A Sweet vs. A Bitter Spirit
The Course of the Stronghold of Bitterness
Taken from notes by Dr. Frederick Drummond, Sr.
We will draw our analogy for the manifestation of this stronghold from Hebrews 12:12-17, Genesis 25:27-34 and Malachi 1:1-5, and how it played out in the life Esau. The heart or center of this stronghold or the ‘strongman’ is gone astray in your heart. From the center or heart of the stronghold come six parts or demonic powers attached to it in support of the strongman.
Bitterness...
- clouds your judgment
- polutes your speech and
- corrupts your life.
Bitterness will slow you down until it stops you, all the while reversing the will of God for your life.
Bitterness produces a lost soul with no purpose in life. Full blown bitterness is irreversible.
Wherever you have manifested unbelief, the seeds of bitterness have been planted. God can't work in a bitter persons life because they don't have love or faith.
