Discovering the Courts of Heaven
November 2, 2019Job was a man who was unusually blessed by God, and in Job 1 we find that Satan came before the Lord. Let’s take up the story:
So Satan answered the LORD and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? 10 Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!"(Job 1:9-11)
Satan implied that Job had a special deal with God—“Have you not made a hedge around him, his household, and around all that he has on every side?” (v.10) The implication was that this special deal resulted in special treatment. Satan challenged Job’s integrity in verse 11 saying, ‘But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face.’ We find in the following verses that God did not share Satan’s pessimism of Job’s integrity. What we do learn is that, whether Job possessed a supernatural hedge or not, we see people who seem to possess a supernatural hedge now.
Several years ago I heard Perry Stone teaching about the ‘Hedge of Protection’ and he made an interesting statement. I don’t have the direct quote, but it was to this effect: he felt Holy Spirit had told him that Satan learned from observing Job about the concept of a ‘hedge of protection’ and began to utilize a similar, yet demonic concept on some of his kids.
Think of politicians against whom, although they do wicked acts, no one is able to make any accusations stick, or they are unable to bring that wicked person to justice. I submit that a supernatural hedge has been built around that person via an unrighteous (false) judgment in the Councils (or Courts) of Hell resulting in the ‘Teflon [1] effect’ where nothing can be made to stick. In such cases, we as the edah, need to get that judgment overturned in the courts of Heaven, resulting in the removal of that supernatural hedge which you will learn to do in this book.
Supernatural hedges are the result of false judgments in behalf of a person to position them for levels of power, prosperity, or other things.
An aspect of governmental authority that may be an over-reach is exhibited in the use by some in authority of Executive Orders or ‘memos.’ In the last few years, the will of the people, and/or the will of the legislative bodies legitimately in place have been overridden through the use of Executive Orders or ‘memos.’ These documents signed by the president or various governors, often are in contradiction to already established law and are often a violation of established law.
When witnessing a defiance of established law via the establishment of new laws without going through the proper channels, a false judgment, is involved.
Often these memos or Executive Orders are enacted to circumvent the systems established to provide checks and balances for governments to stand rightly. The church needs to pull its head out of the sand and rise and take their place and deal with these wicked acts!
Much circumventing of established systems or protocols has been witnessed in the United States in the last few years. Not only from the Executive Office, but to those in various levels of Congress, various Cabinet-level leaders, and department heads have we witnessed these evil acts. Only in the Courts of Heaven can lasting change be enacted to change these things.
The hijacking of the primary electoral process in the United States in 2016 had its roots in a false judgment.
