In this teaching, Pastor Brandon examines what it means to “sell yourself to do evil” (1 Kings 21) and the serious implications of this contractual, covenantal language. From Ahab and Jezebel’s idolatry to modern-day occult practices, he shows how selling oneself to sin is a transactional surrender to demonic authority—but also how God provides a way back through repentance and restoration.

You’ll also hear insights into:
✅ How Jezebel introduced false gods into Israel
✅ Why Ahab’s weakness allowed the Jezebel spirit to thrive
✅ The biblical truth behind “selling your soul” and demonic covenants
✅ Why no covenant with the occult is permanent—freedom is always possible through Christ
✅ The Hebraism of God “removing His face” and the danger of being out of fellowship
✅ The seriousness of sin, repentance, and walking in covenant blessing
✅ The true meaning of being strong in the Lord—not fleshly strength, but strength in His promises

The call is clear: Don’t be deceived by false power or worldly gain. The enemy may offer fame, wealth, or seduction, but it always comes at a price of destruction. True blessing is found in fellowship with God and in ministering to others through the strength He provides.
