*TOPIC: DON'T WAIT, PURSUE OVERTAKE AND RECOVER ALL.*(Series 9) *Scripture Reading:* 1 Samuel 30:8 *"David inquired of the Lord, saying, “Shall I pursue this band [of raiders]? Will I overtake them?” And He answered him, “Pursue, for you will certainly overtake them, and you will certainly rescue [the captives].”*(AMP) We're still looking at what to do to reclaim what belongs to you: *2) Pursue:* To pursue is to follow urgently, originally with intent to capture or to chase. After David inquired from the Lord, and the Lord instructed him to pursue the enemy, no more waiting, no more sitting, no more thinking.*"So David went, he and the six hundred men who were with him, and came to the brook Besor; there those [who could not continue] remained behind."*(9 AMP). If you’ve ever been the recipient of a great pep talk, you know the feeling you get when it’s over. You’re ready to get out there and make it happen! It somehow gives you a surge of energy and enthusiasm that can’t be quenched by anything other than taking action. That’s what happened to David when he encouraged himself in the Lord. He went to the Lord and asked, *“Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?” And God said, “Pursue…”*(1 Samuel 30:7-8, NKJV). For David, to pursue meant to gather his men, gather information about his enemies, then attack them until they were all defeated. What does pursuing look like in your situation? *If the devil has stolen your health, your sleep and your peace, how can you begin to pursue? You begin by making a decision that you’re not going to camp out where you are and settle for his thievery. You’re not going to tolerate it any longer. Instead, you’re going to take up arms and go get your health back! Or your finances, relationship, opportunity or anything else he’s stolen.* Your weapons are the Word of God, the words of your mouth, and the knowledge of your authority over all the powers of darkness. *It comes from a place of feeling power, rise up on the inside of you, then determining to operate fully in that power.* To be continue tomorrow morning by God's Grace. Good morning and do have a great Friday, peace. *Prayer point:* I pursue my enemies, I overtake them and recover all my stolen blessing, wealth, blessings, virtues , glory and destiny in Jesus Christ name. Amen! T.S. AFOLAYAN
