Fantasy

There is a demon that has one purpose in its war against you. It is to get you to fantasize. It comes at times when the battle is great, when you are tired, and this is when you notice it. But it is always working silently and subtly. It rarely is noticed in lives where things are going well. But that does not mean that it does not live there.

Fantasy is a demon that offers a false call on your life. One that your tired mind dreams up. It is a demon that speaks through disappointment’s voice, and says:

“I have a place for you where everything works out right.’.. "All you need to do is keep your mind on the enjoyable pleasure I offer."

Fantasy is false faith.

Our imaginations are great tools of God. He activates the imagination of man, and man sees new perspectives. He grasps greater possibilities. But the devil also knows about the power of imagination. It can be used to sideline you from the war, as you focus on the pleasure of what could be.

Hear God. Obey. This is the crux of the victory over fantasy. Set your mind on the truth of His word.

Real faith will operate in the realm of the possibilities of God, without diminishing it to the will of a mere man. Real faith is for a real God vision. Fantasy faith is cheating time for the devil. Real faith may not get you what you want, but it will get you to the destiny God has called.

Fantasy is tied to the Mystery of Iniquity, which is the lie you believe that keeps you from experiencing the fullness of God in your life. It is involved in every false vision and every false ministry in the earth. Fantasy is a liar.

Real faith is substantive, yet it may not seem to be active in times when patience is being built in the life of the believer. Real faith can be energizesd through imaginations when our minds are set on Him. Fantasy needs no direction, it has no need of patience. It is self-sufficient. It has no substance, it is just demonized fleshly thought.
