Why Write? (Part 1)

Its been over three years since I posted on this book blog; so I'd like to revisit my why statement. So why am I writing THE HOUSE OF JEZEBEL: FULFILLING DESTINY IN SPITE OF YOUR UPBRINGING?!?

First and foremost, I didn't choose to write this; it's my DIVINE ASSIGNMENT. In the 10+ years when it was handed down by God, I've tried to "pretend like I didn't hear Him." I've considered "playing it safe" and waiting until "my Jezebel" passed away. I've even tried waiting long enough that "hopefully" God would have to find somebody else - ANYBODY ELSE. But please Lord, NOT ME!?!?

So it is no coincidence that over the years, I've encountered a number of adult women (and men) who were raised in their own versions of THE HOUSE OF JEZEBEL. Some of them were aware of the Jezebel in their lives, yet they continue to "play the victim" card to get through life. You know the card - their parents, guardians, caregivers, and the like are to blame for ALL of their PAST, PRESENT, & FUTURE problems.

On the other hand, there are those who simply refuse to admit the demonic hold that they themselves sense over their lives. That evil hold that's rooted in their genealogy because Jezebel is about destroying DESTINIES by destroying LEGACIES. It's that satanic hold that embeds itself during one's childhood only to manifest during adulthood (if not sooner). Yet there were signs of Jezebel's hold residing in one's thought patterns, in their self-esteem, their finances, in their health, etc. Truth be told, DENIAL will keep you from DESTINY and will kill future generations if we don't choose to STOP TOLERATING JEZEBEL!!!!

To admit that one was raised in THE HOUSE OF JEZEBEL is to lay the framework for exploring and excavating the roots of JEZEBEL thus keeping such demonic vices from utterly destroying our future generations. But as long as we continue to live - figuratively and/or physically - under "her grip", under "her life lessons", we will continue to sabotage our own ability to identify, clarify, and strategize1 toward the fulfillment of our God-given destinies.

YET THERE'S HOPE!!!!!


Once you become spiritually aware of this demonic hold, you can then gather your spiritual weapons, take full charge of your authority in Christ, and THROW JEZEBEL OUT THE WINDOW of your mind, body, and spirit. Only then, can you (and I) FINALLY experience a MORE ABUNDANT LIFE IN CHRIST.
