Assaulting The Strongholds: An Old Tactic For Modern Times

“Raise your hand if God just healed you,” the visiting pastor said.

Now I was in a faith pickle. My heart started beating and I slowly raised my hand, tepid, and with a bent elbow.

He looked at the room full of raised hands. “All of you who were healed, come to the front of the room.”

Oh no.

Several of us went to the front of the room. The guest pastor went down the line asking us to testify to what God had just done in our bodies. Those before me testified to back pain, headaches, emotional issues, arthritis and more…all healed.

Then he got to me. “What did God heal you of?”

“Well,” I said sheepishly, “it’s not me but my wife. She’s at home and as I read the Bible we’re one flesh…so I say God just healed her through me.”

I didn’t know what he’d say. I wasn’t sure if I was off the theological reservation but I didn’t care. My wife had a lump in her breast and was going in for a biopsy in the morning. I wanted it gone. I knew God could heal it, so I figured I could ask someone to lay hands on me for her and believe it was gone. I believed it could happen, but that pastor had taken me to a confusing corner in asking me to testify to faith in the healing of another.

“Praise God,” he said. “Follow up with him,” he told our normal pastor and he then moved on to the next person. No sweat. To him, it was a done deal. Just like that.  

The next day at the hospital a pre-biopsy ultrasound confirmed the miracle. She was healed. Just like that. Done.

And maybe the answer to all of our current fights is just that simple. Pray audacious prayers and declare unseen victory. Then watch Him do it. Simple.

The Bible is full of examples of armies preparing for battle only to find the enemy camps destroyed in the night by the power of God. Sudden, supernatural victory is a possibility we rarely ask for and less often experience. Why is that? God exhorts his people to ask for wild, faith stretching prayers – to heal the sick, raise the dead, storm the gates of the enemy, and walk on water. We pray, and we even believe in faith that He can do those immediate miracles. But we don’t always apply them to everyday struggles, or even big societal ones. We break out the big guns for prayer time with Betty, who’s dying of cancer, but walking in that authority in all things at all times is just…weird. Right?

No, it’s normal Christianity, or at least it should be.

Our country may be facing unprecedented challenges, but we can apply old tactics to take the victory in a single day. Prayer, anointing with oil, declarations, and worship still win battles. And we’ve got plenty of battles raging so let’s break out the big guns in those arenas, too.

I admit, I’ve come to this revelation a little too slowly. I’ve been banging the drum for restoring elections by lobbying legislators and explaining how the crimes were committed. We’ve provided terabytes of data to show how the bad guys are rigging machines and mail-in tallies. But our leaders don’t care, most of them anyway. Neither do the courts, nor law enforcement.

What now?

The governing bodies across the globe have been lying about viruses, wars, and medicine. We’ve detailed how they’re intentionally destroying our food, air, financial systems, water, and freedom. We’re awake to the forced genocide they’re perpetrating under the guise of health. We’ve exposed the indoctrination and physical mutilation of our children. The globalist satanists aren’t even hiding in the shadows anymore, they’re flaunting their evil on nationally televised awards shows. It’s infested our schools and entertainment venues.  

So, what now?

The political realm is preoccupied with graft and self-preservation. The courts and justice systems are absent or hopelessly compromised. Medicine has lost all credibility. For three years now I’ve been telling people to keep fighting and not lose heart. But despite some promising developments of late, the sad spiral continues downward with new and more devastating atrocities literally popping off the tracks or filling the skies every day. Just ask anyone in Ohio.

So, what can we do? What card can we play next? There are really only two options left.

Option one is to continue doing what we’ve been doing: documenting the crimes, equipping for the coming storm, and preparing to weather the worst parts of Revelation while hopefully preserving something for the next generation of survivors.

But option two is also on the table.

Option two is to do something radically different: worship and pray fervently and see if God will flip the switch. Maybe He’ll take that overwhelming army and lay it waste before you even get your boots laced. Maybe instead of trying to persuade corrupt judges and legislators to do the right thing we should be anointing courtrooms and doorposts in state legislatures, praying that the forces of darkness be silenced in those places and against the ears of those perpetrators. Maybe instead of trying to convince election boards to drop electronic voting machines we should pray against the physical machines and software directly.

Imagine what God would do if 30 million Christians petitioned Him to fry the circuit boards of every Dominion machine in existence. Think He would? Let’s try it.

While we’re at it, I’ve got a few other audacious prayers that I’d like to voice. Join me and say them out loud if you agree:

Lord, supernaturally cleanse the bodies of everyone who took the vaccines. Heal them by your power. Blood clots, infertility, heart issues, neurological aliments be healed forever in those people.

Lord, cleanse our food and water supplies from the toxins evil perpetrators have infused them with.

Lord, I ask that you would silence every dark counsel in our state legislature, that you would render inoperable every satanic agenda before them.

Lord, I ask that those mandated with protecting life would be unable and forevermore unwilling to look the other way, and that they would have the courage to intercede and expose what they’ve known.

Lord, may the software of pedophiles and fraudsters suffer catastrophic failures that destroy forever their ability to harm.

I could go on, and so could you. Keep making these declarations over the issues you’re passionate about. Physically go and lay actual praying hands on the desks and buildings of those perpetrating evil. Ask to shake a shady politician’s slimy hand and pray their deliverance – quietly or out loud, you make the call.

God still does this stuff. He still works miracles in the darkest places. We just have to ask.

A month ago I ate with an Alaska State Trooper from a rural village. These villages are some of the most spiritually dark corners of our country. Crime is constant, and per capita the highest in the nation. Every kind of depravity in these rural communities are countered by a single State Trooper, the only law enforcement officer (excepting maybe few undertrained deputies) for hundreds of miles. The worst of it comes during the holidays, a time many cops loathe for the uptick in violent crime and suicides.

This trooper was dreading it as well. She knew once again she’d be alone for two weeks dealing with the holiday calls from almost a thousand people. But this year she decided to do something different. She decided to pray that she wouldn’t get a single incident over the holidays. And from Christmas through New Year’s Day she didn’t get one…single…call. In one of the darkest places at one of the darkest times, God intervened and kept the evil at bay because He still does that kind of thing.

For three years we’ve been asking Him to heal our land and let His justice reign. We’ve seen some victories but we’ve also seen plenty to despair over – war glorified and exhorted, atrocities ignored or buried, depravity celebrated. Yet if you ask around you’ll also find testimonies from thousands declaring He’s performing miracles every day. Big, hunkin’, flag-waving, bones-growing miracles…the kind that make safe pastors uncomfortable.

We need to get over our fear of unmet expectations and raise our hands high when someone asks if He has accomplished an overwhelming task. Some of the greatest moves of God are seen in the moments where there is nowhere else to turn. We’re there now. The solution isn’t new, it’s old: Raise your voice and declare God’s promises, speak His words and let them subdue His enemies and watch Him lay them at your feet.
