Series: The Inheritance of the Saints
Facing the Enemy — Part 5: Post 30 of 35
Taking Ground Back
The enemy has taken ground—but it’s time to take it back.
God is a restorer. He does not just forgive; He reclaims, rebuilds, and re-establishes.
“And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten…” (Joel 2:25)
Every place the enemy has gained through deception, sin, or surrender—God can redeem. But He calls you to rise up.
Submit. Resist. Pursue.
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you…” (James 4:7–8)
The land will not drive out its own enemies. You must act.
Israel was given the land—but they had to possess it. Every giant, every stronghold, every high place had to be brought down.
So it is with your soul.
You take ground back by:
– Confessing the truth
– Renouncing lies
– Forgiving those who’ve wronged you
– Obeying immediately and wholeheartedly
– Filling the vacant places with the Word and Spirit
Spiritual eviction must be followed by holy occupation.
Where Satan once ruled, Christ must now reign.
And here is where it all points:
“Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance…” (Exodus 15:17)
You are not just taking ground—you are being planted in Christ.
