Fight Having Faith in God

The message, I am about to share with you this morning, is for the mature Christian. Don’t tune me out and don’t stop reading. By now you have grown strong in the wisdom and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. You’ve faced some giants in your life and you have overcome by the power of the Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus.

You have a quickening in your spirit and you sense something of extreme urgency is happening. We are in the battle. It is fierce and unrelenting. There is terror on every front. It’s time to call in the Big Guns, holy artillery…Be filled with the Holy Ghost and Fire! That sentence will not frighten you. You know exactly what I’m talking about. This message is not for the faint of heart, nor, for anyone who is walking the fence. Your faith is in the King of Glory! Jesus, The Lion of Judah is majestic and supreme.

There is a cry being sent out…Pray in the Spirit and with understanding…the tools of the Holy Spirit must be fully engaged and fully functional. Holy discernment, casting out demons, healing the sick and raising the dead, spread the Good News. This is available to us, the sons and daughters of God, in the Name of Jesus.

We are fully clothed in our war-gear and we are ready for the fight. It is a 24-7 mission all are on call. We are alert and watching…

The enemy is not sleeping…he is not playing…he is determined and has set traps for not just our capture but for our death and destruction. We must be at our best. We must not be vulnerable or weak. We build ourselves up praying in the Holy Ghost. He is our guide. He has given us everything we need for this battle. From the time we are conceived we are fighting…We’ve been called from the womb. There are souls unaware of the enemy’s strongholds…but we’ve been given insight and direction by the Holy Spirit.

This morning I was sleeping an evil presence tried to take me out…I tried to cry out but could not even get out a whisper…I tried to cast it off of me in the name of Jesus but he would not let go…I thought I had, had a stroke because I could not get free…finally by the grace of God, I woke up and realized I was alright physically. But the vision or dream was so real it was several minutes before I could function. Bob had come into the room and I told him what happened he knelt down beside the bed and prayed. I got up but still this weird feeling was lingering. I took authority over it in the name of Jesus and said, “You HAVE to GO in the name of Jesus, you cannot stay…and I was released.

I received a text from a sister in the Lord that her son didn’t want to live…we have been praying for him. She said she was going to get him and get him help. I called another sister in the Lord, a strong prayer warrior and we agreed together for His deliverance and for my healing. The presence of God was strong and powerful.

This is why I’m writing this message today. This warfare is real. It is no joke. It is serious. The devil is mad. We had 189 souls give their hearts to Jesus at our Church on Easter Sunday and that was just at our church. I know there were others all over the world. It is no time to walk the fence. It is no time to play church or have a watered down faith…We must be prepared and determined. Yes God is fighting this battle and he has already won…but we are in the thick of it…and we better know who it is we are fighting. It is not about flesh and blood it is a spiritual battle, but it affects the natural realm. Put on the Whole Armor of God and know we are not alone…and that it is IN THE NAME OF JESUS we move and breathe and have our being. We cannot fight the devil in our flesh or on our own…

Our war book is the Bible…

Our war garments are Love, Joy, Praise and Praying in the Holy Spirit…

Our war Song is Amazing Grace

Our war is fought on the battle field of the mind, body and spirit

We are fighting Powers and Principalities of the air and in the heavens…

Use the tools you have been given…The word of God. It will chop off the head of demons and in the name of Jesus they have to run…Do not be afraid. Do not back down, God is in the battle with us we will not be defeated. Amen!!!

Spiritual warfare is serious…it is real and it is constant…

The Bible says, in Ephesians 6:12 New American Bible, (Revised Edition), For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens.

When we acknowledge that Jesus is the Son of God, and we invite him to live within our hearts, the Holy Spirit comes to live in us. He begins to teach us who Jesus is and how to live, and walk and talk God’s way. Our will must yield to His will. His plan is to give us hope and a future with him and not to hurt us.

Soldier, stand ready and fight with all of your might, in the Name of Jesus Christ the anointed one of the Most High God!!

All it takes is faith and surrender!
