VIOLENT FAITH!
by David Wilkerson
[May 19, 1931 - April 27, 2011]

Genesis tells us that the more man multiplied on the earth, the more violent he
became.

“The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with
violence. So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all
flesh had corrupted their way on the earth” (Genesis 6:11-12).

There is another, different kind of violence taking place in this last day.
Indeed, I see a godly people with an aggressive faith being raised up. This
holy remnant is full of Jesus, loving Him with all their hearts. These
believers see a mad devil coming at them with everything in his power and they
know they have more of hell to face than any other generation before them.

Jesus said: "The kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by
force" (Matthew 11:12). This remnant is going to rise up and say, "I'm not going
to let the devil steal my joy and peace. I will not let him plant seeds of
grudges, murder, hatred or violence in me. No! I'm going to rise up in Jesus'
power and live victoriously above this demonic filth."

Dear saint, God wants to put a fight in you! If you have been guilty of any of
these forms of violence, quickly repent before the Lord and obey His Word.
That's all He asks. May God put a holy zeal and faith in you beyond anything
you have ever known. He wants you to be able to stand against Satan's wicked
devices.

The only spirit of violence we are going to have is a violent faith. It will be
a strong, holy violence that comes full force against the gates of hell and the
strongholds of the enemy. And, by the power of God, we will bring them all down
in Jesus' name!
