After you have defended yourself against this spirit of Jezebel for a while, you'll notice that the fear you initially encountered is not in the forefront as it had once been. Instead it now operates on a lower level and is not easily detected when other areas of warfare are dominating the scene. As a result, you go after the heavy artillery and ignore the spirit of intimidation that lingers in the background. This robs you, however, of your effectiveness in the Holy Spirit.
If a spirit of intimidaiton is still in the arena, then you are not taking your rightful stance. It makes you feel like there is a need of constant warfare. This impression comes because the enemy is hitting your 'feeling realm' in hopes of suggesting that he is still raging after you have bound him.
Between these two tactics, you may be buying into the suggestion that things are not subdued after warring or that your victories are short-lived. This is a lie. When you bind something, it is bound, and he cannot undo it. You need to believe that instead of the impressions that you pick up from the enemey's camp.
When you bind Jezebel and the entire company of spirits that accompany it, they truly are bound; however, when the people hosting these spirits begin to pray or make declations, it is going to feel like they are breakig through. But it only occurs when you drop your shield of faith and doubt the validity of Matthew 16:19. Believe that He has given you the keys of the kingdom and that what you bind is bound and what you loose is loosed. As long as you stand your ground they can't touch you. You're a child of the Most High God, and based on your union with Christ, you are seated in heavenly places with Him. You have dominion over the enemy, so believe with your whole heart and they won't be abe to move you.
Unfortunately, the enemy refuses to admit defeat and will always try get you to doubt because if he can, then your bindings mean nothing. That's how important it is to believe that your're truly binding the enemy. It really boils down to ignoring the feeling realm and believing the Word of God. When you have bound things and he continues to call your bluff, it's time for you "having done all to stand, stand" until he leaves. That's called immoveable and unshakeable.
There's one more thing that relates to your stance and that is in the middle of all this you have to continue with life. Circumstances may be difficult and/or painful, but you must not convey that in your attitude. It's a time to act the part of someone who has the victory because you do have the victory. Carry your head high and don't feel sorry for yourself in the midst of the difficulties. It's not enough to say you have the victory, you have to walk like you have the victory. Believe it or not that is a definite form of warfare. Attitude is everthing, so partner get out your John Wayne walk and go get 'em cowboy!
