Freedom and deliverance
During the watches of the night, particularly the fourth watch, the Holy Spirit is prepared to strike the chains that have you bounded so that they fall to the ground.
The Holy Spirit will gird your waist with the belt of truth and protect you with the breastplate of righteousness.
During the night watch, the Holy Spirit will cover your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace.
The Holy Spirit will hold up the shield of faith to block the fiery arrows of the devil.
The Lord Jesus Christ will crown you with the helmet of salvation as you take up the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God (Ephesians 6: 10-20).
The Lord Jesus Christ will lead you into your freedom before the breaking of the day in the fourth watch of the night.
We cannot afford to slumber and allow the enemy to catch us off guard.
The enemy is busy plotting to steal, kill and destroy but thank God that Jesus came to give us life and life more abundantly.
So we must stay alert and cry out to God “evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and He shall hear my voice” (Psalm 55:17).
Jesus constantly rose early before daybreak to find a solitary place to pray (Mark 1:35).
Consequently, He was able to perform many miracles, heal the sick, deliver and set the captive free.
Jesus has overcome the world and trampled the enemy and has passed on this victory to His people.
“And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. And I will give him the morning star. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.” (Revelation 2:26-29)
Jesus will one day return in an hour when we do not know.
Therefore, we must be watching.
We must be prepared!
We must be ready!
“Therefore, you also be ready, for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect” (Luke 12:40)
“Blessed are those who when the Lord returns will find them watching” (Luke 12:35 NKJV).
Thank you, Jesus! Hallelujah!
LET US WATCH AND PRAY!
