Solomon wrote that “there is nothing
new under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9). And so it is with Satan’s wiles;
they are not new. They include twisting the truth of Scripture, fear
mongering, manipulation of wounded egos and many more strategies that
fill Jezebel’s bag of tricks. The principality uses all these to gain
control

Some of the Amazingly Consistent Traits of the Jezebel Spirit:
Refuses to admit guilt or wrong
A Jezebel spirit is never wrong, unless it is a temporary admittance of
guilt to gain "favor" with someone. To accept responsibility would
violate the core of insecurity and pride from which it operates. When a
Jezebel apologizes it is never in true repentance or acknowledgment of
wrongdoing but rather "I'm sorry your feelings were hurt."
Uses people to accomplish its agenda
The Jezebel spirit lets others do its dirty work. The Jezebel gets
another person's emotions stirred up, then lets that person go into a
rage. The Jezebel sits back looking innocent, saying "Who me? What did I
do?" This behavior makes it difficult for even the most ardent truth
seekers to pin one down. The Jezebel spirit is clever in its agenda.
Lies
A Jezebel lies convincingly. No one can lie better than he can. He can
turn on the charm and make you believe blue is red. He always fools
those whom he's just met while those who have been victimized by his
tactics stand by helplessly. The fact that Jezebel can look you in the
eye and lie just shows how strong and adamant this rebellious and
recalcitrant spirit is.
Is vengeful
Since a Jezebel is never wrong, if you contradict or confront one, get
ready to become his worst enemy. As long as you are in agreement with
him, all is fine. But if you confront or challenge him, then look out.
You are the target of his fiercest venom. A Jezebel will stop at nothing
to destroy your reputation.
Is religious
A Jezebel dwells in the local church but doesn't like authority unless he is in the position of authority.
Looks like an interesting book!
Nevertheless, I have this against you:
You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her
teaching she misleads my servants... (Revelation 2:20)
