A few months ago, Holy Spirit began to impress upon my spirit..."Prayer." I have not experienced His leading me towards prayer as He has been doing lately. Simultaneously, it seems that He has decreased the "number" of things I was doing..narrowing my focus..and this shows me that it is very important right now..I do pray, but I confess that I have not been "intentional" enough about it.
He also has been bringing into my mind, that I need to get "my arrows" out.
One morning, a few weeks ago, while spending time in worshiping Him, Holy Spirit began to unfold to me, what I have come to believe, is the way He wants us to pray and intercede "IN THE LAND" that He has placed us in!
As I was worshiping, He impressed upon me that to "Take the Land..I needed to "Stand on the Land"..to declare the land, the spot, the place that is mine, given to me by Him...that I was to establish it in the Authority of Him, for He dwells in me and with me!
Some time ago He gave me the acrostics for STAND:
S- Steadfastly
T- Taking
A- Authority
N- Never
D- Defeated
He then led me to turn from the North, then the South, the East and the West..and as I continued to turn, to begin to look out from where I am established and take more of the land as I go.
The land consists of neighbors, my family, friends, my church, whatever my "Vision" encompasses.
As I kept turning in a circle looking in every direction..N,E,S,W..I began to:
"SEE the SHAPE of a "TARGET".I remember saying.."BULLS-EYE".
I clearly heard Holy Spirit say:
"CREATE A TARGET..CREATE FOR ME A TARGET."
"He told me to make "people" your target..not the enemy..He told me that He is warring in the heavens for us..we need to war on earth."
I also understood that by creating a target for Him,that we are asking Holy Spirit to partner with us in seeking the answer to our prayers.
I began to sing:
LET YOUR GLORY GO OUT IN THE PLACE I VIEW!
LET YOUR GLORY GO OUT IN THE PLACE I VIEW!
REFRESH..RESTORE..MAKE NEW..MAKE NEW!
LET YOUR GLORY GO OUT IN THE PLACE I VIEW!
He led me to know that I was to send out arrows of: Love, Hope, Encouragement, Truth,
Life,Break off the chains that bind, Send Words to heal hurts. I believe that we can use
the following as a guide to keep our hearts in the right place:
Philippians 4:8 (amplified)
For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things (fix your minds on them).
We are to use: "Friendly Fire." Declare the goodness of the lord in the Land of the living!
Psalm 27:13 (amplified)
(What, what would have become of me) had I not believed that I would see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living!
Holy Spirit also impressed upon me that not only do we need to STAND on the Land, we need to DANCE and SING..Over the Land."
Once again, I started singing:
God, This Land is Your land
God, This Land is my land...
From California to the New York Islands
From the Redwood Forest
To the Gulf Stream Waters
This Land was meant for You and me!
It just so happens that we have just entered into the month in which we send "Arrows of Love" to those who are special to us.
I believe God is saying:
"It is time to "To enlarge the Target of our Influence." Lord, let Your Glory go out into all the places we view!
Love and blessings,
In Jesus Name,
Drema
