"But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall be that those whom you let remain shall be irritants in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they shall harass you in the land where you dwell."(Numbers 33:55 NKJV)
"Moreover it shall be that I will do to you as I thought to do to them.’ ”"(Numbers 33:56 NKJV)
When the Children of Israel were given their inheritance, God gave them instructions of what He wanted them to do! There were not obedient then and are still reaping the results of the disobedience they sowed.
And we have done the same.
When we "made Jesus our Savior", God gave us a new heart (our land to possess.) In His Word, we are given specific instructions on how to drive out the inhabitants (enemy), but we listened to his lies and have "done what seemed right" to us. (Deuteronomy 12:8) We have been disobedient, and are paying the price! We are harassed and tormented, and have been for so long we believe it's the norm! It does not have to be!
In repentance we can take back the land! In humbling ourselves, confessing the unforgiveness, bitterness, anger, worry, that lives in our heart and repenting of our sins of disobedience, we drive them out!
When you deal with your sin in stead of justifying it, those demons have no authority to stay. They have to leave!
It is a battle, and few win, because of the lies the enemy has sown, and we've accepted as truth. The traditions of men and doctrines of demons have kept the church in bondage for hundreds of years!
Just as in the days of Josiah:
"Now it happened, when the king heard the words of the Book of the Law, that he tore his clothes.
“Go, inquire of the LORD for me, for the people and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that has been found; for great is the wrath of the LORD that is aroused against us, because our fathers have not obeyed the words of this book, to do according to all that is written concerning us.” (II Kings 22:11, 13 NKJV)
We do not read, much less live by the Word of God! We have not torn down the high places, and our idols abound!
Freedom comes when we are obedient to God's Word; not what our denominations teach!
Time is short and His wrath is great! Look Everyman to himself; examine your heart, and turn back in repentance!
"if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land." (II Chronicles 7:14 NKJV)
Don't wait for everyone else! You are responsible for you! You want your land healed? Humble yourself and repent! Don't wait another moment!
If He is not your LORD, then He is not your Savior!
Repent!
Even so - MARANATHA!
