Nehemiah 9:22-24
“Then you (the Lord) helped our ancestors conquer kingdoms and nations, and you placed your people in every corner of the land. They took over the land of King Sihon of Heshbon and the land of King Og of Bashan. You made their descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and brought them into the land you had promised their ancestors. They went in and took possession of the land. You subdued whole nations before them. Even the Canaanites, who inhabited the land, were powerless! Your people could deal with these nations and their kings as they pleased.”
Do you not see? Do you not understand why my people were able to conquer these enemies, even giants? It is because they trusted me. They obeyed me. They took my Word and lived it. You have the same power in your world. You have been given dominion over your enemy. You have complete access to my power, to my armies, to my angels. You have been trusted with your world to steward it, to protect it, to be its avenger when necessary. You are to protect my children, to protect and help the widows and orphans. You are my warriors. What are you doing? What steps are you taking to conquer those who would abuse my children, the weak and defenseless? What are you doing to take back possession of your “governments”? What are you doing to bring me back into your Nation? Do you not trust me? Do you not know you have the God of the Universe, the Creator of All, the One True God – you have me on your side? Remember the Wizard of Oz? How the entire land of Oz was afraid of the Great and Powerful Oz? Everyone trembled at his voice. Everyone bowed to his commands. Until little Toto pulled back the curtain and it became evident that the Great and Powerful Oz was just a man with the ability to fool the people. So it is in your world. They have no power other than that which you allow them to have, which you give them. Why do you cower? Why do you listen to them and not to me? Why do you not gather together, create the army I created you all to be and overtake the evil that has been allowed – yes you all allowed it – the evil that has been allowed to overtake your world? Your world is where it is today because you allow it. Let that sink in, let that penetrate your mind, your heart and your soul. YOU ALLOW IT. Just stop. Stop allowing it. Stop going along with it. Fight back. Pick up the sword of the spirit and fight back. Everyone laughed at Nancy Reagan when she said “Just say no.” But, child, it is that easy. When faced with things that you know are not right, that you know are evil, and you know contradict my Word – just say no. No. Such a powerful word. If my children would stand together and just say no, everything would change. Armies are only successful when they are one unit – working together – under one command – following the same directives. So it must be with you. One unit, working together, under one command – me, my Spirit. Following the same directives – my Word. It’s not easy, but it is quite simple. Stop making it so complicated. One unit, working together, under one command, following the same directives. Be that army and take back your world.
