Reading: 2 Corinthians 9 and Deuteronomy 11-13
Scripture: Deuteronomy 12:2, “You shall surely destroy all the places where the nations whom you shall dispossess served their gods, on the high mountains and on the hills and under every green tree.”
Observation: This morning one of the scariest things ever happened. This morning as I was trying to journal and prepare from our last day at the retreat when one of our leadership came across one of the men that came who was demonized or possessed. As a few of us contended and were trying to lay hands on him to cast out the demon for this man, he fled us. Many of us are still contending for this man and his release from the hold that the evil one has on him.
Application: We are to tear down all the places where there are idles and destroy all idles. Jesus gave us his authority to cast out and heal. To tear down the strongholds the devil had gotten his finger into. Just as Israel was charged with dispossessing everyone our of their promised land we are to dispossess any place or person the evil one is crawling into. We have been given the power and authority in Christ’s name.
Prayer: Father, I thank you for the strength and courage too stand up to the evil one this morning, without you on our side and reminding us that this war was already be won by you it would have been easy to walk away. I thank you for your provisions and the great teachings that you gave us over this weekend. I pray for this man who is under such attacks that he sees men of God as enemies. I also want to lift up anyone who is battling in the spiritual realm give them the eyes to see the ears to hear and the courage to stand because we have the armor of God and his authority to crush the enemy
