This morning, heading to one of my coffee spots... I heard the Lord ask me, "Do you know who the devil fears the most?" .. to which I quickly heard Him answer, "The spiritually violent." - At that moment I discerned a spiritual cloud across the city that was a type of 'witchcraft' meant to pacify and neutralize the fire of the saints.
This begs the question what denotes 'spiritual violence'? A couple thoughts of my own: 'spiritual violence' is not 'natural violence'. Having a demonstrative personality, loud voice, angry attitude, or physical ability to fight are not 'virtues of spiritual violence'. Maybe the most simple explanation of the spiritually violent was given in Matthew 11:12 -"And from the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of the heavens is taken by violence and the violent seize it."
The spiritually violent are actively seizing the Kingdom of Heaven here on the earth! The spiritually violent don't just allow Earth's 'circumstances' to remain unchallenged. They seize upon the Kingdom of Heaven for its atmosphere, its glory, and most importantly for the verdicts of heaven's King.
May this be an encouragement to you today if you find the fire of God in you being pacified, quenched and neutralized... Go freak the devil out, by seizing upon the kingdom of Heaven in Jesus name for every situation and circumstance in your life!
