2024/2025 OPERATION 18-18 – (COVENANT OF SWEATLESS VICTORIES II)

“The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning thou hast the dew of thy youth. The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath. He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries. He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.”

Psalm 110, KJV

This is a Psalm of strategic divine positioning and this is our year of strategic divine positioning. Whenever you declare this Psalm, you are declaring the position of God for our lives. Our position is in the highest because we are connected to the most high in the name of Jesus Christ. That which is from above is above all, a position of dominion.

The right hand of God is the place of power, the place of dominion. Comprehensive dominion is for those who are sitted in Christ and that is where we are operating from. You must not allow anything to bring you down. You must silence any voice that tells you to step down, that voice is from the pit of hell. We are looking up. The Psalmist says that we will lift up our eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh our help? Our help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth (Psa. 121:1-2).

When the king sent his troops to go and arrest the man of God, Elijah in 1 Kings 1, the captain said, “Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down”. Elijah who was on top of a hill responds, “If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty”. That is the way to operate this year; strategic declarations against any power that tries to mess up with your testimony, you must get angry in spirit. There is no place in the Bible where we are advised to smile at the devil or worship the devil. No! The Bible says, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7).

When satan entered into Peter and wanted to mess up his testimony and derail him, Jesus rebuked the devil. You must never allow the devil to use you. You must not challenge divine authority. Don’t challenge the call of God upon a genuine man of God. Don’t be an instrument in the hand of the enemy. In spite of Peter’s status, he allowed himself to be used. This is a person who saw the revelation of Jesus at a point in time, yet, he allowed the devil to use him. And how did Jesus handle it? Jesus’ response was, “Get thee behind me, Satan” (Matt. 16:23). “Get thee behind me, Satan” (Matt. 16:23).  That is how to handle that kind of situation. May you never be used against a man of God who loves you dearly in the name of Jesus. This is very important so that you don’t position yourself on the judgment side of windows of heaven. What you don’t know is above you, so don’t venture into it. The Bible says, many are called but few are chosen, therefore, don’t get too familiar with any man of God. Those who challenged Moses’ spiritual authority were severely punished (Num. 12 and Num 16).

In this year of strategic divine positioning, you must stretch for God. Be on the Lord’s side, the Lord’s side will always prevail. The blood that speaks for those on the Lord’s side remains the blood of Jesus Christ – the overcoming ministry of the blood of Jesus Christ. That blood is not the blood of a lion; the blood of lion has not redemptive value. It is the blood of the Lamb, and they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony and they loved not their lives unto the dead (Rev. 12:11).
