Uproot that Evil Tree

Saturday 26 September
READ: Matt. 15:10-14
MORE LESSON: Num. 33:52-56

It is very easy to interprete verse 13 of the Scripture reading on the surface. But you don't interprete scriptures only by the understanding that you have. You could also look for a little theological explanation of the scripture. For example, the theological application revolves around Jesus teaching about the Pharisees that the doctrines they had been teaching were not acceptable to God and therefore in a very short while, God would put an end to those doctrines; that is primarily what that scripture is talking about.

The application of that scripture is that an ungodly and unscriptural doctrine is not the only thing that Jesus wants to put an end to. He wants to put an end to anything that is not acceptable to God; anything that has no foundation in God has no reason to stand. So, apply this to your life. Jesus says, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up: Matt.15:13. That tree must be uprooted because it was not planted by the Father. You can apply that to your life; what are the things that are happening in your life that are not from God? If your life belongs to God, whatever happens to it must get the consent and approval of God.

The scripture becomes relevant when applied to your life, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted. . .. Why is it that only the trees that the Father plants are the ones which must survive? Can't anyone else plant? Must it be the Father alone that plants in your life? Only the Father can plant because the Certificate of Occupancy of the land belongs to the Father as the Bible says, The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof: Psa. 24:1. The whole earth belongs to God, which means only God has the final authority to give Certificate of Occupancy for any land, because He created it. If God owns it, the devil should not use it.

By faith start your day by prophesying against every tree that the Father has not planted. That is how to make sure that every tree that the Lord has not planted is uprooted, And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith: Mk.11:22-23.

Prayer/Action
* Ask the Lord to empower you over every tree not planted by Him in your life.
* Use the name, the blood and the Spirit of God in you to uproot every demonic planting in your life.
* Declare that your life will no longer be a fertile ground for satanic seeds, in Jesus’ name.

PROPHETIC PRAYER
As a prince with God I shall prevail with God and man, in the name of Jesus.
