TODAYS'S FOOD FOR THE SOUL Luke 8:26-39 TODAY'S RHEMA Luke 8:28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell at his feet, shouting at the top of his voice, "What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don't torture me!"
Some animals have a unique way of defending themselves from predators. Syrphid flies have a similar morphology to Apis Melifera species (honey bees). Syrphid flies are not dangerous, while Apis Melifera is fierce and can attack anyone who disturbs them. When looking for food, Syrphid flies mimic the behavior of Apis Melifera bees, even to the time of visit to the flowers of certain plants. With this unique method, predators always think of Syrphid's fly as an Apis Melifera. In biology, this method is referred to as Batesian mimicry, which is a behavior of a harmless species (mimic) evolving to be able to resemble a dangerous species (model) to scare its predators.
In our everyday life, we will always get attacks from the devil. Just as lions that walk around, roaring and are ready to pounce, he is always looking for an opportunity to prey on us. To defend ourselves from these demonic attack, we can learn from the Batesian mimicry method. It can be analogous, we are mimics (imitators) while Jesus Christ is the model (imitated). When we have the same behavior as Jesus Christ, the devil will never dare to approach and disturb us. Learn to move in the prophetic dimension like Jesus, so that you will become a terror to the devil.
Therefore, we no longer need to be afraid of the devil and the myriad of problems that are caused by him. In the just concluded Unlimited Conference in our church, Prophet Adedeji illustrated it with the corn seeds in the bottle. Chickens will never be able to eat it because corn seeds are protected in the strong bottles. Let us maintain the prophetic dimension. Keep speaking and prophesying, building up your most holy faith and praying in the holy ghost. And the mighty move of God will become real in your life. REFLECTION Saudara Terkasih, If you understand how to MOVE in the PROPHETIC DIMENSIONS you will be A TERROR to the devil and his cohorts. APPLICATIONS 1. What is your problem today? 2. How will you not lose to the devil's intimidation with your problem? 3. What are the words of faith that you must voice so that you can claim the victory Christ already won for you? TODAY'S PRAYER "Lord Jesus, thank you for Your faithfulness. You never leave me alone regardless of the problems I face. You always protect me and even promise victory over my problems. I receive the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, I walk in Your dimension, I have victory over challenges. Let every triumph be my offering for Your glory. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen."
