TAKE IT BACK

PRAYER JOURNAL 5/11/19

Ephesians 1:13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the Word of Truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed you were sealed with the HOLY SPIRIT OF PROMISE.

As Abraham and his descendants were given a promise, we, who have received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, are also CHILDREN OF PROMISE. You, too, have been given territory.

IT IS YOURS AND THE ENEMY CANNOT TAKE IT WITHOUT YOUR COOPERATION!

The Nation of Israel became COMPLACENT within the TERRITORY given to them by God. They were the Children of Abraham…they were the Children of Promise…No other nation could measure up…The Land was theirs…Promised by God…God was all powerful…They could not be conquered…The Nation of Israel lost focus and slowly the enemy began to encroach on the Sacred Territory bestowed upon them by God.

Let your mind go back to when you first believed; those first few days, months, years, when you first received His Spirit…How large was your territory, then? How large is your territory, today? WHAT HAPPENED?

Look at that little “northern” corner. The “Nation of Hurt” has not only breached the boundary they have built houses. What about the “eastern” border? It’s just a tiny “Settlement of Sin;” I can still control the invaders. When did the “south” get so far “north?” I use to have much more territory there. How did the “Community of Busyness” become such a powerful stronghold in my territory? And finally, my entire Western Border has become a “Monument to Self,” built by my own ego and pride.

It is time to TAKE BACK YOUR TERRITORY! It won’t be easy; there are invaders to drive out…the “Nation of Hurt” can only be driven back through forgiveness…the “Citizens of Sin” must be UTTERLY DESTROYED…the “Community of Busyness” must be reorganized and refocused and the “Monument to Self” must be torn down and replaced with humility and surrender.
It certainly won’t be easy but GOD GAVE YOU THIS TERRITORY...

IT IS YOURS…TAKE IT BACK!
