HARARE
– In
our lives, we are confronted with many voices seeking our attention. While some
are genuine, others only seek to divert our focus from the truth.
The gospel and cultural
voices are some influences in our lives. However, these two often contradict in
principals.
When
culture meets the gospel
Culture is a way
people live.
“Culture is not bad
for example it teaches us to respect our elders but it is also negative when we
elevate and speak to the dead. And when the gospel meets culture it must
assimilate the good and exorcise the bad practices.
The question is not about hearing but
who is speaking. God cannot bless you when you mix the culture and bad culture tendencies.
God cannot be helped by his objects of creation. The dead cannot add anything
to your life, don’t copy the abominations of the nation,” stated Apostle Pride Sibiya
in his ongoing teaching on retrogressive cultural practice that contradict the
gospel of salvation exclusively captured by Tinzwei.
Some of the denounced practices
include, walking through fire a trend synonymous with some Indian religions. Also,
consultation of the dead, an old undertaking within the African Tradition
Religion (ART), wizardry and observation of time are all outlawed.
Whose
voice do you hear?
“When you kill someone, the blood of
the person may speak. Blood has a voice and power to speak, just like what
happened on Calvary. Don’t spill blood – it is more vocal than a voice. You
cannot silence blood. Also, avenging
spirits may manifest and you become cursed, the ground will not yield for you
or you become a fugitive, including failed marriages,” reveals Apostle
Sibiya.
He stated that familiar spirits which
operate within families have existed for centuries. These spirits he says, “Familiar
spirits can imitate our departed family members causing us to accept them
within our families. You can prophecy by a demonic spirit, which is called
divination. Demons can also speak the future. But be careful to mix the two,
only Jesus can set you free.”
The
fear factor
We are born with only two fears – the
fear of falling and loud sound, the other ones we learn as we grow.
“We were made in God’s image and each
time the devil sees you, he is reminded of the Creator. The devil is wise – he will
not use ‘mega power’ but mind games. World religions use terror strategies such
as sickness. Fear is the opposite of faith – faith mobilises God’s hand and
destroys the devil. But with fear, the opposite happens,” he mentioned.
Fear is the devil’s domain. The devil only operates in fear. When you are
afraid God cannot do anything. Fear causes one to lose power, love, causes
hatred, bitterness and revenge culminating in witchcraft.
As the servant of God revealed in a
sermon captured by Tinzwei, “Many Christians try to fight the devil in his
atmosphere, using his instruments. His setting is filled with grace for hatred.
We are losing because we are using wrong weapons, we have our own weapons.
Witches are just messengers. Fear is confusion and believing what the devil
says, while faith is belief in God. As long as fear exists, the devil is in total
control.”
Knowledge
sets you free
“When love takes over, fear dissolves.
Prophecy should build you, inspire and bring comfort. Witchdoctors, satanists,
religions and even some churches use fear in order to control people. Fear
keeps Africa in captivity. Jesus always said: Fear not…. This phrase is
mentioned 365 times in the bible,” emphasised the Glory Ministries founder.
