Power To Live The Abundant Life

AMAZING GRACE, HOW SWEET THE SOUND… SOUND COMES OUT OF OUR MOUTHS AS WE  SPEAK OR SING, AND WHEN WE SPEAK OR SING PRAISES TO GOD IN THE SPIRIT HE INHABITS,DWELLS IN, LIVES IN OUR PRAISES…HIS PRESENCE MANIFESTS AND DRIVES OUT EVIL, AND BRINGS THE BLESSINGS AND POWER OF GOD INTO OUR LIVES TO BRING THE WORD OF GOD TO PASS! 

PSALM 149  PRAISE YOU THE LORD, SING TO THE LORD A “NEW SONG,” AND HIS PRAISE IN THE CONGREGATION OF SAINTS!  WHY DO YOU THINK THAT THE LARGEST BOOK OF THE BIBLE WITH 150 CHAPTERS IS A BOOK FULL OF PRAISE TO GOD INCLUDING SINGING A “NEW SONG” TO AND OF THE LORD AS PRAISE TO ALMIGHTY GOD?!    PSALM 40:1-4 I WAITED PATIENTLY FOT THE LORD; AND HE INCLINED TO ME, AND HEARD MY CRY.  HE BROUGHT ME UP ALSO OUT OF AN HORRIBLE PIT, OUT OF THE MIRY CLAY, AND SET MY FEET UPON A ROCK, AND ESTABLISHED MY GOINGS, AND HE HAS PUT A “NEW SONG” IN MY MOUTH, EVEN PRAISE TO OUR GOD:  MANY SHALL SEE IT, AND  FEAR, AND SHALL TRUST IN THE LORD.

PSALM 149: 2-9 says that God’s people are to be joyful in their King, and to praise His name in the DANCE, and to SING PRAISES TO HIM WITH TIMBREL AND HARP.  The Lord takes pleasure in His people: he will beautify the meek with salvation. Let the saints be joyful In glory: let them SING aloud upon their beds. Let the HIGH PRAISES OF GOD be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand; to execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people; to BIND their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron; to execute upon them the judgment written: this honor have all his saints. Praise you the Lord! HERE IS THE PICTURE OF ALL evil THAT IS AGAINST US BEING TOTALLY DEFEATED AND CRUSHED AS WE SING PRAISES TO GOD!!!                         God avenges his people who praise Him, and worship Him in Spirit and in truth!  The devil and his crowd will be bound and unable to do you harm as you believe God and what He says so there is GREAT POWER, AND GREAT DELIVERANCE  that comes as we praise God, rejoice in Jesus Christ, and have no confidence in the flesh!

When we sing praises to God we are in harmony with heaven, and then all “HEAVEN” breaks loose!  In 2 Chronicles 20 you can see the power of a song!  The report came to Jehoshaphat that a great multitude of enemy armies was coming to destroy the people of God!  He set himself to seek the Lord and proclaimed a fast!  Fasting is denying yourself food for a time for spiritual purposes and to seek God!  Isaiah 58 will show you the power of fasting! 

The people of God came together to seek the Lord and said to the Lord:  “We have no might against this great company that comes against us, neither do we know what to do, BUT our eyes are on YOU!” Then the Spirit of God came on Jahaziel:  “Thus says the Lord to you, be not afraid or dismayed by reason of is great multitude, for the battle is NOT yours, but GOD’S.” JEHOSHAPHAT SAID: “BELIEVE IN THE LORD YOUR GOD, SO SHALL YOU BE ESTABLISHED; believe his prophets, so shall you prosper!”

Then God told them where the enemy would be and to go down against them!  Now, you know it took real faith to go down against enemies that were there to destroy them that outnumbered them many times over!!!! All God’s people bowed their head to the ground and fell before the Lord, worshipping the Lord!  Then the Levites stood up to praise the Lord God!  Jehoshaphat APPOINTED SINGERS to the Lord, and that they should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out BEFORE THE ARMY, AND TO SAY, PRAISE THE LORD; FOR HIS MERCY ENDURES FOREVER.

AND WHEN THEY BEGAN TO “SING” AND TO PRAISE, THE LORD SET AMBUSHMENTS AGAINST ALL  THE WICKED ONES, AND THEY WERE SMITTEN!  THE ENEMIES TURNED ON EACH OTHER (thus the divide and destroy their tongues prayer comes alive), and when Judah came they saw the whole multitude that came against them were dead, and NONE escaped!  God blessed the people of God and the spoil they received of riches, precious jewels was more than they could carry!  ( the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the just)  They returned to Jerusalem with JOY for the Lord made them to rejoice over their enemies!  They came with psalteries and harps and trumpets to the house of the Lord!  the fear of God hit all around when they heard that God fought against the enemies of Israel!

The SINGERS were sent out in front of the army SINGING to the Lord and praising God and GOD brought the complete victory!  THE POWER OF A SONG! NEVER, EVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A SONG FOR THE SONG THAT IS PRAISE TO GOD, GOD INHABITS, DWELLS AND LIVES IN, AND HIS PRESENCE WILL MANIFEST AND WHATEVER PEOPLE NEED WILL HAPPEN!  Psalm 32:7 YOU ARE MY HIDING PLACE;   YOU WILL SURROUND ME WITH SONGS OF DELIVERANCE.

WHEN WE SING THE SONG OF JESUS WE ARE SYMPHONIZING AND HARMONIZING WITH HEAVEN! AGREEING,  IN ACCORD WITH THE SAME HOLY SPIRIT THAT INSPIRES THE MUSIC AND SONG OF HEAVEN!  EPHESIANS 5:18,19 AND BE NOT DRUNK WITH WINE WHEREIN IS EXCESS; BUT BE FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT; SPEAKING TO YOURSELVES IN PSALMS AND HYMNS AND SPIRITUAL SONGS, SINGING AND MAKING MELODY IN YOUR HEART TO THE LORD.  THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES ON THE WINGS OF PRAISE AS WE SING SONGS OF THE LORD AND SONGS OF PRAISE AND DELIVERANCE, PRAISE GOD!  HE WILL SURROUND YOU WITH SONGS OF DELIVERANCE AND ALL the demons WILL HAVE TO LEAVE AS THE ANOINTING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES IN AND ON YOU!!!

PSALM 118:14 THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH AND “SONG,” AND IS BECOME MY SALVATION!  THE LORD “IS” THE SONG!  OH, PRAISE GOD IT IS TIME TO SHOUT HALLELUJAH AND SING A SONG OF PRAISE TO GOD RIGHT ABOUT NOW!  PRAISE JESUS FOREVER AND EVER! 

GOD IS SO GOOD AND BEYOND OUR FINITE MINDS!  I HAVE PLAYED AND SANG WITH A FEW BANDS AND DID A SONG CALLED “THE COWBOY RIDES AWAY” BY GEORGE STRAIT!   I NOTICED THAT WHEN I WOULD SING THE CHORUS SOMETHING SPECIAL SEEMED TO HAPPEN!  “NOW MY HEART IS SINKING LIKE THE SETTIN SUN, SETTIN
G ON THE THINGS I WISH ID DONE!  OH THE LAST GOODBYE’S THE HARDEST ONE TO SAY!  THIS IS WHERE THE COWBOY RIDES AWAY!”  ( that is the chorus)  ONE NIGHT WHEN I SANG IT AND GOT TO THE CHORUS THAT “SPECIAL” UMPH CAME IN!  LATER I FOUND OUT THAT SOMEONE I DIDN’T KNOW WAS STANDING IN THE BACK AND AFTER THAT HE DIDN’T SMOKE AT ALL, COMPLETELY DELIVERED FROM SMOKING 3 PACKS A DAY WITH NO WITHDRAWAL, NO CRAVINGS, BUT TOTALLY SET FREE!  PRAISE GOD,  THE POWER OF A SONG, NEVER UNDER ESTIMATE IT WHEN A BELIEVER WHO LOVES JESUS SINGS IT, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES IN IT!

DAVID PLAYED SONGS ON THE HARP AND demons HAD TO LEAVE KING SAUL! AT MIDNIGHT PAUL AND SILAS, WRONGFULLY IMPRISONED FOR THEIR STAND FOR JESUS, PRAYED AND “SANG PRAISES” TO GOD: AND THE PRISONERS HEARD THEM. AND SUDDENLY THERE WAS A GREAT EARTHQUAKE, SO THAT THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE PRISON WERE SHAKEN:  AND IMMEDIATELY ALL THE DOORS WERE OPENED AND EVERY ONE’S BANDS  WERE LOOSED.  ACTS 16:25, 26  NOW THERE IS THE POWER OF A SONG AND SINGING PRAISE TO GOD!  GOD’S MIGHTY POWER COMES AND ALL hell  HAS TO LEAVE IN JESUS NAME!

Psalm 149 PRAISE YOU THE LORD. SING TO THE LORD A NEW SONG, AND HIS PRAISE IN THE CONGREGATION OF SAINTS.  PSALM 40 “I WAITED PATIENTLY FOR THE LORD; AND HE INCLINED  TO ME, AND HEARD MY CRY.  HE BROGHT ME UP ALSO OUT OF AN HORRIBLE PIT, OUT OF THE MIRY CLAY, AND SET MY FEET ON A ROCK, AND ESTABLISHED MY GOINGS. HE HAS PUT A “NEW SONG” IN MY MOUTH, EVEN PRAISE TO OUR GOD:   MANY SHALL SEE IT, AND FEAR, AND TRUST IN THE LORD. 

EXODUS 15:2, PSALM 118:14  BOTH SAY THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH AND SONG!
THE LORD “IS” THE SONG!  PRAISE GOD, PRAY ON THAT, MEDITATE ON THAT AND GET IT IN YOUR SPIRIT YOU WILL SEE MARVELOUS THINGS HAPPEN AS YOU SING THE NEW SONG  IN  PRAISE TO GOD AND AS OTHERS SING UNDR THE ANOINTING OF THE SPIRIT!  THE PRISON THE devil HAS TRIED TO PUT YOU IN WILL BE BLOWN APART BY THE POWER OF GOD RELEASED IN THE SONG, AND THE SHACKLES OF DEPRESSION AND OPPRESSION by demons WILL BE CRUSHED AND YOU WILL BE MADE FREE, AND FREE INDEED IN JESUS NAME!

IT IS HIGH TIME TO AWAKE OUT OF SLEEP AND AWAKE TO RIGHTEOUSNESS AND WHAT PLEASES GOD!  FAITH PLEASES GOD, AND WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD, SO THESE HYPOCRITES WHO GO AROUND TRYING TO “CRITICIZE” THE WAY THE HOLY SPIRIT IS MOVING AND DELIVERING PEOPLE ARE FULL OF UNBELIEF FOR IF THEY MOVED IN FAITH THEY WOULD LOVE THE SPIRIT OF FAITH, EVEN THE HOLY SPIRIT!

GOD’S WORD IS A LAMP FOR OUR FEET AND A  LIGHT TO OUR PATHWAY!  THE ENTRANCE OF YOUR WORDS GIVES LIGHT!  LIGHT SCATTERS THE DARKNESS AND BRINGS US INTO BLESSING AFTER BLESSING FROM JESUS!  IN FACT “JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD!”

NOW YOU HAVE A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE A LOT OF LIGHT FROM GOD THROUGH HIS WORD!   THIS ASSIGNMENT IS VERY IMPORTANT AND WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE DRAMATICALLY FOR THE BETTER AND BRING MORE JOY INSIDE YOUR HEART THAN YOU HAVE EVER KNOWN!  THE PAST YEAR HAS SEEN MANY HARDSHIPS AND CALAMITIES AS MANY LOST SO MUCH, EVEN THEIR LIVES!  NOW IT IS TIME TO REDEEM THE TIME FOR THE DAYS ARE EVIL!  GOD SAID NOT TO BE OVERCOME BY EVIL, BUT TO OVERCOME EVIL BY GOOD!  THE WORD OF GOD IS GOOD AS GOD IS GOOD, AND JESUS IS THE LIVING WORD OF GOD!

LET’S ALL READ THE WHOLE BOOK OF PSALMS AND AS WE DO, LET’S DO WHAT IT SAYS!  SO, WE ARE GOING TO BE PRAISING GOD WITH OUR WHOLE HEART AND STRENGTH WITH THE PSALMIST!  AS WE PRAISE HIM OUR ENEMIES WILL VANISH, AND SORROW WILL BE TURNED TO JOY AND REJOICING AS WE SEE THE REVELATION OF WHO JESUS IS AND THAT HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!  AS WE PRAISE THE LORD HE WILL INHABIT OUR PRAISES AND THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD WILL MANIFEST IN OUR LIVES IN POWERFUL HEAVENLY WAYS!  THERE IS A CHORUS FROM YESTERYEAR THAT SAYS: “HEAVEN CAME DOWN AND GLORY FILLED MY SOUL; MY SINS WERE WASHED AWAY, AND MY NIGHT WAS TURNED TO DAY; HEAVEN CAME DOWN AND GLORY FILLED MY SOUL!”  PRAISE GOD THAT JUST MAKES ME WANT TO SHOUT! 

THERE IS NO TIME LIMIT ON THIS, BUT KEEP READING UNTIL YOU HAVE READ ALL THE PSALMS!  AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE READ THEM ALOUD AND YOU WILL BE DOUBLE BLESSED!

LORD JESUS I PRAY FOR EACH PRECIOUS SOUL THAT IS HERE AND WILL BE READING AND SPEAKING YOUR BOOK OF PRAISE, THE PSALMS!  IN JESUS NAME I LOOSE SPECIAL ANOINTING ON THIS TO DESTROY THE YOKE OF BONDAGE, SET PEOPLE FREE INDEED, BRING HEALING TO THE SICK,DELIVERANCE FOR THE OPPRESSED, AND THAT THE SPIRIT OF PRAISE WILL IGNITE IN EACH PERSONS HEART A FLAME THAT WILL DEVOUR THE ENEMY AND SET PEOPLE FREE ALL AROUND THEM EVERYWHERE THEY GO!  THANK YOU JESUS, I CALL IT DONE, AND GIVE YOU ALL THE PRAISE AND GLORY FOR YOU ALONE ARE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS!  AMEN!

FOR THE NEXT 5 DAYS THE NEW ASSIGNMENT IS TO READ THE BOOK OF  JAMES AND EPHESIANS EVERY DAY, PROVERBS 18:21, MARK 11:22-24, AND INTENSIFY PRAYING IN TONGUES AND SINGING IN TONGUES AND MAKING MELODY IN YOUR HEART TO THE LORD, AND PRAISING GOD! 

Memorize Proverbs 18:21, Ephesians 5:18,19, and Mark 11:22-24 and speak them out loud in faith believing!

Also, make 3 new different FAITH CONFESSIONS  EVERY DAY! Speak faith over all circumstances, now and future, over all that concerns you, over things you are believing God for, and SPEAK THE WORD OF GOD PROMISES THE HOLY SPIRIT BRINGS TO MIND IN FAITH BELIEVING BOLD AS A LION!

For example:  IN JESUS NAME I WILL NOT FEAR WHAT MAN WILL DO TO ME FOR THE WEAPONS OF MY WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL, BUT MIGHTY THROUGH GOD TO THE PULLING DOWN OF STRONGHOLDS!!!

PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR SO SPIRITS OF FEAR YOU ARE BOUND AND LEAVE ME NOW BECAUSE THE PERFECT LOVE OF GOD IS SHED ABROAD IN MY HEART BY THE HOLY GHOST!!!

AT THE END OF THE 5 DAYS THERE WILL BE MANY TESTIMONIES OF THE GREATNESS OF GOD AND THE MARVELOUS GREAT THINGS HE HAS DONE!!!!!!! GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST!!!!!!! PRAISE HIM, PRAISE HIM, PRAISE HIM FOREVER AND EVER!

BY THE WAY EVERYONE … NEWS FLASH… NEWS FLASH… PRAY IN TONGUES OF THE SPIRIT FOR THE NEXT 3 DAYS AS MUCH AS YOU CAN… GOING TO SCHOOL OR WORK, DRIVING HOME, AT HOME, IN THE COUNTRY, IN THE CITY, PRAY OVER EVERYTHING AND FOR THE WILL OF GOD TO BE DONE IN EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN! AMAZING, OUT OF THIS WORLD, BEYOND ANYTHING WE HAVE EVER SEEN SIGNS, WONDERS, AND MIRACLES ARE GOING TO HAPPEN ALL OVER THE WORLD SIMULTANEOUSLY AND IN YOUR PERSONAL LIFE, WORK, TOWN, CITY AND WHEREVER YOU GO IN THE NAME OF JESUS!

You have seen great battles and war against you in your lives, but FEAR NOT, for God is with you!  Do NOT be discouraged, for God will strengthen and deliver you in very powerful ways that will SHAKE the Devil and his group to the CORE, and SHAKE them down to NOTHING, and they will be POWERLESS before you!  God goes before you and makes the crooked places straight, and breaks in PIECES the gates of brass!   

NOTHING will be able to harm you, or hinder you as you march forward in the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND IN THE NAME OF JESUS!  This is the end time REVIVAL OF GREAT AND EXCEEDING POWER where the glory of God will be seen, and darkness will FLEE AWAY, and you shall STAND STRONG in the grace and power of God! 

ALL the prayers of God’s people through the ages will come to fruition and be answered and come to pass in THIS GENERATION, in THIS END TIME MINISTRY OF THE HOLY GHOST and FIRE!

GOD SITS UPON HIS THRONE AND HIS KINGDOM RULES OVER ALL!  Be not afraid of ANYTHING, NEVER give up hope; do NOT despair for Jesus Christ stands with arms outstretched, and HOLY GHOST FIRE comes out of His hands into you and you are healed, delivered, and will be Spirit filled, and the anointing of the Holy Ghost will literally DESTROY ALL the works of the devil, SET YOU FREE, and move through this earth from one to another until the end will come, and Jesus will call us up, and so shall we ever be with the Lord! 

FEAR NOT!  FEAR NOT!  FEAR NOT I SAY;  ONLY BELIEVE!

We are in this together and if one falls down another will pick them up!  There will be no big I’s and little you’s!  Jesus Christ will be exalted as King of Kings and Lord of Lords!  The needs of God’s people will be met as they live for love, worship Him in Spirit and in truth!  You will not lack anything you need as you look to your “SUPPLIER” of every need, even JESUS CHRIST! 

Do NOT doubt; have NO unbelief or shadow of turning, for God’s PEACE WILL RULE in your heart and life, and you will walk all over the and CRUSH THE DEVIL’s head, and his plans and devices will be melted away before the FIRE  of the Holy Ghost! 

The  angels,  ministering spirits of God will surround and deliver you!  OUR GOD IS GREATER than calamity, GREATER than pestilence, and plagues, and in the secret place of the Most High will you abide as you make the MOST HIGH your habitation and dwelling place, and NO evil will befall you!

REJOICE, REJOICE, AND AGAIN I SAY: REJOICE, for the time of YOUR VISITATION has come!  Lift up holy hands without wrath or doubting!  Praise Him in the dance; Sing praises; Praise Him on the stringed instruments!  Praise Him who has redeemed you from the hand of the enemy, and you WILL SEE THE GLORY OF GOD, and the darkness will be scattered, and we will be be glad! 

NOT ONE WORD OF GOD will fail or fall to the ground, but it SHALL ALL COME TO PASS in these last days!  There are some people that have entertained thoughts of totally giving up because of the pressure and demonic feeling of HOPELESSNESS!
THUS SAYS THE LORD:
    “STAND UP, BE FREE, I AM YOUR HOPE, I AM THE LIFE, AND THE WAY, AND 
      THE TRUTH! 
      YOU WILL NOT DIE, YOU WILL NOT GIVE UP, FOR I RELEASE YOU NOW BY
      MY POWER AND GRACE!
      RAISE YOUR HANDS IN WORSHIP  TO YOUR GOD AND LORD JESUS CHRIST,
      FOR HE MAKES YOU WHOLE!

      MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL NOT FALL OR FAIL, BUT
      WILL OVERCOME satan BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB AND THE WORD OF       
      THEIR TESTIMONY! 

      JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, LOOK UP, FOR YOUR REDEMPTION DRAWS NIGH!”

There is a new post coming for the end times we live in.  Prepare yourselves to receive it so that you will be ready to flow with God! 

Scriptures:  John 7:38, 2Timothy 4:2, 1Peter3:15, Matthew 25:1-46,Proverbs 6:6-8, Matthew 24:42-44, Romans13:11, Luke14:28, Romans12:1-2, Joel 2, Acts 2, Ezekial 11:19, Isaiah 44:3

Prepare yourselves as you pray, meditate on the Word of God, seek God and praise Jesus!  Get before God and wait on Him!  There is a new post coming that is going to get down deep on the inside of you and transform your life completely, deliver you completely, make you whole, heal and deliver you from all demons, oppression, vexation, and nervous torment and breakdown! 

YOU WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN for my God is sending His FIRE to burn out all the chaff and DROSS so you will be READY and be able for the end time harvest! 

Nothing takes God by surprise!  Nothing shakes Him or can EVER defeat Him in ANY way so put your whole faith and trust in Him!  What He says will come to pass!  He will do what NO other power can do! 

God said to me He is going to make up to you ALL that you have suffered and make you complete as if it NEVER HAPPENED! 

2 Chronicles 7:14  “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

  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!
