Recovering the territories that Satan Stole

Unusual Alexis Fernando Jimenez. One word that summarizes what happened in the street dead. Long, narrow, bumpy on the tarmac, as if it were a tragic stage after a bombing in Beirut. It happened with everything from traffic accidents, crimes through life exhausted from unsuspecting passers-by to incidents of domestic violence that erupted in a surprising and inexplicable. - Living in this neighborhood is hell - said Mrs. Mélida while fanning with a magazine, a hot evening and monotonous as the role of a sad clown. - I do not think we can do much, her husband replied, gazing into the distance of two children playing ball, heedless of everything and everyone. - Yes, we can not sit still while this industry that I grew up, once quiet and fixer, year by year to gain ground left by the evil interrupted his granddaughter. - You and your things of religion --- questioned the grandmother, frowning and looking through the glasses, thick and big enough telescope lenses. - No, grandparents. It is a matter of religion. It's just that we recover the ground Satan has gained the girl explained. He had managed to capture the attention of the elderly.

- Nonsense, religious fanatics, dismissed his grandfather with the characteristic hand movement, which denoted as indifference or disdain. - You are wrong, the grandfather said it.-We move in two dimensions: one physical and the other spiritual. And the spiritual influences in the physical dimension. It's the best explanation for what is happening in the block. So much violence and death are not something logical -. She emphasized each of his words. - Let us explain ... - Grandma stepped in when he guessed her husband's desire, to go into the room. So many years of sharing life together allowed almost anticipate what he would do. They talked for a long time. She explained to them what the Bible said about it. She began praying, initially in the solitude of his room, in an attempt to regain territory in the hands of Satan. In less than three weeks other committed Christians joined their homework, doing prayer walks and cry, anointing all corners and facades with oil. While many laughed at them, they could not ignore the changes that occurred in the sectgor. Violence rates fell dramatically and two clubs that funcionabamn close, closed their doors.

Owners could not even explain what drove them to move elsewhere. Christians regained control of the area! The battle of two worlds Although many people are reluctant to accept it, is a battle between two worlds with particular characteristics: physical and spiritual. And two, there is an interaction. On one occasion the Lord Jesus, receive the declaration of the Apostle Peter about his divinity, he said, "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it . And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Then he commanded his disciples not to tell anyone that he was Jesus the Christ. (Matthew 16:18-20) That prerogative was given to Christians. Since the material dimension in which we move you and me, hit the spiritual dimension. If we cry, we do from the physical dimension, we hear back from the spiritual dimension, from God (cf.

Matthew 6:10). Like when it comes to impact the hosts of evil. While we do from the physical dimension, Satan and all his followers must take the flight because we are bursting through a powerful mechanism as is prayer. When Christians become aware of this reality, there are some extraordinary changes in the environment around us. We can regain the territories that Satan stole subtlety and deceit! Think about it: your nation, province, city and even the living area can be fully governed by Jesus Christ if from now we send the task to defeat all the hosts of evil that now dominate because of the sin of the genus human (cf. James 4.7) We must take possession of the territories when God gives us something, like our family who are believers, we must act in faith and possessions of all that was bequeathed to us. Declared by the words and believe with your heart.

Find an excellent illustration of this point when death occurs Moses and Joshua, his closest aide, is responsible for keeping the people of Israel to the promised land. God was explicit when he transferred the mission yet, the power and authority: "My servant Moses is dead, now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou and all this people, unto the land which I give to the children of Israel. I have given, as I said to Moses, every place whereon the sole of your foot. From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites to the Great Sea where the sun sets, be your territory. ? (Joshua 1:2-4). In the passage God declares that any territory trod-that is, which took possession, he handed in his possession. The issue was not only to say, "This land belongs to us?, But to take possession of it. To give battle, not their strength but in the Lord. Think for a moment that lives on the territory: Is there violence? Addiction? Sexual promiscuity? Death? Witchcraft? Now on a personal level: Are you facing obstacles? Attacks in your spiritual life?

And what about your family: Is it difficult for your spouse, children and families receive the message of salvation? Do any of your relatives is subjected to drugs or even moral behavior risky? If so, my question required before proceeding with the Bible Study is: What are you doing to recover this territory that Satan has stolen by trickery and subtlety? It's yours, as is his family and the blessings promised by God for their existence, for example - but to assume a passive attitude to the siege and spiritual adversary attacks, has now given way to recover. The battle will be victorious because we will not fight ourselves, but Jesus Christ as our mighty Captain! Keep in mind that God told Joshua and us today, which is necessary to take possession of the land. Do not resign but to take what belongs to us. Give the battle from the material world, impacting the spiritual dimension. Any bond must be broken! Believe and act as the key to realizing the promises Spiritual warfare has two valuable foundations. The first believe the promises of God. The second act. They are closely linked. That is why Joshua and the Israelites decided to move in this direction: to believe and act.

Crossing the River Jordan was a first hurdle. God promised that by taking possession, that is, when your feet touch the water, the miracle would occur. "And when the soles of the priests carrying the ark of Jehovah, Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of Jordan, the waters of Jordan were divided, because the water coming from above will stop at a lot.? (Joshua 3:13). No doubt it must have been terrifying for many have before his eyes the majesty of this great river. But they believed what God said! So got the victory through what had been an enormous mass of water: "And when the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord rose from the midst of Jordan, and the soles of the feet of the priests were in dry, the waters of Jordan returned to his place, running as before on all edges.? (Joshua 4:18) His family, property, labor, living area, the city and the nation are for Christ. It is up to you to take what is theirs. Do not allow Satan to continue usurping what the Lord gave him.

Do not settle. Why see their children involved in drugs, his marriage in ruins, leaving the drain economic resources and the society in which you are in chaos unfolds? Territories gained through spiritual warfare the decisive moment came, the Israelites with Joshua at the head, fought a battle but not in the physical but spiritual. And conquered Jericho! Remember, as Chapter 6 describes the book of Joshua, was a city tightly closed to prevent incursions of the enemy (verse 1). The city, located in the Jordan Valley (see Deuteronomy 34.1, 3), about 8 kilometers from the Dead Sea, was strategic because it allowed the mastery of a wide territory. Historians point out that the walls had a height of 9 meters and 2 meters thick. A true mass of stone. On the walls there were houses. Their inhabitants were prepared to give battle. Faced with this tangible reality, the Israelites conceived of the possibility to enter by force, but of course, many had to be assailed by the fear and discouragement. But God taught them a different strategy in our time that we define as spiritual war plan: "The Lord said to Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho and its king, the mighty men of war.

March around for the city, all the men of war, going around the city once and this shalt thou do six days. And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, the priests blowing the trumpets. And when they make a long ram's horn, and you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a loud voice, and the city wall will fall, then climb the people, every man straight ahead.? (Joshua 6:2-5) sounded illogical, but Joshua and the Israelites waged battle with the most incredible weapons, is a challenge as great as was to conquer a fortified city, taking possession of the land surrounding it, to raise sounds of war -which is nothing but the prayer of the people in pursuit of an event that breaks any explanation - rely on the power of God, and finally: to proclaim victory. Think for a moment in the territory it inhabits, at home, personal finance ... and many other spaces that are his, for that country, and it was time to regain the power, authority and anointing of Jesus Christ.

On the seventh day of being around and taking possession of the land, got the last spiritual battle: "Then the people shouted when the priests blew the trumpets: and it happened that when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, he shouted with a great shout, the wall collapsed, the people went up to the city, every man straight before him, and took it.? (Joshua 6.20) Of course, Satan will try to dissuade him by telling your mind that is only a statement of a religious fanatic. Even, it is likely to sow seeds of doubt. Understandable because he wants to stay in control of the territories, cities, homes and personal finance. Do not believe! Believe God. Between 1907 and 1952 archaeologists excavated Europeans and Americans in the West Bank, where Jericho was located. Studies conducted in-depth, confirmed that the walls fell in effect, as evidenced by the remains of stone and mortar unearthed. There was an implosion, ie, the structure fell from the inside out. Not require that the foundations were undermined and the collapse was probably due to an earthquake. There is evidence also that fire must have occurred in parallel into the city.

Three circles divine protection when the Bible clearly teaches that God has defined circles of power to protect our lives, our families and our possessions. Satan himself must admit, speaking of the patriarch Job, whom he could not attack. The adversary admitted before the dear heavenly Father, "Satan replied: - Job And did you credit without receiving anything in return? Are not under your protection he and his family and all his possessions? Thus Thou hast blessed the work of their hands that their flocks and herds fill the whole earth. But stretch out your hand and remove everything you own, to see curse you to your face!? (Job 1:9-11, NIV) Oh, no doubt will be thinking carefully about what you have studied and a reality for your life: from the material impacted the spiritual world by spiritual warfare (see Ephesians 6.12). For this reason, today is the day to close every door you have opened to evil and begin to regain territory in their city, their home, in his personal life and finances. How? First, evaluate your life carefully, identifying where there are open doors to the world of evil, and second, fully submit to God (James 4:7), third, stand in the gap and command, on the authority given to Jesus Christ leave your life, family, possessions and territories.

Recover the spot! Never forget that we do in prayer and cry, a powerful weapon that they are leaving to use the Christians, while the devil is happy because he can continue his ruse of deception and lies. Go on. Do not stop. You were born to take the victory in Christ! Never forget: Satan is defeated. You, as a child of God, is the winner.
