INFORMATION: BATTLE STRATEGIES
THE 4 KEY BATTLE STRATEGIES
Jeremiah 29:11 – “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”
Battle Strategy 1: COMMUNITY
Understanding God’s heart for the area you live
2 Chronicles 20:3-4 – “Jehoshaphat was terrified by this news and begged the Lord for guidance. He also ordered everyone in Judah to begin fasting.”
Battle Strategy 2: FASTING
Positions you for breakthrough and aligns you with God’s heart
Battle Strategy 3: PRAYER
Aligning your spirit with what God is already doing
2 Chronicles 20:12 – “We are powerless against this mighty army that is about to attack us. We do not know what to do, but we are looking to you for help.”
Battle Strategy 4: WORSHIP
Strategic surrender that positions you where God can fight for you
2 Chronicles 20:21-22 – “After consulting the people, the king appointed singers to walk ahead of the army, singing to the Lord and praising him for his holy splendor. This is what they sang: ‘Give thanks to the Lord; his faithful love endures forever!’ At the very moment they began to sing and give praise, the Lord caused the armies of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir to start fighting among themselves.”
INSPIRATION: CATCHING THE VISION
The Antioch Blueprint – All 4 Strategies Together
Acts 13:2-4 – “One day as these men were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, ‘Appoint Barnabas and Saul for the special work to which I have called them.’ So after more fasting and prayer, the men laid their hands on them and sent them on their way. So Barnabas and Saul were sent out by the Holy Spirit. They went down to the seaport of Seleucia and then sailed for the island of Cyprus.”
The Pattern:
- Community – Diverse leadership, unified church (v.1)
- Fasting – Active fasting when Holy Spirit spoke (v.2-3)
- Prayer – Laid hands and sent them out (v.3)
- Worship – Creating atmosphere for God’s presence (v.2)
What started in one church’s prayer and fasting meeting became a movement that transformed the known world.
MOTIVATION: POSITIONING FOR REVIVAL
2 Chronicles 7:14 – “Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.”
