Staking a Claim


“The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it,

 the world, and all who live in it;”

Psalm 24:1





“Staking a claim” means to assert one’s ownership rights over something.

What do you lay claim too?

What, as believers, can we rightfully stake a claim too?

Perhaps it’s time to stop surrendering to the enemy what belongs to God!

Perhaps it’s time to stake a claim for your family, your city, town, nation and world.

After all He is Lord over all and we are His ambassadors.

We have flown the white flag for the last time.

Hurting people need to know that we come in His name to take back what the enemy has stolen.

Those in darkness need to know Him who is the Light of Life.

We can arise and shine knowing that our light has come.

And we can be those who allow our light to shine in the dark places that they will no longer be dark places but places redeemed and illuminated by the light of His love.

First, we must recognize that God has commissioned us to bring His Kingdom.

Listen to these words:

“and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.”

Luke 9:2

Some would say that the time has passed on this, that it was a commission given for a season long past.

But Jesus continues to work in the earth – will you work alongside Him bringing the Kingdom?

Will you stake your claim for God?
