Do you know the thing that you need most right now?
The Lord’s FAVOR!
Yes, you need to the Lord’s favor to protect you spiritually and physically, but especially spiritually in this day and age.
How do you gain the Lord’s favor?
I will answer with a question: When you are in love with someone, how do gain their favor or their attention?
Simple: You spend time with them! You get to know them, what they like and what they don’t like. You become intimately familiar with the one you love.
In the same way, to gain the Lord’s favor, you need to SPEND TIME WITH HIM in prayer and reading His word in the Bible.
By reading the Bible, you come to know the Lord, His character, what He likes and what He does not like. The more you spend time with Him and the more you read His word, you become intimately familiar with Him.
Once you become familiar with the Lord, you will realize the critical importance of spiritual warfare in your life. There is definitely an enemy that does not want you to know the Lord or spend time with Him and this vicious enemy of souls will find any way he can to distract you.
This is why spiritual warfare is absolutely necessary.
So it is a must to engage in spiritual warfare not just once a week, but EVERY DAY and even multiple times a day!
One way you can do this is to pray every three hours: 9am, 12noon, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm. Set an alarm to remind you. Take just 5 minutes, yes take just five minutes and PRAY every 3 hours!
Pray prayers that are specifically targeted to rout demonic forces and cast them away from you and your loved ones. When you are finished, ask the Holy Spirit how to be more effective in the work for the Kingdom of Heaven. Maybe you can let go of a bad habit or maybe you can do more charity or maybe you can fast more often… there are many things we can do to be more effective spiritual warriors!
The battle in the unseen world is more intense now than ever, and it will continue to get more and more intense. Why? Because the evil one knows that his time is almost up. Soon the King of Glory, Jesus, Yeshua Hamashiach will come and do away will all sin and wickedness and establish His Kingdom.
This is all the more reason for you and your family to engage in spiritual warfare EVERY DAY!
How do you do this?
First, you need to ask the Holy Spirit for guidance.
Next, take a look at the following posts which contain words of guidance as well as powerful prayers:
The world needs spiritual warriors NOW more than ever!
Time is short. The enemy rages against humanity. Put on your armor and keep it on! Repent of your evil ways and walk in a life of holiness and righteousness.
This word from the Lord confirms this:
THE SPIRITUAL FIGHT IS CONTINUOUS, EVEN IF THEY DO NOT SEE IT WITH THEIR PHYSICAL EYES. GET UP IN THE MORNING TO WIELD THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT AND DESTROY EVERY WORK AND EVERY PLAN OF THE ENEMY AGAINST YOU, YOUR FAMILIES, YOUR CITY, YOUR COUNTRY. Read more here.
Here is another word from the Lord:
Prayer circumvents certain catastrophes that are slated to happen. Your prayer helps in minimizing and changing your surroundings and without prayer bad things just happen.
All prayers make it to heaven and make a difference in outcomes. Pray for your Salvation. Pray for any sins that still must be eradicated and totally stopped. I can help. Get on your knees and talk with Me daily. I love when you spend time with Me. Read more here.
Jesus gives us the victory so nothing can stand in our way, but we must be FAITHFUL and PERSEVERE!
So start today!
Show the Lord that you truly love Him by fighting the good fight of faith!
Shalom.
