Gen 8:20-22, 9:1, 15:1-18, Exo 20:24
• The dominion God said man should have had a prescription which was that there should be an altar.
• As altar on the earth must be made with materials that are earthly.
• If you lose your body, you cannot be an altar of God.
• It is not your spirit that is the mobile altar of the Holy Spirit, it is your body because it has its origins in the earth.
• An altar is a meeting point where spirits and men meet.

Gen 28:12-13, 35:1, 7, Zec 3:3-4
• As long as a filthy garment from an evil altar is on you, no blessing can sit.

LAWS THAT GOVERN ALTARS
1.  All altars have a supervising (guiding) spirit (Judges 6:25)
• Behind every altar is a spirit.
• This spirit ensures that the happenings on the altar must be the same as the happenings in the lives of those who worship the altar.
• For example, you might come across families in which each generation must have a female who will never have a child because she is married to a spirit.

2.  All altars have human administrators (attendants / priests) (1 Kings 13:1-2)
• Not all altars are public.
• Some altars are secret.
• An entire village can have an altar and someone amongst them as a priest and yet most of the people in that village do not know a thing about that.
• In the new testament, we are all priests with daily duties.

3.  All altars are places of rituals (all altars are places of perpetual and repetitive activity)
(Heb 13:9-10, Acts 1:14, 10:4, Dan 10:2-3, 1 Cor 15:58)

• Your inconsistency is a problem in the spirit realm.
• Spirits don’t want your initiative, they want your obedience and cooperation.
• When you repeatedly do what a spirit instructs you to do, you graduate into a covenant.
• Spirits use covenants to fight for or against a person.
• The aim of every spirit is to bring humans into a covenant.
• Covenant is the highest form of agreement.
• Whatever you do that is not repetitive cannot become a covenant.
• Without perpetual repetitive activity, spirits are not impressed.
• What is it that you are doing that God told you to do?
• When a demon interferes with someone doing something for God, that person will begin to feel bored to do what they used to do, feel as if they have done it enough.
• Don’t stop doing what God impressed upon your heart to do, on account of what someone did to you.
• You will never use what someone did to you as an excuse before God for stopping what He told you to do.
• If God tells you to do something for Him, only He can tell you to stop doing that thing.
• If you are not consistent to go to the end, you are not supposed to be awarded.
• Being a child of God is not a defence, there are things you need to do to.
• Before you ask God so many questions, check your commitment and dedication to God.
• Fix your commitment to God and you will discover that many of your problems will drop off.
• What you are doing for God is not in vain, God is the rewarder and  not man.
• satan does not like consistency.

4.  All altars are places of exchange (Gen 8:20-21, Mat 4:8-9, Ps 16:11)
• The cross is a place of exchange.
• Jesus died on the cross so that we can experience the reality of God’s life.
• He died poor so that we can be rich.
• He died naked so that we can be clothed with God’s glory.
• He died young so that we can live long.
• Evil altars project afflictions on people.

5.  All altars are places of covenants (Gen 22:9, 15-18, Ps 50:5)
6.  All altars speak (Acts 10:2-6)
7.  All altars hear (1 Kings 13:2)

8.  A superior altar wins battles over people, issues and territories (1 Sam 5:4-7)
• A righteous altar of God that is not attended to cannot be superior to an evil altar that is activated.
• He died sick so that we can live in health.
• If the evil priest of our family continues to offer sacrifices while you do nothing, forget about victory.9. All altars are powered by sacrifice (John 12:24, Gen 14:14-16)
• What makes an altar superior is power.
• What increases power on an altar is sacrifice.
• If you are not ready to sacrifice yourself, you will not see power.
