Divine Principles of Spiritual Warfare (13)

 


Loved one in Christ Jesus, I believe you are growing in the strength of the Lord. This is lesson thirteen on my teachings, the divine principles of spiritual warfare. Kindly read the previous lessons for more profound revelations.

This article will reveal some mysteries in the midnight hour and how we can position ourselves to break all enemy systems and become victorious in the Lord. The night is one of the best seasons; the devil and his minions attack innocent souls and Christian believers.

At this season, evil people (harlots, serial killers, vicious occult groups, womanizers, and other corrupt vessels) transact business. It is believed that numerous people die in hospitals, clinics, and homes in the middle of the night.

Armed robbers and insane people break through houses, financial institutions, and organizations to steal important information and money in the middle of the night. This is one reason I am writing this article to help you stay active in the Lord.

It is like a child who is ignorant of the fire. When the child experiences the fire's burning sensation, he will think twice when he sees it. Failure to discern systems and activities of the midnight hour opens the door for the spiritual forces to take advantage of your life. One question you must ask yourself is,

  • Why do you always feel sleepy in the evening?
  • Why do some animals locate their resting place in the evening and rest?
  • Why are some animals more intelligent than others?

Some animals work perfectly in the evening while others work in the morning and afternoon. In the same way, day and night have significant impacts on our life. Spiritual forces work most often in the night because humankind's activities stop or become less.

I realized in my life that the Holy Spirit always wakes me in the middle of the night to pray. The Holy Spirit always reveals the enemy’s plans to me so I can pray about them. He reveals some people's thoughts, feelings, and visions to me to be watchful and apply wisdom in my life. Child of God, the night is a season of prayer, action, watchfulness, and declaration of God’s Word.

In the book of Exodus, the author (some theologians believe Moses wrote this book) gave us a revelation about the midnight hour. Pharaoh and the Egyptians enslaved the Israelites to the extent that the Israelites cried unto God for deliverance.

God called Moses as a leader to help deliver the Israelites from the slavery of the Egyptians. When Moses confronted the Egyptians about the Israelites' condition, Pharaoh hindered Moses from taking the Israelites to the Promised Land.

The Lord used Moses to perform several miracles so that Pharaoh will allow the Israelites to leave Egypt. Because of Pharaoh's pride, the Lord hardened his heart. God wanted to show Pharaoh and the Egyptians His power.

And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.

And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

Exodus 12:29-34 KJV

The LORD killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle.

Why didn't God kill the Israelites' enemies in the morning, afternoon, or night but chose to kill in the middle of the night?

Midnight is a season of vengeance in the spiritual realm. If you want God Almighty and His angels to finish the enemies that are blocking the gates of your deliverance, use the midnight hour because that is when the spiritual forces attack without mercy.

Maybe some wicked people are using charms and dangerous spells to block God’s blessings upon your life. Some wicked people that has covenanted with the devil may be issuing curses and death arrows on you and your family in the middle of the night.

Some demonic alters in your family may be tightening the chains in your life in this hour. Some forces of darkness may be hijacking the blessings of God upon your life, family, church, business, job and community. You must use this hour to counter-attack the enemy blocking your gate.

I have had several dreams, visions, and trance in the middle of the night, so I know what I am writing to you. I remember I had a dream in the middle of the night where I saw a strange and old traditional priest commanding thunder to strike me.

In the dream, this old and wicked man commanded the first thunder to strike me, but it failed. He commanded the thunder the second time, and it failed. He commanded the thunder the third time. This time, the thunder stroked this old wicked traditional priest.

When I wake up from bed, I gave thanks to God Almighty for saving me from this wicked satanic agent. I have had several dreams and visions where "some men of God" attacked me with knives. Some were blocking me in certain rooms not to come out. Others were leading me to strange lands and battlegrounds.

There are numerable dreams and visions the Holy Spirit has revealed to me. Some men of God poured anointed oil on me whiles I ministered to tertiary students. Some were mentoring and impacting me in the Spirit.

Some men of God, too, were leading me to strange communities. These visions and dreams came in the middle of the night. If you are sensitive in the Spirit, the Holy Spirit will always reveal the Heavenly Father's mind, your loved ones, and the enemy's plans to you.

Failure to watch and pray at the midnight hour is to your detriment (Meditate on 1 Peter 5:8-9, Matthew 26:41 or get my book, Should We Fight?). I know sometimes it is challenging to rise on your feet and pray in the middle of the night. Other times too, the minions of the devil can cast spells on you. Discipline yourself and pray.

The satanic agents can project the spirit of slumber to make you tired and sleep. Break this evil spirit with prayer. When the LORD attacked the Egyptians with the strongest arrow, they surrendered.

And he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, and get you forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as ye have said.

Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and be gone; and bless me also.

And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We be all dead men.

Exodus 12:31-33 KJV

 

Child of God, the enemy, will never surrender until he receives the irrecoverable attack. Before Pharaoh and the Egyptians surrendered, God had to perform some miracles (See Exodus chapter six to chapter twelve in the Holy Scriptures).

Pharaoh surrendered to the Lord and Moses when his son died. Attacking the enemy does not mean he will surrender. You have to know the best attack to issue.  Know these truths.

  • Some enemies submit to the blood of Christ Jesus.
  • Some enemies submit to the Word of God.
  • Some enemies submit to the fire of the Holy Spirit.
  • Some enemies submit to the elements of the Lord.
  • Some enemies submit to the divine judgments of God.
  • Some enemies submit to fasting and prayers.
  • Some enemies submit to the Archangels of God.
  • Some enemies submit to prophetic decrees.
  • Some enemies submit to the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
  • Some enemies submit to the arrows of the Lord.
  • Some enemies submit to the declaration and profession of God’s Word.
  • Some enemies submit when we live in the Holiness of Christ Jesus.
  • Some enemies submit when we bind them.
  • Some enemies submit through cooperate prayers.
  • Some enemies submit when you are a dedicated labourer in God’s Kingdom.
  • Some enemies submit when you mention the name of Christ Jesus with absolute faith.

In a moment shall they die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand.

Job 36:20 KJV

We can see from the Holy Scriptures that it is at midnight hour that leaders, governors, kings, and important personalities depart from the earth realm. Some people die whiles asleep. Troubles, calamities, destructive decisions take place in secret organizations and covens in the midnight hour.

Failure to engage in prayers at this hour enforces the plans of the enemy. Child of God, don’t joke with the midnight hour because it is at this hour that you program the vision God has prepared for you. If you allow your body to dominate you in the middle of the night, you have allowed the enemy to take advantage.

  • Do you want to die before your time?
  • Do you want the enemy to block you from accessing the gate God has opened for you?
  • Do you want the enemy to hijack your star?
  • Do you want the enemy to destroy your family?
  • Do you want the enemy to plan your day for you when you wake up?
  • Do you want to become a prisoner in the enemy’s kingdom?
  • Do you want the enemy to distract you from following the path God has set for you?
  • Do you want to beg and suffer in life?
  • Do you want the enemy to enjoy the blessings God has prepared for you?
  • Do you want to remain in the cursed and satanic family covenant?
  • Do you want the enemy to kill the prosperous personalities in your family?
  • Do you want to lose your job?
  • Do you want to be a slave in the race of humankind?

If your answer is no to these questions, engage in intensive prayers in the middle of the night. I recommend you get my series of books for a more profound revelation. The midnight hour is prophetic.

Samson did something incredible in the midnight hour. Reading from this text will expose you to numerable spiritual warfare principles.


Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her.

And it was told the Gazites, saying, Samson is come hither. And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning, when it is day, we shall kill him.

And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron.

Judges 16:1-3 KJV

God called Samson to be a Judge of the Israelites. God anointed this man with incredible strength (strength of Archangels and strong animals). This man could fight a whole army (Philistines) with a jaw bone. Imagine the strength he possessed!

With all the anointing, Samson could not control his sexual feelings. He went around sleeping with all kinds of women. Samson did not develop his moral character, so it opened the door for the enemy to attack him.

Every Christian or leader must realize that sexual sin a strap of the enemy. Sexual sin can make you look like an imbecile on the battleground. This evil disease can reduce you to the lowest degree in life. It can defame the dignity of your life and make you sin-conscious. Anytime you engage in sexual sin, you open the portal for the enemy to attack you.

You can get my books, The Mysteries of Sex and Purity, The Mysteries of Sexual Purity, How to Activate the Anointing of Gladness, The Gates of Hell Shall Not Prevail, and How to Walk and Live in the Spirit for a more profound revelation.

When Samson slept with the harlot at Gaza (a city in southern Palestine), the Gazathites conspired to kill him. Sexual sin can lead to your premature death (See Proverbs 7:6-27). If you are not watchful in the field of sexual immorality, you can end in the hands of the enemy.

Morality, according to the Holy Scripture principles, is a vital key in spiritual warfare. Samson knew his enemies would attack him, so he escaped in the middle of the night. Child of God, the midnight hour is the season of escape.

Midnight is the time to set yourself free from the plans of the enemy. Samson took the doors of the gate of the city and the two posts, went away with them, bar and all, put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of a hill before Hebron.

God is a merciful Father. When you ask for mercies in the midnight hour with a repentant heart, Christ Jesus will deliver you from the curses, death sentence, and hopeless situation. Humankind can help you to a specific limit. It takes the mighty hands of God to lift you from that pit (joblessness, confusion, depression, hunger, hardship, pain, scarcity, and injustice).

God’s power is above all powers. Every authority submits to God’s authority. Align yourself in Christ Jesus righteousness for divine intervention. Repent and submit to God's Word. The enemy may look stronger and unstoppable in the natural or spiritual realm.

Samson’s anointing came from the King of KINGS and Lord of LORDS. Samson could take city gates and posts because God’s power (anointing) was resting on him. God is the source of power. Never allow the mockery and destructive words of the enemy to break you.

Transact spiritual business (intensive and Spirit-led prayer) in the midnight hour. Decree on the Word of God with absolute faith. Your prayers (tongue-speaking) may not make sense to the natural man or your senses. In the spiritual realm, you are breaking barriers. Imitate Paul and Silas's faith.


And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.

Acts 16:25-26 KJV

Apostle Paul and Silas went to prison because Paul delivered a young lady who was into the business of satanic divination. They received several punishments and went to prison because they were into the kingdom business (evangelism and church planting).

Paul and Silas praised God from their heart and prayed in the middle of the night. They knew the mysteries of the midnight hour. Their faith activated God’s hands and miracles (divine intervention). The earth responded to the praise and prayer of Paul and Silas.

If you pray and praise in the middle of the night, the chains holding your marriage, business, family, job, career, church growth, vision, leadership, country, and community will break. The elements of God respond when we pray and praise from our heart in the midnight hour. Know these truths (Meditate on Psalms 119:62).

  • The doors will open when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • God will cause men to favour you when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • The officers will give you the passport and visa when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • The organization will employ you when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • God will heal you from the strange disease when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • God will bring deliverance into your family when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • The Holy Spirit will sharpen you spiritually when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • The Holy Spirit will bring peace into the family when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.
  • When you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night, God will eliminate every Sanballat, Tobias, Jezebel, Ahab, Judas Iscariot, King Saul, Ahithophel, Haman, Herod, Goliath, Doeg, Pharaoh, and any satanic agent who has sworn to kill you before your time.
  • Salvation will enter the family, workplace, and jurisdiction when you pray and praise God from your heart in the middle of the night.

 

Pray this prayer as led by the Holy Spirit in the middle of the night

Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.

Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.

For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.

Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.

They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?

But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.

Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.

The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

Slay them not, lest my people forget: scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.

Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth.

And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.

But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.

Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.

Psalm 59:1-17 KJV

I have bolded some text in the Holy Scriptures. The dogs in the context of the scriptures are symbols of satanic agents. Some witches can turn into dogs and strange animals in the middle of the night. These dangerous dogs attacks and feed on innocent souls.

Barricade yourself and loved ones with the blood of Christ Jesus before these strange dogs feed on your blood. Take dominion in the spiritual realm in the middle of the night. Sleep early so you can rise and pray in the middle of the night.

To be continued…
