Fighting Daily
"Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would
swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me".

(Psalms 56:1)

One wise man once said that, if God should open our eyes to see the battles that are being waged continually against our destiny by the enemies of our soul, we we would wake up from slumbering and would never want to go to sleep again, never!

The nature of the battle we face in life is graphically painted in today's anchor scripture. A swallowing enemy, that is waging daily war against us. His mouth must, no doubt, be very big. What that means is that an enemy that employs the weapon of the tongue to wear-out and 'finish' your prospects and accomplishments.

How does he do this daily? By incantations and enchantments. By curses, casting of spells, false accusation, causing accidents (domestic and others) that spill your blood, whispering doubts into your hearts, etc.

This is the worst kind of battle that any man can face. It is a silent battle that is not easily noticed. Many of us have been found wanting, in this aspect of spiritual warfare. It is a war that we are so ignorant of, and have ignored to our daily perils.

Many-a-time, the outcome of the actual battle had been pre-determined by the verbal chants that had gone forth to tilt the victory in favor of the enchanter. Many battles that were won or lost during the day-time were first fought at midnight seasons, before the dawn of each day. That is why Job 38:12 admonished us to take control of each day from the day-spring (i.e. from dawn). Only those who win in the night battles take charge as "Commanders" during the day.

Hammer of Fire
God Almighty has given us a weapon of victory, to destroy this 'amoury of the mouth' of the enemy. Praise God, He made provision for the 'Word Hammer' (Jeremiah 23:29) to smite the cheekbone and break the teeth (Psalms 3:7) of the enemy in battle. Instead of engaging the enemy in articulate arguments, just raiser an altar of fire at midnight and take delivery of the hammer of fire for your victorious battle against the enemy.

What else can the enemy chant without a cheekbone and teeth? The word hammer would not spare the enemy's tongue with its condemnation (Isaiah 54:17) blows, that grinds wicked tongues. You are not permitted to be slumbering daily when the enemy is fighting daily against you.

Now, prophetically raise up your right-hand, in the fashion of one who lifts up a hammer, in readiness to descend with force to break an obstacle. Take this prayer point with me with fire in your voice:
  • Hammer of Fire, descend and Destroy every evil mouth, that is opened in judgment against my glorious destiny this year 2006, in Jesus name.
  • Every altar of darkness raised against my goodness and family this year; Receive the fiery judgment of the hammer of the Almighty God Now, in Jesus name. Amen and Amen.
Pray these prayers 3 hot times, and and spent quality 5 minutes on each prayer, you shall return to share testimonies to the mighty power of God that is able to rescue and avenge you of your adversaries! in Jesus name.
