Who’s on the Lord’s Side? by Evangelist Kiera Brown

-- The book of Jude serves as a vital call to earnestly contend for the faith in a time where false teachings and false lifestyles are running rampant through the church. -- Humility is the foundation of being on the Lord's side. Like Jude, who identified himself as a servant rather than boasting of his relationship with Jesus, we must prioritize service to God over titles and recognition. -- Believers must cultivate a spirit of discernment. The enemy is crafty and can even use accurate words to lead people astray, so we must judge by fruit and influence, not just accuracy. -- The "python spirit" is a deceptive, suffocating force that often operates as an "ambush predator." It seeks to isolate you, wear you down, and ultimately cut off your communication with God by hindering your prayer and praise. -- We must guard our "ear gates" and "eye gates." Engaging in certain media or environments—even if they seem harmless—can lead to "ignorant submission," where we unknowingly give the enemy legal access to our lives. -- Victory over these spirits comes through authentic prayer, constant praise, and living a life that is truly pleasing to the Lord, rather than entertaining what the enemy uses to defile us.
