Scripture: 2 Samuel 16:23

2 Samuel 16:23 gives us a glimpse of why David had to pray the way he did. Verse 23 says, “Now the advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one had inquired at the oracle of God. So was all the advice of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.” Ahithophel’s council would have given Absalom victory over David. Consequently, David’s intercession had to be for Ahithophel’s removal. When we see individuals arise governmentally that are set on bringing destruction to the church, our purpose for our harvest demands that we pray judicially for their removal. God does not have to terminate them; He can remove them from office. Any way it happens, the cutting off of all influence and the absolute removal of their ability to legislate wickedness is essential. We have a responsibility to move the Hand of God covenantally. That is what the Key of David does. That is what it is. It is bringing Jesus on the scene so the enemy is put under our feet. This is what it means to walk in the Kingdom. A Kingdom saint has a Kingdom mindset, and that mindset is to extend the rule of Christ in the earth. If we are not extending the rule of Christ we are not advancing the Kingdom. It is time we renewed our mind to a Kingdom mindset so that we are praying the rule of Christ.
