Witchcraft in the Church 77<br />

the time to get h<strong>and</strong>s laid on you for a touch from the Lord. This extra<br />

boost from heaven will help carry you through the battle that is ahead.<br />

In 2 Timothy 1:6 we read “God did not give us a spirit <strong>of</strong> timidity (intimidation),<br />

but <strong>of</strong> power, love, <strong>and</strong> a sound mind (disciplined mind).”<br />

The first thing to overcome an attack <strong>of</strong> intimidation from the enemy is<br />

power. 1 Corinthians 4:20 Paul writes “the kingdom <strong>of</strong> God is not about<br />

talk, but power.” We need to continually walk in a fresh touch from<br />

heaven. This comes by having a strong prayer life <strong>and</strong> by being in<br />

places where God is moving in a powerful way. I will talk about impartation<br />

later, but I will say that there are some places that God is depositing<br />

his presence in these last days in a powerful way. I encourage you<br />

to go <strong>and</strong> receive prayer. There is an anointing in this. I know that my<br />

life <strong>and</strong> so many others have been totally transformed by receiving<br />

prayer at places like Airport Christian <strong>Fellowship</strong> in Toronto or Brownsville<br />

Assembly <strong>of</strong> God in Pensacola, Florida. There are other places as<br />

well. I know about the awesome power <strong>of</strong> God in the Benny Hinn meetings<br />

or Rodney Howard Brown meetings. I am not a Pharisee. You will<br />

always hear me encouraging people to go after God. Stay hungry,<br />

humble, <strong>and</strong> on fire.<br />

6. Love<br />

The next thing Paul mentioned that we need is love. We need to love<br />

God more than our reputations or what man thinks <strong>of</strong> us. We are to<br />

live crucified with Christ. A dead man does not care what people think<br />

<strong>of</strong> him. Ministers, above all, have to lose this care <strong>of</strong> what man thinks.<br />

This is the quickest way to be intimidated. If we truly love the Lord, the<br />

fear <strong>of</strong> man will disappear. Paul also says that if he was living to<br />

please men he could not be a bondservant <strong>of</strong> the Lord. In dealing<br />

firmly with people it is important to not be in fear <strong>of</strong> what man’s opinion<br />

is. This leads me to the next <strong>and</strong> last point.<br />

7. Sound mind<br />

Our minds are at peace when we know that we have the mind <strong>of</strong> Christ<br />

in a certain situation. The Bible says “we” have the mind <strong>of</strong> Christ. We<br />

are all the body <strong>of</strong> Christ together. Therefore no individual has the full<br />

mind <strong>of</strong> Christ alone. We need each other. It would be wise to seek<br />

council from wise leaders <strong>and</strong> get their opinion. This can ensure that<br />

your ideas are lining up with the will <strong>of</strong> Jesus perfectly. When you know<br />

that you have Christ’s mind in a situation there is tremendous boldness<br />

<strong>and</strong> confidence.
