Demolishing Strongholds

Listen to the Podcast

Here is today's communion meditation.

 The other day I came across Numbers 33:51-52 which says, "When you cross the Jordan into the land of Canaan, 52 you must drive out before you all the inhabitants of the land, destroy all their carved images and cast idols, and demolish all their high places."

This reminded me of 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 which says, "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ."

When the people crossed over into the promised land they were to demolish all of the high places. In a similar way, for us to take our promised land and step into all of the promises of God we must demolish every argument and imagination that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and His standard of grace. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us demolish strongholds so that we take possession of and get established in His promises.

There are some strongholds in the area of our health that must be demolished. These are usually belief systems and arguments for how to do things that are based on what the world has taught us, not God's way. 

I am praying for you.
