THE CRY OF THE SPIRIT DEVOTIONALS – BY RICHARD E. S. TAKIM

TODAY’S DEVOTION (THURSDAY 7TH MARCH 2024)

“I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.” Galatians 5:16-18 NKJV

WELCOME TO THE 67TH DAY OF OUR YEAR OF IMPACT.

This is the day the LORD has made, we shall rejoice and be glad in it. He has been faithful, that is why we are alive.

Yes, He has also been gracious, that is why we have not been grounded by the darkness of this age. He has been merciful, that is why we have not been messed up by the devil and his miseries. He has been compassionated towards us, that is why captivity have been far from us.

He is a great God, and the shelter of His greatness has been of great help to us in a world infiltrated by evil.

Day unto day, He have been revealing the knowledge of His will to us, and we are grateful. Today will not be different; we will remain ever grateful.

We will be looking at the knowledge of His will in the area of our Christian walk. I hope we are ready.

There are two major walks that the Bible talks about; yes, two major walks that you see in the lives of men, especially those who have given their lives to Christ; a walk in the Spirit and a walk in the flesh.
Every one living in darkness, walks in the flesh, and everyone living in light should walk in the Spirit.

Salvation places a responsibility on us to walk in the Spirit. It takes away every reason to walk in the flesh. But sadly, many of us who are saved are still walking in the flesh. That is why we stull suffer what sinners suffer, and share in the very eternal heritage they share.

Walking in the flesh after being saved, is one major walk the Bible warned us against. It is a walk that does not lead to glorious ends.

Everyone who has ever began with Jesus, and ended with Satan, walked in the flesh after meeting Jesus. Everyone who is in a backslidden state in church, walked in the flesh after meeting Jesus.
He or she decided to end in the flesh, what God started in his or her life in the Spirit.

LET US CONSIDER ONE OR TWO PEOPLE IN THE BIBLE WHO DID EXACTLY THAT.

Judas Iscariot was one of them. In the light of the glory that is ahead of those who walked with the LORD, he was one of the most privileged men to ever live on the face of the earth. One of the eternal reasons is, he was divinely destined, to become one of the 24 elders in Heaven.

But the conflict of wills made him a betrayer of his LORD and Savior Jesus Christ. He ended in the flesh, what the LORD started for him in the Spirit. His “will” ran into conflict with God’s “will” because the carnal things his heart was walking in after meeting the LORD.

You will not continue with the LORD, if you allow your heart to go carnal after meeting Him. You may continue with a Church, especially a Church that has lost touch with the LORD; but will never continue with the LORD.

Though a prophecy had gone years ahead about someone betraying Christ, and judgment decreed, it was not God’s will for Judas to be the one. That was why Jesus carefully those who were to be His original 12 apostles.

The Bible says, He spent an entire night praying before choosing them.

It is not in the character of God, to chosen anyone in His will to fulfil a negative prophecy, and be condemned. The Bible says, His plans for us are not of evil but of good; to give us a future and a hope.

Judas made himself the person, by walking in the flesh after meeting the LORD. He moved from fulfilling a precious and glorious destiny, to fulfilling an inglorious destiny.

Friend, everyone who walks in the flesh, will fulfill a prophecy that is negative. Yes, everyone in Christ, who slip back into a life in the flesh, will end up being used of the devil to destroy anything in God’s kingdom; that is without even realizing it.

The flesh can make a Child of God loose very precious blessing in the kingdom of God. The flesh can make a faithful Child of God betray Jesus unexpectedly. The flesh can take a Child of God from the things of the Spirit to other things in few moments.

Yes, it can take one who have been following the LORD from the pathways that God has predetermined for him or her, to pathways the enemy has planned for him or her.

ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS LIVES TO LIVE, ESPECIALLY AFTER MEETING THE LORD, IS A LIFE IN THE FLESH!

In one of our previous devotions, we shared on the glorious things spoken concerning us. We will not be able to fulfil those things if we walk in the flesh.

Walking in the flesh has turned powerfully anointed pastors into s*xual addicts, and reduced great prophets into lost souls. It is the reason for secret sins and all forms of sinful habits in our lives.

Walking in the flesh would have ruined Joseph when Potiphar’s wife presented herself to him freely and even secretly. It would have ruined his divine destiny as the future prime minister of Egypt and saviour of the then world.

We fall into the traps of the enemy only when we walk in the flesh. We ruin our glorious destinies only when we walk in the flesh. We turn the power of God off in our lives, and open them up to all forms of evil, only when we walk in the flesh.

We make the enemy stronger than God in our lives only when we walk in the flesh; not even when we do not pray, because a person who live a life of prayer but still walk in the flesh is destroying the results of his or her prayers.

The reason we pray so much and get very little results, is because we do not continue life in the Spirit after spending time in prayer.

Right Prayer is a thing of the Spirit. So, after you have done something in the Spirit, do not do something in the flesh. What you do in the flesh will always destroy what you did in the Spirit, just as what you do in the Spirit destroys what you did in the flesh.

The life style of walking in the flesh after prayer will result in a frustrated Christian life, and you see that in the life of every frustrated Christian today.

Sadly, there is no one people call generals of the faith in this age and time who is teaching us how to walk in the Spirit. They all teach other things, and the ignorant call them fathers of the faith.

THEY LEAVE THOSE WHO STUDY THE FAITH OF OUR BIBLE FATHERS WONDERING WHICH FAITH THEY ARE FATHERING!!

Friend, only eternity can accurately tell what walking in the flesh has caused every child of God!

Our devotional this morning was sent to us from Heaven to redeem us from ruining ourselves after meeting the LORD. The easiest way to defeat the plan of God for your life is to walk in the flesh. But the easiest way to fulfil them is to walk in the Spirit.

Walking in the flesh will always be a breeding ground of ruin in the life of a Child of God! It’s therefore important that we learn how not to walk in the flesh, else we will even be condemned in the next life.
Today’s devotional text says, “I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh”

If we walk in the Spirit of God, we will not fulfil the desires of our flesh!

If you do not walk in the Spirit, you will construct a breeding ground of sudden destruction in your life like Judas did. If you walk in the Spirit of God, you will prevent Satan from luring you to construct the breeding ground.

Now, how do we walk in the Spirit? Let me show you a mystery!
The fall of man planted a sin seed in us. It is that seed that makes it impossible to learn how to sin against God. That seed makes it possible to live in sin naturally. It makes it possible to be able to sin against God without going to school to learn how.

In other words, we are born with the ability to live and walk in the flesh. We do not need to be taught to lie, to have s*x, to steal, to do the despicable. We just know how to do all that by nature. It is just the environment we need.

However, when we truly get born again, all that will change.

Genuine salvation encounter plants a seed of righteousness within a man or woman, making him or her God’s righteous seed. The Bible says in 1 John chapter 3 verses 9; “Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.”

EVERY GENUINE SALVATION ENCOUNTER WILL PLANT A RIGHTEOUS SEED WITHIN A MAN.

The purpose of that seed is to give us the ability to live righteously by a recreated spiritual nature, the very nature of Christ; the same way we once lived sinfully by natural nature.

That seed is a seed of the Holy Spirit, whose job is to guide us in the ways of salvation. Walking in the Spirit therefore, is allowing that seed to guide you through life by influencing your day to day decision.

It is responding to the seed of the Holy Spirit within us positively, whenever it urges us to say no to the desires of the flesh.

There are three basic desires of the flesh that if you satisfy beyond God’s established boundaries; you will grant the enemy access into your life. I call them “the carnal cravings of the flesh.”

Those desires are the desire for s*x, the desire for food, and the desire for comfort.

The flesh always craves for s*x, food and comfort even outside divinely established boundaries. This happens in the life of every one, born again or not.

For instance, the flesh does not know if a man or woman who is married is either married or not. It will always tell him or her to go sleep with this or that person. It will ask you to go to bed with whoever it feels attracted to, especially when the environment is there.

The holy you, or the recreated spirit nature of Christ within you, is the one to tell it, “no, I am born again.” But if that nature is not there, you might not be able to do that all the time.

Walking in the flesh, is granting the flesh its desire for s*x with anyone; even if the person is married to another man or woman, or is a minister of the gospel, or even a blood relative. But walking in the Spirit is responding to the righteous urge within you, and saying no to the flesh, like Joseph did.

This morning, God sent this word to tell us to stop feeding our flesh with all it requests; to stop being a slave of our flesh. Yes, He wants us to stop giving our flesh what it desires, especially outside divinely set boundaries.

He wants us to stop the construction of breeding grounds of ruin in our lives.

Christians who accept Jesus, then return back to walking in the flesh, will be condemned eternally in the next life if they die that way. In other words, being in Christ Jesus and walking in the flesh at the same time is dangerous.

IT IS A PROCESS THAT RETURNS A CHILD OF GOD BACK TO THE CONDEMNED STATE HE OR SHE WAS BEFORE MEETING THE LORD.

But those who accept Jesus and maintain a walk in the Holy Spirit, are the ones who will make it to Heaven if they die that way; they will have no condemnation in the next life. That is the true position of the authentic grace gospel in the Holy Scriptures.

Sadly, most grace preachers mutilate this scriptural position and sale heresy to the Church. But you can make this day a day of light by meditating on these devotional truths.

Let THIS SCRIPTURE be an ADDITIONAL MEDITATION OF FAITH for you TODAY!

“THEREFORE, [there is] now no condemnation (no adjudging guilty of wrong) for those who are in Christ Jesus, who live [and] walk not after the dictates of the flesh, but after the dictates of the Spirit.” Romans 8:1 AMP

THE CRY OF THE SPIRIT DEVOTIONALS – BY RICHARD E. S. TAKIM

TODAY’S DEVOTION (TUESDAY 5TH MARCH 2024)

“The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague those who hate him.” Psalms 89:22-23 NKJV

WELCOME TO THE 65TH DAY OF OUR YEAR OF IMPACT.

The last time the scripture of our devotional text came to us, as Spirit and life, in a Church service, a portal of Heaven opened over us and great victories over darkness were unleashed upon us from the Throne of God.

Since then, many have been running with that word, and seeing God confirming it in their lives, with signs and wonders. The faithfulness of God to His word is awesome.

Personally, I have ran with it for over 30 years. The word works!

Or yes, the word works. You will never know it, until you come to the place of fully believing in God for your life. Until you come to the place where the dragon seems to have taken over everyone to harm and hurt you in all fronts, and you have no one but God to run to.

The scripture of our devotional text today, is a heritage of the Davidic generation; an end time generation that will be fought in all fronts by the wicked one, hence the heritage.

If you are part of the Davidic generation, today’s word will bless you amazingly. In our devotional today, we will be highlighting some truths on spiritual warfare. Yes, spiritual warfare!!
Spiritual warfare is inevitable.

Now, I am not saying spiritual attacks, I said spiritual warfare. The two are not the same. We can be protected from spiritual attacks, but cannot be protected from spiritual warfare, because being a Child of God alone gets you enlisted in spiritual warfare.

The origin of spiritual warfare is not man. Spiritual warfare began before Mankind was created. So, we were created in a battle field. God’s will is that the enemy who was defeated on the cross of Calvary remains defeated in our lives.

However, if he outwits you in battle, you will be in trouble because spiritual warfare is a battle of wits, not actually a battle of prayer.

You see, you can pray and still be defeated in spiritual warfare. But you cannot be a man or women of spiritual wits, and be defeated in spiritual warfare. Even when you pray, your prayers will be different.

They will always bring victory, because you will be praying with wits.

SPIRITUAL WARFARE IS A BATTLE OF WITS.

When we say wits, we are referring to intelligence, common sense, understanding, and the use of the head or mind to make way.

Actually, in spiritual warfare, it is those who use their Holy Ghost filled head that goes ahead of their enemies, or come out victorious. Those whose heads are not filled with the Holy Ghost, or who may be filled with Him but do not engage their heads, will never be ahead of their enemies in life.

Friend, understand that, the enemy can outwit whoever does not have a Holy Ghost sense to put to use in spiritual warfare.

The dictionary defined the word “outwit,” to mean, “to get the better of, by superior intelligence.”

In the context of our devotional today, when the enemy gets the better of you, by superior intelligence, he has outwitted you in battle. He will begin to rule and ruin you and all that concerns you, no matter how prayerful you might be. That is why many still go down despite their prayers.

Believe it or not, that is what is happening to so many Christians today – the devil getting a better of them by superior intelligence.

For instance, he will use acceptable teachings of grace, that allows sin to reign supreme in your life, to keep you filthy enough to be perpetually oppressed by him, made sick, or under spiritual attacks, or even depressed by his demons.

Then he will use the same preacher, to point the reason for your woes on some altars from your village. In response, you will begin to give sacrificially to the preacher, in the name of destroying the evil altars or raising another, while the real problem is in your sinful life, you being on the paths of iniquity.

By that, he has outwitted you in battle. You will never be free permanently. You will only end up freeing the preacher you are giving to, permanently from financial hardship.

He knows his activities only prevail where the glory does not dwell, and the glory and sin do not coexist. So, he will make sure you keep doing this that will keep God’s glory from your life.

If you are a smart type, he will give you an anointed preacher who is limited in revelation to sit under, and keep suffering the same fate.

At most he will make the preacher, a preacher who steal from other people’s messages, just to keep feeding you with what is true, without him being of the truth; all in a bid to keep you where the rest you need will never come.

BY ALL THIS, HE HAS OUTWITTED YOU IN BATTLE. HE HAS USED A SUPERIOR INTELLIGENCE TO DEFEAT YOU.

Sadly, many do not know that one can be anointed and still be very ignorant of the deep things of God that the saints needs.

Most of them go into the deep things of the devil instead, to feed people with in the name of spiritual warfare. While some others live in sin and take the presence of the anointing in their lives as a sign that God has no problem with what they might be doing.

None of this kind of preachers can be of a great help for you in any spiritual warfare. The enemy has outwitted them, and will use them to put you under the same pool or prison in the realm of the spirit.

Sadly, so many of us in Church today have been outwitted by the enemy in so many ways, chiefly the way of sinful living.

In fact, talking about fighting with superior intelligence, there are those that the enemy has used Romans 8:1 to get a better of them, in matters of sin. He used untaught preachers to make them believe that, “there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.” Without adding, “who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit.”

He did that to keep them moving from sin to sin, because he knows so long as they live in sin, they are his own, according to scriptures (1 John 3:8). From this, you can see that he has had a superior intelligence over them.

Whenever you see a Christian or preacher quoting Romans 8:1 half way, you have seen a man or woman living in secret sins.

A pastor once used this half-quoted scripture to keep a lady he was not married to in s*xual sin for a long time.

We have discovered that almost all the grace preachers, who quote the portion of Romans 8:1 that suits them, and leave the rest, are living in sin. The enemy has outwitted them in battle!

BUT OUR DEVOTIONAL TEXT THIS MORNING SAYS;

“The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague those who hate him.” Hallelujah!

If the enemy has outwitted you in any way, please use this word to wake up from slumber; else, the next thing that will happen, is the sons of wickedness afflicting you. If you get to that place, it will become too messy with you.

You must heed to this word, if you belong to the Davidic generation; God’s breed of end time giant killers.

Historically, this was a prophetic blessing God placed on David because of the wars the young man was called to fight. It was placed on him the Day Samuel visited his home.

From that day, God began by making sure that the enemy does not outwit David in battle, because if David is outwitted in battle, the sons of wickedness will afflict him. If the sons of wickedness afflict him, the purposes of GOD in his hands will perish.

Child of GOD, there are battles God has assigned to you, by divine destiny, to fight for him too. If the enemy outwit you in those battles, His purposes in your hands will perish.

Yes, there are divine purposes placed in your hands. Maybe the revelation of what they are has not come to your prophetic senses, but they are there. God’s plan is for the enemy not to outwit you in battle so that those purposes will stand.

You must therefore come to the place of defeating the superior intelligence of the evil one using sound doctrine. It takes sound doctrines by the hand and mouth of apostolic authorities to defeat superior intelligence from Satan. That is why dark preachers and those who love them hate people with sound doctrines.

Yes, church leaders and people who have become pillars of the superior intelligence of Satan in the present church, hate those with sound doctrines from God. They know they are God’s demolition men, sent out to bring down all forms of superior intelligence from Satan.

WHAT CAN WE GLEAN FROM THIS?

If we allow the enemy to outwit us in the battles of life, it will open the door for every son of wickedness to begin to afflict us; first in our spiritual life, then financial, then marital, then other critical aspects of life.

In spiritual warfare, wherever a son of wickedness is successfully afflicting you, the enemy has outwitted you in that area; he has used superior intelligence to beat you to the game.

All you need is sound doctrine to conquer his superior intelligence, not powerful prayers.

In fact, Satan will prefer you going for what is called powerful prayers instead of sitting to receive sound doctrine. Under such circumstances, no prayer will ever help you with permanent deliverance or rest, until you gain intelligence over him.

To gain that intelligence, you will need to plant yourself in a Church that functions as “the School of the Spirit,” where the sound doctrine of the word is taught. That is the message of today!

MAKE THIS SCRIPTURE AN ADDITIONAL MEDITATION TODAY;

“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing; To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. Psalm 92:12-15 KJV

THE CRY OF THE SPIRIT DEVOTIONALS – BY RICHARD E. S. TAKIM

TODAY’S DEVOTION (MONDAY 4TH MARCH 2024)

“O Lord, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom you have made them all. The earth is full of your possessions —

These all wait for you, that you may give them their food in due season. What you give them they gather in; you open your hand, they are filled with good.” Psalms 104:24, 27, 28 NKJV

WELCOME TO THE 64TH DAY OF OUR YEAR OF IMPACT.

It was a great teaching session we had yesterday in Church. I want to encourage us to share the link of the video, especially the first service, to as many as possible, so that we can save the unsaved who claim saved in Church.

We all claimed that too, without knowing what Salvation is. The result was a manifestation of Titus 1:16 in our lives. In that scripture, the Bible says;

“They profess to know God [to recognize, perceive, and be acquainted with Him], but deny and disown and renounce Him by what they do; they are detestable and loathsome, unbelieving and disobedient and disloyal, and rebellious, and [they are] unfit and worthless for good work (deed or enterprise) of any kind.” Titus 1:16 AMPC

As painted in this scripture, many of us profess to recognize, perceive, and be acquainted with God, but deny, disown and renounce Him by what we do.

In simple terms, we claim to be saved, from the clergy to the laity, but if you observe our behaviors and moral lives, you will see that we are not. We claim to know the LORD, but by our works, we deny ever knowing Him.

We are detestable, loathsome, unbelieving in many respects, disobedient to the word; the core teachings of the Bible, disloyal and rebellious.

We are in God’s sight unfit and worthless for good works, hence not experiencing the presence of the LORD that we need to experience. We just carry oil and water and so called prayer clothes, run to this prayer center and the other prayer center, doing what we call raising altars and etc.

Sadly, by the way we live it is clear that many do not know what salvation is.

Come to think of it, how can you claim to be born again when you do not know what born again is, except what the shallow rooted preacher told you? You did not search the Bible yourself to find out even after joining the Church system.

MANY DO NOT KNOW SUCH HEAVEN MAKING TEACHINGS, AND THEIR SOULS STANDS ETERNALLY AT RISK.

So, share that video on the ministry’s YouTube channel, PRESENT TRUTH FOR PRESENT TIMES (The Grace Connection Part one, | preached in Yesterday’s 1st service, Sunday 3rd March 2024), to as many believers as possible, and follow them up to listen to it. You might be saving some if you do, and earn some crowns in heaven.

In our devotional today we will be uncovering the power of divine seasons.

Actually, our Church generation is yet to come into the full revelation of divine seasons. That is why we struggle and let life go in a circle. God does things under Heaven in times and seasons.

It is really deadly spiritually to be ignorant of that, and more so to be prophetically deaf to a supernaturally determined season of GOD for your life.

The difference between the glorious us and the suffering us lies in our ability to recognize and seize a supernaturally determined season of God for our life. Life on earth is in seasons! Breakthrough is a season thing. Lasting blessings comes in their seasons.

Nothing significant will happen in your life if you do not live your days according to the seasons of God for them. That was one of the reasons why Moses prayed saying unto God, “teach us to number our days, so we can apply our hearts unto wisdom.”

One major wisdom to apply our hearts unto as we live our days is the wisdom of doing thing according to God’s timing and season for them.

If we do not come to terms with this truth, we will keep struggling, fighting, competing with ourselves, and taking decisions that will result in more and more struggles.

You see, those who understand God’s will for their lives, and His determined success season for them, do not compete with anyone. They live according to divine will, comparing themselves with no one but the will of God for their lives.

MOST OF OUR WORRIES AND TROUBLES IN LIFE ARE CONSEQUENCES OF NOT UNDERSTANDING THESE SIMPLE BUT PROFOUND TRUTHS.

If you are working according to God’s will for your life, and Putting your hands to work diligently, there will come a season when God will announce your works to the world and lift you up greatly. For us in God’s will, Season is what determines our success in life.

Times and seasons carry a silent instruction from God to make the diligent who are in God’s will and ways succeed at appointed times and season.

Yes, they have been given the power to determine certain triumphs, especially in the lives of those who are serving their generation according to the will of God.

Time has also been given the power to kill and make alive. Yes, it has the power to reward wickedness and faithfulness. That is why we must be careful. For instance, when the time comes for the wickedness of a wicked person to be rewarded with death, nothing can stop time from taking his or her life.

That is how time sanitize or rip the earth of wicked men and women.

When the season comes for faithfulness to be rewarded by Heaven, no force on earth, in Heaven, or beyond the earth can stop that from happening. Your faithfulness to God and man will be rewarded immensely even in the presence of your enemies.

They will be watching you prosper effortlessly because it is your time.

It is therefore important that we respect the power of times and seasons, and remain faithful in doing good, because we will reap if we faint not.

In God’s kingdom, we do not run our lives aimlessly, we are driven by vision and the revelation of things that happen to us in their season. We gather in our times and season, especially after a time and season of faithfulness to God.
Our devotional text said.

“These all wait for you, that you may give them their food in due season. What you give them they gather in; you open your hand, they are filled with good.”

Whenever a faithful man or woman enters his or her season of reward in the Spirit, things will start lining up in the natural for him or her. They will begin to gather whatever God has given them that they could not access before.

They will see their season forcing God to open His arm towards them, and give them things that their eyes have not seen, their ears heard, or hearts conceived. They find the season pulling men and substance to them from unexpected ends.

Interestingly, I have seen those that such glorious seasons of their lives did not allow men to take note of their shortcomings.

GOD JUST COVERED THEM WITH HIS GOODNESS.

Child of God, divinely determined seasons for one’ success, victory in life, or blessing, are very powerful. They are more powerful than all our enemies put together.

For instance, it was the season for Goliaths demise that gave David victory over him. David sensed that it was time for the giant to go down, that was why he was confident. He went after him with that revelation knowledge. The result was victory and amazing lifting for David.

When you attack your enemies in their divinely determined season of defeat, they will fall like dead men even before you talk to God about them. May God bring you to your divinely determined season for success or victory. The Bible says,

“of the sons of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their command;” (1 Chronicles 12:32 NKJV).

This week we are having our 2024 Sons of Issachar Summit. I hope you will be there.

If you want things to be at your command, understand the divinely determined times and season for doing them before you move to do them. God’s kingdom citizens fail for not knowing this secret.

David was one person in God’s kingdom before the Cross who fought terrible wars without a scar. He fought humans who moved like demons.

He killed a giant as earlier stated. He took over the stronghold of Zion from the Jebusites. He was always found in the forefront of the hottest battles, yet there was no one record of defeat.

What was the secret? He understood his times and season. He knew when to move against the enemy.

At one time the Spirit of the LORD said to him, “Wait until you hear movements on top of the mulberry trees. That will be a sign to you that God has gone ahead of you,” and he waited.

THE LESSON THERE IS, ANY ENEMY YOU MOVE AGAINST WHEN GOD HAS NOT MOVED AGAINST HIM, WILL DESTROY YOU.

You will be fighting the force outside its divinely determined season of defeat. Consequently, you will lack the supernatural supply from God to come out victorious. Spiritual warfare is actually going to pick the spoils of war, after God has finished the battle.

It is people who do not understand this concept that go head long against the enemy, and return with injuries to show, and sometimes to foolishly boast about.

Jesus said we shall tread upon serpent and scorpions and upon all the works of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt us. If they are hurting us, it is not God’s will.

Boasting about what you suffered for going on a spiritual warfare trip is therefore an act of foolishness.

Understanding your divinely determined times and season of victory, is key to dealing with the enemy and unlocking lasting miracles, and covenant blessings upon your life.

I pray that you make this devotional your meditation.

Also, if you live in Nairobi Kenya, or anywhere in the world, you can take a flight and stay in Nairobi this week for an International Conference, SONS OF ISSACHAR 2024 SUMMIT.

However, for those who will not be able to make it down here, it will be streamed LIVE on all our social media platforms. The meetings start on Wednesday 6th March 2024. 5:30pm is the arrival times. The adverts are already running.

LET THIS SCRIPTURE BE AN ADDITIONAL MEDITATION FOR TO DAY;

“To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck what is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones;

A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to gain, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away; a time to tear and a time to sew;

A time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace” Ecclesiastes 3:1-5 NKJV
