Today’s Reading:
Psalm 149
Hebrews 10
And he also says, “My righteous ones will live from my faith. But if fear holds them back, my soul is not content with them!” But we are certainly not those who are held back by fear and perish; we are among those who have faith and experience true life!
Hebrews 10:38-39 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God of all power, dominion and authority say,
I Am anointing My lovers with a new heavy, thick anointing of authority. They will be house cats no longer. They will look in the mirrors and see that I have made them ferocious, powerful lions — lions who enforce My covenants, lions who move with decisive authority and power.
For he enjoys his faithful lovers. He adorns the humble with his beauty, and he loves to give them victory. His godly lovers triumph in the glory of God, and their joyful praises will rise even while others sleep. God’s high and holy praises fill their mouths, for their shouted praises are their weapons of war!
Psalms 149:4-6 TPT
These are not domesticated house cats. My lovers will no longer remain inside the four walls. But they will roam wild and free. Fiercely, proudly and unashamedly they will prowl. They will stake out territory and claim it. They will enforce My covenants and rule the land with a mighty roar. Enemy invaders will not be tolerated. These ferocious lions of worship and praise will magnify My Name. They will make My Name famous through all the Earth as they enforce My covenants and secure My judgements.
These warring weapons will bring vengeance on the nations and every resistant power— to bind kings with chains and rulers with iron shackles. Praise-filled warriors will enforce the judgment decreed against their enemies. This is the honor he gives to all his godly lovers. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
Psalms 149:7-9 TPT
The time for playing house cats is done. My heavy prophetic and revelatory anointing is anointing My lovers, and they will realize, recognize and step into their rightful authority. They will move beyond the four walls into the vast expanse of land, into the wild; and they will mark out, claim and regain territory that the enemy has stolen. The new way will be led by My ferocious lion-hearted lovers. They are exiting the four walls and entering their rightful domain.
How to Respond
- Pray, Lord thank You for Your heavy revelatory, prophetic anointing that is causing us to rise up in recognition of our rightful identity and authority. Help me to shrink back no more, but to rise up as a bold lion and take territory for Your Name’s sake.
- Declare, The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion. — Proverbs 28:1
- Decree, the Lord’s anointing of His lovers is causing us to recognize and rise up in our rightful identity and take back the land. We will no longer play the role of domesticated house cats. But we will rise up as worshippers who enforce the covenants of the Lord our God and who secure His righteous judgements.
