Spirituality: Victory Update! Bellevue Spiritual Power Plays

"A friend of God seeks to hear God's truth for the purpose that as soon as he or she knows that it is God's truth, the person realizes that God is speaking directly to him/her and abandons everything and everyone else to follow with God." Reference John 4:23-25, John 15:14-16

The Truth Seekers' Motive











"Thank you" -- to each of you who shared the load against the powers resisting Christ's fresh words in Bellevue. Your enduring prayers have been effectual and I am now settled into a shared apartment with a peaceful and clean environment. I can study and work in faith.

More to come, in God's timing. Please continue your faithful love for Christ and please include your prayers for me. Thank you.

Remember:

Ephesians Chapter 3

9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,




Ephesians Chapter 6

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

Christ's love,
Pastor Dee

The Truth Seekers' Motive

Spirituality Power Plays Defined, Explained and Updated, Bellevue Washington

I've been experiencing an inward "tug" (aka unction) from my Lord to give you a full picture of the spiritual dynamics that have been opposing God's will for certain persons in Bellevue, Washington. Perhaps you are one of the persons that God has chosen to visit with His power by revelation (information you need for your life or future) or by answers (questions you have sought of God and have been waiting to receive answers) or by deliverance (situations, sickness or enslavements you desparately need to escape, but can't).

Be sure, that unless you hold on tightly to get all that Christ has for you, you will lose out. I and other members of Truth Seekers Church, Bellevue have learned that the invisible power of the Evil one who opposes your freedom is too strong in this place, because he is being helped through the cooperation of pastors and church members who fight AGAINST Christ instead of FOR Christ.

If you ask for and receive, however, strength from God to endure -- you will eventually receive the intimacy of spirituality with Jesus that you long for.

A few months ago, at my job at Bellevue Community College, a call came in to my desk. It was a woman seeking entrance to the college, but the conversation turned to Bellevue, her church and a certain prophecy that her pastor received from a traveling prophet, like myself. The prophecy was important to me, because it was right on target with the most recent command God had given us in Truth Seekers Church Bellevue. Several blogs ago, I told you that I would let you know the most important direction God had given to us in Truth House Churches -- today is that day.

I believe the woman said her church was Turning Point, but I don't remember the rest. I have sought on Google and found several churches by that name. The important thing is the prophecy that they were given.

The woman relayed the message from Christ through the itinerant prophet as follows:

"Churches in the Seattle region had drifted away from the Lord into other things, but Christ would bring his people back -- but that it must happen through prayer."

My heart was gripped when I listened to this stranger calling me on the telephone at my job with this sobering message that fit right into what we in Truth Seekers House Churches had been commanded to do in an October church meeting. I told the other member, who had come to help me in Bellevue, that the Lord was commanding us to start a special type of prayer in Bellevue directly from a house church setting.

The very next Wednesday, that person turned on me and the following events took place, which is why you had not seen me writing in this blog recently.

1. Restraining orders had to be obtained through the King County Superior Court.

2. The person removed all equipment they had given for the use of the ministry.

3. I was to work the ministry in Bellevue and fulfill the Lord's command while working a part-time job and they were to work full-time and support me doing the ministry. Now everything was on me.

4. The property manager of our apartment complex instructed me to get the restraining orders and that I could continue to rent there.

5. The property manager turned on me, saying that I could not rent there and evicted me.

6. I was homeless, but God has been miraculously keeping me off the street night to night by showing me some powerful love in some of his own people, especially the one I pastor, some powerful love in God's own direct miracles for me and some powerful hate in some of his own so-called christian pastors and people.

7. I still had to go to work and school everyday, keep my grades up, keep my health up, keep my faith, love and joy UP!

8. In God's mysterious way, because I was being evicted due to the domestic violence/antiharassment proceedings, and searching for another apartment IN BELLEVUE to fulfill the Lord's love for individuals in Bellevue, I ran into a "christian" family who wanted me to rent from them.

9. Due to some major "unchristian" behaviors, attitudes and practices that the Lord required me to inform them about, the Lord commanded me NOT to rent from them, but one of them heard from God for me to be their pastor.

10. I have faithfully loved the new member by teaching them everything the Lord says about holiness and being the friend of Jesus Christ, and about spiritual power in Christ.

11. As soon as the person chose to have me pastor them, their christian family who loved me, until I had to correct them from the Lord, turned on THEM for not being a member of THEIR church -- put them out of the house they were in, took away basic living privileges for work, life and study; hounded them through other members of THEIR church. You cannot imagine what this soul ( heading to age 40) has been through!

Seeing the beautiful fruit of holiness, love for Jesus Christ and spiritual strength that has resulted in the new member, however, has comforted me. Their new love for Jesus because they understand some of what Jesus went through for all of mankind has made them committed to learning to be his friend!



The scriptures below define the spiritual power plays underway in Bellevue. Satan's target is the churches. As in the rest of the country he is fighting hard to keep the church from being known as a unique people, a people with a love that is definitely NOT FROM THIS WORLD!


There are satanic powers called PRINCIPALITIES in the air over Bellevue who influence and hold prisoner the minds of persons not escaped through loyalty to Jesus Christ. Truth Seekers Church, Bellevue is one sent by Christ to make known His wisdom to those satanic powers.



Ephesians Chapter 3

9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.




Since the command to establish prayer groups back in October, where I would live and work the ministry has been attacked. It hasn't let up yet, but is coming to a head and closure. By revelation, we know that Satan got scared. Satan is ALWAYS AFRAID OF PRAYING CHRISTIANS and when he knew that prayer groups were forming, he moved to uproot me.

13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.




As a result of my sufferings, people see my life and attitude still loving and peaceful toward Christ and those who have harmed me. They wonder how I do it? Thus, Jesus Christ and his power is made known as very REAL! God, the Father is glorified! The Spirit of God is intensified! Allelujah!

Bellevue Updates ...

The court cases are public record. Even in the public record, Satan was at work. Someone decided to alter the name in my petition and insert their own middle name for me, and simultaneously deleting the full name of the defendant against whom the restraining order had to be obtained. I am working to have that corrected. Also, the domestic violence case and anti-harassment case were and are one in the same trail and under the same number, someone also has taken liberty to try and turn it into two separate cases with two separate numbers, which the clerk would not allow me to so when I filed them. All clerks put them under the same original number. I am working to correct that also.

Here are the cases:

1. 07-2-16701-3SEA

which resulted in another

2. 07-2-40297-7SEA


which resulted in all that we in Truth Seekers Church, Bellevue are suffering right now.



The shame is that all this has been done at the hands of persons claiming to represent Jesus Christ in their actions, but Jesus has plenty to say about that as one of satan's many tactics in a power play:

A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

Spiritual Power Plays Are Important For You To Understand!

What is the significance for you in understanding 'spiritual' power plays and your own spirituality? Realize that when you commit to become a truly spiritual person with God, you will experience strange troubles coming to you. Remember that evil people don't like you learning to be nice. YOU are the only thing that makes this world worth living in. . .


Matthew 5:14-16 (King James Version)

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Spirituality: Self-Promotion and Spiritual Effects

"A friend of God seeks to hear God's truth for the purpose that as soon as he or she knows that it is God's truth, the person realizes that God is speaking directly to him/her and abandons everything and everyone else to follow with God." Reference John 4:23-25, John 15:14-16

The Truth Seekers' Motive

What Is Self-Promotion?

Self promoting is doing things to deliberately draw the mind, heart or affections of people to you! The Bible says, in Proverbs 31, that a holy woman will allow her manner of living to speak, causing others to admire her and therefore desire God. This spiritual principle applies also to men confessing holiness.

Our hearts must be for people to turn their minds to Jesus Christ, not to you or to me for praise. All secret inner thoughts and efforts on your part to get someone to admire YOU, praise YOU, compliment YOU, lift up YOU -- fall under "self-promotion".

The key words in the matter of self-promotion are "efforts on your part". God has designed that if you do right, people will notice -- that is inevitable. Even if they hate you for it, they cannot help but see godliness. It is a light. It is one thing for people to notice, it is a completely different thing for you to ask them to notice or command them to notice.

This is why, although I have been well taught how to optimize this blog for search engines to find it, I have chosen not to. All things that I believe fall under the category of self-promotion have been removed. The Spirituality Blog will be drawn to because of the content of messages from Christ -- no networking, backward links, etc..


Yes, God does want people to notice the character of person that Satan had made us into, then the much better person you or I became after following Jesus Christ. Yes, God does want people to notice what He has done to our status of living on earth compared to what Satan had done to our physical lives. God announces to us, in His written word, that the reason for his loving and merciful dealings with each of us is so people will see HIM and desire HIM. In this manner, He will lovingly be able to rescue as many as possible from the awful grip of the Evil one.


Here are some examples of where God tells us his purposes:

Deuteronomy 8:18

But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
Deuteronomy 8:17-19 (in Context) Deuteronomy 8 (Whole Chapter)


Proverbs 18:16

A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
Proverbs 18:15-17 (in Context) Proverbs 18 (Whole Chapter)



Psalm 75:5-7

5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.

6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.

7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.



All scriptures taken from www.Biblegateway.com (King James Version)

Self-Promotion Destroys Being Like Christ

It is not possible to participate in self-promotion and also to become a spiritual person. The two activities are opposed to one another like darkness and light. Two different kinds of hearts are involved. Two different kinds of motives are being pursued. Two different kinds of love are being indulged in. Two different kingdoms are being advanced - a kingdom of pure love (Jesus' love) versus a kingdom of self-love.

The Kingdom of Self-Love

The source of all self-promotion began when God's created angel, Lucifer, started out content with what God had made him and thankful to God for it. At some point, Lucifer began to admire what he was, what he knew, what effect he was having on the other angels (all things that God did for him). At that point, he stopped being thankful to God and began to desire to be thought of and treated with respect, like God was. He was no longer content to be submitted under God, but wanted to be "equal".

From that point, he started thinking new suspicious thoughts about God, accusing God of being arrogant and desiring all praise to himself. So he started talking against God to the other creatures. Each time, he was becoming more arrogant and obsessed with admiring himself. So, God had to kick him out of Heaven. His name was changed to Satan and we have been suffering his evil presence ever since.







ISAIAH CHAPTER 14


9 Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.

10 All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us?

11 Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee.

12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;

17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?

18 All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.

19 But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.

20 Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.



Some of the lying works of self-promotion that I have witnessed with my own eyes during my travels amongst the churches include:

Getting friends to park their vehicles on a church lot so there is the appearance of a large crowd of attendees, so people will think my church is sound because lots of people are there- credibility by numbers.


Getting a famous singer or speaker to come to my church so that people will think my church is a big deal because the famous singer came to us - Credibility by association.


Creating and marketing my books and other wares within the church so people will remember my name, versus other messengers of Christ - Credibility by reputation.


Preachers refusing to minister the Word of God to small churches because their "fee" cannot be paid and, instead, demanding that a small church organize a bunch of other churches to bring that preacher to town - with a fan fare of flyers, radio and television advertising -Credibility by networth.

Two fascinating things about a heart of self-promotion are:

1. Onlookers cannot always disern it and

2. Once it is accepted practice, people forget how sinful it is and do not realize they are doing it!


Sometimes what looks like self-promotion is only getting Christ's message out! Other times, it's getting yourself out! Only Jesus knows for sure AND the person who is doing it.

Let us come out of these methods of the Christian System and return to the simple worship of loving God and people through living a holy life. This will expose, purify and purge the Evil one's touch upon our hearts and our deeds of self-promotion.

Spirituality: Response To Power Plays

"A friend of God seeks to hear God's truth for the purpose that as soon as he or she knows that it is God's truth, the person realizes that God is speaking directly to him/her and abandons everything and everyone else to follow with God." Reference John 4:23-25, John 15:14-16

The Truth Seekers' Motive







When you do what Christ wants, the persons who need His help will tell others, but it is not your own effort that "tells others" or draws others to yourself."





With this understanding, I will today remove all items from this Spirituality Blog that I have reason to believe fall into the category of self-promotion.

The Power of Self-Promotion In Society

Self-promotion has become acceptable in the world and in the church, but not in Christ. Self-promotion is the spirit of the world and of the anti-Christ.


It is difficult to notice that we are participating in self-promotion because it is the normal way of everyday life in our generation. When what is not right becomes commonly performed as right, only God's intervention can save us from that deception.

My goal in today's labors upon the Spirituality Blog will be to allow the simple Words of God to stand on their own power and merit. Persons coming to this web page will come only because the spirit of God is alerting them to come. No more will there be person's coming because they were notified through internet efforts to promote the site -- such as backward linking, social networking, etc..

Such marketing efforts are fine for man's business world, but the Father's business is holy, noble, sacred, lofty. It must not descend into being treated as the common things of this world are treated. Starting today, you will be presented with a lean version of this page focusing upon content only. The "draw" to the page will also be "content only".

There will always be some of satan's people coming whenever the spirit of God is working, so I ignore them. For those whom God draws, may you continue to grow ever closer in friendship with Christ Jesus, your only legal entry into the spirit world.

I close with these verses from Scripture which will bring all of us back to the simple worship of Jesus Christ -- He is the Truth and the only standard of spirituality:

Proverbs 27:2

"Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips."

The following scriptures taken from www.Biblegateway.com

Philippians 2:5-14

5. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

6. Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7. But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

8. And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

9. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

10. That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

11. And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

12. Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

13. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

14. Do all things without murmurings and disputings:



John 6:14-16

14. Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

15. When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.

16. And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,


In this last verse, observe that Jesus kept his focus on why the Father sent him. He was not here to use his spiritual power and knowledge to promote himself into presidential leadership or other political positions. He withdrew from public appearance and departed to privately continue the Father's business. His business and his path remained sure -- teaching His disciples how to live a holy life in the reverential fear of God and exert spiritual power against the evil in this world. Amen.
