Yom Re-vi-i, Alul 7, 6002 – August 30, 2017
Using Everything
When we do spiritual warfare, we sometimes focus on a specific aspect. If we do, we may limit our ability to be effective. If we were in a battle physically for our home and family members, trying to keep them alive, I do not believe we would limit ourselves. Likely we would give it all we have. We would go the distance, doing anything and everything to win. It would be good to have that same attitude in spiritual warfare. It really comes down to choosing.
1 Kings 18:21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
The prophet then proceeded to attack the prophets of Baal head on and destroyed all the work of their hands. There was another leader that made an open choice.
Joshua 24:14 Now therefore fear the Lord, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the Lord.
15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
16 And the people answered and said, God forbid that we should forsake the Lord, to serve other gods;
17 For the Lord our God, he it is that brought us up and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and which did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way wherein we went, and among all the people through whom we passed:
18 And the Lord drave out from before us all the people, even the Amorites which dwelt in the land: therefore will we also serve the Lord; for he is our God.
If we give our all, it is enough.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away any and all thoughts or memories of evil done to us or by us. In their place let there be only thoughts and memories of You. Heal our hearts and minds and separate us completely from the evil in the past, as of today. Restore our health and our vision that we might see and hear clearly. Restore all the good material things that have been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. Rise up, my King, and show Yourself strong on our behalf that all men might know that You alone have done this, that You alone are God. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things or You, Father, in Your name, YAH! Amen.
