In Tales of Glory Episode 99, we dive into A Field Guide to Spiritual Warfare, Chapter 03. What is spiritual authority, and why do we have it? How is the Great Commission tethered to our spiritual authority? We will examine what was unique about Jesus taking authority over unclean spirits in Mark 1. How is spiritual authority in Jesus tied to casting out unclean spirits, healing the sick, and raising the dead? If we have spiritual authority, why do we need the empowerment of the Holy Spirit? How do we use the charismas recorded by Apostle Paul in spiritual warfare? We look at these exciting topics in episode 99 of Tales of Glory!

Welcome to Takes of Glory - Episode 84! House Blessing and Spiritual Disernment. In this episode, I cover house blessing 101 - the basics. How do you bless a house on your own? Where do you start, and what do you do? Once I walk you through a basic house blessing, we load the M16 family truckster and go on a virtual trip with Rev Mike to the haunted St. Augustine Old Jail. We're going on a field trip to learn about our spiritual discernment. That's right, we learn to bless a house and use our spiritual discernment. In this Tales of Glory Fireside Chat episode, bring your favorite beverage and pull up a chair next to the fire.
Kindred Spirits Discovery Plus link to Old Jail Investigation - I referenced this episode S4 E4 Dead Men Tell No Tales. I don't recommend paranormal shows. Its all necromancy. But interesting to view in contrast to my discernment walk through. This paranormal team was brought in to help. But what did they help with? Nothing. Only to put the spirits on display. And draw more paranormal people to this site. No buenos!
7 “Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.8 They shall eat the flesh that night, roasted on the fire; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs they shall eat it.9 Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water, but roasted, its head with its legs and its inner parts.10 And you shall let none of it remain until the morning; anything that remains until the morning you shall burn.11 In this manner you shall eat it: with your belt fastened, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And you shall eat it in haste. It is the Lord's Passover.12 For I
will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all
the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and on all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord.13 The
blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I
see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to
destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.
YouTube - The Lord's Prayer in Aramaic - a good video to play and loop if you have spiritual activity in your house or just want an ambiance for house blessing.

The Tales of Glory podcast, episode 82, is the unauthorized and uncut episode on Jesus grieving during Mike's prayer walks. Is Jesus excited about what is happening in His mystical body, or is He grieving? Has the church become consumers of glory and experience over seeking His presence? Are we spending time with Jesus and listening to Him for ourselves, or are we outsourcing our communion to God? What does being in our secret place and contending for the impossible miracles look like? The fireside chat is now in session. Pull up your chair to the fire, open your favorite beverage, and enjoy the autumn evening with Jesus.
Here is the link to the podcast The Shift, S3 Ep 5, with Abby and Meagan I mentioned on this episode of Tales of Glory. Check them out. They had a lot of complementary discussions on this subject.
The T.W. story, mentioned in the podcast, starts around t=38:17. I encourage you to listen to the whole podcast! Enjoy!
I don't care to do this, but I point it out when I see it. This distorted approach is what I was discussing in this podcast. The New Apostolic Reform has precepts for healing prayer. Do this, check this box, and do this. So, I will leave this here. Look how this minister NEVER petitions Jesus for the healing or using their authority directly. They are running all over the place doing different prayer methodologies. This form of prayer is ritualistic. They're rituals. Not flowing with what the Holy Spirit is doing in the situation, and this is in no way conducive to contending for miracles in long-term healing battles. This ritualistic prayer declaration methodology is why Charismatics abandoned long-term prayer. It doesn't fit they're checkboxes and rituals.

Thank you for tuning in! I need to get busy on producing the last of the Carmelite Mystics training material.
Ouija boards are defined as divination, which is an abomination to God. Does a Holy Spirit Ouija board redeem this particular means of necromancing? Why are Ouija boards dangerous? What should a Christian do if they opened a portal to spirits with a spirit board? How can Christians be free from their subjugation to witchcraft and necromancing?
9 “When you come into the land that the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations. 10 There shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, anyone who practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens, or a sorcerer 11 or a charmer or a medium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead, 12 for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord. And because of these abominations the Lord your God is driving them out before you. 13 You shall be blameless before the Lord your God, 14 for these nations, which you are about to dispossess, listen to fortune-tellers and to diviners. But as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do this.
This was the Discovery Plus Medium I was trying to remember her name. She does spirit writing and drawing. An exorcism with a person coming out of this can take a year to years. Divination is a form of possession. They are possessed by their familiar spirit aka spirit guide.
Holy Saturday follows Good Friday. As Jesus' earthly body was placed into the tomb at 6 PM on Good Friday, His spirit went to the underworld - Sheol. We have some clues from scripture of what Jesus did and where He went between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday. Luke 16, the Rich Man and Lazarus parable, paints a picture of Sheol's appearance and cosmological layout. Who were the prisoners that Jesus preached to? Why were there angels in chains in the abyss? We'll look at some fascinating topics in Second Temple Hebrew angelology.
I hope you enjoyed this episode. We never seem to cover what took place on Holy Saturday. This in-between day appears to be the timeframe where Jesus did some serious spiritual warfare. There is a lot of exciting research on this topic. I could spend days talking on the subject. Thank you for stopping by!
Welcome to the Good Friday special edition of Tales of Glory. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son," - John 3:16. You're invited to listen to the most critical event in the universe's history, where Jesus Christ surrendered His life as the atonement for the sins of humankind. This episode recounts events from the last supper to Jesus' final hours on Good Friday. In Jesus' final hours, Jerusalem fell into supernatural darkness. The earth shook, and the deceased saints walked out of their tombs!

I hope this special episode of Tales of Glory blessed you. No matter what you're going through, Jesus knows and loves you. He was tortured and beaten so you may be free and experience eternal life with Him. I plan to set aside some time to create an episode of what occurred while Jesus was in Sheol.
Thank you for tuning in. May Jesus bless you with his story. God Bless Rev. Mike
Welcome to Tales of Glory Episode 54. It's a Q&A Fireside chat edition where we answer a listener's question on what is an imaginary vision. First, I cover the basics of visions in the Bible and then work up to Saint Teresa of Avila's discussions in mystical theology. Some exciting material is covered in this episode. So pull up your chair by the fire, grab your favorite beverage, and let's chat by the fire - Holy Spirit's fire!
Thank you for stopping by! If you have any questions, ask - it may end up as a podcast episode. I still have work to do on Exodus 6, Saint Teresa Interior Castle Sixth Mansions Ch1 Part 2, and some Fireside Chat topics to cover. As the Holy Spirit leads, we'll see what surfaces for episode 55. I hope you enjoy the material and it enriches your spiritual walk.
On Halloween night, Monday Oct 31, 2022, I had the pleasure of being on The Paranormal Pride show with Denise Pridemore. Denise is an old friend of mine who was a part of the Demonology Today show with the late Ken and Farah Deel. This was like a family reunion. It was a great time and since I knew Denise I opened up to a lot of questions about ministry and some things that happened in my life to get me in the place that I am at now in ministry.
Show Notes
Here are some of the Bible verses we discussed on the show. I rattled off a lot of scripture on the show. Here is most of what I remember. Go ahead looks these up. Or watch the video and see where they were cited.
Matthew 27:50-54 - during Jesus resurrection the dead are raised and walk the streets.
1 Samuel 5:1-7 - the Philistine god Dagon bows to Yahweh's presence in the Ark of the Covenant. I mistakenly identified the Philistines as the Canaanites.
Acts 16:16-18 - Paul casts the demon out of the fortune teller girl.
Acts 19:11-20 - the sons of Sceva, Jewish exorcists, using the Solomon rituals, get beat up badly by the demons. - Why the Old Catholic church shouldn't be indulging in this demonic and false ritual of exorcism (Ghosts of Shepherdstown with Nick Groff).
Luke 10:17-20 - we can all cast out demons in the name of Jesus! Deliverance scripture.
Mark 9:9-29 - scripture defining exorcism, we petition Jesus.
Joel 2:28 - the Holy Spirit is poured out on all of us. Why we're all capable of spiritual discernment. It's not a psychic gift.
1 Corinthians 12:1-11 - Spiritual discernment is a gift from the Holy Spirit, not a psychic gift (see verse 10).
Luke 16:19-31 - Sheol - Hades description and righteous in Abraham's bosom prior to Jesus' resurrection.
Genesis 6:1-4 - angelic beings- referred to as the Watchers, rebel against God and take for themselves earthly wives and mate with them.
2 Peter 2:4 - angels in chains are the Watchers from Genesis 6:1-4. Satan is not in chains ..yet.
Episode 43 - the big mic check and diving into Fr Fortea's book Interview with an Exorcist (pgs 59-61). In this episode, we examine some common beliefs of the Western Church on demonology and how it differs greatly from what the second temple Hebrews believed.
Hope you guys enjoyed the mic calibration and check. How are we sounding? Let me know if I should go through the book, Interview with an Exorcist from the beginning. Intriguing stuff in that book. Its cool to view it through the lens of the old church and the Apostles. Any questions or comments, post them below, or go find us on A Field Guide to Spiritual Warfare Facebook page.

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!!!

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.
Tales of Glory - fireside chat - BETA testing my notes for Equipping for Spiritual Warfare. Module 1 Overview of Jesus Christ the Creator and His Spirit RealmEstablishing Jesus as the Creator from scripture. Discuss heavenly divine beings and divine counsels. Hope you guys enjoy this and find it useful. I am putting together my notes for a class on spiritual warfare, deliverance, exorcism, and healing from spiritual abuse.
Special Tales of Glory Fireside chat edition, a demonologist released a video on his Facebook account, asking if Christian ghost hunting was a sin. He invited responses and comments. The content was so unbiblical and full of holes I felt a response was necessary. What does the Bible say about Christians who ghost hunt (spiritism)? I provide the scripture and fill in the blanks where the demonologist provided a very vague and unbiblical argument.
So kick back in your easy chair, stoke the fire in the fireplace and grab you cocoa. It's time for a fireside chat on how ghost hunting is a sin!

The demonologist quotes Deuteronomy chapter 18, verses 09 -12. But only reads
Deuteronomy 18:9-11
Abominable Practices
9 “When you come into the land that the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations.
10 There shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, anyone who practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens, or a sorcerer
11 or a charmer or a medium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead,
He doesn't read verse 12, nor does he read the rest of the Law on abominable practices, and these are:
Deuteronomy 18:12-14
12 for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord. And because of these abominations the Lord your God is driving them out before you.
13 You shall be blameless before the Lord your God,
14 for these nations, which you are about to dispossess, listen to fortune-tellers and to diviners. But as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do this.
Deuteronomy 18:9-14 consulting the dead in any way is an abomination to God!
In this episode, Tales of Glory - Advanced Field Guide to Spiritual Warfare - Chapter 04, we're diving back into our topic of deliverance and exorcism. The subject for this podcast is forgiveness. Here we examine why basic forgiveness deliverance ministry often fails to bring healing. Why do corporate forgiveness rituals fail? Why should you understand the difference between deliverance and inner healing? In this podcast we investigate the darker challenges of forgiveness. Are you dealing with demonic oppression or dissociative identity disorder (D.I.D.). Is D.I.D demonic? What role does forgiveness play in deliverance ministry, exorcism, and inner healing?
Some exciting topics in this installment of Tales of Glory.
Poor yourself some coffee, cocoa, or whatever beverage it is you relax by the fireplace with and tune in. We're examining topics in deliverance ministry and exorcism.
Come on in and sit a spell!

Tales of Glory - We continue into the Third Mansions! Souls in Third Mansions are far along in their prayer life. We are walking with a high degree of self-confidence, and presume we have our prayer life all figured out. And then, we start experience horrible dryness in prayer. Our buckets at the well are coming up empty and we are no longer having the experiences in prayer we once had. Saint Teresa counsels us through this terrain of prayer aridity.
