Controlaholic:
-
They are addicted to witchcraft and rebellion.
-
These addicts are also prone to becoming a "victim" therefore being
subject to control themselves. (Reaping what they have sown.)
Symptoms:
-
Their soul is actually stretched between fear and pride. (Leaving little
room for the Spirit.)
-
The farther "this stretch" the greater the fall. (Pride always comes
before a fall.)
-
This sets the stage for the spirit of Jezebel (power over authority)
with her cursing, false prophesy, false teaching and seductions of adultery,
fornication and the worship of idols. Her crafty use of control demands
obeisance paving the way for the paralyzing effects of the Ahab spirit.
-
This main idol being "self," with symptoms of insecurity and "infectious"
unbelief. It competes (2Cor.10:12) … "measuring themselves by themselves,
and comparing themselves among themselves" … as a means of belittling others
creating defiance and controllable factions.
-
This spirit is rampant in the harlot church where wolves (that mark
their territory), brute beasts (born without reason, created to be taken
and destroyed), and those twice dead congregate. Position is attained by
compromise, "respecter of persons" and ambition. These speak from other
spirits or their minds and oppose the issues of the heart. The continual
forcing is fed by assuming.
-
The harlot church is also the place of the Nicolaitans (to conquer the
common people), [Jesus hated their works] it is characterized by the division
of the "master pastor," and the "elite" (those with money, position, influence,
and knowledge) exerting power over the orphans, widows, poor, female, elderly,
weak and uneducated. Including segregation by age for subjugation and control.
-
They believe in the divine "pecking order" and naturally … false humility.
-
They are subject to the "my ministry demon" (In "Him," Jesus/God (Yeshua
- Yahweh), we live and breath and move and have our being in "His" ministry
– not "ours.")
-
Followed by The "kingdom building devil." (This great Babylon, which
I have built by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty?)
-
This leads to territorialism a "dominance overlord concept" of "Body
Government." The very word "pastor" (A French/Latin word) relates to the
control of territory under a "mammon" related pretext. This contrasts with
the scriptural shepherd ("Poimen" –Greek) one that loves and serves his
flock even to the point of laying down his life for the sheep.
-
Their anger is constantly sending out demons that murder, so they are
guilty of murder.
-
They use "performance for acceptance" as a control mechanism.

In Eph. 3:17 … we are called to be rooted and grounded in love; not
religion, anointing, knowledge or scripture … only love, "God is love".
In Gal. 5:6,22 the primary and most important fruit is love, out of which
flows other dependent manifestations of that love such as the fruit of
self-control by the Holy Spirit, "through love," not at all "our own restraint,
or suppressing and denying from our soul." Faith also works through love,
love being the greatest casts out fear.
1st John 4:18; 1st Cor.13:13.
