THEME : MY GROUND TO TAKE
Bible Text: Mattew 13 vs 1-15
Memory Verse: Ephesian 6 vs 27
INTRODUCTION:
A ground is a terrain with distinctive formation. Topos is a word commonly used Ground, and origin of the word ground itself. A ground is a platform for actions and set aside placement for something. My ground to take is like a command and a topic that would really open pur minds to what we have access to. A ground is also an area of a territory majorly for companion and dominion.
When we say "My ground to take". This is possesive clause that there something worth for is meant for pull out and possession. Ground are not just taken unless something their is a qualification on the life of that person that guarantee the access. My ground to take is like saying My portion to receive. A portion of stay that we glamour to always have.
This is one of the message of Wal fare that opens our mind to the ground we are loosing and we have failed to take. There is no controversy that grounds are always for stay, when man don't fully dwell on this ground then they are already loosing it. My ground to take is a message that imitate commanding result. Grounds are meant of those that are ready for the take and not just those that sees it from afar. The scripture help us to understand a parable through our Lord Jesus Christ in the Book of Mattew .
Mattew 13 vs 4-8 " And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and the birds came and devored them. Some fell on stony places, where they not have much earth and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth. But when the sun was up, they were scorched band because they had no root, they withered away. And some fell among thorns and the thorns sprang up and choked them. But others fell on good Ground and yielded a crop, some a hundred fold, some sixty , some thirty.
The verse eight (8) of the text said some fell on the good Ground and produced in total one hundred and ninty folds of crops. Those that fell on ground, were the one that things can be taken from. Those that fell on the good ground was the most profitable as the case may be. A ground to take is a ground that would be profitable for exploit and drop things. This was not an ordinary parable, but a parable to show us that some ground are up for takes.
I believe after this reading, you would surely fight for what is surely yours.occupy ds are sacred places that need full dominance and possessions. Grounds may be power, light, possessions, freedom, keys, path ways and even experiences.
As far the Agenda of God is concerned, no place is left void for the devil i.e all places for the children of God. All grounds are ours to occupy , an area of domination for the child of ground, things that are ours to take . Many are already giving up on this ground and which they need not to give up on so easily like that because the bible says in the book of Ephesians 4 vs 27 "nor give place to devil". This is a command from our maker that no place should be made available for devil.
Ground to take requires spiritual keys and His God almighty the right owner of what ground we need. There are certain grounds that are occupiable and some not occupiable. The Lords command is that all ground set by Him is for our takes. There are so manipulated ground the devil has put in place just to deceive people that fall for it .As a child of God we are to open our minds by the light of the word to the ground that is up for our take.
The grounds are still there but the takers are the one lagging behind and Our Lord Jesus Christ said the work load is much but the labourers are few. Where are ground takers?.. Are they closer to the ground they want to take?. Do they even know what they want to take on this ground?.
Christ is the Solid and rocky ground, He is the first ground we need to acknowledge and take first before any other grounds. He showed himself as ground to that many to take because without him as a ground, keys to other ground are not given
Mattew 6 vs 24-25
“Then Jesus said to His s, ‘If anyone
desires to come after Me, let him deny
himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.
For whoever desires to save his life will lose
it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will loose it.
There is a must to take Christ as a ground you must run and take if you have done so. He is the source of every other grounds that up for take. He is the solid rock of Ages, a ground that never fails and till today the ground is still up for take.
There are levels and divisions of Spiritual grounds that's Up for take; Literally they are grounds that we shouldn't give a chance to loose. Grounds for take are fought for , you don't stare a far and expect you gain the grounds. Christ is the Supreme tool you need to take up grounds that's been far away from us.
Caleb a great man of valor cried unto God just for the ground he want to take. The ground that have not taken today is a ground that you haven't fought for.
Caleb inherited Hebron as a ground and in addition God still kept him Alive. God gave him the Mountain before him as an inheritance.
Joshua 14 vs 12 " Now therefore ,give me this mountain of which the Lord spoke in that day; for you
heard in that day how the Anakjm were there and that the cities were great and fortified. It may be that the Lord will be with me and I shall be able to drive them out as the Lord Said". Some grounds already occupied and taken up by Strangers but I believe God almighty would drive them all out for your sake if you're also ready for the battle. Grounds are made for the right takers and we are surely the right takers of all good grounds set forth by Our father who Is in Heaven.Show me you're Ready.
They are gotten by those that are fully ready for it. There are four of this ground that's ready for take and they are,
1. Royal Ground.
2. Praying Ground
3.Receiving Ground
4. Storing Ground
1. Royal Ground :
Royal Ground is a ground of Majesty, a monarch ground or Kingly ground. This is a ground of honor prepared by God for every Child of God. A Royal ground is always a ground of Crown and the first of its kind is the Heaven that Christ himself gas gone to prepare for us. Only those that are qualified for the crown would be given access to step in the ground. It is an holy ground where time doesn't count.
The Kings and rulers of this World has Royal throne and this belongs to a particular diety. Those that are heavenly focused are licensed to this ground of Royalty. A royal is always up for take but anyhow person don't just take this ground. This ground can be fought for on this planet with how much preparation you give to it.
Mattew 6 vs 33 says " But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added to you". It is expedient to seek first this ground because its a ground of Royalty. There should be a contention in your spirit to take this ground of Royalty as your inheritance.
The kingdom of God Is a Royal ground and its has found its preparation right from this World right to Heaven of heavens. You don't say you would obtain this ground when you get to heaven, you make provision for it right from this moment. The royal grounds are ground that need the green light of Crowns on the takers before the ground is theirs. You need a crown before you can be takers of this ground. The crown is the symbolism that there is access on the takers to obtain the ground and fully dominate. The battle of the devil on this ground is not to obtain this crown of access that enable our takings. The devil is aware that crowns are beffiting to the takers that want this royal ground . It's a battle of walfare to inherit this Royal ground. The violent take this ground by force
Mattew 11 vs 12 " And from the days of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom of heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by force ". This ground has been for those that can pull a force and take it. This Royal ground is a battle of Crown and you must always be Kingdom violent continuously to obtain this ground. This ground is up for take and the prince of peace look up to those that want this ground. This World is not a royal ground, you must not fight for it because no crown can be given if you fight for the sake of the world. Jesus made this declaration to Pilate .
John 18 vs 36 " Jesus answered 'MyvKingdim is not of this world. If My Kingdom were of this world, My servant would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My Kingdom is not from here. The ground we are fighting for is not from here but the battle field has started from here till we obtain the crown of Royalty to take this ground.
2. Praying Ground :
Praying ground is one of the ground that is Always most ready for take. The question is where the takers?. Praying Ground is a ground of heavenly communication to the father, a ground that makes you to have free call to the father without any charges. A Praying ground is a battle ground because it is one of most easily loosed grounds. Devil know once you take this ground, you're ready to attack and destroy so many things concerning him.
A praying ground is like an Altar before God. There is always a cementation of heaven signals on that ground because the ground has a connection with the father. It is a ground we must not take with a hand of levity. This is a ground that brings together the trinity because you go this ground with the Holy Spirit, the Son Is the Utterance of the Prayer and The Father is the hearer of all these prayer. The Weapons of our Walfare is given to Us on this ground; for it is impossible to fight a battle without coming to this ground. There are weapons and Kingdom arsenals you get on this ground.
Jeremiah 29:12 "Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you."
The Bible Says and The Lord himself said " you will call upon me ". From what we have said earlier; a Praying ground is ground to call God. He made this affirmation of the word that call upon me on this ground and then solicit for what you want ,is then I will hear you. Thee is also an hearing ear of God on the Praying God. The hearing Ears of God don't leave this ground became he already said that there will I hear you. Many are calling but have not heard from God, the question is are you still on the Praying Ground. Haven't you been shifted from your Praying Ground you seems to be. One of the prove that one is still on the praying ground is the ability to still hear from God
Mathew 6:6"But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you."
Our Lord Jesus Christ gave us the Modesty of How we should Pray. That go into "your Room".. Your Room is your Prayer ground, a secret ground where you claim to know God. Jesus said this to their notice for them to know the format of Prayer. A ground of Prayer is your personal room and ground. Nobody should have access to this ground other than God and you. Work harder to let this ground finally be yours because it would be of great use.
James 5 vs 16 says " Confess your trespasses to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much"
It is Upon this ground we can solicit and intercede for many life's. Its a ground that should always be for take and be our portion. The loser of this ground is a loser of many life's and unknown destines .
In this period of Corona Virus, I had a conviction that Lockdown to a child of God is not when you don't have chance to buy nor exercise your daily activities but the real lockdown is when a child of God does not have access to his Prayer ground again. May it not be heard that we lost our Praying ground to the devil.
3. Receiving Ground
Jesus confirmed this ground in
Mark 11 vs 24b, " believe you've received it".
Receiving ground is a ground that should always be for take too. A receiving ground is a ground where deposited and desired answers are gotten. This is an harvest ground for those that really worked during the sowing. A receiving ground is a post- prayer ground i.e a ground you take when you have accessed and obtained praying ground. This ground is similar to Praying ground but the time it show up is the difference. A receiving is an a very old praying ground that yield results often. Altar of Exchange where God himself is the Ultimate giver on the ground and Men tend to be the receiver.
The Battle of this ground for take is not an ordinary battle, but a battle of to pull forth the harvest we ought to get. This is a battle of walfare from the Kingdom of darkness, to obtain what is ours. This ground come into place as a result of a transformation that your praying ground receive. The continuous push of your Praying ground tend to be a receiving ground; that most of your desired answers tend to be yours .
Daniel had this conviction of Stay in that Praying Ground until what he was looking for came to him. Daniel was hernestly praying on the praying ground, he waited until the request came to him on the ground.
Daniel 10 vs 10-13 " Then suddenly a hand touched me, which made me tremble on my knees and on the palms of my hands. And he said to me, O Daniel ,man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright for I have now been sent to you. " While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling. Then he said to me, "Do not fear Daniel for from the first day that you set your heart to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard and I have come because of your words. But the prince of the Kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty- one days and behold Michael , one of the chief princes, came to help me, for In had been left alone there with the Kings of Persia".
The Praying Ground of Daniel turned to be a receiving ground for him after the Fought and Woj battle. The Angel said from the day Daniel said to understand with his heart and humble before God; that he has been heard. Their is a need to Understand and show a high level of humility to see forth what is coming.
A receiving ground is a ground not only you can fight , but with the Help of Angelic support. The Holy Spirit need to Usher your mind to see how closer what you're receiving is closer to you. People do get tired and leave this ground with ignorance and at the end not receive anything. Keep pressing for this ground and sooner it would be yours, is a must we take this ground. It is a platform to receive and harvest.
Hannah Praying ground turned to be a Receiving ground for her . Shiloh became an harvest ground for Her. Hannah continued to pray to the LORD for a longtime, and Eli watched her lips. She was prayingsilently; her lips were moving, but she made nosound. So Eli thought that she was drunk, and said toher, “Stop making a drunken show of yourself! Stopyour drinking and sober up!” “No, I'm not drunk, sir,”she answered. “I haven't been drinking! I amdesperate, and I have been praying, pouring out my troubles to the LORD. Don't think I am a worthlesswoman. I have been praying like this because I'm so miserable.” “Go in peace,” Eli said, “and may the Godof Israel give you what you have asked him for.” Her Stay and Consistency gave her the Receiving ground.
4. Storing Ground;
Storing ground are always ground for keeping. Question is where on this earth can you store treasure?. In the house where thieves can come, In the bank that Robbers come to blast with ammunitions, Under the ground where moths and rat can eat it them. Where Exactly can Man call a storing ground?. Is there a safe place on this planet to store what you have received?. Reader do you have any one?. Is there a ground you think you have kept to safe assets?. Show me one and I tell you how safe you're
Yes, Surely there is Only One Spiritual ground to store and that ground is Heaven. This ground is a very must ground you must fight for till the very last breathe of yours. A ground that no moths or rat can more near to disturb you of what you kept there. The battle is yours with the help of Christ to surely win this ground. Jesus gave a very strict instructions to His disciples about where to lay and store treasures.
Mattew 6 vs 19-21 " Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven where moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also".
This was a very clear analogy by Our Lord Jesus Christ on the particular type of ground you should store treasure. A pity that many that follow the World keep Expensive Treasures at banks and homes. To some extent insuring this treasures. A way to show that that we are fighting for the wrong ground.Devil knows if even you don't give him chance to have other grounds, he can still rub you of this ground and make you store Richly on it. This World we live is a wrong Storing ground we must not take up. Open the doors of your understanding and let God show you this great mystery that all you're storing can be attached .
Categorically Heaven is the Storing ground, the most secured storing ground for all treasure we rightly get. When God showed me this mystery, I said to myself ; Then what can still earth even store and I found none. Nowhere in this ground is an Ultimate keeper of the treasures we carry. Can Heaven be so filled up not store treasures again?. May it not be heard that such happen. Let Us Center our and fight for this ground because where Our treasure be, there Our heart would also be.
Luke 12 vs 13-21 was story of Rich fool that had ground and yielded plentiful. The crops keep growing and he kept on having harvest but no more store for the crops. But God said to him in verse twenty (20) "You fool!. This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be of you have provided". Though he was rich but was still a Rich fool . We have many of them in the world today,truly rich but still fool just because they have failed to know the right storing ground.
I challenge you today to fight for this ground ,so that the treasure on you can be stored on this ground, the most secured saving ground. It made for your you and I to obtain this ground. The treasure on the ground is not much yet ; Christ is still waiting for the keepers of treasure to come and put down something. What on you may look so precious, but you must still find a way to know the right Storing ground and deposit all you have and had . It is battle of Warfare, fight for yours and store on this ground.
There are two Ways to Regain the Spiritual Grounds you have lost.
1. Repentance
2. Renewal
1. Repentance:
There are two priceless keys for obtaining grounds and taking up grounds. One of this key is Repentance. Repentance is a condition of feeling penitent or remorseful of bad ways. Yes Repentance; this is a very crucial key to gain and take up the four grounds highlighted Above. For no old ways can open new ways. Repentance from the old and sinful ways is a compulsory key to take up grounds. Repentance is a key of Warfare many are not aware of. This is point source of every Spiritual war. Genuine Repentance is a strong key that ground you lincese to the grounds you want to take. It is a greenlight to command grounds and claim the possession of it.
Mattew 9 vs 16 " No one put q piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment ; for the path pulls away from the garment and the tear is made worse ".
Jesus made a simplicity of what combination should be done. Unshrunk (fresh) cloth with old garment can't really go but will eventually wither. The grounds are like Unshrunk cloth, a virgin land that need a new concept a unshrunk takers too. This made it compulsory for a need to Repent from every old ways to be able to take up this grounds.
Act 17 vs 30 " Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent ". The ownership of the ground is granted to those that follow this command of Repentance. Enough of the ignorance that God overlooked. Repentance would open you to the reality of the ground you need to posses and claim.
2. Renewal
Renewal is another key takers in this realm should run for to the peak. Renewal is a Spiritual filling of the mind with new concepRenewa above. It is a Spiritual flushing that Need to happen urgently before the battle of taking grounds takes place. The battle of ground start from the Mind . Once your mind is not ready; you're not ready also for the taking of the ground. It is very germane you understand the mystery of the mind flooring and cementing. For the War don't just start from outside but from inside by the help of the mind as the tool.
Philippians 2 vs 5 " Let this mind be in you which is also in Christ Jesus". Renewal is a process that start from the mind , so be it that Paul told to the Philippians that let this mind be in you as it was in Christ Jesus. The Christ was in Christ to take up grounds. Satan never lost a ground he step into as a result of this Mind he carries. Our Mind is too watery for the ground we acclamitize all the time. We must this mind a way in Us also ; because by this we get renewed. It is battle you find from inside to be able to gain grounds.
Roman 12 vs 2" And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is good and acceptable and perfect will of God" . For you may prove what is that good. You can't claim nor prove your access to gain your ground before God without Renewal. It is a necessity for your appearance before God. There is a supernatural change that must boil in you and make you fit on the road to gain grounds to aspire to have. Its a life span secret. Winners of ground in this realm are renewed minds. Have you mind be renewed Reader?. Check you mind and see maybe the Mind of Christ can be found there?.
:
Grounds are always for takes but the inability to identity this ground has been a major problem. Let us put on the whole amor of God because ground should surely be ours. A battle of war that requires Spiritual Understanding for those that are ready to have it. A continuous fight the above highlighted grounds must be our work rate. Runners in this realm shouldn't get tired of the work and ground ahead of them.
Ephesians 6 vs 11 "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil ".
The wiles of the devil is a big stronghold awaiting some people on their grounds but there is a put on the whole am or of God to gain this grounds. The grounds mentioned above are not physical grounds but a battle in the spirit and which we must be vitorious . Reader hope you have conviction already on the grounds you are not currently accessing. What ground you dont have now must be ground you haven't fought for or haven't won. Don't be tired of getting what belongs to you starting from today.
The grounds is yours take, its your ground to access, its your ground for possession, its your ground of Inheritance. Would you now give out what belongs to you and your generation?. May it Not be heard that you did such.God bless you as you journey on the phase to take up grounds that belong to you
Prayer Point:

3. Father let me hijack my grounds the devil is not willing to give me
4. Father Padlock and let me have access to every ground Enemies found wanted
