Psalm 68 “God! Arise with awesome power”
David opened this Psalm by invoking the Person and Power of God to act on his behalf. He was not going to settle for the Omni-Presence of God, He desired for His Manifested-Presence because it is possible for Him to be there and not do anything if you do not ask Him. In Matthew 4:38, the Bible gives the account of when Jesus was inside the boat, sleeping with his head on a pillow. There was a mighty storm and the disciples were on the verge of drowning, but He did nothing because they did not ask Him. This is one of the wrong assumptions a lot of believers make – the imagine that since God is already aware of their needs and they are guaranteed His abiding Presence, that should be fine. Go beyond that level. Call upon Him to stir up Himself and act.
In Psalm 35:23 the Word says, “Stir up thyself, and awake to my judgment, even unto my cause, my God and my Lord”. Heaven always needs somebody to break the silence of complacency and invoke the power of God the power of the Lord to shift the present circumstance and birth long-awaited miracles in the earth realm.

You see every victory comes at the cost of battle. No one understands this more than David. Right from his teenage years when he confronted Goliath till he took his last breath, he was always at the center of different oppositions. It wasn’t like David was always looking for trouble. However, when you have a distinctive assignment of greatness in your life, there will be many hurdles and adversities on the way and you will have no choice but to brace yourself and deal with them in the strength of God. This is indicative of the oppositions that all of God’s people still deal with today. Unlike David, we may not be dealing with the brawling of physical battles, but we face the same adversary – satan and he camouflages in modern different shades and colours using weapons such fear, abuse, doubt, negative media, addiction, depression, poverty, sickness and diseases to combat God’s people in these modern times.
God has called you to victory over every onslaught of the enemy that you might be facing. Like David, you too shall prevail and fulfill the call of God in your life. Notice how David did not assume that those enemies were his own enemies. Rather, he labelled them as God’s enemies. When God arises with awesome power, every one of His enemies will scatter in fear. When you are aligned with God, your enemies become His enemies and the forces of darkness which come against you will have to answer to God. Victory in this regard is not about activity but identity and positioning. Many are trying to battle life’s confrontations outside of the provisions of victory in Christ and they soon realize that no strategy in the arm of the flesh will prevail. God has orchestrated His will in your life and He requires your partnership to execute it. As you sit at His right hand, your enemies become your footstool. As you set the Lord always before you and give him preeminence in your life, you shall not be moved. The God-Haters speak of everything that is working against the will of God in your life such as fear, demonic and witchcraft spirits, territorial forces of darkness – all of them are chased away and become non-existent as you move into a high-level alignment with God. This is your day of victory.
