Luke 12:56 We’re in a season where God is giving breakthroughs in answer to prayer and fasting.  It is a season of intense spiritual warfare through mid April. The enemy is being forced to release resources, buildings, land, businesses, ideas, etc. Where there have been delays and defeats and discouragement, there will be great victories and breakthroughs.   Warring, believing, persistent prayer is one of the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. Here is a simple scriptural principle that Kings exercise. To take your land and expand your portion of the Kingdom on this earth, you must open the doors of the Kingdom of Heaven and release God’s provision and will through prayer. We understand what is already bound and loosed in heaven and we declare that same victory on earth.   19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be (what has already been) bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be (what has already been) loosed in heaven. Matt 16:19   18 "I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. 19 "Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them."  Matt 18:18-20   Take the opportunity to experience your own breakthrough during this season of prayer and fasting. Here’s why – Warfare is a “fact of life” for Kings that expand the Kingdom.  Prayer and fasting are, necessarily, a “way of life” for Kings. You are God’s mighty men called to do great exploits in this hour. Your primary offensive weapon is the Sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God (Eph 6:17).  You wield that mighty sword through prayer in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of  prayers. but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. Dan 11:32  NKJV   17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. Eph 6:17-18   Blessings,   John & Harold        _____________________________________________________________________    Conference in Holland March 28 - April 5   Harold has made ministry trips to the Netherlands for the last few years.
