The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the Lord. Psalm 97:5 No matter where you are, the Lord is with you. Even in the midst of your fears, while you are alone in your room, He is there with you. The moment you begin to be aware of His presence and cultivate His presence, all your fears, anxieties and worries will melt like butter on a hot day, or as the psalmist David puts it, "The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the Lord."
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: according as he hath chosen us in him, before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love, having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will. Ephesians 1:3-5
God can and does work any way He chooses. But God did not create you to need only Him. That may sound dangerous to say, but hear me out. God does not work alone. There are at least three ways in which God is not all you need. I know what it's like to look for validation and fulfillment from other people, trying to please them in order to be OK myself and believing what they said about me. And my life didn't become better until I went to God for what only He can provide. But that's only part of the equation. We get in trouble when we look for things in the wrong place. If you look to people for what only God can give, you'll always be disappointed. But you'll be just as disappointed if you expect God to magically douse you with what He has designed you to get from human relationships.
As we have entered a new decade, the Lord spoke to me in prayer about what He described this coming season to be. He said that it will be a season for the believer of which "eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has it entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him" (1 Cor. 2:9). I believe that the body of Christ has experienced tough times and is looking for a beacon of hope that God is about to come through for them. The Lord says that He is bringing many of you into a place of fulfillment. The Lord also says that you are coming into your season of unseen breakthrough.
Who or WHAT in your life is binding you to your past and preventing you from moving ahead? Those circumstances, friends, failures, voices of shame or memories that we are so bound to as human beings. That's "natural" and real stuff friends. But God wants us to live in the Dimension of a Spiritual life my friends. And that's super-natural. Divine Living! When we turn, when we leave our past behind, (no you don't just ignore it!) It's a daily choice to not dig in the pile of pain, and often-immature places of not knowing how to handle certain situations.Â
The Bible story in Genesis 40:1–23 tells of two individuals who had similar dreams about their jobs in the King's palace on the same night but with two very different interpretations and drastically different outcomes. The Pharaohs of Egypt commanded great power and presence. Their servants' lives often hung in the balance. To simply frown in Pharaoh's presence could result in a death sentence. The King's official cupbearer and baker had offended their master. He was enraged so he summoned the captain of the guard to arrest and confine them to the same prison as Joseph. The captain knew that there was something uniquely special about Joseph. It was evident that the hand of the Lord rested on him.
If you've ever tried to build a fire by simply lighting logs, it didn't take you long to realize it just doesn't work. Aside from throwing gasoline on it, it has to start small—kindling, twigs, sticks—then build. It's easy to get frustrated, especially if the fire is the one thing promising you heat in the near future. We often ignore the process under pressure. We want quick fixes. Instant heat. Roaring flames from nothing. Once the foundation is built, a raging fire will consume just about anything, even wood that's wet. It's a lot easier to maintain than to build, too. We know that's true in most areas of life.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 To be the "substance," it means that something was projected and then the manifestation followed, because it is "evidence." There is good faith and bad faith - faith for evil and faith for good! Faith "alone" is not always just good. There are projections that go each way and witchcraft specializes in the dark side. Whether we like it or not, things are happening on both sides! So our skill has to be on overcoming evil with good and knowing Jesus.
We have been under attack globally with the coronavirus. I have been waiting on the Lord and praying daily over this. On February 25, the Lord showed me the root of the attack and a prayer strategy to break it. "° When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him." Isaiah 59:19 NKJV The global attack of the coronavirus is against the global outpouring that is coming to the Earth. Many of the prophets have been releasing prophetic words about a coming global move of God—revival. This is a direct attack against revival. "Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." Ecclesiastes 4:12 NIV
Have you ever driven through a region and felt a heaviness? Have you walked into a store or a person's home, and it felt dark? I'm sure we've all had encounters where we have felt the negative and the positive, but how do we change the spiritual atmosphere when we are somewhere and we can feel the presence of darkness? Praise changes the atmosphere. Worship changes the atmosphere. The power of our words changes the atmosphere.
