*Taking Over Nations* (IX)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."* (James 1:4 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Another force that is required if we must take over nations, is the force of patience, perseverance and long suffering.
There can be no lasting impact that will influence your world without these trio. Patience will teach you not to expect fast response when someone you are hoping to win over is proving difficult.
Perseverance will teach you to keep forgiving and loving someone who needs your guidance but acts like you are a nobody.
Longsuffering will keep you going, when all efforts seems wasted and all years of labour of love seem fruitless or slow in bringing results.
In the end, Jesus understood that though he spent over three & half years doing good works, men would still chant "Crucify Him"; his own disciples will deny him at some point; he would still need to ask God to forgive them on the cross; and as if that was not enough, he would have to be appearing & dissapearing for extra 40 days just to be sure His disciples don't go back into the world as fishermen, instead of fishers of men.
_MEDITATION:_
*Jesus would never have succeeded if he hadn't all three precious and now rare virtues-- patience, perseverance and longsuffering.*

*Taking Over Nations* (VIII)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God."* (Colossians 4:12 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Taking over nations is not a carnal activity like carrying out a military coup. This is spiritual and deal with spiritual forces and principles.
To take over nations, we must engage the force of prayer. We cannot take over, wield control, or advance positive changes without the intervention of God's hands and power.
God who controls a river's flows and directions can also influence and impress upon the minds of people or even an entire system or control.
The force of prayer is a powerful tool that brings this overriding moves or operations of God into reality.
When we pray, we make power available. And when power is available, human minds bends in response to the one who have secured this presence of God that changes things and people supernaturally.
One of the greatest secrets of taking over nations remains the secret place. A man who is too much in the secret place will be too much in taking over nations.
_MEDITATION:_
*Let us pray that we may pray so that we are not preyed upon by powerlesness!"*

*Taking Over Nations* (VII)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing."* (1 Corinthians 13:3 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
To take over nations, the force of charity or love and compassion cannot be overemphasized.
You cannot take over, or wield influence if you don't have and apply love.
Many people will never achieve the level of impact God have destined to all because of their inability to walk in love without inhibitions and hesitations..
The love Ruth showed towards Naomi and her God, was the key or central to Ruth's fulfillment of purpose.
The Love that David showed towards God and God's people, was first revealed in his diligence and willingness to fight a bear and a lion all because of his Father's sheep that was kept in his custody. God recognized his heart of love and called him, a man after God's own heart!
Jesus is the greatest example of love of all times. Therefore we cannot succeed in taking over nations if we don't persist and abound in walking in love.
_MEDITATION:_
*And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.* 1 (Corinthians 13:13 (KJV))

*TAKING NATIONS FORCEFULLY* (VI)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"For this very reason, adding your diligence [to the divine promises], employ every effort in exercising your faith to develop virtue (excellence, resolution, Christian energy), and in [exercising] virtue [develop] knowledge (intelligence)"* (2 Peter 1:5 (Amplified))
_Bible Insight:_
The force of dilligence is not negotiable. Spiritual dilligence is required for those that forcefully advance the kingdom. Those who lack diligence will be unable to stand the test of time.
2 Peter 1:5 (KJV says *"And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge"* and a list of other things that will ensure that *"an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ."* (2 Peter 1:11 (KJV))
This describes the pattern of force or violence needed.
The narrow way & gate that describes the path of the kingdom, will be too much of a trouble for those who lack diligence. Why bother with a lonely, steepy, difficult and no nonsense narrow road or gate when there is a broad gate with a broad way that says come and remain as you are and don't ever be bothered with anything that does not make you happy?
*"Go in through the narrow gate. The gate to destruction is wide, and the road that leads there is easy to follow. A lot of people go through that gate. But the gate to life is very narrow. The road that leads there is so hard to follow that only a few people find it."* (Matthew 7:13-14(CEV)
When you face the kingdom with the force or violence of dilligence you will be rewarded in due course. Don't be discouraged.
_MEDITATION:_
*But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.* (Hebrews 11:6 (KJV))

*TAKING NATIONS FORCEFULLY* (V)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven has endured violent assault, and violent men seize it by force [as a precious prize--a share in the heavenly kingdom is sought with most ardent zeal and intense exertion]."* Matthew 11:12 (Amplified)
_Bible Insight:_
The kingdom of heaven presents a scenario of the survival of the most spiritually violent and forceful. What does this mean?
The heavenly kingdom is like a precious prize to be sought with most ardent zeal and intense exertion. It calls for selflessness and total pursuit and focus.
It is not a place to be entered casually nor mistakenly or unseriously. The one who understands the violence or force that the kingdom requires, must first comply to that demand. The force of selflessness is key! Likewise the force of passion or zeal.
The one who advances (moves or runs) forcefully towards the kingdom, will also advance the kingdom forcefully. The world system will not permit a forceless or easy ride into the Kingdom. It takes force to stay the course!
Denial of self, as Jesus demanded, is an essential level of force required. And selflessness reveals how much passion you have developed in the pursuit of the kingdom.
Matthew 16:24-25 (KJV) Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
The one who takes nations forcefully for God's kingdom must himself first be forcefully advancing towards the Kingdom, and by so doing be advancing the kingdom for others to take part in!
_MEDITATION:_
*The kindgom demands that we get rid of self and self love. Those who care for self (and by extension the cares of this life) will not be capable of developing and sustaining the force or violence that takes the kingdom*
