The Teachers Who Teqch About The Spirit of Athaliah

▪️ Jane Hamon – “Defeating the Athaliah Assignment”

Theme: Protecting destiny and leadership.

  • Jane Hamon teaches that the spirit of Athaliah is a generational, usurping spirit that arises after Jezebel has been confronted.
  • Where Jezebel manipulates and seduces, Athaliah destroys — she seeks to cut off the royal seed, meaning to destroy potential, heirs, and future leadership.
  • This attack especially targets leaders, prophets, and their children to end godly legacy and kingdom succession.
  • The solution: worship and covenant loyalty—like Jehoiada the priest who hid Joash in the temple, believers must guard what God has birthed until it’s mature.
  • Victory comes when we expose and dethrone Athaliah by publicly re-crowning the rightful king (symbolically, the Lord’s authority in your life).

Key verse: 2 Kings 11:1–3 – Athaliah destroyed the royal heirs, but Joash was hidden for six years in the temple. Continue reading “The Spirit of Athaliah” →

It’s Dangerous to Judge God’s Ministers

On By staceihsIn 🔸 Authority, 🔸 Leadership, Warnings & Serious IssuesLeave a comment

1. God Himself Appoints His Ministers

Romans 14:4 (NKJV)

“Who are you to judge another’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.”

Paul reminds believers that ministers serve God, not us. When we criticize or condemn them, we’re stepping into God’s jurisdiction — judging His servant as though we were their master.

Application: It’s not our role to decide if a servant of God is worthy or unworthy; that’s the Lord’s role alone.

When Jesus Steps Back

“For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.” — James 3:16

The room was full, the seats were taken, and everyone had come to hear a Word. But somewhere between the introductions and the message, the attention turned inward. Voices rose. Opinions collided. Arguments broke out over small things — who was right, who was wrong, whose way was best.

At first, no one noticed that Jesus had stepped away from the front.
He had been ready to speak — the Word Himself among them — but as the sound of contention filled the air, He moved quietly to the back of the room. Continue reading “When Jesus Steps Back” →

Authority Over Weather

Authority Under Direction

Balancing Faith, Revelation, and Obedience

Introduction

In every generation, the question resurfaces: Do believers have authority over storms, weather, and the natural world around them?

Jesus clearly demonstrated His command over creation when He rebuked the wind and said, “Peace, be still,” and the sea became calm (Mark 4:39). He also extended authority to His followers, declaring, “Behold, I give you authority over all the power of the enemy” (Luke 10:19).

Yet Scripture never shows every disciple using this authority to calm storms. The pattern of the Word reveals that divine power must always be exercised under direction, not as an independent act of will.

Authority That Flows From the Head

Authority belongs to Christ the Head, and believers operate as His Body. It is delegated, not possessed outright. The Word of Faith teachers—Kenneth E. Hagin, Kenneth Copeland, Charles Capps, and others—emphasize this truth consistently: believers have real authority in Christ, but it functions only through revelation and obedience.

Let’s Get Real About Halloween by kcm

📌Let’s get real about Halloween.
Kcm

Each year the world celebrates Halloween with almost no understanding of the darkness behind the holiday. For many, the idea of dressing up in a costume is a way to celebrate and spend time with family and friends, and they give no thought to the significance of the day. Cute costumes, decorations and Halloween parties seem like fun; meanwhile the devil deceives people by using Halloween to draw people into darkness away from God’s light.

Jesus knew the believer would live in a world of darkness, and He prayed for the Father’s help. “I’m not asking You to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one” (John 17:15). In the midst of a dark world, you can walk in God’s light.

How do you walk in God’s light as a believer? Continue reading “Let’s Get Real About Halloween by kcm” →

Did People Try to Use Jesus Politically?

On By staceihsIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

Did People Try to Use Jesus to Get Ahead Politically?

Yes—at several points in Scripture, people did try to use Jesus for political purposes. But every time, He refused that role. Let’s look at it clearly and biblically.

1. After the Feeding of the 5,000 (John 6:14–15)

“When the people saw the sign that He had done, they said, ‘This is indeed the Prophet who is to come into the world.’

Jesus, perceiving then that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew again to the mountain by Himself.”

Context:

The crowd wanted to crown Him as a political messiah—someone who would overthrow Rome and restore Israel’s national glory. But Jesus withdrew. He refused to let His ministry become a tool of nationalism or rebellion. His kingdom would not be built on political force, but on truth and transformation.

How To Handle Blessings w/o Boasting

On By staceihsIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

📌Dear Sir,

One of the things I’ve struggled with over the years is how to handle the blessings of the Lord without feeling like I’m bragging. When God surprises me with a bonus at work or when someone blesses me financially because they felt led by the Lord, I hesitate to share it. If I do, people sometimes respond as if I’m trying to act better than them.

I know that God’s blessings are not about me being a better Christian or having a better covenant, but it’s still awkward.

I don’t want to feel guilty for being blessed, but I also don’t want to hurt others. What do Word of Faith people generally teach about this tension?

Sincerely,
A Grateful but Hesitant Believer

🔹Dear Friend,

You’ve touched on something that many believers wrestle with: how to walk in God’s blessings openly without guilt, pride, or unnecessary restraint. The Word of Faith message has always emphasized that God’s blessings are meant to be enjoyed, but also stewarded with wisdom, humility, and love.

First, remember this: you are not wrong to rejoice in what God has given you. Paul said in 1 Timothy 6:17 that God “richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.” Testimonies of blessing are not boasting—they are evidence of God’s faithfulness. Hiding them out of guilt does not honor Him.

At the same time, wisdom tells us there’s a time, place, and audience for everything. Jesus taught in Matthew 7:6 not to cast pearls before swine—not everyone can receive your testimony in the spirit it’s given. Some may interpret your joy as superiority, when really it’s gratitude. That doesn’t mean you are wrong; it means they are not in a place to celebrate with you.

Word of Faith teachers often counsel this balance:
• Share to glorify God, not yourself. Frame blessings as His goodness, not your cleverness. “The Lord surprised me with this bonus—He’s so faithful” sounds very different than “I got another blessing because I live by faith.”
• Discern your audience. With faith-filled people, testimonies inspire and stir expectation. With those who are hurting or struggling, sometimes silence or sensitivity is love. Romans 12:15 says, “Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.” Both are biblical.
• Bless out of your blessing. If God gives you a trip, maybe bring back a small gift to your friends at work or invite them into your joy by sharing the experience thoughtfully. That way your abundance overflows into encouragement rather than comparison.

The general consensus among Word of Faith voices is this: Don’t apologize for being blessed. It is the fruit of covenant, obedience, and God’s goodness. But don’t flaunt it either. Carry it with humility, give glory to God, and look for ways your testimony can encourage rather than discourage.

A true testimony shines light on the Giver, not the receiver. When you keep that focus, you can celebrate freely without guilt.

In His service,
🦋

Points to Ponder:

When God blesses you, how can you frame your testimony so that it honors Him and encourages others without stirring comparison?

🙏🏻Prayer Suggestion:

“Father, I receive Your blessings with joy and gratitude. Teach me to share my testimonies in a way that glorifies You, blesses others, and points every heart back to Your faithfulness. I refuse guilt, and I choose to walk in humility and freedom as a child of Your covenant. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

blessings, prosperity, boasting

Dear Prophet: Painful History

On By staceihsIn 🔸 Dear ProphetLeave a comment

Dear Prophet,

I know your heart carries a history that few understand. You were marked by God long before the trend of the prophetic became popular, before conferences filled with banners and catchphrases. In the early 90’s, when the Spirit was stirring a wave, you carried something genuine—yet in the rush, many in the church could not discern between the true and the sensational. That confusion left you bruised, pushed to the sidelines by the very ones you hoped would recognize the Lord’s deposit in you.

Rick Joyner often reminded us that the greatest danger to prophets is not rejection, but isolation. Wounded prophets are tempted to retreat, because their pain makes solitude feel safer than misunderstanding. And yet, the enemy knows that a hidden watchman, silenced by hurt, is a city left unwarned. Your difference is not a defect—it is the evidence of your calling. Prophets will always feel out of step, because they hear a rhythm from eternity that the earth has not yet learned to dance to.
