“Manipulation can be defined as the exercise of undue influence through mental distortion and emotional exploitation, with the intention to seize power, control benefits and/or privileges at the victim’s expense”
Manipulation is real and has been an age old tool of the devil. The Bible tells us that the devil uses your greatest fears to control or exploit you. He has used the fear of death to hold many people captive, and continues to use other forms of guilt, silent treatment, accusation and overwhelming facts to control and manipulate people.
It is my greatest desire to inform you that the devil and people around you could capitalize on your fear to control your decisions. You can break the power of every manipulator by simply committing the keeping of your soul and life to God. The very moment you decide to give up your fear and start trusting God becomes the moment you disarm every puppet master.
Our Lord Jesus Christ tasted death to liberate many from the fear of death, which the devil used as a tool to manipulate them. After the Lord died and rose again, none of His disciples feared death nor could be controlled by death. When you learn to trust God, you begin to win over every form of manipulation.
Time is running out, we have work to do, we must plant and grow another church of the same kind in cities around us. You cannot allow the devil to continue to use people to manipulate and control you. Let go and let God. Allow God to take control and take charge of the situations of your life, and you’ll overcome every manipulation.
