Healing cannot happen unless you confront the demonic strongholds attacking you. After reading this book, you will discover the strategies of Python, and Leviathan; identify their primary targets; and learn how to defeat them. You will gain confidence and understanding to sever the strongholds gripping your life. Instead of being constricted by serpent spirits, you will walk free in the power of Christ. Jesus gave us the power to trample serpents and have authority of the power of the enemy in Luke 10:19. Isaiah 27:1-3 identifies Leviathan as a twisting, fleeing serpent. This spirit operates in relationships at all levels and twists people's words, shooting darts between people and causing division. Not only does it ruin relationships, but healing minister Katie Souza believes it ruins our health and our daily lives. The Serpent and the Soul shows you the many ways we allow the Leviathan (serpent) spirit into our lives and the impact it has on us. Python is another serpent spirit and it constricts our finances and causes lack and misalignment in our lives and our physical bodies. So many misunderstand or overlook the connection between idolatry, witchcraft, and these serpent spirits and the impact they have our bodies. Souza has seen this time and time again throughout her years of ministry. But there is good news. You can break the serpents' deadly grip through genuine repentance of pride, unforgiveness, and other doors these spirits use to gain access to your life. Your relationships can thrive again, and you can prosper and live in health and peace. This book will impart biblical understanding of Python, Leviathan, and other serpent spirits and provide you with powerful prayers and spiritual tools for breaking free from their control. God's healing, restoration, and prosperity are available to you when you break the connection of the serpent and the soul.

Just because you feel like you're in bondage, it doesn't mean you have to stay there. After reading this book, I will have the insight needed to rupture the enemy's grip on my life. I will gain the invaluable tools needed to fight in the spirit and take up my God-given authority as more than a conqueror in Christ Jesus. Many believers are not victorious and not living lives of purpose and destiny because they don't understand the schemes and wiles of the devil. Using powerful teachings, this book will unveil and expose the devil and his kingdom to the very core of his ministry, strategies, and weapons he uses against the church today. The church has fallen asleep. We do not understand the things of the Spirit. We don't understand the enemy of our souls. He comes to kill, steal, and destroy using satanic strategies, game plans, and arsenals of weapons that he wants us to believe are nonchalant, easygoing, harmless, and unpredictable. The church is not teaching and equipping believers to teach our hands to war in the spirit. In Psalm 144:1, David asked God, "Lord, teach my hands to war." Now, instead of our hands being taught to fight the good fight, we find ourselves in handcuffs--limited, depleted, and spiritually anemic. This book will help you unlock your spiritual handcuffs so you can understand the works of the devil and expose him before he sets foot on the battlefield of your life. You will learn how to crush the head of the serpent in any season of your life, and how you can see him coming in the blind spots of your walk with the Lord. It's time for believers to be trained, equipped, and become a spiritual army. It's time to fight and expose the so-called devil and his entrapments. We will rise up and take back what he has stolen from us once and for all in the unmatchable name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and our Savior. Jesus will be proud that He picked us for the ultimate battle.

The Treasured Guide to Spiritual Growth and EnlightenmentThe Secret of the Golden Flower is an ancient Chinese text, passed on for centuries, in which Taoist mystics reveal the path to true enlightenment. The first written version was believed to have originated with Lü Dongbin, a legendary scholar, poet, and spiritual master. This remarkable and important work, first published in the United States in 1931, is Cary F. Baynes's elegant English translation of sinologist Richard Wilhelm's 1929 German translation of the original Taoist texts. This edition includes insightful philosophical commentary by psychologist Carl Jung which helps explain the metaphysical aspects of the text, providing valuable insights for westerners.In the text, symbols for light represented awareness, which is normally directed outward toward externals. The method of redirecting one's consciousness inward towards the self through a straightforward form of silent meditation and breathing was known as "turning the light around." Through this process of channeling energy beyond the limits of the discriminating intellect, one's psyche-indeed, one's fundamental being-can gradually open and blossom into an awakening of the mind and spirit. The result can be metaphorically pictured as a bright "golden flower" mandala, representing the rewarding end goal of a personal alchemy of inner transformation. The simple method described has been called "Zen with details." Like a practical workbook for achieving enlightenment, this clearly written meditation manual explores foundational techniques to experience elevated states of consciousness. It is nothing less than a spiritual seeker's road map to discovering the secret to peace of mind. This book is also available from Churchill & Dunn in paperback (ISBN 1648374085 ).

1001 true magic techniques for achieving your heart's desire... magic that should bring you new health, new happiness, new prosperity. For Cyclomancy, as Mr. Young states, clearly proves that magic does exist and shows you how - without so much as lifting a finger - incredible results may be achieved. To give you just a brief sample, Mr. Young states that this book shows how you may... - Move objects without touching them; - Hear a conversation going on anywhere, any time; - Travel any place with your Astral Body and gain first-hand information unobtainable by any other means; - Roll back your age and find yourself young again; - Make others see only what you tell them they see; - Materialize objects out of thin air. Mr. Young points out that Cyclomancy (another name for White Magic) is simply the use of certain hidden powers that we all possess. Powers given to us long before books were invented. Forgotten powers. For example, like most people you probably don't remember how to move objects without touching them. But you possess the power to do it. Powers like X Ray Vision, Astral Projection. Hypnotic Mental Attraction and Power Hearing, to name just a few. And yet these magic powers are not difficult to use at all. On the contrary, they require no manual dexterity, no expensive equipment of any time. Just read the instructions and do the exercises, says Mr. Young, and you should awaken astonishing powers you never dreamed possible. What kinds of Powers. Powers like these: The power to know what people look like before you even see them; The power to reduce and stay slim without starvation; The Power to slow down or halt the aging process so that you may actually live many years longer; The power to weaken a dangerously defiant person with the Psychic Harpoon; The power to compel someone who ignores you romantically to notice you with keen interest; The power to send and receive messages through space - across a room, a city, or a continent - to anyone, anytime.

Inscribed upon the cross when Jesus was crucified were the Latin words "Jesus Nazarenus Rex Iudeorum." Pontius Pilate was the author of that famous inscription. Latin was Pontius Pilate's mother tongue. Authorities competent to translate and pass upon the correct translation into English agree that it is "Jesus the Nazarene Ruler of the Judean." There is no disagreement among them of that. The word 'JEW' did not occur anywhere in the English Language until the 18th Century. Jesus referred to himself as a Judean. The modern day 'Jews' were historically Khazars or Chazars, a Mongolian Nordic tribe who roamed northern Europe.This book is a copy of a letter addressed to Dr. David Goldstein LL.D., of Boston Massachusetts by its author Benjamin H. Freedman on October 10, 1954. It is a warning to America from a Jewish defector.
