ISAIAH 14:12-17
No good
thing comes easy. In fact if something comes too cheap and easy, you may have
cause to suspect it and make sure it's really from God.
Jesus calls the devil a strong man who will ensure that all he has stolen is kept intact (Luke 11:21). In fact, verse 17 of our reading says: “...who did not open the house of his prisoners?” This means that Satan's plan is to lose none of his captives. He does not want you to go free from whatever trap he has caught you in. anyone he has afflicted with sorrow, sickness or poverty must maintain the status quo. Any one he has tied down to sin must continue sinning. That is why, to break free from him, you must exert force, because he won't let you go easily.
Over a long period, God sent Moses to King Pharaoh to let his people go. But he refused. Even today, the Pharaoh responsible for poverty, financial difficulty, barrenness and retrogression is not ready to let you go – except, of course, by force. “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.” (Matthew 11:12).
Those who desire to receive good things from the Lord must be spiritually violent. They must never accept 'No' for an answer. They must be dissatisfied with situations in their lives and be ready to take the battle to the gates of the enemy, so as to effect a change.
Stop sitting down and looking without doing something. Arise! Take up your spiritual armour and resist the devil. Bind him and loose his grip over your finances and family. Begin to call forth your blessings to come to you in the Name of Jesus.
Claim all your blessings from wherever the enemy has hidden them. Do not rest on your oars until you have all that is yours. As Satan persists in keeping you from your blessings, resist and receive your blessings – and persist in retaining them, too.

LUKE 11:22 -But when a stronger than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he
takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils.
