Going back
to The Garden of Eden, that moment Eve looked at the apple of the ‘forbidden’
tree and she desired to have it. Although the serpent appeared to her and spoke
to her despite the fact that, ‘serpents’ do not talk. Yes, she saw the serpent
but she heard and listened to the beast inside her. The beast that gained
access the moment she focused on the tree, that moment she saw the fruits. The Serpent
came because she walked to the tree, she was by the tree, and she was looking
at the tree and probably wondering why God denied them the tree. She got the
answer she sought after. She got the answer from the Beast within.
There is a Beast
living in every man. The beast tells man it is ok to kill for money, slander
your friend, betray a brother, be a false witness, be unfaithful, and be
selfish... The Beast says it is an adventure. The Beast says it is fun. The Beast
says there is nothing to lose. The Beast says no one will ever know it is you. The
Beast says you can be justified.
The Beast
exists just for Three Reasons; To Steal,
To Kill and To Destroy.
The Beast stole
Eternal Life from Adam and Eve. They could not access the tree of life. The tree
of life was also in the Garden, Genesis 3:24, the tree of life will make them
live forever. God had to protect them from accessing the tree of life because
if they do, Evil would last forever and man will never die.
The Beast killed
the Holy Spirit in Adam and Eve. They could not relate with God anymore because
they have lost the image and are no more in His likeness. They were ashamed to
let Him see them. They have been transformed into a Beast. The Beast within is now outwith.
The Beast destroyed
the plan of God for man, man’s relationship with God, inheritance of their
generation. Man now has to struggle, work hard and be determined to get it
back. Man had to face the challenge to Choose
His Destiny. How easy it must have been for Adam when God chose Eve for
him; he had nothing to worry about because God knows his needs.
The Beast
lives in Man…
HOW TO BATTLE THE BEAST
- Have A Winning Mentality. Make up your mind to fight and believe you will win the battle because you are not alone. The realization of a battle in view is supernatural therefore, you are not alone. You are fighting with Christ by your side. Do not forget that Jesus has overcome the world, John 16:33. Believe you are winning the battle.
- Train for the Battle. You cannot go to the battle with a pot belly. Burn that fat. Diet. Constantly feed on the Word. Be determined to not stop when you are tired but stop when you are done. Double up!!! Pray without ceasing.
- Wear the Armor. Put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of Light, the battle is near, Romans 13: 12. Put on the full armor of God, Ephesians 6:11.
- Attack!!! Don’t be on be defensive, be offensive. Shut your ears to the beast, bind the beast, cast out the beast, and shut the door against the beast, rebuke the beast and he will flee from you. Focus on Christ. He is the commander. Obey orders.
The Beast
must die for man to have his inheritance back. It is time to take territory. It
is time to wage war against the Beast.
