Paragraph 1: A Call to Divine Pursuit and Bold Action
This month, we are called to abandon reliance on human strength and embrace divine guidance through prayer. Like David, who inquired of the Lord before pursuing his enemies, we too must seek God’s direction before engaging in our battles. The Lord’s command is clear: "Pursue, for thou shalt surely overtake them and without fail recover all." This is not a time for passivity or observation; we are called to be active participants, boldly stepping into new territories and pursuing our dreams with unwavering faith. Our abilities and inabilities are irrelevant; the divine Commander has issued the order to advance, assuring us of victory and the attainment of our goals.
Paragraph 2: Engaging in Spiritual Warfare and Overcoming Fear
The daughter of Zion is no longer to be intimidated by the Goliaths that threaten her. This month, fear must be banished, and faith in Christ Jesus embraced as we step forward. The angel of the Lord will fight on our behalf, scattering our pursuers and empowering us to overcome all obstacles. This requires consistent and fervent midnight prayers, leveraging the spiritual power available to us as children of God. We must awaken from spiritual slumber and intercede for ourselves, our families, our ministries, our churches, our countries, and our spouses. By confronting our enemies in the midnight hour of prayer, we activate divine power, causing them to flee from our presence.
Paragraph 3: Persistence, Resilience, and Renewed Efforts
This is the hour to re-engage, to try again, and to expect fruitfulness. Discouragement and defeat must be rejected. Past failures should not deter us from resubmitting applications, continuing to seek, knock, and ask until doors open. Even when weariness sets in and tangible results seem elusive, we must heed Christ’s call to "throw your net again," to venture into deeper waters, and to cast our nets for a catch. Regardless of past rejections or the appearance of standstills, we must persist, propose again, and make another effort, confident that victory will ultimately crown our endeavors.
Paragraph 4: Divine Protection, Vindication, and Assurance of Victory
We are assured that wickedness will not prevail. The Lord himself has taken up our defense, wielding his shield and buckler against our enemies. He will halt the attacks and persecutions that have plagued us, vindicating us and ensuring our triumph. The personal attacks, enchantments, and feelings of isolation will cease, for God stands beside us, affirming himself as our salvation, healer, deliverer, redeemer, and sufficiency. We are called to open our spiritual eyes and perceive the divine intervention that is unfolding on our behalf, confident that the hunter and accuser of the brethren will themselves be hunted.
Paragraph 5: Praying for Right Motives and Divine Intervention
The year 2025 is declared as the year for our stars to rise and for the world to take notice. However, we must examine our motives when we approach God in prayer, ensuring that our requests are not driven by selfish desires or lusts. We are reminded of the powerful words of Psalm 35: "Who is like unto thee, which deliverest the poor from him that is too strong for him, yea, the poor and the needy from him that spoileth him?" This verse serves as both a prayer and a declaration of God’s power to deliver and vindicate his people. It is a promise of divine intervention on behalf of those who are oppressed and exploited.
Paragraph 6: Scriptural Basis and Contact Information
The message’s scriptural foundation rests upon 1 Samuel 30:8, where David inquires of the Lord before pursuing his enemies; Luke 5:4-6, where Jesus instructs his disciples to cast their nets again for a catch; Psalm 35:2 & 10, which expresses trust in God’s deliverance from enemies and persecutors; and James 4:3, which cautions against praying with wrong motives. This divinely inspired message of hope and encouragement, revealed through the authority of Christ Jesus, is conveyed by God’s Vessel Francis Ameyibor. Contact information is provided for those seeking further connection or guidance.
