Yom R’vi’i, Sivan 7, 6003 – May 23, 2018

Fighting The Defeated

It can be difficult to fully understand the the idea of spiritual warfare. It comes to us from at least two scriptures. One is Paul’s letter to the Corinthians.

2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

And Paul also gave us some details in Ephesians.

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.

For this we know from these scriptures, we are well equipped for the battle. At the same time, the interesting part is the enemy was already defeated.

Colossians 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

So we see that the curse(s) in the Law were defeated at the cross of our Messiah, giving us the power to live rightly even in our hearts and minds.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here in the hearts and minds of mankind. Let Your will be done here as it is in heaven where all things sing praises to You. Send us now Your overwhelming provision that it might overflow to those around us. Deliver us from the evil here. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away all thoughts and memories of the evil done to us or by us. In their place let there be only thoughts and memories of You. We need Your love between us, and Your heart and mind. We bless the spirit man in each believer that we might all see clearly to be like You. Send in quickly the $423,923,962.53 that we might use it to spread the gospel of God. Restore unot Your people seventy times seven fold all that has been taken or held back in any way from Your people, and the more besides. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things of You, Father, in Your name YAH. We ask all these things in the name of YAH Yeshuah. Amen.
