Beloved Do Not Believe Every Spirit For God Is Love
Beloved we read 1 John chapter 4 and it is one of the chapters that I have spent a lot of time in and will spend more, I am sure. I know that LOVE is the topic of this chapter from the beginning. I know God is LOVE and I know and understand what He did for us.

Read the whole chapter and I hope it helps us all grow in Christ. However what I want to talk about today is verses 1-6. I pray that we all understand that the enemy is a liar and he will deceive one if he can Jesus the word Beloved. For he loved them as He loves us and yes we are His Beloved as well…
We need to test the spirits and see where and who they are from. That is the message today “Testing The Spirits”. We need to know and understand the scripture and be aware of what is going on around us all the time.
Actually it is fairly simple if the spirit confesses that Jesus comes to us in the flesh, this spirit is of God and if the spirit does not confess this then it is not of God and beware of it and stay away from it. Let us test the spirits around us all the time. I think of Matthew 10:16 (MEV) “Look, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.”
A serpent is wise, with keen eyesight and is quick to learn. A dove is innocent, meek and gentle, this is the Holy Spirit.
Jesus knew He was putting them, the disciples, in a balancing act for as He put it, he was sending them out “like sheep among wolves.”
