Spiritual Authority – Equipping The Kodeshim

חָתַם

Our rightful authority in the earth has often been seen as Esau saw his birthright - as less than a bowl of food - instead of what our Savior bought back for us with His shed blood - a priceless gift to overcome all the supernatural princes of this fallen earth.

What is the purpose of YHWH's seal?

Bind up the testimony, seal the Law among my disciples.

Isaiah 8:16 (NASB 20)

Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

Ephesians 4:30 (NASB 20)

Alternatively, here are some of his books that include much of this info:

Here are two interviews, one with Michael Lake and one with his wife, Mary Lou Lake:

Mary Lou Lake’s book is also well worth reading:

She has a podcast series also relevant to this topic, specifically about healing for victims of trauma and abuse with Dissociative Identity Disorder.

Their Kingdom Intelligence Briefing podcast is also worth a listen.

I also recommend reading testimonies by people and from countries who experience things that we might scoff at, but are quite real, such as the ones below. (Take them with a grain of salt since they are limited by individual spiritual understanding, but take seriously the key part that we know is true: haSatan is very dedicated and organized for our destruction! And we must not be ignorant of our enemy’s devices.)
