So, who said life was supposed to go perfectly and we were going to attain the (North) American Dream, on our timeline? Besides, age is just a number, see, God is in control. How do I know that? Well, for one, we're not dead yet. Think about it! How many times do you think your life has been spared? Any near misses in your car lately? I mean, looking down for a second to pick up something you dropped, just a second, and of course the car veers about a foot into the oncoming traffic, one split second later and there would have been a crash! God forgive me, that was stupid. Am I the only one?
Well, how many times I wonder does that happen to the other driver and we don't even know about it? They could have nailed us! But, God keeps us, preserves us. Why, just to torment us with our daily trials? NO! I believe it's for us to enjoy and appreciate the life beyond the trials!!
I had no idea how critical and condemning and non-appreciative of life I was before now. I had to lose everything, my house, cars, and it was no great sin that brought me to this point, in fact, the circumstances were completely out of my control and I was following hard after God and in obedience to him all the way! Then, he allowed this? Now, the people that were judging me through that are facing what I faced. As well as some that were my greatest source of encouragement. DON'T JUDGE! YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT GOD ALLOWS AND WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU MAY BE NEXT. Keep your thoughts pure.
I mean, we are so spoiled on this continent! Yes, there is poverty even here, but there is more richness on this soil than poverty, comparatively speaking. We have it all!! And we don't even realize it or appreciate it, until it's taken away. Then, we we'd gladly "settle for" what we had that we thought was so little before.
God is faithful though, it is the enemy that stole from us, and God will restore ALL. Above all God wants us to prosper and be in health, even as our soul prospers. He wants us to have it all more then we want it for ourselves, but he wants us to realize what we already have first. That others don't have the hope of having without some grand divine intervention. Wake up! We're sissies!!!!! :) More importantly, he wants our desires to change about what we want to do with what we have. Do we want more stuff for ourselves, or do we really want to GIVE with complete disregard for what is logical?
For those of you that haven't lost it all or don't face the threat of losing it all take stock of what you have and be thankful for it! Do not be focused on what you don't have. life is short. We are all rich. If you can't have your own kids, adopt, become foster parents, do it now! Who knows, you may have your own kids in the long run, but enlarge the place of your dwelling, now!!! Don't wait!!! There are so many lives you can touch, allow him to use you and move through you and touch and bless through you!!!
What are you waiting for? You have a dream in you, go for it!! There's a reason none of the logical doors are opening for you. There's a reason for the closing in, the claustrophbia, the lack. Yes, they're curses to be broken, so break them, in the name of Jesus and step up and move forward!!!! The word says, I GIVE YOU AUTHORITY!!! IN MY NAME YOU WILL.... not might, or wouldda couldda shouldda... GREATER works than these will you do, for I go to the Father. He wants to use US - that's YOU and me, to bring glory to his name, and all people to him!!!
Mark 16:17-18 (The Message)"These are some of the signs that WILL accompany believers: They WILL throw out demons in my name, they WILL speak in new tongues, they WILL take snakes in their hands, they WILL drink poison and not be hurt, they WILL lay hands on the sick and make them well."
WHAT IN HELL ARE WE WAITING FOR?????????? Let's beat hell to the punch, get off our blessed assurances, fight the battle, win souls and take the spoil, for Christ's sake!!!! THIS IS THE DAY, THIS IS THE HOUR, NOW IS THE TIME AND WE ARE THE PEOPLE!!! Don't let this opportunity pass you by! THE TIME IS NOW!
God I pray in the name of Jesus that you would break demonic strongholds in our lives that are keeping us from accomplishing your will on this earth. May your Kingdom come and your will be done ON EARTH as it is in heaven, NOW, rise up in us, let our enemies be scattered, let them no longer have the victory in our lives, we are not victims, we are conquerers through Christ that can render the enemy powerless! Lord, move in a mighty, awesome and powerful way right now, don't let the enemy take anymore ground than he already has, blow wide open the gates of hell and let your kingdom prevail here, now in the name of Jesus. Break off lack, timidity, fear, parylization. You are the God of more than enough and you have an awesome destiny for each of us. Open closed doors, give us favor and provision where we need it. Break our hearts with the things that break yours and cause us to see where you would have us move and bring your life and light in the name of Jesus!!! YOu are KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS and NOTHING is impossible for you. Cause a new stamina and endurance to rise up in us. The power that raised Christ from the dead is in us! We can do all that you called us to do. No more delays Lord, start responding to our cries so that we may have the confidence to cry out all the more for your will to be established here on earth. Signs and Wonders!!!!
Lord, bring provision where there is lack. Open doors where there seems to be no direction, bring someone to them to speak life and encouragement. Cause a knowing in the spirits of your people to KNOW that NOW is the time, you want to move NOW. The culmination of all that you put in us is to spring forth NOW. I just break the power of sickness and disease in the name of Jesus. Despair, GO! Depression, GO! Curses you are broken in the name of Jesus. I speak FIRE, LIFE! Dominion!!! We have overcome, I call forth a breaker anointing. Lord, light the way, illumine the path and bring your power to every desolate and desperate situation in the lives of your people. Let us no more be wandering, wavering, waiting and hoping, but walking in faith and power and victory in Christ Jesus, for YOUR name's sake!!!!
We cannot be cursed, the weapons of hell WILL NOT prosper. We are MIGHTY through God. Lord, let a sound of worship rise up from your people. Break the apathy and slumber right now in the name of Jesus. Break any barrier to intimacy with you and show up and show forth your great splendor in the earth!!!!! Lord, we want to see you move here. Lord come in power. Do not leave us waiting. Put a hunger and a drive in us to GO and DO ALL that you have called us to do in Jesus' name!!!! You are a mighty, awesome and powerful God and we praise you and thank you for all you have done and all you are doing.
Thank you for messing us up, so that we can step up, into your divine destiny for our lives, in Jesus' name, AMEN.
