We are walking in today: Yahweh Answers Your Question--Why Am I In A Continuous Battle?
Witness the rock throughout the Bible: H6697 tsuwr rock, cliff, rocky wall, block of stone, boulder
Exodus 33:21; Deuteronomy 32:4, 32:8, 32:31; Isaiah 17:10, 30:29, 44:8; Psalm 18:3, 18:17; Romans 9:33; 1 Corinthians 10:4
This morning Fiveamprayer, we are looking at the twelfth chapter of Revelation, we find out why there is a continuous battle. In the imagery used here there has been many debates on who the woman represents. This is a great example of why we must read chapters in their entirety to grasp the full context of what is being said. As Yahweh gives us progressive revelation we find that the woman often thought to be the church is not fitting with the entire chapter of Revelation 12. The main point why the woman could not be the church is that she bears a man-child who is Yeshua. How can that be when Yeshua came before the church? The woman is Israel and her flight to safety
from the red dragon, we can see is hasatan, himself. From the time of his fall from heaven until now, he has been accusing those who seek to remain in His good and right way. The messengers that fight with the fallen messengers who choose to join ranks with the delusions of the devil are outnumbered 2 to 1. With both Michael and hasatan being archangels are of equal rank and power but after the fall from heaven, not of equal authority. That is the real question that comes to light. While there is much focus on power but what does that compare to authority? For power lacking authority is not as powerful! Nor can as much be accomplished. A vehicle needs fuel to power the mechanisms to move yet it there is not authority to do so, like a key than the fuel does not permit lawful motion. Sure you can cause motion in the car without the key but that is an unauthorized action. We have received the erroneous notion that all we need is power yet we can find over and over again that does not guarantee the outcome for success. Look to David and Goliath--where David was not seen as the most powerful one yet who obtained the victory, through authority? Power that is unauthorized can be very dangerous for the person trying to wield it. Elijah against the numerous false prophets on Mt Carmel, by sheer numbers it would appear that Elijah would not have the power to match such a group. Yet the question quickly becomes, who is authorized? This is why the remnant, the small group that walks in the authority given by Yahweh is such a threat to the plans of hasatan, for he knows that they are victorious for it is not by strength but His Spirit. When the child of the woman is born, he is taken up to the throne of Yahweh, this speaks of Yeshua's authority. As was seen in the book of Esther when the Jews were allowed to fight back for those who were seeking to take their lives, they had approved power or authority to fight back. Could they have fought in power alone and still prevailed? Remember the kingdom setting is about that is permitted or allowed--authority is the permitted power. As our study today looked to Michael and hasatan both being archangels or messengers of the Most High, at one time would they have the same power? In a fallen position would they have the same authority? This is why we can tell those illegal actions that they are not permitted to continue for Yahweh has made us legal, law abiding citizens and we no longer have to allow unauthorized access to our lives or families! That is why we have what appears to be an continuous attack from this fallen messenger. Lack of authority and only power renders him a much smaller threat but we have to know our position and the authority given to us by His righteous hand! To hear more of this teaching click here.
