May 2021-David's strategy and God's confirmation to the breakthrough

⏲ 3 mins


Place: Valley of Rephaim

Scene1: Philistines spread out for the battle against David.
David: Shall I go up?
God: Go up.
David: Will you hand them over to me?
God: I will certainly hand over to you.
David: After defeating them, David said that, Thank you, You are the Master of breakthroughs aka Baal-perazim.

So David came to Baal-perazim, and he defeated them there, and said, “The Lord has broken through my enemies before me, like a breakthrough of water.” So he named that place Baal-perazim (master of breakthroughs). 2 Samuel 5:19-20 AMP

Scene2: Philistines spread out for the battle against David.
David: Shall I go up?
God: No. You shall not go up.
David: What is the plan?
God: Circle around behind them and come at them in front of the balsam trees. And when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall pay attention and act promptly, for at that time *the Lord will have gone out before you* to strike the army of the Philistines.”
David: Thank you.

David did just as the Lord had commanded him and struck down the Philistines from Geba as far as Gezer. 2 Samuel 5:25 AMP

The simple and smart strategy that David applied during his expansion as the king is that checking with God. *Prayer* is the way forward to get Break throughs. In other words, Prayer *brings Break Through*. Amen.

May the Lord lead us through victory, help us to overcome the setbacks. May the Master of Break throughs enable us to conquer forts, barriers, and great walls to expand our horizons. Let's give a big shout out of Praises to the Lord and bring Glory to His Name in everything we do, receive in this new month (May 2021) . In the Name of the Jesus Name, the Prophesied Messiah. Amen.

God Blesses Israel and Us. 🙏🙏🙏

In His Grip,

Boldness

Boldness Reference: Heb 4:12-16 We do not have to tiptoe toward God. We can always enter His presence—not only when in need, full, or facing challenges. His Word pierces soul and spirit, joints and marrow. He knows our thoughts and intentions before we ask or think. So the author of Hebrews urges us: boldly approach the throne of Grace. Receive daily bread, seasonal help, mercies, and Grace He has already arranged. In time of need, at the right time, He will help us. As Peter assured, submit obediently in His hand. Confidence: Not because the week went well. Not because your prayers feel mature. Because the curtain tore. Confidence isn't arrogance. It's knowing God left the door open.  The barrier didn't get thin—it split wide open. The King on the throne is also our High Priest. He knows our weakness from the inside. We are not interrupting Him. We have been invited. Gentle invitation. Urgent invitation. If Grace finds us and fills the room, what happens to the pressure to...

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer Reference - 1 Sam 17, Ps 59 and 2 Sam 15 David was known as a man after God’s own heart, as witnessed by God Himself. The Bible reveals many reasons for this, but one of the most notable is his unwavering faith—trusting God completely and placing all his hope in the One who is more than able to guide him. I would like to discuss three scenarios and observe his responses to inspire our faith and draw us closer to Him. 1) When the Israelite army fled from Goliath, David stood his ground, boldly declaring the giant’s defeat before the fight even began, trusting entirely in the Name of the Lord rather than physical weapons. With a single stone, David struck Goliath down, vindicated God’s Name, routed the Philistine army, and proved to all that the battle belongs to the Lord. He proclaimed victory before the clash, relying not on spear, sword, or javelin, but on the Lord’s power. David said, in 1 Sam 17:45-47, “You come against me with sword,...

Prayer is tactical, transactional and transformative practice in the Bible.

Yes, prayer in the Bible is indeed **tactical**, **transactional**, and **transformative**. Each of these aspects highlights a different dimension of prayer, showing its depth and power in the life of a believer. Let’s explore these three dimensions with biblical examples and insights: --- ### **1. Prayer is Tactical** Prayer is a **spiritual weapon** and a strategic tool in the believer’s life. It is used to engage in spiritual warfare, seek God’s guidance, and advance His kingdom. - **Biblical Example**: **Ephesians 6:18**     Paul instructs believers to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests." This is part of the "armor of God," showing that prayer is a tactical weapon in spiritual battles.    - **Application**:     Prayer is not passive; it is an active, intentional practice to combat evil, break strongholds, and bring God’s will to earth. It is a way to align ourselves with God’s strategies and overcome th...
