Key Thought

God is exposing and defeating the counterfeit.

The Voice of the Enemy

Our counterfeit tactics have not only been exposed, but their Father is also demonstrating His infinite power over what we’ve counterfeited. I know it’s looking bleak for us, so this is what you must do, and you must do it quickly; use the humans’ God-given gift of sympathy. Get them to feel badly for the magicians! Get them to pity the person or thing that has held them in captivity and use that to draw them back to the very thing that had them in chains. Don’t you see? If you get, for example, a woman to feel pity for the man who emotionally abused her for years, she will go back and she isn’t strong enough yet to withstand. She’ll fall right back into the trap! While their Father is trying to cause separation, find the ‘soft spot’ in their heart for what they have just left. We can still draw them back.

The Voice of the Father

My son, my daughter, do not fear and do not mourn. I have not only exposed the counterfeit provision in your life but I am demonstrating my power over the counterfeit and removing it from your life. I am not exposing you, I am exposing the weakness and the limitations of the power of the enemy. He can copy, but he can only copy to an extent. Today, I am leading you to places that the enemy cannot copy; a higher place. Again, I tell you, don’t look back. The ‘magicians’ are in my hands. You are not strong enough to minister to the person who held you in captivity. You have to trust me and leave that to me. You must allow me to remove the counterfeit in you life so that you won’t be tempted to return. Remember that Satan can only copy. I have what is real. I know that you are feeling a void even now in your heart, but trust me and I will fill it.
