Arrows of Truth # 8 - What is the 1st step of the Hunters strategy? (Part 3)

The 1st step of the Hunters strategy is to strengthen yourself in the Lord. What do we mean by strengthen ourselves in the Lord? Unless we are strengthened for our engagement with the dropout, we will end up spiritually exhausted and cease our pursuit of restoration for them.

This step consists of three distinct facets of your spiritual walk:

1. Be filled with the Spirit

2. Consistent Prayer

3. Praise

Last week we looked at #2. This week we will examine the 3rd aspect - Praise.

Praise and worship must become an integral part of our daily life. The scriptures are so full of references to this subject that it should be understood. Yet many believers have little thought of praising God except in church. We must learn to continually praise God especially in adversity.

Praise brings joy, and the joy of the Lord is our strength (Ne 8:10).

Without strength we cannot resist the devil.

If we don't resist the devil, he will not flee (James 4:7).

If the devil doesn't flee, we cannot overcome in the face of trials.

If we don't overcome, we are not conformed to the image of Christ. To be conformed to the image of Christ and have the kingdom of God established in our hearts -- righteousness, peace, and joy (Rom 14:17), we must praise Him continually.
