Unmasking the Spirit of Esau I

Text: Obad. 1:17-18
More lessons: Hab. 12:16-17
Bible Reading in one Year: Psalms 109-113

There are dozens of lessons to learn about what not to do and how not to conduct oneself as a fire bearing Christian from the character of Esau the son of Isaac. Esau was a man who had no control over his emotion. Hunger finished him and he sold his birthright simply because he was hungry and could not persist enough. That is why God refers to him as stubble. Any time you trade your Christianity for anything else, you become a grass; fire will finish you one day. It doesn't matter what that thing is, people around you may not see anything wrong with it. People around you may even encourage you, but God knows in heaven that you have become grass like Esau. Fire will finish you, because at the end of age all sinners will go to hell. For this lack of control over your emotion, your tongue, the environment, falling into temptation frequently- check your fire!

Esau was the brother of Jacob but he was an arch enemy of Jacob. That was why God desired that Jacob should be fire while Esau should be grass. Because Esau is an enemy of God. It does matter the story the moment God chose a man, you better follow that man. It pleases God that Jacob should become the owner of the heritage of Abraham, whatever story you and I heard about Jacob not regarding that is God's choice and it stands. Don't ever put yourself to what God has chosen. The choice of God is Jacob and everybody who works against Jacob is an enemy of God, not enemy of Jacob alone but the enemy of God who made Jacob what he is. He chose Jacob; he is His choice, so anyone who works against Jacob works against Jehovah. I say to you, whoever works against your destiny works against Jehovah and will be turned to grass in Jesus' mighty name. I turn every work of the enemy against you to grass in the name of Jesus. I have never heard God say He hates someone until it came to Esau why- he confronted what God has chosen.

When God says He hates you even dying will not help the matter, it will make the matter worst. The spirit of Esau represents every negative power, thought and lust that is designed to stop the flames of God's fire in your life. Embrace the principles of the God of Jacob and stop the tantrums of the spirit of Esau in your life today.

Prayer/Action
* Pray against every home born enemies at home or at work.
* Declare every enemy position against you ordinary grass and command them to be consumed by fire.
* Pray that the fire of God upon your life will not go down.
