Who Was Jezebel?
The Bible introduces us to Jezebel as the powerful & manipulating wife of King Ahab. She was the daughter of King Ethbaal of the Sidonians, which means she was a princess. She was the Phoenician priestess who saturated Israel with the worship of Baal, Asheroth and other pagan gods. Over 450 prophets of Baal and 400 prophetess of Ashtoreth served Jezebel in her abominations of sex practices during the reign of Ahab. When she married King Ahab, she influenced him to began worshiping these gods she served and caused the children of Israel to worship them as well. The spirit of Jezebel is a principlaity spirit of perversion, lust, manipulation, mind control, witchcraft and the occult.
Ahab Provoked God To Anger
First, Ahab built a temple and an altar for Baal in Samaria, then Ahab set up an Asherah (The female goddess of fertility, love and war) pole. Ahab did more to provoke the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel, than any of the other kings of Israel before him. The worship of Baal and Asherah included temple prostitution where both men and women would do sex acts to raise money for religious activities in the temple. These demon false gods that they served also required the sacrifice of their children. This was called passing their children through the fire.
Jeremiah 19:5
The people of Judah stopped worshiping me and made this valley into a place of worship for Baal and other gods that have never helped them or their ancestors or their kings. And they have committed murder here, burning their young, innocent children as sacrifices to Baal. I have never even thought of telling you to do that.
1 Kings 21:25
So Ahab sold himself out to do what the Lord says is evil. There is no one who did as much evil as Ahab and his wife Jezebel, who caused him to do these things.
The Jezebel Spirit In Churches
Whether we recognize it or not, we see the Spirit of Jezebel operating everyday in our workplaces, our families and even in our churches! When I was a young girl growing up in the Pentecostal church, I was always told that Jezebel was a woman of the world who wore red dresses, bright red lip stick and red nails. This was the image of Jezebel that many of us grew up with in our minds and the image that some of us still believe to be true.
We were told that if you put on makeup you were a Jezebel. I believe this teaching came from the scripture that talked about Jezebel painting her face. This is not the proper teaching of what the spirit truly is. This teaching focuses more on the outward appearance of a woman and not on her heart. God looks at our hearts, not our outward appearance. The motive of her heart for putting on the makeup was to seduce Jehu so he would be distracted by her looks instead of what God sent him there to do.
2 Kings 9:30-34
Jehu approached Jezreel. When Jezebel heard the news, she put on some eye liner, fixed up her hair, and leaned out the window. When Jehu came through the gate, she said, “Is everything all right, Zimri, murderer of his master?” He looked up at the window and said, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three eunuchs looked down at him. He said, “Throw her down!” So they threw her down, and when she hit the ground, her blood splattered against the wall and the horses, and Jehu drove his chariot over her. He went inside and had a meal. Then he said, “Dispose of this accursed woman’s corpse. Bury her, for after all, she was a king’s daughter.”
Jezebel Hates The Prophets
The Jezebel spirit hates the prophet and the prophetic voice. She will do anything to discredit and kill the prophet with her murderous spirit.
1 Kings 18:4
Once when Jezebel had tried to kill all the LORD’s prophets, Obadiah had hidden 100 of them in two caves. He put fifty prophets in each cave and supplied them with food and water.)
Jezebel is a witch and she uses her witchcraft to control and set up her kingdom within the church. This spirit will come in and befriend the pastor and his wife along with others in leadership. She seeks out ministries where she can come in an take over. Jezebel never deals with the people it feels has no significance, other than to use them as her puppets and eunuchs.
This spirit moves like a snake and operates with the spirit of python and the spirit of Leviathan (pride). It will seem to be very friendly and spiritual to gain a foothold in your life. Like a snake, it will charm you with gifts and generous monetary offerings. These are often the doors that many come through as they look to seduce pastors and those in leadership positions.

You Can Be Delivered From Jezebel
Although the Jezebel spirit has great power and influence, the Lord Jesus is greater! He has the power to deliver and set us free from the bondage of this spirit. When we truly want deliverance from this spirit, we must be willing like her eunuchs to throw her down. Throw her down as queen of your heart and ask Jesus Christ to rule and reign in your heart. One of the ways to be delivered from this spirit is through the prophetic word spoken by the prophets of God.
