Dan 10:12,13 Then he said to me, “Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words. “But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.
This is a corporate understanding of guardian advocates of a spiritual realms. Daniel was in the place of prayer for twenty one days (Dan 10:2,3). This is what some of us refer to as Partial fasting . However, Daniel could not receive his answers on time because of a spiritual struggle in the spiritual realms.
On account of his prayers, God had sent an angel to comfort and instruct him. It was until angel Michael came in that the prince of Persia cleared the way and the answers were delivered.
There are two types of delay to a believer’s prayers. One is orchestrated by God for reasons known to him and it is for our good and for His glory. The second one may be as a result of heightened resistance at the spiritual realms.
Apostle Paul declares ” For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” ( Eph 4:12)
And for this reason, we have to put on the full armour of God and deal with every spirit of delay. ” The weapons of our warfare are not canal but mighty through God to pulling down of strongholds. ”
Every spirit that will attempt to resist the manifestation of your answers is defeated in Jesus name!
