DIVINE KNOWLEDGE AS A
WEAPON
Memorise: Surely the Lord GOD
will do nothing; but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
Amos 3:7
Read: 2nd Kings
6:8-13, (KJV)
8 Then the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took
counsel with his servants, saying, In such and such a place shall be my camp.
9 And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying,
Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
10 And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of
God told him and warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.
11 Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore
troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will
ye not shew me which of us is for the king of Israel?
12 And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but
Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words
that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.
13 And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and
fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.
Bible in one year: Isaiah
63:15-66:24, Psalms 43
MESSAGE
There
is power in the glorious presence of God where many wonderful things take
place, including having access to great revelations and instructions which
makes living pleasant. God is supreme and He is the power behind all that
happens in the deep and secret places. God will not do anything without
informing His prophets. The prophet of God is a messenger of the Most-High God.
From the passage for today, we can see that over and over again, the Syrian
aggression against the children of Israel kept leading to the defeat of the
Syrian army. It reoccurred to a point in which the King of Syria knew there was
a problem somewhere, he came to the conclusion that there must be a traitor
somewhere who was revealing all their military tactics to the Israelites. In
the long run, they discovered that there was an unseen prophet in the
background who was counselling the King of Israel from time to time about the
plots of the Syrian army. I decree into your life; all the weapons of the enemy
against you shall be exposed in Jesus’ name. There is nothing as great as
hearing from God because it helps you avoid many great mistakes in life, and
helps you to do great things for God in life. When you are in partnership with
God, He will always speak to you concerning things to come before they
eventually happen. You will have access to certain classified information and
this will help you to maintain your stand against all odds. Knowledge is an
important tool and is key to the life of a believer. This is what separated
Daniel in the kingdom of Babylon and he became a reference point for different
kings in different situations. Daniel had access to vital information which
separated him from the crowd. Open Heavens 27 August 2016:- Divine Knowledge as
a Weapon
When
you have access to the knowledge of God, nothing will trouble you because you
are aware of those things before hand. Understanding gives you the privilege to
know the mind of God. When you don’t have access to divine knowledge, it can
lead to a lot of suffering and hardship. If you want to have access to this
divine knowledge, you must purpose in your heart not to defile yourself with
the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye and the pride of life. Those that
will have access to information from God will be people who understand the
heartbeat of God. 27 August 2016 open heavens
There
is a God in Heaven that reveals to His children vital information from time to
time, I always tell my children that if they have enough of God’s presence in
their lives, demons will have no power over them, because the activities of the
demons will be revealed and destroyed before they are even executed. Right from
my early years as General Overseer, I had learnt the secret of victory by spending
time in the presence of God, and each time I am in His presence, He reveals
deep things to me about different situations of life. I want to implore you to
decide to spend enough time in His presence, and you will see the devil fleeing
from your life. In His presence there is full disclosure of all the activities
of the devil so that you live your life in constant victory.
Prayer Point
Father, remove everything
hindering me from hearing from You.
