"You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones. You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you.
Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones." Ezekiel 28:14-16
When we talk about sacrifice, we are talking about having your complete life on the altar.
When we talk about the altar, we are talking about the mountain and when we talk about the mountain, we are talking about material, physical, emotional and family success; above all, we are talking about a place where it doesn’t matter if you are a member, an assistant, a pastor or a bishop, you will be safe and shielded from every satanic attack.
On the mountain (the altar) we are powerful warriors; we can leap over walls and destroy great armies.
However, the devil is constantly trying to prevent people from climbing the mountain (the altar), and tirelessly working towards removing those who managed to make it up there one day and were able to establish their lives. Why?
It's simple. In the beginning, the devil lived on God’s holy mountain. But one day, he was expelled.
He knows what happens when SOMEONE sacrifices their whole life on the mountain.
Therefore, assistants, pastors, bishops, wives and members: the mountain is the place the Lord sanctified for His "chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people..." (1 Peter 2:9)
It is a place where, even if all of hell joined forces, they couldn’t possibly defeat you.
Praise God!
