TRAILER REVIEW: Harry Potter And the Deathly Hallows

- Please Watch this trailer Before and After Reading. Thank you and let the spirit of the LORD be with you.

These are dark times there is no denying

What Christian can deny that we aren’t in dark times? The wars and rumors of wars. Earthquakes in divers places. Mass animals deaths occurring with no trace of poison or anything. We are living in revelations right now. These are in deed dark times. Jesus talks to us about being able to know the weather given the signs and being able to know when a new season is about to dawn given the signs. Similarly we are to discern the times we are in now.

“…And when the south wind blow ye say, There wil be heat; and it cometh to pass. Ye hypocrites, ye discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time”? Luke 12:55-56

I believe in this time, for his purpose. God is revealing himself in an unconventional way one that has been prophesied by Medina Pullings: “…some people are going to be converted by watching a sitcom thats going to be released…they going to think they watching it for the wonderful cars and the lamborginis and the fashion but they gonna get down to the nitty gritty that it’s all about Jesus…”—Medina P.

Our world has faced no greater threat than it does today

“…for then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elects sake those days shall be shortened”—Matthew 24:21-22

Jesus is telling us something here. He’s letting us know that we are going to face a tribulation greater than anything the world has ever encountered before. Not only that look at where technology has evolved. True God has a purpose for it, but satan has perverted the internet and even advertisements to gratify the flesh. I remember when one would be ashamed to discuss pornography now making home videos are all over the net for people to see...FOR FREE.

But you can’t fight this war on your own Mr. Potter…He’s too Strong

Many of you reading this post right now know that the enemy is too strong to fight him alone. If your out of fellowship and out of prayer your armor is weak and can be penetrated by the enemy. Let’s take from the example of Jesus. He was either with his disciples or alone in prayer with the Father. When the enemy came up against him in the desert he was able to fight him off with the WORD of God. We too must remain in fellowship with God and with faithful brothers and sisters in Christ, if we’re going to stand against the enemy and prevail. We can’t fight this war alone. The enemy isn't to be feared but he is too be respected. "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds"

We have infiltrated the ministry

Infiltrate means to enter or to gain access. Sin, Disobedience allows the satan to gain access in our lives and into the ministry, which the Lord has given us. What we’ll find out is that although satan may have infiltrated your ministry if you be zealous and repent God will use it to work out in your favor and for his glory. He will rebuild the breach in your spirit.

Much like what the Lord has allowed me to experience. I didn’t know I was infiltrating the enemies territory, but the Lord was walking with me the entire step of the way. He didn’t allow me to lose my mind like many have. Through that experience he started to guide me in his Word and began slowly transforming my mind, letting me in on some of the secrets he’s placed within his creation. Imagine if each child of God put on this same mind the hidden things that would be revealed!

You have nothing to fear if you have nothing to hide

One of the greatest tricks the enemy is to use our secrets to torment us. The things we can’t say. The things in which we hide. Not knowing that these very things God wants to bring to light because someone else’s deliverance is in your testimony. I’m not speaking of continuous backsliding or rebellion, I’m speaking about your healing from it!

There are some things the Devil wants you to keep secret so that you’ll never be healed from them. He wants to keep you his slave…his puppet. We become afraid to approach God. He says come Boldly to the throne of grace, but when we are feeble in the spirit and in sin and can’t even step up to the alter for our healing because we are in shame it’s impossible to be bold. James 5:16 say’s “confess your sins one to another and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man availeth much”. When God brings Light we’re able to know what to clean up in our lives.

The longer we stay here the stronger he gets

What environment are you in right now that may be a stumbling block to you? Where are you staying that is causing you to fall into sin. What thoughts are you mediating on? The longer you stay in “that” spot the hungrier your flesh gets. The stronger your desires get. And the stronger the enemy becomes in that area of your life. Allow God to take you out of that environment.

Notice Peter’s environment when he denied Christ 3 times. He warmed himself with sinners. He became comfortable around those who were in alliance with crucifying Jesus Christ. Bad business. In order to get ahead in life, to fit in, to feel regular what ever it is you may be compromising your faith for and setting yourself up to deny Christ in your own life, Don’t stay there any longer.

I have seen your heart and it is mine

This is a lie from the enemy. A lie to get you to fear; for if you fear you have not been made perfect in love. A lie to get you to doubt; For if you doubt your not walking in faith. If you’ve watched the trailer this line comes after “We have infiltrated the ministry”. This is key because satan is strongest when we fall into the lust of our flesh or choose to sin against God. We give way to the enemy and he’s now able to have a greater influence on our thoughts. Once he breaches the spirit he can say something bold like “I have seen your heart and it is mine” and you may just believe him.

----------Since This Is War-------------------------------------------------

June 6th 1994 was a memorable day for this country. That day was known as D-Day during War World II. During this war they had two systems put in place by Supreme Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower. One of them being P.L.U.T.O (Pipe Line Under The Ocean) which, Supply allied forces in Normandy with Fuel and another being U.L.T.R.A. which was an intelligent source that deciphered coded radio and gave vital information on troop deployments. Christians aren't we at war? Aren't we in the LAST DAY'S? Is our God a God who a far off and not near? Do we not serve a Living God?


I believe that in these last day's God is supplying us with fuel in an Unconventional way. I believe he is giving us information about our enemy and ways to defeat him in an Unconventional way. Morse Code one in where his children can receive it, but it is hidden from those separated from Christ:

For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them

-Matthew 13:15

Closing thoughts—

One thing we have to understand about Harry Potter is that he’s Chosen. There is one scene in the movie that really resonates to me, one in which can be seen in the trailer as well. Harry’s friends all dress up like him to distract those evil forces who sought to kill him. Why would the author write this? What is the Purpose? It’s because Harry Potter is chosen and has a purpose. His purpose is so great that the author saw it fit to put other characters lives on the line or even sacrfice other characters to help Harry in fulfilling his purpose, a purpose that is to be fulfilled though him, but one that is greater than him.

Just like you are chosen. God being the Author, the Screenwriter placed you in particular setting and because you are chosen and created with Purpose he will Redeem you. He will Heal you. Not for your sake, but for his names sakes. Isaiah 43:4 reads “because you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you, and people in exchange for your life”. in the Lord’s sight he will give men in exchange for your life.” Is this not what the creator of Harry Potter did for Harry?

Through parables Jesus wasn’t only teaching, but he was encouraging his disciples to look at the things around them with spiritual eyes. He encouraged them to look at a tree and a vine and not just merely see a tree and a vine, but see it in it’s relation to the Kingdom. Continue to be constantly transformed by the Word and the things around you will become the Word†
