THE ALTAR CONTINUE

Learning from today's fellowship.

The fire on the altar must be kept burning; it must not go out. Every morning the priest is to add firewood and arrange the burnt offering on the fire and burn the fat of the fellowship offerings on it. The fire must be kept burning on the altar continuously; it must not go out. Leveticus 6:12-13

Classification of altar
1, Godly altar (Genesis 8:20, 12:7, Exodus 24:4)
2, Demonic altar ( Numbers 23:1, Exodus 34:13)

There is no where on this earth that the devil does not have his agents and the way they pay homage to him, the way they give him access into their lives is through their demonic altar. Everywhere they go, they raise altars to the demon who sent them there.

In our neighbourhood, our work places, our markets, our schools, everywhere. Anytime they get to such a place, they call him there. They invoke him to dominate that place for them to be able to operate.

But children of the Most High God will be living their lives as if it's not the same battle field. We walk carelessly, sit carelessly, we don't even know how to bring the King into our jobs, homes, schools, markets, etc. ... That is why we are at the mercy of the devil everywhere and we are just praying compilation of warfare prayers from a book.  I'm not asking us to be paranoid but "watch and pray".

Let's take a cue from Moses in Exodus 17:15. Where he called God, Jehovah Nissi...God is my banner. That battle with Amalek was the 1st one for the Israelites after they left Egypt. This banner is not the banner to print programmes, it is the flag carried by those at the frontline of a battalion to show what clan they belong to at the warfront. Let the altar of God be the 1st thing we raise anywhere we go. Let the kingdom of darkness know that you have arrived.

As I said last week, that altar does not need to be different from other parts of that space. Pick a spot, anoint it, call God to take charge of that area, at every time you step there, you give Him thanks and hand that place over to him. You will see the devil lose his hold over you because the environment is not conducive for him to operate. He cannot survive there.

Note that even if a demonic altar has been raised in your space, the moment you raise an altar for Jehovah Nissi, the demonic power is dead.  1Samuel 5:3

1 Thessalonians 5: 17, Pray without ceasing. Bring everything, every person, every desire before God on that altar.

Cancel the actions of demonic altars from that altar. Heal the sick from that altar, cleanse the "leper" from that altar, raise the dead from that spot and cast out demons (Matthew 10:8)

Call names, call places, mention plans/desires. It's not a bother to Him, He wants to know. Let's be empowered to conquer.

Shalom!
