SPIRITUAL STREAKERS
by
Rev. Patricia Danker

Are you a Spiritual “streaker?” If so, the devil sees you walking around spiritually naked, and he laughs because he knows you are defenseless against  his  wiles.  To avoid this pitfall, pray a hedge of protection around yourself and your loved ones. That’s what this message aims to teach you how to do.

In order to be strong enough to fight the Good Fight (1Tim. 6:12), we must pray for a   Hedge of Protection by declaring Ps. 91: 2,3, “I  will  say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my Fortress, My God in Him will I trust,” for then He will," "...deliver you from the snares of the fowler,” Because we have made the Lord our habitation.

Our deliverance: 

Should lead to praise.  As we believers sing praises to the Lord. He sits down among us, enthroned upon our praises. Psalm. 22:3 states, “But Thou are Holy O Thou that inhabits (to sit down or dwell among) the praises (tehillah-songs ,psalms, the residing songs of the Spirit) of Israel."

“And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess, but be filled with the Spirit: speaking to yourselves in Psalms and Hymns and Spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord"(Eph. 5: 18,19).  As you sing to God He inhabits your Praises.

As you walk with Him  in the Spirit, He will be your refuge:

“Because we have set our Love upon  Him" (Psalm 91:14), we can  claim God’s Protection .

When you seek God first, “No disaster will come near your tent. For He will  command His Angels concerning  you to  guard  in  all  your  ways”
(Psalm. 91: 10,11), and you will be safe, because, “The Angels of the Lord encampeth about them that fear Him and delivereth them” (Ps.34:7).

To be surrounded by:

God’s Hedge of protection we must set our love upon Him. “One thing have I desired“ said David ( Ps. 27: 4). Jesus said, ”– yet lackest thou one thing” (Luke 18:22).  To Martha, Jesus said, ”Thou are careful and troubled about many things; but one thing is needed" (Lk. 10:41,42).  Paul declared, ”This one thing I do” (Phil.13).

We lack one important thing devotion to God. We hurry and  scurry, busy with our own business, but we neglect our Father's Business.

Our Heavenly Father says, ”Tarry with me one(1) hour.” But we put our own thing first and before we know it ,the day is over and we have not spent any time with God. It’s time we grow up spiritually and learn to give our  Father the first hour of our day, then there will be 23 more hours to take care of our own thing.

We need to allow the Holy  Spirit  to focus our energies and attention upon the Lord. To set our love upon Him as we cling to Him in absolute trust, He will be our Protection.

Because we have known His Name:

“The  name of the Lord is a strong Tower , the righteous run into it, and  is safe (Prov.18:10).  The Name of the Lord signifies  not only who He is, but what He wants to be in your life.

Don’t take the Lord’s Name in vain    He is more than  your Savior, He is your Righteousness and Sanctifier, He is your Peace and the overflowing One present within you. He is your Healer, Provider, Banner and Shepherd. So you know His Name, for it is a strong   tower  . Let Him be what you need Him to be in your life.   

Read all of  Psalm 91 to see what the Lord wants to do for you.

He puts a Hedge around us,,our homes and all we have on every side. He confesses happiness and prosperity upon us in the work of our hands, He makes our POSSESSIONS INCREASE, NOT DECREASE.  Every day as you pray, “Lead  us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil” (Matthew 6:13), declare that Hedge of protection around yourselves, your friends, and loved ones, your home and all you have.  "And  having  done  all, STAND!"
