Scriptures to read:  Revelation 22:1  John 7:38-39;  Psalm46, Acts 2:1-4

There is a fountain of life that flows like a river in and through you and me,
It heals the sick, opens the eyes of the blind, makes the lame to walk, and all the oppressed to go FREE!

There is a river that flows from the throne of God, the streams thereof will make us glad, so why do you think the phonies get so mad?
They argue, fuss and fume, vex the Holy Spirit and the move of God they do fight!
Phonies are shriveled up on the inside, run from, and cannot stand the LIGHT!

Death is swallowed up in victory, oh death where  is your sting?
Enter the King of Glory, and what the devil says does NOT mean a thing!
The rivers of Living Water bring abundant LIFE,
It removes the stain of sin and delivers us from all strife!

AMAZING GRACE, HOW SWEET THE SOUND that saved a wretch like me:           

For a man called JESUS died upon a tree!
When He rose up from the dead on the third day;
Sin and death were defeated, for Jesus is the WAY!

Now He has poured out His Spirit and the river is flowing strong;
Out of your inner most being flows the rivers of living water, for to Jesus you belong!

The Holy Spirit is now moving deep within your heart;
The fire of revival He did start!
So lift your hands and praise Him who sits upon the throne;
The river of LIFE is flowing, in and through His own!

The temptation is to only look at what is right in front of you!  Many times right in front of you is all the problems, obstacles, and things gone wrong and bad!  Then as you look at all that including what you don’t have that you need, depression and gloom descend like a dark cloud, and you find yourself saying what you HAVE thereby establishing the present evil circumstance!

We really need to see that there is power in our words either for good or bad!  God said in Mark 11 that when we believe God in our heart and speak words of faith then we will have whatever we say if we believe we will have what we say!  So faith reaches out beyond the natural, beyond the present evil circumstance,  beyond the lack and SPEAKS the blessing, speaks the power and promises of God, SPEAKS THE ANSWER as we LOOK BEYOND what is going on and to the power of the Spirit of God and the revelation of the Holy Spirit showing us what God is doing, and will do!  This is the key to victorious living over the world, the flesh, and the devil!

So STOP saying “what you have,” since that is the negative over and over again, and start HAVING WHAT YOU SAY IN FAITH BELIEVING!  You are looking beyond all the problems of life into the realm of the Spirit where the answers are and calling it into being what you say in faith believing!  “The faith of God calls those things that be not as though they were!”  Romans 4:17.  Speaking of Abraham, God says in Romans 4:17-22 “As it is written, I HAVE made you a father of many nations, before him whom he believed, even God, who quickens (makes alive) the dead, and CALLS THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE. Who against hope BELIEVED IN HOPE, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall your seed be.  And being not weak in faith, he CONSIDERED NOT his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah’s womb:  He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was STRONG IN FAITH, GIVING GLORY TO GOD; And being FULLY PERSUADED that, what He had promised, He was able also to perform.  And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.”

Abraham would not consider his own inability to reproduce at 100 years old, or the deadness of Sarah’s womb!  He DID NOT LOOK AT THE IMPOSSIBLE CIRCUMSTANCE, but only at the promise of God!  He looked beyond the symptoms, beyond the natural and looked in the Spirit of faith into the realm of the miracle working power of the Holy Spirit, and there received the miracle needed as the faith of God called those things which be not as though they were, and the righteous seed continued and they had a son! 

God is calling us to live far above it all as we are seated with Christ in heavenly places FAR ABOVE IT ALL!  ABOVE IT… ALL!  Ephesians 2 says that “God has QUICKENED (MADE ALIVE) you who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of “the power of the air”, the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience:  Among whom we also all had our lives in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.  But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, has He QUICKENED (MADE ALIVE) us together with Christ, and has raised us UP TOGETHER, AND MADE US SIT TOGETHER IN HEAVENLY PLACES IN CHRIST JESUS!”

We are made alive and when Jesus rose from the dead so did we, and as He is seated in heavenly places FAR ABOVE IT ALL, so are we IN HIM!  He says this so that in ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Jesus Christ!  Now we are to rule and reign in life by Christ Jesus, and NOT give into the beggarly elements of this world!  We have authority, and  power in the name of Jesus to turn the tide; to call those things that be not as though they were by FAITH… and it shall be so!

Now to Ephesians One.  God is talking to believers, saved and sealed with the Spirit.  There is a prayer that we should all pray in the first person starting with verse 17:  “That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you (me) the SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND REVELATION in the knowledge of Him:  The EYES  of MY understanding being ENLIGHTENED; that I may KNOW the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the GLORY of HIS INHERITANCE in the saints, and what is the EXCEEDING GREATNESS OF HIS POWER TO US-WARD WHO BELIEVE, according to the working of His MIGHTY POWER, which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, FAR ABOVE all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and EVERY name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: and has put ALL THINGS UNDER HIS FEET, and gave Him to be the head over ALL things to the church, Which is His body, the FULNESS of Him that fills all in all!  As I wrote this I prayed this prayer over all who would read this!

The key in this is to pray that the eyes of your understanding would be enlightened…!  Praise God we need to see with eyes of faith in the power of God as we look BEYOND the mess, beyond the pain and sickness, beyond the natural, beyond the virus, beyond the circumstance and see the promise and glory of God who has prepared blessing after blessing after blessing for us who believe!  You will be very glad you did! 

Elisha by revelation knowledge warned the King of Israel where and when the enemy King of Syria was planning to attack him and the army of Israel, and so they were delivered and protected by avoiding that area!  The king of Syria got red hot mad and inquired who is tipping off the King of Israel, and they told him it was Elisha!  So, the King of Syria brought his army to get “one” person who had the power of God!  The devil cannot stand it when believers tap into the power and wisdom of God for it defeats him and his evil plans, and sets people free! 

Elisha’s servant looks out and is struck by fear as he sees the Syrian army come to get them!  He ran to Elisha in alarm and fear telling him of the army that is there to kill him!  Elisha had LOOKED BEYOND the army, beyond the danger, beyond the fear, and saw in the realm of the Spirit!  He says:  “Fear not, for they that are with us are MORE than they that are against us!”  Then Elisha prays: “Lord open his eyes!”  God opened his eyes and suddenly the servant could look beyond the circumstance as he saw the hills full of horses and chariots of FIRE all around Elisha!  Praise God, if only all God’s people would learn to LOOK BEYOND the evil circumstance and assault of the devil then they would see the glory of God for the angel of the Lord camps round about us and will deliver us!

Elisha walked out and asked God to blind the whole army and they went blind and he led them into captivity!  They fed them and sent them on their way, and in those days Syria never invaded Israel again!  One man who looked beyond took on a whole army and WON!

What are you facing? What are you dealing with?  What has been standing in your way?  Your enemies are bread for you!  Their defense is departed from them, and you have the victory in Jesus name!  Call those things which be not as though they were by faith!  Take up and put the whole armor of God that having done all to stand you will stand and slice the enemies works to ribbons by the “sword of the Spirit, even the Word of God!”  You will stomp all over the devil’s head having your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace! 

Take your position in Jesus in the heavenly places FAR ABOVE every principality, power, wicked spirits in high places, and OVER all evil!  Bind evil spirits by saying so and they will be bound and unable to hinder, vex, or oppress!  Possess the land as you drive out the spirits that have hindered!  Take hold of your inheritance in Jesus and don’t let go until you see the glory of God!

I pray over each person here that the power of the  Holy Spirit comes on you now in Jesus name and reveals the “look beyond” that you need to do right now!  I loose you from all oppression and vexation in Jesus name!  Be made whole from every sickness, and all pain!  All demons of depression, giving up, darkness, and fear are bound and leave you right now in Jesus name!  The heartbreak is healed and spirits behind it leave now in Jesus name!

NEVER EVER GIVE UP, for as you LOOK BEYOND God will cause you to triumph in Jesus Christ!

What you see right now in front of you is not the “end all!”  Many times what you see there is nothing more than the devil’s bluff telling you that failure is your lot in life and nothing you do will work out!  God says the devil is “the father of lies!”  So why would you listen to the father of lies?  The devil lies about you and your future to you!  He says that it is all a hopeless mess and no way out!  LIES… LIES… LIES!!! TELL THE DEVIL TO SHUT UP AND LEAVE!

All God’s true people have faced many obstacles and challenges to their faith!  How they came out of it depended on whether they decided to “LOOK BEYOND” or not!
God has a lot to say about where we look!  He said to ponder the path of your feet and let your eyes look right on!  In other words do NOT look to the right or the left, but LOOK RIGHT ON STRAIGHT AHEAD!  “THE PATH OF THE JUST IS AS THE SHINING LIGHT THAT SHINES MORE AND MORE TO THE PERFECT DAY!”  Note that as you look right on and travel the path of faith (the just shall live by faith) that your life will be brighter and brighter every step of the way!  

So what do we do when everything was going fine and then all of a sudden there is a Goliath in our way and it would seem he is so big that he is all we can see!  Everyone was in fear of Goliath except one shepherd boy who says: ” Who is this uncircumcised philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God!” David had learned to look beyond the circumstance, beyond the lies, beyond the obstacle and look to the promises of God that says that one will chase a thousand and 2 ten thousand!  They will come against you one way and flee from you seven ways!  “There are MORE WITH US than against us!”  Oh, praise God I have to just shout.. HALLELUJAH, GLORY TO JESUS!  OUR GOD REIGNS!  HAHAHAHAHAHA THE devil IS DEFEATED BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS!  WE ARE MORE THAN MORE THAN CONQUERORS FOR OUR GOD IS THE GOD WHO IS MORE THAN ENOUGH!

So David went out against a giant, who had armor on, with faith in God and a sling and five stones!  As he stood there and Goliath mocked him.. David looked beyond and saw the power of the name of the Lord, and said:  “You come against me with a sword and spear, but I come against you in THE NAME OF THE LORD, and today He will deliver you to me!”  Praise God!  He took the position of authority in the name of the Lord!  “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are SAFE!”  DAVID RAN AGAINST THE GIANT AND BROUGHT HIM DOWN WITH ONE STONE IN THE ONLY VULNERABLE PART OF HIS ARMOUR AND HELMET, AND TOOK HIS HEAD OFF!  The philistines (symbolic of demons) ran off as the armies of God were emboldened and pursued them driving them out!  David looked beyond… to the promises and power of Almighty God and could not be depressed or stopped for:  “GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN US THAN he THAT IS IN THE WORLD!”  PRAISE YOU JESUS FOR WHAT YOU ARE DOING RIGHT NOW IN THE HEARTS OF OF YOUR PEOPLE!  FAITH IS COMING ALIVE IN YOU AND THAT SPARK OF FAITH WILL BECOME A FIRE BURNING INSIDE THAT WILL CONSUME THE WORKS OF THE devil, AND PUT HIM TO FLIGHT, AND BRING YOU TO “THE OTHER SIDE”  VICTORIOUS, BLESSED, FULL OF JOY, AND ALL THE ANSWERS AND WISDOM YOU NEED, EVEN MORE THAN ENOUGH!

NEW POST COMING SOON. ASSIGNMENT IN PREPARATION:  read the book of Ephesians at least one time!

Recently I was talking with a woman who had a lot of troubles going on from every direction including a slump in work where she was not making anywhere close to what she needed.  She had two children when she was younger, and adopted two more and now has the total responsibility for their well being and welfare.  She was in a depression and felt hopeless and was giving up to the point where she was not even trying at her work, which is mainly a commission based job!  A couple years ago she was with the wrong crowd and someone slipped something in her drink and when she tried to drive home it hit full force and she ended up flipping her car upside down spinning on the top!  She had a severe confusion that affected memory!

At a certain point I looked at her and found these words coming out:  “I’m going to pray for you that you will be able to stop smoking and that God deliver you from ALL evil!  She had not asked for prayer, but when I said that she said O.K., but not here and now because I will get all emotional!  I said: “Okay”  and I prayed for her later.

Three days later I saw her again, and she said: “Thank you so much for the prayers for in these few days my whole LIFE has turned around for the good!”  She said the depression and hopelessness completely left, and she had total renewed vitality, and the smoking was leaving, and had gone down to next to nothing!  EVERYTHING that was going against her CHANGED FOR THE GOOD including a complete turn around on the job!  I shared how Jesus had done this as we prayed for God to deliver her from ALL evil, and that Jesus loved her so much that He laid down His life for her and all of us, and He wanted her to know just how much He loved her!  I had a bit of a praise party then!  Praise God! 

DELIVER US FROM EVIL!  That is the prayer Jesus said to pray so it is VERY important to pray this prayer!  Some ministers and Christians evidently misread this prayer Jesus told us to pray!  They pray:  “Deliver us from evil unless for some unknown reason you want to permit us to be sick and suffer from the devil’s hand and misery upon misery to teach us precious lessons!”  WHAT A BUNCH OF MUCK AND PIG SLOP!  They have ADDED TO AND TAKEN AWAY from the Word of God and get Christians to ACCEPT awful things as from God as normal when God’s Word very clearly says to pray for Him to DELIVER US FROM EVIL! 

Don’t get the Kingdom of Light mixed up with the kingdom of darkness!  There are NO gray areas!  God wants us blessed, and what He promises is a long, healthy, delivered, peace filled, joy filled life!  Jesus redeemed us from the curse when He died on the cross in our place taking our sin and sickness so we could be cleansed, forgiven, justified, righteous, healed and delivered from ALL evil!  Now, ALL things are possible to them that believe!

“There is a way that “seems” right to a man, but the end thereof is death!”  Proverbs14:12  The path that produces death SEEMS to be right, but there is sin in there somewhere for God says in Romans 6:23: “The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal LIFE!”  The devil sugar coats his lies and deception and tries to deceive us by saying how “wonderful” it will be if you just choose the easy broad path he is showing you!  What he does not tell you that the broad path that seems so easy is filled with death, for to go down that path is disobedience to God, and the devil works in the children of disobedience!  What the devil’s crowd calls a “good time”  is nothing more than sin, death, and demons taking control of your life!  CHOOSE LIFE, CHOOSE JESUS, CHOOSE THE GOOD WAY OF GOD OUTLINED IN HIS WORD, AND YOU WILL  LIVE A GOOD LIFE, BLESSED OF GOD, AND FULL OF JOY!  If you never asked Jesus to save you, call on His name right now and He will come into your heart, forgive and cleanse you from all sin, and you will be born again of the Spirit!  “Jesus, I believe you died for me and raised up from the dead and I SAY JESUS CHRIST IS LORD!  Since you said if we believe in our hearts and confess with our mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord, then I am saved by your grace right now!  Thank you Jesus for making me whole!”

There is a scripture that says NOT to LIMIT the Holy One of Israel…ALMIGHTY GOD!
TAKE OFF THE LIMITS you have put on God saying this far and no further Lord!  Take off the limits of unbelief that look at the problem and says it is impossible and will never happen for you because of your past sins or failures, etc.!  Also, involved with unbelief is a spirit of FATE!  That is the one that tells you everything has happened for a reason and it is all your sealed destiny and nothing can be done about it!  What a pack of LIES that is!  God says that the devil is the one who comes only to rob, kill, and destroy!  Jesus has come that you might have life and have it MORE ABUNDANTLY!  ABUNDANCE OF GOOD, ABUNDANCE OF BLESSINGS, ABUNDANT LIFE….NOT death!  God says there is evil and good and to CHOOSE the GOOD, THE ABUNDANT LIFE!  God never violates your will, and it is up to YOU to CHOOSE LIFE instead of death!  Decide right NOW for ABUNDANT LIFE!  Decide NOW for THE GOODNESS OF GOD, AND THE GOOD THINGS, AND THE GOOD WORD OF GOD!

The year 2021 Is to be THE YEAR OF THE POWER OF PRAYER, so do not limit Jesus, or underestimate the power of prayer, for as we pray for Him to deliver us from evil HE WILL DO IT…. OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN!  God will be glorified, and praised as we receive answers to prayer that will completely change our’s and other’s lives for the good!! PRAISE JESUS!!!!! 

Now I pray over all who read this that in the name of Jesus the power of Satan is destroyed, and you are released by the anointing of the Holy Spirit to be what God says you can be, have what God says you can have, and do what God says you are to do! The spirits of lack, sickness and pain must leave you now!  Arthritis, and spirits of cancer and the fear of cancer are leaving completely in the name of Jesus!  Job stress is conquered, and I pray the way for the jobs needed will be opened up to you as the Red Sea opened by the power of God, and the blessings needed will come from all directions!  The spirits of fear of the future are bound and must go out in Jesus name!  I loose the power of the Holy Spirit over 2021 in the name of Jesus to lead you, revive you, deliver you from all evil, and deliver our nation from all evil, including the covid which we crush under our feet in Jesus name, and speak death to it, and bind and cast out all demons involved!

Now, begin the New Year 2021 with unceasing prayer, prevailing prayer and NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF PRAYER IN THE NAME OF JESUS FOR OUR GOD IS A PRAYER ANSWERING GOD, and delights when we come to the throne of God with boldness by the blood of Jesus and fellowship with Him!

HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY NEW YEAR IN JESUS!

NOW THAT YOU KNOW HOW TO STAND, YOU ALSO NEED TO KNOW WHERE YOU ARE SEATED!  SOME “sit”  IN THE REGION OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH, AND THINK THEY ARE LIVING A “NORMAL” LIFE!  SICKNESS AND DISEASE, OPPRESSION ARE NOT NORMAL FOR A BELIEVER IN JESUS!  LIVING IN DARKNESS IS NOT NORMAL FOR A BELIEVER! 

TOO MUCH OF THE TIME BELIEVERS LIVE FAR BELOW THEIR PRIVILEGES IN JESUS BECAUSE OF A LACK OF KNOWLEDGE!  GOD SAYS:  “MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR  LACK OF KNOWLEDGE!”  (Hosea 4:6)  DO NOT LET THE DEVIL ROB, KILL, OR DESTROY YOU JUST BECAUSE HE CAUGHT YOU NOT KNOWING WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!  THE WORD OF GOD IS THERE FOR YOU TO GAIN THE KNOWLEDGE YOU NEED FOR EVERYTHING YOU FACE IN LIFE!  “YOU WILL KNOW THE TRUTH, AND THE TRUTH WILL MAKE YOU FREE!”  KNOW!!!  NOTICE IT DOES NOT SAY “KNOW ABOUT!”  IT SAYS KNOW!  IT DOES NOT SAY: “MAYBE, PERHAPS, OR THINK,”  BUT IT SAYS THAT YOU MIGHT “KNOW!”

REMEMBER THE SEVEN SONS OF SCEVA THAT TRIED TO CAST OUT DEMONS IN THE NAME OF JESUS PAUL PREACHES ABOUT?!  HAHAHA,  HOW DID THAT TURN OUT?  THE DEMONS CAUSED THE MAN TO TEAR UP SEVEN MEN, AND THEY WENT RUNNING AWAY TORE UP BECAUSE THEY DID NOT “KNOW” JESUS OR THE POWER OF HIS NAME!  YOU CANNOT RIDE THE COAT TAILS OF SOMEONE ELSE WHO KNOWS JESUS AND KNOWS THE POWER OF GOD, BUT YOU MUST KNOW FOR YOURSELF!  GOD SAYS FOR ALL OF US TO SEEK, AND WE WILL FIND, ASK AND WE WILL RECEIVE, AND KNOCK AND THE DOOR WILL BE OPENED TO US!  SEEK JESUS AND YOU WILL FIND HIM BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD, AND JESUS WILL REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU FOR HE IS THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF OUR FAITH! 

THEN SOME HAVE NOT AND SO HAVE NOT!  DON’T BLAME GOD FOR THE LACK FOR HE SAID IF YOU ASK IN FAITH YOU WILL RECEIVE!  OTHERS ASK AND RECEIVE NOT FOR THEY ASK TO CONSUME IT ON THEIR OWN LUSTS!  THEY REFUSE TO LIVE FOR JESUS, BUT LIVE FOR THE DEVIL!  THE LIFE LIVED FOR JESUS IS A BLESSED LIFE AND ABUNDANT LIFE!  PRAISE GOD, HE GIVES DIVINE HEALING AND DIVINE HEALTH!  JESUS CLEANSES AND FORGIVES US AS WE COME TO HIM FROM ALL SIN!  HE WILL DELIVER YOU RIGHT NOW FROM ALL THOSE DEMONS OF GUILT YOU HAVE BEEN CARRYING AROUND FOR YEARS NEEDLESSLY!  GUILT IS NOT FROM GOD FOR JESUS BORE ALLOUR SINS, NOT JUST SOME OF THEM WITH EXCEPTIONS!  RECEIVE HIS FORGIVENESS AND DELIVERANCE NOW! 

THERE IS A HUGE WEIGHT LIFTING OFF YOU RIGHT NOW!  THE SPIRIT OF GOD SETS YOU FREE!  THERE ARE SPIRITS OF GUILT AND FALSE CONDEMNATION GOING OUT IN JESUS NAME!  SPIRITS OF UNWORTHINESS ARE GOING TO!  ACTUALLY YOU ARE MADE WORTHY BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS, AND GOD SAYS TO COME BOLDLY TO THE THRONE BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS!  SO WHEN WE SIT AROUND MOPING AND FEELING UNWORTHY, AND SORRY FOR OUR SAD SELVES, GOD IS WAITING FOR US TO REPENT OF THAT MESS, BE CLEANSED BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS, DELIVERED FROM THE DEMONS OF GUILT, BE EMPOWERED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT AND BE ABOUT OUR FATHERS BUSINESS AS WE ARE SEATED IN HEAVENLY PLACES IN JESUS TAKING OUR PLACE OF AUTHORITY IN JESUS OVER ALL THE MESS IN THIS WORLD!

GOD SAYS WHERE HE HAS SEATED YOU IN EPHESIANS 2:1-6:  “AND YOU HAS HE QUICKENED (MADE ALIVE), WHO WERE DEAD IN TRESPASSES AND SINS;  WHEREIN IN TIME PAST YOU WALKED ACCORDING TO THE COURSE OF THIS WORLD, ACCORDING TO THE PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR, THE SPIRIT THAT NOW WORKS IN THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE:  AMONG WHOM ALSO WE ALL HAD OUR CONVERSATION IN TIMES PAST IN THE LUSTS OF OUR FLESH, FULFILLING THE DESIRES OF THE FLESH AND OF THE MIND;  AND WERE BY NATURE THE CHILDREN OF WRATH, EVEN AS OTHERS.  BUT GOD, WHO IS RICH IN MERCY, FOR HIS GREAT LOVE WHEREWITH HE LOVED US,  EVEN WHEN WE WERE DEAD IN SINS, HAS QUICKENED US TOGETHER WITH CHRIST, (BY GRACE ARE YOU SAVED;) AND RAISED US UP TOGETHER, AND MADE US “SIT” TOGETHER IN HEAVENLY PLACES IN CHRIST JESUS.”  PRAISE GOD WE ARE SEATED FAR ABOVE IT ALL IN JESUS! 

IN EPHESIANS 1 THERE IS A PRAYER WE SHOULD PRAY OUT LOUD AND PUT OUR NAMES IN IT AND MAKE IT PERSONAL TO YOU!  “THAT THE GOD OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE FATHER OF GLORY, MAY GIVE TOYOU THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND REVELATION IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM;  THE EYES OF YOUR UNDERSTANDING BEING ENLIGHTENED;  THAT YOU MAY KNOW WHAT IS THE HOPE OF HIS CALLING, AND WHAT THE RICHES OF THE GLORY OF HIS INHERITANCE IN THE SAINTS, AND WHAT IS THE EXCEEDING GREATNESS OF HIS POWER TO US-WARD WHO BELIEVE, ACCORDING TO THE WORKING OF HIS MIGHTY POWER, WHICH HE WROUGHT IN CHRIST, WHEN HE RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD, AND SET HIM AT HIS OWN RIGHT HAND IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES, FAR ABOVE ALL  PRINCIPALITY, AND POWER, AND MIGHT, AND DOMINION, AND EVERY NAME THAT IS NAMED, NOT ONLY IN THIS WORLD, BUT ALSO IN THAT WHICH IS TO COME!”  THAT YOU MAY KNOW WHAT IS THE EXCEEDING GREATNESS OF HI POWER TOWARD US WHO BELIEVE!  IT COMES BY THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO IS THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND  REVELATION! 

WHEN WE KNOW THE EXCEEDING RESURRECTION POWER OF GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WHEN WE BELIEVE!  NOTHING CAN HOLD US DOWN FOR JESUS CONQUERED IT ALL FOR US AND RAISED FROM THE DEEAD AND IS NOT SEATED IN HEAVENLY PLACES FAR ABOVE IT ALL, AND NOW YOU ARE SEATED THERE IN HIM BY FAITH IN HIM!   PRAISE YOU JESUS FOR THE EXCEEDING GREATNESS OF YOUR POWER;  REVEAL IT TO YOUR PEOPLE NOW IN JESUS NAME! 

THERE IS NOTHING TOO HARD FOR THE LORD!!!  SEE HIM ABOVE IT ALL, FAR ABOVE IT ALL AS HE CONQUERED ALL THE PRINCIPALITIES, POWERS, AND RULERS OF DARKNESS!  NOW THE LIGHT HAS COME, AND SHOWN IN OUR HEARTS!  THE PESTILENCE THAT WALKS IN DARKNESS IS UNDER OUR FEET AND WE CRUSH IT IN JESUS NAME!  FEAR NOT, IT IS YOUR FATHER’S GOOD PLEASURE TO GIVE YOU THE KINGDOM!

2Corinthians 4:4-6 “…the god OF THIS WORLD (the devil) HAS BLINDED THE MINDS OF THE UNBELIEVERS, TO KEEP THEM FROM SEEING THE LIGHT  OF THE GOSPEL  OF THE GLORY OF CHRIST, WHO IS THE IMAGE OF GOD.  ….FOR GOD, WHO SAID, “LET LIGHT SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS,”  HAS SHONE IN OUR HEARTS TO GIVE THE LIGHT OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE GLORY OF GOD IN THE FACE OF JESUS CHRIST.

KNOW WHO YOU ARE IN JESUS!  KNOW HIS RESURRECTION POWER!  KNOW YOU ARE FORGIVEN!  KNOW THAT YOU ARE SEATED IN POSITION OF AUTHORITY OVER IT ALL IN HEAVENLY PLACES IN JESUS!

To all my blog friends, I thought you would get a “kick” out of this!

P.S. I did this cartoon before the “last election” 2016.

Some strain, and strain over things and never get the answer they need!  All the while Jesus has arms outstretched willing to give all they need and more!  There are keys to the kingdom of God and those keys open doors of blessing to take care of all our need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus!  Never ever blame God for your lack for He has nothing to do with that lack!  God did say if you “lack” wisdom to ask and He will give it liberally and upbraid not!  James 1:5  Sounds good, right?!  It is good for wisdom has riches in the right hand, and riches and honor in the left!  Proverbs3:16.  Now some stop reading right there in James 1:5  but there are guards around all the promises of God, and the guard around this one is to let patience have it’s perfect work that you may be perfect, and complete, LACKING NOTHING!  Also, it goes on to say in verse 6 that when you ask for wisdom to ask in faith NOTHING WAVERING, BELIEVING AND WITH NO DOUBT, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.  That person should not expect to receive ANYTHING from the Lord.  Such a person is double-minded and unstable in ALL they do.

Using faith is NOT a feeling!  “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God!”  You have faith, but need to DECIDE not to be lazy and laying down on the job, but to STAND AND USE IT!  One thing to remember that faith speaks and that’s when the mountains get REMOVED!  What if you lay there under the burdens of life, talking the problems, complaining how bad you have it?  You will have what YOU say when you believe it!  So then you have more misery and heartache, and oppression, and wonder why,  oh why does all this garbage have to be your lot in life!  All the while the truth is that it does NOT have to be your lot in life, but if you would just STAND things would change and God could work in your life!

Standing is a position of authority and victory!  You are not knocked down, but are standing by FAITH!  Romans11 says we stand by faith!  The devil is a liar, and will tell you that you cannot stand, but have to fall and fail!  Do NOT accept those lies, but STAND against them and rebuke them!

The devil and his followers and demons cannot stand it when having done all to stand you STAND!  That means you overcome them all and all their tricks and have stood by faith, and they know God will honor your faith and they will be delivered, healed, and blessed of God and they cannot do a thing about it! 

Some Christians are “night crawlers for God” for they believe and act so!  Crawling,crawling, crawling in the dirt and muck and mire of life!  Bound up with depression spirits, spirits of anxiety, loneliness, grief, and pain;  misery is their middle name!  They expect no more than awfulness and problems!  They rehearse their problems every day and establish the present evil circumstance by what they say!  It is perpetual oppression for the night crawlers!

God has no night crawlers in His Holy Spirit army of believers, but only those who having done all to stand, STAND with the full armor of God on stepping all over the devil’s head!  Overcoming is their middle name and lifestyle!  They speak faith, victory, the abundant life, and are possessing the land!  Those who stand fear NOTHING  for: ” IF GOD BE FOR US, WHO THEN CAN BE AGAINST US?!” 

Then we hear about the Christians that want to be carried everywhere with no effort on their part, no standing, no walking by faith, just expecting others to carry them and their burdens!  They develop no prayer life of their own, but want everybody else to do all the praying and praising the Lord!  To stand you must develop a regular prayer life, praying in the Spirit, praising the Lord, and interceding for others!  These are the “free loaderChristians!”  they want a free ride with no responsibility! 

Ephesians 6: 10-18 is a definite must read and powerful to give you  the power to stand against it all!  “Finally my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the POWER OF HIS MIGHT!  Notice here in verse 10 that your strength is in the Lord, and in the power of HIS MIGHT!  God never, ever loses, and you will not lose as you abide and walk in the POWER OF HIS MIGHT!  God is stronger than all we face!  His power is totally greater than all disease and sickness, and demon oppression!  When the devil was in heaven as Lucifer and tried to go above God, he FELL LIKE LIGHTENING DOWN OUT OF HEAVEN, and is now doomed in judgement to he’ll and the lake of fire at the appointed time! 

Now verse 11 starts the instruction on what to do in order to stand!  “Put on the WHOLE armor of God, that you may be able (have the ability) to stand against the wiles (crafty ways of the accuser)  of the devil!  You cannot afford to let even one piece of the armor of God off for that will make you vulnerable to the devil and his crafty ways he tries to trick, deceive, lie and cheat us out of what God has for us!  Always go to the promises of God, and believe them, say them with your name in it, and pray them into performances! 

Verse 12 says For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness  (wicked spirits) in high places.  So when we fight people it is not where the real battle is, or how to stand, and overcome!  We win as we go in spiritual warfare over all wicked spirits in every realm, in the heavenly places, in this earth, and under the earth, and bind them!  Bring DOWN the strongholds, bring THEM into captivity! 

To stand you MUST put on the helmet of salvation, the helmet of hope!  God is the God of ALL hope by the power of the Holy Spirit!  The promises of God cover the present and the future!  Don’t be disquieted within me, oh my soul, but HOPE in God!  God promises future good!  Our hope is in Jesus!  Then faith is the substance of things hoped for!  Hopelessness causes many to fall and not stand for they give up when they could have had the blessing of God had they STOOD by faith! 

Your feet are to be shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace!  When you live and move and are led by the peace of God, you are able to stand against all the wiles of the devil, and nothing rattles you, NOTHING!  Your waist is girded with truth, and you have on  the breastplate of righteousness!  You are clothed with the robe of righteousness of Jesus, and the sword of the Spirit that is the Word of God!  So now there is NO condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus so believe it because of what the blood of Jesus does for you in cleansing you from ALL unrighteousness!  Put the sword of the Spirit in your mouth, even the WORD OF GOD, SHARPER THAN ANY TWO EDGED SWORD!  It will cut all the devices of the devil to pieces and make you strong as you believe it, meditate on it, and speak it in faith! 

Now we come to the most important piece of armor there is!  ABOVE ALL…. ABOVE ALL…. ABOVE ALL, taking the SHIELD OF FAITH with which YOU SHALL BE ABLE TO QUENCH ALL THE FIERY DARTS OF THE WICKED ONE!   Oh, praise Jesus my dear friends take hold of faith that came by hearing and hearing by the Word of God!  I said this before, but it is good to say it again:  Back some years I worked in a machine and tool shop, and a man worked with us that had backslid and had many, many demons controlling his mind!  I was working at a grinding machine and the Holy Spirit had me look up to see him coming at me gripping a two by four piece of wood about four feet long, and he brought it back in a full swing to knock my brains out!!! I just STOOD there in faith and peace and SAID:  “THE SHIELD OF FAITH QUENCHES ALL THE FIERY DARTS OF SATAN!”  Over and over he swung that board at me and every time it bounced off something invisible about a foot out from me… THE SHIELD OF FAITH!  Praise God, this gospel of Jesus Christ is powerful and works every time!  I had to stand in faith, and I won! 

Boxers cannot win laying down, but they MUST STAND and FIGHT!  God says to fight the GOOD fight of FAITH!  1 Timothy 6:12.. Laying hold of eternal life!  STOP laying  down and fainting!  That’s when we say we “cannot take it any more!”  when we say “we are just a failure and should just eat worms and die”  then we are playing right into the devil’s hands for he is the one behind everything that is going against us and is trying to get us to give up!  I have cast demons of giving up out of the flesh of Christians!  Galatians 6:9:  “And let us NOT be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not!”  Worn out shoes are not good for anything, but to be thrown out, and God says if salt loses it’s savor it is good for nothing except to be cast out, and we who believe are called the salt of the earth! 

We have all dealt with a lot this year, and it would be easy to to give up and throw in the towel, lay down and die, or wish to die (demons of death wish)!  In due season you WILL REAP IF YOU FAINT NOT!  It takes a special breed to RISE ABOVE IT ALL IN JESUS, and refuse to give up; REFUSE to be weary in well doing!  Right now demons of wariness of the flesh and spirit are bound and going out in Jesus name!!! 

Refuse all the lies of people, presidents, naysayers, and demons, and DO ALL TO STAND, AND STAND VICTORIOUS OVER THE WORLD, THE FLESH, AND THE DEVIL!!!

2Corinthians 10:4:  “The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but MIGHTY through God to the pulling down of strongholds;  Casting DOWN imaginations, and EVERY high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity EVERY thought to the obedience of Christ! 

Some of you have been seriously wrestling with spirits of defeat and defeatism!  You wake up feeling defeated, and go to sleep feeling defeated like it is your lot in life!  STOP IT NOW IN JESUS NAME AND BE LOOSED!  Demons of defeat and defeatism are leaving very quickly and you will know Holy Spirit renewal in your spirit, soul, and body in Jesus name! 

Let’s start PRAISING GOD daily more than ever for His great goodness and mercy!, Rejoice in Jesus Christ and have no confidence in the flesh!  As you praise the Lord, He will inhabit and live in that praise and the presence of God will be all over you, and in HIS PRESENCE IS FULNESS OF JOY!!  Praise God forever and ever!  He is worthy to be praised!  His goodness forevermore endures! 

Take the attitude of a WINNER, and OVERCOMER,  for Jesus CONQUERED IT ALL, and Handed you the keys of the kingdom that unlock all the blessing there are!  I AM what God SAYS I AM, I HAVE WHAT GOD SAYS I HAVE, and I will overcome it all for I walk in the victory of Jesus!  I pray the promises of God into performances and have NO confidence in the energy of the flesh, and it is NOT BY MIGHT OR MY OWN POWER, BUT BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD that this mountain shall be REMOVED! 

Thank you Jesus for all you are doing for all my friends here on the blog church of believers!  Thank you Lord for our new president and all the turn around for good that you are doing now and next year restoring all that has been eaten away!,, I rebuke disease, virus, and death, poverty and lack!  Thank you Jesus for taking care of it all!  Bless your faithful people with the blessing of the Lord that makes rich, and adds NO sorrow with it!  AMEN!

WHEN THE NIGHT HAS BEEN TOO LONG, AND NO BLESSINGS IN SIGHT WITH ONLY EMPTY NETS TO SHOW FOR YOUR TOIL IT IS HIGH TIME TO CONSIDER CASTING YOUR NETS ON THE OTHER SIDE!  I CALL IT “EMPTY NET SYNDROME!”  THE PIG SLOP RELIGIOUS SPIRIT IS THE ONE THAT CAUSES EMPTY NETS!  THEY PREACH FALSE DOCTRINES THAT LIMIT GOD AND CANNOT PRODUCE ANY TRUE MIRACLES OF THE HOLY SPIRIT!  RITUALS AND FALSE REVELATIONS HAVE KEPT PEOPLE IN A CONSTANT STATE OF DEFEAT AND DEPRESSION!  JESUS CAME TO LIBERATE US FROM FALSE RELIGIONS AND FILL US WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND FILL OUR NETS TO OVERFLOWING!

JESUS CAME TO GIVE US LIFE AND GIVE IT MORE ABUNDANTLY!  GOD DOES NOT WANT YOU TO LACK ANY GOOD THING THAT YOU NEED!  GOD WANTS YOUR NETS TO BE FULL OF FISH!  PSALM 34:10 THE YOUNG LIONS DO LACK, AND SUFFER HUNGER:  BUT THEY THAT SEEK THE LORD SHALL NOT WANT ANY GOOD THING.  DO NOT ACCEPT FAILURE AS NORMAL FOR A BELIEVER IN JESUS FOR HE HAS PROMISED US GOOD SUCCESS AND PROSPERITY EVEN AS OUR SOUL PROSPERS!  THE DEVIL IS A LIAR AND THE FATHER OF LIES!  WE NEED TO STAND AGAINST ALL THE LIES THAT TOLD US WE COULDN’T RECEIVE FROM GOD BECAUSE OF THE PAST OR FAILURES, ETC.!  GOD’S LOVE IS UNCONDITIONAL SO HE HERE IN PSALM 34 HAS TOLD US THAT WHEN WE SEEK HIM WE WILL HAVE ALL THE GOOD THINGS WE NEED!  BELIEVE IT, SAY IT, RECEIVE IT!

WHEN CHRISTIANS GET IN A STRAIN IT IS NEVER GOD!  GOD DOES NOT HONOR STRAIN, OR WHAT WE WORK UP IN THE FLESH, BUT HE HONORS FAITH THAT ACTS ON THE WORD OF GOD, AND WHEN WE BELIEVE GOD WE DO ENTER INTO REST!  IN THAT REST IS ALL THE PROVISION OF GOD!  “THOSE THAT ENTER INTO GOD’S REST HAVE CEASED FROM THEIR “OWN” WORKS!  (HEBREWS)  WHEN THE DISCIPLES HAD TOILED ALL NIGHT IN THEIR OWN ENERGY THEY CAUGHT NOTHING, BUT WERE JUST WEARING THEMSELVES OUT WITH JUST EMPTY NETS TO SHOW FOR IT!  JESUS SAID FOR THEM TO CAST THEIR NETS ON THE “OTHER SIDE”, AND WHEN THEY ACTED IN SIMPLE FAITH ON HIS WORD SO MANY FISH CAME IN THE NET IT WAS FULL TO OVERFLOWING…ABUNDANCE OF FISH!

SO AS YOU STEP OUT ON GOD’S WORD THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL COME ON YOU AND DESTROY THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL AND MAKE A CLEAR PATH FOR YOU UNHINDERED, AND BLESSED!  CAST YOUR NETS ON THE OTHER SIDE…THE SIDE OF FAITH INSTEAD OF DOUBT, FEAR, AND UNBELIEF!  DO YOU NEED HEALING?  IT IS ALREADY YOURS FOR JESUS PAID THE PRICE SO IT IS NOT SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO STRAIN AT OR WORK UP IN THE ENERGY OF THE FLESH!  SIMPLY BELIEVE!  THANK JESUS FOR HEALING YOU, AND WATCH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT DRIVE THAT SICKNESS OUT OF YOU SO FAST IT WILL MAKE THE DEVIL’S HEAD SPIN!

2 CORINTHIANS 11 TALKS OF THE SIMPLICITY THAT IS IN CHRIST!  WHEN PIG SLOP RELIGIONS ADD TO OR TAKE AWAY FROM THE WORD OF GOD IT IS LEAVENED AND A LITTLE LEAVEN LEAVENS THE WHOLE LUMP AND THERE WILL BE NO MIRACLES, ONLY EMPTY NETS AND EMPTY WORDS OF UNBELIEF!  DON’T MAKE IT COMPLICATED FOR JESUS LOVES YOU AND WANTS TO BLESS YOU!  SIMPLY TAKE HIM AT HIS WORD, BELIEVE IT, SAY IT, LIVE IT AND ACT ON THE PROMISES OF GOD IN FAITH AND YOU WILL SEE THE GLORY OF GOD!  DO NOT BE FORGETFUL HEARERS OF THE WORD ONLY, BUT BE DOERS OF THE WORD!  DOERS OF THE WORD ARE BLESSED IN THEIR DOING!

RENOUNCE DOUBLE MINDED SPIRITS!  THIS IS WHEN ONE MOMENT YOU CONFESS FAITH, AND THEN THE NEXT MOMENT YOU CONFESS ALL THE PROBLEMS AND WOES YOU FACE!  BE SINGLE MINDED TOWARDS GOD IN FAITH AND YOU WILL SEE THE MOUNTAINS THAT HAVE STOOD AGAINST YOU BE REMOVED AND CARRIED INTO THE SEA!

I BIND AND DRIVE OUT EVERY DEMON OF DOUBT, UNBELIEF, SKEPTICISM, PESSIMISM, FEAR, DOUBLE MINDEDNESS, CONFUSION, COMPLICATION, WORRY, SICKNESS AND DISEASE, AND ALL OPPRESSION IN THE NAME OF JESUS!  BE LOOSED AND MADE WHOLE IN THE NAME OF JESUS RIGHT NOW!  DRUG ADDICTION OF ALL KINDS IS CRUSHED AS WELL AS EPILEPSY AND SEIZURES!  DO NOT ACCEPT ANY OF SATAN’S GARBAGE AS NORMAL BECAUSE IT IS NOT  NORMAL!  HEALED IS NORMAL!  BLESSED IS NORMAL!  DELIVERED IS NORMAL! 

BELIEVE GOD FOR THE ABUNDANT LIFE IN JESUS FOR HE IS MOVING TO GIVE IT TO YOU NOW!

God has so much for us the human mind does not comprehend it!  So many blessings are right there for us, but God said that when His people are destroyed it is because of a lack of knowledge!  What you don’t know can rob you of what God promises you in His Word!

Jesus tells us to ask, seek and knock!  Ask Him to reveal His Word to you by His Spirit and you will begin to come alive with revelation knowledge in your spirit from God!  Seek Him with your whole heart and you will find!  When you receive the revelation of Jesus Christ your life will be transformed!  He is the friend that sticks closer than a brother!  He is the bright and morning star!   He is the beginning and the end, Alpha and Omega!  Jesus is the prince of peace, wonderful, the healer and mighty deliverer who delivers us from all evil!  Jesus is the mediator between God and man!  He ever lives to make intercession for us!  He truly is the lover of our souls! 

Once revelation comes alive you have light turned on that scatters the darkness!  Some gave up before they got revelation and if they had persisted and persevered would have received what they needed!  Never, EVER give up!  Some right now are facing tremendous pressures that you don’t know what to do about!  There are a lot of questions over what is going to happen and what is not going to happen!  Some have laid awake at night worrying and stressed over it all!  I have good news for you and that is to those who sat in darkness and the shadow of death a GREAT LIGHT is risen and the darkness will be scattered as you believe God and stand strong in faith nothing wavering!  Praise Jesus!  Praise God!  JESUS IS THAT LIGHT!  Put your faith completely in Him and not the circumstance and He will deliver you from all evil!

The first thing you need to realize is that God has already given you the land!  It is YOURS because God says so!  To possess the land God gave His people had to go in and drive out the giants that were usurping authority and hindering them from what God had promised!  (Deuteronomy 1)  (Joshua 18).  We were made from the land and now God says possess, take control of the land!  The problem with a lot of pig slop religion is that they do not know how to cast out the demon trespassers in the land, the flesh!  Therefore constantly, over and over again Christians have the same oppression as they always have, and do not possess what God promises in His Word, ABUNDANT LIFE! 

God said to fight the GOOD fight of faith!  Faith without works is dead, being alone!  (1Timothy 1:12) (James 2).  There are things to fight!  God said to tear down the strongholds by the weapons of our warfare that are mighty through God!  Bind the ruler spirits of evil in the atmosphere and the demons here and in the flesh and loose yourself and others in the name of Jesus!  Exercise your authority in Jesus and possess the land!  Troubled by fear!  That is a trespassing spirit of the enemy so bind it, shut it down and command it to get out in the name of Jesus, and it will go, and you will continue to walk in love and peace!  Perfect love casts out fear!   Is there a problem with skeptical demons or spirits of doubt and unbelief?  BIND THEM AND CAST THEM OUT, and continue to possess the land in faith and watch the power of God work in and through you!  Praise God!  God has ALREADY given us the victory; now we need to lay hold of eternal life and fight for that victory to manifest as we believe God over everything!

Jesus said:  “Behold I give you power over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt you!  You will tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power and venomous spirits of the enemy as you believe in the authority and power Jesus gave you, and use it against the devil and all his cohorts! (Luke 10:19).  Jesus rose from the dead conquering death, he’ll, and grave, the devil and all his imps!  They are already defeated, and you have already been given the victory and the keys of the kingdom of God, son rise up you strong and possess the land! 

Don’t let the devil rob your peace not even for a minute for we cast all our cares on Jesus for He cares for us!  We are to LET the peace of God rule in our hearts!  Do not LET THE DEVIL ROB YOU ANY MORE OF ANYTHING!  HEALING IS YOURS!  DELIVERANCE IS YOURS!  LOVE,JOY,PEACE,PROVISION, AND ABUNDANCE ARE ALL YOURS IN JESUS!  Fight off all that is opposite to what God has given you!

Say what God says in faith nothing doubting and believe that you will have what you say and you will have it! (Mark 11:23)  what have you been saying? Have you said what the problem is over and over, or how bad it is?  The more you say negative is the more negative you will have because God gave you authority and there is power of life and death in the tongue!  (proverbs 18:21). 

You are seated in heavenly places in Jesus far above every principality, power, might and dominion!  Take your place in Jesus and don’t settle for less than God’s best He promised in His Word! 

The devil is the father of lies and tries to cheat you out of what is rightfully yours in Jesus!  Do not listen to the lies that tell you that you are not good enough to receive the blessings of God!  You are cleansed by the blood of Jesus and are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus!

I loose you from spirits of inferiority and false condemnation, and unbelief….go free in Jesus name!  I bind all the lying spirits and all their lies and they must leave you now in Jesus name!  I bind every spirit of pain and sickness and they are going out now in the name of Jesus!  Be made whole right now in Jesus name!  Be loosed in Jesus name!  Receive healing and deliverance from all oppression in Jesus name!

You are more than a conqueror in Jesus so march on child of God for we are well able to possess the land and enjoy the abundant life in Jesus!

THE DEVIL ALWAYS TRIES TO MAKE IT SEEM LIKE THERE IS JUST NO HOPE FOR YOU!  HE TRIES TO CONDEMN YOU OVER THE PAST, SIN, AND FAILURES!  HOPE IS NOT BASED ON THE PAST, BUT COMES FROM GOD RIGHT NOW NO MATTER THE PAST FAILURES FOR WHEN YOU COME TO JESUS HE WIPES THE SLATE CLEAN!  THROUGH HIS BLOOD SHED FOR YOU, AND FAITH IN THAT BLOOD YOU ARE CLEANSED AND FORGIVEN!  AS YOU WALK WITH JESUS KEEP IT ALL UNDER THE BLOOD OF JESUS, AND WALK IN FAITH IN HIM, AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS WILL CLOTHE YOU!

WHY DOES THE DEVIL FIGHT YOU SO HARD FROM WALKING IN HOPE?  COULD IT BE HE KNOWS THAT HOPE MUST BE IN PLAY FOR FAITH TO HAVE TO FEED ON FOR:  “FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS…. HOPED FOR!”  IF YOU DO NOT MOVE IN HOPE THEN FAITH HAS NOTHING TO MAKE INTO SUBSTANCE!  “WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD!  SO, FAITH PLEASES GOD, AND BRINGS THE POWER OF GOD INTO THE SITUATION!”

“NOW THE GOD OF HOPE FILL YOU WITH ALL JOY AND PEACE IN BELIEVING THAT YOU MIGHT ABOUND IN HOPE, THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST!  ROMANS 15.  NOTICE THAT GOD IS NOT A GOD OF HOPELESSNESS, BUT OF HOPE!  THEN, HE FILLS YOU WITH ALL JOY AND PEACE IN BELIEVING.  ALL JOY, AND ALL PEACE THAT YOU ARE FILLED WITH AS YOU BELIEVE GOD!  WHEN YOU ARE FILLED WITH ALL JOY AND PEACE IN BELIEVING, THEN YOU ARE ABLE TO ABOUND IN HOPE THROUGH  THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST!  ABUNDANCE OF HOPE–MORE THAN ENOUGH HOPE–COMES AS YOU ARE FILLED WITH ALL JOY AND PEACE IN BELIEVING!
GOD DOESN’T WANT YOU TO HAVE JUST ENOUGH HOPE TO GET BY ON, BUT AN ABUNDANCE OF HOPE THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST! 

DEFEAT IS A DEMON SPIRIT!  NEVER, EVER ACCEPT DEFEAT!  GOD SAID TO FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH!  HE NEVER SAID TO QUIT FIGHTING!  NEVER EVER GIVE UP FOR THE ANSWERS YOU DO NOT HAVE JESUS DOES HAVE, AND HE WILL GIVE THEM TO YOU AS YOU CONTINUE IN PRAYER, CONTINUE IN FAITH, AND CONTINUE IN HOPE!  I WAS MINISTERING IN A CERTAIN PLACE AND THE PEOPLE CAME IN DEFEATED AND WALKED OUT DEFEATED SUNDAY AFTER SUNDAY!  THEY HAD GIVEN UP HOPE. THE GROUP WAS JUST A FEW IN NUMBER, AND HAD BEEN STEEPED IN THE FALSE DOCTRINE OF PERMISSIVE WILL!  AS I WAS IN PRAYER ONE DAY, THE LORD REVEALED TO ME THAT THE RULER SPIRIT TRYING TO HINDER THEM WAS DEFEAT!   GOD TOLD ME HE HAD RAISED HIS STANDARD AGAINST THAT RULER SPIRIT OF DEFEAT!  THEN THE MOVE OF GOD WAS ON AND MIRACLE AFTER MIRACLE TRANSFORMED THAT PLACE! 

PEOPLE WERE SAVED, HEALED, BAPTIZED IN THE SPIRIT, AND DELIVERED!  IT GOT TO WHERE THE PLACE WAS FILLED FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK WITH THE POWER OF GOD, AS HE MET PEOPLE AND TRANSFORMED THEIR LIVES!  WHAT IF I HAD GIVEN INTO THE SPIRIT OF DEFEAT AND SAID “WHAT IS THE USE OF TRYING OR GOING ON?”  IF I HAD GIVEN UP HOPE, A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD NOT HAVE RECEIVED THE MIRACLES GOD HAD FOR THEM!  I KNEW OF NOWHERE ELSE IN THE WHOLE AREA WHERE THEY HAD THE ANOINTING TO DO MIRACLES OF GOD!

NEVER, EVER GIVE UP HOPE!  GOD IS ALL HOPE, NOT SOME HOPE ONCE IN A WHILE!  WITH GOD THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A HOPELESS CASE!  TO THOSE THAT SAT IN DARKNESS, THE GREAT LIGHT HAS RISEN AND SCATTERED THE DARKNESS!  “THE PEOPLE WHICH SAT IN DARKNESS SAW GREAT LIGHT, AND TO THEM WHICH SAT IN THE REGION AND SHADOW OF DEATH LIGHT IS SPRUNG UP!”  ( Matthew 4:16)    THERE IS NOTHING TOO HARD FOR THE LORD!  NOTHING!  “AH, LORD GOD!  IT IS YOU WHO HAVE MADE THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH BY YOUR GREAT POWER AND BY YOUR OUTSTRETCHED ARM!  NOTHING IS TOO HARD FOR YOU.”  (Jeremiah 32:17)  HE CAN CAUSE THE WATERS OF THE SEA TO ROLL BACK SO HIS PEOPLE CAN WALK TO SAFETY, AND BRING THE WATERS DOWN ON THE ENEMIES HEAD THAT THEY WERE DASHED TO THEIR DEATH AND DEFEATED AND UNABLE TO STOP THE PEOPLE OF GOD!  “NO EVIL WILL BEFALL YOU WHEN YOU HAVE MADE THE LORD, THE MOST HIGH YOUR HABITATION, AND DWELL IN THE SECRET PLACE OF THE MOST HIGH!”  (Psalm 91)

GOD IS FAR ABOVE IT ALL AND IN JESUS WE TOO ARE FAR ABOVE IT ALL!  IN HIM WE LIVE AND MOVE AND HAVE OUR BEING!  EPHESIANS 2 SAYS “JESUS MADE US ALIVE, WHO WERE DEAD IN TRESPASSES AND SINS, IN WHICH YOU ONCE WALKED ACCORDING TO THE COURSE OF THIS WORLD, ACCORDING TO THE PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR, THE SPIRIT WHO NOW WORKS IN THE SONS OF DISOBEDIENCE, AMONG WHOM ALSO WE ALL CONDUCTED OURSELVES IN THE LUSTS OF OUR FLESH, FULFILLING THE DESIRES OF THE FLESH AND OF THE MIND, AND WERE THE CHILDREN OF WRATH, JUST AS THE OTHERS.  BUT GOD, WHO IS RICH IN MERCY, BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE WITH WHICH HE LOVED US, EVEN WHEN WE WERE DEAD IN TRESPASSES, MADE US ALIVE TOGETHER WITH CHRIST(by grace you have been saved), AND RAISED US UP TOGETHER, AND MADE US SIT TOGETHER IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES IN CHRIST JESUS, THAT IN THE AGES TO COME HE MIGHT SHOW THE EXCEEDING RICHES OF HIS GRACE IN HIS KINDNESS TOWARD US IN CHRIST JESUS. FOR BY GRACE ARE HAVE BEEN SAVED THROUGH FAITH, AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES;  IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD, NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANYONE SHOULD BOAST.” (Ephesians 2:1-9.)  YOU ARE IN JESUS, FAR ABOVE IT ALL IN HEAVENLY PLACES, SITTING TOGETHER IN JESUS CHRIST!  YOUR POSITION IS IN JESUS CHRIST IN HEAVENLY PLACES SITTING RULING AND REIGNING IN LIFE!  YOU HAVE AUTHORITY IN THE NAME OF JESUS OVER IT ALL!  SICKNESS BOWS TO THE NAME OF JESUS!  CIRCUMSTANCE BOWS TO THE NAME OF JESUS!  VIRUS BOWS TO THE NAME OF JESUS!  DEMONS OF PIG SLOP RELIGION BOW TO THE NAME OF JESUS! 

WHEN THE DEVIL STIRS  UP THE STORM AGAINST YOU, DO NOT BACK DOWN, DO NOT RUN IN FEAR, DO NOT GIVE UP!  STAND STRONG IN JESUS!  HAVING DONE ALL TO STAND, STAND!  (Ephesians 6:13)  THE FIRST PART OF THIS VERSE SAYS TO TAKE THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD, THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND IN THE EVIL DAY!  READ ON TO SEE ALL THE ARMOR OF GOD!  AS YOU PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD YOU WILL STAND AGAINST IT ALL!  THEN YOU ARE NOT AFFECTED BY THE PRESENT EVIL CIRCUMSTANCE, BUT YOU ARE  STANDING OVER IT… OVER IT… OVER IT!  PRAISE GOD, NOW WE ARE GETTING SOMEWHERE!  THE HOLY SPIRIT IS MOVING IN YOUR SPIRIT RIGHT NOW AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE RECEIVING REVELATION ON THIS AND YOU WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN!  THE PRESENT EVIL CIRCUMSTANCE ARRAYED AGAINST YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY POWER OVER YOU!  YOU LIVE IN THE HOPE OF GOD, AND WILL WALK IN THE ABUNDANCE OF HOPE THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT!  HOPE MAKES YOU NOT ASHAMED!  THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE IN GOD!

REMEMBER, IN THE DAYS THAT WE LIVE IN, NOTHING IS TOO HARD FOR THE LORD!  WE LIVE FOR JESUS AND HE DOES NOT HAVE “SOME POWER,”  HE HAS ALL POWER, AND IS ALL POWERFUL!  REMEMBER, WE ARE SITTING WITH HIM IN HEAVENLY PLACES FAR ABOVE IT ALL!  REMEMBER, WE HAVE AUTHORITY AND POWER IN THE NAME OF JESUS OVER ALL EVIL AND WHATEVER OR WHOEVER COMES AGAINST US! 

“GOD HAS NOT GIVEN US A SPIRIT OF FEAR, BUT OF POWER, LOVE, AND A SOUND MIND!”  (2 Timothy 1:7)  FEAR NOT FOR GOD IS ON OUR SIDE AND WILL DO WHAT NO OTHER POWER CAN DO!  I PRAY RIGHT NOW FOR SOMEONE READING THIS THAT IT LOOKS LIKE THE TEST SAID YOU HAVE THE VIRUS, BUT I SAY:  “VIRUS BE GONE IN THE NAME OF JESUS, BE MADE WHOLE RIGHT NOW!”  TAKE YOUR HEALING IN JESUS NAME!  MIRACLES OF HEALING AND DELIVERANCE ARE FLOWING LIKE A MIGHTY RIVER!  WHATEVER YOU NEED BELIEVE GOD NOW, RAISE YOUR HANDS TO HEAVEN AND PRAISE JESUS FOR MEETING YOUR NEEDS NOW! 

JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, AND EVERY KNEE WILL BOW!  THERE IS HOPE FOR YOU!

IF YOU HAVE NEVER GIVEN YOUR LIFE TO JESUS, NOW IS THE TIME!  BELIEVE ON JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR AND THAT HE DIED FOR YOU, TOOK YOUR SINS ON THE CROSS, AND ROSE AGAIN FROM THE DEAD THAT IF YOU BELIEVE ON HIM YOU WOULD NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE!  TURN FROM THE PAST AND  TURN TO JESUS, GIVE HIM YOUR LIFE AND CONFESS JESUS CHRIST IS LORD AND YOU WILL BE SAVED!  YOU ARE NOT HOPELESS. JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD AND HE IS THE HOPE!
