand my ground. I encountered pushy people at work, and some random strangers. It started to become easy to say “No that is not what I believe, No this is not what I want.” The devil has tried it’s different methods to use people to try to influence me in ways that would be harmful to my well being, however, saying no to passivity leads to the path of freedom. Not being passive was the key to my strength in this arena

The Importance of Your Will Power

After I left the institutional church system, tormenting religious evil spirits started to lessen. Evil spirits will try to send messages to you, so the will power must be utilized at all times. The goal is for your mind to resist and block away any of these messages and prevent you from being under demonic control. Your will power is essential to getting you down the road to recovery. It is one of the biggest components to deliverance.

Evil spirits will take advantage of those who are both passive in the natural and spiritually passive. Getting rid of passivity is the armor that you will need to break free from the bondage of captivity by evil spirits. Learning to stop being passive can take time and you may likely need help with this. You can receive help from PSM. We offer coaching, counseling and mentorship to help you with any spiritual battles you may be experiencing. You can also get the help that you need by reading books by Pastor Pam. In particular the book: The Church of the End time Zombies, is a great resource for you when it comes to learning about passivity and getting led down to the path of freedom.ed

Stories of Hope and Faith – “God Saves Online”

A sunrise behind  the text "2021" representing a brand new year of hope and beginnings. The 1 is replaced by a cross. Here, it's symbolic for Christ's Resurrection becoming the upmost important for maintaining a peace of mind during this uncertain timeframe.
“In a dark but difficult time, let these stories of hope and faith give you something to rejoice about what God is doing in the world.” -Pastor Pam Sheppard

As 2020 draws to a close, it leaves behind a trail of destruction in its wake. Everyone was left helpless as they watched the world plunge into a state of perpetual despair: Death after death; disaster after disaster; and calamity after calamity. Amid the Coronavirus, a plague that has brought over 2.05 million people to their graves, lively churches have shut their doors. Their inner walls a scene of utter emptiness and desolation. Stemming from the pandemic, many Christians remain in despair from an inability to worship God. They may fear for their mental wellbeing, they may fear for their salvation. Nevertheless, the book “God Saves Online” is proof that the Lord isn’t restricted to a building and truly He is an omniscient, perfect God. Beloved, if you’re in need of reassurance during one of the darkest periods of the modern era, let this gem of faith ease your mind.

Most Christians attempt to walk a road of painful stones under their feet to prove themselves more justly saved than their non-religious counterparts. In an attempt to please God, they block themselves from loving the sin, yet they hinder themselves from loving the sinner. In doing so, they cast judgement upon those they deem fit. Such religious behavior leads to a life of spiritual self-harm, attempting to reach a pinnacle of perfection that cannot be made by man’s efforts alone.

Consequently, we need to experience a full spiritual rebirth, transforming our very essence into the ability to walk in His will. Otherwise, we may feel that we are never good enough for God’s standards. We live our lives as though in an infinite loop of repentance and sinning: No improvement of our spiritual condition in sight. Worse, we may internalize our own frustrations and lash out at other people: Homosexuals, false converts, mentally ill, the occultists, and those hearing voices or other supernatural experiences are among those whom God shall save. 

 Yet God has a plan for each one of His Elect. No matter if they were the greatest sinner or the most virtuous saint, He endowed each individual an unmovable, special time stamp to become born again. He has selected these pivotal times before He laid the very foundations of the Earth. The time when a person is called by the voice of God to be His child. Their old, sinful selves are fully rinsed clean to walk the straight and narrow path with grace and ease.

“God Saves Online” brings promising testimonies of hope to all walks of life. Even those who some may consider the most wretched of souls. The Lord has a special plan for reaching each one of His Elect. Pam Sheppard Ministries has witnessed a recent rainfall of individuals rinsed clean of their former nature and translated into the kingdom of God. A unique commonality amongst these testimonies are these people’s previous connections to witchcraft, the occult, and idolatry.

The Holy Spirit saves a former New Agist, gender-confused man after he heard the powerful story of the Gospel, emphasizing Christ’s Resurrection. His rebirth experience didn’t take place in the church but at his own home—the Holy Spirit used YouTube videos to save his spirit for eternity! Another instance includes a woman, who was born again live on a Zoom broadcast. The features of her face changed in front of Pastor Pam’s very eyes after she heard the Gospel, reaching a deep place of godly sorrow: Her past as an ancestral worshiper, dabbling in reiki, and yoga all wiped away by the wind of the Holy Ghost. The words, “I accept Jesus” never even left her lips. God found her! Opening chakras, singing bowls, receiving a voodoo doll—None of these events disqualifies nor prevents His Elect from hearing the sound of His call.

Read for yourself the book’s chapters written by 5 newly found sheep, “for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Luke 6:45). Be edified in your faith, trusting that God is seeking lost members of His flock, no matter how entrenched into the world they are.

If you ever think God has abandoned you, or you’re beyond saving—the Lord is the God of possibilities. Right now, He’s ushering people into His Kingdom online in a 21st century way, beyond the circumstances of the pandemic or anything else thrown in our midst. Don’t forget who the universe’s maker is! He is the ultimate decider of one’s eternal destiny. No one else has that right to determine who is too sinful and who is not to be born again. All that is required of a non-born-again member of the Elect is to wait for God’s timing: No other work is necessary to be graced with salvation. 

If you’re inquiring to join our virtual ministry, perhaps you may consider our Facebook group, “Let My People Go” linked here. It is constantly updated with day-to-day posts, including helpful videos providing essential information for those needing spiritual guidance. There is also a constant crew of ministry members willing to give additional support and encouragement for people requiring attention. You also can call Pastor Pam at 888-818-1117 for a private, phone session if you’d prefer one-on-one deliverance counseling. Compassionately, God has ways of reaching his Elect far beyond that of a church building. He continues to console His church through uncertainties and perils.

Perfect Love in Christ Conquers Fear

A person successfully conquers a mountain of  fear, rejection, evil, and temptation through love: It alludes to how the love of Christ helps overcome all obstacles and turmoil of the world.
“Love takes no pleasure in evil, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things” (1 Corinthians 13:6).

While I’m not born-again, here is a testimony of how I came across Pam Sheppard Ministries and how I learned love and trust in the Lord conquers fear.

My mother and I were extremely into the occult. We read the books of Edgar Cayse, bought healing stones, visited psychic fairs at his headquarters, etc. I myself was particularly involved in the New Age Movement through receiving energy healing (reiki) through videos on the Internet to alleviate severe Eczema. Usually, I had a set number of channels that I would receive the reiki from: There was about 3-4 of them that I preferred. However, I sought a new user that could offer stronger ‘benefits.’ The subsequent Youtuber I found claimed that he could open all 72 chakras of the body through various spirits and reiki symbols, which he would send to those viewing his videos. He also had an assistant with him that would amplify the effects.

Now moving back slightly earlier in the week, my mother had just recently started reading the Bible and gotten increasing religious. She quoted the verse Deuteronomy 18:10-12 and wished for me to refrain from New Age practices like she had, “Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, practices divination or conjury, interprets omens, practices sorcery, casts spells, consults a medium or familiar spirit, or inquires of the dead. For whoever does these things is detestable to the LORD.” Personally, I felt like the occult had more meat, love, and understanding than any Christian church that I had ever seen. So, I was resistant.

Needless to say, after watching the Youtuber, I felt increasingly ‘off’ for the next 1-2 days. The symptoms were like a spiritual cold: I felt inexplicably weak, drained, and off-center. It was when I had to admit, my mother was probably right: The New Age was no good after all. Therefore, I threw out all my New Age stuff and got ready to start a new leaf as a dedicated, religious Christian. (At that point, I thought ‘religious’ was potentially a good word. I’ve come a long way since then.)

A major problem was my mother had no idea about how repentance worked. She claims at each night, we should ask God to forgive us and cleanse us of our sins. We must make it our resolve to be clean in the sight of the Lord and pray constantly for the spiritual wellbeing of ourselves and our loved ones. The latter is understandable. Although, it also echoed the behavior of Job, whose fear and lack of trust in the Lord resulted in him becoming self-righteous, fearful, and most of all RELIGIOUS. Everything seemed to be like more of a perfectionistic performance where no one garnered any enjoyment, let alone bear any fruit.

I was choking on all the sins that I would do throughout the day. I was counting them up like ants. Not to mention, I was struggling with changing my mindset from the laxity of the occult to the rigidness of religiosity. It seemed like every thought seemed like the wrong one. Then, I heard a doctrine where the Lord hears your thoughts and uses them to place judgment upon you from a pastor, who also joked about people sent to Hell if they didn’t accept Jesus. That’s when I got really torn-up on the inside: I felt incredibly guilty for my involvement in the occult and most of all, I was afraid. Terrified of myself and everyone around me. Scared to death of my mistakes and other people’s.

That is when blasphemous thoughts ramped up in my mind. All day. Every day. Every hour. Things got so bad between the endless onslaught of thoughts against Christ and worshiping the Devil. I was throwing up after nearly every meal from anxiety of where my salvation stood. I lost twelve pounds. A doctor mentioned that my blood pressure was low, likely from the lack of food.

I started attending church to curb my ceaseless torment from what I felt was a spiritual attack from the Enemy for leaving the occult. From what I understood, the Enemy couldn’t attack you in church. Yet, I was. It didn’t make sense to me. The deeper I was falling into religion, the deeper I was falling into insanity.

It was in this severe condition that I found Pam Sheppard Ministries through an article that I found on opening chakras and torment. After some deliberation, I took the leap to question everything I have ever known and embark on a spiritual journey (which I still continue today.)

Making that comment asking for Pastor Pam’s help was the best decision that I’ve ever made in my life.

From Pastor Pam, I learned that I wasn’t born again. It wasn’t my job to make myself repent to Christ. I had to wait on the Holy Spirit to rebirth my spirit on the Lord’s time. One bad thought wasn’t condemning than any other thought that I’ve had. I also learned God wasn’t looking for perfection. He often uses mistakes for spiritual growth and development. If people could reach perfection like religious people (myself at one time) tend to, then why did God need to die and be resurrected at the cross to cleanse His Elect’s sins?

Most importantly, my torment was virtually defeated by this simple lesson:

Trust in the Lord. He knows you better than you know you. If there is no defeat, there is no getting saved. He /loves/ you.

You got to understand, Pastor Pam saved my life with her love, guidance, and experience. She’s always patient and kind, telling the truth in love. I owe the bright, young woman that I am today to her. She gave me the affirmation which said, ‘In Christ, there is nothing to fear, and HE says perfect love casts out fear.’

It’s an honor to be a part of Pastor Pam’s ministry and serve under its namesake. I know without the Lord guiding me here, I might not be walking the planet nor find unfathomable trust in Him for my salvation.

Here is the link to Pastor Pam’s article that overhauled everything that I’ve ever known about religion and the occult: It started the journey that led me here.

Prayer, Sermon and Song

“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness” (Matthew 7:21-23).

A sermon is crucial for tying a service together. It provides the primary source material for the topic at hand. In the embedded video above, Matthew 72:21-23 are essential verses to having those with a religious background understand that ‘accepting Jesus’ will not guarantee their salvation nor forthcoming in the name of the ‘true’ Jesus in the first place. The sermon is coupled with Pastor Pam’s commentary of personal experience, providing the head to a spear in the Zoom video fittingly titled, “Does Jesus Know You?”

Without listening to the sermon above, the rest of the recorded Zoom discussion will not hold as much merit to a listener, who hasn’t heard of Pam Sheppard Ministries nor its teachings offered. The subsequent discussion would be like a stick without the flint or metal enabling it to become a spear, a weapon of choice during a time of monumental spiritual warfare between the Lord’s truth and the lies of the Devil.

In this case, two examples of churchgoing women becoming demonized on the payroll out of institutional church should make a person’s ears wide to hear. If a top-tithing, tongue-speaking churchgoer rises out of her wheelchair, under the control of evil spirits, then those individuals practicing these activities should also pay particular attention. Just recently, someone became demonized decades simply by hearing a prophecy given to them on church-grounds. Put these two events with the context of Matthew 72:21—23, it should make a person stop to think about their current list of experiences in the church-system.

The latter example happened only within the previous week, and there are other people with similar testimonies of becoming tormented after attending church-services too. With such in mind, it becomes increasingly plausible Jesus ‘doesn’t know’ the typical churchgoer, who are adhering to daily religious activity modeled by today’s churches. Otherwise, the aforementioned cases of the demonized Christians would not exist according to the traditional beliefs of popular denominations. 

Pastor Pam’s sermons are similar to essay introductions everything develops and flows. The discussion chronicled throughout the rest of the recording session would not hold the same gravity without her cultivated, background knowledge.  They are like spears slicing through the thick deception for those currently at odds with the Institutional church. (So, I’d very much hope you’d pay close attention throughout subsequent Zoom sessions for them.)

Anyone inquiring about the interpretation of Matthew 7:21-23, should look no further than the embedded YouTube video above or here via YouTube. Prepare for a spiritually nourishing service that demonstrates the proper composition of a church service: a soul-riveting prayer; an insightful, perceptive sermon; and a riveting song to soothe the spirit during the Corona epidemic. The goal is to set God’s people free from the rampant, spiritual darkness occurring in the church age of Laodicea.

Take heed to the words of Pastor Pam, who has liberated numerous individuals from religious bondage and supernatural torment in over thirty-five years of experience. The folks at church may know you, but find out why that doesn’t signify that Jesus does. The price of that knowledge won’t require paying a tithe, consuming communion, or becoming slain-in-the-spirit; but only requires time to listen. Occasionally, spending time with the Lord requires faith to let go of the noisy spiritual clutter to see things clearly for their true nature. The simplistic, sincere elements found in the worship services of early believers are a far cry from the churches still attempting to remain open today. Yet, the recorded service above takes Christian service back to its roots with a prayer, sermon, and song all based on a word to hear: “Let my people go!”

How to Pray: Exposing Misconceptions

Most people don’t realize there is lack of knowledge when it comes to how to pray. Many assume that we need to tell God how he must handle our lives and the lives of others. This often leads to controlling, witchcraft like prayers that only do more harm than good. The underlying problem, first of all, that is causing people to have problems on knowing how to pray according to God’s accord, is that there are countless, untold masses that have had false conversions.

Before, establishing faithful prayer with God, those who have had a false conversion must realize they had one, renounce it, and overturn it.

The false conversion was started by a preacher named Charles Finney who in the 1830’s, introduced the I accept Jesus practice. Before the persuasion to “accept Jesus” took over, the gospel of Jesus was focused on and there was knowledge that salvation is given to us by God not of ourselves.

A historic document was prepared in 1689 called the Second London Baptist Confession, and was written by Particular Baptists, who held to a Calvinistic Soteriology in England to give a formal expression of their Christian faith from a Baptist perspective. This confession, like the Westminster Confession of Faith (1646) and the Savoy Declaration (1658), was written by Puritans who were concerned that their particular church organisation reflect what they perceived to be Biblical teaching. Because it was adopted by the Philadelphia Association of Baptist Churches in the 18th century, it is also known as the Philadelphia Confession of Faith. The confession was first published in London in 1677 under the title “A confession of Faith put forth by the Elders and Brethren of many Congregations of Christians, Baptized upon Profession of their Faith in London and the Country. 

This document highlights man, by his fall into a state of sin, has completely lost all ability of will to perform any of the spiritual good which accompanies salvation. In short, the document shows that man is not reliable enough to choose God because his free will is too corrupt. So clearly, the Holy Spirit was in the church, prior to Charles Finney and the sinner’s prayer treachery. 

So when you accept Jesus, what is happening is many are worshiping a fallen angel religious evil spirit, pretending to be Jesus and that fallen angel is interepting their prayers. This leads people to be led astray when it comes to how to pray. The devil is confusing them, keeping them in darkness, and preventing them from praying with faith in God instead of fear. There is also the tendency to pray according to what one wants to satisfy their own flesh, wants, and needs, oftentimes these needs are entirely selfish and is not in line with what God has in store for them.

Want to pray to God in a way where you are able to be led in truth and down his path? When you pray, ask the Lord to expose the darkness surrounding you. You may be surprised what God reveals to you, as many who have done this have been shown just how much darkness and deception Satan has kept them in bondage to. He may also reveal what you are doing to repeatedly keep yourself in the dark and allow yourself to be easy prey to the devils schemes and deception.

Whether born again or not, you can learn a lot about God when you pray, yet praying according to God’s will is important. For the born again Christian, prayer is a special way to communicate with God and continue to build in your understanding of his ways so that you may better serve him but it is crucial to find out if you mistakenly are worshiping the fake Jesus.

During salvation, God comes to you, he calls you in his due time, he will show you your true wicked ways, when he is ready, and the Holy Spirit will lead you to repent. The key thing to understand is that God and the Holy Spirit shows this to you. Yes mans free will is granted and one of the multitudes of gifts from God, but when it comes to the grace of salvation from the life, death, and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, this gift is a supernatural experience, a gift entirely given by God; it is not of our own doing but God and the Holy Spirit leads us to salvation. He gives us the faith to believe in the death and ressurection of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Such confusion about how to pray often has to do with folks underestimating God’s wisdom and fear often intertwines among this thinking. We then often think we must tell God what he must do for us in order to fix everything, leading us down the wrong path when it comes to how to pray. Often times when trouble arises in life, fear sets in, all common sense goes out the window, and leads to frantic prayers that may draw more fear, misunderstanding to your life.

Prayer IS a valuable form of communication with God, but it is essential to be conscious of whether we are going about it the wrong way. So let us consider wisdom when we come to terms of whether we even need to pray or not.

Many fail to understand that part of wisdom is being careful, observant, and knowing when to speak and when to listen (Proverbs 29: 3-11). An example that you may have already received God’s wisdom, would be, God revealing to you that you have put yourself under bondage to the devil by doing witchcraft, occult practices ( yoga, visiting psychic mediums, meditation, reading tarot cards, ) and yet still professing to be a Chriatian, as a result this is the reason you are battling with demons.

For help on how to pray, focus on exposure of what is hidden and what is God’s will, what does he intend for you. If you realize you where worshipping the fake Jesus and still struggling with ritualistic prayer, try letting go of expectating your every need and desire to be granted to you. Recognize that God does not grant us our every wish. Sometimes what we think is best for us, God may not think the same. Take hold of your God given common sense as your guide when you are making decisions, even difficult ones; when they are difficult remove your emotional hang ups and try to decide with logic, reasoning, and rational thought: and when you do this you may find that you may not need to pray. Allow yourself to be rid of a false conversion and worshipping the fake Jesus, so that one day God will birth you in his due time to be a new creature in Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Then, enjoy prayer with an established faith and foundation with God.

Fear of Failure

Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. Most often, the WISEST one in the room is the one who makes the MOST mistakes.

I used to have a fear of failure. It stifled me. And it caused a form of bondage that I did not like. I felt like I was being suffocated. I could tell that my growth and progress was being hindered.

Pastor Pam has helped me SO MUCH in this area. Her example of embracing her mistakes and not being phased by them, but rather seeing the lesson in them has helped me to understand the importance of humility, as well as how mistakes can help us learn and grow. I used to be so indecisive because I was worried about the outcome. I am no longer ruled by my anxiety of what may or may not happen. Life goes on. Ya live and ya learn.

God is so amazingly patient with us. As mistakes happen, I believe that he watches us, and allows us to keep falling, so that we can figure out our mistakes, fix them, and apply what we have learned to the next similar situation.

Humility is KEY here. You have to allow yourself to fall, so that you can see where you messed up, and examine yourself to see how you handle certain situations, and what you can do better next time. The more mistakes you make, the WISER you become.

Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you.

“The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.” (Proverbs 4:6-7)

God does not expect us to look perfect before him. BE YOU! Allow yourself to mess up. Even our best is like filthy rags to God, anyway. You don’t have the power to cleanse yourself. Only God can do that. Perfectionism is from the enemy because it tricks you into thinking that you can’t make a mistake. And then it makes you feel like you have to do religious works in order to appear righteous, Holy, and perfect.

Don’t let the enemy keep you in bondage just because you made a mistake. Allow yourself to GROW!

Is Salvation Dependent On Natural Faith Or Divine Faith?

It is important to understand that there are two kinds of faith: natural and divine or God’s own  faith, given to human beings. This article will explore the difference between the two kinds of faith. So the question becomes…is salvation dependent on natural faith or divine faith?

Consider what Pastor Pam wrote about faith:

 

Natural Faith Is Inherent in Us

The bible suggests that faith is evidence of what you actually believe. If it is snowing out real hard, and you stand at a bus stop waiting for the bus to come, that is natural faith. Your standing there is evidence of your faith in the bus company. This kind of natural faith is based on the fact that you have some experience with the bus company that supports the fact that snow does not stop them. If you did not know that, then standing there for hours without any sort of proof would be blind, irrational faith.

We go to bed at night, expecting to wake up in the morning by natural faith. We go to work, expecting a paycheck because we have a history with working first and receiving a paycheck later. The fact that we work without pay for two weeks or more is the evidence of our faith in our employer’s ability and inclination to pay us AFTER the fact.

When we get born again, we are given divine faith to believe on the bodily resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. No one can believe in the resurrection on human faith or natural based faith because we have no experience in the natural with anyone dying, coming back to life, never to die again. Certainly, we read about this in the bible but we have not experienced it ourselves. So God has to give us the faith to believe it.

To walk in the spirit, we do so on divine faith, given to us in a measure by the Holy Spirit. The more experiences and dealings with God we have, the stronger our faith becomes because it is built on trust.

Divine Faith

Part of trust is understanding that the Holy Spirit must be the one to bring to into reality a supernatural faith of substance that pleases God. Our own human based faith is simply deficient. Unfortunately, this current church system has wrongly taught that salvation is man’s choice to choose God. Nothing can be further from the truth, we have no ability to choose nor accept Jesus. Instead, we must wait on the divine calling of the Holy Spirit. It is the sole job of the Holy Spirit to cause the Elect to believe in the bodily resurrection. We can not truly walk in the spirit until the Holy Spirit gives a believer divine faith that is sufficient in the Eyes of God.

Our natural faith on its own can not reconcile or regenerate a dead spirit. A false conversion is spiritual conversion built on a religious lie. If this describes your current spiritual walk, there is very good news. Our mission is to Help you get on the right track and on to the narrow path of salvation. As you await salvation, Truth can help boost up your natural faith in order to have the patience to wait on the Holy Spirit’s timing and prompting to real salvation.

I was once like you, I believed so many religious lies. However, it is was my torment that caused me to understand that something was wrong with my spiritual walk. In fact, this ministry helped me get passed my torment and I became born again not by my doing, but by the Power of the Holy Spirit. If you feel that God is showing you that “something just ain’t right”. I highly suggest that you examine your salvation. This ministry offers a  course in examining your salvation where you receive 2 ebooks plus a video course. If you are interested in taking this course, click here.

A Religious Fool: Passivity of Judgment and Reason

Passivity of Judgment and Reason

Passivity of judgment /reason defines Religious Fools

 

Religious fools  manifest passivity of judgment/reason and therefore need their minds renewed so as to understand that  the first step to truth is “to doubt.” The problem is how faithful Christians define “doubting.” Religious Christians oppose doubting because they  think that doubting is like wavering.  The bible says that wavering is being tossed to and fro, filled with confusion. So wavering is perceived as a lack of faith. No one wants to waver. 

 Yet doubting on the other hand is what is necessary to reach the truth. Actually the first step to try the spirits to see if they be of God is stand still and maintain a neutral position which is a form of doubting.   It is our capacity to doubt that makes us free because the first doubt is a step closer to the truth, and as the Lord said, its the truth that MAKES us free.  

When I was an ordained minister within the institutional church for 25 years,  I did not doubt–EVER!. In fact,  I was very sure of things that were later proven to be wrong.  For example, I never doubted slain in the spirit. Never questioned it not one time in a decade.   Without doubt, we tend to make assumptions. So I assumed that slain in the spirit was a good thing from God so I lusted after it.  Once I got the power to cause members to fall on their backs when I touched their foreheads or waved my hand at them, shortly after,  doubt set in.  

Doubt usually  begins with a question. So my first question was: “Why is it that the people who are constantly slain in the spirit around me cannot stand solid in Christ? “This  was my first bit of doubting.  In short, I ASKED MYSELF AN IMPORTANT QUESTION. My doubt erupted about the slain in the spirit practice because church members that I pastored   were constantly falling in their spiritual walk.  

So this particular situation caused me to begin to doubt the slain in the spirit practice.  Also “War on the Saints” assisted me in  doubting.  IT WAS A GOOD THING.  Here is what this great woman of God who has influenced Christian ministry in 3 centuries wrote about called “passivity of judgment  and reason”: 

Passivity of judgment and reason, which means that the man in this condition has closed the mind to all arguments, and statements upon which he has come to settled conclusions, and all effort to give him further truth and light is regarded as interference, and the person attempting it as ignorant, or intrusive. The believer in this stage of passivity lapses into a state of evil positiveness, and infallibility; from which nothing can release the “judgment,” but the rude shock of seeing that he has been deceived, and possessed by evil spirits. To undermine the deception of a believer in this condition, almost means the re-laying of the very foundations of his spiritual life. Hence the few–called “fanatics” and “cranks” by the world–who have been saved out of this degree of the deception of the enemy. (From “War on the Saints.)

This particular post began with a phone call.   A woman is doubting her salvation after watching some of my videos. I told her that chances are, if she is doubting her salvation, it did not happen. Why?  Because assurance is a major component of a bonafide  born again experience.  So,she is on the track to truth because she is defying her own passivity of judgment and reason.  I asked yet another question. clearly she is not born again because when I asked her to define the resurrection, she gave the wrong answer.

It’s better to doubt than  to be a blind fool.  What say YOU? 

 

Paul’s time was chosen for him, not by him.

Someone once wrote, “In this day and age, MOST professing Christians are too proud and stubborn to consider the fact that the religious teaching they have grown to love Are All a Lie…and have NO IDEA about the darkness that has taken over the organized church.”

The enemy has long ago entered the visible church and propagated the lie that if a Christian has faith, speaks positively, and gives donations to religious causes, that financial blessings, “health and wealth, “ is assured as the will of God and that material wealth would even increase.  Many Christians continue to chase this carrot while the enemy laughs.  This is actually very simplistic and childish thinking.

And that isn’t the only or worst of false doctrines that have taken over the visible church.  The single most damaging practice that has even spread throughout the world is, “praying to accept Jesus and asking Him into one’s heart.”  This is otherwise known as the, “sinner’s prayer. ”Yes, that’s right.  Please take a moment to consider, (throughout this article, all references to, “Jesus,” refers only to Jesus Christ who was born in Nazareth .”  If that seems odd, it will be explained in a future article.),  Jesus is actually, now, in His physical body, sitting at the right hand of the Father.  He cannot enter any one’s heart.  And the critical, “work,” of salvation is in no one’s hands but God Himself who draws one to their salvation.

 On the contrary,  the following scriptures appear to dictate that He already knows who will be His.  And at any time during one’s lifetime, even to the last breath, one would have their time of visitation by the Holy Spirit.  I site the following verses: Romans 8:29–30; Ephesians 1:5, 11; Colossians 3:12; 1 Thessalonians 1:4; and 2 Timothy 2:10.

Also know that the most important point in the understanding of the salvation experience is in understanding that without the physical, bodily resurrection of Jesus into immortality—there is no salvation. One must know  and understand that it isn’t just His suffering on the cross that is critical, but His being raised up into immortality in His actual physical body.  Remember, upon His return to His disciples, He spoke with them, ate with them, and Thomas was even able to physically touch Him to enhance his belief that this was truly Jesus.  To further advance the monumental occasion of His resurrection was the fact that at that time, as we now read in Matt. 27:51-53:

…“Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.”      As Paul warned the Corinthians, if one has a wrong belief, or does not believe in His resurrection or the resurrection of the dead, then there is no salvation. As Paul said in 1 Cor. 15:17,  And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.

Also, consider that anything monumental that had ever been done for the ultimate benefit of man was done by God Himself. Refer to His leading Israel out of Egypt;  His crafting His covenant with Abraham—remember, He gave Abraham instructions, but then put him to sleep while He cut the covenant (Gen. 15:9-18); and for us, salvation in Christ Jesus of Nazareth through the visitation of the Holy Spirit who convicts us of sin and gives us the faith to believe in the physical resurrection of Jesus Christ.

He, “calls,” us by the Holy Spirit, who chooses the time of His visitation and convicts us to repentance in much sorrow for who we ourselves are by our sin-nature that put Jesus on the cross.  Again, He, “convinces,” us that we are sinners deserving of punishment but soon afterwards also brings our spirit to life with absolute joy in Him giving us the necessary faith to believe in His bodily resurrection.

This great work is done by Him, not us.  We cannot convict ourselves nearly to the extent that the Holy Spirit does. We cannot produce our own faith as the Holy Spirit gives.  This is totally His work.  Not ours. Anything critical to man He does Himself so that—if you will—man would not mess it up.

My next post will further illustrate this point with my own testimony. But here now, please know that my own Pastor was an atheist from the word, “go.” And did not attend any house of institutional religion but one time in 33 years.  For as long as she could remember she was an atheist until the Holy Spirit came upon her, quite out of the blue and convicted her of her sin-nature, gave her the faith to believe in Jesus’ suffering and bodily resurrection, and she became born again.  What I didn’t say was that at the time she was deep into the occult!  He saved her without a sermon, tract, or anything else but Himself.  

Me, I was a false conversion, believing that I was, “saved, born again, etc.” because I repeated a, “sinner’s prayer.  I “parroted,” a prayer based on intellectual knowledge, no true faith required, no true, through and through, into the marrow of my bones realization or acknowledgement of my sin nature, so did that count?  No.  But I went through all of the motions, attended a house of worship, did what I was told, etc., and was not, as I came to learn, was not born again.  That came much, much later…

Finally, , take a moment and do as Paul had admonished, examine your salvation to see if you truly are in the faith. (2 Corinthians 13:5)

When Doubt is Important to Faith

this image signifies the struggle between doubt and faith as a personal struggle.

When Doubt is Important to Faith

Recently, I received an email from a man who asked me to provide him with proof concerning unique revelations I have received that he finds both disturbing and even frightening. Clearly his written words show that he has been reading my articles and watching my videos for a certain period of time. Why? Because he reports that he tried to dismiss my revelations but returned to them again. In fact, I have perceived between his lines that my videos and my articles have created spiritual doubt that is important to faith.

What I respect about this truth seeker is that he made it plain that if I have the truth that is from God, he better not defy or contend with me. So I respect that he has a fear of the Lord and a respect for truth, which causes me to believe that he is on the path to “walking in the Spirit” and that God will reveal the truth to him.

Consequently, rather than focus on his specific concerns, I want to make clarifications regarding doubt and faith. Aware that Christian Charismatics have persuaded multitudes of believers that doubt is the opposite of faith, once again, I have a different perspective. For we MUST doubt, in order to believe and ultimately receive truth. Without some doubt, we are nothing more than passive religious zombies. For if you believe  primarily because of the influence others from your family or your religious community  have set either by example or subtle or covert pressure, then your faith is vain and you are STILL in your sins.

So I open this discussion by reflecting upon what serves as the burden of proof where spiritual matters are concerned. Legally speaking, there are 3 levels of proof in court proceedings: Preponderance of evidence, Clear and convincing evidence, and beyond a reasonable doubt. Criminal trials that evaluate evidence by beyond the reasonable doubt standard have proven that each juror will evaluate the evidence from a personal perspective. What is proof to one juror may not be proof to another.

This is true when we consider our personal doubt in connection with faith. THE FAITH WE HAVE AS A HUMAN BEING CAN ONLY GO BUT SO FAR. WE ARE NOT BORN BELIEVING IN GOD OR IN THE BIBLE. We are not born believing on the Lord’s resurrection, but in order to be born again, we MUST believe it or we are headed toward the broad way to damnation.

Yet in our generation and every generation ever since His tomb was found empty, no one has met even ONE person that had overcome death in his or her flesh. NOT ONE. For there is no evidence on a natural level that can prove by a preponderance of the evidence, clear and convincing evidence or evidence that is beyond a reasonable doubt. In fact, the evidence that  we actually have points us to trillions who  have died since Christ was resurrected, with out our seeing even one person return from the dead.

This is quite the dilemma. A catch 22 situation. For I am equally damned if I believe the proof in the Bible, that the Lord was seen walking around in His resurrected body by over 500 witnesses as the one who sees this “proof” in the Bible and refuses to believe it. So even though our ultimate truth is what is written in the Bible, there is a personal component called FAITH that causes us to believe what we have not personally seen, simply “no visual, tangible proof. 

From childhood until I was 33 years old, I did not believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I actually did not believe in His existence much less that He died and came back to life in His physical body and that He promises that when He returns, if I am in the grave, I AM COMING OUT IN MY BODY!!!.

Yet I perceive my doubt as necessary to receive faith from God to believe this outlandish, quite frightening  revelation that JESUS IS RAISED FROM THE DEAD.

How did I believe what I perceived as “such nonsense?” I don’t really know how to explain HOW. All I know is that God placed faith in my spirit where doubt once lived , and I had nothing to do with it.

So I conclude that doubt can lead to faith IF GOD MAKES IT HAPPEN. Spiritual proof is EVEN MORE personal than legal proof because spiritual evidence is revealed and explained by God Himself. With the revelations I have received, I originally and personally received them as quite outlandish, opposed to my personal goals, objectives and expectations, yet compelling, none the less.

Actually it took me a year to believe what I received as being from God. I said to myself, “if what I have received is from God, proof will be revealed by studying church history.” My research became a book called “the Fake Jesus: Fallen Angels Among Us.”  

So as soon as my personal revelations were received by my spirit as truth,  my faith was increased beyond measure in spite of my original doubt. Why? Because the main reason why I ultimately believed my revelations was by my own interpretation of the scriptures as my foundation  or “proof.” . The written word confirmed and revealed what I had received first by doubt, and then by faith a year later. Yet I suspect that my doubt set me on a spiritual journey  that actually increased and strengthened my faith.

Sorry, I can’t cause anyone to enter into my space of faith where I rest and remain stress free.  Since spiritual proof is personal, the only one who can provide you with personal proof is God Himself. With deliverance counseling,  my job to is present the knowledge as I received it, the wisdom as I interpret it,  and leave it up to  God prove that He is the author and finisher of your faith and observe in awe how He transforms your need for proof into pure faith.

Its amazing how He does this!!

Evil Spirits and Hearing Voices

to portary how evil spirits cause us to hear voices,

by gailatrescue

 

Evil spirits and hearing voices came into my life 5 years ago. I struggled with contention against them. At that time, evil spirits and hearing voices constantly and consistently appeared, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. It all started gradually when they would say one word every 5 to 10 minutes. They would say things like “leave”. Later on, it gradually turned into constant, long running words telling me to do things and talking about Jesus.

Those evil spirits and hearing voices grew stronger after I visited a psychic, who claimed that she could help me. The voices started telling me to leave my job and not to go back into that building. One day, I obeyed those evil spirits and I left my job. That was a big mistake. As soon as I obeyed them, I gave them authority and control over me, and with that, those evil spirits continued a 24/7 harassment, and not giving me any breaks or pauses.

Then, I discovered an article online written by Pastor Pam Sheppard. I called her and when we spoke about my situation, she had knowledge about evil spirits and hearing voices, and understood what was happening to me. One of the ways her knowledge was evident was when she made it clear that me obeying those spirits was the absolute wrong thing to do. She discerned fear coming from me, and she also knew that I was not really born again, even though I thought I was.

Eventually, Pastor Pam started counseling me and I watched many of her videos, read her articles, and read her books. One of the many great things that Pastor Pam and the Holy Spirit did for me was help me take back my free will. Like she says in the video below, we worked and worked and worked until I took back my God given free will!!! And yes, I am holding it dear to me.

There’s more. After being in counseling and mentoring with Pastor Pam for 5 years I have progressed tremendously. Those evil spirits and hearing voices dramatically decreased to the point where I would go days without hearing from them. To me that is a true miracle. I have found multiple jobs and have been able to easily work in different areas that I felt was a better fit for me, compared to before where I was living in fear about being unemployed and unsure of when I would ever receive another pay check again.

Then on July 21st, 2019 at 12 pm God did something tremendous for me. He gave me a true salvation experience, which was truly supernatural, and absolutely not of my own doing. I had no idea I would become born again that day and was definitely not expecting it.

You see, years ago as a teenager I “accepted Jesus”, when prompted by the preacher to walk down the aisle and do such a thing. Yet looking back I realized I accepted Jesus out of pressure and fear to do what was expected of me and because of the promise suggesting I would be saved just by accepting him.

Yet when those evil spirits and hearing voices, came to harass me, my prayers, church attendance, and reading the Bible only made the voices come stronger and led to an increasing mention about what Jesus thinks I should do. Yet their words about Jesus didn’t make sense. Everything they wanted me to do was not fruitful, did not help me in my life whatsoever. In contrast, anything I listened to them about, put me in danger. After being in counseling with Pastor Pam, she taught me that I had a false conversion and everything that I felt didn’t quite add up during my time of being religious, started to make sense to me. I was worshipping the fake Jesus and praying to him and when I found that out, I stopped worshipping the fake Fake Jesus completely, and I removed myself from all religious behaviors that had been deeply rooted in my life.

One of the ways I advanced against those evil spirits and hearing voices harassing me, was when I renounced my false conversion. Not too long after that, I no longer heard voices in my head saying “Jesus thinks this”, “Jesus thinks that”. At that point, my goal was to get those evil spirits and hearing voices to leave me alone and not talk to me about anything at all because they were still commenting about everything I was doing. Thankfully, the sound and hearing from them reduced significantly and dramatically as I continued being counseled and mentored by Pastor Pam and I was feeling relieved and grateful for this.

As far as true salvation, I learned from Pastor Pam about waiting on God’s call to cause my salvation. Besides, there was plenty of work I needed to do on my soul, due to all the years, since childhood, of damage, pain, insecurity, and worries lodged deep inside me.

Then, my day arrived. On July 21st, 2019, at Pastor Pam’s annual workshop, after she preached an incredibly powerful sermon the day before, a sermon so powerful that after hearing it, the next day, the Holy Spirit led me to think about Jesus. Next, the Holy Spirit led me to repent, have Godly sorrow, GAVE me a clear understanding of the resurrection, and GAVE me the pure awe, shock, happiness, and excitement that Jesus actually is alive!! I went from loudly sobbing and to joyful astonishment that Jesus is actually alive. As this was all happening, all who were in attendance at that workshop were cheerful and encouraging witnesses to this occasion.

Now today, I know that I am a new creation in Christ. His grace of everything he has done and the power that is Him with the faith given to me that He defeated death, has a resounding and continuing impact on me.

As for those evil spirits and hearing voices, even before I got born again, they had already dramatically reduced. Since my rebirth less than 2 months ago, I have observed even more change and improvement. My salvation experience is so unforgettable, that it is my weapon and shield against them. The peace that I have is wonderfully more consistent than before I got born again and the evil spirits and hearing voices continue to decrease even more and more than before. Each week, I notice even more improvement against them, in that their presence has and continues to diminish.

One would wonder was waiting for Five years for the Lord and my born again experience worth it? It definitely was. Why? Because in the first few years, once I realized I had a false conversion and was progressively undeceived, I realized how much of a gift that it was to be undeceived and aware of all of the devils schemes, plots. His countless and often hidden tactics to destroy have been uncovered and as a person who became privy to this information, I used this knowledge to my healthy advantage, going about my life, safely altering, adjusting my life decisions based on what I knew about Satan’s deception tactics. God has blessed me with the truth of all the enemy’s deception and I am continually grateful for that. So in the midst of waiting for my salvation experience, that gratefulness was sweet to have in itself, just like the first bite into your favorite fruit you’ve been longing for, that sweetness of truth was and is refreshing.

So over a five year period, I overturned my false conversion, realized that salvation is a gift from God, not of mans own doing, and I did not waver but remained steadfast to what I continued to learn from the help I received in weekly deliverance counseling sessions.

With guidance and counseling from Pastor Pam Sheppard, her teaching, experience, and own born again history, Once flighty, I am now resilient. I know that God intended to cause me to eventually enter His family.

For me, Being born again is worth all the waiting I have done, because the new creation that salvation in Jesus Christ has given to me is extremely fulfilling, rewarding, and sustains me. The grace of salvation by Christ is everlasting and irreplaceable of anything the world offers. The peace the Lord has given to me , I am thankful for it and will always be thankful for it. The Lord has taken me out of Satan’s dark world and and into his light of truth.
