Because the Apostle Asked Me To
While I was in Jacksonville, FL, a prophet friend of mine had a dream. In the dream there was a brand new, largest ever aircraft carrier, of course representing air superiority, that was over three football fields long. It was named the USS Gerald Ford. This carrier was sent up the river by President Trump. It was so big that it couldn’t make it through a narrow place and got stuck in the mud right at the place in Jacksonville where the congregation was battling Leviathan – where it was headquartered. In the dream, the President was asked why he would send this huge ship up this river, as it seemed likely it would get stuck. Trump answered, “Because the Apostle over that area asked me to, and it’s not leaving until he’s finished with it.”
“Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself.” (Ephesians 2:20; NLT)
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
- God has specific projects for us to accomplish. He has the provision for the assignments, as well. Ask Him for whatever you need to do what He has called you to do.
- Declare that all the intercession needed will be raised up by God, as well.
- Apostolic leadership is put in place by God to provide order, support, training, and many other things. Work with the leadership God has placed in an area, if you want maximum kingdom impact!
- Intercede for God’s perfect strategies for the narrow places of your assignments.
A prayer you can pray:
Lord, thank you for letting us know in Your Word that You will provide all we need in Christ Jesus for any Kingdom-advancing strategies you give us to do. Show us where there is apostolic leadership in place that we can partner with to get the job done more effectively. Apostles know their spheres of authority well! They know the resources, the connections, the spiritual climate, and what is needed to get the job done. Give them all that they need. Let us help them and receive help from them, if we can be humble enough to do so. We pray that apostolic leadership will recognize the assignment you have given us and will grant us grace and help us to stir up intercession and other resources to get the job done! We will do the same in fulfilling the vision you have given them, as well. So is the Kingdom. Amen.
Today’s decree:
I decree that God will receive maximum glory for all the apostles and prophets and intercessors do in expanding the Kingdom of God throughout the nation!
