Disengaging the Enemy

Text: Matt 17: 14-21

Bible Reading in One Year: Jeremiah 37-40

Today, I want to give you some weapons for disengaging the enemy and enforcing victory in any situation. Prayer is a weapon of mass destruction on the camp of the enemy. By prayer you can change night to day. When everything has failed, prayer will get the job done. Although Jesus is God, He always took time to pray while on earth and each time He stepped out of the place of prayer, something happened.

When you add fasting to prayers, then things begin to happen at a high level. There are certain spiritual matters concerning you which won't get anywhere with until you have engaged the power of fasting; this is a tested fact. No wonder Jesus started ministry only after 40 days of fasting and prayer.

Another weapon is speaking in tongues. It is a powerful tool for disengaging the enemy. Many people think speaking in tongues is a religious act to be done only in church or when believers are gathered around them. No, praying in the Holy Ghost is a weapon anywhere, anytime. When you pray in the Holy Ghost, fire is emitted out of you and that gets the whole kingdom of darkness confused.
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Matt 3:11.

The devil does not understand tongues because it is a direct interaction between you and God. When you engage in speaking in tongues, you are not in charge anymore, the Spirit begins to instruct you on what has to be done about the situation. When matters are confusing and there seems to be no direction anymore, just go ahead and pray in the Holy Ghost.

I was in a meeting where after we had prayed, sang and done everything, it looked as if the heavens were closed with brass. You could feel in the atmosphere that the presence of God was absent. When I was called up, I said, 'Lord, what do we do now? By inspiration, I said, 'Every one begin to pray in the Holy Ghost and if you can't speak in tongues just shout, ''The Blood of Jesus''.

By the time we entered into that dimension of praying in tongues, two young ladies fell on the ground, rolling and shouting that they entered a blood covenant to disrupt our meeting just before coming. I have heard several more experiences of such divine interventions while speaking in tongues.

Next time when all things seem hopeless and confusing, just open your mouth and pray in the Holy Ghost. It is not just ordinary speaking, it is fire! In fact, I recommend that you spend a minimum of one hour everyday just speaking in tongues start today.

Prayer / Action
* Ask God to baptise you afresh with the Holy Ghost.
* Ask God to rekindle His Spirit upon you in a double fold.
* Command every enemy's position in your life to be terminated today by the fire of the Holy Ghost..
