How to Detangle from This Jammed City

PART I

I will always remember with deep gratitude the counsel of my Man of God, the dearly beloved Rev. John C. Hutchison. He once told me, “You have to get off the media because they’re cities, and soon enough, you’ll pick up the culture of those cities.” I thank God I listened. Ever since I obeyed that instruction, I have enjoyed tremendous peace, lasting fulfilment, and a firm spiritual regimen that has steadied my walk with God.

Now let's get into something much deeper on the subject, 

In Galatians 5:1 |MSB, Paul heartily writes to the saints with these cautionary tone, 

     — “Christ has set us free to live a free life. So take your stand! Never again let anyone put a harness of slavery on you”.

Your value is not tied to how quick people respond to your messages, colonisation has only changed the way it's exacted but it's still being used by man in the application of science, actually, it's one of the most effective tool man has used to dominate the age of secular control for monopoly and hegemony, so it's never going to be abrogated nor abolished.

Repudiate the pull to being a slave to the responses of people, no man should ever master your emotions and how you feel, Rebel against that mental control, discipline yourself to live independently against all odds. Neo-colinisation is more entrenched than before, just that now it's a tool used in the entertainment and communication industry to damage the worth of people. 

Just look at this, now people literally pay for these chains that were once forced on their forefathers to be cuffed on their minds and emotions, and with their minds like a bowl, they queue for these same garbage that were dished out as victuals for these enslaved patriots who revolted for our sake, and paid the price of freedom with their lives. 

Some media platforms are even bold enough to call their content "feed", meaning food and appetisers, yet people are so blinded by the play on dopamine and serotonin, they're so drugged by the bait of pleasure and entertainment they wilfully feed on garbage like slaves. 

Science shows that serotonin and dopamine are both neurotransmitters, thus, chemical messengers in the brain. Now the Bible warns us against satan and his mind games. However, the knowledge of science has uncovered the extent of control man can have on another through the mind, and with this knowledge does he curate and engineer the application of his evil intentions. 

Serotonin is often referred to as the "feel-good" neurotransmitter. It plays a role in regulating mood, appetite, and sleep. Serotonin is also involved in the regulation of pain, body temperature, and some cognitive functions — Dopamine, on the other hand, is involved in the brain's reward and pleasure system. It plays a role in motivation, focus, and attention. Dopamine is also involved in movement control and coordination.

It will amaze you to know that people experience the exact same things these natural messengers in the brain are expected to self-initiate each time they visit the social media — depending on the intention behind the content and feed, they either feel good or pain, motivation or depression, pleasure or remorse, so much so, others even break down in their physical health when the play on dopamine is abused. 

These tech scientists and engineers have weaponised what God gave you naturally so they could control and enslave you — and it's evident in how anxious you become when response to messages delay from parties involved — how worthy you feel is the fruit of their control, and this right here is true, believe me.

This control is much more evident with the time-bound data packages active in the Eastern hemisphere, which includes the continent of Africa — sadly, many still think it's a sheer coincidence that these big telecom companies tailor such time-bound bundle packages for those in less privileged countries— it is designed so citizens can waste their time in making sure to exhaust what they paid for, right here we also see the distortion in the real meaning of value — and like a bait, many fall for their traps and into a deep hole very few are able to escape. 

They use these and other effective tools of control to train indigenes on how to become skillful with time mismanagement and complacency, and soon after some time, it begins to show in the nations chain of command. Right from the top, commonwealth is carefully reprogrammed by these tools of control so they become distanced from economic and political advancements. 

It is so disheartening to know that the same basket used to collect slaves few centuries afore is still being used today, unfortunately, we now see less resistance from those they've targeted to become their subjects, and this is how a wide range of people are locked in this digital age of deception — their vision of mental slavery for these countries hasn't changed, and the earlier you know this, the better for you. 

A great writer once said, “the first sign of victory is to know the enemy's position”, and I've come to find out this is truth, which is why I'm carefully educating you on what's happening in our world today. 

Think above the times and affront their supply of thoughts with heavenly thoughts about yourself. Your heavenly father by the Holy Ghost is said to be your very present help, yes, very present, meaning He responds to you immediately, thus even before you finish forming words.

This is the truth about your worth in Christ, refuse to accept what the media shows you, never be controlled by the pace of response from natural men. Revolt against the control of these times by thinking differently.

This is why we pray as children of God, so we can stay ahead of the schemes and plots of the enemy against the saints of God — in prayer we make divine ascents, we voyage upwards with spiritual words, and from that height we're able to have a panoramic view, thus we see akin to a bird's eye view in the realms of the spirit — so we can accurately put off any impeding obstruction in our path, as we watch in prayer. 

Balaam, the Eastern Mesopotamia false prophet from Aram, was made to also take a higher position, thus a higher altitude, intending to portray a sense of eminence, control and absolute state capture of the Israeli congregation — this he did repeatedly at different locations so he could see the Israelis clearly as they moved through the wilderness arranged in their tribes, forming the sign of the cross. 

Now this was the perspective from which Paul the Apostle saw in the realms of the Spirit and described Moses, in Acts 7:38, as the pastor of the church that was in the wilderness — He described the nation Balaam was determined to curse (dishonor and disengage) as the Church. This was why God intervened, so his plots will be rendered revoked and of non-effect against His people — now we his saints have that same privilege to ascend in prayer, so we stop the enemy from progressing in his plots of wickedness and control. 

Numbers 23:7,9,11,13-14 |AMP narrates, 

      — Balaam took up his [first] discourse (oracle) and said: “Balak, the king of Moab, has brought me from Aram (Syria), from the mountains of the east, [saying,] ‘Come, curse [the descendants of] Jacob for me; And come, [violently] denounce Israel.’ “For from the top of the rocks I see Israel, And from the hills I look at him. 

     Behold, the people [of Israel] shall dwell alone And will not be reckoned among the nations. Then Balak said to Balaam, “What have you done to me? I brought you to curse my enemies, but here you have [thoroughly] blessed them instead!”

      Balak said to him, “Come with me, I implore you, to another place from where you can see them, although you will see only the nearest and not all of them; and curse them for me from there.” So he took Balaam to the field of Zophim to the top of [Mount] Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bull and a ram on each altar”.

This passage is so eye-opening, as it helps us to understand the relevance of making ascents and climbing for clarity in matters relating to the spiritual — Aaron and Hur, who both held Moses' hands for Israel's victory over Amalek also did that on an elevated plain, thus on a hill — again we see the relevance of heights and ascents in reference to victory and firm resistance to defeat. 

Let's now have a closer look at the account from Exodus 17:8,10-16,

       “Amalek came and fought Israel at Rephidim. Joshua did what Moses ordered in order to fight Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went to the top of the hill. It turned out that whenever Moses raised his hands, Israel was winning, but whenever he lowered his hands, Amalek was winning. 

      But Moses' hands got tired. So they got a stone and set it under him. He sat on it and Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on each side. So his hands remained steady until the sun went down. Joshua defeated Amalek and its army in battle. GOD said to Moses, "Write this up as a reminder to Joshua, to keep it before him, because I will most certainly wipe the very memory of Amalek off the face of the Earth." 

         Moses built an altar and named it "GOD My Banner." He said, Salute GOD's rule! GOD at war with Amalek Always and forever!” 

A lot happens to this world when we take our stance in prayer as God's people — we replace deception with truth by bringing the plots of the enemy to light and judgement — Psalms 82 entreats us to defend our world, now God wouldn't inspire these words for our reading if we couldn't perform what He was suggesting. 

In prayer we take our stand as watchmen high up in the realms of the spirit, and with the name of the Lord Jesus as a strong tower we're enabled to defend our world — but it's not enough when only few people engage fervent prayers for the light of the glorious gospel to shine in the hearts of the souls in our world— it's time for the saints all around the world to take a solid front in heartfelt prayers so we, as a unified body, can boldly repel the pull of good towards the world of darkness. 

It is interesting to note that whenever Balaam opened his mouth to curse (thus dishonor) God's people with words, blessings and divine prophecies flowed from his lips — this happened because the God of Israel was higher than his high-sounding words, God proved Himself higher in eminence and operation than the spirit that was at work in the false prophet. 

Let's now have a deeper understanding into what the Bible means by the term “false prophet” from 1 John 4:1,5-6, Amplified Bible, Bleisy Edition. It reads,  

      — “Beloved, do not believe every spirit [speaking through a self-proclaimed prophet]; instead test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets and teachers have gone out into the world. 

       They [who teach twisted doctrine] are of the world and belong to it; therefore they speak from the [viewpoint of the] world [with its immoral freedom and baseless theories—demanding compliance with their opinions and ridiculing the values of the upright], and the [gullible one of the] world listens closely and pays attention to them.

         We [who teach God’s word] are from God [energized by the Holy Spirit], and whoever knows God [through personal experience] listens to us [and has a deeper understanding of Him]. 

        Whoever is not of God does not listen to us. By this we know [without any doubt] the spirit of truth [motivated by God] and the spirit of error [motivated by Satan]”. 

In these last days, the Bible clearly categorises the scientists of our time as false prophets, with their doctrines of science likened the teachings of Balaam, promoting immorality, sexual vice and ungodliness with the media as a tool for control. 

Revelations 2:14 |AMP recounts, 

— “Nevertheless, I have a few things against you: you have some people there who are clinging to the teaching (doctrine |kjv) of Balaam, who taught Balak to set a trap and a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, [to entice them] to eat food that had been sacrificed to idols and to practice lewdness [giving themselves up to SEXUAL VICE]”. 

The Greek rendering for the term “false prophet” is pseudoprophētēs, and it's important we look it up from this rendering because the new testament was originally written in Greek, so it captures the accurate intent of the author for a perfect understanding and perspective.
