Learn To Fight From Heaven!

“They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera” (Judges 5:19-20).

The verse above is part of a beautiful account in the Bible of a time when the children of Israel were being oppressed by the king of Canaan (Judges 4:2). Deborah, who was the prophetess and judge of Israel at the time sent for a man called Barak and prophesied to him that God would use him to deliver Israel (Judges 4:6-7).

In the ensuing battle, the Bible says “… the LORD discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera lighted down off his chariot, and fled away on his feet” (Judges 4:15). Though Sisera didn’t know it, he was fighting more than just the men that comprised the army of Israel; the angels and even the very stars in heaven were also fighting on Israel’s behalf.

When you’re faced with opposition, don’t fight from this earthly realm—learn to fight from heaven. Let’s imagine there’s someone threatening your job at work because you’re born again. Rather than cry “O, God, why me?” or try to lobby some powerful people to plead for your job, you ought to get home, lock yourself in your room and begin to speak in tongues violently, directing your mind towards the one opposing you.

As you do this, angels will be mobilized, and circumstances will be shifted for your sake. Things will be rearranged in your favour. No wonder the Bible says “…all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). This is the reason I always say that as a child of God, you can never be disadvantaged. There’s no need for dejection, sadness or despair, for nothing and no one can successfully stand against you when you learn to fight from heaven.

When you know how to fight from heaven, you’ll never lean on the arm of flesh, for you know that your help comes from the Lord of heaven and earth! He has commanded everything that exists— living and non-living to work together for your good.

Prayer

Dear Father, thank you for teaching me today how to fight from heaven! I refuse to rely on human ability or might, but rather on the power of the Holy Ghost that’s been made available to me. As I speak in other tongues, my angels are mobilized to move on my behalf and put my adversaries to flight, in the Name of Jesus. Amen.
