Do you know anybody that seems to be stuck in a vicious cycle they are trying to overcome? What if I told you that it might be due to a legal right the enemy is holding onto in their bloodline to keep them bound to the very thing they are desiring freedom from? They might have cried out to the LORD over and over again to set them free, but they think their prayers haven't been answered. The LORD desires to set everyone free, but there is also a process that the LORD has established where certain legalities in the spiritual realm need to be addressed and dealt with before the breakthrough is released.

Fifty percent of the spiritual battle takes place in the courts, just as much as the spiritual battle takes place on the battlefield that we call Earth. If there's a legal right that hasn't been dealt with in the Courts of the LORD, then the battlefield victory cannot be fully sealed until those legal issues are dealt with.

That’s a part of the reason that some people who have prayed in alignment with God’s will didn't see the breakthrough and created a theology for it called: If it's God's will: “Well maybe it wasn’t the LORD’s will brother, we did everything we could, it’s in God’s Hands now. ” God’s Word is clear on what He wants and what He doesn't want and like.

There is a reason that the the the Holy Spirit and the Lord Jesus are called our Advocates:John 14:26 LSV“and the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My Name, He will teach you all things, and remind you of all things that I said to you. ”1 John 2:1 LSV““My little children, these things I write to you that you may not sin: and if anyone may sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the Righteous One,”The same Greek word parakletos used in John 14 to describe the Holy Spirit is the exact same word used to describe Jesus as our Advocate.

Parakletos means: Intercessor, Advocate, Consoler, Comforter. You see, the victory is won in the courts and the victory is enforced on the battlefield.

But so many Christians due to a lack of knowledge have treated spiritual warfare as a battlefield and not a courtroom. That’s why they haven't seen sweeping victories but have constantly struggled, always in a spiritual battle.

Don’t get me wrong, if someone is in a spiritual battle they are either called, made unfortunate choices or they're deeply pursuing the Lord. We win through God’s Gavel and His Sword.

The gavel precedes the Sword and once the Sword comes backed by the Court’s Ruling look out, because Heaven is enforcing it and God doesn’t lose in battle. Hallelujah! It's no secret that Jesus came to set us free, but what many don’t know is that a part of Who Jesus is, in Heaven, is our Defense Lawyer.

Advocate is another word for it. It's clear in the Scriptures that Jesus came to deliver the oppressed, and we see that clearly in the Scriptures.

Every believer that desires the deeper things of God and is surrendering their will goes through a process that I would call the Process of Sanctification:1. The Moment of Salvation2.

The Honeymoon Phase3. The Hardship Phase4.

The Spiritual Warfare Phase5. The Conqueror Phase6.

The Victory Phase7. The Continuous Honeymoon Phase8.

The Joy of The Lord PhaseAnd once a believer walks through these phases they become stronger in their faith, know how to fight spiritually, and they don’t take defeat as an option because they know God’s will is victory. So what do you say, do you want to sharpen your sword? Then let’s embark on this journey together!Philippians 4:13 KJV“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
