TOG returns to the spiritual, literary classic, Saint Teresa of Avila's Interior Castle. We dive back into the Mystical Fifth Mansions - Chapter 04. Where Teresa gives a deeper explanation on the Prayer of Quiet, she describes it as a step in the Sacrament of Spiritual Marriage, a Seventh Mansion experience in the interior life of deep prayer. In the Fifth Mansions, she explains that in this stage of spiritual development, the soul is in a state of per-betrothal to the indwelling Jesus Christ. So pull up a chair by the fire and tune in to the podcast as we examine the details of the mystical prayer of union through the words of our experienced guide, Saint Teresa of Avila!
Post Edit Correction - on the third waters. I gave the wrong representation.
In the Third Water the Lord Himself takes over the watering of the
garden through irrigation. Whereas in the First Water the well could run
dry and one would have to wait until it filled up again, in this Third
Water the Lord provides an endless stream of water for irrigation. This
is the Fifth Mansion in which the Lord enters the center of the soul. In
the prayer of simple union the interior faculties of memory and
imagination are penetrated with the divine light of the Holy Spirit. As
the soul becomes transformed it undergoes a radical detachment from
worldly concerns. The garden is becoming lush with blooms. There are
different levels or intensifications of this mystical prayer of union.
Once the soul has experienced this indwelling it retains a certainty of
the experience.
Thank you for stopping by our little sacred place on the Internet. If you have any questions about the Fifth Mansions Chapter 04, leave them in the comments, or over on our Facebook page, A Field Guied to Advanced Spiritual Warfare. Next time we visit the Interior Castle we will be diving into the deeper supernatural Sixth Mansion. Very exciting topics lay ahead!
God Bless

Welcome to episode 31! In this podcast, we dive back into my book, A Field Guide to Advanced Spiritual Warfare - Chapter 07. Our topic is hearing God and prophetic ministry in spiritual warfare and supernatural ministry. An exciting subject matter for me, I reflect on my history of learning to hear God and developing my prophetic ministry. I have been to some crazy places and had interesting supernatural experiences that I glean from in presenting this topic. We'll discuss how you can learn to hear from God. ! will also discuss beginning prophetic ministry to advanced topics of ministry etiquette. And we answer some interesting questions along the way.

Already correcting myself, I fumbled the scripture of the lying spirits in the podcast as 2 Samuel. At time = 49:05 minutes.
Whoops.
1 Kings 22:19-22 (ESV)
19 And Micaiah said, “Therefore hear the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing beside him on his right hand and on his left;
20 and the Lord said, ‘Who will entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ And one said one thing, and another said another.
21 Then a spirit came forward and stood before the Lord, saying, ‘I will entice him.’
22 And the Lord said to him, ‘By what means?’ And he said, ‘I will go out, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ And he said, ‘You are to entice him, and you shall succeed; go out and do so.’

In episode 30, Tales of Glory, I host another fireside chat, discussing the topic of deliverance ministry with children, and how you discern Dissociated Identity Disorder from demonic presence. What is the difference between a triggered-switched in part and a demonic manifestation? How do you minister with children who have been traumatized? This fireside chat is off the cuff. Sorry guys, none of my amazing Powerpoints. Hope you enjoy!!

Tales of Glory returns with A Field Guide to Advanced Spiritual Warfare - Chapter 06 - Strongholds!!!
In this episode, we dive into Strongholds! What are they? How do they differ from the contemporary Christian literature deliverance perspective? Are strongholds our behaviors or demonic oppression? Are all people seeking deliverance ministry demoniacs as they claim? How do you discern those who are demonized from those who are dealing with their behaviors? Deliverance ministry can be tricky and deceptive. How do you identify dissociative identity disorder and trauma survivors? How is this ministry different from deliverance ministry? We cover these perplexing issues that surface in most ministry sessions involving strongholds.
Deliverance ministry and strongholds are not as straight forward as popular Christian authors tend to portray. They can be nasty, tangled, and complex to resolve. This episode covers the complex spiritual road to healing the whole spectrum of strongholds.

Tales of Glory returns to The Field Guide of Advanced Spiritual Warfare book, we're in chapter 5, Spiritual Authority in Christ! What is spiritual authority? Why does Jesus Christ have preeminence over all gods? What are the lower case 'gods'? In this episode, I bring the Tales of Glory listeners up to date where I am at with researching spiritual warfare, especially, as it pertains to the topic of spiritual authority in Jesus Christ. We're always growing in this ministry. There is so much to learn and so many ways to grow in Jesus Christ and His marvelous creation.
Lots of good updates in this chapter. Should make it interesting for those of you who are following along in the book, or already read the book, or took a spiritual warfare class from me in the past. Lots of exciting material, packed into a whopping hour and a half (my apologies to Wendy for making a long show this go around!). But it's some good stuff and brings you up to speed on where I am at in this particular subject since I wrote the book in 2017 (way back during the pre-pandemic days).
Enjoy the material! Below are the links to the youtube video with the powerpoints, and links to the podcast sites.
Thank you for tuning in! Our next podcast, when we dive back into A Field Guide for Advanced Spiritual Warfare, I might dive into prophetic ministry and spiritual warfare, chapter 7. Pondering this one, for next time. Or I could stay on course with the book and do the next chapter (6) on strongholds. I'll check in with Jesus and see where He wants to go with this.

Tales of Glory dives into Santa Teresa of Avila's Fifth Mansions Chapter
02.
In chapter 02, Saint Teresa explains to us her classical metaphor of ascetical and mystical prayer life - the silk worm and the butterfly. Here she explains how the silk worm is like a soul in the First through Third mansions, developing from a beginning to advance prayer interior life. As the soul prays, like the worm feeding on the mulberries, the soul begins to go deeper (cocoon) in Jesus Christ. Where it makes its home before emerging later as a butterfly (a soul in the mystical states of prayer life).
Pull up your cozy lounge chair next to the fireplace. Pour
your self your favorite beverage and sit back as the Doctor of Prayer of
the Catholic Church edifies us in these amazing experiences with God in
our interior life.
I found this hard bound copy of Saint Teresa of Avila's Interior Castle on Thriftbooks website. It's the same manuscript we use on Tales of Glory and the HTML manuscript I post in the show notes section here.

The last weekend of January 2021, I had the amazing opportunity to fly out to Texas and equip the saints in spiritual warfare at the OpenDoor church. Wonderful church, with an amazing congregation. The class had over 200 saints in attendance. Again an amazing time out there, thank you Tim and Cindy McGill, and Pastor Otis, and SOKE, for having me come out there.
In the class I covered four major topics as a primer for spiritual warfare ministers, topic 3, or module III, Mark 9:29 Ministry - Battles in the Occult and Exorcism, I gleaned over quickly to focus on the more pertinent module IV, on Dissociation. So I didn't feel I gave module III the proper time and justice. But when you're trying to obedient and respect the time given to you, you adapt accordingly. But I felt afterwards, I wanted to provide the material to the students. Here is module III, from the class. To the Open Door church, thank you for your hospitality. I wanted to make sure you guys got this in its in entirety. God Bless!!!!
Please note, this is an introductory course to the ministry of exorcism for pastors and counselors. This is not a comprehensive course on the ministry.
Module I - The Preeminence and Diety of Jesus Christ
Module II - Luke 10:17 Deliverance Ministry
Module III - Mark 9:29 Ministry Battling the Occult and Possession <- You are Here!!!
Module IV - D.I.D.

The information from this podcast comes from the M16 Ministries equipping course for Christian Pastors and Counselors - Introduction to Spiritual Warfare Ministry 101.
An early version of Module I - the Diety of Jesus Christ, TOG Ep 23, while I was putting together this class back in December of 2020. I refer to this at times in this podcast.
In this episode of Tales of Glory, Fireside Chat edition, we look at mystical experiences of locutions as they apply to discerning internal voices. Is a demonic voice always demonic? Can a dissociated identity (a part) take on the appearance of a demonic manifestation.
Pastors and counselors, what do you do when you think it is a demonic presence, but the demon won't leave? We cover some important topics in Christian inner healing and spiritual warfare.
How do you discern demons from dissociated human parts? Some good points on ministry are presented to help you become a more effective deliverance minister, inner healing minister, and Christian counselor.
