God wants to fight for us. This is not based on how good we have been to him, but on our covenant relationship. God fought for the Gibeonites who lied to get into a covenant relationship with the Israelites (Joshua 7). Our covenant is much better than theirs (Hebrews 12)

If God touched us, he could only curse us. In a sense, he’s blind like Isaac when he blessed Jacob instead of Esau (Gen 27). As it is, he doesn't touch us, he touches Christ and gives us the firstborn blessing. The church shouldn’t sell their birthright. Jesus bought it and gave it to us through his righteousness. If we stand in what He did, we can do what He did.

God wants to move us, both personally and corporately, from the places of pain and barrenness into places of destiny and inheritance. Like Joseph, your gifting is what propels out of prison into the palace (Gen 39). Using the gifts God has given you changes your situation (e.g. Joseph in prison, Daniel in Babylon). Before we enter into the palace, we need to change from prison clothes to palace clothes.

God changes the times and seasons. If we don’t like it, we need to ask God for the power and wisdom to shift. Daniel ruled in the land of his captivity (Dan 2:19-23).

God works with what we have. Give Him what you have and He will use it (i.e. Moses’ staff). Exodus 4:21 – the wonders he has given us to do.

Jesus wants us to greater things than he did (Mt 13:54). Peter’s shadow, handkerchiefs Paul touched – people were healed. Jesus never did those things.

If someone is angry they release a spirit of anger that lingers for hours, if not days. It’s the same when we release the Holy Spirit to people in everyday life. The Holy Spirit’s presence can stay with a person for days.

Every miracle is preceded by the/a prophetic word. Cut of prophecy and cut off miracles.

This is a year to touch the leaders of this nation. We are believing for favor with people of influence.

God wants to hear what we will prophesy. He will meet us at out point of faith, not our point of need.

Dan 7:21,22,25. Prophesy that God puts favor on saints. Antichrist spirit speaks against God. If he can push you down, he can change the time/season of your destiny. Satan tries to change the laws.

If the enemy steals your praise, he steals your future. We need a higher level of praise for each level (eyes on God, not on authority).

Exodus 33:19-21. God had to move Moses into the place (a cleft in the rock) where His glory could be seen. This was a place impossible for Moses to reach by himself. God put him there and held him there. Note that it was also a tight spot. God’s glory is revealed when we trust Him in the tight places.
