The
blood of Jesus is God’s last card for liberation from any oppression of
darkness.
“And
Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken
unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.
And the LORD said unto him, What is that in
thine hand? And he said, A rod.
And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he
cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it.
And
the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail. And he
put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand:
That
they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the
God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee.
And
the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand into thy bosom. And he
put his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was
leprous as snow.
And
he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. And he put his hand into his
bosom again; and plucked it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned again
as his other flesh.
And
it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither hearken to the
voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter sign.
And
it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these two signs, neither
hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and
pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river
shall become blood upon the dry land.” (Ex.4:1-9)
In
this scripture, we can see that the first question that God asked Moses in the
journey of liberation he was to embark upon was “what is that in thine hand?”
this means that there is something in you that can liberate you from the level
that you are into a glorious level. Moses was busy complaining – they will not
believe me but God was telling him, ‘what is that in your hand’. What
God has placed in you can feed your five thousand men. You are not disadvantaged!
Stop complaining that why am I born in this poor family? Stop seeing yourself
without helper! God has loaded you with all that you need to make global
impact. The little that is in your hand can become a mighty ocean where people
will come to drink.
Job
8:7 which says “though thy beginning was
small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase”
Enough
of sitting down and expecting manna to fall from heaven when you have something
that can bring down manna for you. Use your talent and money will ever flow in
your direction.
There
was one day that a sister came to see me. She said I should pray that she would
locate her husband and get married. Immediately God told me to tell her that
her husband will come when she put the singing gift in her to work. This means,
it was the gift that will make her way to successful marriage. After few days,
her sister reported to me that she is anxious to marry any ‘guy’ through any
means. I later confirmed it that it was true. So many don’t want to work on what
they have inside, they just want the OX to be treading out the corn for them.
Remember, it was when Moses released the rod in his hand that it became a
serpent. For years, the rod remained an ordinary rod until he stepped out by
faith to release it. So until you put to work the grace that is in your hand,
stagnation continues. But from today, I see God giving you strategies on how to
use your income in the name of Jesus. I see you stepping out in faith to preach
to that neighbour and signs and wonders following you! I see divine promptings
in your spirit causing you to do the right thing at the right time, and from
today: you will not miss opportunities for a change of level in the name of
Jesus.
Three Steps to Take Against the Spirit
of Bondage
1. The voice of the Rod:
THE
ROD BECAME SERPENT (Ex. 4:2-5)
The
rod is the word of God but the rod became serpent means you must declare the
word of God concerning warfare. There are many sided wisdom of God. There is
the word for favour, healing, deliverance etc., so if any man needs healing in
his body, he must know healing scripture in order to claim his inheritance. The
first step you should take against your adversary is to declare WARFARE TIME.
For instance, you can declare a period of time to seek solution to the problem
in warfare. The reason for this is because for every problem, there is an
unseen force behind it. You must address that devil which keeps you in debt.
Tell the devil to get lost out of your family, call back peace in your home,
resist the devil and he will flee from you. Rise up! Declare war against your
pharaoh and you will see heaven backing you up.
Remember
until you do something about your case, it will continue and end up becoming a
generational curse for your seed to come.
After
the Rod had become serpent, God told Moses to pick up the serpent by its tail
and it became a rod. This means when using the written word of warfare against
your pharaoh, be careful not to touch the head of the serpent i.e. be careful of your words, don’t speak against
yourself. Don’t play with sin.
2
Tim. 2: 4 says “No man that warreth
entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath
chosen him to be a soldier.”
Any
man that is warring against his enemies and at the same time playing around
with sin should expect a strange arrow. Therefore when you bet the devil a
fight of faith, don’t go back, hold on tenaciously and at the end victory is
sure.
There
was a man of God who was mightily used of God in the early 1980s. The devil
appeared to him and promised to bring him down. The man neglected and
overlooked it. Unfortunately, the devil planted ‘a strange woman’ who
terminated his call and his family. But thanks be to God that his son has taken
over his ministry and God is mightily using him. Therefore I warn you when
engaging in a battle against the gates of Hell, separate yourself from anything
that will make the war turn against you. Nevertheless God is faithful!
2. The Voice Of The Hand
HAND
BECAME LEPROUS AS SNOW (Ex.4:6-7)
God
commanded Moses to put his hand in his bosom and when he brought it out it
became leprous. The hand in the bosom means to engage yourself with
fasting, prayers, the Word and warfare songs that will liberate your destiny
from the hand of pharaoh. Mind you, there are some powers that will not bow
until you put your hand in your bosom. You can liken it to a police man talking
to an offender and he is behaving stubborn. All that the police man needs to do
is to bring out his gun, and he would submit.
Psalm
66:3 Say unto God, “How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power
shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.”
The
powers of pharaoh are stubborn powers. It takes a man or woman that has dipped himself
or herself in covenant principles to successfully overcome pharaoh. The hand of
pharaoh is a hand of hard bondage.
Ephesians
6:12-13 say “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore
take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the
evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
Now,
after Moses had put his hand in his bosom, God told him to bring it out and it
became leprous as snow.
Leprousy
signifies disgrace, shame and defeat. When prophetess Miriam with Aaron spake
against Moses the Prophet, she became leprous as snow (i.e. total disgrace).
Her restoration came after she was put out from the camp for seven days
(Num.12:14-15). It also signifies the consequences of sin. So God is telling
you that He is about to release judgment upon pharaoh for the sin of bondage on
God’s people.
Leprousy
as snow shows God’s extreme judgment upon your adversary in order to release
your ultimate help.
Isa.
50:11 says “Behold, all ye that kindle a
fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your
fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand;
ye shall lie down in sorrow.
(KJV)”
You
must be ready to revenge all disobedience against God’s word in your life. Also
note that the tougher the battle, the greater the victory. God will train you
according to your mission. The bigger your mission, the tougher your training!
The higher the level, the greater the devil! So rejoice and be exceeding glad
for the training will fall in for a bigger testimony. God will not allow you to
fight a goliath that He knows that he has not put the ability to overcome in
you. For instance: David was neither known or honourable in his house, not to
talk of his kindred, but when the kingly anointing came upon him, he received
two kinds of promotions which are:
a.
He was brought to
the palace to play before the existing king Saul and he became his armour
bearer.
b.
He faced kingly
challenges – like killing Lions, Bears and Goliath (1 Sam.16:12-13, 21;
17:4-54).
My
prayer for you this day is that God will never allow you to make kingly
mistakes in life. Be careful! Once you function in the kingly anointing, any
mistake you make may hang you or pull you down.
Oh!
It is time for God to rain down leprousy upon the hand of pharaoh against your
life. I decree, anyone that stand against your progress shall fall after the
order of Goliath in the name of Jesus. Any evil hand holding your promotion and
favour, I command leprousy as snow to fall upon that hand in Jesus name.
3. The Voice of the Blood
WATER
BECAME BLOOD (EX. 4:8-9)
God
told Moses that if the Israelites believed not the two signs because of the
hardness of their heart that certainly they would believe the third sign. The
commandment was to take water from a river, not a pool or sea and it would
become blood. Water gives life and without it no one will survive. River
represents peace because one of its characteristics is that it flows. We do
sing this song:
I’ve peace like a river,
peace like a river, peace like a river
in my soul ( 2 times)
But
the third time, when water (life) from a river (peace) was poured upon the dry
land of Egypt which represents Sin and Wickedness, it turned to blood which is
death.
So
God is saying, when I turn rod to serpent and a hand became leprous yet pharaoh
didn’t let you go free, I will turn water into blood and certainly he will let
you go. The blood of Jesus is God’s last card for liberation from any
oppression of darkness as it was in the case of the Israelites against the
Egyptians. Death is the final word that your stubborn pursuers will obey. It
has no friend and it is an enemy of all. If death is what will make pharaoh to
bow this year, God will sanction it in Jesus name.
“And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith
the LORD, Israel is my son, even my firstborn:
23 And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he
may serve me: and if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even
thy firstborn.” (Ex. 4: 22, 23)
And
when God did it, pharaoh released God’s people to their possessions. Therefore
listen! No problem can survive at the presence of the blood of Jesus. The blood
of Jesus releases death in the camp of the enemy. If it takes God the father to
slay his firstborn to redeem you and me, then there is nothing – in Heaven,
neither on Earth nor beneath the earth that God cannot slay in order to keep
you. You are God’s best!
