POSITIONED TO WAR - Part II, Episode 5
When you go to war, you must go with Jesus, the Captain of the Host.
We talk about getting strategies and instructions before entering the battlefield. Then, we war in the position to take back stolen land or land where the enemy illegally encroached.
In the book of Joshua, Joshua received instructions to follow - unambiguous instructions.
Like Joshua, God is calling His people to:
- Displace the systems of the world.
- Destroy idols and destroy altars
David won battle after battle under King Saul as Captain of his Army. We will begin to see victory after victory as we position ourselves to war.
Principles to follow when positioned to war:
- Get in God's presence by consecration, repentance, humility, and obedience.
Now you have His seal to go forward. You have His help and His authority.
Remember (2 Corin 10:4 )For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal (earthly)but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds.
We are in a spiritual war.
We don't fight in the natural.
- Get the instructions and directions.
God gave Joshua clear instructions.
- Follow the instructions without deviation.
4. Don't battle alone. Go with a battle partner.
It would help if you had someone at your back.
David had his mighty men when Saul hunted him down to kill him.
The enemy will send a Saul, but like David, you will win battle after battle.
David was anointed as King, although Saul held the position of King. But Saul was rejected by God.
So if you have a superior who does not acknowledge your gifts or work ethics, perhaps they see, as Saul recognized in David, you carry the anointing to replace him.
I want to encourage you as you begin to see the Sauls come against you.
Be wise. As David honored the anointing of Saul, so should you observe the authority of your superiors.
But be encouraged. As it was in David's day, Saul died in the battle. So David held his rightful position as King in due time.
So displace the systems of this world with authority until it becomes the systems of our God.
I have a special guest who will join me next week as we continue discussing positions to war in the workplace. She is a woman who knows her authority, and we will discuss some battles won as well as some lost. Don't miss it. It'll bless you. Until then, be encouraged, be confident, and be blessed.
Scripture References:
1 Corinthians 10:26 For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.
2 Corinthians 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
Joshua 1:1-6 Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying, Moses, my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
