We can call down fire from above to consume all our enemies in human flesh and blood, but the greatest man or woman is one who behaves like Jesus-Christ able to forgive those who have deeply offended you.
Ephesians 6-12 from the Christian bible states: "Remember we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places and powers in high places". NLT version states we are not fighting against people made of flesh and blood, but against the evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against those mighty powers of darkness who rule this world, and against wicked spirits in the heavenly realms.
When you understand the above scripture it makes no sense to hate your mother, sister or brother for trying to destroy you or making successive failed attempts from preventing you from fulfilling your destiny. You deal with those powers behind them and arresting those powers in the spiritual realm. You understand the mandatory command: Honour your father and mother so that your days will be long. This still applies regardless of the negative circumstances even though your parents or siblings might have crocodile scales in the spiritual realm or move into animals to attack you in the spiritual realm.
I remember praying for a girl in Church with other prayer warriors. The prayer got quite intense and she stood with a good posture. Then suddenly something prompted me I stretched out the palm of my five fingers facing upwards and the whole length of my hands came out fiercely from a far distance towards her instantly, and she fell. I did not touch her or push her with my physical hands, but she staggered instantly and fell. Do you now understand that powers had caged her, and there was a release, not by mere physical fight with her flesh? I went home and pondered could my hand be a hand of fire, but not necessary physical fire that can be seen with the naked eyes, but spiritual power and authority. We need to understand things of the spiritual and work less with our flesh. Then the almighty God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel will move mightily on our behalf.
Let me give another clear illustration from the bible. A prophet of God from Judah following a command of Yahweh had arrived at Bethel while Jeroboam the king of Israel was standing and burning incense. The prophet of God shouted , cursing the altar, 'O altar of, altar , thus says Yahweh: There shall be born to the family of David a son by name of Josiah. He shall sacrifice on you the priests of the high places who burn incense on you; and human bones shall be burned on you. The prophet of God also gave a sign as a proof the message was from God. 'The altar shall shall be torn down and the ashes on it shall be scattered.'
When king Jeroboam heard him cursing the altar of Bethel and also indirectly telling him Josiah would succeed the throne. He stretched out his hand from the altar and said, 'arrest him!'. Immediately the hand which King Jeroboam pointed out against the man dried up and he could not draw it back. The altar itself crumbled and the ashes on it were scattered, according to the sign that had been given. Immediately the king said to the man of God, 'entreat the favour of Yahweh your God and pray for me so that my hand be restored.' The man of God entreated Yahweh and the king's hand was restored as it had been.
The prophet of God with the spirit of forgiveness simply said a short prayer. He had the authority to bind powers, principalities, wicked spirits on earth and heaven would respond accordingly. Likewise he had the same authority to loose any power, principalities on earth and heaven would respond accordingly.
I want you to say this prayer for those seeking more spiritual power and authority. You must repent of all sin before you say the prayer point below.
1. Father in the name of Jesus-Christ assist me to be totally broken in the area concerning human flesh and blood. Help me soar up with wings as an eagle in the spiritual realm and let their be instant manifestation of your power through me when I need to act as you have commanded me. Amen
2. Lord Jesus empower me so that whatever I bind here on Earth would be bound in heaven and whatever I loose on earth is loosed in heaven in Jesus mighty name. Amen
3. Heavenly father, may I not be carried away boasting that demons, principalities, powers and wicked spirits are subject to me, but let my name be written in the book of life. Amen.
I love you all and look forward to starting 2013 with you all with renewed hope, love, joy and on a bigger platform. Amen.
