More and More I have come in contact with people of God not knowing their legal rights as Christians. Many of our churches fail to teach on the authority we have in Christ. So what we get on Sunday is 2-3 hours of bible stories with no practical application. We get our shout on, and we become happy by the Moans and the excitement of the piano; as we dance our self-happy. To much regret, that "feeling" do not last long and we find ourselves still weighed down by lack of finances, spouse and children living ungodly lives and suffering from poor health.
We may play church. But the enemy is not playing. We must not be ignorant of his devices/tactics. We as Christians must renew our mind by studying the word of God. This must be the daily diet for a Christian. Unless our minds become renewed we want conquer. The word of God says we are more than conquerors. The Greek word for Conqueror is "Hoopernikaeo". (Romans 8:37). It means we win big! We don't just scarcely win.
So I admonish you today to open up the word of God, meditate on the word day and night (Psalm 1:2). To meditate means to speak loudly. Let it be a part of your conversation. When the enemy comes and say "you will not make it. You will not be bless, you want be victorious." Begin speaking the word of God loudly. "I am blessed in the city and blessed in the field..." (Deuteronomy 28:3-14). When the enemy hears the word of God, he must back off. Learn how to demolish every stronghold with the word of God. Study the book of Ephesians and learn what rights you have in heavenly places.
Read the word to understand the Authority we have in Jesus Name. (Matt 16:19). Keys represent your authority. Take a moment to think about your physical set of keys, if you have one. What is one it? My own key ring includes a house key, car key and office keys. The keys in your possession represent a right and privilege that you have. They enable you to enter through a doorway, into a secure area that others cannot go through. Your keys represent your ownership, your authority, and your right of access.
The Authority of Jesus name is recognized in the spiritual realm. Heaven is on alert to hear the Name of Jesus. When Heaven hears our prayers according to his WILL, and we seal it in the authority of Jesus Name. Immediately heaven begins to work on your behalf.
God has not forgotten you. He loves you. But you must love this word to get your deliverance and keep your victory.
The Lord says today “It’s time to change your prison clothes”. Some of us have been going through lots of adversities. Some of it has been to our own doing and some have not. But the Lord says whatever the case that which seek to hold your bondage (mind, body, spirit, finances, relationships, and career) is no longer. The enemy has tried to imprison your thoughts that there is no hope. He has imprisoned you to believe you will never be healed, never prosper, never get promotion, and never have enough. The enemy has come in the form of supervisors, bosses to make you believe that they are in control of your finances. The Lord says, “Today it stops”. The spiritual bullying stops today! “God says today “I will remove any antagonizer, man, woman, business that try to conform you, hinder you, put you in a box, stop your growth or attempt to spiritually imprison you.” God says again, “they will be removed. The Lord says “Your release will supernaturally happen not in a few months, or years but expect it to happen in a few days! “God will get the Glory out of this!
If we were to study King Jehoiachin’s reign of Judah, you would see he didn’t reign long. It is said that he may have reigned 3 months and a few days prior to King Nebuchadnezzar capturing him. It is told that he was captured at the age of 18 years old and was imprisoned for 37 years because of the sin of Judah, and his father. But what a miraculous surprise now at age 55 years old, He is told he will be released. Although imprisoned for 37 years, God had never forgotten him. King Jehoiachin most likely had fail to recall what it felt like to be king or royalty. He forgot what it meant to wear royal clothing, and to have prepared royal food, and to be in the presence of noble people. The lush lifestyle he once had was a far distant memory, only a dream. I’m sure looking at his situation, he was imprisoned by the same routine, the same clothing that he wore day after day. The imprisoned clothes were a constant reminder of his dismal future. His life as a prisoner had taken his identity, cause him to conform to the norm of prison-hood. He was no longer thought of as a person but downgraded to only a number. Jehoiachin was born to be king, a man of power and authority and yet, because of the sins of his people, he was taken into exile, put in prison, to be forgotten by all. This King born to make decisions now is told when to eat, drink and sleep; made to do manual labor. But it is just like God to show mercy to us even when unworthy. I’m sure King Jehoiachin had lots of time to review his life, the actions of his father and the life of the people. I believed he may have repented for that which was done evil in the sight of God.
After 37 years, God supernaturally release him from prison. God reminds us that he can step into any situation, and within a Planck time (shortest theoretically measurable time), microsecond (one millionth of a second), nanosecond (one billionth of a second) changed your life instantaneously! So Never Give UP! Hang on in their help is on its way. “Change” is about to happen. A transition is about to take place. Old things will be done away, and behold new things are coming! King Nebuchadnezzar, who had imprisoned him was removed, now deceased. The word says that the new Babylon King spoke kindly to King Jehoiachin and had supernatural favor with him and set his throne over the thrones of the other exile kings. It goes on to say that once released, Jehoiachin “changed” his prison clothes! And for the rest of his life ate regularly at the king’s table.
God says where you were a year ago, month ago, where you are now is not where you will be for the rest of your life. It is only for a set time, before I release you of that which sought to bind you. Deuteronomy 28:7 says “The Lord will cause the enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you. They will march out against you in one direction but free from you in seven.
The Lord says, “I will show supernatural favor, kindness to you and where I am taking you, the old garments, mindset, cannot be taken there.” God says “today get rid of the imprisoned thoughts, and behaviors that does not represent me. Change your mindset, begin to take your rightful place as Sons and Daughters at the Kings table. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Say Today “I’m Release. No chains holding me. Today I change my imprisoned garments for my royal garments. Taking my rightful place at the kings Table for the Rest of my of My Life!” Everything I need is for my asking. Again, I’m no longer bound, I’m Free in Jesus Name!
