greetings everyone I feel I have a very important message for the body of Christ when I received
this I feel it was personal but it was also a corporate word and I think you will agree
you know the Lord speaks to us in many different ways and as I kind of uncovered this dream this
experience uh you'll kind of understand what I'm talking about I feel that I had a vision
within a dream now in this first the Lord asked me what do you see and you know I felt like he
said to Jeremiah what do you see you see he was looking over his word to perform it but
he asked Jeremiah what do you see so in this experience he said to me what do you see well
as he said that I looked and what I saw was a beautiful male lion walking through the household
examining everything in his sight okay now it was beautiful so you know my mind wants to go
to the lion of the tribe of Judah however this is what I heard the enemy is looking over all that
you have to see what he can take next then came a knowing we must watch and pray to keep him at Bay
you see the enemy does that he comes to gain access that was the understanding I
got he he comes to gain access through the loss of a family member through sadness
Etc then he looked over all the possessions and roared like a lion to create fear
so the message was we must watch and pray now uh First Peter 1 the first Peter 5 verse 8 says that
the enemy The Devil roams around like a roaring lion with Fierce hunger seeking someone to seize
upon and who he can devour that's what the enemy was doing this lion was not the lion of Judah this
was the enemy and you know he was quite beautiful and Satan is isn't he but we must remember this
we must be well balanced temperate sober of Mind Vigilant and cautious at all times
this is First Peter 5 8 the first part of it we need to cast all of our anxieties and our worries
upon him okay then uh you know we are putting everything we're trusting in the Lord and not
giving the enemy access to our life you know I saw he was taking everything a little bit at a
time not everything all at once it wasn't like job where he basically lost everything within a matter
of you know very short period of time you know sounds like it was a matter of minutes or hours
that he lost everything but that wasn't it so you know what where do we give him access what was he
taking you know this could be what I heard here was that was through death but what is that is
it a natural death is it a death of a marriage a relationship a job a promotion could it be through
the natural loss of a child perhaps a pregnancy could be a death to our finances it's something
where there's been a real uh discouragement a defeat that's come that's brought with it you
know anxiety depression fear grief disappointment you know any ungodly thoughts that's gives the
enemy access and we begin agreeing you know when we start down that bunny trail you know he gets
right in there in in promises I'm always talking about that he prompts our thoughts so we don't
want to agree with him he comes in if we if we have access and I'll say an access point to me
was when in Bob's death okay that was an access point for me did I agree with the Enemy then
he's always trying to bring us to the place that we think that we're worthless we can't
do anything God hasn't forgiven us uh you know you're never going to amount to anything you
know are we going to agree with him or am I going to rise up and say no I am more than a conqueror
you know Christ defeated everything at the cross you know and I am going to uh rise up and stand
on the solid rock of Jesus Christ and know that he has the enemy is a defeated foe he is crushed
under my feet okay so you know we need to take an aggressive stand against the spoken word we
oftentimes you know when we come into agreement with the Enemy you know it's it starts here in
our thoughts and then we allow the words to come out and that's where the enemy he gets access then
and he uses our words against us you know if you say okay maybe you've lost your job you know a lot
of people lost a lot of things during covid and and these things were real however you know when
we come into the agreement with the Enemy I mean he has a real Heyday when we we have it here and
then we internalize it and then we start spewing it out of our mouth okay that gives the enemy
power okay because he has no power but what we give him through the words that we speak
so now the other thing here um the Lord said you know he is watching over our words to perform it
that's the thing he's watching over we must watch and pray the Lord told his disciples that night in
Gethsemane he said Watch and Pray okay that's something we need to be doing watching over
the word you know like Jeremiah what do you see what is the word the Lord has given you
what has he given you are you watching over that word so he performs that word through you
okay you know we can let doubt and fear come into us then we're on the side of the enemy or we can
rise up and say no you know get behind me Satan right but the enemy has stole scripture says he
has to give it back to us seven times all right so what is the word the Lord has given you watch
over that word and if you have given the enemy access in your life okay you go back and and
you know think about what the Lord has promised you make sure that you heard from the Lord what
has he said to you what promises has he given you has he validated that word you know he's
watching over that word to perform it and um if you have given the enemy access you
know if you've spoken out about yourself about your situation in a negative way repent of that
seriously repent of it and you know the enemy has to give back Sevenfold what he has
stolen from us you know we don't want to walk around in doubt and fear doubt you do without
okay we want the faith of God and to walk in his righteousness okay you know uh let's see Ephesians
6 talks about our armor and if we have one of the pieces of armor is our Shield of faith
and I believe God is trying to get us to hold that Shield up close to us okay and walk forward with
that so that the enemy cannot penetrate our heart with uh his fiery darts okay we need the faith of
God we need to rise up in that and be steadfast with him okay all right till next time be blessed
