THE REBELLIOUS SPIRIT

The devil or Satan is the root cause and architect of rebellion. He rebelled against God originally and right at heavenly realms. Isaiah 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.'   Genesis 3:4 Then the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die.

The human race became a victim of these wicked satanic deceptive and rebellious influences. In the entire history of humanity, the devil had ruled over all who disobeyed God regardless of whatever background.

Once a people are ignorant of God Almighty, they may never find direction in life but remain subject to a false orientation. That was the story of every ethnic group, ancestral and generational backgrounds of all languages and nations.

The Ishmaelites became the victim of the same rebellion found in the people who would have set a good example; Abraham and Sarah are to blame; they did not strictly keep watch over the word regarding the promised child. No wonder, the Lord had pity over Hagar and her son. Gen 16&21.

Truly, the rebellious spirit hovers over all individuals, families, people, and nations. But the Holy Spirit also does not show partiality; He was and still is favorable to the Jews and Gentiles alike.

We have the descendants of Ishmael today who are wonderful 

Kingdom citizens just like the Jewish and also of the heathen backgrounds.

Let the church without wrinkle, blemish and spot arise to defend and maintain the course of righteousness; and let the mentality of insistent devotion continue; the world will soon be fully occupied by the sons of God; and this will bring eternal relief and succor to God’s groaning creation. (Rom 8:19-22)
