Introduction: A New Mandate
God is giving a new mandate to not only raise up the tribes of Jacob and restore the preserved of Israel, but also to be a light to the Gentiles, becoming a representation of salvation to the ends of the earth. This involves an increase in capacity and influence, signifying a move into a realm of dominion and rulership.
Understanding Dominion
Dominion is defined as absolute control, rulership, and the ability to be in charge, extending beyond mere authority over people to include power over the forces of darkness. The "horns" that have scattered Judah, representing powers that have hindered joy, prosperity, and spiritual life, will be terrorized and displaced by God's "smiths" or workmen. This year will mark a contention of light over darkness, leading to the practical displacement of Satan in believers' lives and families.
The Power of Light
A great light has come to those in Naphtali and Zebulun, with distant shores and islands set to witness this light. This light empowers believers to arise and compel darkness to submit, causing the "horns" that have terrorized people and families to give way.
Ruling in the Midst of Enemies
The Lord will send a dimension of the Holy Spirit, symbolized by a "rod," that will open people to light, enabling them to rule in the midst of their enemies. This signifies a year of tangible demonstrations of power, where believers can speak and see immediate change, with encounters leading to spiritual transformation and breakthroughs.
Authentic Blessing and Dominion
Authentic blessing extends to family members, contrasting with selfish Christianity. Dramatic breakthroughs will be seen in homes, signifying the devil being underfoot. Teaching is crucial because, as Hebrews 2 indicates, we do not yet see all things under subjection, highlighting the need for light to enforce dominion.
Enforcing Dominion Through Light
Authority has been given over all the works of God's hands, preventing enchantments and curses from prevailing. While God's perspective is that all things are under subjection, the current reality is that we do not yet see this fully. Light is essential to access and enforce this dominion, enabling believers to rule both day and night.
