I was reflecting on these scriptures this morning and the importance of our having a strategic plan ( or battle plan for war) and the power in effectively communicating that plan to our current teams.
The best prepared teams for battle are those who have been trained on the plan before the engaging event. This minimizes the element of surprise for the team and allows for rapid actions for success.
So for today, we are in a battle for the Kingdom and our rapid action for success is found in the Word of the Lord:
“DO NOT let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely on God; believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely also on Me.” John 14:1 AMPC
Because we are seeing the things foretold revealed before our eyes:
“And when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not get alarmed (troubled and frightened); it is necessary [that these things] take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
There will be earthquakes in various places; there will be famines and calamities. This is but the beginning of the intolerable anguish and suffering [only the first of the birth pangs].
And the good news (the Gospel) must first be preached to all nations.”
Mark 13:7-8, 10 AMPC
As leaders, we are not afraid of the fight. We must recognize it for what it is and arm the appropriate weapon to dominate:
⁃ “For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere.” Ephesians 6:12 AMPC
⁃ “men ought always to pray, and not to faint;” Luke 18:1 KJV
Prayer is that weapon!
Lastly, let us “consider well the path of [our] feet, and let all [our] ways be established and ordered aright.
We are the generation for this dispensation in time and we just need to humble ourselves, turn from our wicked ways, pray, and seek Gods face.
When we do this we will see the power of the anointing flow and we will see the healing of our land.
Be Blessed!
Be a Blessing!
“My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to my sayings.
Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart.
For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.
Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life.
Put away from you false and dishonest speech, and willful and contrary talk put far from you.
Let your eyes look right on [with fixed purpose], and let your gaze be straight before you.
Consider well the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established and ordered aright.
Turn not aside to the right hand or to the left; remove your foot from evil.” Proverbs 4:20-27 AMPC
