Scripture: First Samuel 7:15-17
First Samuel 7:15-17 says, “So Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life. He went from
year to year on a circuit to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah, and judged Israel in all those places.
But he always returned to Ramah, for his home was there. There he judged Israel, and there
he built an altar to the LORD.” The Hebrew word translated “judged” in verse 15 is the
Hebrew word shaw-fat. Shaw-fat is the root word for mish-pawt. Mish-pawt is the anointed
declaration of a shaw-fat so if you were called to the office of the Judge in Israel, what the
Holy Spirit moved on you to proclaim as a judgment became a mish-pawt. When God is
looking for those who keep mish-pawt, we have to understand that He is looking for those
who will rise and accept the anointing to prophetically proclaim what He wants to do as a
judgment of the Lord.
PRAYER
Psalm 55:9 Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues…. The scepter of the wicked will not
remain over the land allotted to the righteous…. Psalm 125:3, NIV Let all the earth fear the
Lord, Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. For He spoke, and it was
done; He commanded, and it stood fast. The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to
nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands
forever, The plans of His heart to all generations.
