The Lord
is saying...Keep going forward you still have much ground
to claim, do not flinch back or become discouraged. You will
gain and recover all if you keep going forward.
And
David enquired at the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this
troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue:
for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover
all.

Samuel 30:8
Many
years ago the Lord showed me that in the scripture of John
chapter 10, He promised that He came to give us life and life
in all of its fullness and that this means victory in everything.
Now
thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in
Christ....2 Corinthians 2:14
Just
like Joshua had a strategy to bring down the walls of Jericho,
so the Holy Spirit will give us a strategy to lead us into
victory. What would have happened if the Israelites had not
marched round the walls? For
six days these men walked around one time and on the seventh
day they walked aroud them SEVEN TIMES and they sounded the
trumpets. Once the trumpets sounded and the men yelled the
Walls came crashing down!! (The story can be found in the
bible: Joshua 6:1-20)
In my experience
the Lord usually has had me to follow Him and pray in the
Spirit, to come into a place where His victory is seen in
my circumstances.
The Holy
Spirit is always praying. When we use our mouths to pray in
the Spirit we are just stepping into the flow of that continual
prayer. The wonderful thing is that perfect prayer is being
spoken through us and bringing about into our's and other's
circumstances God's answer to our problems. We make ourselves
a channel for that River of life to pour out and bring the
Kingdom of God onto the earth.
He
that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his
belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he
of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive:
for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was
not yet glorified.) (JOH 7:38-39)
