Call to be a Warrior

Norm McLeod speaking at PKNZ 2024 event

CALL TO WAR

John 17:4 - "I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do"

• Living a life that brings glory to God every day not just Sunday.
• Living a life that’s making a difference in your marriage, family, workplace, Church and the community you live in.
• COME THROUGH THE RIGHT DOOR FIRST.

CALL TO BE A WARRIOR:
Judges 6:12-14 - "And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him, and said to him, “The LORD is with you, you mighty man of valor!” Gideon said to Him, “O my lord, if the LORD is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all His miracles which our fathers told us about, saying, ‘Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt?’ But now the LORD has forsaken us and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.” Then the LORD turned to him and said, “Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?”

• Gideon is hiding from the enemy, he’s feeling weak and afraid – even though he believes in the God of miracles, he doesn’t believe He is with him. HOW DO YOU SEE YOURSELF?

The angel sees Gideon as a great warrior this shows you how God sees you.

REALITY: Compared to the worlds standard and to your fears you are weak.
TRUTH: But God doesn’t see you through the weakness of your flesh – He sees you in the spirit as a strong intelligent warrior.

1 Sam 16:7 - But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the LORD does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”

= The Lord looks at the warrior that’s in you – not the weakness in your flesh or soul. Until you agree with God and see yourself as He sees you, you will never be the warrior He created you to be.

LET ME SHOW YOU THE WARRIOR YOU ARE:
• My job is to show you the warrior God sees in you – your job is to believe it and become it.

7 STEPS TO RELEASE THE WARRIOR IN YOU AND TURN INFORMATION IN MANIFESTATION:
1. INFORMATION – Is only knowledge. Read your Bible intentionally daily.
2. MEDITATION – Go over every word and extract meaning. Josh 1:8
3. DECLARATION – Speak out your identity three times daily. Rom 10:17
4. REVELATION – From information in your head to revelation in your heart. Matt 16:17
5. IMITATION – Learn by imitating true warrior fathers in the faith. 1 Cor 4:16
6. APPLICATION – You must step out and apply revelation. James 1:25
7. MANIFESTATION – Experience for yourself Christ glory through you. Col 1:27

PRAYER TO PRAY DAILY DECLARING WHO YOU ARE AS A NEW CREATION….

I am born again of the Spirit of God, and because I am a new creation in my spirit I am strong and full of courage; I am not afraid or dismayed because the Lord God is with me wherever I go. John 3:3,  2 Cor 4:17, Joshua 1:9

This is not by my might nor by my power but by the spirit of God within me that enables me to do all things through Christ who strengthens me because greater is He within me than he that is in the world. Zechariah 4:6, Phil 4:19, 1 Jn 4:4

God has anointed me with the Holy Spirit and power and I am going about doing good and healing all those oppressed of the devil because God is with me. Acts 10:38

Because I am a new creation in Christ Jesus, I have a pure heart and a right spirit within me. Jesus who knew no sin became sin for me so that I have now I have become the righteousness of God. 2 Cor 4:17, 2 Cor 5:21

No weapon formed against me can prosper and every tongue raised in judgment against me I cast to the ground, because this is part of my spiritual inheritance and my righteousness if from the Lord. I overcome satan by the blood of the lamb, and the word of my testimony, and I love not my life unto the death. Isaiah 54:17, Rev 12:11

The Lord God has lifted me above all the nations of the earth I am blessed in the city, and I am blessed in the field, I am blessed when I come in and I am blessed when I go out. When the enemy comes against me in one direction, the Lord will rise up and cause him to be scattered before my face in seven directions. I am the head and not the tail, I am above and not beneath my circumstances. Deut 28:1, 3, 6-7, 13.
