As we deal with the Spirit of Jezebel know this she was a Priestess called to minister and enforce the lies of false gods hence making her a false prophetess.
Her husband carried the word back to her in 1 Kings 19;1-2, that Elijah had destroyed the alter of baal and her false prophets, while The True and The living God sent fire down from Heaven giving proof and evidence That Baal was not god but He was and Elijah was His (Yaweh)sent Prophet.
Why do you ask did Ahab even bring a report back to His wife? Kind of uncommon for a King to bring back a report to their wives right. First of all let me say this. God sent Elijah to Ahab The King to set Him straight so that HE would repent and set things back in order in Israel (after all he was the King). This is The reason why Ahab was on Mount Carmel in the first place (1kings 18;1-2) because Elijah was to present Himself to Ahab by Gods instructions. So that it would lead Him to repentance by showing Him proof the Living God was the One He needed to follow. God was giving him a chance to correct what his fathers before him did not. So why now after proof on Mount Caramel did Ahab even take a report back to his wife? Because she was The Priestess of Baal!
There were promises made to The Kingdom, and Ahab had converted over and was worshiping the wrong god because of deception. This is why the two kingdoms from Sidonians and Israel merged in the first place.
Lets take a look at what Baal means: It means "lord or master of good" sun god, a god of the rain, thunder, fertility and agriculture.
He was promised fruitfulness and growth in the land, he was promised prosperity and riches through rain and sunshine. Growth and fertility. Without Repentance, because He wanted to do things His way. Hence a promise to make Ahab one of the most powerful Kings ever if he just bowed down and worshiped him. Hmmm, sound familiar (Matthew 4;8-9) What Satan promised Jesus in the wilderness, right? Get it.
This is why God caused a great drought and shut up the heavens for about 3 years with no rain, hence no growth. It was to prove that He was The God of Heaven and Earth,The God that caused it to Rain and The Sun to shine so that frutifulness could come to the land, The True and Living God (because in essence this is what Baal was claimed to be by Jezebel and the false prophets). Never think God performs miracles just for your sake. Glory always has to come back to His Name. What God does is to prove to you that He is God when He performs miracles, signs and wonders. It is never for us to say that we are somebody. But to prove that He is God as we Witness Him reveal His self through all kinds of events and in return We are Converted to Serve and Worship Him Alone! Take A Look!
"Now Elijah the Tishbite, from Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, whom I serve, there will be neither dew nor rain in the next few years except at my word.” (1kings 17;1)
And this is also why He caused Elijah to announce The rain coming in 1kings 18;"After a long time, in the third year, the word of the LORD came to Elijah: “Go and present yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain on the land.” So Elijah went to present himself to Ahab." (1 kings 18;1-2). So that they could see He controlled fruitfulness, agriculture, heaven and Earth. HE IS LORD OF ALL THINGS!
So now why did Ahab take word back to Jezebel? Because she was the PRIESTESS OF THIS FALSE gods and promoted it's doctrine and lies. Ahab was telling her to let her know. Your gods were put to shame and your prophets were killed by Elijah who called on His God. Your god when called upon never came through. But Elijah's God did (The True and Living God).
She became embarrassed because it revealed her and her prophets as false teachers and prophets. It revealed their gods as false. And revealed them and their gods as liars. So him telling her that was actually taking her a report of WHO THE TRUE AND LIVING GOD WAS, BUT STILL NO CHANGE. JUST FEELINGS OF PRIDE AND RESISTANCE, THEIR COVENANT AND AGREEMENT WAS PROVEN A LIE. LIKE SATAN THE FATHER OF LIES.
Now Ahab told Jezebel everything Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword. So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah to say, “May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like that of one of them.” Elijah saw that and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there, while he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness. He came to a broom bush, sat down under it and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, LORD,” he said. “Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors.” Then he lay down under the bush and fell asleep. (1Kings 19;1-5).
So in turn Ahab did not Repent truely (he did but he went right back to his ways, which ultimatley led to his destruction) nor did Jezebel. She was determined to continue on as a false prophet, teaching the lies of a false god with no remorse or repentance. Making her an unrepentant Woman, who usurped Authority that did not belong to her. Operating illegally. And Ahab a wicked King, worshiping these false gods for prestige, fortune, fame and the like. Serving these gods because of the lustfulness of his own wicked and defiled heart. And this is how Jezebel was able to come in and usurp Authority. Through the wickedness of the Kings heart (his lust and greed for fame and fortune).
And this is also how Satan infiltrates The House of God through the lustful deeds of mans heart, his greed for fortune and fame and prestige. Some may not even recognize that they have fell down and worshiped Satan just to get riches and fame. Deceived into thinking it was God when in fact it is Baal.
So they both were punished because of their Rebellion and Disobedience and Witchcraft because God is not a MAN THAT HE SHOULD LIE! As you will see God Avenge Hisself in these coming Hours. Because The Body of Christ (Church) still today suffers the Spirit of Jezebel. Making covenant agreements with Baal. The Church Today is operating under false hope, and allowing the Anti Christ to come in and take over. BUT GOD IN THE END WILL STILL BE VICTORIUOS! GOD BLESS YOU I HOPE YOU WERE BLESSED BY THIS TEACHING! AMEN!
PRAYER FOR YOU: "FATHER GOD IN THE NAME OF JESUS, I PRAY FOR THOSE READING THIS TODAY THAT YOU WOULD BEGIN TO OPEN THEIR EYES TO YOUR TRUTH, AND TAKE THE VEIL OFF OF THEIR HEARTS THAT THEY MAY PERCEIVE THE TRUE AND LIVING GOD WHO SENT HIS ONLY SON TO SAVE AND REDEEM US IN THIS LOST WORLD. I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD GRANT US THE BOLDNESS TO ALWAYS SPEAK AND LIVE IN TRUTH THAT WE MAY BE KNOWN AND REVEALED AS THE TRUE SONS OF GOD IN THE EARTH THAT YOU MAY BE GLORIFIED! LET YOUR WILL BE DONE IN OUR LIVES AS WE LAY DOWN OUR LIFE AND DIE TO OUR AGENDA'S, MOTIVES, DESIRES, AND WILLS AND LET CHRIST ARISE IN US. LET YOUR KINGDOM BE EXALTED AND YOUR POWER AND LOVE BE MANIFESTED IN THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE." I THANK YOU AND PRAISE YOU LORD FOR MANIFESTATION AND THE OUTPOURING OF YOUR TRUE HOLY SPIRIT UPON ALL FLESH.
