LAYING THE FRAMEWORK AND PRINCIPLES FOR OCCUPYING TILL CHRIST RETURNS. PART 14
OCCUPY TILL HE RETURN. ARCHITECT OF THE FUTURE; ENGINEERING TOMORROW. PART 14.
What are the correct principles and practices we need to know and follow to enhance the building and advancement of God's kingdom initiatives?
The issues related to the kingdom of God start deep within the human heart. To seek the will of the Father and his kingdom agendas, we must first configure our hearts with the right values, culture, and way of life. These invisible qualities and elements form the foundation for pleasing the Lord with our motivation to desire resources.
The word "occupy" has several meanings and functions in the word of God. In Luke 14, our Lord Jesus Christ used this term to teach us one of the keys to entering and functioning within the order of kingdom governmental influence on earth.
Whenever we are dispossessed from the place or realm we have been called to occupy for God, we directly give the enemy an undue advantage to influence and afflict society with his diabolical schemes.
One single way we can be assured of victory in any battle or accomplishment in any given assignment is to create a governmental presence within and around that realm or space. Hence, it's not enough to merely defeat the enemy; we must take over such a space and turn it into heaven’s original intention.
MATTHEW 12:
43 When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. 44 Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ On its return, it finds the house vacant, swept clean, and put in order. 45 Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there; the final plight of that man is worse than the first. So will it be with this wicked generation.”
Heaven releases seasonal prophetic insights, instructions, directives, and other relevant resources so we can better position ourselves and be more resourceful in order to correctly advocate and advance the initiatives of God's Kingdom mandate on earth.
As believers, we are instructed to occupy until Christ's return. This prophetic mandate requires us to develop a higher level of prophetic insight and strategic engagement to fulfill it.
One of the requirements of this apostolic instruction is that we remain steadfast, courageous, and relevant in carrying out heaven's redemptive and restorative assignment as the ecclesia within the 21st-century culture. But beyond this, we need to strictly follow the principle of replacement, meaning it will not be profitable for us to fulfill one aspect of the scripture without completing the next phase of divine occupation, as we see in the above scripture. Matthew 12:43-45.
