"Multiplying by 7s!"

 

"God's Warfare Plan for Believers!"

 

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
1 John 5:3-5
(New International Version)

This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

The Apostle John in this chapter, is writing a Victory speech that proclaims God as Chief Commander in Charge of an army of Spiritual warriors, who must constantly be REJOICING in the Victory of Christ, VICTORIOUS over death, hell and the grave.

The Resurrection of Christ, by Holy Spirit, that same POWER of God that is present in the hearts and manifests HIMself through the actions of Believers in Christ, also bears witness to the world that, FAITH is the arsenal of Spiritual weaponry that is responsible for the daily and ongoing VICTORY in the life of every true believer.

In Ephesians 6:12-18, the Apostle Paul tells Believers of the Spiritual weaponry that is distributed by Holy Spirit in the life of each and every Soldier under the Command of Christ Jesus.

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers, against the authorities,
against the powers of this dark world and
against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God,
so that when the day of evil comes,
you may be able to stand your ground,
and after you have done everything, to stand.
Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist,
with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
and with your feet fitted with the readiness
that comes from the gospel of peace.
In addition to all this,
take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish
all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
Take the helmet of salvation and
the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.
With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints."

The Prophet Isaiah spoke God's WORD about that enemy of God which Believers are active in the ongoing spiritual war against in those heavenly realms,

Isaiah 54:17
"......no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me,"
declares the LORD.

As a Believer in Christ, HIS Spirit is speaking God's WORD of Victory, both of Forgiveness as were the WORDs of Jesus to HIS disciples about forgiving others 70 times 7, those who have offended me, and also of the increasing Advancement of HIS Kingdom of Righteousness against the kingdom of darkness in the year 2007.

Believers in Christ must 'put on' the armor and 'take hold' of these spiritual weapons, taking the battle into the camp of God's enemy, and 'take back' the 'ground'(souls) that have been and are being stolen still to this day.

It is from the ranks of HIS army of Righteous and Faithful, a Battalion of Disciples, those not fearing the loss of their own lives, but proclaiming the 'Liberation of Captives' from the stronghold of the enemy that was torn down by Christ over 2000 years ago, that are shouting,

'Victory belongs to the Lord, Christ Jesus'.

Where as one of HIS Spiritual Warriors, I along with those thousands and even the millions of other valiant warriors, are commanded to be brave and committed to the 'BATTLE PLAN' which is outlined in God's WORD, giving instructions for every Believer in Christ, of HIS Offensive Strategy against the rulers of darkness and every force of evil that attempts to stand in the way of Kingdom Advancement towards those 'Gates of Hell'

Believers, WE are the "DELIVERED' and we must be 'ADVANCING' the Kingdom of Righteousness through our committment to spiritual warfare against that kindom of darkness which presently holds 'Captive', many who are our family, friends and others whom we are also commanded to love!!!

Therefore, it is these Eternal WORDs of Christ which 'STAND' as marching orders,

both for me and every other Believer,
Luke 4:18-19
"The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to release the oppressed,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."

Father, YOU supplied the armor that I need,
in my daily battle with those unseen forces!
My eyes are being opened more and more each day,
to the knowledge of YOUR POWER and MIGHT,
YOUR Spirit within me, that destroys
both the chains of bondage,
and the heavy yoke that has been placed,
upon the hearts of men held captive by sin!!
YOUR Son, Christ Jesus, has paid the ransom
for the souls of those still being held in chains,
and it is YOUR warriors and servants,
NOW, and in this day and hour,
that must Faithfully carry our YOUR Battle Plan!

YOU, O'Lord, are my Commander and King!
May YOUR every servant,
answer YOUR call into spiritual warfare today!!!
Amen!
