THE FORCES OF THE SPIRIT, BY PASTOR VICTOR
THE
FORCES OF THE SPIRIT
When the earth was out of focus, and in a state of chaos, without
form and void, then the Spirit of the Lord moved upon the surface of the
deep, then the Lord of creation spoke and things began to take shape,
that is a clear indication that whatever we are to do or achieve we need
the movement of the forces of the Spirit before we can act or even when
we act need to activate this force. Ge 1:1 In the beginning God
created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and
void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God
moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light:
and there was light.(KJV) The forces of the spirit is the wind that
gives life to anything that is in a state of comatose, or even dead Eze
37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit
of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full
of bones, 2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold,
there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. 3
And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O
Lord GOD, thou knowest. 4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these
bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. 5
Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to
enter into you, and ye shall live: 6 And I will lay sinews upon you,
and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put
breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.7
So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a
noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his
bone. 8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon
them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them. 9
Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and
say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O
breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. 10 So I
prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they
lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army. (KJV))
The wind has been noted to behind the birthing of great things from
scriptural revelations. Da 7:1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of
Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he
wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. 2 Daniel spake and
said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the
heaven strove upon the great sea. 3 And four great beasts came up from
the sea, diverse one from another. 4 The first was like a lion, and had
eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was
lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a
man's heart was given to it. (KJV) That is the reason the scripture
said that everyone that is born of the Spirit is a force of the spirit,
and that same person is also likened unto a wind, Joh 3:3 Jesus answered
and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be
born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto
him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time
into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I
say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he
cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh
is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not
that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where
it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell
whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of
the Spirit. (KJV)) Ps 104:3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the
waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings
of the wind: 4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming
fire: 5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be
removed for ever. (KJV)) Even the Angels of God are likened to winds
too, and the ministers are the burning fire, but there negative force of
the spirit that is wicked Angels or satanic agents, Eph 2:2 Wherein in
time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to
the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the
children of disobedience: (KJV) The forces of the Spirit talks about
the powerful impact the spiritual realm exacts over the physical realm,
that is the power of the supernatural over the natural, or better
identified as the superiority of the extra-ordinary over the ordinary in
real life situations. This insight will reveal to us the superiority of
the heaven over the earth, and also the superiority of the Kingdom of
God over other Kingdoms. Joh 3:31 He that cometh from above is above
all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he
that cometh from heaven is above all.(KJV) This will help to inculcate
into us the above mentality, and our superiority in the realm of the
spirit which is the force behind the conquerors mentality. Col 3:1 If
ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where
Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things
above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is
hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear,
then shall ye also appear with him in glory.5 Mortify therefore your
members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate
affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6
For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of
disobedience: (KJV) The forces of the Spirit is the powerful insight on
how to live a supernatural life in the natural, and an extra-ordinary
life in the ordinary, which also means a life of heaven on earth. De
11:18 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your
soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as
frontlets between your eyes. And ye shall teach them your children,
speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest
by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.20 And thou
shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy
gates:21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your
children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give
them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.(KJV) The scripture said that
when we think in accordance to the revelations of the word in our daily
lives we will actually life as if we are in heaven, therefore
meditating the scriptures is known as the demonstration of the forces of
the Spirit and it will usher us into the heavenly even while still here
on the earth. Isa 51:16 And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I
have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the
heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou
art my people.(KJV) God also said that the way of bringing heaven to the
earth is by the word of God which we declare with our mouth, which is
to say that declaring scriptures both in prayers, in our everyday
living, or even in prophecy is the same as demonstrating the forces of
the Spirit which will ultimately usher in the heaven into our lives. 1Co
2:4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's
wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: (KJV) And also
whenever anyone is teaching or preaching the word of God, the person is
demonstrating the forces of the Spirit, and if such is done the
supernatural is introduced into the natural and then miracle becomes the
outcome. And with this understanding, we can rephrase the book of Acts
of the Apostles, chapter ten and verse thirty eight, Ac 10:38 How God
anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went
about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for
God was with him.(KJV)) It can be rephrased thus, How God anointed Jesus
Christ with the Holy Ghost and with power; and as He demonstrated it,
He healed everyone who was oppressed of the devil, because the
demonstration is a proof that God was with Him. There is a therefore a
natural life, and there is also a supernatural life, and there is the
occult life, and the truth is that the forces of the spirit which we
command determines the life we live, which could either be the natural,
whose identity is the ordinary life, and the occult that has the
identity of occultism, while the supernatural force produces the
extra-ordinary life. The force of the spirit is the key behind high
living in the midst of average, and men and women of low lives, it
ushers us into the realm of higher ways of God’s life, Isa 55:8 For my
thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the
LORD.9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways
higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. 10 For as the
rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither,
but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may
give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall my word be
that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but
it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the
thing whereto I sent it. (KJV) Indeed there is a higher way of life, and
a higher thought of life, and both are a demonstration of the spirit
which is made possible by the active utilization of the revealed word of
God. This was what the Lord was teaching in the book of John, when He
said that His spoken word is first the spirit, which ushers in life of
the spirit. Joh 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh
profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and
they are life.(KJV) It is the spirit in the word that makes everything
it comes in contact with to come alive. So that behind every spoken
word there is a spirit of the speaker, therefore our spoken word is a
gateway into the realm of the spirit that we are operating in, and the
same word releases the life of that realm of the spirit into the mental
faculty of the hearers, which is to say without any iota of doubt that
the forces of the spirit can be communicated to others through our
spoken words. Therefore the forces of the spirit is impart able, both
through spoken word, body contact, and materials that has touched any
part of the carrier, and through any other means that God through the
Holy Spirit chooses to manifest. Ro 1:10 Making request, if by any means
now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to
come unto you. 11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some
spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established; (KJV) At every time
in point and in the life of everyone there are forces of the spirit at
work in his or her life, depending on which kingdom, and relationship
that one is involved in. THE FORCES OF THE
SPIRIT IN THE KINGDOM;
In the kingdom of God, the forces of the spirit in operation is
known as Zoƫ, or immortality, otherwise known as Divine life, 2Pe 1:2
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and
of Jesus our Lord,3 According as his divine power hath given unto us
all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge
of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:4 Whereby are given unto
us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be
partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in
the world through lust.(KJV) This is also known as immortality, which
swallows death and demystifies every satanic attacks, wiles, and
everything that the devil has to offer. Eph 6:12 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. 13 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. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about
with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your
feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 Above all,
taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the
fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the
sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:18 Praying always with
all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with
all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 And for me, that
utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make
known the mystery of the gospel, 20 For which I am an ambassador in
bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. (KJV) All
these weapons of warfare are forces of spirit that are the products of
the word, and all these forces put together is known as the immortality,
which is also the product of the revealed word of God. 2Ti 1:10 But is
now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath
abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through
the gospel: (KJV) Yes immortality is manifested through deep revelation
that is understood, which is known as light because the entrance of the
word gives understanding, and generates internal light. 1Ti 6:16 Who
only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach
unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power
everlasting. Amen.(KJV) This has given credence to the insight which
indicates that the very life of God in the word is fired into the life
of everyone unto whom the word comes to, and they becomes a god in the
accordance to the revelation that has come to them. Joh 1:1 In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was
God.2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by
him; and without him was not anything made that was made.4 In him was
life; and the life was the light of men. (KJV) Joh 10:34 Jesus answered
them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? 35 If he
called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture
cannot be broken; (KJV) Eze 2:2 And the spirit entered into me when he
spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto
me.(KJV) Brethren!, Immortality is real and it is available through
the revelation of the word, Joh 10:34 Jesus answered them, Is it not
written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?35 If he called them gods, unto
whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;(KJV)) We
are a unique personality and we need to realize our immortal nature to
be able to fulfill our earthly mission in the midst of all manner of
challenges.1Pe 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood,
an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises
of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God:
which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. (KJV Re 5:8
And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty
elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and
golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints. 9 And they
sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open
the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by
thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on
the earth.11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round
about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them
was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;12
Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive
power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and
blessing. (KJV) By the touch of the forces of the spirit we have been
begotten into a royal priesthood, imparted with holiness of heaven and
with a peculiar characteristic, and we have been made kings and people
of nobility, endowed with the wealth of the nations, in order to reign,
as heavenly citizens even while on the earth, which means that we have
become a people of unusual nature, which is only possible with heavenly
citizenship. Everyone born into the kingdom was born by the forces of
the Spirit, Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I
say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of
God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old?
can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of
water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the
Spirit is spirit.7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born
again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound
thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so
is every one that is born of the Spirit. (KJV) In the kingdom everyone
that is birthed by the forces of the Spirit is also a spirit, and is as
the wind that cannot be caged, held in bondage, or even be in any form
of captivity, but he or she flows wherever he or she deems fit.
FORCES OF THE SPIRIT OF LOVE IN THE KINGDOM; Love
is a powerful force of the spirit which gives the kingdomite advantage
in any spiritual warfare, and separates the kingdom of God from any
other kingdom. And truly without love the kingdom of God is the same as
any other kingdom, but in reality there are not the same, because of the
identification of love, which was the reason that our Lord Jesus Christ
said the true identity that gives us a unique identity that is distinct
from any other persons is that we love one another. Joh 13:35 By this
shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to
another.(KJV) Our identity to the world around us is love, and not just
miracles, or exhibition of God given wealth, or whatever God has given
us. 1Jo 4:12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another,
God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. 13 Hereby know we
that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his
Spirit. 14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son
to be the Saviour of the world. 15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is
the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 16 And we have
known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he
that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our
love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment:
because as he is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love;
but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that
feareth is not made perfect in love.19 We love him, because he first
loved us. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a
liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he
love God whom he hath not seen?(KJV) You can see that, receiving
miracles is not the total proof that we are the sons of God, but the
real proof is that we exhibit divine love of God, because we have the
Spirit of God, and hating your brethren is a clear indication that we’re
either not saved or that we have lost our salvation. 1Jo 2:5 But whoso
keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby
know we that we are in him.(KJV) We are in God and God is us through His
Spirit as we walk in love because the Spirit of God is the Spirit of
love. Ro 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is
shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
(KJV)) By the forces
of the Spirit everyone in the kingdom is Loved by God through Jesus
Christ, Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but
have everlasting life. (KJV) Joh 13:34 A new commandment I give unto
you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love
one another.(KJV) Joh 15:9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved
you: continue ye in my love: 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall
abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and
abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy
might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my
commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.13 Greater
love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his
friends.14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. 15
Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his
lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have
heard of my Father I have made known unto you. 16 Ye have not chosen me,
but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring
forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall
ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.17 These things I
command you, that ye love one another. (KJV) It is the certainty,
awareness, and consciousness of the Christ love for us that generates
the conquerors mentality in the saints. Ro 8:32 He that spared not his
own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also
freely give us all things? 33 Who shall lay anything to the charge of
God's elect? It is God that justifieth.34 Who is he that condemneth? It
is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the
right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. 35 Who shall
separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or
persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is
written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted
as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than
conquerors through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that
neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor
things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any
other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which
is in Christ Jesus our Lord.(KJV) Our conquest in all battles of life
is as a result of the display of the forces of the spirit of love that
God displayed towards us through Jesus. Christ, therefore it is behooved
on us to manifest the same love one to another in order to remain
conquerors in any battle of life. 1Pe 3:13 And who is he that will harm
you, if ye be followers of that which is good?(KJV) It means that if
love is the greatest in the kingdom, and one obediently pursues love,
then it is a good thing, and nobody can hurt that one, we become a hurt
me not personality because you follow that which good, and the scripture
said that love is the best virtue to inherit in the kingdom of God.
1Co 13:13 But now we still have faith, hope, love, these three; and the
greatest of these is love.(BBE) Joh 16:27 For the Father himself loveth
you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from
God. (KJV) Joh 17:23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made
perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and
hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.(KJV) 1Jo 4:16 And we have known
and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that
dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.(KJV) Therefore to
manifest the forces of the spirit we must put on the consciousness of
love of Christ both towards the brethren and the people of the world.
INVINCIBILITY OF THE SAINTS BY THE FORCES OF SPIRIT;
In this
kingdom all the saints are hidden in the life of Christ by the forces of
the Spirit, so that they cannot be visible to the enemy, no matter
what they use to trace them. Col 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ,
seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right
hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the
earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4
When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear
with him in glory. (KJV) Ps 125:1 They that trust in the LORD shall be
as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. 2 As the
mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his
people from henceforth even forever.(KJV) And his glory is our defense.
Isa 4:4 When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the
daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the
midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.5
And the LORD will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and
upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a
flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defense (KJV)
HOW TO ACTIVATE THE FORCES OF THE SPIRIT BY THE MYSTERY OF THE ROD;
Our tongue is the
mysterious rod in the kingdom that is created by God for the control of
the forces of the spirit, that was the reason Prophet Moses was ordered
to speak to the rock which is the hardest object in the wilderness to
produce for them the softest thing which is water of life. Ex 17:4 And
Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people?
they be almost ready to stone me.5 And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on
before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy
rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine hand, and go. 6
Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou
shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the
people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7 And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of
the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the
LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not? (KJV) thou shalt smite the
rock Any where you notice the use of the tongue in the scriptures, this
word SMITE will always come into cognizance, “and he shall smite the
earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall
he slay the wicked.” “And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that
with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod
of iron:” Moses was instructed to use the rod to bring out water from
the rock, the same rod brought locust into the Egypt Ex 10:13 And Moses
stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an
east wind upon the land all that day, and all that night; and when it
was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.14 And the locusts went
up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt:
very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they,
neither after them shall be such. (KJV) The rod was used to divide the
red sea, by provoking the manifestation of the wind to part the water.
Ex 14:21 And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD
caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made
the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. (KJV) And again God
instructed Prophet Moses to speak to the rock, which is an indication
that our mouth is also our rod for the miraculous, and signs and
wonders, because our mouth controls the forces of the spirit, but when
Moses did something different, he paid for it with his life, Nu 20:1
Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the
desert of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and
Miriam died there, and was buried there. 2 And there was no water for
the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses
and against Aaron. 3 And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying,
Would God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD! 4
And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this
wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there? 5 And wherefore
have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil
place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of
pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink. 6 And Moses and Aaron
went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of
the LORD appeared unto them. 7 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 8
Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy
brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall
give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of
the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink. 9
And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.10 And
Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and
he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of
this rock? 11 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote
the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation
drank, and their beasts also. 12 And the LORD spake unto Moses and
Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the
children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into
the land which I have given them.(KJV) Elemental forces which is part
and parcel of the forces of the spirit also responds to the rod of the
mouth, Jos 10:12 Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD
delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in
the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon,
in the valley of Ajalon. 13 And the sun stood still, and the moon
stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is
not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the
midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. (KJV) In
the kingdom the power behind creation, victory, and whatever becomes of
every situation and circumstances is the forces of the Spirit which is
known as the spirit of the tongue, or the sword of the Spirit, Isa 11:3
And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and
he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after
the hearing of his ears: 4 But with righteousness shall he judge the
poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall
smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his
lips shall he slay the wicked. (KJV) Re 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth
a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall
rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the
fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. (KJV)) 2Th 2:8 And then shall
that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of
his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: (KJV))
Re 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth
went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth
in his strength. (KJV) The forces of the spirit can also be released
into action by use of our mouth, which is why God said that He will put
His word in our mouth so that we will plant the heavens on the earth. Lu
21:15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your
adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.(KJV) 2Co 4:13 We
having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed,
and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;(KJV)
The battle between David and Goliath was entirely a battle of words,
1Sa 17:32 And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of
him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine. 33 And Saul
said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight
with him: for thou art but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
34 And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and
there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock: 35 And I
went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth:
and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him,
and slew him. 36 Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this
uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied
the armies of the living God. 37 David said moreover, The LORD that
delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear,
he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said
unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee. 38 And Saul armed David with
his armour, and he put an helmet of brass upon his head; also he armed
him with a coat of mail. 39 And David girded his sword upon his armour,
and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto
Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put
them off him. 40 And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five
smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which
he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near
to the Philistine. 41 And the Philistine came on and drew near unto
David; and the man that bare the shield went before him. 42 And when the
Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was
but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance. 43 And the Philistine
said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And
the Philistine cursed David by his gods. 44 And the Philistine said to
David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air,
and to the beasts of the field. 45 Then said David to the Philistine,
Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but
I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies
of Israel, whom thou hast defied. 46 This day will the LORD deliver thee
into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee;
and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day
unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all
the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 47 And all this
assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for
the battle is the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands. 48 And it
came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew nigh to meet
David, that David hasted, and ran toward the army to meet the
Philistine. 49 And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a
stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the
stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. 50
So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone,
and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the
hand of David.51 Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and
took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him,
and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their
champion was dead, they fled.(KJV) The war between Goliath, and David
was a purely wars of the words. One rod against the other rod, and I
received this inspired word, a closed mouth is actually a closed
destiny, and again I discovered that you need to talk the enemy down, In
the kingdom of God, everything operates by the operation of the forces
of spirit. The peak of the force of the Spirit that you can enforce is
determined by the reach of your voice, and the sound of your word,
because the sounder your voice the healthier and the more sound you
live, just as you can determine how sick a person is by the sound of his
or her voice, that is how your sound is the parameter of your living
standard. 1Th 1:8 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only
in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward
is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak anything. (KJV) God is
very wise when He said that let the weak say that am strong, Joe 3:10
Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let
the weak say, I am strong. (KJV)) Plowshares and pruning hooks are
instruments of farming, and God said here that the weak should wake up
from their state of helplessness, and lying down position, and stand
strong with the pasture of war, by turning their instruments of farming
into instruments of warfare while declaring to the challenging
situations and circumstances that they are strong, which means that it
is not enough to declare that we strong, but we appear strong, and wear
the look of a victor rather than the look of a victim. Our look is very
important in the releasing of the forces of the spirit, it is not just
to declare that I cannot be poor, but you must look like a rich and
wealthy person, and it also not enough to declare that I cannot be sick,
or am healed, but you make every effort to stand your ground, no matter
what and how you feel, look healthy, smile comfortably and with
assurance, because hope makes no one to be put to shame. When you learn
to talk, you will learn to grow, because the greatest strength of our
Christian journey is the Christ in us, and nothing paralysis the hand of
God like the expression of unbelief with our spoken words, and most
importantly, the word is the livewire of every great destiny, for
