Hedging Your Bets

by Lisa Eichelberger

Note: Lisa's teaching on this topic is available here (Part 1) and here (Part 2).
We will keep these videos public for the foreseeable future.

The enemy doesn’t want us to enter into God's promises for our lives. To block us from the fullness of God’s word coming to pass in our lives, the enemy hedges bets against us that we won’t take God at His word. The bets he hedged against us block our view, so we lose our expectations and faith in God's words and restrict what God has for our lives.

The American Heritage Dictionary says a bet is “an agreement between two parties that the one who has made an incorrect prediction about an uncertain outcome will forfeit something stipulated to the other; a wager.”

Bets were placed on the prayers put on record in the Court of Supplications & Acquisitions regarding promises for our lives. I was instructed to remove the bets placed by the enemy, the agreement made with an incorrect prediction, and repent for agreements with the outcome that God’s word would not be completed like He said it would be. The enemy wanted me to agree with his outcome that God’s word would return void in my life. Much like a lien, when the enemy hedges a bet against you, and you agree with him, it prevents God’s word from doing what it was sent to do.

On the ledger in the Court of Supplications, a gold bond appears when the prayer has a bet against it that gets resolved. It is literally and figuratively a “surety bond.” This is not only a bond you can issue, but it is the assurance of heaven that it will be completed. When you have a financial investment with a bank, it is backed by the governing body. There is assurance to protect your assets. His Word is the assurance that He will do what He said. It’s backed by the authority of heaven and the treasuries of heaven that provide all of the resources to outwork His word.

I was also shown that when you sow into something by faith, you add currency as if you were making a deposit. I understood that the entries on the ledger in the Court of Supplication & Acquisition had money deposited by our faith and stewardship of the word He gave us. When you contend for it, stand in faith, watch over it, agree with it, and steward the prophetic words and promises over your life, you add currency to your prayer that you can cash out. We can “cash out” what we’ve sown by faith to “cash in” on our investment.

Just as we can trust that God’s word can be trusted, we also can pull down what has been sown into heaven to “harvest” it as “all bets are off.” As the bets were removed, I was instructed to “cash out” what I had sown in faith from the ledger as evidence of what the Father said and how I agreed with it.

Steps to Address Bets:

1. Request access to the Court of Supplications & Acquisitions
2. Ask to see if any bets are on your ledger
3. Request access to the Court of Cancellations to repent and cancel the bets
4. Return to the Court of Supplications & Acquisitions to cash out the trades
   
   

Courtroom Scenario

Court of Cancellations

I request access to the Court of Cancellations. The enemy has formed a hedge around our ability to see what God is doing in our lives. He has created a shield that blocks us from seeing God’s purposes manifest in our lives. Your honor, He detests the Father and His will and will do whatever he can, legally or illegally, to keep us from advancing into what you have said. The enemy has hedged his bets against us, betting that we will not agree with the word the Father gave us. He made a bet against our prayers and the prophetic words we’ve been watching over that we would not trust that God would perform His word. We are requesting that all bets hedged against us be canceled.

It says in Jeremiah 1:12 that you watch over your word to perform it. You ensure that what you said is completed. In Numbers 23:19, you make good on your word to us.

In each place where we have agreed with the bets the enemy has hedged against, where we have assumed that you would not make good on your word, we repent. Where we have agreed with the enemy's plans against your word and agreed with his bet that we would not agree with what you have said, we repent. We repent for doubting your word, your goodness, your ability to perform what you said, and believing the lie that you do not make good on your promises. We repent for believing that your word would return void in our lives. Please forgive us for doubting your goodness and the assurance of your word. We repent for putting any bets on others or situations by our agreements with the enemy.

We request that the all-consuming fire of God destroy every bet placed against our prayers and every hedge placed around our faith, expectations, and ability to see what you are doing. I request the Lumberjack angels take an axe to the root and tear down the hedge, shielding us from seeing the completion of your word. Please cancel all ramifications, consequences, trades, taxations, and impacts from his bets against us.

Court of Supplications & Acquisitions

I request access to the Court of Supplications and Acquisitions. Based on the work done in the Court of Cancellations, I ask that you remove all bets on our ledger. We do not agree with the enemy's lies that our Father will not complete what He said He would do. We sow our faith as our assurance that He can be trusted to perform His word and His word will not return void. According to your word, you will perform your word. You watch over your word more than we ever could. You ensure that it performs and does as you have instructed it. You make good on what you have said.

I request to cash the check the Father wrote on the words that you have established over our life that are due now! We cash out what has been sown in faith, tears, and prayers to cash out the Father’s supply. All that is available to us on our ledger request would be dispatched for delivery to bring all things to completion based on the following:

Jeremiah 1:12: “Then the LORD said to me, “You have seen well, for I am watching over my word to perform it.”

Numbers 23:19, “God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good and fulfil it?”

Isaiah 55:11 says, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

Heart of the Matter

The enemy loves to create obstacles that separate us from the heart of God. When Eve was in the garden, Satan seduced her into thinking God was not enough to satisfy her. He convinced her that God was incapable of fulfilling her innermost desires. The enemy hedged the ultimate bet against humanity. He bet we would forsake our first love and settle for something that could never satisfy us. When Eve embraced this bet the enemy made, she traded the intimacy we were intended to have with the Father for false intimacy. In essence, she broke our covenant of intimacy with the Father. 

The enemy built a hedge to separate us from the love of the Father and from having an intimate relationship with him. Romans 8:38-39 tells us nothing can separate us from the Lord of God. At the heart of the matter of the bets the enemy has hedged against us, we must first address the bet that God is not enough to satisfy us. There are ramifications to this choice.

Genesis says that Adam and Eve walked in the cool of the day (Genesis 3:8). They enjoyed the richness of intimacy with the Father. After this trade of their intimacy with the enemy, God asked them why they were naked, and they clothed themselves (Genesis 3:9-13). Like Adam and Eve, this bet causes us to lose our intimate connection with the Father.

This agreement that God is not enough to fulfill our innermost desires has driven a wedge between the Father and us. It causes us to reject our first love and His ability to be more than enough for us (Ephesians 3:20-21). Without realizing it, we have rejected what God has for our lives and broken the covenantal promises He has for us, forfeiting the fullness of the rights to our inheritance. That bet can cause us to struggle to receive the promises for our lives. The enemy uses this agreement to create mindsets and forms a false territory in our mind that contradicts the mind of Christ. He also uses this bet to move the boundary stones of our inheritance. Under this bet are double binds that must be removed that keep us in lose-lose situations, never fully able to move into victory.

Steps to Address Bets:

1. Request access to the Court of Cancellations
2. Repent for the bet that God is not enough to satisfy our innermost desires
3. Ask for the hedge, mindsets, double binds, and bets from the enemy to be canceled
4. Request access to the Court of Titles & Deeds to request a constructive trust of a hedge of protection
5. Request access to the Court of Times & Seasons to remove any impacts to your time
6. Request access to the Court of Reclamation to reclaim what was lost
7. Request access to the Court of Supplications & Acquisitions to petition for the boundary stones and hedge of protection to be put in order
   
   

Court of Cancellations

I request access to the Court of Cancellations. Your Honor, the enemy made a bet that we would agree that God is not enough to fulfill our innermost desires. He detests our Father, so he used this bet to form a hedge that keeps us from entering the deepest intimacy with the Father. When we made this agreement, we abandoned our first love and broke our covenant with Him through our unfaithfulness to Him. We worshipped other gods and sought ways to fulfill the innermost desires of our hearts through anything but Him. We request today that all bets hedged against us be canceled, all false territories and systems of thinking in our mind be removed, all double binds tied to these bets be canceled, and that the hedge between God and us be destroyed.

We repent for all agreements with the lies that God, His word, and His promises can’t be trusted. We repent for believing that God could not come through for us and was incapable of fulfilling our innermost desires. We repent for every place where we agreed with double binds and lose-lose situations, accepting them as an inevitable part of life. We repent for each time we agreed with the bets against us and refused to agree with the Father’s promises and perfect will for our lives. We repent for all actions and inactions that have invited double binds into our lives and placed double binds into our DNA, RNA, epigenomes, and recesses of our hearts and minds. We repent for agreeing with the bets hedged against us and for breaking the vows that we made to what was betrothed to us by the Father.

We repent for settling for second best in our lives and accepting a false destiny you did not design. We repent for believing we could find satisfaction from any other place but the Father. Each time we tried to satisfy our desires or find something outside of God to find fulfillment, we agreed with the bet the enemy hedged that God could not fulfill our innermost desires. By embracing something counterfeit, we repent for betraying our heavenly betrothals and innermost desires. We repent for embracing depraved thinking.

We repent for each time we made unwise vows and agreements that broke our heavenly vows and agreements. We repent for agreeing with the mindsets created by double-mindedness and request that the sword of the spirit be used to cauterize all corrupt DNA, RNA, epigenomes, territories, mindsets, and thought patterns that do not align with the mind of Christ. We repent for putting any bets or double binds on others or situations by our agreements with the enemy.

We repent for agreeing with the enemy that we could take matters into our own hands, trust our judgment, and rely on ourselves to make our innermost desires happen. Please forgive us for abandoning our first love because of our broken-heartedness. Please forgive us for serving two masters and for allowing our fear, shame, and trauma to separate us from you, God. Please forgive us for pushing you out of our hearts. Forgive us for rejecting God, His desires for our lives, and His covenant promises for us. Forgive us for making ourselves one flesh with the enemy by forsaking what God has promised us. Forgive us for our profane worship that demonstrated our unfaithfulness to your covenants over our lives. We repent for breaking our covenantal promises with you. Nothing can separate us from your love.

Romans 8:38-39 says, “And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

We repent for the movement of all boundary stones to create space for this false territory in our minds. We ask that all demonic boundary stones inserted in our inheritance and our hearts to make this false territory be removed. According to Joshua 4:20, we further ask that every boundary stone be cleansed and dedicated to the Lord and a memorial built to the Lord Jehovah.

We request that angels move our boundary stones back to their rightful places according to the heavenly blueprint. In each place where the enemy moved our boundary stones to restrict our expansion, we ask that you release your fury upon him according to Hosea 5:10, “The princes of Judah are like those who move boundary stones; I will pour out My fury upon them like water.”

We request that the all-consuming fire of God destroy every bet placed against our prayers and every hedge placed around our faith, expectations, and ability to see what you are doing. We request the cancellation of the false territories and emotions that did not originate from the Father. We repent for where we embraced the false emotion and traded what was our true emotion for what was fake.

We ask for legions of heavenly angels to be dispatched into the portal to the demonic territory in our mind formed by the bets hedged against us. Take captive the legions of demons running the dendrites, trees of knowledge of good and evil, and depraved systems of thinking. We request that this territory be uprooted with the amendment of as if it never were from our realms and territories. Remove all realms and emotions inserted and revoke all permissions of the enemy to torment us any longer.

We request that the heavenly blueprints of our realms and territories that heaven designed be laid out. In each place where there is a misalignment that does not match the blueprint of heaven, release the lumberjack angels to take an axe to the root. Pull out the root systems, operating systems, programs, kernels, ley lines, visible and invisible structures, communication systems, hedges, towers, grids empowering the network, territories, tethers and cords, and all patterns of thinking. Remove every hedge placed around us and between us and God. Please cancel all ramifications, consequences, trades, trading floors, taxations, and impacts from his bets against us, including all double binds.

We request that the algorithm of Jesus Christ be uploaded to destroy all double-minded and divided loyalty or Luciferian programming that is operating, the source code, the operating main frame, and all mainframes it is connected to. We ask the technology angels to tear down every grid and network it is plugged into and all devices hooked up to it. Cauterize the places in our mind where programs are running and restore the mind of Christ to its full capacity, filling every aspect of the territory of our minds. Cauterize any neural pathways formed from the bets, double binds, or programs running and replace them with neural pathways that align with the mind of Christ and agree with the promises He has for our lives.

We ask the angels to take the pink bag to return the innocence and purity of our thoughts, faith, mindsets, and expectations of the Father and His goodness. Restore those places in our mind where we believed that God is not good and His word will return void. We forgive, bless, and release all involved in embracing these mindsets of lose-lose and double-bind situations and hedged bets against us.

Cancel all ungodly frequencies and use the tuning fork to return us to the correct frequencies. Remove all devices the enemy uses to keep these programs running, including all systems, infrastructure, remote locations, signals, jammers, or programmable material. Remove every satanic agent of hell operating in any location and send them to the feet of Jesus.

We request that all seed that was sown from Eve’s trade to produce false intimacy and all fruit that it would ever bear in any generation in any time, in or out of time, in any location would be removed. I further ask that all tares from our harvest field, all fruit that has been harvested or is in the process of coming into its ripened moment, be terminated effectively immediately.

Release the merry maid angels to clean up all spiritual debris from the double binds, double-mindedness, the entire network, and the bets in any part of our realms and tear down all altars. Rebuild them as altars to the Lord Jehovah with the blood of Jesus that continually flows. Please return our mind to the mind of Christ and sever all attachments to this false territory and all the confusion it brings with it. Please clean off our trading floors from all trades made due to these agreements. We choose to forgive, bless, and release all involved.

Court of Titles and Deeds

We request access to the Court of Titles and Deeds. We ask for a hedge of protection to be built around us according to Ps 91: 1-2, 4. Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and fortress, my God, whom I trust.” He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings, you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.”

We ask that this heavenly hedge be placed around our minds to build this constructive trust. We choose to deed over our mind, will, emotions, and all associated territory to the Lord Jehovah.

Court of Times and Seasons

We request access to the Court of Times and Seasons. We ask to remove double binds, bets, evil timelines, and hope deferred from our calendar, timeline, and seasons. Please bring us back into alignment with the Father’s divine time. We request that our clocks, gyroscope, and compass be reset, and we ask for a resetting, re-firing, and recalibration of our Godly timelines so we can connect with our destiny. We ask for every chronometer that is out of sync with heaven's times and prophetic seasons to be adjusted and all foreign timelines, time zones, and entities that have inserted themselves into the timeline of our inheritance to be removed. Adjust any cadence of heaven that is out of sync.

Court of Reclamation

We request access to the Court of Reclamation. We ask for the fullness of our faith and expectations to be returned to us, including our ability to trust in the Father’s goodness. Please review our books and return all that was lost, stolen, or forfeited because of the bets we hedged against God. Please use the Law of Restitution to force the enemy to repay everything stolen from us. I further request the return of the innocence and purity of our trust in our Father. We request that the highest taxation be applied to the enemy.

Court of Supplications & Acquisitions

I request access to the Court of Supplications and Acquisitions. Based on the work done in the Court of Cancellations, I ask that you remove all bets on our ledger.

I ask that all boundary stones be put back in place according to the Father’s blueprint in all our territories and realms. I further ask for a hedge of protection to be built around me.

Psalm 9:9 says, “The Lord also will be a refuge and a high tower for the oppressed, a refuge and a stronghold in times of trouble (high cost, destitution, and desperation).”

Psalm 61:3: “For You have been a shelter and a refuge for me, a strong tower against the adversary.”

Joshua 4:20-24 “And there at Gilgal Joshua set up the twelve stones they had taken from the Jordan. Then Joshua told the Israelites, “In the future, when your children ask their fathers, ‘What is the meaning of these stones?’ You are to tell them, ‘Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’ For the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed over, just as He did to the Red Sea which He dried up before us until we had crossed over. He did this so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the LORD is mighty, and so that you may always fear the LORD your God.”

I further ask that you establish a hedge of protection around me as you did with Job, based on

Job 1:10 “Have you not put a hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.”

Ps 91: 1-2, 4, Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings, you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart

Please put up a hedge of fire around and about us, above and beneath us.

Zechariah 2:5 “Then I, myself, will be a protective wall of fire around Jerusalem, says the LORD. And I will be the glory inside the city!’”
