Overcome Warfare in the Promised Land
Manage episode 460567586 series 3280086
Through the life of Abraham, discover the principles that prepare you for victory, stewardship, and access to higher dimensions of grace & fellowship.
Entering the promised land does not mean the absence of opposition. A blessing worth having is a blessing worth fighting for. Every promise land has certain giants that you have been sent to uproot. Warfare is a sign of ownership.
Learn to establish peace and dominion over every form of warfare in your promised land. Many lose their blessings because they fail to discern their opposition.
Develop the tenacity of a warrior to protect the inheritance God has entrusted to you. What is given to you, must remain with you. Your ability to steward a blessing is what qualifies you for more.
Soldiers are not forged in warfare; they are prepared in seasons of peace and deployed in battle. Growth and development happen in secret when there’s no visible threat. Learn the art of growing and developing yourself in secret. Train to function as a nation, even when you are small.
What have you accomplished during your season of peace? Abraham didn’t just have servants; they were warriors & generals. What you do in your seasons of peace will determine what will happen in your seasons of demand.
Abraham, along with his 318 men, decided to fight at night. Which means they were trained to fight in darkness; they could distinguish between allies and enemies. This mission was not just about rescuing Lot but delivering an overwhelming victory that would serve as a warning to his enemies.
How you respond to battles will determine what will happen in the future.
Abraham possessed a territorial advantage because he walked the length and breadth of the land. Have you studied your land? Do you understand what’s needed to secure your breakthrough?
In Gen. 14:18–19, we read of Melchizedek, a king and priest of God, meeting Abraham. While everyone else carried weapons, here was a man carrying bread & wine. Abraham recognized he was in the presence of greatness.
Is it possible that you are qualified for a higher level of fellowship once you have mastered a level of warfare? Welcome to a new lineage, a higher dimension of friendship—a hybrid of kings and priests.
There are dimensions of grace that many will never see because they have not overcome the giants in their current league. Melchizedek's arrival was an announcement, welcoming Abraham to the big league.
Despite all the warfare, there was peace in Melchizedek’s land, and he carried a word of blessing. Choose the one who can speak to the gold, rather than the one who has the gold.
Abraham recognized his divine opportunity; he gave a tenth of his possessions to Melchizedek. By giving his tithe, he transitioned from a league of kings to the league of Melchizedek. He was now able to function at the level of his blessing.
Something happens when a blessing comes from a Spirit greater than you. The blessing causes you to function not from where you are but from where the blessing has come. The blessing of Melchizedek qualifies you for certain visitations, privileged information, and encounters. Now, the Lord becomes Abraham’s great reward.
In Genesis 15:9, the Lord instructs Abraham to bring a specific offering. It is a privilege when God reveals exactly what He desires from you.
When you are connected to the line of Melchizedek, your offerings are not random—they are precise and tailor-made by divine instruction. One encounter with Melchizedek qualified Abraham for revelations extending 400 years into the future. A single tithe into a source greater than himself unlocked encounters beyond his comprehension. In one moment, the destiny of three nations was revealed to him.
When you encounter Melchizedek, his visitors become your visitors; his encounters are your encounters.
Welcome to a higher dimension of fellowship.
Receive grace to overcome every warfare and walk into life-changing encounters with the Holy Spirit.
