Tell
the enemy that he have to let go! There
are so many Christians that are not living to the fullest of what
Jesus has for us! We are bound. We are bound by different things.
Activities, religion, good deeds, our own self and many other things.
But there is a stronghold that is very real today that are keeping
believers in bondage. Yes, believers. The church is weak and
unprepared for battle, there is no knowledge in the word and the
enemy is winning. In
April this year I dreamt that I had a dream that showed there was a
scripture in Exodus missing, but that it will be revealed soon. In
the dream there was a man that spoke to me, and he said that there
is a piece of scripture missing in Exodus without him knowing about
what I dreamt about. And so I praised God for revealing this to him.
There was a tree nearby, and all of a sudden there was a black
figure revealed in the crown of that tree. This figure had a black
cloak over him that also covered his face. But as I started to
worship the Lord, he came flying towards me very quickly. And as he
came towards me his face was revealed. A bald-headed white face was
revealed with white eyes. He looked like death. I got scared as he
came closer but I rebuked it, but he didn’t turn away. At the same
time this happened I woke up and heard myself saying; “the blood
of Jesus”. The dream was very real and it shook me, then I knew
that there was something God wanted to tell me. I
believe it is time for this hidden passage of Exodus to be revealed. I
started to study Exodus and read the story were God said to Moses to
go back to the King of Egypt and tell him to “let My people go”.
Exodus
3:7-12says:
7
And the Lord said: “I have surely seen the oppression of My
people who are in Egypt, and have
heard their cry, because of their taskmasters, for I know their
sorrows. 8
So I have come down to deliver
them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from
that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and
honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the
Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites. 9
Now therefore, behold, the cry of
the children of Israel has come to me, and I have also seen the
oppression of with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10
Come now, therefore, and I will
send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of
Israel, out of Egypt. 11
But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that
I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?” 12
So He said, “I will certainly be with you. And this shall be your sign
to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of
Egypt, you shall serve (worship,
NIV) God on this mountain.” “The
children of Israel” have a double meaning here. As well as it
means the Jews, it is also for us that believe in Jesus as our
saviour, we are His children; Gods people. So this passage is for
the bride; the church, the believer. The
Lord is saying to His church: “I
have heard your prayers and your struggles, and I know the pain and
suffering you have been through. But I have come through my son
Jesus so that you can be free from the ones who hold you captive. I
have a life in abundance for you. I have seen the stronghold that
keeps you from serving me.” Why
does He want us to be free? So we can worship, serve Him and make a
sacrifice to the Lord. Exodus
5:1. But the stronghold is, yes; strong. And it will not just
let go like that. But God has put something in your hand…... Exodus
4:2 There
are many Christians, believers, which are not in their rightful
place, that are not in service to the Lord, that are not free to
serve or worship him as they should. They need to be free in order
to be able to serve the Lord as they should. Apathy and pride is
holding a lot of them bound. They want to do something but they
can’t. They are in bondage. The stronghold is called “the king
of Egypt”. (The king of Egypt also represents pride.) How will
this stronghold let go? If
you read further in Exodus
3:19-20: 19 But I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not even
by a mighty hand. 20 so I will stretch out My hand
and strike Egypt with all My wonders
which I will do in its midst; and after
that he will let you go. God
will use His hand, which is His people, to show wonders in the
world. He wants to portray His glory through us so that the world
can see who He is and give Him the glory. That He is powerful, that
He can rebuke those things that holds us in bondage. Exodus
4:21-23: 21 And the Lord said to Moses, “When you go back to Egypt, see that you
do all those wonders (miracles and wonders, AMP) before Pharaoh
which I have put in your hand.
But I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go. 22 Then you shall say to Pharaoh, Thus says the Lord: “Israel is My son,
my firstborn. 23 So I say to you, let my son go
that he may serve me. But if you refuse to let him go, indeed I
will kill your son, your firstborn.” We
need to take authority in prayer over that stronghold that is the
king of Egypt in order for the Christians to be free of apathy,
pride, oppression and depression. We need to tell that stronghold
that wants to keep the believer in bondage to “let go”!! The
Lord has given us authority over those things that keep people in
bondage. The stronghold must let go sooner or later!!!! We have this
promise in Exodus. Hold on in faith and prayer! The Lord will not
allow the king of Egypt to keep Israel in bondage any longer. How
will the Lord show His glory in the earth? He is going to do it
through His glorious bride; the church; we, as His people. He can
not have a church that is crippled or in bondage, He wants us to be
free in order for us to serve and worship Him at the mountain!! So
take that what God has put in your hand; prayer, intercession, and
tell the enemy that he have to let go!!! (The
figure in the dream represents the king of Egypt. He does not want
the children of God to worship or serve the Lord, he is trying to
scare you so you will not go further, but that is all he can do. He
looked like death, because everywhere the king of Egypt comes there
is no progress……He did not back off even when I rebuked him,
because he will not let go at first. But he must let go at the end…..) Hallelujah,
glory to God the Father! (New King James Version in all passages, if nothing else is referred to.) 2009-05-29 |
