Jonathan Cahn: The Mystery of Holy Rebellion
Is there it possible for rebellion to actually be holy?
In a message by prophetic voice Jonathan Cahn, Cahn discusses how rebellion can actually be a righteous act by God’s people.
“Anywhere where sin reigns, rebellion is a virtue,” Cahn says. “Meaning, rebelling against sin [is] rebelling against evil.”

Cahn points out that we live a culture that is becoming more wicked all the time, the darkness continuing to become even darker.
“Even in our lives there’s a holy rebellion and [you] say, ‘you know what? I am not going to give in to this anymore. I’m not going to submit to the enemy anymore. Why am I obeying him when I should be rebelling against that?’” Cahn states.
Cahn points out the story of Jonah and how he rebelled against God’s commands as a way for us to know that just as we once fought against God and His ways in our rebellious nature we must now serve Him.
“You rebelled for the wrong reason, now rebel for the right reason,” says Cahn. “Starting ignoring the devil. Start ignoring temptation…don’t show up where they enemy is calling.”
In the way that we rebelled against God with our whole hearts before accepting Him as Lord and Savior, now we are called to be fervent, faithful servants of Him who refuse to submit to the leadership of the enemy. We cannot allow Satan to have one foot-hold into our lives for true victorious living.
Cahn wisely assesses that it doesn’t matter what has happened in the past, who hurt us or what circumstances we’ve found ourselves in. We cannot get stuck in the old way of thinking and living that is dictated by the enemy. Instead, we must find ourselves fully devoted to the cause of Christ who has already given us the victory.

“You may have had a lot of conflict in your life,” Cahn says. “It may be you doing it, it may be other people, maybe both, but the Bible is saying here also there’s more to it. Not only depart from evil, but also depart from all that stuff. Don’t live your life replaying and replaying and replaying the conflict that you’ve had with people or the conflict they had with you.”
“Stop trying to figure it all out. Stop dwelling on all the bad and junk in your life that people have done or that’s happened in your past,” he continues. “You are a victor that’s the opposite of victim.”
