Innocence, the Beginning to Spiritual Victory

Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. (Psa 8:2)

What are the things that proceed from our mouth? Does it cause a stir to the spiritual environment in which we speak into (Matt 21:15), or the devil isn’t too bothered. The Father is looking for children in His quiver that has the spiritual stature to unashamedly ‘speak with the enemies in the gate’ (Psa 127:5) and to ‘possess the gate of his enemies’ (Gen 22:17).

Babes are not those who have towering physique nor exceptional vocal volume, but a company of believers that have the innocence, not in the sense of ignorance but in the sense of harmlessness (Matt 10:16) or gentleness (Php 4:5). Untainted by the world and living the realm of the Father’s love; whose eyes are fixed and unfazed by the glitter of the temporal (Psa 123:2). Suckling that feed on one life giving source (1 Pet 2:2), whose palate has not touched that which defiles. It is from such mouths that the Lord can use to still the enemy and the avenger unto spiritual victory.

Have we been winning spiritual battles lately? If not, check out what do we regard in our heart (Psa 66:18) and our secret desires (Prov 9:17). Not only God know, the devil does to.
