00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,960
Hey everyone, you're listening to the Curt Landry podcast where we're going to help you

2
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,760
discover your kingdom destiny.

3
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:16,840
My name is Darrell and sitting right beside me, it's his show, Rabbi Curt and Landry himself.

4
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:22,000
And in this episode, Rabbi, we're going to be breaking down spiritual warfare.

5
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,120
But first, before we jump right in, how is things going for you?

6
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:32,120
Well Darrell, listen, I'm honored to be on the program here today to be able to share

7
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:39,760
with people what really I think that if I could really deposit one aspect of spiritual

8
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:44,200
life to people, it would be the spiritual warfare component.

9
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:49,560
Because to the degree that you understand how that works and be able to do it successfully

10
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:55,480
determines so much about your health, your wealth, your relationships, and most of all,

11
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,960
your ability to obey God.

12
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,920
So Rabbi, this is your first episode of your new podcast.

13
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:07,100
What's really the direction that you want the audience to kind of feel?

14
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:14,160
Because a lot of this stuff is really kind of jumping in to your extreme history of everything

15
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:15,440
that you've kind of done.

16
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,920
But where exactly do you really want to take it?

17
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:27,520
Basically what I want to do is really is about legacy, and you know, everybody has something

18
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,560
that is their favorite thing to do in life.

19
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:37,280
And I would say mine would be the impartation to unlock people's kingdom destiny.

20
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:44,400
If I can share something, and I've, listen, I've, Kristi and I've heard this before, where

21
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,080
we'll meet somebody, we haven't seen them in like two or three years.

22
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,040
It happened on this last trip to Israel.

23
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,800
And they'll say something like, well, you know what, you don't remember this.

24
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:59,680
You maybe don't even remember meeting me, but you said this and it changed my life.

25
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:08,720
And so I really kind of hope that this podcast would be relational in the way that we could

26
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:16,000
share things that would trigger spiritual change in people's lives, new ideas and concepts

27
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:21,000
to give them kind of the faith to be able to try new things, to be able to grow.

28
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,000
All right.

29
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,000
So let's start with this.

30
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,200
What is spiritual warfare?

31
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:31,760
I think the best explanation is Ephesians chapter six, where it says in 12, for we do

32
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:38,140
not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers

33
00:02:38,140 --> 00:02:44,900
of darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness and heavenly places.

34
00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:53,440
So as easy and clear as that is said, Paul speaking to the church at Ephesus, I think

35
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,960
people struggle with the fact.

36
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:01,480
And you'll hear people say, well, you think there's a demon behind every bush.

37
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:07,400
But really, I want to try to back into this a little differently.

38
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,180
The spirit of how something operates.

39
00:03:11,180 --> 00:03:13,780
Let's take the evil side out.

40
00:03:13,780 --> 00:03:21,680
Just the collective spirit will determine the outcome.

41
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:22,680
I'll give you an example.

42
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:28,000
I was watching the NFL the week before last.

43
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,960
I was watching the Dallas Cowboys, a fantastic game.

44
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:38,560
They were playing in Dallas and they won, I think it was their 12th game that they had

45
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:39,720
won.

46
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:46,080
And then, so I'm walking, and I don't watch a lot of football, but I've been a little

47
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,860
bit under the weather, so I'm watching some television.

48
00:03:49,860 --> 00:03:52,800
And so now I'm going to watch them play Buffalo.

49
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,800
And I'm going, man, this is going to be a great game.

50
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,280
Let's watch this happen.

51
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,760
Now I'm a behaviorist, okay?

52
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,600
My mother was an Olympic athlete.

53
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:08,600
I understand the whole mental concept of sports.

54
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,880
And so I'm looking at sports from a different level.

55
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:16,040
I can tell you the spiritual side.

56
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:21,600
The spiritual side of the Dallas Cowboys who showed up in Buffalo was not who played in

57
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,680
Dallas.

58
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,320
They were totally defeated.

59
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,140
They didn't have energy.

60
00:04:29,140 --> 00:04:33,200
They didn't have synergy.

61
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:38,000
And Buffalo just ran over them.

62
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:44,160
And the reason is because they were mentally defeated before the game even started.

63
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,300
Now I don't know what happened, but I could just tell by the way that they were running

64
00:04:48,300 --> 00:04:54,040
off and on the field, the expression of the sideline and the coach, that it wasn't the

65
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,280
same team.

66
00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:56,480
So that was a spirit.

67
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,680
So what happened is they lost the game.

68
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,240
They are still physically capable of playing the game as they were the week before, but

69
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:11,040
they were mentally and spiritually, they were not ready for Buffalo.

70
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:16,000
And you know, Buffalo is very physical, so they can apply a lot of physical pressure.

71
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:21,920
And that, you know, people getting hurt, people getting shamed and run over, and then that

72
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,880
defeatist attitude came upon them.

73
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:26,880
And they lost the game.

74
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,760
Now people would say, well, what do you mean spiritual warfare?

75
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,580
Spiritual warfare has a lot to do with attitude.

76
00:05:32,580 --> 00:05:38,480
Because if your attitude is not positive, then what happens is you attract in the spirit

77
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,760
realm, you attract evil spirits like despair, hopelessness, doubt, unbelief.

78
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,800
All right, so let's walk it back a little bit.

79
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:55,920
So let's walk it back to when war in Israel was announced, right?

80
00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:01,600
You popped on about 4 a.m. that morning, jumped in, really announced it to the Curtland Tree

81
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,000
Ministries Facebook and YouTube channel.

82
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:13,560
And let's sit from this perspective that what the perception of what was happening in Israel,

83
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:14,560
right?

84
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:19,780
And then let's now push about a month, month and a half forward.

85
00:06:19,780 --> 00:06:22,720
You went to Israel for around a week.

86
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:28,320
And what was the reality in the spiritual warfare that, hey, when you first announced

87
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,240
it, perception, right?

88
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:35,560
As time went on, Curtland Tree Ministries did a ton of stuff with Stand With Israel

89
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:42,440
to do numerous things for the IDF and the people of Israel.

90
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:48,560
But what was that perception versus reality on the spiritual warfare right now?

91
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:53,200
OK, so it's interesting you ask because you know that I went on the air, I think it was

92
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,520
about 3.30 on October the 7th.

93
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:03,440
So what happened, first of all, Sam gave me I get a call from from Israel and and the

94
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,880
call is pretty panicky.

95
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:12,840
And they said, listen, we need you to pray and you need to know we're under attack.

96
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:21,720
So for our guests, you know, 34 years experience, this last trip was our 49th trip to Israel

97
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,360
have worked with the IDF over 25 years.

98
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,100
So we're seasoned.

99
00:07:28,100 --> 00:07:31,320
And actually what happened there, I don't know if you know this or not, but at 3.30

100
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:37,040
when it went up, Prime Minister Netanyahu did not declare war.

101
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:42,540
I was actually the one and I'm not taking credit, but the Lord told me as I'm going

102
00:07:42,540 --> 00:07:45,480
on the air, he said, you need to declare war.

103
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,040
This is a war.

104
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,400
And that's part of the training of spiritual warfare is that you have to know that you're

105
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,520
not being terrorized.

106
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,720
You're you're not being assaulted.

107
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,120
You're actually in a war.

108
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:05,360
And so what's happening in Israel in the south.

109
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:11,480
So you're looking at Storot, Ofakim, Kibbutz Kavar, Kibbutz, the different places in the

110
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:12,840
south.

111
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:18,800
They have been accustomed to and comfortable with rockets coming in and the Iron Dome knocking

112
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,100
the rockets down.

113
00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:25,960
But this is the first time over three thousand militants actually came in with motorcycles

114
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:32,640
and trucks and cars and literally kites flying over the border and actually doing what I

115
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:36,860
would call more, not just an assault, but like a home invasion.

116
00:08:36,860 --> 00:08:40,860
They knew the Kibbutz that that they were attacking.

117
00:08:40,860 --> 00:08:45,200
They many of them work in the factories that are in the Kibbutz.

118
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,360
Many of them have had dinner in the homes of the people in these kibbutz.

119
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:53,600
So they knew where the layout of the homes were, the safe houses, the safe rooms in the

120
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:54,600
house.

121
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:55,760
They knew where everything was.

122
00:08:55,760 --> 00:09:05,060
And so when when I was called and I put on went online and I saw them at this music festival

123
00:09:05,060 --> 00:09:11,420
literally chasing down people, shooting them, grabbing girls, putting them on motorcycles

124
00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:14,480
and taking them back into Gaza.

125
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:22,480
This is the first time in Israel's history where there's actually kidnapping, murder,

126
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:27,480
rape, pillaging, killing children.

127
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,640
Just the brutality was was most monstrous.

128
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:41,420
And so we knew that this was a war because the Hamas knows that there will be mass retaliation

129
00:09:41,420 --> 00:09:43,100
from from what they did.

130
00:09:43,100 --> 00:09:47,400
And of course, there has been and we're not near done yet.

131
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:53,960
OK, so the perception on that, right?

132
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,440
Moving forward, boots on the ground.

133
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,320
What was the emotion?

134
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:04,760
And you know, can you describe senses, you know, like kind of what you felt with the

135
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:12,480
wind and the taste of the air and just like what's the reality of what you saw?

136
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:20,840
So first of all, at this point, Christie and I have lost 10 commanders, OK, that these

137
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:27,140
are men that we've worked with for, let's say, five, ten years.

138
00:10:27,140 --> 00:10:29,420
So we have relationship with them.

139
00:10:29,420 --> 00:10:36,660
So first of all, you have to deal with the in war now.

140
00:10:36,660 --> 00:10:37,920
And this is what the soldiers do.

141
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,400
But Christie and I are like kind of a part of it.

142
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,080
We have to process mentally the same way.

143
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,160
There's no time to mourn.

144
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,960
There's no time to grief.

145
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,120
You're in war.

146
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,220
You've got to make decisions.

147
00:10:50,220 --> 00:10:54,360
You have to have a reaction.

148
00:10:54,360 --> 00:11:02,120
And so so the first key, first of all, we went to the base, we went to the Gaza base,

149
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:07,080
the one that was overrun, and we interviewed the soldiers there.

150
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:14,360
We actually interviewed the young girl that that was responsible for the Intel failure

151
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,920
that that and how that happened.

152
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:18,920
They explained all that.

153
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,340
We can go into that later.

154
00:11:20,340 --> 00:11:23,840
But what you're asking is the feeling.

155
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,200
First of all, you're going through a neighborhood.

156
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,160
See this key puts is these are houses.

157
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,620
This is communal living.

158
00:11:31,620 --> 00:11:36,160
But it's basically like you if you're in America or something, it's like going into a neighborhood

159
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:41,760
and you're seeing houses, some houses not touched.

160
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,440
Excuse me.

161
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,400
And then others completely burnt out.

162
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,980
And you're seeing bullet ridden whole houses you're seeing.

163
00:11:50,980 --> 00:11:57,480
And when I say bullet ridden, I'm talking about a thousand 30 caliber bullet holes and

164
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:03,460
RPGs where they go in and there's about a two inch hole.

165
00:12:03,460 --> 00:12:07,240
And what it does is it goes into the house and when it gets into the house, you'll see

166
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:16,560
where it explodes on the inside wall of the house and then catches everything on fire.

167
00:12:16,560 --> 00:12:19,880
And I didn't let Christie go in the houses, but I went in the houses.

168
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:25,840
So what you're seeing, first of all, there's places that are still smoking.

169
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,800
The smell of death, it's everywhere.

170
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:36,000
So your sensory base is getting just overrun.

171
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:41,680
And I mean, I literally went into a house where there was an oven that they put a child

172
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:49,040
in the oven and turn the oven on and killed the baby.

173
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:54,660
There's you know, literally, Christie and I went through deliverance when we came home

174
00:12:54,660 --> 00:12:58,480
with some friends for for trauma.

175
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,440
And actually, I got sick when I came home.

176
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:07,840
And the diagnosis of the sickness was that we saw and it wasn't just in the south, we

177
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:08,920
went everywhere.

178
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:16,340
But we saw so much death and we heard so many stories of death.

179
00:13:16,340 --> 00:13:21,960
And we went to go see the soldiers in the in the Shiva hospital there in Tel Aviv.

180
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,720
So you're you know, you're looking at people.

181
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,440
I'm interviewing a young man.

182
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,280
His right eye is shut out.

183
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,000
And then the back of the left side of his brain is gone.

184
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,000
So he's a bandage.

185
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,000
There's a big cave in.

186
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,680
He's going to have to have a plate in his head.

187
00:13:36,680 --> 00:13:39,800
And yet he can still talk.

188
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,560
You're seeing people with bullet ridden.

189
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:54,280
Their legs are just where machine guns just you know, there's 10 or 15 penetrations.

190
00:13:54,280 --> 00:14:01,320
And when you see all that, they say the reason when I came home, I got so sick was they said

191
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:08,200
that when you experience that much trauma, then what happens is your immune system actually

192
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,960
shuts down from the trauma.

193
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,600
And they believe that's what happened to me.

194
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:19,520
So I just got, you know, like a severe flu and is in bed for several days and sick.

195
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,340
So this is the first time I've even come out since the meeting.

196
00:14:22,340 --> 00:14:28,120
It's been, it was about a two week time being down.

197
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:35,480
But one of the questions that I was asked, it's interesting because my friend John Smoltz,

198
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:41,600
you know, John called me and he asked, he says, I need to ask you a question, Rabbi.

199
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,800
He says, what's that?

200
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:48,240
He said, how do you deal with the anger?

201
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,840
And I never thought about it.

202
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:59,520
And I said to him, well, first of all, my assignment, my spiritual warfare assignment

203
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:04,280
on the Gaza border at these bases and the kibbutz's.

204
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,720
And it was the only day there was an extended day of a ceasefire.

205
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,940
So we were able to go.

206
00:15:09,940 --> 00:15:12,960
And so we're there, we're with heavily armed troops.

207
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:18,000
I mean, if you can imagine, we're walking around with our camera guy and we've got

208
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:27,460
soldiers all around us, heavily armed, literally watching the perimeter.

209
00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:31,440
And I literally, I just, I felt like I didn't put on our bulletproof vests or a helmet or

210
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:32,440
anything.

211
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:33,840
I wasn't trying to add drama to this.

212
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,160
I wanted this to be real.

213
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,880
And I was talking to a gentleman that had lost his son.

214
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:46,400
And I didn't want to traumatize it more by him, me being there with a vest on and all

215
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,440
the stuff.

216
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,360
But what John asked me, he said, how do you deal with the anger?

217
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,920
I said, you really have to get to a spiritual warfare place.

218
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:11,040
And I said, what I did was I mentally took myself in my head to Jesus on the cross.

219
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:18,000
And I had to mentally think, look what they did to him.

220
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,680
He's sinless.

221
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,040
He did nothing.

222
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,040
It's like these people.

223
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:27,840
Now, listen, the people in the kibbutz aren't sinless, but they weren't attacking anyone.

224
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:29,400
They were having a peace festival.

225
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,680
It was the last day of Sukkot.

226
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:39,280
Literally, one of the houses I went to had a kite, a child's kite that was burned and

227
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:40,920
was on fire.

228
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:51,160
That child, I know his uncle Doran, and his uncle was telling me that they were flying

229
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,040
kites with the Palestinian kids that day.

230
00:16:54,040 --> 00:17:01,320
Literally, they were flying kites together as a sign of peace the day the attack came.

231
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:06,840
Such a betrayal in relationship.

232
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:12,000
So what I had to do is I had to go into the mind of the Lord, put myself, so to say, if

233
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,580
I was like Jesus, if I was on the cross, they had just plucked out my beard.

234
00:17:16,580 --> 00:17:19,680
They put 39 stripes on my back.

235
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,120
They're getting ready to drive.

236
00:17:21,120 --> 00:17:22,680
They drove nails through my hands.

237
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,120
They pierced my side.

238
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:26,120
They spit.

239
00:17:26,120 --> 00:17:27,120
They mocked me.

240
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:30,600
They put a sign above my head saying, here's the king of the Jews.

241
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,320
I have the ability to be angry.

242
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:42,240
I have the ability to call down all heaven's army, as Jesus did, and yet he chose to say

243
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:43,240
these words.

244
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,080
He says, Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.

245
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:48,080
So I had to go back.

246
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:55,280
I hope I'm not going too deep here, but what happened is my assignment on the Gaza border

247
00:17:55,280 --> 00:18:03,320
was to spiritually cleanse and reconcile so that the victory for the soldiers can come.

248
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,560
And the commanders and the soldiers all know that.

249
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:13,520
Everywhere we went, to the north, Kariot Shemona, the West Bank, everywhere we went, some of

250
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:19,320
the places, I can't tell you where we went, but every place that we went, they wanted

251
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,340
Christy and I there, and they all said, would you please pray?

252
00:18:23,340 --> 00:18:25,200
So here's the key about prayer.

253
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:26,520
And I told this to John Smoltz.

254
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:32,880
I said, John, I can't pray if I'm mad, if I'm angry, if I'm wanting to kill him.

255
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,000
Did I get angry?

256
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:35,360
Did I want to do it?

257
00:18:35,360 --> 00:18:36,360
Yes.

258
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:41,080
Your first man, human instinct is to go to one of the soldiers and say, give me your

259
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,080
gun.

260
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,560
I'm going to go find them and shoot them.

261
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:49,440
I mean, you're just, it's the innocence to the children.

262
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,320
It's like, whoa.

263
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,880
But you, but what's your assignment?

264
00:18:53,880 --> 00:19:03,400
Your assignment is to repent, cleanse the land so that when the soldiers come in who

265
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,480
are depending on us, can get a spiritual victory.

266
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,520
It's called intercessory prayer warfare.

267
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:15,360
So I told John that and his response to me says that's interesting because he played

268
00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:19,200
in the first game in New York after 9-11.

269
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:24,440
And for the people that don't know John, he's a pitcher, a Hall of Fame pitcher for the

270
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,640
Braves.

271
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:35,320
And he said, I can totally relate to Rabbi because all of my team went to ground zero.

272
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,560
They took them to ground zero and then they played the game.

273
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:44,860
And the reason they chose to play the game was to try to bring some community, healthy

274
00:19:44,860 --> 00:19:49,840
normalcy after 9-11 to the New Yorkers.

275
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:57,240
And so, but John said, he said, he said the only player he said I couldn't go because

276
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,360
he said, I knew if I went, I would get so angry.

277
00:20:00,360 --> 00:20:06,920
I wouldn't be able to focus on my game and I couldn't play the game.

278
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,440
And I said, well, that's what happened to me.

279
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:16,720
I had to choose not to battle against flesh and blood, but the powers and principalities

280
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,600
and the heavenly host dark places.

281
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:24,000
And Darrell, I'll tell you, I've been all over the world.

282
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:29,580
I've seen a lot of bad stuff.

283
00:20:29,580 --> 00:20:40,520
But the experience Christie and I had of the demonic behavior of demons is at a whole

284
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:47,400
other level because of what you saw us and smelled and was testified of.

285
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:53,080
So when Jesus says these words like that Satan has come to kill, steal and destroy and I've

286
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,820
come to give life, that takes on a whole other meaning for me.

287
00:20:57,820 --> 00:20:58,820
It's different now.

288
00:20:58,820 --> 00:20:59,820
Yeah.

289
00:20:59,820 --> 00:21:00,820
And I'm not a naive person.

290
00:21:00,820 --> 00:21:05,880
I mean, I was raised in Los Angeles during the Watts riots in the sixties.

291
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,200
I came out of a neighborhood where I've seen people shot and killed, you know, before I

292
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,200
was 18.

293
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:16,360
So, I mean, it's not like I wasn't raised like my, my wife and McCallister where she

294
00:21:16,360 --> 00:21:18,360
didn't see hardly any violence.

295
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:27,100
I was raised around violent activity, but I never not like this.

296
00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:28,600
This isn't even war.

297
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:34,440
This is brutality.

298
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:41,440
I was interviewing Doron Amag, the president of the Jewish Agency, my friend who lost his

299
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,480
some of his family down in Kibbutz Kivar.

300
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,360
And he said, he said, they're not animals, Kurt.

301
00:21:47,360 --> 00:21:56,040
He said animals only kill for food or they're mating or competing, but they don't just randomly

302
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,120
kill.

303
00:21:58,120 --> 00:22:00,920
And he said, he said, these are monsters.

304
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:07,120
And that's what I, that's what basically we observed as a monstrous act.

305
00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:12,820
But we have to understand that we have the power that we are truly more than conquerors

306
00:22:12,820 --> 00:22:13,820
through Christ Jesus.

307
00:22:13,820 --> 00:22:20,920
You know, last year I had a prophetic word in 2023 early that, and I think I did 10 weeks

308
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,400
of teaching on spiritual warfare.

309
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:28,960
And I really think that the preparation time of spiritual warfare, emotional healing, the

310
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:36,760
things that I was teaching really helped us for the preparation of being able to operate

311
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,780
successfully on this trip.

312
00:22:39,780 --> 00:22:43,880
Because not only did we have to go and see all this, but we had to get in and out of

313
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,200
it safely without getting killed.

314
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:52,160
And so we went to the south, they extended the ceasefire.

315
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:57,440
We prayed before we went in, our team prayed.

316
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,120
The next day, ceasefire stopped.

317
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:04,280
The very place we were at received three rockets.

318
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:09,280
So and then we went to the north up to Kariot Shemona.

319
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,720
We were there and 45 minutes after we left, three rockets came in.

320
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:17,560
So there's, there's real practical application to spiritual warfare to know how to shut things

321
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:23,200
down so that you spiritually can get in and out of dangerous situations safely.

322
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:24,940
And we'll be right back.

323
00:23:24,940 --> 00:23:27,360
It's a new year and a new you.

324
00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:34,560

That's curtlandry.com forward slash grow 2024.

329
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,440
I'll help answer questions like where do I start?

330
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,600
How do I walk in the spirit?

331
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,360
Or how do I do spiritual warfare?

332
00:24:05,360 --> 00:24:08,720
Or how do I believe that I'm more than a conqueror?

333
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:16,000
Meaning that Matthew 633 positions us for success in this year ahead.

334
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,600
That's Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all other things will

335
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,200
be added on to us.

336
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,560
The fruit of the spirit is evident in his covenant.

337
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:32,280
Know this, that if you can establish his covenant in your heart and in your mind, you will be

338
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,480
successful this coming year.

There are some projects that really touch your heart and this is interesting because

342
00:24:55,200 --> 00:25:02,160
our son-in-law Paul Marcelino, his dad, Yocana Marcelino, helped to produce this book and

343
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:11,520
the whole purpose of this book, Jerusalem Rising, is to be able to bring visual evidence

344
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:18,440
that Jerusalem and Israel actually belongs to the children of the God of Abraham, Isaac

345
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:19,840
and Jacob.

346
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:26,080
That this is the land of Isaac and the miracle power.

347
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:32,640
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words and this book captures that.

All right, now back to the show.

355
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,480
So I guess the next thought is, do you have an urge to go back?

356
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,720
I mean, you know, I'm talking like in the next couple of weeks.

357
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:22,840
I mean, it's something that you explain, hey, like you were telling me, I think about a

358
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:27,940
week ago, you've really only been sick like four times in your life that you can really

359
00:26:27,940 --> 00:26:31,240
remember being sick sick.

360
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:37,840
And you come back, right, and you're battling all this stuff and you get sick.

361
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:45,360
And so reflecting off what that perception versus reality, because you experienced it

362
00:26:45,360 --> 00:26:50,760
and you were sick, and now you're starting to kind of come over the edge a little bit.

363
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:56,640
Is there an urge to get back like, I mean, even if you don't do it, but like the inner

364
00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:01,200
inside of you of what you experience in relationships and the people that you know, do you have

365
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,960
an urge just to hop back on a plane and get back out there?

366
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:12,880
Well, first of all, it's just like in a podcast mentoring way, okay.

367
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,680
The first night of Hanukkah when we got, we just got back.

368
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,880
And in fact, I think you mentioned it.

369
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:23,400
I don't think you realized or anybody, but I was running a fever.

370
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,000
I was extremely ill that night.

371
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:33,400
I mean, I'm looking down at my notes and the letters are blurring and moving.

372
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,960
That's pretty impressive because you delivered it.

373
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:36,960
Yeah.

374
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:41,720
And the reason, see, that's part of the spiritual warfare is I made a commitment to the Lord.

375
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,680
I would never let Satan control my schedule.

376
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:52,320
I can tell you in 34 years and thousands of times speaking, maybe tens of thousands, I

377
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:59,640
don't know, I've never missed a service because I was sick.

378
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,680
Have I been sick in services?

379
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,800
Oh, absolutely.

380
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:04,800
And that was one of them.

381
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:09,760
I mean, I was really, that's why I just, everyone wanted to love on us because of what

382
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,600
we were doing, but Christie was not feeling well either.

383
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,940
So we had to go to the green room and we left.

384
00:28:14,940 --> 00:28:19,560
So then we come back a week later and we're bringing the rewards of Hanukkah and I'm

385
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,760
still sick.

386
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:28,460
So here's the key is what did I learn from that?

387
00:28:28,460 --> 00:28:29,460
Are we going to go back?

388
00:28:29,460 --> 00:28:30,840
Yes, we're going back.

389
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,240
They want us to come back.

390
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,680
But this trip was kind of, there was twofold.

391
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,800
Number one is the comfort.

392
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:43,800
Scripture says, comfort ye, comfort my people.

393
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:54,000
I lost count of how many of my tough special forces guys literally wept when they saw us

394
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,240
walk in the door.

395
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,080
That's not like them, not like me.

396
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:05,520
But we knew we were at Israel's 9-11.

397
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:11,800
We knew that Israel was never going back to be the same again, that what happened has

398
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:16,360
changed the nation and the region and the world forever.

399
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,620
And it was unspoken.

400
00:29:20,620 --> 00:29:26,440
So just the embrace and the hugs and being there, it was a comfort trip.

401
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:32,200
The warfare side of it was the Lord allowed us to go to every strategic high place that

402
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:39,600
we needed to go to and do the spiritual warfare by praying, decreeing, pulling down the strongholds,

403
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,760
canceling assignments of the enemy.

404
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,720
So we were able to do that.

405
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,680
But that was done in a very private way.

406
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:53,520
But the next time we go back, what will happen is the next layer of warfare will be to speak

407
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:58,760
words of knowledge, to speak prophetic words.

408
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:04,460
You know, the trip you were on with us, we went in and we had prophetic words for the

409
00:30:04,460 --> 00:30:11,040
mayor of Jerusalem and the minister of defense, Yoav Galant.

410
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,400
And those words that I spoke to them have happened.

411
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,680
And a lot of it was warning them about this war to come.

412
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,360
So this next visit, you're asking, yes, there will be a next visit.

413
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,200
I don't know when.

414
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,440
But I can tell you this.

415
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,080
And this is spiritual warfare.

416
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:37,360
I will, the vitamins and the rest, I will definitely increase all of my vitamins and

417
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:38,360
my rest.

418
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:43,560
We left very tired and very fatigued at the end of the year.

419
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:48,640
And so, and you know, we just squeezed this, we felt like we had to be there at this, another

420
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,380
spiritual warfare principle.

421
00:30:50,380 --> 00:30:53,640
The Lord said, you got to go from this day to that day.

422
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:58,360
And it was perfect because every place we went, we couldn't have gone if we were a day

423
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,600
late.

424
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:06,360
But one of the keys is, is that this next trip, we're going to, you know, we belong

425
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:07,680
to salt health.

426
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,960
And so we'll go and get vitamin injections.

427
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:12,440
We'll be rested.

428
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,600
Spiritually, we'll take our game up to a higher level.

429
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:16,600
What does that mean?

430
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:22,800
We'll spend more time meditating on doors open and weak places in our life.

431
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,720
And we'll just take it to another level so we can get in and out.

432
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,360
Like I say, it's our 49th trip.

433
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,280
I've only been sick on one other trip there.

434
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,240
And that was my first trip there back in 91.

435
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,440
So, but anyway, that's what we'll do.

436
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:39,960
We'll just, we'll take it up.

437
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:41,840
And do we want to go back?

438
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:42,840
Absolutely.

439
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:49,120
We, this, this, this war, I don't think people understand.

440
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:53,760
This spirit, spiritual warfare, is not really even about Israel.

441
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,760
This isn't really even about Hamas and Hezbollah.

442
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:02,900
What this is, is this is about an evil Persian ancient spirit that is literally marching

443
00:32:02,900 --> 00:32:06,800
in the universities in the Ivy League in the United States and other places.

444
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:12,520
So, so we're going to have to learn how to overcome this spirit spiritually with the

445
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,060
proper strategies.

446
00:32:14,060 --> 00:32:18,760
And the Lord's given me some prophetic words I'll be releasing in the first quarter of

447
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:22,480
this year in regards to how to overcome that.

448
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:27,640
And for the listeners listening, if you want to know more about how you can help Israel,

449
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,960
you can Stand With Israel.

450
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:36,680
You just go over to our website, visit curtlandry.com forward slash stand with Israel.

451
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:38,680
Again, it's curtlandry.com.

452
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,200
Stand With Israel.

453
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,280
You hit the forward slash on that.

454
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,560
Tons of great individual ask.

455
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,000
Rabbi, you know, it does a really good job on this landing page.

456
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,680
There's a lot of content, a lot of videos that you can watch.

457
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:58,360
But you know, I think our team's doing a really good job to break it down and say like, here's

458
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,400
where these phases are, and here's where these ask are.

459
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,920
Well, let's talk about that.

460
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:14,360
So, when the war starts that night, you know, that morning, I announced that Israel's at

461
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,080
war.

462
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:23,240
And I'm being obedient to God, but I'm also waiting because I knew I did this and that

463
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,600
Prime Minister Netanyahu hadn't done it yet.

464
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:31,700
And I do know that they watch me and listen to what I say.

465
00:33:31,700 --> 00:33:36,660
So I'm waiting like, oh my gosh, I told Christie, it's like six in the morning and I'm saying

466
00:33:36,660 --> 00:33:41,520
I'm waiting on my phone to ring going, Lord, who are you to say where it's war?

467
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,880
It's the prime minister's job, not yours.

468
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,260
But anyway, it didn't happen.

469
00:33:46,260 --> 00:33:50,760
And it turned out later that day that Bibi did announce it.

470
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:55,480
So the first thing is like, okay, what's the main need?

471
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,720
And the main need were the bulletproof vest and the helmets.

472
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:03,360
Now you have to understand the full-time army has all these things, but the reserves, they

473
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,960
called up initially, it was like, I think they started out with two, don't quote me,

474
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,280
but it was like 250,000 guys and gals they call up.

475
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,240
And eventually it got up over 350.

476
00:34:16,240 --> 00:34:18,320
But these are just regular people.

477
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:24,600
These are your barber, the accountant, the nurse, the school teacher, I mean, the banker.

478
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,920
And they're coming back in in the reserves.

479
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:32,520
And so some of them don't even have proper uniforms or boots and they don't have bulletproof

480
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:33,520
vests.

481
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:38,960
So the first phase, we got bulletproof vests, and then we got bulletproof helmets because

482
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,680
they were just getting the traditional helmets.

483
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,320
And these things have already, we know have saved life.

484
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:51,400
And then we got them boots because, you know, you got to be able to keep your footing and

485
00:34:51,400 --> 00:35:00,520
gloves and uniforms and flashlights and power packs to store, to charge their phones.

486
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:05,780
It turns out when they went into the medical supplies, the bandages that are the ones to

487
00:35:05,780 --> 00:35:14,380
use to coagulate and stop bleeding from blunt trauma, they're outdated.

488
00:35:14,380 --> 00:35:18,940
So we went and bought these bandages that are really expensive.

489
00:35:18,940 --> 00:35:21,400
So we supplied the medics.

490
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,440
I mean, it just goes on and on.

491
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:29,040
But here's where we're at right now and what I want to speak to our podcast audience about

492
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:34,240
morning, is that when we were in the South, you would see one kibbutz and it was all burned

493
00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:38,040
out and fired and the next one was fine and kind of random.

494
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:43,400
And so when I asked my friend that was taking us through there as a Mossad agent, he said

495
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:50,760
this kibbutz had security, meaning not just police and the soldiers, but the actual people

496
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:57,720
that live there were armed, bulletproof vest, helmets, flash, you know, the lights on the

497
00:35:57,720 --> 00:36:00,400
helmet, nightlights, all this stuff.

498
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,560
They had everything they need and to defend.

499
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:08,840
And so what happens is when Hamas came in and these terrorists came in, militants, they

500
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:12,240
left those alone because they didn't want to be shot back at and killed.

501
00:36:12,240 --> 00:36:15,440
They went to where there was no protection.

502
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:20,480
And so when I saw that, in fact, I was coming back from the South, I got a phone call from

503
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:29,600
the mayor and he were here when I interviewed him as Benny Kassara from Ma'el Domeim.

504
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,840
He's been the mayor for 35 years there.

505
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,800
Well, he's in a very vulnerable spot.

506
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,320
If you've been to Israel, you come down, you're going down to Jericho.

507
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:42,920
It's the first big neighborhood village that's on the right side, on the south side of the

508
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:47,320
highway and across the other side is Ramallah, where the checkpoint is.

509
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:51,720
And so Palestinians are coming in doing home invasions there.

510
00:36:51,720 --> 00:36:54,880
He said, we need to equip 36 soldiers.

511
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:55,880
He called me.

512
00:36:55,880 --> 00:37:02,560
He says, we have 36 retired special forces guys and regular soldiers and we need all

513
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:03,560
the equipment.

514
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:09,480
He said, we need $3,000 a guy to equip them and we need it tomorrow.

515
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:15,960
So I'm there and I just said, we're going to do it, Benny, because after seeing this

516
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:23,760
and then being and working at Ma'el Domeim for all these years, I knew the vulnerability.

517
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:25,080
So that's what we're doing.

518
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:32,840
So you can literally sow seed providing bulletproof helmets, gloves, uniforms, flashlights, walkie

519
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,680
talkies.

520
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:40,640
And the other thing we've done is there's 36 safe houses from bombs in Ma'el Domeim.

521
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:46,800
We redid all of them and we put water and plumbing in so they can use the restroom and

522
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,840
get water.

523
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:49,840
This was not an issue.

524
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:55,400
The last time they used safe houses in Ma'el Domeim was in 67, Six Day War.

525
00:37:55,400 --> 00:38:01,340
So that's a real practical thing that I think the prevention of it.

526
00:38:01,340 --> 00:38:05,960
And of course, they brought in the news when we were there and the news channels were running

527
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:07,680
and filming it.

528
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:15,840
So everyone knows that they're armed and prepared for what's coming.

529
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,080
And so far they haven't had an attack of that.

530
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:23,640
So I think it's amazing to me and I just really am impressed with the Curt Landry ministry

531
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:30,880
supporters that you have the foresight and the heart to be able to understand one of

532
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:37,040
the biggest spiritual warfare principles is preparation is the key to victory.

533
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:43,280
And that's CurtLandry.com forward slash Stan with Israel to find out more and about how

534
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:44,280
you can help.

535
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,280
All right.

536
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,880
So Rabbi, we're getting towards the end of this episode.

537
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:53,440
Let's just get practical for the listeners here because we've jumped in and really broke

538
00:38:53,440 --> 00:39:02,920
down a lot of practical and relational stories and things that especially has happened recently

539
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:04,520
in regards to spiritual warfare.

540
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:10,360
And so I want to get to a couple of things that I'm just going to fire at you and I want

541
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,960
you to kind of lead people through.

542
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:21,840
The first area is how do you actually recognize spiritual warfare and or put it this way,

543
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,360
how do you recognize if you're actually going through it?

544
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,200
First of all, you have to look at the symptoms.

545
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:37,440
One of the biggest free download blogs that we've ever had is the one I did on how do

546
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,720
you identify a Jezebel spirit?

547
00:39:40,720 --> 00:39:47,520
And I can't remember how many symptoms it but so I just basically put a list of the

548
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:52,140
symptoms in there and I would recommend that they go.

549
00:39:52,140 --> 00:39:53,140
We don't have it.

550
00:39:53,140 --> 00:39:54,140
We're not prepared with the.

551
00:39:54,140 --> 00:39:57,800
We'll throw it in the show notes in the description of this episode.

552
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:04,040
But definitely listen, that's a great learning because what you can do is saying, am I being

553
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:10,760
influenced by this in this case, a Jezebelic witchcraft spirit and then go down the symptoms

554
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:15,600
of that.

555
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:23,200
But in a real practical way, when you start having what we call in our family little foxes,

556
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:31,600
when you have too many things that are constantly going wrong, there's a pretty good chance

557
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:41,760
that you have some kind of a demonic spirit tormenting you and you know, you're dropping

558
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:47,800
things, you're breaking things.

559
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,720
Small things happen and you emotionally just overreact.

560
00:40:50,720 --> 00:40:54,200
You can't even understand like, why did I get so mad about this?

561
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:55,320
I mean, I'm like flipping out.

562
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:57,880
It's like nothing.

563
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:03,680
When those type of things happening happen, most likely you're being attacked or you've

564
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:11,280
picked up what I call a trailer or you've got a trailing spirit and or you're having

565
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,680
oppression.

566
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,800
You're having bizarre sexual thoughts.

567
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:17,800
OK.

568
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:23,880
Every human being has a certain amount of sexual thoughts and that are kind of more

569
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:27,320
normal for the person.

570
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:32,200
But when you start having like weird perverted sexual thoughts, more than likely you've

571
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,760
picked up an unclean spirit somewhere.

572
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,520
And those things need to just be cut off.

573
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,600
Financially, you're getting drained.

574
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:46,060
I mean, it's like, oh my gosh, the refrigerator goes out, the ice maker goes out.

575
00:41:46,060 --> 00:41:50,760
You have a flat tire on the car and you weren't able to and you got to go take and get the

576
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:51,760
tire plugged.

577
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,160
I mean, it's like it's not the end of the world.

578
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:58,760
But when you start seeing these things come one, two, three, four or five, you're under

579
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,120
a spiritual attack.

580
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,680
And what you have to do is you have to cancel those attacks.

581
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,400
OK, so that leads me to this.

582
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:13,760
What do you actually do right from a spiritual but what's the physical sense in it as well?

583
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,800
Because physical action has to occur.

584
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,160
How do you actually defeat it?

585
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,560
So like now that I know, right?

586
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:25,420
So like say they take a resource on this and watch one of those Shabbat's that you really

587
00:42:25,420 --> 00:42:28,020
kind of break it down, right?

588
00:42:28,020 --> 00:42:29,020
What do they do?

589
00:42:29,020 --> 00:42:30,880
How do they defeat it?

590
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:38,200
Well, first of all, we have a workbook on spiritual warfare and I think it's 10 chapters.

591
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:44,000
I would go through that and also we have 10 classes.

592
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,960
I would go through 12 victory in spiritual warfare.

593
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:49,120
It's actually a playlist.

594
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:53,680
If you look up Curt Landry Ministries YouTube, you just go to playlists.

595
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:54,680
There's 12 of them.

596
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:59,760
OK, well, what I would do is I'd get a partner or a small group and I just watch it and then

597
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,400
go through the workbook.

598
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:02,760
And that's where I go.

599
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:08,520
Yeah, it's not, there's no quick fix for spiritual warfare.

600
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:19,640
I mean, you know, your authority that you have needs to be recognized in heaven.

601
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:25,200
You know, in the book of Acts, there were people casting out demons and so the demon

602
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,480
came and just beat up and trashed the person.

603
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,240
And the demon said to the person that was trying to cast out in Jesus' name, he says,

604
00:43:32,240 --> 00:43:35,120
All I know, Jesus, I know, he says, Who are you?

605
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:43,280
So there's a certain amount of spiritual warfare lifestyle so that the enemy knows

606
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,120
like who you are.

607
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:53,960
OK, so like, for instance, when we came back from the trip, we knew, Christie, I knew we

608
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:55,180
took a hit.

609
00:43:55,180 --> 00:43:59,280
First of all, it's not, we've been doing this a long time.

610
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:09,080
I knew for us, you know, at almost 70 years old, we're doing a long international trip.

611
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,240
No rest in and out.

612
00:44:11,240 --> 00:44:12,880
Didn't sleep when we were there.

613
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:13,880
You've been with us.

614
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:14,880
You know what it's like.

615
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,520
I mean, eight o'clock in the morning, you hit it.

616
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:19,280
We're back in the hotel at midnight.

617
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,480
So every day and it's a work trip.

618
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:23,480
It's a work trip.

619
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,480
There's no everyone always says, oh, 100%.

620
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:27,480
So glad.

621
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,920
The hotel we stayed at had a pool, an indoor pool.

622
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:31,720
And they said, oh, could it be so great?

623
00:44:31,720 --> 00:44:32,720
You can swim.

624
00:44:32,720 --> 00:44:33,720
We know you love to swim.

625
00:44:33,720 --> 00:44:34,720
And saying, yeah, really.

626
00:44:34,720 --> 00:44:36,560
I never even went and looked at it.

627
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:42,600
It's kind of funny how people ask me my first experience going to Israel on my trip.

628
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,280
I think I was out there eight, nine days.

629
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:50,400
And I said, guys, like, I don't think you understand that just not in general of these

630
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:55,540
types of film trips, but like I experienced it through a lens.

631
00:44:55,540 --> 00:45:01,800
And we were working 12 to 14 hour days and I'll send in footage and photos back at 1,

632
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,400
2 a.m. because I had to try to get it back.

633
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:09,400
So then we're able to share the content with everybody that's donating towards these certain

634
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:10,400
projects.

635
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:14,200
So it's it's a work trip.

636
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:15,200
Yeah.

637
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,560
So so anyway, we knew we were going to take a hit.

638
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:24,120
But when we got back, what happened is we have other friends that are leaders and travel

639
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:25,120
internationally.

640
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:30,360
You know, they go to Africa, they go to Korea, they go different places.

641
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:31,360
OK.

642
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:37,480
And so we, you know, we called them so they understand like they're seasoned.

643
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:46,480
They've been in ministry 30, 40 years like us and we're friends, but they have authority.

644
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,240
They're known in heaven.

645
00:45:48,240 --> 00:45:49,240
OK.

646
00:45:49,240 --> 00:45:51,280
And and we're known in heaven.

647
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:56,040
But it wasn't enough just for Christie and I to be on the couch sitting there wiped out.

648
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,200
So we called our friends and they prayed, prayed with us.

649
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,400
We also have a prayer team that prays with us.

650
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,520
That's been with us for 14 years.

651
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:04,520
Intercessors.

652
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:09,320
We have intercessors in House of David that are very seasoned.

653
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:14,800
So so I didn't put it out like on social media, like, OK, we took a hit.

654
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:18,960
We're sick, you know, because that's just fueling the enemies.

655
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:19,960
We're past it now.

656
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:21,680
That's why I'm even discussing it.

657
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:27,240
But what happens is we already had those people in place before we prayed and before we went.

658
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:31,680
But we also knew, Darrell, when we went that it's really kind of unreasonable to think

659
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:37,600
you're going to go into that level of demonic activity without taking some hits.

660
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,420
And I mean, that's like to me, maybe.

661
00:46:40,420 --> 00:46:41,420
But like, you know what?

662
00:46:41,420 --> 00:46:42,420
We're just people.

663
00:46:42,420 --> 00:46:45,040
We're not superheroes.

664
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:46,520
I think that's a really good point.

665
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:51,400
Well, Rabbi, I think it's going to wrap up this episode for questions.

666
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:55,320
I mean, obviously, it's it's the first Curt Landry podcast.

667
00:46:55,320 --> 00:47:01,800
It's a show that I've been trying to get you to do since I got here almost two years ago.

668
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:07,520
Do you feel like this type of format is is good to kind of open up conversation like

669
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:08,840
this?

670
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:09,840
It's good for me.

671
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:15,040
My question is for the audiences, if it's good for them.

672
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:21,440
I know I get a lot of requests from people and I understand it.

673
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,920
And they just said, oh, I just if I could just talk to you, you know, for 10 minutes

674
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:27,640
or whatever.

675
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:32,480
And and and I really don't think people.

676
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:39,360
I don't think people understand because of the international nature of what we do, that

677
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:46,280
we seriously we work from about eight in the morning till midnight, one, two in the morning,

678
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:51,120
because if I'm going to work with Israel, it's from 12 to three in the morning.

679
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:57,560
And so I don't think people realize that there's very few.

680
00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:01,460
They don't understand, like, the amount of hours.

681
00:48:01,460 --> 00:48:08,480
So I really don't have time to, like, sit down with somebody and just hang out and visit.

682
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,180
And that's what I like about this is that that's what we're doing.

683
00:48:11,180 --> 00:48:15,600
We're hanging out and visiting and being pretty transparent and personal.

684
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:17,480
I have no trouble with that.

685
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:22,600
I want I would you know, I want people to learn from our mistakes so that our ceiling

686
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,560
becomes their floor, but also our victories.

687
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,180
They can learn from that and not have to reinvent the wheel.

688
00:48:27,180 --> 00:48:30,640
So I like the format, but I'd like to hear from the people if they like it.

689
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:36,960
I mean, it's up to you know, this is easy for me because there's no preparation.

690
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:41,520
I mean, this is this is like who we are.

691
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:43,720
This is what we do.

692
00:48:43,720 --> 00:48:46,560
We're a work in progress.

693
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:53,600
And we have a saying in our house, people say, oh, it's not theologically correct.

694
00:48:53,600 --> 00:49:01,160
And I don't know if it is or not, but people I always say higher levels, higher devils.

695
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:07,200
And what happens is it's higher levels of responsibility brings a higher attack, a higher

696
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,200
level of principality.

697
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:13,120
Now, I don't know if that's scriptural or not, but I can tell you with 34 years of doing

698
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,560
this, that's how it works.

699
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:21,400
So whether anybody some theologian says, well, that's not correct.

700
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:29,240
If you lived my life, you would know that if you're going into a nation and you're

701
00:49:29,240 --> 00:49:34,500
meeting with the minister of defense and the prime minister and the tops and you have the

702
00:49:34,500 --> 00:49:39,440
honor to speak into their life, the attack on the enemy is a lot more than you going

703
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:45,880
in and speaking in church because what you're doing is going to shift that nation and it's

704
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,760
going to start fulfilling and activating Bible prophecy.

705
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,720
So there's just a different level of responsibility.

706
00:49:53,720 --> 00:49:59,720
So anyway, I understand that and where we come from is we have no intention of quitting.

707
00:49:59,720 --> 00:50:07,520
We've had a CLM board meeting here last week and there was kind of a slow down plan that

708
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:10,200
everybody had at this age.

709
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:16,640
And I told them, I said, now you realize after this trip, we're burning the slow down plan.

710
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:23,940
And because the experience that we have and the testimony and the favor we have to get

711
00:50:23,940 --> 00:50:28,240
with people, I can't like delegate that out.

712
00:50:28,240 --> 00:50:34,100
I mean, the people I meet with meet with me in Israel because they've met with me for

713
00:50:34,100 --> 00:50:37,320
20 years and there's trust.

714
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:41,680
And so, you know, and Israel needs us right now and the Lord needs us.

715
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:44,000
So I guess we're not slowing down.

716
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,320
Well, that's going to wrap it up for this.

717
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,320
We actually do have an email set up.

718
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:51,600

Yep, thank you so much, Shalom.
