Ephesians
6:12, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of
this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” We are
not fighting flesh and blood but against spirits and against the very
ruler of the darkness of this world. But there is VICTORY! His name
is Jesus. God will give the victory to those who are willing to go
with Him.
The
Devil is already defeated. When Jesus embraced the role of His
sacrifice, He declared in a deafening shout on the cross at Calvary,
“It is finished.” John 19:30, “When Jesus therefore had
received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head,
and gave up the ghost..” The battle is won because of the power in
the blood of His sacrifice. Enough POWER to march into the enemy's
domain, the places he has imprisoned the souls of the lost, hopeless,
lifeless, bodies of humankind. The power and light of Jesus Christ
will reach into these deep dark crevices of life and set the captive
free.
However,
somebody must deliver the message. Someone has to invade this realm
of darkness in the power of Christ and declare freedom to these
imprisoned souls. My prayer is that God will ignite His Holy Ghost
fire in the Body of Christ, a fresh baptism of fire. Lord send a
fresh wind of Your Pentecostal fire, a raging, consuming fire of God
so that we burn so hot and so bright that the darkness cannot stay
where we go.
There
is coming a time in the future when all creation will bow at the feet
of Christ. All creation will declare true reverence to Him as the
King of Kings and Lord of Lords. But I am convinced that Christ Jesus
wants to use the Body of Christ in this present hour for the
fulfillment of His miraculous power. The signs of God’s miraculous
presence should follow the lives of believers.
Mark
16:17, “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name
shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18They
shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall
not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall
recover.”
John
14:12, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me,
the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these
shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”
I
am convinced that the Lord Jesus wants to use the Body of Christ to
march into Satan's house, the very seat and throne of his rule and
rescue perishing souls. Isaiah 61:1, “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is
upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings
unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to
proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to
them that are bound; 2To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD,
and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
These
are the words that Jesus read in the Temple and declared “...This
day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.” Luke 4:21. That was
the scope of Jesus' ministry as prophesied by Isaiah. That was the
authority of His mantel. He has given that authority to the Church as
He commissioned Her to complete His ministry. He passed His mantel of
authority to His Body. Let us embrace His command and go in the power
and the authority of His Holy Spirit and REAP THIS END TIME HARVEST!
