honestly these 'characteristics of the jezebel spirit' just read like a reverse horoscope for people you don't like...

three or more of those characteristics could describe pretty much -any- troublesome people...do you think they -all- have 'the jezebel spirit'?
Horoscopes are a form of divination. The above is a list of traits of people associated with this particular demon. I fail to see how they are similar. Maybe you can explain your point?

I would say the more traits you have from that list increases the probability that you may have a jezebel issue. No one can say for sure based on a list. The only sure way is to hear from the Holy Spirit or to directly encounter this demon.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against spiritual wickedness in high places. Is there a demon behind every bush? Of course not. But there is power in the heavens that works against anything that exalts the name of Christ our Faithful Lord and God. Opposition to the Sovereignty of God is one of the primary objectives of our deceptive adversary. There is indeed great liberty granted to all believers and those that have experienced redemption from sin understand this. I believe that there is a spiritual government and administration in the heavenly realm that influences and attempts to control the actions of men and women to lead they away from the Spirit of Truth. I am not obsessed with the study of demons nor am I ignorant of their plots and trappings. We are to walk as children of light in the Kingdom of Light that is Governed by the Father of Lights. The antithesis is the Kingdom of darkness ( which we have been delivered from) and yes there is a governing body in the kingdom of darkness. The faces that oppose Christ are rarely the twisted and contorted images that I have imagined but rather ones of distinction even wise in character and definitely strategists.

Hey,
I was just wanting to ask a few questions pertaining to this Jezebel, one of two is (multi part question), Where and When did this doctrine of Jezebel originate and from who? and the second, Are those with the signs of Jezebel, could you say, possessed?

Amen. I agree with everything you posted. Unfortunately many Christians are ignorant and willfully so of the schemes of the enemy. Even though there is an epic war going on all around us, a war that started ages ago and many Christians remain clueless.

I would not refer to the concept of a Jezebel spirit (demon) being doctrine. It came out of deliverance ministries. It does not come from the bible, although I believe it is hinted at in Revelation 2:20. I have personally encountered this demon twice. The first time it was in a godly women and dear friend of mine. The secound time it was in a man and it was cast out.

There are many, many different types of demons and they all have a name. That name is not a personal name but more of a title. The first time I encountered a demon I demanded to tell me it's name. I was green back then and this seemed to be the right thing to do. It said it's name was "depression". Obviously the name of the demons suggests something it focuses on.

The bible only mentions one demon by name, "Legion". But other names of demons that are very common are Fear, lust, addition, rage, etc. Some demons are named after other people, animals and idols like: Ashtoreth, Baal, Leviathan Athena, Krishna, Kali, Ahab and the list goes on and on and on...

When Satan and his minions were cast out of Heaven, they separated themselves from true creativity. Satan often copies the things or concepts and uses them to achieve his purposes. No doubt satan reads the bible and knows it well. Jezebel shows up in Kings. Satan has copied the traits of the original Jezebel into a whole mess of demons. Jezebel is a very common demon and every deliverance ministry has encountered it.

It is more commonly found in women but men can also have it. The women who have this do exhibit some common personality traits but it widely varies in intensity. Typically they are domineering, controlling, manipulative, make others feel likes they are walking on egg shells around her, often women with this demon are very religious, they may start a whispering campagn against leaders in the church, use false accusations to discredit them, dominate their husbands and resent him for it.

There was one lady in my former church who fit many of the triats above. She was always saying false prophecies and worked her way into the hierachy of the church. Then she started to level false accusations against the pastor and a woman in charge of the prayer ministry on seperate issues. She would invite people to her home and then get them to believe her lies. Eventually she was kicked out of the church but she continued to make her false claims to anyone who would listen to her. She continued to contact people and try to get them to meet her, then she would do her best to convince them that the pastor had serious issues. It caused a great deal of grief for the pastor. I don't have any facts that say she was indwelt by this foul demon, but her actions were 100% consist with a Jezebel infected women.

There are numerous books, videos, blogs and articles on the web about this.

Here is a good video on the spirit of Jezebel.

2 Timothy 3   1But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5having a form of godliness but denying its power.
2 Timothy 4
3For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
these are things that destroy ,homes and churches. they echo why they need to be outside the home or church.

the idea behind newspaper horoscopes is that they are so generic that they can apply to almost anyone...'geminis are poisitive'...'scorpios achieve things'...and so on...

the list of traits you posted is similarly generic...three or more of them are likely to describe just about anyone you don't like...

Where and When did this doctrine of Jezebel originate and from who?
"The church that successfully wars against Jezebel will be a church that inherits the glorious "morning star," which will be visible outward glory, a symbol of hidden, inward purity. It will be a church that exercises "authority over the nations," uniquely because it has conquered the Jezebel spirit which sought to strip God's servants of authority."

i guess that's all part and parcel of the charismatic world.
if people werent pretending they were prophets to begin with this wouldnt come up i guess.
not to mention all that silly strategic warfare stuff.
chasing non-existent devils all over the place:)

if pastors are committing adultery theyre sinning.
how hard is that.
lol.

.....

Jezebel hates the prophets, for the prophets speak out against her. The prophets are her worst enemies. When she wars, it is to stir people against the message of the prophetic church. More than she hates the prophets, she hates the word they speak. Her real enemy is the spoken Word of God.

I see what you mean. So you think they are not specific and too general. I agree with that. It is a generalized list of traits. There are some diseases that have the same symptoms of other diseases, so the symptoms are general. Just because one has some of those traits on that list or even none at all, does not mean anything conclusive. That's why it is best to hear it from the Holy Spirit directly or by a direct confrontation with that demon.

This is a very common demon in deliverance ministries and very damaging to both the individual who has it and to the body of Christ. It is often hard to get free of too, but with God, all things are possible.

I will answer these questions later when I get to a computer later on today, as for Joyce Meyer? She is involved in a truly evil ministry! Which I will go into in another thread soon! She is part of the word of faith movement which uses eastern philosophy and meditation on gaining materials, she has stated that we are all little gods, masters of our own universe, following her teaching is very dangerous, please be wary of her. And ministers like her, that ministry is leading people away from the true Gospel! They preach a different Jesus than the One found in the holy Bible!
I am so glad someone else can speak up about her. I have heard this and people
get upset when it is revealed. I quit following her few years ago. Thank you for truth.

I believe the reference is to one of the seven churches in Revelation that suffers the teachings of Jezabel. Allegorically speaking it is an evil spirit, but this is understood, not delineated. So that being said it is a matter of how the believer believes. Either way, it is a teaching of the evil Jezabel's idolatry and practices.

ok show me a passage in the bible that says there is a 'spirit of jezebel'

please and thank you

Wow!! What a great thread!! You all have good points. Thanks Carey for the op. About the term " the spirit of Jezeebel," I heard the term 7 yrs. Ago from a female friend who was warning me about someone that I was dating at the time. I took her advice and stopped seeing her. My friend also said that as a spiritual man that it is extremely important to know that I am not getting involved with someone who has this type of spirit. She was so right. I can never go through that again. Imagine being in love with someone like that. I saw her face transform twice into the face of a girl that I dated when I was a teenager who had the same spirit. That spirit is very seductive and dangerous. You don't want it in your life. I know that certain demon spirits already chase me. I'm used to them. But this one really scares me. The relationship changed my life. I haven't looked at women the same way since. Only the power of God got me out of that situation. It took a long time to get rid of her. It was crazy. I don't know if it was the spirit of jezeebel, but that is a good name for it.

Jezebel is in the churches, but it has very little to do with feminism.

do you think yeshivel (yiddish) or in english jezebel is accidently or by coincident in the Church ? yeshivel/jezebel is purposely put into Church, to corrode Christian belief from within. only look at who started and finances those so called Churches, those are the same people (pharisees) who throw "jezebel" in, for us to keep our mouths running about it, while the deceivers gain attention and money over it and by quoting scripture to them you only pour more water on their mills and they gain more attention and money.

if you are realy a Christian, what can you do about this? simple LEAVE the made by pharisees fake Churches! more you cant do, simply dont give them the attention and they will die out by themselves.
Notice their certain resistance against the Holy Scripture, that comes from no one else than from the antiChristis and they are a plenty in this World.

Abide in the Word of God.

Witchcraft is to manipulate people or situations to gain power, control, or bring about a desired outcome; by way of casting spells or by any other"power" that does not come from God. People do this with sexuality, imagery, hypnosis, music, etc.... everyday. The most powerful tool of witchcraft is to convince everyone it doesn't exist. Mind control is witchcraft. Does mind control not exist too?

I do believe the spirit of jezebel has a lot to do with feminism. She ruled over her husband, of course, there is the spirit of Ahab as well. I've seen men who are cowardice to their positions in God's order. The spirit of Jezebel is loud. I think she is the 1st in scripture to cut her hair as a man's. I think this is really a sign of the times we are in, as scripture says woman will have the rule over you and children will be your oppressor. I think this has been magnified in this generation. Showing once again we are in the last generation.

Just remember the Bible clearly tells us that a TRUE Christian CAN NOT be posessed by a demon spirit. A true believer will be recognisable by a love of the Word of God. And NOT just in word but in deed.... Meaning they love to actually read the Bible (not just in Church) and talk about the Bible and spiritual things.

Ty so much for sharing and standing up for the truth on this one. The main reason why this evil spirit persist its influence in many circles is tolerance. The people "suffer" Jezebel to have her poisonous influence. Instead of setting the foot down and refuse her the pulpit.
Instead of putting the foot down, it needs to be put to the seat of the pants of some of these people who bring damnable heresy into the congregation and subvert whole households with this lie.
