Praying the Heavenlies - Rusty Russell - Bog

"The following is God's revelation, as a soldier in Christ, why we need to Pray, Fast, and stand upon the Word of God in binding the earthly and heavenly authorities. Over the last fives years of liberation ministry, my theology has had to explain the spiritual promises inherited in Christ. I have come face-to-face with demons, witches, cocaine filled demoniacs, attempts upon my life, and spiritual attacks by territorial forces. I found that I needed to learn to Pray, Fast, and seek the Word for His will. I wanted to learn more about God's spiritual warfare and how I could better fight in His army. The battle we wage is not just a horizontal three dimensional fight, but we must pray the heavenlies in order to enlist the fourth dimension. The upward spiritual prayers enable us to seek God's will, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the authority of Jesus Christ. This is when God enlists the angels on our behalf to bind up the evil.Prayer is our weapon to battle the dark forces. As I share the stories of God's great protection and deliverance from evil, I hope to convey some practical principles that will assist you in wrestling the world rulers. These experiences have taught me this one thing, the heavenly battles belong to the Lord. It is my desire that you will take a step in learning the Why's? and the How's? of pursuing God through Prayer, Fasting, and the Word. It is only through unified prayers, fasting, and standing together that we are able to raise the shield of faith in defeating the enemies flaming arrows."
