About the Author

Introduction

Jesus came to set physical and spirituaI captives free (Luke 4:18-19). The enemy, on the other hand, specialises in ensnaring and taking people captive. Today, many people are in his trap, prison, cage, dungeon, and so on. Although the Bible says that Jesus came to seek and save the lost, you as an individual, have the responsibility to consciously determine to recover yourself through personal discipline. This is the first key you need to your freedom. You must recover yourself from spiritual laziness, lack of discipline and ignorance that have turned many to the slaves of the devil. Yielding yourself to sin and obeying the devil automatically make you his servant. Therefore, the first key to your deliverance from slavery to sin and satan is genuine repentance.

Job 15:16 says, "How much more abominable and filthy is man, which drinketh iniquity like water? This Scripture implies that anyone who readily accepts and indulges in sinful behaviour is a fat slave and a prey to the devil. Romans 6:16 makes it quite clear, "Know ye not that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness."

Beloved, God wants you to be obedient to Him and become a slave or servant of righteousness (Romans 6:18).

Divine knowledge is the key to your deliverance. Jesus said, "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free" (John 8:32). This book is loaded with Bible-based instructions for your total deliverance from the spirit of slavery. It comprehensively explains what slavery is, the types of spiritual slavery, the dangers of slavery as well as how you can pray yourself out of the undignified camp of fat slaves. It also highlights the dangers of backsliding and provides important statements on freedom, which is the turnaround miracle that all fat slaves crave for.

Beloved, God did not create you a slave, neither does He want you to live and die as a spiritual or physical slave. He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to set you free from slavery and captivity. Your freedom means a lot to Him because He knows that you can serve Him better and fulfil your destiny when you are free than when you are in bondage. In 2 Corinthians 3:17, the Bible says, "Now the Lord is that spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."

Being a slave is inhuman, demeaning, shameful dehumanising and a harrowing experience. Slavery makes the victim less than the person God has created him or her to be. You must resist and reject anything that the enemy wants to use to turn you to a slave. Stay in Christ and remain righteous. Say no to backsliding. Sin is the trusted weapon the enemy has used successfully to ensnare, capture and enslave several thousands of people over the years, decades and centuries. You must not be ignorant of the devices of the devil.

Repent of all known sins; put off the old man and put on the new man (Colossians 3:9-10). By letting go of old sinful ways and embracing new godly ways, you will move from being a fat slave to being God's delivered child, chosen instrument and battle axe. This transformed life in Christ is God's utmost desire for you!

Chapter One

JOURNEY INTO SLAVERY

If you are a very careful reader of the bible you soon begin to understand that the whole of the bible is a journey that was taken into bondage and how that bondage was removed. In the book of Genesis, you find Adam and Eve in the garden, it was God that put them there. He gave them specific assignment and through deception the devil got Eve into the bondage followed by the husband through the sin of disobedience. Our fore-fathers travel straight away into slavery and lost their deposit in the garden. They were now driven out from the place because they could not stay there anymore with the spirit of rebellion in their lives. That situation has not changed, people still enter into bondage the same way they listen to the devil; they disobey God, they take an action and they travel into bondage.

But then, God made an immediate plan to redeem man from the problem which he had put himself. Therefore, God called Abraham and told Abraham to go to the land of Canaan and in that land he would establish a nation of Israel and through the seed of Abraham God redeemed man back to himself and relief him from journey to slavery. One of the tragedy of the scripture is that because of famine and hunger the people that were already in Canaan travelled back to Egypt. They left the promise land and went back to Egypt because of food.

Another tragedy of the scripture was that in that bondage they were there for four hundred and thirty years. At a time, this people now struggled to go back from where they came, a journey of about thirty-eight days took them forty years and in that wilderness they suffered from the curse of wandering. Eventually, they came back to the land of Canaan and the land of Israel was established; under King David and Solomon the nation of Israel became so big. If you look at the world map today and you see the nation they were under David then you understand what the Lord said. When he said, I am taking you to a land of milk and honey. All those places where they are bringing oil now in the east were nations that pay tribute to David, but when David went out of the scene Solomon took over and started his own journey into slavery. He had seven hundred wives and three hundred concubines and he served the idol that God warned them not to serve and God got angry.

The Lord divided the nation of Israel into two because of what Solomon did, he calls one the northern kingdom and the other one the southern kingdom. The southern kingdom is Judah then northern kingdom is Israel. This nation went along for some time, they started displacing them. Several times God would call them and said, I deliver you people from the land of bondage and I put you in this place and I asked you not to follow any other God. That part of Israel was taken to captivity, they ended up in bondage. The southern kingdom too was taken into bondage, the remnant returned to their own land and David have no place again and that was the end of the Old Testament.

Then God sent John the Baptist to come, he had a sample message which is, repent for the kingdom of God is at hand. He was a very strange fellow, his dressing was strange and His message was straight, he called people you brood of vipers. On the process Jesus came into the scene, He was killed and resurrected, He redeemed man back to himself and that journey of redemption that has taken off the bible closed. That is, the summary of what is in the bible.
