The Jezebel - spirit Part 2

continue from part 1


The Jezebel - spirit

4. The character of this spirit:
    a.  Seemingly submissive and demanding (low and humble), however, once it gains
         authority, it will manifest strong control-spirit and shameless presumption
         (to take upon oneself without permission).
         In 1 Corinthians 14:34, Paul talked about the opposite.

    b.  It has strong love for money, power and fame. The ministry is only good if there
         is money in it. Ministry by itself is neglected and the sheep are neglected and
         unloved. It will readily go to where love-gifts are in abundance.

    c.  It is sensual (soulish, carnal - inward worldly), impolite, proud, impertinent,
         ill-mannered and very often abusive.

    d.  It loves attraction. It loves to be seen.

    e.  It loves competition, aiming for praise, recognition or promotion.

    f.  It will not submit to higher power or authority.

    g.  It will demonstrate false love and kindness. It will love only when it is loved,
         but once displeased, displeasure will be easily detected. All the love and
         kindness are suddenly just 'make-up'.
         See 2 Kings 9:30.

    h.  It will be pleased only with its admires. It will love to be loved and admired.

     i.  He will resist God's chosen plan for his life. He will want higher calling. He will
         crave for position.

The Jezebel - spirit Part 1

The Jezebel-spirit

1. What kind of spirit is this Jezebel-spirit?

Religious-spirit. Works in religious-organizations-Christian. Organizations, especially churches that believe in the Baptism and works of the Holy Spirit.


2. Which sex is more vulnerable to it?

Just women, some people believe, but men were not safe from it either. Because Queen Jezebel seemed to be the first person and woman to be inspired by it and so that too seemed to be its name, old theologian-scholars seemed to believe that it began in a woman, but that has not been true.

The first target seemingly, was King Ahab. See, it worked successfully through him, and he was not a woman, and he was Jezebel’s husband. But, was King Ahab the first target?

The second target was Queen Athaliah, the wife of King Jehoram, the fifth king of Judah. Athaliah was King Ahab’s daughter. She readily fell into the deadly trap. Was Athaliah the second target?

After looking into the lives of these people (Jezebel, Ahab, Athaliah), the people who lives almost similar to theirs were; King Saul, Absalom, Ahajiah son of Jehoram king of Judah (the son in-law of King Ahab). There were scores of others.

In the New Testament, Herodias, the wife of Herod Philip who left him marry his brother Herod Antipas, showed this spirit in her life.
*Matthew 14:3,8 

  Mark 6:17,24
  Luke 3:19f

3. How then, do we address this spirit? ‘it’ ‘he’ ‘she’?

All can be used.

This study is taken from two books:

i. The Word of God, the Bible. (Found in Samuel, Kings and the Book of Revelation).

ii. Writter and Prophet Rick Joyner wrote some of this in one of his book.


And from the seminar by,

i. Pastor Samuel Saden.
