Wrestling With The Dreams of Backwardness And Stagnation
Jeremiah 7:24: But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
Jeremiah 15:6: Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.
The Lord told the Israelites “you have been too long on this mountain, get out of here, go to that land!” But they said “no. We will not go. We will send people”. And then they went to start fighting the war God did not ask them to fight. So when they were preparing for that war, Moses said “God is not with you. The spirit of Kadesh Barnea is still ruling you, do not go”. They went and they were terribly disgraced.
One of the forces capable of delaying a man’s destiny is the power of backwardness. The spirit behind backwardness has the power to delay, frustrate, disappoint, waste a person’s time. The spirit of backwardness have the power to tie a person’s life down for a very long time, except the mercy of God delivers that person.
These powers can useless a person’s destiny. It can make a man to start all over again in life. The spirit can cut off a person’s at the edge of breakthrough. The spirit can cause a man to make a regrettable mistake. Likewise, the spirit can make a man to work hard but never allow the person to eat the fruit of his labour.
For example, somebody will be promoted in his workplace today, and tomorrow, the boss of the organisation would be furious about the man’s promotion and says who promoted this man without my consent or approval.
A lot of people are currently under the stronghold of this type of powers we are talking about. Somebody will see himself going to the village in the dream And in the waking life, the man will experience financial attacks.
Somebody will see himself wearing old school uniform in the dream, in the waking life, the person is under bondage. The children of Isealites were in bondage for many years. They were stagnated and faced major setback in Egypt.
The good news is that, God delivered them to the promised land through Joshua. Moses was able to see the promised land but was not allowed to enter into it. So, today, we are going to pray against the spirit of backwardness in our dreams and the spirit of seeing it but never attain it. We will be victorious, in Jesus name.
