Luke 22

We are walking in today:  Unmasking the Spirit of Betrayal

Teaching from the book:  Unmasking The Jezebel Spirit, by John Paul Jackson.

Witness betray throughout the bible:  H7411 ramah  deceive, beguile, trick and deal treacherously
Isaiah 33:1; Psalm 73:15; Acts 7:52

Luke 22:21-22
But look, the hand of the one betraying Me is at the table with Me! For the Son of Man will go away as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!” - HCSB

Revelation 2:18-21
“Write to the angel of the church in Thyatira:“The Son of God, the One whose eyes are like a fiery flame and whose feet are like fine bronze, says: I know your works—your love, faithfulness, service, and endurance. Your last works are greater than the first. But I have this against you: You tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess and teaches and deceives My slaves to commit sexual immorality and to eat meat sacrificed to idols. I gave her time to repent, but she does not want to repent of her sexual immorality. - HCSB

Ecclesiastics 12:13
When all has been heard, the conclusion of the matter is: fear God and keep His commands, because this is for all humanity. - HCSB

Understanding more and more the operation of the Jezebel spirit. We see how the influence of the spirit of betrayal, entering in Judas heart causing him to be overwhelmed by demonic influences without reasonable doubt to fulfill his goal. Something had to have taken root in Judas's soul in order for this betrayal to be able to have an influence on his mind.
The Jezebel spirit gains hold of one's consciousness and spirit, yaking root and entrenching itself into one's being causing fruits of darkness to grow knowingly or unknowingly--all  leading up to a mature Jezebelite...

It also masks itself to be a truly prophetic voice. Thus mimicking and disguising itself with false humility, religious knowledge of doctrine with a twist and generosity. Veiling the demonic intent of destruction to take control or silencing the true prophetic voice and killing the ministry.

As cunning as the Jezebel spirit maybe, we still have to understand the difference between a false prophet and a prophet of Yahweh. Care must be taken not kill the prophetic voice in a new and immature prophet. Being very careful to discern the fruits of the young prophet: looking for fruits of humility and the urgency to do only Yahweh's will. A young prophet should be trained to maturity with wisdom. For the choice to use one's gift for the kingdom of Yahweh or perversion. Is ever-present more than ever before? So the cure for training and observant for symptoms may apply.

A false prophet will expect attention, pain, notoriety and gifts. They would be often too busy with functions than to be in the face of Yahweh for impartation, instructions and wisdom. They will possess an insatiable lust for life. Uncontrollable desires for carnal things and self-indulging pleasurable things. Never intending to spread the truth of the gospel, the good news of the Torah but intend on a selfish agenda.

The more one is in operation or cooperation with the Jezebel influence. The more and more the person becomes cunning and deceptive and deliberate in ill intent. Causing manipulation to open doors for demonic control of friends, family members, positions and churches the list goes on. When confronted moves to display false humility, when lies and flattery cease to work anymore to deceive. The person becomes aggressive angry, full of condemnation, accusation and domination. Keeping a careful eye on the subtleties of the characteristic traits, the false prophet versus a real prophet. Allowing the Ruach HaKodesh to lead you and guide you into all truth.

The spirit of betrayal was known by the Creator of life and the hour had come for Yeshua to reveal His death and betrayal. And yet with all of His magnificence, humility and wise demeanor, Yeshua at the Passover seder meal with His disciples. So smooth and effectual His way of introducing the deceived to the deceiver.

Luke 22:21-22
But look, the hand of the one betraying Me is at the table with Me! For the Son of Man will go away as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!” - HCSB

The spirit of Jezebel rose up that night before the enactment--Yeshua pointed out Judas as His betrayer. The disciples argued over leadership. Influenced by greed, pride, jealousy, envy and who knows what else demonically. All the while, having a Passover meal with the master of all.  Up to the point of training and preparation of the Holy Lamb of Yahweh. The talmidim who wanted to be greater than each other were, asleep--still clueless another betrayal and sacrifice of Yeshua Hamashiach.  To hear this again click here.
