Part two - Devil Sends Junk Mail

by Bryan W Melvin on 04/12/19

Continued - Part Two: Part One: Devil sends Junk Mail

By B W Melvin


Fifth Point on identifying these folks:


They bring in the Occult into the church advertised with great sounding junk mail with bible verses attached - To lead you away from what the bible actually says like:

 

2 Co 6:14-16, “For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? 15 And what accord has Christ with Belial? 16 What agreement has the temple of God with idols?” NKJV

 

Verses17-18, “Therefore "COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM AND BE SEPARATE, SAYS THE LORD. DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN, AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU." 18 "I WILL BE A FATHER TO YOU, AND YOU SHALL BE MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS, SAYS THE LORD ALMIGHTY." NKJV

 

They instead ignore these verses and use really convincing sales lingo like – the new age - the occult stole from God certain laws and corrupted them, and we are mandated to take them back! So, they pass on into your junk file - phenomenon passed off as of being God approved but are in reality New Age/Hindu Kundalini practices…

 

Really, God wants you to bark like a dog? (Possessed folks do that) Lean your head left to hear the Holy Spirit speak as he only speaks in ones left ear? (Isn’t God omnipresent?). Come slow motion dance before God with Ti Chi moves! (What?)

 

Pass through of Fire tunnels where all lays hand on you and you them! (1 Tim 5:22 don’t lay hands on anyone hastily). Why is pagan fire worship practices, like Moloch’s fire line symbolically accepted as of God now where the spirits allegedly dope of the infant victim to laugh as they are being burned alive in the fires?

 

Walk labyrinth maze prayer circles find universal peace – really why bring in Jesuit spiritual exercises borrowed from ancient mystery religions of ancient Egypt into the church when the Holy Spirit resides in you and will guide you into all truth.  The Lord needs no help from paganism’s mysticisms getting in touch with the divine within to help you go … humm

 

Nor do you need a Christian form of astral projection to zip around the planet and reach heaven too.

 

If you have practiced this these sorts of things have you notice how depression and spiritual attacks comes more often after the honeymoon phase wore off?

 

Have you ever spoken to a Christian who has come out of the New Age movement or who has been delivered from the spirits that come by astral projection?

 

Here is a common summery of what they say – they astral project themselves out of the body and travel around (Jason Westerfield did this). They meet a spirit guide who takes them places, sometimes into a paradise to pass on new enlightenment – a new level of consciousness…

 

Honeymoon phase wears off- then the spirit guides appears not so nice. Some type of frightening things happens like sleep paralysis or total fear that they can’t reenter their body during an ascend.

 

Soon they see the spirit guides for the demonic beings they really are who have been fooling them.

They soon then seek deliverance and become some of the strongest and most level-headed Christians I know because they hate the New Age garbage with a passion as it is destructive.

 

We have whole conference in some of the faster church hopping growth movement on how to ascend so you can bring heaven down to earth … this is epidemic! It is also staining true Godly experiences as false and that is just like devil to do this, is it not?

 

Folks Again - There are real heaven encounters, there are real gifts of the spirit and the Devil does not want people to move in these, so he sends his mail carriers to keep sending you junk mail to stop the real in your life… he uses honest human desire to see the things of God and ruins junk mail.

 

Number Six – Their Junk Mail makes bad doctrine sound correct by scripture bending

 

2Pe 2:1-3, “But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies…2 And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. 3 By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words…” NKJV

 

Here is but one example of Bad doctrine: sowing seed – giving money. This is so bad now that people no longer give tithes and offering to the Lord because of exploitation

 

No matter one’s view on tithes, giving, or offerings bible says 2 Cor 9-10 let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. Verse 10 Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness,

 

They damage God’s kingdom and stain his name by their teaching on subject of money to bleed folks dry of income – For me, this has left a bad taste in my mouth as I was burned by this? Have You?

 

What is the truth well - Let’s set the record straight: Widows Mite (Mark 12:41-44)

 

Mark 12:41-44, Now Jesus sat opposite the treasury and saw how the people put money into the treasury. And many who were rich put in much. Then one poor widow came and threw in two mites. 43 So He called His disciples to Himself and said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury; 44 for they all put in out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all that she had, her whole livelihood (Bios – spirit-spirit all of herself)."

 

It is not about the amount, or giving till it hurts, it is about giving out her life-Bios- soul – she loved God and wanted to obey God whom she loved and gave what she had because she loved God enough to trust him – period. “Ouch… that hurts!”

 

It is not about giving to get. You don’t give to get. Tithes - offerings are about obeying God because you love him – not what you can get out of him. How do I know this?

 

Mat 6:3 Jesus said, “But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing…”

 

Luke 6:34-35 sets up the principle – to lend-give not expecting a return… You see God test the heart

 

Those in the temple gave out of their abundance to get more abundance – they were robbing God by manipulating bible verses like Mal 3:10 to twist God’s arm in give them an increase – making God obligated to perform his own word to them…

 

When Jesus was tempted by devil in desert the Devil tempted Jesus to use other scriptures in the same way (see Luke 4:9-13)

 

Devil told Jesus, “Jump off – Angels will catch you because it is written you know!”

 Aren’t you glad Jesus passed the test so we can too! – come on now say amen to that!

 

Using the bible to manipulate God to give to you because he promises to give back pressed down shaken together – blessing you can’t contain is not the sole reason to give – do you see this yet?

 

Bad doctrine teaches people to give in order to get – so God is obligated to give back many fold thus people are exploited and gamed of their hard earned dough. It leaves a bad taste after you catch on and the result, those doing God’s true work lack resources needed to dispense abroad.

 

The widow, by what the Greek word translated as livelihood or life means – she gave without thought of getting anything back – she loved and trusted God for the temple work. Her life was into her giving…she loved God’s work and gave. She did not demand by her giving to get back her due with interest from God like the others did… thus robbing God by contrived forcing his hand because she gave.

 

Mal 3:10 is about giving in loving obedience so God’s works and ways to continue on earth, not to twist God’s arm in a formula to get more abundant blessings from God. It shows you really trust God and to trust him like that means one Loves Him… “ouch! That even convicts me!”

 

God told the folks in Mal 3:8-9 they were robbing God. Jesus told the Pharisees Scribes and Sadducees of his day they tithed everything to the minute degree with the idea of getting God to give back to them while neglecting the weightier matters. Jesus rebuke them for this as he did so Mal 3:8-9 for causing the whole nation of Israel to rob God.

 

Tithes and giving is a test of love for God we all must face. Do we love and trust God enough to give to his work without any expectation of return – if so the blessings of Mal 3:10 will follow.

 

Ouch – that hurts – tithes -offerings – who to give too: give to those doing the work of God as an act love to God that you trust and not what you get out of him – test – try him in this…ouch do we trust God – really trust him?

 

Face it –   we are all guilty in some degree - right? We’ve been so burnt and hurt by the fakery that many don’t give at all anymore? The Kingdom of God hindered on earth – God help us!

 

Look for those – who sow the real gospel into others’ lives the gospel. Is your church that way – fine. If not and the leader wants his sixth 74 million dollar privet jet – run to the hills.

 

Lastly number seven – the Devils mail carriers mail out: Last days revival cometh approved by only by us!

 

Book of Joel mentions cyclic of outpourings of the HOLY SPIRIT and the one in the last days will be astounding. The bible backs this up. There will be a last day last call of sorts – great revival most likely as the book of Revelations mentions about the two witnesses and the 144,000- end time evangelist sent forth. Before that time, cyclic revivals-awakenings happen too.

 

However False minsters, who deliver junk mail, use the idea of end time revival as the means to spread their new revelations received while playing checkers with God in the throne room.

Their revival - is all about easy street, prosperity, effortless evangelism when all run into their building to receive their radical positive change then receive a set of pretty tickle me pink ear rings for coming.  

 

If you disagree – you are not in the in cutting edge crowd doing God’s new things because the teachings about surrendering to God, denying self, carrying the cross, the message of the cross. Jesus resurrection, preaching the name of Jesus was okay in the day but now outdated as too offensive and not secret sensitive enough…they shame you for even daring to stand for the real Jesus   

 

Folks, every outpouring of the Lord’s brought forth extreme persecution and rejection of the gospel while at the same time bringing masses to the Lord

 

Jesus said of last days in Mark 13:13, “And you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But he who endures to the end shall be saved.” NKJV

 

Jesus also said he came to bring a sword – divide who will be with him - out from those who reject

 

When Jesus cast Legion out of a man the locals wanted Jesus to leave the area, not set up a healing ministry! They chased him out of town. So what did Jesus do – why he sent the man who was set free back into  the area testify – lay the ground work for a future harvest to come after his resurrection.

 

Jesus heals a blind man and immediately the man found himself on trial in the synagogue, yet he testified of Jesus and would not deny him. He was set amongst wolves. His own parents denied him and he lost his place in the synagogue and society for not denying Jesus! Many who heard later became believers in Christ!

 

Question: What is this end time revival or any move of God going to cost you?

 

Way the devils junk mail says – nothing much at all – other than avoid the doctrines that changed the world out of darkness in exchange for more junk mail!

 

The Junk mail carriers teach – the opposite – all will be well – if only great signs and wonders happen again people will run into their churches and fill them up. However, Jesus said to go out into all the world, make disciples to be influenced by the Holy Spirit and not influenced by some guru – who needs his or her 10th privet jet or their 5th mansion on beach

 

The man freed of Legion went out and set the stage for others to harvest later on. The Lord Changes not. All moves of God create harshest push back by the world system against Jesus and wants him run out of town.

 

Being weirdly wacky barking like dogs, holding fire tunnels, astral projecting, occultism mixed into the church also creates push back and in no way legitimatize nonsense as approved of God either but only serves the enemy to destroy the faith of many Christians.  The world mocks this, it does not push back against it – in fact we now have Christian witch conferences!

 

All heaven-sent revivals travail in prayer where folks spent time to know God deeper and, in the process, had their souls and heart healed and shouted Glory to Jesus who redeemed set them free to all around – testifying midst the harshest push back – that name Jesus caused – my how the fur flies as they say when that happens!

 

As Rev 12:11 says -- And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

 

Are you ready? Let’s pray

 

Heavenly Father, I ask for your holy presence to fall on our hearts and draw us back to you, wiser to recognize the Devils Junk Mail being sent to us. And cause us to reject it…

 

According to your word spoken in 2 Ch 7:14 which declares:  if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

 

I see how what I need to do – restore to me the joy of your salvation in Jesus name

 

Now everyone please feel free to personalize this prayer for yourself…

 

Lord Jesus, forgive me- for I have not been humble before you - but been agreeing with the devil’s junk mail. It tells me to think wrong about you and others and myself. It caused me to act in pride. Forgive me of this in Jesus name.

 

Lord Jesus help me seek and know you and trust you. Guide me with your Holy Word – teach me from the bible as my daily bread I need. Let you Holy Spirit Resurrection Power fall on me again and again to keep me humble before you and to know you better each day.

 

Lord Jesus, I call on your name, I need to turn away from reading the devils junk mail! I am a mess and have so many wicked thoughts, and ways plaguing me. Reveal to me anything I am blind too and need to deal with that I cannot see so I can turn away from it and set me free of it no matter the pain…In Jesus Name

 

I am guilty of twisting your word to suite my own ways. I misrepresented you so much by how I acted (think on this for a minute). Wash me in the blood of Jesus so I will be clean.

 

Help me – send for your Holy Spirit power to empower my moral compass to do more-right and less and less wrong so my heart and soul will be made excellent whole, balanced, and sound - fill me now with thy resurrection power.  In Jesus Name… Fill me now…

 


Witchcraft – How real is it?

Witchcraft – How real is it?

By Bryan W Melvin

All rights reserved

 

 

Witchcraft is a series bloody business. So much so that God himself pronounced in Ezekiel 13:18-23 what he thinks about it, what it does, and judgment against those who practice it. However, in modern era, witchcraft is passed off as a harmless, toothless, just a mere fantasy of imagined power.

 

Despite this many politicians and world elites practice it in such places as the Boeheim Grove or join in spirit cooking ceremonies as John Podesta’s email points out. We see those in the music industry and Hollywood openly proclaiming the benefits of Kabbala and the occult. Recent survey discovered that there are now more witches than Presbyterians in the USA. Covens advertise monthly meetings to curse President Donald Trump and those who support him.

 

Yet, the majority of the modern church pays no attention to witchcraft at all. The rebellion it produces is rarely addressed these days. Mainline Christians groups focus more on distractions than saving souls and healing the broken heart as Isaiah 61:1-4 points out. Because of this, people contact Christians like myself concerning what to do about it and how to deal with it.

 

The effects of Witchcraft

 

Ezekiel 13:18-23 reveals what occult sorcery actually-does and pulls no punches because it hunts for souls to ensnare them, distract, deceive, and steal from them. Witchery puts a pallor veil over the mind that blinds people away from how close Jesus really is to set them free. It can kill those whom they view as a threat before one’s time. Sorcery conjures malevolent entities who masquerade as angels of light to do one’s bidding, however, with a cost to the user. It keeps people in mental slavery.

 

God provides to His People the means to combat this

 

God is serious about this subject and provides to his people the means to combat and stop it. Yes, witchcraft is real. It is no longer to be feared nor should anyone one ‘obsess’ over it. Why - Jesus defeated all the works of the evil one on the cross and by his resurrection. By these we can wage spiritual war (Eph 6:10-18) because, now, we have his power on loan to us to fight as it is written:

 

Luke 10:18-20, “And He said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven." NKJV

 

The enemy likes to put blinding veils over people and tell them they do not have such power. If you practiced witchcraft in any form – that tie needs to be broken, repented from, and renounced, and all use stopped!

 

In Acts 19:19 it tells how, “…many of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of silver.” NKJV

 

That is how serious this is to God and it applies today. So, if you feel you are under bad spiritual attack from witchcraft, I suggest Looking at Ezekiel 13:18-23 and see what God says about those practicing it and the spirits they conjure. God himself is very serious about this!  

 

Jesus in Luke 4:1-13 quoted the word of God against the foe of our souls. We are called to walk as he (1 John 2:6). Therefore, you can quote the bible against the dark forces too. Ezekiel 13:20-23 presents such verse one can also quote to resist the devil so he flees from you (1 Peter 5:5-11).

 

Ezekiel 13:18-23 the Lord is speaking to those who practice witchcraft and how to stop it

 

Let’s read these verses verse by verse and note the comments between verses and may it help you resist the devil and he will flee from you:

 

Eze 13:18and say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "Woe to the (ones) who sew magic charms on their sleeves and make veils for the heads of people of every height to hunt souls! Will you hunt the souls of My people, and keep yourselves alive?

 

Verse 18 - some translations use the word ‘women’ in text but in both Hebrew and Greek LXX the word can also express both genders referring to witches, warlocks, and all occult practitioners who use magic - magick spells-charms that place spiritual conjured veils over people.

 

2 Co 4:3-4 mentions one such a veil that blinds people to think God is weak and cannot save.  Such veils are placed over people to produce thoughts of doom, gloom hopelessness, fear, lust, self-sabotage – list goes on and on.

 

Verse 18 goes on explaining that such folks go about hunting souls and fear no consequences for this. Hunting souls is a reflection of triple goddess worship. Artimus aka Ishtar, is called a huntress whose avatar icon is usually a woman with a drawn bow and arrow with some sort of bird or owl nearby. Ishtar is a fallen angel and a prophesizing spirit as well too.

 

Aside note – witches and warlocks are into triple goddess worship and thus hunt souls – strong believers or weak ones to stop them cold. Please note that Nimrod, who represents the sun deity Apollo aka Nergal, hunts souls. Also Ishtar, a warrior and love goddess, also hunts for souls. So, these two fallen entities instruct their followers to do likewise.  Now on to verse 19.   

 

Eze 13:19 And will you profane Me among My people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, killing people who should not die, and keeping people alive who should not live, by your lying to My people who listen to lies?"

 

Verse 19 – The use of barley and bread suggest ritual spell casting and sex magick practices for the purposes of killing a person before one’s time, believing lies, and to keep their allies and followers alive, in power, or for mere pleasure of keeping someone some sort of mental slavery.

 

Now look and read what God says he is going to about this:

 

Eze 13:20 'Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I am against your magic charms by which you hunt souls there like birds. I will tear them from your arms, and let the souls go, the souls you hunt like birds.

 

Eze 13:21, I will also tear off your veils and deliver My people out of your hand, and they shall no longer be as prey in your hand. Then you shall know that I am the LORD

 

Eze 13:22, "Because with lies you have made the heart of the righteous sad (meaning - brokenhearted, disheartened, cowed, despairing, discouraged, etc), whom I have not made sad; and you have strengthened the hands of the wicked, so that he does not turn from his wicked way to save his life.

 

Eze 13:23, Therefore you shall no longer envision futility nor practice divination; for I will deliver My people out of your hand, and you shall know that I am the LORD." ' "

 

What can we do about this?

 

If you are under attack of witchcraft or suspect it, suggest you pray, without fear, verses 20 thru 23 over your circumstances. Start quoting verses 20-23 and remind the demonic what God thinks about this and the attacks you are experiencing; however, the Holy Spirit leads you.

 

In verse 23 – the Lord promises what to those afflicted by witchcraft?

 

Now, look at Matthew 6:13 pray this over yourself as well everday…

 

Mat 6:13, “And do not lead us into temptation but deliver us (me) from the evil one.”

 

Remind the enemy of Ezekiel 13:20-23 in Jesus name!

 

Lastly, I suggest going to my Prayer Template Page(s) and look thru the prayers located there. Look for one that fits your circumstances. Feel free to change and adapt these to your situation to be forgiven and cleansed, set free from any wound that the demonic host sniffs out in order to attack folks with. to have in common with you to use against you.

 

This is a good place to start and abates and stops the attacks. Also, do not forget to praise and thank the Lord too!

Part One: Queen of Serpents the Day Demoness

Part One: Queen of Serpents the Day Demoness

By B W Melvin

Electronic Copyright 2019

 


Do you find yourself being blocked, obstructed, in life? Are freak accidents becoming commonplace in your life or in your family? Have strange and prolonged illnesses keep after you no matter how you pray or do? Are you becoming fearful, losing confidence, or feel like giving up, like what’s the use?



Are you isolating yourself more and more? experiencing unnatural exhaustion? Do your thoughts or dreams seem to ruminate on defeat, torture, sexual nature, or just ramble on and on?



If so, you are under attack by one of the most - nasty demonic spirits out there…



Let me tell you, you may not be dealing with some lower order demonic host but rather a head ruling principality who is over their own military hierarchy that it sends out to do its bidding 


 

The Apostle Paul describes such military hierarchy in Ephesians 6:12



“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.” NKJV


This Military Hierarchy consist of... 



1-principalities, (despotisms, evil despotic rulers over large areas)

2-powers, (authorities of the unseen realm)

3-rulers of the darkness of this age, (Mighty powers - Mater Spirits of darkness)

4-Spiritual hosts (evil spirit) forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (spiritual realm).


1-Principalities, (despotisms, evil rulers) are the head leaders – the Five Star generals (over an entire theater of operations in charge of all armies controlling armies from other nations) Bent on universal control of heaven by battling on earth. (I use the terms General for the readers understanding)

Under them are

2-Powers, authorities of the unseen realm liken to Four Star Generals and three Star Generals plus their staff. Four Star Generals command an entire army in a single geographic area divided into Corps. Three Star generals command Corps. A Corps is made up of several divisions (or legions). Carries out orders for world control, domination in order to overthrow God in heaven.

Under them are

3-Rulers of the darkness of this age, Mighty powers - Master Spirits of darkness (Two and One Star Generals and their staffs. Two Star Generals are divisions commanders. Under them are One Star Generals are brigade commanders that make up a division. Bent on carrying out fighting orders for world and universal control/domination.

 Under them are

4-Spiritual hosts (evil spirit) forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (spiritual realm or the spirits behind the stars, constellations, and planets – Utely’s Commentary). Are the all Colonels, Majors, Captains, Lieutenants, Sergeants, Corporals, and all lower ranks. To the troops used take over, enforce control and dominate an area – subdue it – pacify it into submission.

 


Do you realize that the ancient pagan deities of Canaan and Mesopotamia help identify this Ephesians 6:12 crowd who is out for blood – yours and mine! They are relentless foes and Paul warns us that there is a spiritual war going on and ignoring it will not make it go away.


 

Well, we are in a wrestling match - assailed by one very nasty spirit in control of a system.



Who is it?      Answer -      Ashtoreth –       Queen of serpents, the day demoness



Here are a few facts about the Queen of serpents, the day demoness

 


Ashtoreth is leading commanding strongman over other commanders in the devil’s army, one of the leading 7 fallen ones (gods) Who Decree in the ancient Mesopotamian pantheon. These seven are the inner circle of the devil. Top commanders over the dark armies. The 5 stars… Principalities



Ashtoreth goes by other names as well: to the Canaanites as ASTARTE, to the Sumerians, INANNA, to the Babylonians, ISHTAR to the Assyrians and the Akkadians, ASHTART, ASHTORETH, ASHERAH, and ASTORETH, to the Egyptians, ISIS, ASHET AND ASET, to the Phoenicians, TANIT-ASHTART and ASHTAROTH. The Ugaritic name was ANAT. Aphrodite (Greek Love Goddess) Cybele (Roman Mother Earth Goddess) Venus (Roman Love Goddess) In Other pagan religions known also as Yin, Oshun, Pomba, Gira, Yemaya, and Cletic as Cerridwen (1) (7)



Ashtoreth is Part of the Moon god triad: Nanna-Moon, Ishtar-Venus, and Utu/Nergal/Apollo (Greek) – Sun.  Military symbol for this group is associated with Horns and crescent moon shape, and serpents.



Identified as the goddess of love/sex, beauty, war, fertility – dispenser of secret knowledge – holds the tablets of destines to control destines of men/women – by the caldron of knowledge in Celtic lore. (1) (7)



 Responsible for war, death, seduction, beauty, self-glorification and adornment, giver of wisdom and secret knowledge from the gods, secret writings, revelations, and instruction into occult secrets and the handling and conjuring of serpents/snakes (1)



Ashtoreth was known as the queen of heaven, whore of Babylon. Josephus in Apion 1, 18, Antiquities viii. 3, 1 state that Ashtoreth was ‘always virgin’ betrothed to Baal. An aside note here - the meaning of the name Jezebel refers to chaste bride of Baal.



 Ashtoreth is also known as the huntress, the young warrior maiden of triple goddess worship.



More Facts about Ashtoreth/Aphrodite/Ishtar: The Book of Ceremonial Magic by Arthur Edward states it is not a female but first appears as male then appears as female. Enforces all forms of sexual deviance and transgenderism. It seeks to dominate and control and make all submit to the chief adversary and it self. By using sex appeal, inspiration, sorcery, astrology, herbs, science, poetry, spells, knowledge, wisdom, past lives, regeneration, and divination such as - visions and Prophecy designed to seduce in order to kill, rob, and destroy. (1)

 


Rank according to occultist as the Grand Duke of the Western Regions of Hell… the Western regions refers to waters of the abyss or abuz in occult circles. (1)



Titled - the Crown Princess Astaroth who is a Guidance Counselor for both Demons and humans. Deals in mostly human affairs. Speaks seductively to lure away by preying on meeting and actualizing human desires. The hallmark of this spirit - puffs up mind, glorifies body, and justifies seeking glory in attaining power to maintain some form of control. (1)



The Occult teaches that Astaroth/Ashtoreth is Known as the Day demoness (giver of secret of light) and commands 40 demonic legions…it is interesting to note about a legion. (1)



A Roman legion at its peak had approx. 6000 men in it. Four Legions made up one army. Assigned to each army of 4 legions were added 2 auxiliary legions of Non-Roman Citizens foreigners allied with Rome which could be passed around between armies per military need. So, each Army had a total of 6 legions (36,000 troops in each army).

  


Astaroth commands 40 legions. So, his command consists of 10 armies of around 240,000 to 360,000 total demonic minions - Jezebel like spirits - that reflect his/her character traits, to take out men and women of God by all means possible. It can call on more Auxiliaries as needed as well. These forces are both fallen angels and demons along with human host to operate out of. (1)



Human agents under its influence are marked by an over inflated ego of self-importance and self-aggrandizement. They have a marked love of self, a hubristic narcissism that makes them cynical know it alls. They dazzle - seduce by their revelations in order to collect souls for Ishtar/Ashtoreth.

 


Ashtoreth/Astaroth is known to occultist as The Treasurer of Hell – the collector of treasures/booty for hell. Known as a collection agent of souls.  (4)



Planet identifier is Venus. Animal Icon is the Cobra or Viper: Metal is Copper. Element identifier is earth - to guide planet Earth to submit to a king/idea/ be under control dominated (2) 



The Zodiac Position is: 25-29 degrees of Taurus and 10 - 20 degrees of Capricorn (2) - The constellation Capricorn in ancient Sumerian was associated with the planet Saturn (Enlil), and also related to the Mesopotamian god Enki = called the goatfish... ie Pan – known as the Keeper of the Gates (of hell). Pan’s Grotto at base of Mt Hermon is where Jesus told Peter the gates of hell will not prevail…. Too bad church does not teach this stuff - see notes in part three of this article to find out how the Chaldean Numbers 10 and 20 relate to the bringing forth the antichrist...



Traditional Colors for Big Jezebel/Ashtoreth: According to “The Wiccan Hand Book, by Ellen Holland page 238,” Pink is an angelic color. It is scared to Aphrodite/ Venus (who is the same as Ashtoreth). It is used for spells and angel magic, and to attract loyalty, service, friendship, by stirring up all emotional need mechanisms to be controlled.



Other colors are mint green, red, silver, white, and copper, and various calming blues. Candle colors known to occultist for Ashtoreth/Ishtar are: pink, green, red, and silver (white).

 


Priestess of Astarte/Ishtar/Ashtoreth – Are often told to dye their hair in pink by an entity, or use any of these other colors, to mark them as special messengers on earth to humanity – to bring forth new light, revelation, and secret info from the gods for humanities good related to the color meaning worn to lure people into its seductive web.



Pink is associated with softness to let one’s guard down, and is used to hide its warrior nature from its victims. By seducing to control them by manipulation, words, decreeing judgments, threats, war, intimidation.



Pink, a diluted form of red worn by such hide its red side which is out for war, blood.  Cross it and the war comes out in threats of ‘do no touch the lords anointed – don’t question it – or else!’  It seeks to silence God’s people that oppose or expose it.



Also, the spokespersons for Ashtoreth use multiple peacock feathers with their eye’s. These multiple feathers represent the all-seeing eye of Hera – mother of the gods known in triple goddess lore. The multiple Peacock feather eyes represent wisdom, secret knowledge, seduction, power.



Ashtoreth’s spokespersons also use very soft sensual seductive blue colors, that mimics God’s heavenly blue color often surrounded by a vibrant white-gold - like the – morning and evening star Venus shines at crack of dawn and evening. They wear these colors and use symbols associated with the Moon god’s triad – solar disk – Gold circle – 6 or 7 pointed crowns, that often represent Saturn’s eye or the black sun symbol. In other words, Ashtoreth and Saturn (aka Enlil) work together.


Ashtoreth uses multiple peacock feather eyes, while Saturn/ Moloch/ Chronos uses one feather eye to represent Saturn’s’ eye symbol/black sun symbol of the occult world indicating one follows Saturn.



Ashtoreth/Aphrodite/Ishtar is also related to the waters from the abuz/abyss – likewise – associated with water in nature itself such as beaches, or near clean, natural pools of water and waterfalls. Also, areas such as bathrooms, saunas and pools used for the beautification and honor the extreme glorification of the body. (3) (4)



This spirit is a fallen angel, a watcher, and controls a system



Revelation 17:5 this spirit is identified as the whore of Babylon riding on the beast and as a warrior against God’s people. Rev 18:3 reveal the system of the world she controls of merchandising people, feeds of greed, fear of not being beautiful, feeds of revenge and of controlling others by all manner of warfare, character assassination, political means, etc.  



This spirit has taken over the tasks of Azazel, who is mentioned in the book of Enoch and also mentioned in the bible in Lev 16:8-26 due to its banishment in the hell. Thus, it is also a seducer to religious ideas and seeks to blend occult practices into the church and exalt one world religion.



Next to the devil himself, this spirit, is in charge of the other 5 head principalities and they all work together in the affairs of humanity to bring forth chaos, so their golden age order can arise again thru their messiah, the anti-Christ, on earth in one last attempt to overthrow God’s throne. (1)




Revelation 2:20 mentions that it is a prophesying spirit for the dispensing of secret knowledge (3)

 


Prophecies and visions from this being often include an extreme overkill use of waterfalls – rushing waters, pools, seas imagery in their prophesy’s way beyond any scope of reality. This is a dead giveaway that someone is under its influence. To occultist, these water features are used in its visions that reveal secret knowledge from the sweet water of the abuz (hell) to addict people to its control.



This new revelation and secret knowledge (light) lures and seduces one slowly away from the Lord God Almighty by, often, appearing to be from and loyal to God, so a Christian slowly relies more and more on the spokesperson than on the indwelling Holy Spirit as Jesus taught (Acts 16:18 tells a story of this luring until Paul cast it out of the person). (3)



The spokespersons of Ashtoreth lay claim that they are God’s favored ones sent on a mission to reveal secrets from God’s throne or heaven to the masses. Anyone who dares question them is touching God’s anointed – them and thus incur God’s wrath despite the bible phrase – touch not the Lord’s anointed – refers to King David’s persecutor, King Saul, not David himself. (3)



They dispense the waters of the abyss in secret new revelations, in fact, the same that caused Azazel to be banished to hell for as disclosed in 1 Enoch 9:5, “Thou hast seen what Azazel has done, how he has taught every species of iniquity upon the earth and has disclosed to the world all the secret things which are done in the heavens.”



Ashtoreth has taken over Azazel’s task while he is bound in the abyss and thus shares the same trait through its spokes persons in revealing the mysteries of heaven or God, which are perversions to cause human beings to transgress against God without realizing it and get them into an elitist form of pride. (1) (3) (4)



Folks, these sorts of spokes people will manifest more and more in the last days! But be of good cheer, in Isaiah 44:27, God promises to dry up these waters…so folks stop drinking daily to rely on the polluted waters of the abyss. Last days call will go forth for a reason:



Rev 18:4, And I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.”



We have God’s word on this. Activate it! Pray Isaiah 44:27 over yourself and those around you!
