THE LAW OF INCREASE

The law of increase is also called the law of harvest, or the law of use. It is God's will for us to have increase. Increase in our spirituality, mental capacity, skills, knowledge, wisdom, faith, health, wealth and influence. Basically in every areal of our lives we can and must increase.

In the book of Matthew 25:15 we find the parable of the talents. The Parable of the Talents describes a man who gave each of his three servants an amount of money, each according to his ability, before he left on a trip. When he returned, he had the servants give an account of what they had done with the money.

The first two servants in the parable put their money to work and doubled it, which pleased their master. But the third one was afraid and hid the money so he wouldn’t make his master angry by losing it. However, his master was angry because he didn’t even deposit the money in a bank to earn interest. The master considered him wicked and lazy for doing nothing at all and gave his money to the servant with the greatest return.

According to God...

* small increase is better than no increase at all
* if you're faithful or because of your faithfulness with little, you will be entrusted with much.

What do we say then?

1. Do not be lazy. Work well and work hard with what you have. 
2. Whatever you do not use, you will lose. Your skills, talents and gifting for example will only increase when you use them.
3. Be faithful in what you do. God will increase what you're faithful to.

In conclusion... God wants you to increase. It is up to you to step up and step into the blessing of increase which has been prepared for you. Even if it looks like you have something small, you won't end there. Though you may have little, you will end with great.

JEALOUSY IS A SPIRIT — A SPIRIT OF WITCHCRAFT

Jealousy is not just a feeling. It is a spirit, a dangerous and destructive spirit that hides behind smiles, flattery, and silence. It operates silently in families, workplaces, churches, and even among friends. It is the spirit that resents your progress, your joy, your calling, your anointing. In the Bible, this spirit was behind Cain’s murder of Abel — “And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: But unto Cain... He had not respect… And Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.” (Genesis 4:4-8) Joseph’s brothers were so gripped by this spirit that they threw him into a pit and sold him into slavery. “And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.” (Genesis 37:5-11) King Saul, filled with envy at David’s favor, sought to kill him: “And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.” (1 Samuel 18:9) But what is even more dangerous is that jealousy is witchcraft in disguise. It may not use charms or incantations, but the evil desires of the heart ...

THE SPIRIT OF JEZEBEL

It’s Not What Many Think. Let’s clear something up, because the enemy thrives in confusion and mislabeling. Too many people think the "Jezebel spirit" is all about sexual immorality. While seduction played a role in Queen Jezebel’s story, the real root of this spirit runs much deeper and far more dangerous. The spirit of Jezebel is not just about lust. It’s about control, manipulation, deception, and the usurping of leadership and godly authority. This spirit doesn’t always wear revealing clothes or come with flirtation. Sometimes, it shows up in the church with a smile and scripture, twisting truth to suit personal agendas. It silences prophetic voices. It disrupts unity. It operates through fear and intimidation, seeking to control those called by God. Queen Jezebel orchestrated murders, promoted idolatry, and stood in direct opposition to God’s prophets—not because of physical seduction, but because of her desire to manipulate power and control the narrative. Jesus Himself...

Beware the Herod Spirit: A Silent Killer of Potential

In Matthew 2, we find a disturbing yet revealing story. Wise men from the East came to Jerusalem asking, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews?” (Matthew 2:2). When King Herod heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him (Matthew 2:3). Though Jesus was still a child, not yet preaching, not yet performing miracles, and not yet gathering followers, the mere news of His birth—the announcement of His potential—sent fear and insecurity into the heart of Herod. Herod’s response? Genocide. He commanded that all male children two years old and under in Bethlehem and its surroundings be killed (Matthew 2:16). Why? Because he wanted to eliminate the possibility of another king rising. He wasn’t fighting a crowned ruler—he was fighting a baby with destiny. This is the essence of what many call the Herod spirit—a spiritual opposition that seeks to destroy purpose, potential, and divine promise before it can fully manifest. Understanding the Herod Spirit The Herod spirit is not...
