Mass Deliverance Manual

Now in the occult you are seduced into passivity. If you have not read Jesse Penn-Lewis’ classic book, by Evan Roberts’ book, it came out of the Welsh revival called “ War on the Saints.” It’s a very difficult book to read. The devil will fight you a great deal reading it. But it is a classic, and you cannot read it too much. It explores religious passivity, which is one of the strongest areas in which the devil is working today. Passivity is a dangerous, dangerous thing. Do not become passive. God never expects it, and He doesn’t desire it. Our God wants your active cooperation with Him. Even when the scripture says, “Be still and know I’m God, It doesn’t mean become a glob. It means wait expectantly, quiet in your spirit but waiting expectantly for the Lord. A lot of religious things that are going on are engendering and creating passivity in people and then, whoppo, they get hit with a religious demon. In all the occult, in all the religious cult systems, the cultic systems, of whatever nature they are, everyone of them makes strict requirements that you blank your mind, that you become totally passive, that you receive without question anything that comes from the top. Supposedly the top is right. Well that’s great if the top happens to be God, but most of the time, well any time it’s preaching that kind of stuff, the top is not God, because God has never encouraged nor taught passivity in His people. He wants active cooperation with Him. When you speak in tongues or when you go to receive the baptism, it amazes me sometimes that people ever receive tongues in some places. Did you know that? The Holy Spirit is represented as a dove. He is a very skittish bird. He won’t land where there is any noise. You need a place that’s nice and still and quiet if the dove is going to make his landing. Some places I’ve been I’ll tell you I marvel at the power of God. How He could baptize somebody in the Holy Spirit in the middle of that hubbub, I couldn’t imagine. He did it in spite of what was going on instead of the cause of it I think. You know what I’m talking about, “hold on, let go. Scream out, be quiet!” Coming at them from every direction. Nothing but disorganized confusion. God works with active cooperation. For example, you don’t passively receive the Holy Spirit to be baptized into Him. No way. You actively wait expectantly for Him and even then, He doesn’t override you. He uses your breath, your tongue, and you decide to speak, that’s your part. He gives you the word, uses your breath, your tongue, but you decide to start and stop. I get scared about these people, “I couldn’t stop speaking in tongues.” I’ve thrown that kind out of some people. My Bible says the spirit of the prophet is subject to the prophet. Yes
