We are the army of the Lord, but are we a warrior? Warriors do not need rescuing. They do not avoid tough situations. They see every circumstance as an opportunity to believe the Lord for something. They are privileged to trust, excited at the prospect of moving in faith. Every situation provides them with the… Continue reading Warriors do not look for sympathy; They look for majesty

The battle is not ours to win
Jesus has disarmed both rulers and authorities, making a mockery of their power in the process, and celebrating his own triumph over them by the cross-Colossians 2: 15. The battle is not ours but the Lords-2 chronicles 20: 15. We serve a powerful king who loves to fight! He laughs at those who oppose him… Continue reading The battle is not ours to win
We are defined by the quality of the opposition against us
When we look at a giant, there are mixed messages that we receive. Firstly, the enemy tells us that we are too small and not strong enough, big enough or powerful enough to overcome the opposition in front of us. The purpose of the enemy is to make us feel like grasshoppers in our own… Continue reading We are defined by the quality of the opposition against us

Any sustained move of God calls forth a threefold cord that cannot quickly be broken. These cords woven together include the Power of God, the Character of God and the Wisdom Ways of God. Life on planet Earth offers the most wonderful challenges, inviting us to taste glorious victory as we overcome it with faith… Continue reading The way of the Warrior
An exhortation on worship
This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24, KJV. I find my heart singing, bubbling, looking up to the Lord continually. This is a day for all of us to be especially alerted to encourage one another (I Thessalonians 5:8–11). Too many people are… Continue reading An exhortation on worship
Everything goes better with praise
The Lord is setting before us a way of life. We have been changing constantly, and we have actually come to the place where we are conditioned to change. Before, we changed reluctantly. Even when we were adamant in wanting to change, there were deep, built-in traps in our very nature that were resisting change.… Continue reading Everything goes better with praise
They shall flee before thee seven ways
“The Lord will cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thee: they shall come out against thee one way, and shall flee before thee seven ways.” Deut. 28:7 (ASV) The spirit of the Lord smote the hearts of everyone present with a fresh vision and awareness of the Living Word… Continue reading They shall flee before thee seven ways
Judgment in the fear of the Lord
God started speaking to me as I read, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth, and the earth became a ruin and a desolation” (Genesis 1:1–2). I read just enough to realize that this was not some answer to science’s problem of dinosaurs and everything that took place back in that age.… Continue reading Judgment in the fear of the Lord
No tranquilized volcanoes
Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of… Continue reading No tranquilized volcanoes
Torment or perfect love?
We know that the intensity in spirit with which we pursue everything that God sets before us is not the achievement in itself; but it is a means to reach the goal. We want to win a decisive victory. Soldiers in a battle are not primarily concerned about confronting the enemy and shooting at him.… Continue reading Torment or perfect love?
How do we bind Kings?
How are the New Testament churches to relate to the powers ruling over them? What will happen to these churches in the future—both here in the United States and in foreign countries? Tremendous pressures will be placed upon many of them, especially those in Canada, South America, and South Africa. Who knows what will happen… Continue reading How do we bind Kings?
We bow down to cast down
What do the Lord’s soldiers in the battle need to know? When you are under spiritual assault and conflict, especially on the physical level, you need to know the way to get out from under it. There are aspects of authority presented in the Scriptures that you need to understand. A good illustration is the… Continue reading We bow down to cast down
A hammer and a fire
It is important for you to have the Word of the Lord, so that you can know what you are doing and why you are doing it, as well as God’s ultimate purposes in everything that is taking place. You will stumble if you follow the human level of trying to rationalize situations instead of… Continue reading A hammer and a fire
Plumb perfect
The first few chapters of the book of Amos record prophecies and exhortations that were related to various events. Chapters 7 through 9 describe the many visions that Amos received. Amos was a shepherd, and he also worked with orchards. He himself said that he was not a prophet nor the son of a prophet… Continue reading Plumb perfect
When God walks behind you
In this day we are concerned about two things: first, our escape out of the present world situation into the Kingdom of God, and second, what seems to be a very rapidly developing execution of a satanic plot toward world destruction. The Word reveals what God has to say about these things. Imagine yourself as… Continue reading When God walks behind you
Unto the principalities and powers through the church
What should be our attitude toward Babylon, toward what is happening in the religious world? The crying has to come forth out of this Walk, “Come out of her, My people, be not a partaker of her sins” (Revelation 18:4), because it is absolutely sin. Some people are not yet aware how deadly the battle… Continue reading Unto the principalities and powers through the church
How good it is!
I feel the strength and the unity of the brethren, and I know that this is something so wrought by God that they are indivisible in their dedication to walk in one spirit. It is fantastic. One thing you learn in war is to first gain the area of supremacy, so that as the different… Continue reading How good it is!
Does he care?
At times God does not seem to be concerned for His own Kingdom. Why should we end up destroying ourselves for something that God doesn’t seem to care about? Have you ever felt that way? In Luke 18 is the parable about the unjust judge who did not seem to care, one way or another,… Continue reading Does he care?
Rule in the midst of thine enemies
When I was baptized in the Spirit back in 1985 and spoke with other tongues, I asked the Lord for the interpretation. All that I can remember is that He said, the name of your ministry is glory to God! Ministries. And I have called you to be a General in my ARMY! We’ll that… Continue reading Rule in the midst of thine enemies
Our position and His provision
Each lesson on spiritual warfare is complete in itself, giving you specific basic Scriptural principles which will help you as you lay hold upon them. These messages have this unique quality that they are building upon one another. Satan’s tactics have to be understood. His tactics are to bluff, to roar against you as a… Continue reading Our position and His provision
Aggressively manifesting Christ’s victory in us and through us
As you read this Scripture, let it happen to you. I saw heaven opened; and behold, a white horse, and He who sat upon it is called Faithful and True; and in righteousness He judges and wages war. This is the emphasis in the book of Revelation—He judges and wages war. And His eyes are… Continue reading Aggressively manifesting Christ’s victory in us and through us
It’s is the time!
And there was war in heaven, Michael and his angels waging war with the dragon. And the dragon and his angels waged war, and they were not strong enough (let us establish that point firmly in our minds: they were not strong enough), and there was no longer a place found for them in heaven.… Continue reading It’s is the time!
We have softened the rock
A scriptural study of the judgment of the nephilim and the gods of Egypt helps us to understand the judgment upon the gods of this age. The judgments that happened in Egypt have deep significance today. What God was doing in the first Passover, against all of the gods of Egypt, was one of the… Continue reading We have softened the rock
Submit and reject
In the fourth chapter of James are ten verses which have to do with a part of submission we have never seen. There is a resistance in submission, a resistance that is aggressive and very necessary. Most of us never will know the powerful position we put ourselves in when we become totally and completely… Continue reading Submit and reject
Let Jesus answer the door
Revelation 3:19–22 is part of the message to the seventh church of Asia, the church of Laodicea. “ ‘Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and… Continue reading Let Jesus answer the door
Spiritual warfare
A large proportion of the Bible deals with warfare in the spirit realm. The Apostle Paul said that our battle is not with flesh and blood, but with dark spiritual power Ephesians 6:12. The Bible begins with warfare in paradise and ends with warfare in the book of Revelations. If we are to be successful… Continue reading Spiritual warfare
Quicken the mortal
We are deeper into the days of His Kingdom than even we ourselves realize. The sons of God who have entered into a walk with God have journeyed through the work of the cross and the baptism of fire on their way to the manifestation of authority. They have learned not to stop at merely… Continue reading Quicken the mortal
