The Violence Required for a Victorious Life

There is a certain kind of violence required for a believer to emerge into a glorious destiny. A victorious life is not accidental—it is enjoyed by those who understand and respond to spiritual realities with intention and force.

Scripture tells us plainly: “From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of God suffers violence, and the violent take it by force” (Matthew 11:12).

This is not a call to physical aggression, but a revelation of spiritual posture.

There is no neutral ground in the spirit. You are either advancing or retreating. You are either enforcing God’s will or passively allowing opposition to prevail. If you do not stand in faith and prayer—requesting and demanding what God has already ordained—you may live far below His desires and intentions for your life.

The Violence Believers Must Embrace

The violence required of the believer is not against people, but against:

Bondage

Delay

Cycles and negative patterns

The works of darkness

This kind of violence is holy, intentional, and spiritual.

Violence is a strategy.

Violence is a posture.

It is the posture required to exercise your priesthood as a believer. Heaven responds to spiritual insistence. Until you become restless, the yoke will not fall. Until you rise with resolve, certain patterns will continue unchecked.

Saying “No More”

There comes a point when you must draw a line and say, “No more.”

Agony is not normal.

Delay is not normal.

Sickness is not your portion.

Spiritual blindness is not your inheritance.

When believers tolerate what Christ has already conquered, they empower oppression unnecessarily. Freedom demands resistance.

I bring a reawakening call—to move in step with the Spirit who presides over your altar. Heaven is not silent; it is waiting for alignment, obedience, and spiritual aggression rooted in faith.

Be spiritually violent.

Enforce the victory of the Cross.

For Jesus is freedom.

‎PRECISION — A CLEAR-CUT MARK‎

‎"...If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him." - James 1:5 

‎

‎“If any lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives liberally.”

‎

‎Recently, I took up a new project. After working on it for a while, I became stuck—burnt out and overwhelmed. I went to sleep worried, pondering what to do next. Somewhere between sleep and wakefulness, the Holy Spirit spoke to me: Search out a scripture for your need and bring it to God.

‎

‎And the scripture that dropped into my spirit was this:

‎“If any lacks wisdom…”

‎Those very first words kept echoing in my mind—over and over again.

‎How do you deal with life’s issues?

‎How do you handle moments when it feels like, “I’m definitely going to regret this choice”?

‎

‎I’ve often heard it said that God never created us to do life independent of Him. Even after creating Adam and Eve, He still came into the garden to walk with them, to talk with them, and to instruct them in the way they should go.

‎

‎Perhaps He knew they could become overwhelmed if He didn’t visit them—if He didn’t give them a template for navigating the life He had entrusted to them.

‎That divine guidance gave humanity a clear-cut way to live. Adam knew his responsibility—to name the animals and every living creature. They understood timing, purpose, and order because the Spirit of the Lord placed within them a clear-cut mark.

‎

‎I often find myself asking, “What’s your point exactly?” in conversations I struggle to follow. But have we truly taken the journey of asking God:

‎“What is the clear-cut mark?”

‎“How do I build this new business?”

‎“How do I move in this season?”

‎Yes, I know I’ve attended great schools. Yes, I have knowledge. But is there a wisdom—hidden in the wells of God—that can give me not just a mark, but the mark?

‎

‎Precision.

‎That is what God has been whispering in my spirit. And He is saying:

‎“This is what I want to give you in this new month. I want you to hit the mark for this season.”

‎What is that thing that has left you exposed—slipping through every shade of defenselessness?

‎God is asking:

‎Is there a wisdom that you lack?

‎Ask of Me, for I am the One who gives liberally.

‎Come to the liberal Giver today.

‎Come to the Giver who withholds nothing.

‎

‎Stay revived!

TAKING PROPHECY FROM UTTERANCE TO MANIFESTATION

Miracles by force.

Breakthroughs by force.

Prophetic words by force.

The mistake of many believers is assuming that once a word is spoken, it will automatically manifest. But prophecy is not the end; it is the beginning of responsibility.

A prophetic word is an invitation into partnership with God. When God speaks, He expects alignment, engagement, and enforcement.

1 Timothy 1:18 (NKJV)

“This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare''.

Every prophecy demands warfare. Not because God is weak, but because the earth is contested territory. Heaven releases words, but men must contend on earth.

This is why many prophecies die—not because they were false, but because they were never fought for. Before questioning the prophecy, we must ask the right question:

Did God truly say it?

If God said it, then He has already authorized its fulfillment. But authorization does not remove opposition.

Waiting is not passivity. Waiting is active alignment—prayer, obedience, discernment, and strategy.

Warfare is not only casting out demons. Warfare is the reality of existence in a fallen world.

To wake up every morning is warfare.

To advance in purpose is warfare.

To carry destiny is warfare.

Ephesians 6:12

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood…”

Nothing of value comes uncontested. 

That business opportunity is warfare.

That marriage is warfare.

That pregnancy is warfare.

That calling is warfare.

The enemy does not fight what has no future.

 Matthew 11:12

“From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.”

Violence in the kingdom is not physical; it is spiritual insistence. It is the refusal to let go of what God has spoken.

We must reclaim our priesthood. A priest does not beg; a priest stands, declares, and enforces what heaven has already decided. “You have made us kings and priests to our God. Revelation 5:10

Stop pampering the devil. When he resists, resist him back—fully, decisively, and scripturally.

Sensitivity to the Spirit is crucial in warfare. Not every battle requires the same response. There are seasons to hold on, seasons to walk away, and seasons to run.

This is not an age of spiritual sleep. This is not a time to explain away what must be confronted in prayer.

Some problems are not for discussion—they are for intercession.

“The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God.”

2 Corinthians 10:4

Those who discern the signs in the Spirit will not be victims of the times—they will be victors

Wake up.

Take responsibility for the word spoken over you.

Pray until the prophetic word becomes a reality.

Seeing Clearly Through the Lens of the Holy Spirit

Oftentimes, in the midst of making decisions, we find ourselves confused—unsure of which path to take or which answer best fits the question before us. Life constantly asks us questions, and we often desperately seek answers, yet we still miss the right response. This often happens because we attempt to answer life’s questions outside the lens of the Holy Spirit.

When we begin to see life through the lens of the Holy Ghost, we no longer see things merely as we imagine they should be, we begin to see them as they truly are. The Holy Spirit is not the author of confusion.

1 Corinthians 14:33 (NKJV)

For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.

You cannot say the Holy Spirit told you something today and then claim He changed His mind the next morning. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty—liberty in the mind, spirit, soul, and body.

However, this liberty is not automatic. It requires alignment—through obedience, study of the Word, and prayer—for the manifestation of the salvation we have received. When a man encounters God, that encounter is often secret, but when the manifestation comes, it becomes evident that he has truly met with God.

When faced with a troubling decision, it is not the time to become overly critical or analytical in the flesh. Rather, it is a time to see through the lens of the Spirit, to discern and understand. A man who knows how to journey in the Spirit with the help of the Holy Ghost cannot lose his way.

Proverbs 3:5–6 (NKJV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.

Scripture reminds us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts. It is our acknowledgement of Him that brings direction to our paths. When God directs you, you cannot lose your way. Many times, confusion arises when we give more weight to human advice—especially from people in authority—than to the voice of the Holy Spirit. This should not be so.

The Word tells us that “eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” Therefore, in moments of confusion, the Spirit of the Lord is ever present, ready to direct your path—if only you will trust Him.
