Will You Enter The Battle?
Child, I have given you the victory, but you must fight to possess that
victory. Do not be like the first generation of the children of Israel
who I brought out the bondage of Egypt. I brought them to the boarder
of the promised list, I showed them the good fruit of the land, the
fulfillment of My promises to them. But they would not possess the land
because that required that they enter a battle and fight for it. They
became afraid, so they would not enter in. Instead of possessing and
enjoying My promises, they spend the remainder of their years wandering
aimlessly in the dessert. This happened because they were unwilling to
fight for what I desired to give into their hands.
Child of Mine, I have likewise brought you to the boarder of your promised
land. You have seen the good fruit, but you have also seen the giants
that stand between you and your goal. Why are you surprised that you
must do battle for it? Did you expect to simply hand it to you without
getting you involved in the process? Did you think it was going to be
easy?
What is your response? What will it be? Will you rise up in faith to
take this land that I desire to give to you? Will you battle, led by My
Spirit and covered in My anointing, to possess your promises? Or are
you going to give up and sit down in defeat and allow the enemy of your
souls to trample on you and discourage you and steal and kill and destroy
in your midst?
Rise up, children of Mine, and fight for what I have given to you. It is
already yours, I have set it aside for you. But you will not possess it
if you do not go fight for it. So, rise up. Allow Me to gird you with
My power and authority. Allow Me to give you My battle strategies. Allow
Me to lead you and to cause you to be victorious. You cannot win the
war if you are unwilling to march into the battle. But if you will fight
under My leading and with My authority and power, your victory is assured.
