Beware Saul’s Armour

Many in the Body of Christ are battle weary, tired, weighed down by armour that’s heavy and doesn’t fit. The Spirit of the Lord says, “Sons and daughters, many of you are burdened and contained by the expectations of well-meaning people, by outdated traditions that have no place in the life I have called you to live. Do not ‘borrow’ what may have worked well for others. For it will not bear fruit in your life in the days ahead.’

‘You are My children – the ones led by the Spirit of God.  Have I not made a way for victorious living in the power of the Holy Spirit?  Trust in who I have called you to be and how I have shaped and formed you. Your life experience, gifts and character are unique to you. Each one is special.

In every situation where there is ground to be taken or an enemy to defeat, listen to Me. Allow My Spirit to lead you in new ways, with bespoke strategy to gain the victory. These are days of acceleration and change, and outdated methods will no longer prevail.” 

1 Samuel 17:38-39 (NLT) Then Saul gave David his own armor—a bronze helmet and a coat of mail. David put it on, strapped the sword over it, and took a step or two to see what it was like, for he had never worn such things before. “I can’t go in these,” he protested to Saul. “I’m not used to them.” So David took them off again.
