FAITH CAPSULE: Those agents that do not represent God in your life need to be permanently terminated.
1 Kings 18: 20-40
Elijah needed to draw a line between the Lord God and the Baal god,“And Elijah came to all the people, and said, “How long will you falter between two opinions? If the Lordis God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.” But the people answered him not a word. Then Elijah said to the people, “I alone am left a prophet of the Lord; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. Therefore let them give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, but put no fire under it; and I will prepare the other bull, and lay it on the wood, but put no fire under it. Then you call on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the Lord; and the God who answers by fire, He is God.” (1 Kings 18:21-24)Just like Elijah we can also draw a line against our enemy.
Indeed God answered by fire. After it had been clarified between the God of Elijah and the prophets of Baal that the God of Elijah is the Lord God, and there is none to worship but Him, Elijah declared war against the prophets of Baal. 1 Kings 18:40, “And Elijah said to them, ‘seize the prophets of Baal! Do not let one of them escape!’ So they seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the Brook Kishon and executed them there.” Where are you? Where is your location on the ground of God? Have you accepted Him as the only God that is God, the Lord of Lords, the Eternal Creator, and the One who was, who is and who will always be? If you have been able to accept Him on that ground, you are in tune with heaven and you are on your Mount Carmel. Just like Elijah did, take your stand and call on God today that all agents of confusion, disturbance, and wickedness be seized just as were the Baal prophets at the Brook of Kishon. Pray that they will not escape the hand that seizes them. Those agents that do not represent God in your life need to be permanently and eternally executed so they will have no life in them to work against you ever. Do not spare them. Go ahead with your weapon (the Word of God) to invade them, raid them, disable them, unmake them; do not spare them. Pray a standing prayer and let God work on your behalf and victory is certain in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Prayer for today: Pray the prayer of the Psalm 129:5-6, “Let all those who hate Zionbe put to shame and turned back.Let them be as the grass on the housetops,which withers before it grows up.
