Much can be said about the work of the devil on earth throughout the ages. The evidence of demonic forces are clearly seen and felt in this world we live in. To crown it all it won’t get better but progressively worse until the climax of the ages on the day of the Armageddon. The devil will just get bolder and bolder as time progresses.
Strongholds of the devil can be demolished in advance by God’s Word.
Josh 6:2 NKJV And the LORD said to Joshua: “See! I have given Jericho into your hand, its king, and the mighty men of valor.
When confronted with strongholds, obedience to God’s commandments (Word) become most essential. Behind Jericho, Israel’s first stronghold was the Promised Land. To overcome, and bring down the walls, required faith and obedience.
Joshua was obedient to every command given to him by God as well as Moses. The first time we hear of him is in Ex 17:9-10 where he immediately and without question obeys the command of Moses. This obedience was the reason why Joshua was such a remarkable leader and as a result, enjoyed great rewards.
1 Samuel 23 v 16
God uses situations to groom you, to get you ready, to teach you how to behave under pressure, to teach you how to step forward and take on the enemy. The Almighty God also knows the potential He is going to be releasing through you and He is giving you the skill, grooming you and teaching you Faith.
We are Born with a purpose. People do not realize the emensity of the purpose and the destony and the spicific calling on thier lives
Hab 2:2-3 (NKJV)
Then the Lord answered me and said:
"Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry.
Psalm 89 v 19 to 27
One of the most precious things in life is to know the will, plan and purpose of God for our lives. After all, this is all that matters. If we step into HIS will it is like stepping into a surge or current of supernatural energy that begins to work in us. Finding His will and purpose and responding to it, is like kindling a fire and stepping into His incredible blessedness and peace of heart.
In times of trouble, prayer coupled with fasting can mean the difference between life and death.
GOD knows when faith is released through WORD-based prayers. This causes lives and situations to change and improve. Faith destroys and shatters demonic resistance, allowing doors of opportunity to be opened.
How serious are you really about obtaining an answer to your prayers? Urgent ones? Important ones? We can achieve great spiritual momentum and breakthroughs through prayer, intensified with fasting, making our prayers real serious. This does not go unnoticed by the Father. Jesus said that we would be fasting and He wouldn't have said that if it was worthless. In fact, He himself fasted and we are His disciples.
