What is Renewing of the Mind? By Minister Speed

There is no Christian success or progress after you get born again without the renewing of your mind.

The sad part is if you get born again and go to a church that doesn't teach the word of God then your mind will stay the same, and your mind will probably end up relapsing into some other things that were worse than you've done previously done in life.

My book and my teaching are all standing on "How to Renew the Mind,"through bible teaching.

What is renewing the mind?

It's when you take your way of thinking and beliefs and place them upon the word of God.

You know your mind is renewed when your thinking is aligned up precisely to what God is thinking.

What God said is right, you believe is right, and what God said is wrong you believe is wrong. It's that simple people.

When you Renew your mind and it's aligned to what God says then you are Holy.

Many folk have been waiting all their life to understand this concept of holiness. They think that wearing certain clothes, or the music you listen to or no make up is holiness, but the truth is Holiness is a direct result of having the mind of Christ.

The bible states in "Be ye Holy even as He (God) is Holy. There it is right there. It is being of One mind with Him who has all power.

You see to renew your mind Is to achieve holiness. You do this through the reading and application of God's word.

Remember the bible says without holiness no man can see the lord.

If you're not in the word then it is impossible to have a renewed mind. You can get born again and your life will remain the same with the same addicted desires and behaviors that you had before you got born again if you don't not renew your mind.

This new book " A Declaration to the Spiritual Soldier has been developed with this one thought in mine. To enable you to study the word of God and apply it's principle to TODAY'S problems and issues so that we can move forward in God's Kingdom.

Strategies for Spiritual Warfare By Minister Speed

I've learned these principles as a result of being in a constant state of warfare and my subsequent recovery. My new book entitled “The Declaration to the Spiritual Soldier details the principles by which we stand against the enemy and destroy his works.

 

When the Mind of a believer has been RENEWED.  He/she will be able to defeat the enemy and speak life to others.  Remember that no weapon FORMED against you shall prosper.  The word did not say that the enemy wouldn't attack but the word said it would not prosper.  The word prosper means, To make steady progress, to be successful.  Most Christian get upset when it appears that they have been defeated when if they has just kept their eyes on the prize they would have made it from the bridge of reasoning to the shore of faith.

 

Remember the story of Job in the Holy Scriptures.  Satan was ALLOWED by God Himself to TEST Job.  All his property was stolen.  All 10 of his children were killed, and all his servants were taken by force, but Job had a RENEWED mind.  He knew that if God be for him, who could be against him.  He knew that ALL things work together for good to them that love God, to them that are called according to His purpose.  Saints Job as a man was and is no different than you or I.  It is time to stand.

 

 Strategies For Spiritual Warfare

                                

Father we pray that you will move by your Spirit and that minds are changed and lives are saved.  We pray that you direct our thinking and divorce us from any seducing or demonic spirit.

Father in the Mighty and Majestic name of Jesus we are now willing that the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all unrighteousness and by faith we renounce any stronghold in our life that is of the enemy.

Seducing Spirits & Subliminal Messages By Minister Speed

Subliminal message – A signal or message embedded into the context of another medium.  

Subliminal perception is a deliberate process created by communication technicians, whereby you receive and respond to information and instructions without being aware of it. Messages in the form of printed words, pictures or voices presented either very rapidly or very obscurely bypass your conscious awareness. 

This occurs through music, T.V. and any medium picked up by the brain.  Please see  video below as a sleeping baby is awakened and controlled by music he has grown accustom to through his own parent:

Anything consciously perceived can be evaluated, criticized, discussed, argued, and possibly rejected. Anything programmed subliminally to your sub consciousness meets no resistance. Just like the baby above had no defense and was controlled by music, this subliminal information is stored in your brain and capable of influencing your judgment, behavior and attitudes.  

The most common subliminal message is S E X. Since almost all people have a strong affinity to sex, a sexual subliminal message would be the most effective one. Embedded on a certain product it's supposed to trigger viewers’ attention, emotions and stir up affinity in him toward the product. 

Unfortunately, as you're going to see for yourself in this presentation, this principle has been heavily misused, abused and misapplied. Blatant sexuality on the verge of pornography can be easily found in public advertising, family movies, cartoons and children products leading to the catastrophic rise of every known sexual perversion and diseases known to man.    

The Bible calls these SEDUCING SPIRITS. Before we begin I would like to say as a Minister to the Lord Jesus Christ I have always wondered why Christians who claim longevity in Christ always appear to be interested in those things that are of the world. Whether on Facebook or any other entity “my people” appear to respond to topics that are laden with worldly ideology.

Mention Jesus Christ or ask these same folk to take a serious stance in their faith and they are nowhere to be seen. 

I now know that the seduction from demons and evil spirits are at an all-time high and the MEDIA or Multi *Ethnic * Destruction* In * America, has gain a strangle hold on this society and world and unless the Holy Spirit intervene even the Elect will be lost.    

Most Christians with some level of background teachings in the Scriptures agree that we are involved in spiritual warfare and that in the end times that battle will intensify.  That belief, however, is often a general acknowledgement that Satan is alive and trying to deceive the Saints.  

We pray that everyone within the range of this page will see the truth and make a stand for Jesus Christ and wake up and speak out against the things that are being promoted especially with our youth. 

That they will have ears to hear and eyes to see the devastation that has taken place even within the Christian community as those who profess Christ take a pro stance for issues such as homosexuality, abortion, same sex marriages, images on T.V, and esp. our children.  

Prayer to come against seducing Spirits

Father we pray that you will move by your Spirit and that minds are changed and lives are saved.  We pray that you direct our thinking and divorce us from any seducing or demonic spirit.  

Father in the Mighty and Majestic name of Jesus we are now willing that the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all unrighteousness and by faith we renounce any stronghold in our life that is of the enemy.  

We are committed to remaining vigilant and steadfast in these last days and to remove ourselves from anything we know that you would not approve of.

We give you the glory and the honor, in the Name of Jesus. Amen 

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT SEDUCING SPIRIT
  

1 Timothy 4:1 - Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;(KJV)   

And the Spirit expressly speaketh, that in latter times shall certain fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and teachings of demons (Young's Literal)  

But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons, (American Standard Version)  

The NIV version brings an evocative shade of meaning to the translation of the verse about the nature of these "spirits":

   

The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 

The Spirit makes it clear that as time goes on, some are going to give up on the faith and chase after demonic illusions put forth by professional liars.  

I think the verses make clear several things: 

1. God's Spirit is the one who is speaking loudly and pointedly.  

2. His call is one of divine warning for those living in the last days.  

3. There will be Christians in the faith who will depart from it terribly.  

4. They will embrace error so terrible that it marks their break from A faith the Spirit recognizes as true.  

5. These "departed" ones take heed to TWO sources of error.  

6. One comes from "seducing spirits" and the other is that of "doctrines of demons"  

7. But both sources of error originate from a spiritual perspective. 

Here are some of the Seducing and Demonic forces we face by their names: 

Spirit of Fear  

Spirit of Prejudice (Hate)  

Spirit of Whoredoms (Sexual
Immorality)  

Spirits of Division (Disrespect, Disaffection, Disunity)  

Haughty (Arrogant) Spirits  

Spirit of Addiction  

Spirit of Homosexuality  

Alcoholic Spirits  

Spirit of Divination  

Spirit of Doubt  

Spirit of Greed  

Spirit of Heaviness (Depression, Discouragement, Hopelessness)  

Perverse Spirits  

Spirit of Infirmity  

Spirit of Envy 

Spirit of Jealousy  

Lying Spirits 

These spirits run rampant not only in this world but seek to take a stronghold in the Church of God in Christ.   As I mentioned in one of my previous note entitled “Strategies For Spiritual warfare” we must take a proactive stance to identify, resist, rebuke, and overcome these cohorts and Satan himself.

Here are a few simple principles to follow in the name of Jesus:

1. Establish your legal rights and authority in the name of Jesus.   

2. Use the name of Jesus, always recognize where the power comes from.   

3. Determine the strongman and subordinate spirits.  

4. Bond their works, and remind them that they are part of the footstool of Jesus.   

5. Remind spirits that they are helpless and there works have been destroyed by Jesus.  1 John 3:8.   

6. Loose every sign, symptom, and condition associated with their presence.   

7. Release the kingdom of heaven counterpart.   

They are: 

   Authority

   Dominions  

   Virtues  

   Powers 

   Principilities

   Archangels 

   Angels 

   Seraphims 

   Cherubs 

   Thrones 

 8. Reinforce your prayer life with fasting. 

 9. Remain submitted to the spirit of the Lord.
10. Study the word of God to show thyself approved unto God.  

11. Use the word. Jesus always spoke the word first. Use The Bible Doctrine. 

12. Stay under your covering with your spiritual leader for accountability.  

This message is a warning of the Spirit to the CHURCH ABOUT the horrible conditions of the CHURCH in what He "expressly" warns are in a period of time called "the latter times." From these observations, I think, we gain a LOT of light about how the Body of Christ is threatened by spiritual deceptions that His Spirit plainly and unblinkingly says will cause people to "depart from the faith.

" And the most sobering thought of all is that this will occur WITHIN the Church in the last days that there will be Christian brothers and sisters in our fellowships who will embrace deceptive teachings introduced through entirely spiritual means. 

Remember that there are three types of spirits. They are the Holy Spirit, the Human Spirit, and the Demonic Spirits. The reference to "seducing spirits" can refer to both the carnal, natural mindset of the religious HUMAN spirit as well as the demonic, and the reference to "doctrines of demons" one that refers to those foisted upon the human spirit through direct demonic influence. 

The Bible has MUCH to say about the profoundly subtle and deceptive nature of persuasive human reasoning and philosophy that gains a following, as well as those things plainly introduced to us by demonic influence.   

Men and women can be "seduced" in both social and doctrinal dimensions, and as the old saying says "sin always loves company." I have seen this again and again and again especially in American Media which has introduce every evil known to man as something “to be desired on T.V and Radio.”   

Basically on this page we are going to introduce Media Based Entities that are the “Norm” for Television and show you the subliminal and seductive spirit behind them. 

We have DECLARED WAR through Jesus Christ against the FALSE PASTORS that teach Gods’ people lies and the American Media which works hand in hand with them to destroy The Christian Lifestyle, the American Culture, and our Children. 

I intentially left out the definitive information to the names of the heavenly counterparts and the seducing spirits.  This was so that you that are interested could "Study to show thyself approved unto God."  Questions are always welcome.  God Bless!!!! 

Be sure to post your comment, prayers, and thoughts. God bless.

Pt. 2 A Christian Perspective, A Year Without Television By Minister Speed

                          

Morals and values, commonly accepted beliefs of right and wrong, are reflected in a person's actions, thinking, and emotional reactions. The American Academy of Pediatrics notes repeated viewing of violent television shows changes one's views and increases antisocial attitudes. The American Association for Cancer Research says adolescents who frequently see smoking on television are more likely to smoke.

I think TV and pop culture in general does influence what people perceive being normal and average.  People's moral values are formed in part by what they consider "normal". Things that people consider "normal" and "moral" today might have seemed outrageous a hundred years ago. Morals are created in the context we live in, which is not the same for everyone.  (For example, there are those that consider viewing porn "normal", and there are those who don't. I imagine you could find those who consider stripping no big deal, a harmless diversion enjoyed by "normal" men, and you will no doubt find people who find strip clubs immoral.  

Today's TV programming: glorifies crime, violence, sex, deceitfulness, and greed.  It glorifies the police state, gangsters, scams, swindles, dysfunctional society, dysfunctional families, money worship, and views moreover the constant police state verses the criminal elements and murders as if only these awful things are the only thing that the TV viewer wants.

Look at it this way, that old liar Satan is constantly looking to influence your beliefs. He is constantly looking for a way into your head and heart, constantly seeking to make you think that selfishness (sin) is normal and acceptable and you shouldn't trouble your little head about it. He is constantly trying to make you question God. His favorite tactic is to ask you, "Did God really say that?" whether by asking you directly as he did to Eve in the garden.  Satan is constantly seeking to undermine the government of God and the battle field is taking place in the minds and hearts of mankind So the wise Christian learns to ask if there are any of those Satanic messages or questions in TV.  

The answer would have to be yes.  There are so many you almost can't count them all.   TV does affect your moral values at the very deepest core. It makes you question whether your morals and values are worth having simply by constantly questioning their worth, constantly questioning whether they are moral.  And by affecting them in that manner, you accept it without question.  It is so subtle that you don't even notice it is happening. I mean, the very existence of this message  is proof that it does, because TV has taught you that there has to be scientific proof that it is affecting your morals whereas you would have known without proof that it was in times past, simply because you would have recognized the constant questioning of your values and the constant attack they were under.

If that isn't enough to convince you, then look at the TV programs themselves. TV producers keep pushing the envelope in the direction of sin, but slowly enough that you accept that drift. Fifty years ago, you didn't swear on TV. You didn't show couple sleeping in the same bed or a pregnant woman, not because a married couple sharing a bed or a pregnant woman is morally wrong, but because children deserved to be innocent and families deserved to be allowed when and how they wanted to tell their children about sex. That discussion was not to be forced upon a family at the discretion of a television program. You certainly didn't push something more adult upon a family's children than sharing a bed or pregnancy. Over the last fifty years the envelope has been pushed until the graphic sexual discussion that like Two and a Half Men is allowed on TV.  Now we have to discuss graphic sex with our young children, or turn the TV off. Can you guess which I've done?

Over 6 hours a day are spent by the average American family watching movies, television or videos. Dick Rolfe, movie and television specialist and head of the Dove Foundation (an organization which identifies movies and videos meeting family standards), remarks "…when you spend that much time watching something, you have just developed new role models and a new window on life.  I think that with the destructive value of some television and movies… [viewers] get the wrong impression and a distorted view of what life is really like. 

Dr. Ted Baehr of the Christian-based “Movie Guide” comments, "It certainly is causing us to have a society that's being corrupted and cancerously destroyed in terms of its moral values."  According to Rolfe, arguments about the harmlessness of movies on our society don't ring true when compared with over 6,000 independent studies that prove exactly the contrary. Recently, the cable television industry sponsored a multiple-year study performed by Media Scope.

The study conclusively proved through gathering those existing studies, plus the addition of its own independent that, in fact, art does lead life - that life does follow art and society does reflect the values of film and television.  However, is decadence in the media the main cause of our society's moral degeneration? Or are there other involved factors being overlooked?

Dr. Michael Sunman, coordinator of The Center for Communications Policy at the University of California at Los Angeles, is doing a three year analysis of the effects of violence on television. Dr. Sunman has lived and taught in Japan and other Asian countries and offers his perspective on the effects of media: I would never want to say that the mass media does not have a powerful influence and effect on people. It does. But that having been said, it is much too simplistic just to blame all of this on TV. And we see that very much when we look at other cultures such as Japan.

The media in Japan is more violent that it is in the United States. But notice the factor such as the structure of the family. In the United States, 30% of children are born out of wedlock. Among African Americans the figure is up to 70%. Compare that with Japan where the figure is about 1%. Teenage pregnancy rates are directly related to that. In the United States, the teenage pregnancy rates are 16 times what they are in Japan. And if you look at Japanese society, the rates of violent crime are much lower than they are in the United States. Murder rates and rates of rape are 1/10th to 1/20th of what they are in the United States. Just blaming film and television for all these problems is much too simplistic if we look at other cultures.

Why does Japan appear to have so much success is controlling the media to not affect its impressionable viewers? Dr. Sunman believes it is because the family structure in Japan is very important. The government has gone out of the way in realizing that an intact family unit is a very important thing to maintain. Governmental policies foster it. Tax policies encourage it. University and school acceptance programs encourage it.

Children born out of wedlock can have a very difficult time in Japanese society. Schools discriminate against illegitimate children and will refuse acceptance. There continues to be a sense of shame in Japan in looking upon children born out of wedlock. Japan has an intact family structure and that is incredibly important in terms of why the rate of violent crime in Japan is incredibly low.  

Why is a more intact family less susceptible to violence portrayed in media? There are multiple factors, but perhaps the most relevant one is parental involvement in children's lives whereas in America it is commonplace to have upward of 70% of some American Families have single parent household. This anomaly is look upon as the norm and carries with it no social stigma nor is there a concerted effort by local, state, and governmental agencies to correct this issue through National policies.

Child psychologist Dr. Debra Kowalski emphasizes:

If your child is watching television and you see something inappropriate that's coming around the bend and you interfere with that and stop it, you've given that child a very important message: you've taught them that that is not appropriate for them. If a parent goes with a child to a movie theater and there's something inappropriate that's coming on the screen and the parent says, "this isn't for you to see, let's leave," and takes the child out, that's a profound message to the child.  A good value system is extremely important in children's lives, and it must be consistently applied - not just for children, but for adults.

Media watchdog Ted Baehr echoes the need to reinforce proper use of media.

The most important step in helping your children to really be able to use the media properly and to become your allies in the battle in this tidal wave of media that's happening is to help them understand what your values are - to help them understand the difference between good and evil, and what you believe about what makes a man worthy and humble and kind and loving and generous. You need to teach them the things you want them to model. What is the worldview? We live in a real world, created by a real God. Those things are very important. The next step is to get them to understand the media that they're watching by asking the right questions. 'Well, who is the hero? Who is the villain? What is the worldview?'

Dr. Kowalski believes that spiritual values are just not discussed in our society, but that must change. After all, what is the most important thing for us to be concerned about? Spiritual values.  Taking control of our TV set will not eliminate the moral issues from our lives. Everyone needs a proper value system in order to deal with the media and other aspects of life. And that means recognizing that it's not our personal desires that determine what's right or wrong.

Many in our society today have been taught that there are no moral absolutes. God clearly disagrees. He calls us to live righteously and guide our families in everything we do - even watching TV. There are absolutes and they are outlined for us in the Bible. Based on my many years of study, I and many committed Christians firmly believe that Christians need to "live up to what Christ is calling us to do and be… There are absolutes - absolutely, without question."

Our Savior has given us His words about the way into eternal life, yet most do not understand His words. “Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, few there be that find it.” HE has warned us that few find this way into eternal life; and the great reason that few find this way is that few really want to give up the love of the world and what is in it, and, because so many love the world and what is in it, they are cut off from the Spirit of God!

Therefore, because of their love for the worldly things, they cannot simultaneously love the Lord our God with all of their hearts, minds, souls and strength, which is the first greatest commandment. “For, no servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other, or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon!”(Luke 16:13).

Most want to mix the things of the world with their spiritual walks and as a result there are great, great numbers, who are lukewarm in their spiritual walks! You must surely know what our Savior says about those, who are lukewarm in their spiritual walk: “I know thy works, that thou are neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou are LUKEWARM, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth (Rev. 3:16).”

Oh, Lord, our Mighty King; have mercy on your people for they are stalked from every side. Have mercy on their souls, oh Blessed Savior; for the time of great travail is upon us all. My brothers and sisters the word is clear.  The way into salvation is a strait and narrow way.  There is no other way.  If you continue to pollute your soul with things of this world, you will become lukewarm in your spiritual walks, or will become totally cut off from the Spirit of God.  

YOU CANNOT LOVE THE WORLD AND WHAT IS IN IT AND EXPECT SALVATION. YOU WILL NOT ACHIEVE IT. YOU WILL NOT MARRY OUR SAVIOR   YOU WILL NOT BECOME ONE OF HIS SONS OR DAUGHTERS. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY INHERITANCE IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD.  FEW, FEW, FEW, FEW WANT TO GIVE UP THE WORLD. WHAT DO YOU WANT? YOUR ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDLY! THEY TELL WHAT IS IN YOUR HEART.
