Sermon by Jentezen Franklin : Spirit of Python

When you read the bible you are breathing in and when you pray you are breathing out. To properly breath you need to breath in and out. 


1) Spiritual battles are very real

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." Ephesians 6:12

2) The devil wants to be left alone to do his work

"In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an impure spirit. He cried out at the top of his voice, 34 “Go away! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!” Luke 4:33-34

Spirit of Python
(Acts 16:16-18 : The servant lady was possessed with the spirit of python) 

Python is a type of serpent that kills not by its venom but by squeezing the life out of its victims. 
Breath: Biblically speaking is the Holy spirit. The enemy (python) chokes its victims until they can't breath.

What the spirit of python hates : how he plans to kill

1)The enemy hates prayers : he wants you to worry instead of praying and giving all your worries to God
2) The enemy will constrict you: he will try to limit your hopes and dreams
3) The enemy hates when you praise God : the spirit will be broken when you praise God

When you are under spiritual attack

1) You will lose spiritual desire : you won't want to read your bible, pray or sing songs of praise
2) You will pull away from Godly relationships

Stay Blessed<3

Sermon by Jentezen Franklin: Spirit of Python: Teaching Angels to Worship

When you are going to hell/trails and you worship is when you can teach the Angels to Worship :) 1) God is Spirit : the Spirit is looking for people who will worship Him in truth and In spirit. *In Truth: the right truth (Jesus : see John 14:6) * In Spirit: even during trails we need to be in the spirit of Joy, Faith, Hope and Love "God is spirit,  and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” John 4:24 2) God can make something out of nothing : before God spoke the world into motion it was nothing. He took what was nothing made it into something. He also hung it on nothing, there is nothing that holds the universe in place! “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?      Tell me, if you understand." Job 38:4 How and when can we teach worship to the Angels? Angels Vs. Us Angels 1) Angels have never been nor will they ever be under the course of sin 2) They live in a perfect place (Heaven) 3) The fir...

He is a Better Planner!

I did not mean to take the whole summer off from blogging it just so happen to be that way. Partly due to the numerous things that were changing in my life but more so due to lack of better planning/ time blocking. One of the highlights of my summer was becoming a Mrs. I never knew the weight the pre-fix would carry until I heard someone address me as such. I don't know about you but the Amharic word is, even more, weightier, "ወይዘሮ/weyizero"!. That was one of my life updates. Now that I said that, let's get to the meat and potatoes of my post... I have said before that I am a recovering perfectionist. Today, I stand before you confirming that statement still rings true in my life. I confess, somedays, I face some battles as if I had never before and get frustrated because I haven't gotten perfect at not being a perfectionist! You see the irony...   Tracing back where my want/need to be perfectionist came from, I was surprised to find out that it was linked to ...
