The Prince of the Power of the Air, Part 2

Praise the Lord.

Welcome to the sound of faith. Sharon not thanking you for joining us today because we know faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Today's message is a panoramic view of the evil influences and supernatural authorities driving our current chaotic culture, especially the anti-Christian America media, the prince of the power of the air and you know it's the same with all things Wi-Fi that support the Internet and online media. You know, Wi-Fi uses radio waves to transmit signals between the devices the computers or whatever it may be nearly everyone has a computer in their home. How many here have a computer in your home. Okay, it's just about every body and if you don't have a computer in your home.

How many at least have a smart phone then and manner of speaking, you have a computer. Amen. And you know our lives revolve around them. Let's face it.

Now they do.

You know you're always checking this or that or the other on your device or you're doing something yourself on your device.

Amen. I mean come on now people don't even go to the grocery store anymore.

They go online they go to bed. Let's say Walmart website they go to the groceries.

The day I want a BCD and then they come to the door and semi-brings groceries out to where you order take-out food where all doing things like this all the time.

We probably do it so much that we don't even think about it. What would happen if all the sudden we couldn't do that and most people not everyone, but many people least anybody. I would say 50 and younger are deftly 40 than younger social media account of some kind. There on Facebook or some sort of social media outlet. Amen. And you know what the good and wonderful thing about this is that it gives a tea to program Christian message is song in such on social media.

Amen. I mean, think about what happened when COBIT 19 first hit and we had that huge shutdown when you literally were not supposed to go anywhere. Amen.

In the very beginning back in April last year in May last year and will not hobble say no one does. To be able to get charge online negative know some of you remember that prior to that, we kept telling you will do live streaming soon.

Pretty soon what to do live streaming, but first we gotta paint the ceiling and we had to do this we gotta do that all these things we had to do in you.

We were getting them done that quickly different reasons but you know one day thoughts were going to go on live streaming. When we got plunged and don't live streaming where you are and we were expecting it. And yeah, it was from my kitchen table, but we did miss one Sunday and let me tell you it was struggles in my kitchen. We were using my laptop. The only problem is, as it started getting hot after all that time and when you started getting hot.

It's starting going out and here I am preaching at the table and Danny's walking over to the refrigerator and getting ice out of the freezer. The tiny cubicle so I can finish the message. Amen. And you know there was a lot of things with the lighting and with the sound and all kinds of stuff. It was crazy that we will still preach the goal of Internet. Amen. You know since then charges are now live streaming.

Let me tell you when we finally realize we have to get some better equipment then put ice cubes under your laptop. We got to get a real computer that's made for this and all the stuff that goes with it and when Benny would be searching to find one that would be going here sold-out go there so we charge and was jumping trying to keep contact with the people through the Internet and now you know many churches are saying like we did. Even when we go back to church were going to stay online for those people who really can't come to church. There are people who just can't there in nursing homes or maybe they are home, but their immobile and so will get to continue to minister to them. Amen.

And so all of this has been a tremendous tremendous blessing.

We all agree it's a great blessing.

And you know even you when you go home today maybe there's another preacher that you like, you know that you like to watch when you go home you'll watch the replay. You know like I like Brother Stottlemyre you know he live streams.

He reminds me of Brother Hardy when he was young.

He's like a young Brother Hardy way back and so you know you can watch him later and I'm sure y'all have one she loved. Amen. So there are many well-known preachers online not only pastors but teachers and evangelist and profits and they all have something to share with the body of Christ, and I tell you what Doug doesn't like it probably is not all these preachers we got some of our own ministers in the church that have their own nights when they come on. Amen. And I know you on who they are and you probably follow them. Amen.

See what he hates as he hates the truth and he hates the gospel and he's already through the meeting, the powers that be to censor or to silence if possible. The messengers and the message. Amen Facebook Google, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, all these outlets are censoring ministries and members their content there censoring their content if they come out and share what the Bible says what it preaches if they get on issues like abortion or homosexuality and same-sex marriage. They are censoring them. They're not supposed to. They're not doing fringe on first amendment rights of freedom of speech and freedom of religion, but they're doing it. Amen.

And often when they're doing it. People don't even know that it's being done. Amen. See, because now sexual rights trump First Amendment rights of freedom of speech and freedom of religion. And that's just the fact that trumps the Constitution those rights come above and before you're right my right to freedom of speech and freedom of religion and anyone that opposes the new morality that opposes the new morality like preachers like me amen and that preach biblical morals are being censored and/or silenced not let me give you a case in point. A very recent case in point. In January of this year, a very prominent messianic rabbi who is a best-selling author and a Christian TV speaker and a pastor of a large congregation. He felt led of the Lord to record a prophetic word to the new administration and posted on his Facebook and YouTube pages. He posted it on a Monday morning. By noon he had 1/2 a million views. The next day he had 1 million views and then they couldn't get over that they had never in anything he had ever ever posted had had so many views so fast in such a short time and then they notice something strange happened with you googled to look for that video. No results came up no results. It was as if the video had vanished. It was more than that.

It was as if it was never posted in the first place, like they're not such a posting of that video and only some copies could be found by Facebook members who had reposted on their page. And so they being very low level did not catch the attention of the sensors or they would have been taken off thereto, so it was only in the case where you know some ordinary Christian out there, had reposted it that some of them were still online now. They didn't take it off this ministers YouTube account, but you couldn't find it. If you tried to Google for it you would have to know how to go to it, or go to his website.

Amen. It was apparent that it was being suppressed. This is a method that is called shadow banding shadow banding that they're using on these media.

Each one of these different types of accounts that I've already mentioned shadow banding where they are banning the post and in most cases you will never know it.

You never know that's being done because of the way that it's being done. Amen. So when social media powers want to ban a message or banner poster even banner site. They do it in such a way that often the poster doesn't even know that their message is being censored or outright silenced and banned. Amen. These are forces that are being manipulated by the prince of the power of the air in what amounts to Christian digital persecution. Amen those who preach a biblical message that conflicts with the present progressive culture a.k.a. the counterculture, and these forces are being driven by the prince of the power of the air, amen and thanks the censorship the silencing in this persecution of Christians in this way. Real Christians is only going to increase. Amen.

So how did this place where Christians are labeled as evil and mentally imbalanced and dangerous to society. You know that they put the message out there.

These Christians are uneducated and ignorant.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

I know plenty of very intelligent, well educated people that believe the Bible is the word of God.

The inerrant truth of the word of God.

Amen. But that's the message that's put out there and that's what people think of us. So now let's answer that question. How did we arrive at this place. Let's go back to Isaiah chapter 5 they go so far as to say that we Christians are actually dangerous to society. Do I look dangerous to you and I look dangerous when you know what, in a way, I am dangerous. Any spirit filled child of God is dangerous to the agenda of the prince of the power of the air.

Amen. In that respect, we are dangerous. Isaiah chapter 5 verse 18 well under them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity and sin, as it were, with the court group. I know in the King James version. That sounds like a Y okay let me explain it to you.

It's a picture of someone who was eagerly crawling to themselves with some of these indices like cattle would pull the wagon with ropes to the picture. The idea is these are people that are calling sender themselves. I'll give my own metaphor that we might like better than this one because you know were really not into cattle a lot around here to all sender themselves like they are a magnet for sin. That is what it's saying amen and they had become so hardened by their sin that they are presumptuously presumptuously calling and girly drawing sin to themselves. You see folks there are people who in their weakness fall into sin. There week. They can't say no. There week without the power of the new birth without the power of the spirit of God continually fall into sin their two week. I love the Scripture in Romans the fifth chapter, when we were without strength Christ died for us when we were too weak to say no.

We wanted to do good, but we couldn't do it. We didn't want to do the sin, but we did it not talking about these folks in their weakness they fall into sin, but he's talking about sinners you in there against their present option to themselves. That's what this verse is saying amen they defy gently challenge God, you know, that is, if there is a God, but let's put that in sarcastically. If there is a God. They challenge him.

Do your worst to punish me use a word you get not from verse 19. Let's read it that say him speaking of God.make speed and hasten his work that we may see it. Let the Council of the holy one of Israel draw nigh income that we may know it now when you understand what they're doing here. It makes you want to say hello hello there mocking God mocking the idea that God will judge their sin. That's what's happening here. Amen. Another words there say all really come in doing so we can see on is what they're saying.

And when they say the holy one of Israel.

There saying it was scorn and their playing on the words and the prayers of true prophets of God, that in their messages, they would say, the holy one of Israel, with reverence, but they're taking it and saying it scornfully quell the holy one of Israel, and do his thing to us is your best shot and let us see it amen were ready where up to it. There is no fear of God in their hearts before their eyes. There's a verse in Jeremiah 1715, it says, behold, they say unto me, God speaking, behold they sent on to me. Where is the word of the Lord, now all the warnings that God was giving Israel through Jeremiah and this was right before the homework they were going. They were going to go into captivity, but he was sending one more profit.

One more profit. It made his face like flint like stone and said get out there. But don't worry about then get out there and deliver what I've told you and they said back to God. Oh yeah where is your word, let it come on this is how the minds and hearts of the people were I wanted to read 18 and 19 to you before we go to 20 because we are seeing and hearing many many ministers are constantly now quoting 20 but that impact in the import of verse 20 is more powerful when you read 18 and 19 and understand the mindset and the condition of the hearts of these people now verse 20 while on them that call evil good and good evil that put darkness for light and light for darkness the put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.

How many do we hear this verse a lot.

I myself have used it quite a bit because folks if it was ever coming to pass, and being fulfilled. It surely is. Now, would you not say amen to that. See here's the thing is, we read and 18 and 19th because they don't want to do right.

They all want to do what they do, excuse their sin. They have to excuse it. So they got up the lines of morality and that means they end up calling sin good. Amen they have to call sin good because that allows them to keep the main in their sin without any conviction by the Holy Spirit or condemnation by the word of God. The only way they can continue to live in their sin and not get under conviction condemnation is to collect good is to collect good and of course we understand we can give this you know one word deceived, deceived, they have deceived themselves because they want to do it, and yet somehow they want to throw off the voice of conviction and silence their conscience. They have to call it good and has spawned all of the mantras that we are hearing of tolerance today abortion. Abortion is a saying you know because it protects a woman's right and we want to support women don't wait let me tell you something nagging today, even in high places, like in the Senate are in the Congress where they may close they want to be labeled as somebody who did something in any way to go against women's rights thereof, they're afraid to be pegged as someone who did not stand up for women's rights. Even if in their heart of hearts they know abortion is wrong.

They know that it's murdered.

They know if infanticide but never then be someone is you don't respect women, you don't stand up for their rights. Many of them have changed courses recently that once were antiabortion, are no longer now and now they call themselves pro-choice. Pro-choice is that you and another preacher long time there but I'm trying to show you that now they calling good. It's good because that helps women and it especially helps poor women you know that's an insult an offense to the female gender.

Amen that you have to kill your own baby in order to advance and succeed in this world not to be able to succeed or not to give advance of your tie down was some kid you don't want, but that's what it boils down to.

Amen same-sex marriage now is a good thing you know because everyone has the right to be with the one they love. If you put it that way if you plan way then it sounds like a good thing.

One has a right to be with the one they love. Amen.

So when you put it that way.

It's a good thing and you know based on that now. Polygamists want to be with all the ones they love ladies. They love they want to be a love.

Oh yes you know the polygamists are getting bold think that shows all over cable, making it look like a wonderful normal thing and you know that's going to be next on the agenda and you know you probably are going to believe this but it's even now there are at least one case, and there may be more than one might be a couple that they're petitioning the ports to be able for a mother to marry her son. They say that they promise they will procreate and have children because of course that you have all kinds of birth defects and while that would just be a mess, but there's no guarantee it won't happen, but that's beside the point is when you start calling sin.

This is what happens. Amen. Any course we could go on and on about all the things but these are the two big issues. Amen.

They all claim they all say the idea is it's a good thing in passing quickly.

Just one more.

What about transgender males.

They want their right to participate with biological women and all women sports and where they're allowed to do what the women are getting beat down young high school women who had spent all their teenage years training but it's the one track or whatever it is, hoping to get a scholarship to college, but now they're coming down so far.

They should've committed one, two and three but no. Instead, you've got transgender males, and in one, two and three and the girls are getting pushed down to low to get scholarships. Amen. It's happening some states think you are stepping out a software. Some states are abolishing it in their state that the state have to do it. The federal government already on board our president is already on board with that. He said it's good it's a good thing.

So now the states are going to have to do it.

Amen. Because there are some places where the states have their own authority. Now it remains to be seen whether or not somebody is going to take it to the courts of the federal government and who was, where it will end up at probably end up in the Supreme Court and who knows by then we might have so many judges of the Supreme Court you just take the bag and threw it up here and see what comes out all yes some of you don't like to do you I told you up front. Amen. I would preach it as long as I can because I don't know one day I might be censored in silence and shut down.

They want to use the bathroom of their preference, which by the way, happens to be the women's bathroom even if they haven't had sex change surgery even if they're still biologically really a man they want to use the female bathroom. Amen. And that was put in force by a former president carte blanche across the nation.

When that came into being.

Amen.

And God forbid that we would because that was thrown, but what about the psychological harm to little girls to a seven-year-old girl born in there, seen a man in the bathroom and some women who may be afraid to go when Stalin know whether not she will be in. Come on now people don't even have common sense, but this is what you when you're gone.

Amen. What an eye-opening word of the Lord, the prince of the power of the air, the course of this world is being controlled by Satan, who is the prince of the power of the air our culture and media are fulfilling his evil anti-God agenda.

Paul said were in a cosmic wrestling match against principalities, authorities, the rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual wickedness in the heavenly. This refers to the second heavens, where Satan rules and in the atmosphere were radio waves satellites being down on the earth generating radio, TV and Internet.
