The Daily Word of Righteousness

Fifty-two Kingdom Concepts, #79

Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. (Psalms 24:7,8—NIV)

These evil compulsions dwelling in our personality are His enemies and our enemies. It is time now to drive them out of our land of promise, beginning with our own personality.

The trumpet of God is sounding in the heavens. The armies of Michael are preparing themselves to descend with Christ. No doubt some type of preparation is taking place among the deceased saints—perhaps more similar to what is taking place in us than we have any idea at the moment.

We are in a new day. The old patterns of the Christian religion will persist throughout the reign of Antichrist. But those who have ears to hear are moving past Pentecost into the Blowing of Trumpets.

We are ready to remove sin from the creation, beginning with our own personalities. We are not continually emphasizing our imputed righteousness, we are coming to maturity in the knowledge of good and evil. We are implacable concerning all sin—all sin!

We read in the Book of Daniel that God is ready to put an end to sin. This is the coming of the Kingdom of God, the doing of the will of God, to the earth.

How about you, dear reader? Is it in your heart to put an end to sin? Do you believe Jesus Christ came to destroy the works of the devil—not to forgive the works of the devil but to destroy them utterly, completely, perfectly, totally, and for eternity?

If so, then prepare your heart to ride on a white war stallion behind the Lord, for if you have prepared yourself you will appear with Him when He appears for every eye to see.

Right now—today—declare your love of righteousness and your hatred of wickedness. Follow the Holy Spirit as He makes known to you the sin and self-will in your own personality. Every idol in you must be brought down and crushed. All sin must go. Be merciless toward the sin in yourself. Give it no quarter. Get help from other Christians when you need it.

God has charged His angels with folly and has created mankind and the earth to be the place of His Throne for eternity. The enemy was defeated on the cross located on the earth, and will be defeated in you on the earth if you will follow the Holy Spirit diligently, putting to death the deeds of your body as the Spirit guides and enables you.

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. (II Corinthians 10:3,4—NIV)

Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and his army. (Revelation 19:19—NIV)
