BATTLE IT ON YOUR KNEES

     BATTLE IT ON YOUR KNEES
INTRODUCTION
The world in which we are is a wicked, evil, sinful, adulterous and perverse world. Many system of the world today are under Satanic manipulations.
TROUBLOUS WORLD
" Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble (Job 14:1; 5:7; Ecc 2:23). God (the creator of heaven and earth) had not designed it to be like that, but man willingly surrendered his will to the devil in the garden of Eden by yielding to Satanic suggestions and manipulations contrary to God's command. God's intention for us was to live forever because He [God] did not tell Adam not to eat fruits from the tree of life. He told not to touch the tree of knowledge and He had his own reason for that. Our first parents disobeyed and evil entered into this world (Gen 3 :1 - 24). The curse of God since then is upon this world and that is the reason why there are painful experiences in the world. Man, having sold himself to the devil is under the manipulations, intimidation and dominion of Satan. Jesus ( the WORD Personified) called this world the following names:
  • Evil and Adulterous Generation ( Mt 12:39)
  • Generation of Vipers ( Mt 3:7)
  • Wicked Generation ( Mt 12:45)
  • Perverse Generation (Mt 17:17)
  • Sinful Generation ( Mark 8:38)
  • Faithless Generation (Mark 9:19)                    

 Apostle Peter called it Untoward(crooked) generation(Acts 2:40) and Apostle Paul called it Evil world. Truly evil is reigning in this present world. There are ritualists, men sellers, men slayers, kidnappers, thieves, men killers shedding innocent blood everywhere. All these are pointing to the fact that this world is very evil.
TREND OF WARFARE IN THE WORLD
Jesus was born to reign as King and save the world,  Herod fought this till he died; Joseph was to become Prime minister in Egypt, his own brothers fought the vision fruitlessly; Daniel was preferred above others, they fought him to lions den; what shall I say of David, children of Israel in Egypt, Peter and Paul. Truly there are enemies to fight within and without. You've got to win the battle on your knees.
TRIUMPH IN WARFARE ON YOUR KNEES
God said call upon me in the days of trouble; I will deliver you and thou shall glorify my name. (Ps 50:15)
Ps 55:16 says " As for me I shall call upon God; and the Lord shall save me. What about you?
