Demons Are Evil Spirits
Revelation 16:13-14, “And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.”
Notice in Revelation 16:13-14 the Devil’s imitation of the Godhead. The Bible mentions the Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet. An evil spirit (demon) proceeds forth from each of these to gather the wicked kings of the earth to the Battle of Armageddon (Megiddo in Israel). This battle concludes the Tribulation period when the Lord returns to put down the Antichrist (the Beast), the False Prophet, and the Dragon (Satan himself, Revelation 20:2).
Present-day Israel is Satan’s counterfeit, waiting for the Antichrist (their counterfeit messiah) to reign over the New World Order (the Antichrist’s counterfeit kingdom). The true Messiah is Jesus Christ, who will literally reign upon the throne of David from Jerusalem over the earth, beginning at His Second Coming after the 7-year Tribulation period. Beware of Satan’s Zionist counterfeits today!
There is a demonic attack happening today across America. Demonic influences absolutely saturate American society, from homosexual Hollywood to Sin City, Las Vegas. Demonic spirits influence people through lust on television and also through fleshly rock music that stirs the flesh and hardens the soul. Rock music and TV diminish the awfulness of sin. American culture idolizes the music of Ozzy Osbourne, Katy Perry, Lecrae, Justin Bieber, Billy Idol, Madonna, Eminem, Van Halen, and other demonic singers and bands. It is a shame to hear a high school orchestra playing “JUMP” by Van Halen. Dolly Parton sang Led Zeppelin’s occultic “STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN” on her album. Johnny Cash sang “13” by hardcore Satanist Glen Danzig.
Demons look for human weakness and vulnerability. Alcohol and drugs are popular mediums through which demons (evil spirits) are able to infiltrate a person’s soul and corrupt their behavior. Some of the most heinous crimes ever committed were committed by drunkards. My friend, you can’t take two drinks if you don’t take the first. That’s good advice for young people. The philosophy of not drinking and driving is insane. The truth is that there is no law in America against drinking and driving. The law only punishes alcoholics if their BAC (blood alcohol content) is higher than .08 (eight hundredths). Most companies fire an employee at .01 BAC; yet America’s corrupt legal system allows drivers on the road at .06 and .07 legally. Many deadly accidents involved alcohol-impaired drivers whose BAC did not exceed .08. Demons love beer drinkers!
What Michael Jackson did to himself is nothing less than demonic. Michael Jackson was and is idolized by his fans as a singing god. Not surprisingly, Jackson’s music is highly favored amongst gay, lesbian, transgender, and bisexual people worldwide. Jackson’s life and career went from being that of a popular young black entertainer to a nightmarish freak show. Lisa Marie Presley stated on MySpace after Jackson’s death that during their marriage, Michael saw “awful vampires and leeches” around her. I am not trying to be unkind in any way, truly, but Satan wants to destroy all of us. Jesus even told Peter, one of His Apostles, that “Satan hath desired to have you… that he may sift you as wheat” (Luke 22:31). Saved or unsaved, Satan wants to have you and destroy your life!
A common denominator between the occult, witchcraft (whether Celtic or Wiccan), and Satanism is sexual sins and nudity. When Peter was fishing naked and then saw Jesus, he immediately grabbed his fisherman’s coat and jumped into the sea (John 21:7). Jesus is the cure for nudity. Luke 8:35, “Then they went out to see what was done and came to Jesus and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind; and they were afraid.” Amen! Even those possessed of demons come into their right mind when they trustingly sit at the feet of Jesus, their Savior. No demonic power on earth can prevent the salvation of a soul or the mending of a broken man when childlike faith is present in Jesus Christ.
1st John 4:4 teaches, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.” That Scripture is only true concerning the saved believer, whose sins have been taken away by the precious blood of Jesus. Although a born-again Christian cannot be demon-possessed, so to speak, they can be demon-influenced. A demon cannot reside in the temple of the Holy Spirit (which is the body of the believer according to 1st Corinthians 3:17). However, Christians who dabble in Rock ‘N’ Roll, fornication, pornography, and alcoholic beverages are opening themselves up to demonic influences.
