If you are unfamiliar with the Courts of Heaven, I recommend you pick up Praying Medic’s booklet “Defeating Your Adversary in the Courts of Heaven;” it’s about 5 dollars. Following his 7-step protocol on page 39 is how I started operating in the courts. You can also find all kinds of YouTube videos on the topic for free. Robert Henderson may be one of the first to popularize the topic and Dr. Ron M. Horner has also been quite prolific in writing about the courts and making videos. I don’t agree with everything they teach but I suspect if you agree 100% of the time with anyone, you probably haven’t thought it through. That includes me. So, let’s agree to disagree, agreeably. Put another way, don’t choke on the bones, spit them out and eat the meat. I recommend putting ideas you don’t agree with on a shelf and not discarding them. As you learn and grow you may find them useful in the future. If you feel that you need to understand everything before moving forward, then working in the courts may not be for you. English is not the language of heaven and there does not seem to be a one to one correspondence with everything on earth and heaven. Ideas don’t have to be correct to be useful.
This will not be an introduction to the Courts of Heaven, so do your homework. I have been working in the courts for the better part of 10 years. Over the years I dealt with thousands of demons of one kind or another. I find that I have specialized in contract law. Claims by the accuser are easily dealt with, so much so that I expect to win every time. What I intend to pass on to you are the insights from my experiences not my specific methods. The court system is huge, and you can utilize it in a number of different ways, I encourage you to take advantage of it when appropriate. The courts are not the answer to every problem, but Jesus is. I believe that for many of you, the firmer foundation you have in operating in courts, and therefore the heavens, the more effective you will be in your callings and ministry.
When I was young my dad would have me help him when he was working on the car or some project around the house. I don’t know how much help I was but in retrospect I learned more than I realized at the time. Working together created a bond, an understanding of my dad that I would not have otherwise developed. I think it’s the same with the Lord. The world isn’t going to fall apart if I don’t perform however the time that we spend together, getting to know one another, that’s valuable. It may sound silly, He knows all but I don’t. Working with Him has formed in me a relationship with Him I could have developed in no other way. One of the outgrowths of that is the ability to hear “that still small voice” we read about in the bible. He doesn't wait for me to ascend or meditate or even be quiet and listen, sometimes I just hear Him, because He is always with me. God is one and a trinity, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are three different persons, and we have the opportunity to get to know each one of them through direct experience. I highly recommend you take advantage of the opportunity.
Here are some of the things I cover when working with others:
- There are 11 courts and a healing center in the middle of the court system.
- When helping someone else they must Always be in the court with you, mostly.
- Just because something is seen in the court does not mean it’s relevant, sometimes people bring in personal baggage.
- When in doubt, ask the Lord.
- You are responsible for the revelation that you have.
- The courts have there own protocols, let them work for you, remember, the battle belongs to the lord.
- The demons try to claim ownership. They present agreements and contracts but they never hold water because “The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness there of…”. I think it was Bill Johnson said that by embracing the lie, you empower the liar. Demons primaraly have lies and fear, don’t fall for their tricks.
- There are a lot more kinds of beings in heaven than just angels.
- Heaven is a big place, learn your way around, at least in your own neighbor hood.
- Time does not work the same in heaven as on earth.
- You have tools in heaven, learn to use them to be more effective on the earth and in heaven.
- Destinies can be handled in the courts.
- Jesus’ love language is obedience, love is a behavior and therefore a choice.
- Intention is paramount and forgiveness is not optional.
- Appellate courts, amicus brief, double jeopardy, standing in the court, and point of order are some of the terms that you may find helpful as you navigate the courts.
- There is a kind of demonic society and court system in the kingdom of darkness. Once you know what you are working with they are easy to overcome.
- We will cover salvation and blood covenants and why winning in the courts is a slam dunk.
- Christ, the Cross, the Lamb of God, Christ and Him crucified, His Blood these are all referring to the same blood covenant, our victory in Christ.
- Learn the names of God and how to use them in your prayers. Each of his names reveals something about Him.
- Your understanding of your identity is not yet fully realized, expect it to change over time and then change again.
- I operate using working theories, as I learn more, I adjust my theories accordingly.
- I find I prefer a good question to an answer because as I grow my answers sometimes change.
- Make honest mistakes and you will not be punished but there may be consequences.
- As you follow the Lord you are going to run into situations and things that are above your pay grade, fear not, I have found God very faithful in picking up the slack.
Once I show you the way, you will be able to enter the spirit, the courts or if you prefer, accent into the heavens on your own. Yes we are going. If I can drag a demon into the courts then I can guide you into the courts, if you are willing. Come and see.
