Remote Control

Spiritual warfare is not like physical combat.
In a spiritual battle, an enemy can afflict a person
without being physically present.

Introduction
         The sun is at one place. Yet, its light reaches far and wide. The sunlight is also sun. Hence, the sun comprises itself and the ambient sunlight.
         If a flower is good, you perceive its fragrance from afar, before reaching or seeing the flower. The flower is in the fragrance, and the fragrance is also in the flower. The two are one, inseparable.
         The sciences teach us that objects have both magnetic and electrical fields. The fields extend in all directions round the object. The fields could be small or large in range.

How Remote Control Works
         Likewise, a spirit has a spiritual field. For a mighty spirit, the spiritual field reaches far and wide. Anything or person within the spiritual field can be manipulated or controlled by the spirit. If the spirit is good, the manipulation is unto righteousness and goodness. Where the spirit is bad, the manipulation is unto unrighteousness and evil. Blessed is he who is pure in heart, for the Holy Spirit shields him from all forms of evil forces, influences and works.
         A spirit is like the sun, which is a force that has heat, flame and light. The sun is outside the earth, controlling the earth by gravitation. It is inside the world, as light, sustaining life, and inside the ground, as heat, empowering reaction. In other words, whether you are seeing the sun or not, the sun is controlling your life to a remarkable extent, without your knowing it. The spirit behaves just like the sun. It can control you by its spiritual force, enfold you with its presence, permeate you by its imperceptible nature, push or pull you by its magnetic field.
         The person who is being punished for committing a crime might have acted out a series of thought generated by another person or radiated by an evil spirit. That is why those who are spiritually awake are not quick to condem a sinner. And God hates sin, and still love the sinner.
         The thought-waves acumulate over a long time, and can become so strong as to drive an innocent person to commit a sin he would not have thought of, let alone commit. St Paul bears witness that he finds himself doing the wrong he never thought of doing. The evil man stays awake at night to plan evil against others because like attracts like. His evil nature attracts the thought waves from evil spirits, demons, ghosts and black energies. The thoughts overshadow him, such that he cannot sleep, except to entertain similar thoughts, which are evil. He thinks that he is the person thinking and planning, whereas he is only receiving evil thoughts and plans from other evil beings. Jesus said it, and rightly too, "The Devil is at one place, but his venom goes far and wide."
         On the good side, individuals have told me that they somtimes find themselves thinking about something. Eventually, that thing happens just the way they thought about it. Some have asked me, "What causes it?" That is inspiration. That time they think that they were thinking about something that will happen, it was not themselves that were thinking. Rather, it was the Holy Spirit or their Guardian Angels speaking to them.

Why You Should Be Strong In Spirit
         Everybody bears witness that there has been increased moral decadence over the years. The situation continues to worsen because humnaity are ignorant of what they are, how to live a spiritually fulfilled life, and more especially because they make themselves easily vulnerable to the forces of darkness. The spiritual devaluation has got to the extent that demons now hold meetings and travel all the way from hell to the earth to mislead, push and pull many into the hell fire.
         Mankind must reverse the trend by doing spiritual practice – living in spirit and in truth. The earlier this is done, the better for you and others. When you are strong in spirit:
  1. The evil spirits cannot manipulate you. They flee away from your presence and name.
  2. The Holy Spirit becomes an invisible shield around you. It is like you are living and moving about inside a mighty pillar of light that is invincible.
  3. You attract the Angels and Saints to your side, environment and activities. The Angels and Saints guide, protect and prosper you.
  4. You connect to God and become one with Him. God’s omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience become accessible to you, a great advantage.
How To Make Yourself Strong In Spirit
         The above facts highlight why you should be strong in spirit, so that you avoid the influences, manipulations and consequences of the devils. You make yourself strong in spirit by:
  1. Living a righteous life.
  2. Maintaining a strong prayer habit.
  3. Engaging in selfless services.
  4. Performing all duties as service offering to the Lord Almighty.
  5. Attaining non-duality, neither likes this nor hates that.
  6. Doing spiritual practise like meditation, God consciousness, etc.
         Very importantly, you should know that the environments are full of spiritual fields and forces: those that are good, as well as those that are bad. These forces are potencies – they have power to express themselves. They can achieve their goals or bring into manifestation the ideas embodied in them.

Conclusions
  1. A spirit does not need to be present at you rlocation before it can manipulate or harm you.
  2. You need to shield yoruself with the Holy Spirit, from the forces of darkness.
  3. To consolidate your life in spirit and in truth, you must be living a holy life. Holiness is the key to success, prosperity and victory.
  4. Now that I have told you the truth, strive towards life in spirit and in truth. Devote time, money and opportunities to read and study more about God and life, especially about life in the heavenly kingdoms.
