The True Exodus: Spiritual Warfare That Breaks Free from Satan’s Slavery

 

The Exodus was not merely an escape but a direct confrontation with Satan, who sought to obstruct the Exodus.


Satan’s strategy to hinder the Exodus began with disrupting worship.


When Moses declared that the Israelites needed to go on a three-day journey into the wilderness to offer sacrifices to the LORD, Pharaoh mocked and dismissed him.


With scorn, he asked, “Who is the LORD?”


Do not be deceived by the language of Satan who disregards the Creator God, Jesus Christ's covenant of the cross.

Bind it and cast it out.

This is the direct confrontation and the spiritual warfare.


At the threshold of the Exodus, Satan’s long-standing strategy was exposed:

to deceive and torment through the old methods.


Pharaoh commanded that no straw be provided, yet the Israelites must still gather the same number of bricks as before from the fields.

Crushed under impossible demands, the people turned against Moses in anger and division.


Satan creates circumstances we cannot solve with our own strength, pressing us into anxiety, discouragement, complaint, resentment, and despair until darkness takes hold of our souls, our children, our families, and even the church.


Do not fall for Satan’s strategy that steals our time, drains our strength, increases our burdens, and pushes us into despair and division.


When the strongholds of Satan that have taken root in our souls are shattered in the mighty name of the Messiah Christ of Genesis 3:15, the divine weapon, our problems become platforms for blessings, and our crises become opportunities.


Only the spiritual battle that moves us from death to life, that sets us free from the law of sin and death, is the true Exodus, the liberation from Satan’s slavery. Amen!

(Exodus 5:4–21, 2 Corinthians 10:4–5)

The Thoughts of Re-Creation, The Secret to Becoming Lovable Before God and People

Image
The twelve-year-old Jesus was not an ordinary boy. As prophesied by the prophet Isaiah, Jesus was a shoot came up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch bore fruit upon whom the Spirit of the LORD rested – the Spirit of the LORD, the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. He was the fulfiller of the covenant. Born from the bosom of God, the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. However, Mary and Joseph, after twelve years, lost hold of that faith and searched for Jesus for three days with worry, frustration, and irritation, captured by the thoughts of the flesh. Jesus, the remnant who grew in stature and wisdom and in favor with God, knew he must be in his Father God’s house, the place of grace. However, his parents, who had strayed from the place of the covenant and grace, could not enjoy the blessing even with Jesus the Messiah right beside them. The Virgin Mary, who once sa...

A Gospel Community of Worship Centered on the Covenant: 315 Nation

Image
The descendants of Jacob, who possessed the covenant, were fruitful and multiplied greatly and became exceedingly numerous, so that the land was filled with them. The genealogy of the covenant recorded by Moses is directly connected to God’s work of salvation. To be related to God’s work of salvation means to be headed toward the land of Canaan flowing with milk and honey, the land where the Messiah would come. Though Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation died, the Israelites who stood within God’s work of salvation and timing were greatly blessed according to God's promise to make them as numerous as the stars in the sky and the sand of the sea. When we worship centered on the covenant just as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob did, we will see evidence that we will increase and multiply by God’s method. This is the easiest way to overcome the world. We are not of the world, but are chosen by God. We are the remnants who carry God’s mission, the pilgrims who evang...

The Re-Creative Language that Transforms Our Thoughts Centered on the Gospel

Image
To love one another does not require much effort. If our thoughts are properly aligned with the gospel, we can love one another just as the Apostle John loved the elder Gaius. When we transform our thoughts centered on the gospel, we begin to speak the words of the gospel. The re-creative language Christians use brings prosperity to the soul, success in all things, and strength in health. "Beloved, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well." Elder Gaius, who walked in the truth, was a disciple of Christ with the image of one worthy to be called “Beloved,” and used the language of the gospel. The Apostle John’s record of Elder Gaius, Demetrius the witness of the truth, and Diotrephes the hinderer of the gospel was intended to show that the outcome of the walk of faith depends on whether we crush the serpent’s head in the name of Jesus Christ who came to destroy the devil's work. Elder Gaius walked in th...
