Place Your Foot On The Enemy's Neck

Psalms 149:8 tells us we have the honor of binding kings and their nobles with fetters. And we have honor of executing a written judgement on them.

For every lie that Enemy has tried to pound into our minds. For every fear he has tormented us to make us fear everything but God. For every anxious thought he assailed us in the midnight hour robbing our rest and peace. For every illness he afflicted us causing our bodies to be diminished of strength. We have the authority and power through Jesus name to execute a sentence on him.

How is this possible? Because Christ has already defeated him on the cross with the words, "It is finished."

One of the best illustrations of executing judgment on the Enemy is found in Joshua chapter 10. After the defeat of 5 kings that took refuge in a cave, Joshua order a stone to be rolled over it to seal them inside. Remember death is an enemy that Christ conquered when He arose from the tomb. He rolled the stone away with resurrection power!

And what did Joshua do when he returned from a victorious battle - he had the stone rolled away - and the kings brought out. So God will do to your enemies. The enemies that taunted you, held your hopes hostage, threaten to devour your finances, take your home and spill over your borders. Joshua says, "...Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them." (Joshua 10:25).

Beloved, put your foot down on the ground, even as I write this and declare the promise of God's victory. Sickness must bow to the name of Jesus. Death must give way to life! Poverty must be swallowed up by His abundance! Where there is shame and sorrow, gladness will over take you! These kings must bow to the one and only sovereign King of Kings.

Remember earlier the promise God gave to Joshua and all Israel and us today. Where ever the soles of your feet touch, you will possess the land and the giants in the land. And so beloved, having done all, stand on the necks of your enemies. When you do so, they can not move, twist or turn. Satan is a snake, crush the head and you kill the serpent. The devil is all talk - no arms or legs - a defeated foe. Stand on God's Word and your enemies will never rise again!
