It\u2019s during the hours and<br>moments before they attack that they are reviewing all their training and going over it in their minds<br>repeatedly until their senses are sharpened to react according to their training, and not according to<br>fear. This is actually a form of meditation that keeps them sharp, prepared, and able to operate at the highest level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One would argue that warfare tactics and life strategies are not always compatible due to the intensity of<br>war. I would disagree, especially if you could see into the spirit realm and look at the demonic forces<br>arrayed against you. Many Christians head into their daily life and routine like a soldier who is going<br>into battle blind. At least that soldier is on the offensive. That alone, gives them a tactical advantage.<br>Too many in the Body of Christ are usually on the defensive. They are unprepared, lacking knowledge of<br>the power of God, the weapons of their warfare, and the tools God has given them to overcome sin,<br>sickness, demons and fear! And let\u2019s not forget about overcoming tests, trails and temptations.<br>David said, in the above verse, he would meditate on all of God\u2019s works and consider His mighty deeds.<br>In the New Testament WE are\u00a0His workmanship, and, as such we should consider the unlimited<br>abilities of the new creation and the mighty deeds we have been equipped for. Let\u2019s meditate on who we<br>are, what we can do, what we have, and where we are seated in Christ. Let\u2019s renew our minds to the new<br>creation realities that are ours in Christ, that we are ambassadors for Christ, having diplomatic<br>immunity so we can now go on the offensive to the extent that the gates of hell will fall, and people will<br>be saved and set free; that we are strong in the Lord and in the power of His might! And, as we choose<br>to believe the Word and advance the Kingdom of God in the earth, we will receive revelation knowledge of how to operate at our highest level in the power of God!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Body of Christ, we don\u2019t have go into anything blind. Jesus said, \u201cI Am the Light of the world. He<br>who follows Me will not walk in darkness, but he shall have the light of life.\u201d We\u2019re not fighting FOR<br>victory \u2013 we fight FROM victory! We are the Light of the world! Light always overcomes the darkness!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So\u2026 what are you meditating on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Love,<br>Pastor Tom<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-5e5614b296ee5096aae70bf428e478fc\">Kingdom Business is Eternal, as are the rewards that come from God.
