WHEN YOU NOTICE DEMONIC SIGNS  5/18/11

 

A QW reader has been noticing signs in creation, so much so that they have become personal and quickened to him and he wanted to know if I thought the Lord was speaking to him through these signs.  Some of the signs have been positive signs and many of them have been negative ones causing him to fear.

 

God speaks to us in any measure and way that we have the faith to allow Him access to speak to us. This person has a strong affinity with creation, so the fact the Lord would speak to this way is appropriate and quickened. Faith is kindled to sense that the signs have become spiritual and are relevant.  This is like a faith barometer saying they are a sign. Even though this person doesn't know they are good signs or a bad ones, the activated faith is definitely perceiving they are a sign.  That is the power of quickening.

 

The more we allow God to speak to us through signs and parables, the more our faith will grow that He is indeed communicating with us on a personal level.

 

Mark 4:24-25

Then He said to them, "Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given.

 

INTERPRETING SIGNS

As to how to interpret the signs, if it were me, I might see both, but would always try to focus on the GOOD side and good interpretation. 

 

9/17/04  INTERPRET ON THE POSITIVE SIDE

HEARD:  How would you like to interpret what you hear? Always on the positive side coming up. Faith, it's total trust. It's trust that I AM God. Sometimes equip, sometimes faith. What was this? It was faith. Hold on, there's always peace right after a personal storm.

 

The concept of interpreting signs is always strong meat. It is hard to chew and separate, to decide whether it is good or evil. Strong meat is for the mature and not babies who drink the milk.

 

Heb 5:14

But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
 

From QW School:

 

CONTRASTING INTERPRETATIONS

I have noticed mystery Words almost always have two contrasting interpretations. Not only can they be interpreted spiritually and physically, but they can be interpreted from the Lord’s point of view or from the enemy’s. For instance, the Lord tells you He’s going to pull the feathers out of your nest and teach you to fly. Now this can be very disconcerting, depending upon which view you have! One: “Oh no, something terrible is going to happen and my place of security is going to be dismantled and I’m going to be thrown out!” (enemy interpretation) Two: “Oh wow, the Lord is going to move me to a better place where I can soar on the wind of His Holy Spirit, and have a great time seeing the sights!” (Lord’s interpretation)

 

The stronger the mystery Word, the more noticeable the two contrasting interpretations become. This happens when you hear riddles, or what the Bible calls dark speech. I went through a whole season of hearing riddles. Each and every time they could be interpreted from a negative point of view, or positive. It was a real time of standing in faith for me and overcoming my personal weaknesses.

 


 

QUICKENED PARABLE:  THINGS ARE NOT ALWAYS AS THEY SEEM 5/28/11

One of our QW Network members saw a vision of a grasshopper and then it turned into a spider.  She heard, "It's not always as it seems."  She had been praying against witchcraft curses, etc.  Moments later her daughter told her she had stepped on something and she wondered if the Lord was warning her about a spider.  She did not have her glasses on and couldnt tell what the black blob was so she called her husband into look.  He bent down to pick it up and said, "It's a bread tie!" You called me in here to pick up a bread tie?"  They all laughed!

 

Sometimes when we have been sifted after having gone through a war, we become trigger happy and want to shoot at anything that moves.  It is our natural reflexes from having gone through a trauma.  I call it being gun shy, thinking everything looks like the enemy until we give it a second look. 

 

I go through this after I have had demonic warfare and battled witchcraft and hearing/ seeing demons. 

 

When I heard about her spider parable actually being a bread tie, it was quickened to me.  The Lord desires to confirm us with His Words to validate our faith in what He says.  These are like nails, that fasten and secure His Words in a sure, strong place. 

 

Isa 22:23

And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house.

 

The problem is that the Lord speaks to us in riddles and parables and they always have at least 2 interpretations - one from the enemy side and one from the Lord's side.  It is our faith to see HIS point of view that gives us the advantage to use parables for good, even if they are negative parables for correction.  It is all a matter of perspective.  Sometimes our confirmations are stolen from us simply because our focus is on the demonic and we are refusing strong meat and not seeing God's perspectives on matters that shake us.

 

confirmation 5/28/11:  The following QW came out tonight that speaks about keeping the right perspective.

 

RHEMA 1/31/11 KEEP YOUR PERSPECTIVE RIGHT

 

IMPRESSION: I suddenly had the sense that I had my gold rimmed glasses on my face even though it was night time and I was in bed.

 

PIX: I saw a pair of black rimmed glasses taken and hurled off and they bounced.

 

Glasses represent the "grid" that we see through. Black rim represents the dark boundaries or perspectives that surround one's vision.

 

PIX: I saw a little girl going to an old rotten and dead log that was in decay. As she opened it, many black spiders came rushing out and running away from the log.

(Spiders represent the demonic and witchcraft)

 

HEARD: Keep your perspective right.

 

Phil 4:8-9

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy — meditate on these things.

 


 

SEPARATING DEMONIC PORTHOLES

If a person is seeing too many negative signs and they are causing fear, it may be an issue of learning to separate the demonic portholes vs angelic portholes in one's life:

 

1) lifestyle... are you walking a Godly life according to scripture?

 

2) fellowship... what are you feeding on in areas of entertainment and media? TV and misc media can definitely open a demonic porthole to torment one spiritually.

 

On the other side of it, the more we draw closer to God and turn our back on things of the devil and world, the more our faith will be activated to hear Him speak to us personally and we will be able to discern what is the devil and what is the Lord.

 

RHEMA 4/14/08 TO STRAIGHTEN YOUR PATH

PIX: I saw an aerial view of a curving river surrounded in jungle.

 

HEARD: Turn to Me and I will make your crooked ways straight.

 

HEARD: Fellowship. Whom do you seek? Weakness. Fortifying the inner man.

 

WORD TO PONDER: TO STRAIGHTEN YOUR PATH 4/14/08

The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. Beloved ones, I will straighten all that is crooked in your life. I will change your meandering ways and wandering thoughts. I will bring you through the maze and jungle of the world and fortify you to avert your eyes and walk worthy of your calling. Always be on guard to what is drawing you. It is My Spirit or is it your flesh? Is it My voice or is it your wounded soul? Where your treasure is, there your heart is also. Whom do you seek? Is your path straight and forthright?

 

Isa 42:16 NKJV

I will bring the blind by a way they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things I will do for them, and not forsake them.

 

THE PORTHOLE:  JESUS IS THE LADDER

I have been pondering and studying about heavenly portholes , praying for open heavens over my life and against demonic portholes.

 

I noticed the following scripture that tells us JESUS IS THE PORTHOLE. So cool!

 

John 1:50-51

Jesus answered and said to him, "Because I said to you, 'I saw you under the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."  And He said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."

 


 

 

MORAL OF THE STORY: 

 

  • If you want access to the God's porthole, look up.

 

  • If you want to close demonic portholes, dont look down

 

  • if you dont want to find spiders, dont look for them.
     

  • Sometimes things are not as they seem.  Rethink the same things you fear and place them with in a different interpretation and perspective.

 

Heb 12:2

... looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.

 

Phil 4:8 AMP

For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them].
