Summary
This conversation explores spiritual responses to betrayal and spiritual attack, using the Feast of Passover and the biblical example of Daniel as focal points. Speakers describe how an 'excellent spirit'—a posture of right-hearted worship and trust in God—acts as protection during times of betrayal, allowing believers to maintain faith, honor authorities despite hostility, and experience cleansing and renewal through the feasts of Passover and Unleavened Bread.
Show Notes
Context: A strong spiritual assault occurred before a recent service, leading some to feel betrayed.
  • Passover described as 'the feast of betrayal'—connections made to Judas and Pharaoh.
  • Daniel as the model: 'excellent spirit' (Daniel 6:3) provided protection amid powerful opposition.
  • Practical emphasis: focus on your own spirit before the Lord rather than assigning blame.
  • Passover/Unleavened Bread: times for cleansing, repentance, and becoming a 'new creation.'
  • Worship in the presence of the enemy—asking for grace to continue worshiping and serving God.
  • Action items: identify one or two attitudes/behaviors to remove during Passover season for deeper renewal.

  • Quotes
    • “If your spirit is right before God, really excellent, it is the greatest defense you have.”
    • “The Feast of Passover is the feast of betrayal.”
    • “Have that right spirit before the Lord, because I think that's everything.”
    • “We will not only worship in the presence of our enemy, but you will spread a table before us in the presence of our enemy and make our cup to run over.”
    • “The Feast of unleavened bread was created for cleansing, and we have a purpose.”

      Takeaway
      Betrayal and spiritual attack are experienced by many, but the most powerful response begins within — an 'excellent spirit' before God. By keeping our hearts focused on worship and allowing God to cleanse what is hindering us (especially in the Passover/Unleavened Bread season), we gain protection, clarity, and the capacity to honor even those who oppose us.
      Practically, choose one or two attitudes or reactions to surrender during this season, commit to worshiping in the midst of opposition, and expect renewal. The community's testimony shows that when people hold their spirit before the Lord, God responds with blessing, healing, and strength to walk through betrayal intact.
