Memory Verse:
“And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force” ( Matthew 11:12).
Dearly Beloved
One of the biggest problems we have in the church today is the lack of the fire component of the Holy Spirit baptism. The cold and lukewarm nature of the church today has enabled evil to thrive within the body of Christ. It has enabled demons, witches, wizards and agents of darkness to feel comfortable and to ‘enjoy’ fellowship with true children of God.
John the Baptist, who heralded Jesus, declared: “I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire” (Math 3:11).
Have you received the Holy Spirit? Then, war a good warfare with your mouth. Apostle Paul charged his spiritual son:
“This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare” (1Timothy 1:18).
Though God knows our heart desire but God expects us to be specific, persistent, aggressive and spiritually violent when dealing with life issues.
Once you have received the Holy Spirit, your words become creative. The words from your mouth are very important. You speak what you want into being in Christ Jesus. The Holy Spirit of God inside of you “calleth those things which be not as though they were” ( Romans 4:17). Henceforth, say no to passive Christianity. Engage your mouth well. Use your mouth powerfully and fruitfully daily.
The book of revelations tells us that Jesus Himself released sharp sword with his mouth to plant and to uproot:
“And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God” ( Revelations 19:15).
Please, pray for the fire component of the Holy Spirit baptism with humility. Jesus Christ is the only one that can baptise you with the Holy Spirit.
Please, be spiritually aggressive and violent daily. Jesus has given us a “mouth and wisdom” ( Luke 21:15), make good use of it.
To grow spiritually requires daily meditation with the word of God (Joshua 1:8) and seeking first the kingdom of God and its righteousness (Matthew 6:33). However, the first thing you must desire greatly is total spiritual freedom through the truth in the word of God ( John 8:32).
Stay connected to JESUS, also called the Word . Be enlightened.
Have a blessed new day.
Keep your thoughts & mind positive.
Have a forgiving spirit. Do no think evil against anyone.
Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit.
Be compassionate and kind to one another.
Prayer Point:
There is someone reading this message, receive the grace of spiritual aggression and violence in Jesus mighty name. Amen
Blood of Jesus! Blood of Jesus!
Thank you Jesus for life and for teaching me spiritual aggression.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
