”But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you. Or how can one enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house. He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.“ Matthew 12:25-30 (NKJV); Luke 11:16-23(NKJV)
There are two groups among Christians which the Lord Jesus is dividing, which are still here who are making divisions in the Body of Christ. As the Lord is saying if a kingdom is divided against itself it will be destroyed and cannot stand. So we ourselves do not seem to know the seriousness of the Kingdom of God which is at work among us and to help it to grow and expand. Unless we bind the strong man, the devil by receiving the Spirit of God and coming against with one force, we cannot take victory. Let us examine ourselves and know where we stand?
Group 1 – Those who are with Jesus & gather with Him: Revelation 7:9-12(NKJV)
If you are already doing something for the Gospel to be preached then find out whether you are doing with the power of the Holy Spirit to chase out demons. Please make sure you wear the whole armour of God and stand. Many are coming to the spiritual battle without any armour or many armours missing. This is not at all funny anymore as the battle is getting intensified against the enemy Satan. The whole armour of God – 1. Truth 2. Righteousness 3. Gospel of peace 4. Faith 5. Salvation 6. Word of God 7. Speaking in tongues. So put on all these tools missing nothing and learn well how to use them also; because in a warfare no one goes empty handed to be beaten up and killed. Ephesians 6:13-18(NKJV)
Group 2 – Those who are against Jesus & scatter abroad: Revelation 6:12-16(NKJV)
If you are not doing anything thinking I am not capable or worthy, then you are also not helping the Gospel but rather you are against the Lord Jesus and scattering what the above group trying it’s best to gather!! Because your lifestyles will be exactly like the worldly people and this give a bad impression to the people who observe you, because you call yourselves Christians and yet compromise with everyone saying all religions lead to peace and to God, which is the lie from the pit of hell. Beware of the enemies tricks and do not lose your eternal life over fleeting pleasures of this world which is worthless. Everyone got to give account to God for every vain word uttered, if you are careless. Once you were brought before Him you cannot give excuses anymore.
Jesus said, ““Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit. Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”” Matthew 12:33-37 (NKJV)
