Free The Soul Redeemer: From Victim to Victory by Nancy Bowser Page B

sound funny but I keep seeing two dark spirits, Jezebel and Behemoth, armed to the hilt with their distinctly different weapons of enticement, entrapment and destruction.  It's like they are hit men for IS.
    "Really.  Tell me what you see," Casie smiled.
    "Well, Jezebel is hit man number one."  Nicole said.  "Its fee is the worship it gains through love of self, and it is paid in excess when it gains the worship of a Christian. 
    "It is a shape shifter and changes its appearance depending on the situation and the level of the victim's bondage.  It shifts between looking like a beautiful, charming woman, to a poisonous snake, to a constricting snake, to a spider. 
    "It seductively lures its victim into its snare like a beautiful woman calling out to a lover.  Its disguise hides its true form and it can even appear as a dedicated follower of God, but in reality, it is its own god and is deadlier than the most poisonous snake. 
    "Jezebel strokes the back of those who listen to its lies and holds them close as it nurses them with its poison of self pity, false comfort and security.  And all the while it is stirring up rebellion and dissention and is impregnating them with judgmentalism, criticism, false pride, false prophecy, false spiritual gifts, hatred, rage and even murder. 
    "As the poison of idolatry and self importance warps the minds of its victim, it begins to coil itself around them like a constricting snake.  They seem to sense the gentle pressure of its spiritual body and deceptively believe that they are under a covering of self protection which allows them to do and say whatever appeals to them at the time.  Jezebel's idolatrous lies cry out, 'Power of self!' rather than 'Power of God!'  The pressure of the constrictor increases slowly at first so that as time goes by, they are unaware that the physical symptoms they are experiencing are due to the fact that the spirit is crushing them physically as well as emotionally, mentally and even spiritually.
    "It begins to violently oppose and strike out against those who would confront it, but all the while it is luring others into its web of deception, searching for its next victim.  The snake-like body has been crushing the soul and body of its unsuspecting carrier and its jowls that had emitted poison, now reverse the process and begin to suck the life out of its victim like a black widow feasts on the blood of its mate.  Too late, the victim is laid on their sickbed, and at their death, the spirit that has become hungry for new blood transfers to its next targeted victim."
    "What a visual!" Casie commented.
    "I've often wondered why I see specific spirits," Nicole said.  "But I've come to realize that as evil becomes more prevalent in these last days and there are more demonized people, when I recognize a face or character in these demons, it helps me to be able to target them more quickly and accurately."
    "That makes sense.  Who's the second hit man?"  
    "Behemoth, alias 'Gluttony' is hit man number two," Nicole said.  "His fee is the worship he gains through the dependency of people in their love for escape, excessiveness, laziness and unrestrained passions.  Job 40:16 says that His power is in his stomach muscles.  His goal is to become the god of their belly, their appetites and desires; a god that they crave and deceptively believe that they can't live without. 
    "I see him as a gigantic reptilian, gangster type demon with a huge overcoat on.  I see him walking up beside a vulnerable or ignorant person, someone who's in physical or emotional pain, someone who is needy and looking for help, comfort or relief, or someone who just loves to fulfill the desires of their flesh.  Behemoth looks for those whose eyes are not focused on Jesus.  He stands next to this person, opens up one side of his overcoat and shows his 'free' goods.  Once the person takes the bait, they have no idea that they have just become a victim, ensnared and
