“But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell.” Numbers 33:55 KJV
“Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I thought to do unto them.” Numbers 33:56 KJV
When the Children of Israel were given their inheritance, God gave them instructions of what He wanted them to do! They were not obedient then and are, today, still reaping the results of their disobedience.
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 (the enemy), but we listened to his (the enemy's) 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 instead of justifying it, the 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:
“And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes. And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king's, saying, Go ye, enquire of the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found: for great is the wrath of the Lord that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according unto all that which is written concerning us.” 2 Kings 22:11-13 KJV
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, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV
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!
