Uproot It

Monday 11 June
READ: Matthew 13:24-30
MORE LESSON: I Samuel 17:40-50

Jesus said that there are things which are done by the enemy and there are those done by God. There is nothing on the face of the earth that happens by accident; somebody or something is responsible. Even trees don't grow on their own; someone dropped the seed that eventually grew into the mature tree. Somehow, something is still responsible; no plant is responsible for planting itself. This is the reason why when things go wrong, we must not keep quiet about them or think they happened because they were bound to happen. You must understand that as God's thoughts for you are of good, the devil also has evil plans against your life. It is now left for you to discern who is responsible for what is happening to you and address it accordingly.
Jesus said, ...Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up: Matt 15:13. There are trees in your life which the Father did not plant, whether you are a believer or not; and Jesus said they should be uprooted. Enough of theology to find out why they were planted; uproot them instead of just sitting down and talking. In those days when we conducted deliverance, we would sit and talk to demons; asking, ‘What is your name? Where do you come from?’ You don't need all that, just cast out the demon.
You've had a lot of analysis this year already. Only two questions need your analysis now: Is this situation planted by God? What does God say concerning this situation? Then when you find out the answers, take action. When you are confronted with a situation, ask yourself, “Is this barrenness from the Lord? Is this failure from the Lord? Is this financial crisis from the Lord?” Of course the Lord cannot allow it, so find out what the Lord has said concerning it. For instance, you could be a man who has no respect for giving to the Lord; you don't pay tithe, and you don't pay first fruit. You can argue about first fruit on monthly salary, but you sure can't argue with the devourer. Concerning your finance, God says; Give, and it shall be given unto you...: Luke 6:38. Also, Malachi 3:10 says, Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house....
When you have found out what God has said concerning your situation then you must take action; uproot the wrong plantings. Some can be uprooted by speaking the authoritative Word of God, some by joining hands in cooperate prayers, and others by correcting wrong mentality and unrighteous living. Whatever the case is, uproot the trees that my Father has not planted using the name of Jesus.

Prayer/Action
* Uproot every tree that God has not planted in your life.
* Pray that by mercy every evil thing planted in your life because of sin and carelessness, be uprooted and burnt by fire.
* Declare that your land will begin to yield great harvest in place of the enemy’s planting.

TODAY’S PROPHETIC PRAYER: In the name of Jesus, I refuse the spirit of the tail, servitude, slavery and spiritual darkness.
