As the enemy came up against David, because of the increase of his anointing and authority, God fought on his behalf and delivered the enemy into his hands. If you feel at times the enemy pressing in against you, it may not be because you are doing something wrong. It may actually be because you are doing something right! If you keep yourself in a good place with God, if you stay in the light of His presence and keep yourself from evil, God will deliver the enemy into your hands.As the enemy came up against David, because of the increase of his anointing and authority, God fought on his behalf and delivered the enemy into his hands.

If you keep yourself in a good place with God, if you stay in the light of His presence and keep yourself from evil, God will deliver the enemy into your hands.But you have to be aware of something. The enemy is persistent. In this account with David, he came back a second time. David inquired of the Lord again. This time God said in 2 Samuel 5:24, "And when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, then bestir yourselves, for then has the Lord gone out before you to smite the army of the Philistines."
Just as God dispatched warring angels to fight on David's behalf, so God is releasing warring angels to go before His people to clear out every obstacle and hindrance that would attempt to stand before you.
Be More Persistent Than the Enemy
Just because the enemy comes back again and presses again, that does not mean that you didn't get a breakthrough. It just means you have to determine in your heart that you are going to be more persistent than the enemy. The word of the Lord is PRESS. When the enemy presses in against you, you must press back against him. As you do, God is bringing you into this place called Baal-Perazim. He is bringing you into the place of BREAKTHROUGH. Persistence will be a key for you.
The reason you have been going through what you have been going through is because you are about to come into a new place of increase, authority and influence. The enemy is terrified of this, but he will not prevail. God is putting a breaker anointing on you today so that you can successfully PRESS all the way through.
I encourage you, as we finish out August and make our way into September, that you spend time before the Lord allowing Him to do a deeper work of consecration than ever before. Let go of whatever you need to let go of. Purge your life of whatever doesn't belong there. Spend time in God's presence and press through all resistance in the spirit realm through persistent prayer, worship and a holy, consecrated life. And watch what God will do in you and through you as we enter into this next season.
Let's Pray: Lord, I surrender in a fresh way every area of my heart and life to You. May I be completely consecrated to You and may the enemy have nothing in me. May I be full of Your light and truth and may I be ready to move into the season of increase and blessing You have for me. May Your glory, authority, presence and power rest upon my life in new dimensions. May my impact for Your Kingdom increase in this hour as I fully surrender my all to You, in Jesus' name. Give me the strength and endurance I need. I thank You for BREAKTHROUGH IN EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE, in Jesus' name. Amen.
