RULING AND REIGNING WITH\r\nGOD<\/span><\/b><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Part 3<\/span><\/b><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

August\r\n14, 2020<\/span><\/b><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

We are really going to\r\ntake a different direction today,<\/span> and possibly next\r\nweek as well.\u00a0 <\/span>I want to talk today about\r\nhow we access the authority of heaven and take the rulership<\/span>\r\nover ourselves, events that take place in our lives, events that take place\r\nwith friends, and events that occur in this country and around the world.<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Let\u2019s begin today with\r\nsome scriptures that lay the foundation for our discussion.<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

I Kings 8:64<\/span><\/u><\/b>: <\/span><\/b>The\r\nsame day did the king hallow the middle of the court that was<\/i> before the\r\nhouse of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and meat offerings,\r\nand the fat of the peace offerings: because the brazen altar that was<\/i>\r\nbefore the LORD was<\/i> too little to receive the burnt offerings, and meat\r\nofferings, and the fat of the peace offerings.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

II Chronicles 6:13-17<\/span><\/u><\/b>:\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>For Solomon had made a\r\nbrazen scaffold, of five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits\r\nhigh, and had set it in the midst of the court: and upon it he stood, and\r\nkneeled down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and spread\r\nforth his hands toward heaven, And said, O LORD God of Israel, there is<\/i>\r\nno God like thee in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest<\/span>\r\ncovenant, and showest<\/i><\/span> mercy unto thy servants,\r\nthat walk before thee with all their hearts:\u00a0\r\n<\/span>Thou which hast kept with thy servant David my father that which thou\r\nhast promised him; and spakest<\/span> with thy mouth, and\r\nhast fulfilled it<\/i> with thine<\/span> hand, as it is<\/i>\r\nthis day. <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Now\r\ntherefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that\r\nwhich thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my\r\nsight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to\r\ntheir way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me. Now then, O LORD\r\nGod of Israel, let thy word be verified, which thou hast spoken unto thy\r\nservant David.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

I hope that you are\r\nseeing a fundamental principle in these scriptures.\u00a0 <\/span>In these first two examples, we see Solomon\r\nreverencing the court of the Lord.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

In the first case,\r\nbefore he makes any request of the Lord, he offers up burt<\/span><\/span> offerings to the Lord.\u00a0 <\/span>In the second instance, he builds a scaffold\r\n\u2014 an elevated place where he kneels before the Lord in reverence and reminds God\r\nof the Covenant He had made with David and petitions the Lord to bring that\r\nCovenant into force and manifestation before the House of Israel.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

And we continue.\u00a0 <\/span>Watch what unfolds. <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

II Chronicles 20:5-12<\/span><\/u><\/b>:\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>And Jehoshaphat stood in\r\nthe congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD, before the\r\nnew court,\u00a0 <\/span>And said, O LORD God of our\r\nfathers, art<\/i> not thou God in heaven? and<\/span> rulest<\/span> not<\/i> thou over all the kingdoms of the\r\nheathen? and<\/span> in thine<\/span> hand is\r\nthere not<\/i> power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee?\u00a0 <\/span>Art<\/i> not thou our God, who<\/i> didst\r\ndrive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest<\/span> it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever<\/span>? <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

And\r\nthey dwelt therein, and have built thee a sanctuary therein for thy name,\r\nsaying, If, when<\/i> evil cometh upon us, as<\/i> the sword, judgment, or\r\npestilence, or famine, we stand before this house, and in thy presence, (for\r\nthy name is<\/i> in this house,) and cry unto thee in our affliction, then\r\nthou wilt hear and help. <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

And\r\nnow, behold, the children of Ammon<\/span> and Moab and mount\r\nSeir<\/span>, whom thou wouldest<\/span>\r\nnot let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned\r\nfrom them, and destroyed them not; Behold, I say, how<\/i> they reward us, to\r\ncome to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit. O\r\nour God, wilt thou not judge them? for<\/span> we have no\r\nmight against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what\r\nto do: but our eyes are<\/i> upon thee.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

In\u00a0 <\/span>this particular example, Jehoshaphat comes\r\nbefore the Lord in a crisis situation and stands in the court of the Lord\r\nasking for a judicial sentence to be brought against the enemies of God\u2019s\r\npeople.\u00a0 <\/span>He realizes it isn\u2019t in his\r\npower to accomplish and pleads for what amounts to both a restraining order and\r\nfinal judgement<\/span> in order to bring certain action that\r\nwill deliver them.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Now the examples\r\nchange in nature.\u00a0 <\/span>Now we are talking\r\nabout the boldness with which we can come into the court of the Lord.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Esther 5:2-3<\/span><\/u><\/b>:\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>And it was so, when the\r\nking saw Esther the queen standing in the court, that<\/i> she obtained favour<\/span> in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the\r\ngolden sceptre<\/span> that was<\/i> in his hand. So Esther\r\ndrew near, and touched the top of the sceptre<\/span>. Then\r\nsaid the king unto her, What<\/span> wilt thou, queen Esther? and<\/span> what is<\/i> thy request? it<\/span>\r\nshall be even given thee to the half of the kingdom.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

We will look at a few\r\nmore examples of our instruction in the Word to come into the presence of the\r\nLord with boldness, but take a minute to consider relationship \u2014 the love\r\nrelationship \u2014 and the desire David expresses toward being in the presence of\r\nthe Lord.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Psalm 65:4<\/span><\/u><\/b>: <\/span><\/b>Blessed\r\nis the man whom<\/i> thou choosest<\/span>, and causest<\/span> to approach unto thee, that<\/i> he may dwell in\r\nthy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even<\/i>\r\nof thy holy temple.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Psalm 84:2<\/span><\/u><\/b>: <\/span><\/b>My soul\r\nlongeth<\/span>, yea, even fainteth<\/span>\r\nfor the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth<\/span>\r\nout for the living God.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Psalm 100<\/span><\/u><\/b>:4<\/u>: <\/span><\/b>Enter\r\ninto his gates with thanksgiving, and<\/i> into his courts with praise: be\r\nthankful unto him, and<\/i> bless his name.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

We return again to\r\nthe principle of coming into the Courts with absolute boldness before the Lord\r\nwith our petitions and the absolute certainty that we will receive the grace to\r\nfulfil<\/span> that which we request.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

A side note,\r\nhere.\u00a0 <\/span>Grace is not something mystical or\r\nephemeral.\u00a0 <\/span>It is not just the pleasure\r\nof the Lord towards us.\u00a0 <\/span>In every\r\ninstance where we see grace being given, it is nothing more and nothing less\r\nthan the empowerment and the authority to accomplish the will of God.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Hebrews 4:16<\/span><\/u><\/b>: <\/span><\/b>Let us\r\ntherefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that<\/span>\r\nwe may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Do you see it?\u00a0 <\/span>The grace of God is freely given to us when\r\nwe come into the courts of the Lord.\u00a0 <\/span>We\r\nwill exmplore<\/span> this in greater detail shortly.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Hebrews 10:19-22<\/span><\/u><\/b>: <\/span><\/b>Having\r\ntherefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,\r\nBy a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil,\r\nthat is to say, his flesh; And having<\/i> an high priest over the house of\r\nGod; <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Let us\r\ndraw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts\r\nsprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

There is no arrogance\r\nin the way we come before the Lord.\u00a0 <\/span>The\r\nprinciple embodied in what Paul is showing us is that if there is any area in\r\nour life that we know may not measure up to the standards of the Word, we first\r\nneed to \u201csprinkle our hearts\u201d with repentance and humility.\u00a0 <\/span>Once that is accomplished, there is no\r\nremaining impediment to coming boldly before the Lord to request His issuance\r\nof a restraining order and final judgment against whatever the Enemy has either\r\ndone, or intends against us.\u00a0 <\/span>Where there\r\nis fear or doubt of any kind, it is impossible for faith to exist.\u00a0 <\/span>Fear and faith are incompatible.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Ephesians 3:11-12<\/span><\/u><\/b>: <\/span><\/b>According\r\nto the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: In whom we\r\nhave boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Let\u2019s look at some\r\npractical, \u201ctoday\u201d applications for the restraining orders.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Most of you already\r\nknow about the attack on my health and physical well being that occurred\r\nrecently.\u00a0 <\/span>It started with fever, sweats,\r\nchills, and grew into a royal incident of the flu.\u00a0 <\/span>That was compounded with pneumonia and\r\nsomething we\u2019d never heard of before: Bird Fancier\u2019s Lung Disease.\u00a0 <\/span>That triggered atrial<\/span>\r\nfibrillation with my heart and cause my pulse to literally run away.\u00a0 <\/span>When my pulse rate reached 180, I collapsed\r\ninto unconsciousness.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Della immediately\r\ncalled for an ambulance and I was rushed to the ER at Baylor Scott White\r\nHospital in Temple.\u00a0 <\/span>When I awoke in the\r\nER, my first reaction was, \u201cWhere am<\/span> it?\u00a0 <\/span>How did I get here?\u201d\u00a0 <\/span>After some initial diagnoses, I was put into\r\nan Intensive Care Unit, where I spent three days before being transferred to an\r\nisolation ward.\u00a0 <\/span>I spent eight days in\r\nthat isolation ward while the doctors and nurses tried to figure out what all\r\nthe issues were.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

On the fourth day of\r\nbeing in isolation, Della had been listening to Dr. Francis Myles being\r\ninterviewed on Sid Roth\u2019s program, and the revelations he was sharing\r\nconcerning the issuance of restraining orders.\u00a0\r\n<\/span>Della shared this principle with me, and together we went into the\r\nCourts of Heaven to request a restraining order against the Enemy and his\r\ncontinual attacks on my well-being.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The following day,\r\nwhat I understood to be an angel of the Lord (dressed as a nurse) came into my\r\nroom and after some brief conversation, said she had a Word for me from the\r\nLord.\u00a0 <\/span>I told her to \u201cSay on!\u201d<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The Word she\r\ndelivered was a direct response to our prayer the day before as we asked the\r\nLord to issue a restraining order against the Enemy.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

She said, \u201cThe Word\r\nof the Lord to you is, THJIS IS FINISHED!\u201d\u00a0\r\n<\/span>She then turned around and left my room.\u00a0\r\n<\/span>Three days later (after a visit with the cardiologist and a cardioversion<\/span>) I was released from the Hospital.\u00a0 <\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The doctors had\r\ndiscovered a pair of bacterial infections and a virus they couldn\u2019t identify at\r\nthe time, but said I had recovered sufficiently that there was no need for me\r\nto remain in the hospital.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

A week later, the\r\nPulmonologist called me and asked me to come to his office.\u00a0 <\/span>H told me that between the two bacterial\r\ninfections and the virus, any one of them could have killed me.\u00a0 <\/span>The fact that they didn\u2019t was the result of\r\nthe restraining order against the Enemy that the Lord issued from His court.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

I asked the doctor\r\nwhat the virus was.\u00a0 <\/span>He said, \u201cYou were\r\ninfected with a close cousin of the Coronavirus<\/span>.\u00a0 <\/span>Your recovery from it is nothing but\r\nmiraculous.\u201d<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The doctor was a\r\nChristian, and we both rejoiced in what the Lord had done.\u00a0 <\/span>Indeed, my strength, my energy, and my\r\nstamina have bounced back so that except for the doctor\u2019s orders for me to not\r\nresume my normal daily activities for four-to-six weeks (almost three weeks\r\nhave passed already at this writing) I continue to work from my home to help\r\nour clients and to rejoice in the presence of the Lord.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

A couple days ago,\r\nDella and I were talking about the impact of the restraining orders, and\r\nrealized that one more thing was essential: the issuance of a final decree of\r\njudgment against the Enemy, and an order issued such that he can never attack\r\nmy health or physical well-being in any way from henceforth.\u00a0 <\/span>We made it a point to get together and go\r\nbefore the Lord again as the Judge and request a final decree of judgment\r\nagainst Satan and his efforts to kill me, or at least render me incapable of\r\nfulfilling the destiny that God has laid out.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The Lord made\r\nspecific promises to me when I was seven years of age.\u00a0 <\/span>He confirmed those promises two years later\r\nwhen He took me to Heaven.\u00a0 <\/span>He added to\r\nand expanded those promises a year later when He took me to Heaven for the\r\nsecond time.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Then He took me in\r\nthe Spirit in 1996 on a three-month+ set of trips into the past and into the\r\nfuture to show me the unfolding of that Destiny.\u00a0 <\/span>Throughout the years, there have been various\r\nattacks on my life, and attacks on my health.\u00a0\r\n<\/span>Della commented that the attacks have been non-stop during the past\r\nthree-plus years, to the place where it has been literally exhausting \u2014 for her\r\nespecially because of her instructions from the Lord.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Hence the timely\r\nrevelation of our necessity of accessing the Courts of Heaven and the necessity\r\nof requesting God\u2019s judicial restraining orders agains<\/span>\r\nSatan!<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0 <\/span>Are you seeing the parallel between our\r\nmodern court system and how it has been modeled after the judicial system in\r\nHeaven?\u00a0 <\/span>Do you see the parallel in how\r\nand why we have been instructed to come boldly before the Lord with our\r\nrequests, and the necessity of utilizing the authority made available to us\r\nthrough God\u2019s justice and the ruling and reigning<\/span> that\r\ntakes place in a practical dimension as we access the Courts of Heaven?<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

This isn\u2019t theory,\r\nfolks!\u00a0 <\/span>This isn\u2019t fanciful or\r\nimaginary!\u00a0 <\/span>This is real!\u00a0 <\/span>And this is why so many of the body of Christ\r\n\u2014 us included \u2014 fail to see the results we ask for when we pray.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

We are not praying on\r\ntarget!\u00a0 <\/span>We are not utilizing the access\r\nwe have with God as our final authority and His implementation of restraining\r\norders, or decrees of judgment against the multitude of ways in which our lives\r\nare interfered with in order to prevent our fulfilling the destinies that God\r\nhas prepared.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

We will come back to\r\nmore practical applications momentarily. But let\u2019s consider the Master pattern\r\n\u2014THE ONE whom we pattern ourselves after.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Ephesians 1:15-23<\/span><\/u><\/b>:\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>Wherefore I also, after I\r\nheard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, Cease not\r\nto give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; That the God of\r\nour Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of\r\nwisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The\r\neyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope\r\nof his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the\r\nsaints,\u00a0 <\/span>And what is<\/i> the exceeding\r\ngreatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his\r\nmighty power, <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Which\r\nhe wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him<\/i> at\r\nhis own right hand in the heavenly places<\/i>, Far above all principality,\r\nand power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in\r\nthis world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things<\/i>\r\nunder his feet, and gave him to be<\/i> the head over all things<\/i> to\r\nthe church, Which is his body, the fulness<\/span> of him\r\nthat filleth<\/span> all in all.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Are you seeing\r\nit?\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>\u201c<\/span><\/b>And\r\nwhat is<\/i> the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according\r\nto the working of his mighty power,\u201d<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Matthew 28:18-19<\/span><\/u><\/b>:\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>And Jesus came and spake<\/span> unto them, saying, All<\/u><\/span>\r\npower is given unto me in heaven and in earth. <\/u>Go ye therefore, and teach\r\nall nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of\r\nthe Holy Ghost: <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Are you seeing\r\nit?\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/b>\u201c<\/span><\/b>All\r\npower is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye<\/span>\r\ntherefore<\/span><\/u>.\u201d<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/span>Once again: \u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span>That\r\nthe God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the\r\nspirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:\u201d<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

IF we have a true\r\nrevelation of WHO<\/i><\/b><\/span> and WHAT <\/i><\/b>Jesus\r\nis, that revelation is transformative!\u00a0\r\n<\/span>It alters permanently the way we interact with Him.\u00a0 <\/span>It is the beginning place of real\r\nrelationship with Jesus Christ.\u00a0 <\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

And it is in that\r\nplace of a love relationship with Him that we begin to understand our standing\r\nwith Him \u2014 not only as our advocate with God the Father \u2014 but also the place of\r\nauthority we have to present ourselves with our requests for restraining orders\r\nagainst the works of the Enemy.\u00a0 <\/span>Without\r\nthat place of a true love-relationship with the Lord, our interaction with Him\r\nis in timidity.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

This is a different\r\nstudy that we will probably take up next week, but consider the pattern of\r\njudges that we have here in the U.S.\u00a0 <\/span>We\r\nhave the Supreme Court as the final authority.\u00a0\r\n<\/span>We have Appellate courts.\u00a0 <\/span>Then we\r\nhave the Federal Judiciary.\u00a0 <\/span>You see the\r\nthree levels of judges?<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Now, consider the\r\nlevel of authority that resides in us.\u00a0 <\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u201cAnd\r\nwhat is<\/i> the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe,\r\naccording to the working of his mighty power, <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u201cWhich\r\nhe wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him<\/i> at\r\nhis own right hand in the heavenly places<\/i>, Far above all\r\nprincipality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named,\r\nnot only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things<\/i>\r\nunder his feet, and gave him to be<\/i> the head over all things<\/i> to\r\nthe church, Which is his body, the fulness<\/span> of him\r\nthat filleth<\/span> all in all<\/u>.\u201d<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

We\u2019ve been destined\r\nto become more than plaintiffs in the Courts of Heaven.\u00a0 <\/span>We\u2019ve been destined to become judges.\u00a0 <\/span>But that cannot happen when our relationship\r\nwith the Lord is contaminated.\u00a0 <\/span>Consider\r\nthis a tidbit for what is to come.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Lots more to come!<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
