Growing in Faith ...

Be Strong In Grace

Many of us are going through a new level of struggles. This course, with its stern, stretching is not something we have become accustomed to, as least for me it has not been.

We have to get to that point along this road we travel as His children to place and all out faith in Him like we have never had before.

We are used to calling out in our distresses and having Him come to our aid in the manner we have become so accustomed to that when He decides it’s time for us to have to believe Him even for our very own breath we as seasoned intercessors become paralyzed by fear.

When God has closed all doors that man can open in your situation it’s not time to accept the impossible, it’s just time for {us} to take our hands off the situation and STOP hindering His hand… Put your bull dozer away because if God closed it it will not open!

The spirit of fear may find a place by reason of one’s ‘natural’ temperament. But it’s not merely a human disposition; it is not from God. Fear can immobilize and torment its victims, making them feel powerless and alone, 1 John 4:18, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment.”

Indecision or wrong decisions are made that could give place to bondage and great human suffering. In the face of fear, we are to remember our calling from God, 2 Timothy 1:6,”Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.”

We have within us:

1} The power of God, through the Holy Spirit, enabling us to no longer be victims, 2 Timothy 1:7, “God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”

2} The perfect love of God, poured into our lives through Jesus Christ, Romans 5:5, “Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”

3} The mind of Christ by which we can apply the ways of God in making “sound” choices, 2 Timothy 1:7, “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”

Applying this truth determines whether we overcome fear or are overcome by it. 1 John 5:4, “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And in this victory that has overcome the world----our faith.”

No matter what mountain your might be facing today, no matter how high or wide it may seem in the natural, know that your faith in Jesus has eternally secured your victory in overcoming it {whatever it may be} not somehow but ‘triumphantly’.

Pray according to God’s will and believe that you have what you ask for. Alert an intercessor and have them pray with you. KNOW THIS; whatever is not of God shall not prevail. The greatest weapon of our warfare during this time is worship! See you all in the Throne Room!

In His Love,
