Charge
Prayer is very vital to us as Christians. If all we have heard does not cause us to engage in the spirit through prayer, it is a sign that we have not truly heard the message.
The place of prayer cannot be overemphasized and if we will make good warfare in the spirit, a sense of warring must be awoken in us at this time. The evil one is out there to stop our progress, thus, we must be deliberate and decisive for entrance in our walk with God.
We have been hearing the message of Everlasting Life, but this is the time to engage the message. Our soul profits from the Word when we engage with the message we are hearing.
Revelation is an equipping for us to stand (contend) in the spirit. In the spirit, standing is synonymous with waging wars as soldiers have the ability to stand for a long time which civilians don’t have. You need strength in your inner man to take a stand in the spirit (Eph. 3:16, 6:13-14)
The giants that our parents could not conquer must be conquered by us. Hence, we can no longer hide from our giants (spirits) but face them for He that is greater than giants is for us. (Rom. 8:31, 37)
We must take a stand in the spirit based on how much we have been raised. The devil does not like men who take a stand but we have been commanded to do all to stand, even in the evil day. The evil day is upon all the nations of the earth but some will be found asleep while some will be fighting to take their stand in Truth. (Eph. 6:13-14)
Hell and its gates cannot prevail against the church that Jesus is building. But the lack of the raising/building up of the church will always make them victims of hell and death, even if they do other spectacular things/works. (Matt. 16:18)
Paul was the first pattern given to us to believe unto Life Everlasting: If we follow Paul, we would connect to Everlasting Life for he was raised as a pattern having followed every step of Christ’s revelation. (1 Tim. 1:16)
We should not just desire to be like Jesus who knew no sin, but should also desire to be like Paul in the spirit for he is the first pattern that Jesus raised and aided among sinful men by His revelation. (Rom. 8:3, 2 Cor. 5:21, 1 Tim. 1:15)
Apostle Paul did not start preaching immediately after his conversion; God hid him first to reveal the message of Christ in his life. (Gal. 1:15-16)
God ensured that our Lord Jesus went through His growth process rawly and thoroughly while on earth to ensure that He went back to God. The reason why God takes us through a thorough process in our walk with Him is so that we can be a pattern for others to follow.
Jesus captured all of the dominions of the heavens and earth in Himself, and He was the exact dominion that God was waiting for. Christ, the Son of the Living God is the one who captures the true entity in all the realm of dominions.
All the beings in the spirit world (the realm of dominion, principalities and powers, etc) are the things God refers to as creation because they are the things that have to do with dominion, thrones and God’s kingdom. (Ps. 103:19-23, Col. 1:16)
Things on Earth are subversive to man’s kingdom: the Earth is under the dominion of man and is meant to answer to man but if we mismanage/abuse them the adverse effect will be on us. (Ps.115:Rom. 8:23)
The groaning of creation is a cry for men after the order of the Son to appear on the earth. Principalities and powers are higher than man; they are the previous dominion that God used and is still using. However, they are not God’s actual dominion in His heart. (Rom. 8:22-23)
Principalities and powers are afraid of Satan’s dominion (kingdom of hell) and they are very careful of him so as not to be stained. He (Satan) can spot men even in the feast of charity, which is why we all need to keep ourselves so as not to be corrupted. (Jude 1:12, 21)
