The Spirit of Jehoiakim
Unjust gain is a serious sin and we are warned in scripture not to defraud others of their wages, property, or possessions. The enemy lies to people or tells them partial truths to gain consent; Christians must never use such callous deception to grow their or their employers wealth.

Jezebel
Jezebel was a notorious woman in the Old Testament commonly known for being a usurper. She killed many prophets and seemed to get by with whatever she did. Unfortunately, Elijah didn’t live to see the judgment that God would bring upon her. He ran from her and hid in a cave. Jezebel brings enormous discouragement because it seems as though these types get by with whatever they do, and God never judges them, but he will eventually judge them.

The Spirit of Lot
Lot was a just man, but there was something about him that caused him to hang around in a city that was one of the most wicked in world history. He was even carried off one time by the enemy as spoils of war and God had to send Abraham to save him. Why stay? Why keep putting yourself through all of this? Eventually, God had to send an angel to practically drag him out as he was about to rain judgment down on them.

A House of Spirits
God designed humankind to be a temple for him to dwell in. However, when Adam sinned in the garden of Eden, he opened the door to other spirits coming in and inhabiting humankind as well. We are born with the spirit of disobedience working in us (Ephesians 2:1f) and if we open the door to the enemy, we may become demon possessed. When we turn to Christ and repentance, God will set us free from any demonic stronghold that may exist in our life, but our temple must be filled with the Holy Spirit or we risk coming under a worse form of possession than before.
