Know the land you walk on

SUMMARY: To fully receive God's blessings in our lives, we need to understand the nature of the promises, responsibilities, and enemies we may face. The Christian life is not easy, and there will be battles and risks that require prayer, fasting, and cleansing. We must leave things behind and fight against the devil's attempts to destroy us. However, we can be more than conquerors with God's help. We must believe in God's power and know that He will deliver us from all afflictions. We can enter the dangerous land with confidence, knowing that God is with us every step of the way.

We have to know the nature of the promises that God has for our life, and also the responsibilities as well as the enemies who want to destroy our life and prevent God's blessings for us.

Because the Christian life is not a walk in the park. There is a fight. The Bible says that the kingdom of heaven grows strong and the mighty seize it. So, you need to know the nature of that land that God puts before you. It is good land, a land that flows with milk and honey. But a land also of battles, risks and demands. It requires prayer, it requires fasting, it requires cleansing one of many things.
