THE POWER OF KNOWING

♦NOT KNOWING is the Greatest Infirmity and Weakness that makes Us Vulnerable to the Evil Works and Antics of the Devil.

                         ♥Hosea 4:6 KJV
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
       
         -Ignorance or not Knowing is what gives the Devil the Access,the Foothold and the Opportunity to hinder, Steal,Kill, and Destroy.

                      ♥Eph.4.27amp." Leave no [such] room or foothold for the devil [give no opportunity to him]."

    -The devil is pretty good at taking Advantage of Us in our State of ignorance and not knowing what we ought to know.Like Someone Said "KNOWLEDGE IS POWER,"

♦THE POWER OF KNOWING WHAT YOU OUGHT TO KNOW IS WHAT BRINGS PERMANENT DELIVERANCE AND FREEDOM FROM THE
OPPRESSIVE SHACKLE OF DEMONIC ACTIVITIES THROUGH IGNORANCE AND FEAR.

                      ♥Proverbs 11:9 KJV
An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

          -The Devil through Flatteries,Seducing Influences and his demonic doctrines and Teachings is perpetuating Spiritual Blindness,Fear and Ignorance inorder to Cut off the Children of God from Accessing and Enjoying All that the Father Has Already Provided for them.

                       ♥1 Timothy 4:1 KJV
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;

          -YOU ought to be Very Careful of what your Hearing and Who your Hearing it from,lest you come under the influence of Lies and Deceptions that makes people Vulnerable to the devil.

          -As a BELIEVER in CHRIST,you need to passionately pursue the Knowledge of the Truth in these Three major Areas:

                1.Know Who you are in Christ(Your Identity)
                2.Know What you Have in Christ(Your Inheritance)
                3.Know What you Can Do in Christ (Your potential)

         -When you know this Truth and Embrace it by Applying it in your Life,you will not only be made free, but you will be Living Free Indeed.
         -We are "FREED TO LIVE FREE" through CHRIST and the Knowledge of His Finished Work in His Death,Burial and Resurrection.

                         ♥John 8:32,36 KJV
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
[36] If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
                    
          -GOD'S Will is that the PRIEST'S LIPS Should keep Knowledge and have the RIGHT SOUND WORD to Teach and Feed His People.

                       ♥Malachi 2:6-7 KJV
The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.
[7] For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the Lord of hosts.
        
    -The devil Can Easily tell the Knowledgeable Believer from the Ignorant Believers who are quick to Quit,Give up,Cave in and Turn their Back to the troubles, Challenges and Adversities he brings their way.

          ⚫The Case of the Seven Sons of the Chief of the Priests named SCEVA,who were ignorant of what they ought to know,is quite Examplary of what happens to People who are Lacking in Knowledge.

                       ♥Acts 19:13-16 KJV
Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
[14] And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
[15] And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
[16] And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
                       
     -When you are intimidated and Oppressed by the devil,it is an indication that your Spiritual Strength is Small,because of the Lack of the precise  exact Knowledge of the Will of God.

                       ♥Proverbs 24:5,10 KJV
A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.
[10] If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.

♦ APOSTLE PAUL UNDERSTOOD "THE POWER OF KNOWING",AS ONE WHO HAD THE ABUNDANCE OF REVELATION IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD AND HIS SON JESUS CHRIST.

            -Understanding the Power of Knowing is what Prompted Apostle Paul to Encourage the BELIEVERS in His Epistles to Always Pray that their Eyes of Understanding be Enlightened,So they Can Come to the place of "KNOWING WHAT THEY OUGHT TO KNOW"

                       ♥Ephesians 1:17-19 KJV
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
[18] The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
[19] And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

   -VICTORY,SUCCESS and EXPLOIT in Life and Ministry is All About What you Know about God and What He Has Done in CHRIST JESUS for you in His Finished Work.

                         ♥Daniel 11:32 KJV
And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits .

-I Sincerely will Love to Encourage you to Always make the Praying of KNOWING  GOD'S WILL AND THE TRUTH OF THE GRACE OF CHRIST your Heart Desire,so you Can Live a Victorious Powerful Christian Life.

                      ♥Colossians 1:9-11 KJV
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it , do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
[10] That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
[11] Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
