Now is the time to realize that the Lord desires to empower us to move from our current ability to a new level of power strength, or a greater ability of potential in the Lord. This increase is not a one-time touch but a constant and ever-increasing flow of the spirit of might. It will empower us to press through any and all obstacles, limitations, and fears to advance with a perseverance of progressive breakthrough in order to take new levels in God's PURPOSE for our life.
When we stay
Romans 10:9 - "If you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."
Confession without any faith in the heart is powerless; it's useless.
What if I don't believe in my heart? Should I still confess the Word of God?
Yes, because with my lips, I can make confessions unto faith. In other words, as I say God's word over and over again, faith can be built in my heart where before there wasn't any faith.
I
Psalm 91:10 - "Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—the Most High, who is my refuge —no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent."
To be intentional means to have a purpose in doing what we are doing. It also means we should have a specific goal (outcome) in mind when we do something. The need for increased spiritual warfare in this season goes without saying in light of what the enemy is trying to do with sickness, disease, and fear in all the world
God's desire is that we fully understand who we really are in Him and the extent of the calling on the lives of His saints. The call is immense – full of His "kabod" glory, and it is vital to our covenant DESTINY in Christ that we have His revelation on the fullness of the call in this incredible hour we are chosen to serve Him in.
"...according to the power of God, who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace whi
Genesis 3:11 - "And He said, Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?"
By taking the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, they found a source of the knowledge of right and wrong outside of God. This can be identified as the principle of reasoning.
They no longer needed the wisdom of God; They could govern themselves according to their sense of right and wrong. This is why God questioned them "who to
Galatians 6:9 (TPT), "And don't allow yourselves to be weary or disheartened in planting good seeds, for the season of reaping the wonderful harvest you've planted is coming!"
The Lord is encouraging you to not grow weary but to continue on in faith, knowing He is faithful, for your season of harvest is ahead. According to Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 we know that God ordains times and seasons in our lives.
The Lord is reminding you of past victories where you have seen Him move on your b
What would you do with the might of His Spirit? Would you allow it to flow out of you? Would you allow it to change you, and raise you up in His own glory?
Do not let man cause you to fall, to slumber, or to come halfheartedly before His throne. But press forward, and come in boldly, for you have an appointment through His Blood.
Let His Blood come and transfuse back to you the might of His Spirit, so you too can do signs and wonders, and come to the understanding of who you are, and w
John 21:6 - "And He said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes."
It's time to cast our nets – our way of thinking – outside of the norm and into the realm where the FAITH OF JESUS exists (Romans 3:22; Galatians 2: 20 KJV; Ephesians 3:12). We purposefully go deep in the waters with the Holy Spirit until we perceive the LORD is in our midst and receive His mind and HIS fa
There is a river of healing life which flows directly from the throne of God in Heaven. Its healing and restorative properties bring life to everything it touches and this river is designed by the Father to heal the nations.
"Then the angel showed me a river with the water of life, clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb. It flowed down the center of the main street. On each side of the river grew a tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, with a fresh crop each
Isaiah 30:15 - "In quietness and confidence shall be your strength."
Dew is released when all is still. Rest occurs when we enter into God's purpose for our life.
If we will get still before the Lord, we will receive the revelation and strategy to move forward out of the hassles, anxieties and warfare that have sapped our strength in the past season. "But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be
Matthew 12:37 - "For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned."
AFFIRMATIONS:
Today!... I make up my mind that I'm going to speak life to my situations and circumstances. I am going to the word of God to find out what He has to say about me and my situation, and I'm going to say what He says.
Today!... I curse the wrong words I've spoken over my life and begin to speak the words of life I'm supposed to speak.
Prover
Esther 4:14 - "... and who knows whether you are come to the kingdom for such a time as this."
You were made for such a time as this. You have become completely unafraid of what man might say. You will release a trailblazing fire behind you as you advance forward. You have hung onto the thread of the hem of His garment with all that you have left, and this was the best place to be. You have chosen to remain with God and haven't let Him go.
You are about to enter a time where you
"And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, 'Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?' that is, 'My God, My God, why have you forsaken Me?'" Matthew 27:46
Many believers have recently stepped with the Lord into the great unknown transitioning from one season to the next; a courageous step of obedience.
Yet, so many who have stepped obediently into that moment with great faith have also suddenly felt forsaken while they stand upon the waters of the deep. The journey of promi
"And it shall come to pass at that time, [that] I will search Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their heart, The LORD will not do good, neither will He do evil." - Zephaniah 1:12 KJV
"Settled", according to Strongs Concordance, means to become dense. "Lees" means dregs, old settlings! When our hearts do not believe that the Lord is moving in our lives, we turn to other things and become dense, settled and lukewarm. Jesus strongly warns of
Joshua 10:12,13 - "Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel: 'Sun, stand still over Gibeon...The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.'"
Maybe you've wanted to give up because no matter how hard you try, you still seem to feel powerless over taunts and attacks; living under the circumstances and not above them. This is where the sun stands still on your behalf! This is where you witness Almighty God fighting for you! There has been so much ta
John 17:16,17 - "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth."
We've been placed in another world; our citizenship is in heaven.
We are to live by heavenly principles, and one of those principles is that of framing our world with the word of God.
We don't confess what we don't have -- we confess what we desire to have.
We don't talk about what we can't do -- we talk about what we can do through Christ wh
Revelation 3:8 - " I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut."
The key is seeing the door and walking through it by "His faith" -- He is the author and finisher of our faith...real faith; faith that comes by hearing and hearing His Word.
There are other things that we are embracing in our hearts and minds which are displacing the fullness that must be in place to confess in full faith. We must believe for fresh grace to put our house in order and see ourselves a
Be aware that the enemy would come with distraction after distraction only to rob you, and deposit within you despondency and numbness putting you in a sense of shock and longing -- not know which way to go -- to the left or to the right.
In times of trouble, call in His presence, for where you are His presence is. Do you not understand 'The Hope of Glory' that is within you? Do not look to the exterior. Do not look outward. Don't look around. Look in. Let His presence, let His strength,
Romans 12:2 (TPT) - "Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God's will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in His eyes."
The mind of the Body of Christ is the wineskin that must now become new to contain His new wine. The mind must be renewed and refashioned to withstand the challenges of the new season in order to rightly
Luke 11:13, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him."
In the story of the prodigal son where the father killed the fattened calf and gave the returned son the signet ring and the robe -- the elder brother was hugely upset and complaining. The father's response to the elder son was, "All I have is yours..."
Luke 15:31, "And he said to him, 'Son, you are always with me, and a
2 Corinthians 3:18 (TPT) - "We can all draw close to Him with the veil removed from our faces. And with no veil we all become like mirrors who brightly reflect the glory of the Lord Jesus. We are being transfigured into His very image as we move from one brighter level of glory to another. And this glorious transfiguration comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit."
We can all draw close to Him with the veil removed from our faces. We can no longer afford to disregard the call to go d
John 11:43 - "...He cried out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth."
The things that you thought had died long ago; promises buried deep in you long ago -- some 5, even 10 years ago today -- He is calling life out. He is calling 'Lazarus' out of the tomb -- all the promises you thought had died. You thought it was past the time of resurrection possibility.
So say, 'Lazarus, come forth!' Jesus intentionally delayed His appearing past the fourth day to shatter their belief and
Now is the time to dig deeper depths!
A country may possess a plethora of natural resources, but if they are not INTENTIONAL about tapping in and developing those resources they will remain in poverty.
The same is true in the Kingdom of God:
We have been given an abundance of grace for every good work (2 Corinthians 9:8).
We have been blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3).
All things pertaining to life and godliness are ours (2 Peter 1:
Philippians 3:7-9 - "But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him."
Observation:
AT SOME POINT I HAVE TO CEASE BEING A SPIRITUAL ENCYCLOPEDIA (THAT IS, COLLECTING MORE FACTS, OPINIONS, ILLUSTRATIONS, AND INTERPRETATIONS, AND THEN PRESENTING
Ecclesiastes 3:11 - "He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart..."
Literally everything we are walking through and have walked through is for a purpose that is forthcoming. God doesn't waste a thing. Each one of us is carrying a message and God has full intention to have it shared and heard at exactly the right moment. There is always a time for everything and a season for everything (Ecclesiastes 3:1).
