BIBLICAL ASPECTS of THE COVERT JEZEBEL SPIRIT

In places where it's still legal to openly discuss the Bible, it's widely assumed the keys to victory in spiritual combat against the Jezebel-type spirit and its brethren can be found in the Book of Ephesians. For something that can rock someone's life in such an overpowering & unconventional way, many find answers in (seemingly) unconventional sources.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.  Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.  Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.  With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

When Jehu came to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it. And she painted her eyes and adorned her head and looked out of the window.

And when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the Lord, Obadiah took a hundred prophets and hid them by fifties in a cave and fed them with bread and water.)

But I have this against you, that you tolerate that woman Jezebel,  who calls herself a prophetess and is teaching and seducing my servants  to practice sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols.

And when Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?” He answered,  “What peace can there be, so long as the whorings and the sorceries of your mother Jezebel are so many?”

And as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of  Jeroboam the son of Nebat, he took for his wife Jezebel the daughter of  Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and went and served Baal and worshiped  him.

There was none who sold himself to do what was evil in the sight of the Lord like Ahab, whom Jezebel his wife incited.

And you shall strike down the house of Ahab your master, so that I may  avenge on Jezebel the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood  of all the servants of the Lord.

Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had killed all  the prophets with the sword. Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah,  saying, “So may the gods do to me and more also, if I do not make your  life as the life of one of them by this time tomorrow.” Then he was  afraid, and he arose and ran for his life and came to Beersheba, which  belongs to Judah, and left his servant there. But he himself went a  day's journey into the wilderness and came and sat down under a broom  tree. And he asked that he might die, saying, “It is enough; now, O Lord,  take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.” And he lay down  and slept under a broom tree. And behold, an angel touched him and said  to him, “Arise and eat.” ...
