The hand of God will ensure that we are above only and never beneath. When the hand of God is lifting you, no power can stop you. When the hand of God is lifting you, the sky will not be your limit, the sky is your starting point because God lives in the heaven of heavens and that is where we are supposed to be seated. It starts with your mind. You need to retrain your mind to think above only. Don’t allow the lower things that people are holding onto to hold you down. Anyone who wants to operate in the highest must learn to connect to the most high.
The extent to which you are willing and obedient, to that extent you will eat the good of the land. Christianity without responsibility is not Christianity at all. No one who is not disciplined can be a disciple of Christ. Such people fail to take on the cross and that is part of the reason why a lot of issues linger. A lot of issues linger because of internal forces caused by toxic spiritual attitudes. You need to clean up. I have been in the business of praying for people with stubborn challenges and I have seen a lot of cases.
The first thing that a person who wants to be delivered should have is humility. You must humble yourself. Without humility there cannot be divine intervention. God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble.
The second is truth in the inward part. Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. God desires truth in the inward parts (Psa. 51:6). If you don’t have it, the next step is impossible.
The third is repentance. Without truth, there cannot be repentance and without repentance, your prayer will not fly (Psa. 66:18).
The next one is renunciation. Without true repentance, you cannot renounce. Renunciation involves burning the bridge. A lot of people are not ready to burn the bridge; they still want to keep the relics. As long as the relics are there, the presence of demons will be there because demons are not only obstinate, they are legalistic. They know their rights. However, with the word of God, you can cast them out (Isa. 49:24-26).
The fifth is forgiveness. Don’t get into the routine of prayer while still holding someone in unforgiveness, it will not fly. Power of God potentially is infinity raised to power infinity over zero. But you can reduce it to zero (Isa. 59:1-3). You can cut short the hand of God. Don’t embark on any spiritual exercise (fasting) with bitterness in your heart. If you do, you are just embarking on hunger strike. Clean up! Align with the purposive will of God. It is only those who are complete in obedience and willing that will eat the good of the land. Willingness is submission to the will of God. Many people today desire to eat the good of the land but are not ready to be obedient.
The next step is Prayer. A lot of people avoid the other steps and jump into prayer. Some even avoid prayer and jump into warfare.
The seventh step is warfare.
The last step is restoration. If you resist the devil after you have fulfilled these steps you will have victories. Every step takes you to the point where before you even issue the command, the demons will leave. Your prayers will fly. May the Lord help us to put these keys to use in the mighty name of Jesus. As you do, every stubborn challenge will dissolve and disappear.
