"18 But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
19 You believe that GOD is one; you do well. Even the "DEMONS BELIEVE AND SHUDDER"!
20 Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?"
Much is being made concerning the address of Prime Minister Netanyahu to a joint session of the United States Congress. If our leaders could "see" (John 12:40) what scripture indicates they would recognize that Israel is being "left alone", just like Jacob was left alone in Genesis 32 with GOD. Only this time GOD will be fighting FOR Israel, not WITH Israel (Jacob)!
I was blessed to have the occasion to be in the presence of a great friend of mine, Bishop Robert E. Smith. He had a previously scheduled interview with a radio program about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address and the impact it had SPIRITUALLY! My "eyes were opened" to some perspectives I had yet to consider. When you back off from the situation and consider things from Bishop's point of view, things really began to make sense!
Satan "trembles" in the presence of Deity! The Bible says in book of James 2:19 that even the "DEMONS BELIEVE AND SHUDDER"! Why?? They were defeated by JESUS CHRIST and they know their eventual fate is inevitable. Whenever the Spirit of JESUS is present the spirit of the enemy MUST flee!
There is a reason that some leaders didn't appear at Prime Minister Netanyahu's address, and is not because they were against the Prime Minister's viewpoints. The forces (spirits) that drive each of us are who we really are. When the Spirit of GOD is present, other spirits are uncomfortable to the point of shuddering. In Matthew 8:27-34 JESUS evicted two evil spirits from the two men. The evil spirits BEGGED HIM to "send us away into the herd of pigs." JESUS didn't have to struggle and battle them! HE simply said "GO" and it was so!
Evil spirits are no match whatsoever to the KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS! To know HIS Spirit lives in me gives me great comfort and assurance. James 2:19 says that "DEMONS BELIEVE AND SHUDDER", so why is it that mankind has problems believing? The truths and prophecies in GOD's Word will NOT go infilled. Not only do "DEMONS BELIEVE AND SHUDDER", but one day "every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that JESUS CHRIST is LORD!!!
