Blessings Consecration Partner,
September 11, 2019, I sensed a weight of heaviness and a peculiar unsettling in my spirit as I went about my morning errands. Holy Spirit prompted me to begin praying in my heavenly language. By the time I reached home, I was in full-blown prayer when I heard “constrictor”. I immediately thought of “python”. Since I am familiar with the workings of this spirit, I immediately became engaged in spiritual warfare.
About 3 months ago, the Lord placed a “sword” in my hand to be used against the enemy. I accessed my new weapon and began slaying, disrupting, and annihilating the schemes, wiles, and tactics of the enemy that were unleashed to confine, constrict, restrict and limit my progression. I also called down the fire and wrath of God against whatever the enemy was plotting to conjure up against me and/or my consecrated partners.
Shortly, thereafter I heard “Turn Around” & “Divine Reversal”! God had given me Genesis 50:20 as my portion of assurance that what the enemy meant for evil; had been TURNED AROUND / REVERSED, for our good. Glory Hallelujah🙌 Praise God who is our Great Defense!
What was that all about?
It is about the enemy being displeased with what God is doing: about him trying to frustrate a situation so that I will give up. But it will take a lot more than that for me to give up on God’s plan for you and me.
You maybe experiencing similar frustrations. Take a moment to think about what you have surrendered to God. Has the journey been easy or challenging? I would suspect that these past two weeks have been quite taxing.
Perhaps, you’ve surrendered fear to God, yet every fear-producing situation that can happen has; maybe you’re being mindful of your words, but people and circumstances are exasperating you beyond belief; or perhaps you may have given up some type of food or beverage such as sweets or caffeine that has tested your patience and endurance to an entirely another level. I can go on and on, but I think you get the picture: there’s a fight going on and we are in the middle.
Don’t be surprised when everything that could go wrong, does. The enemy, in his frustration with you, has declared all out war, but be ENCOURAGED. The scripture reminds us that, “Greater is He that is in me than He that is in the world (I John 4:4).”
Accordingly, you have AUTHORITY over the enemy and he has to conform to your commands.
Beloved, understand the victory is already ours; therefore our posture of warfare is not to gain victory; but it is always a posture from victory in Christ Jesus. Even though the enemy has been defeated at the Cross, he seeks to hold out against God’s authority; and therefore we must engage in spiritual warfare in ENFORCING his defeat.
SPIRITUAL WARFARE IS ENFORCING A VICTORY ALREADY WON!
PERSONAL REFLECTIONS
How is the Spirit speaking to you? Reflect on Ephesians 6:10-18, I John 4:4 and Genesis 50:20 and journal your insights.
(NOTE: These will be the exact same scriptures tomorrow for your reflection in case you prefer to save the last 2 for then)😘
