BOOK REVIEW: Spiritual Warrior's Guide to Defeating Jezebel
Two questions that are answered in this book are: What is the spirit of Jezebel and what is it's true agenda? A main point is that Jezebel goes largely unidentified in the Church because of the distorted teachings on the Grace of God. Often false accusations are made against innocent people while the real enemy largely goes unnoticed.
A really good point that the author makes is that although Jezebel uses control and manipulation in a big way; Jezebel is not a spirit of control. Instead it is a spirit of seduction, whose goal is to lead people; especially believers, into immorality and idolatry. Jennifer also mentioned that we are to recognize and not tolerate Jezebel but we are also not to give it so much attention that we basically exalt it. We are to put our attention on Jesus and exalt him. This book could be used as a study on one side of the fight against this spirit. There are plenty of scriptures and study information. I'm sure there area also people who do not believe in any of this and of course will not consider any of this necessary at all. But like the author said, in the fight to set the captives of Jezebel free; we need to remember that its not a text book spirit; its a real war. One that can be won, with Jesus Christ. Thus preventing a falling away from Jesus, or falling into consuming sin, and death.
I received this book from Chosen Publishers in exchange for an honest review.
