Written February 17, 2024 at 9:07 pm. The Lord instructed me to write this and then to post it online on Monday, February 19, 2024.
At 9:30 this morning (2/17/24) – I had just left the lake house heading to the townhouse(the townhouse we lived in for 22 years is now our rental and we have been working on it to get ready to rent out again).
As I was driving I noticed clouds in the sky that looked like wings…whenever I see clouds that look like wings it is my indicator to send the Hosts to build up what needs to be built up and to tear down what needs to be torn down. I did this on the road north of the lake. Then as I got onto the next road I was praying and a thought came to my mind. ‘Why are people so cruel’. After that thought I spoke this; ‘I bind the Spirit of Cruelty and loose the Spirits of Kindness and Compassion upon the land.’
In that moment the Lord spoke to me and said, “not many recognize that spirit.” After that I was flooded with who the Spirit of Cruelty is and why he has been able to wreak so much havoc upon the earth and be essentially unnoticed.
The Lord revealed to me that the Spirit of Cruelty is in charge of many spirits. We recognize the spirits ‘under’ him and are aware of binding those spirits, but we don’t see the spirit controlling the other spirits and that is the Spirit of Cruelty.
The root of much heartache in this world is actually the workings of the Spirit of Cruelty, but we only see its ‘smaller’ pieces.
The definition of Cruelty:
1. Willfully or knowingly causing pain or distress to others;
2. Enjoying the pain or distress to others;
3. Causing or marked by great pain or distress;
4. Rigid; stern; strict; unrelentingly severe.
Spirits under the authority of Cruelty:
Anxiety, depression, suicide, loneliness, adultery, infidelity, infertility, cancer, diabetes, autoimmune disorders, blindness, deafness, fear, sudden infant death syndrome, addiction, judgement, lack, jealousy, miscarriage, abuse, insecurity, divorce, torment, confusion, hate, lying, perversion, abortion, sex trafficking, human trafficking, infirmity, sickness, disease, bondage, seduction, death, poverty, mental illness, violence, murder, robbery, bitterness, unforgiveness, offense, lust, deceit…I am certain there are many more spirits that ‘report’ to the Spirit of Cruelty…these were the ones that came to me quickly.
I believe we, as Christians need to start targeting the Spirit of Cruelty. It seems to be the ‘root’ that attacks us in so many ways.
The Spirit of Cruelty has no issue with us binding the spirits in his charge because ultimately he is the spirit truly causing the damage.
We need to look at the things we bind and pray against to evaluate if those things fall under the Spirit of Cruelty. Honestly, I think most things would fall under cruelty.
Let’s look at the list I currently have…
I would say most of these are equally cruel to the person inflicted with it and cruel to those that care about that person…
Depression is cruel.
Suicide is cruel.
Loneliness is cruel.
Adultery is cruel.
Infidelity is cruel.
Infertility is cruel.
Cancer is cruel.
Diabetes is cruel.
Auto-immune disorder is cruel.
Blindness is cruel.
Fear is cruel.
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome is cruel.
Divorce is cruel.
Torment is cruel.
Addiction is cruel.
Judgment is cruel.
Lack is cruel.
Jealousy is cruel.
Miscarriage is cruel.
Abuse is cruel.
Insecurity is cruel.
Confusion is cruel.
Hate is cruel.
Lying is cruel.
Perversion is cruel.
Abortion is cruel.
Sex trafficking is cruel.
Human trafficking is cruel.
Infirmity is cruel.
Sickness is cruel.
Disease is cruel.
Bondage is cruel.
Seduction is cruel.
Death is cruel.
Poverty is cruel.
Violence is cruel.
Mental illness is cruel.
Murder is cruel.
Robbery is cruel.
Bitterness is cruel.
Unforgiveness is cruel.
Offense is cruel.
Lust is cruel.
Deceit is cruel.
I am hearing…
”Target the root that is the Spirit of Cruelty instead of spending so much time and energy on the branches of anxiety, depression, suicide, loneliness, adultery, etc…”
“The world will change greatly when the Spirit of Cruelty is crushed by the prayers of the people. You cannot crush what you do not know exists.”
“Know this…the Spirit of Cruelty exists and it hides well under the branches of many other things.”
“Kill the root on cruelty and the branches will die too.”
I stated that I had not ever had a thought about cruelty like this before, but once the Lord brought it to my attention it all made significant sense.
Perhaps, if we change our mindset a bit and start binding the Spirit of Cruelty it may change the world of our friends and family. Perhaps it will even change the world of those who are currently strangers to us AND maybe, just maybe it really will change our entire world!
Personally, I think it is worth investing some time to see what The Lord will do when we partner with Him in our prayers to CRUSH the Spirit of Cruelty!
The Lord led me to the following scriptures after I finished typing above😊
Jeremiah 1:10 See, I have appointed you this day over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and to tear down, to destroy and to overthrow; to build and to plant.
Malachi 4:1 For behold, the day is coming, burning like a furnace; and all the arrogant and every evil doer will be chaff; and the day that is coming will set them a blaze, says the Lord of armies, so that it will leave them neither root nor branches.
Isaiah 55:11 So will My word be which goes out of My mouth; it will not return to me empty, without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the purpose for which I sent it.
Hebrews 12:15 See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springing up causes trouble and by it many become defiled.
Sunday, February 18, 2024. I believe this is necessary to add.
My husband and I were in church this morning and after worship one of our pastors got on the platform to inform us that this morning in the town just next door to our church’s location an act of violence happened.
Two police officers and one paramedic were called to a domestic ‘situation’. That domestic ‘situation’ was violent. Those 2 officers and 1 paramedic lost their lives this morning. Along with the person that caused them to go to serve and protect. Reports have stated that the gunman turned the gun on himself after he had already killed the officers and paramedic.
I personally see the Spirit of Cruelty operating in all of this…
Violence is cruel.
“Lord, we bind the Spirit of Cruelty over our state, our nation and our world. We loose the Spirits of Kindness, Compassion, Love, Joy, Grace and Mercy. We trust you to surround all those who are first responders and those who have chosen a field of service to protect us all. Pour Your protection over them and give them great peace during this very difficult time. We ask that You surround the families of the fallen heroes. Bring comfort to them in ways that don’t seem possible. Turn our world back to You Lord and cause evil to be crushed. In Jesus Name…SO BE IT!”
