Psalm 90: 14 & 17
Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all of our days.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us – yes, establish the work of our hands
Acts 2:17-21
Acts 1:8
Isa 59:19
Deut. 2:31
‘In the final unfolding days,’ God says, ‘I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. In those days I will pour out my Spirit on those who are serving me,.. And I will cause wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, 31 The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood .. And everyone who receives their message will be saved.’
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.
“I have begun to give… begin to receive.”

Christian are to be sensitive to what God is doing which goes beyond the political and into the spiritual.

we give authority”
How does this happen?
We said through..
The Anointing
We saw
Understanding is a Key.. Bible talk; Justification sanctification, atonement
If you don’t understand the Anointing and the way it functions by the Holy Spirit
You will fall prey to the manipulations of the enemy (fear, inadequacy, intimidation, deactivation, etc)
It’s why most Christians never see the power of God “to and through” their lives.
Isa 10:27 It is the anointing that breaks the yoke.
