What if a huge Suma wrestler came up to you. He then grabbed your arms behind you and put a scimitar sword to your throat?
What would we do if this happened?God forbid this happen to us in the flesh, however, it does happen to us in the spiritual realm…… Are we trained in our spirit man to call out on the name of Jesus Christ as our first response?
If we would understand how important it is to feed our spirit man. When this happens we can act according to the Word in the Spirit or by our flesh in fear. We should speak out the command of the Lord, be cast away- be gone in the name of Jesus Christ. The enemy has no hold on us…..
Now I am speaking from standing in the place- we have died to our sin nature. We stand from the place of victory in our Lord… We have the Spirit of the Living God within and we live from the Spirit’s strength not our fleshly desires.
We know the Word. The Word says one thing about His people. His word stands above all that is spoken against His people. As the Word says the how great is our God and the Lord is King….. Any man can dispute His word, but man will be shown to be in the wrong.
Our heritage is to stand strong in what has been written regarding us in Isaiah 54:17, No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me, says the Lord.
Jesus Christ spoke to us in Luke 11:11-22, If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Of if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish?
Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!
And he was casting out a demon, and it was mute. So it was, when the demon had gone out, that the mute spoke; and the multitudes marveled.
But some of them said, He casts out demons by Beezelbub, the ruler of demons.
Others, testings Him, sought Him a sign from heaven.
But He knowing their thoughts, said to them: Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls.
If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Because you say I cast out demons by Beelzebub.
And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
But if I cast out demons with the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.
When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace.
But when a stronger man than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils.
Now we have the Spirit of the Living God dwelling within us…. Remember, our only hope of glory is Christ within us…. according to the written Word in Colossians. The One who created all is within us…… The battle is the Lord’s and the Lord’s Spirit is within us…….. Whom shall we fear?
The Lord spoke this to His disciples, then and now today…
And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, Receive the Holy Spirit.
If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them, if you retain the sins of any, they are retained, ( John 20:22-23).
Having received the Holy Spirit, the work of Satan against the Lord and His anointed, can the work of darkness be bound? Did not the Lord speak to us that the gates of hell shall not prevail His kingdom?
Have we been given the authority in His name to expand the Light and strength of the Kingdom of God?……. We have to know way inside of us, the strength and the power of the name of Jesus Christ. We have to continually build up and live by the Truth in faith – His Spirit, the power of God is within us…… Again, whom shall we fear?
If we are sure of our inheritance in the Son of God, Jesus Christ, we will walk in peace regarding our place in the kingdom of God.
If we have doubts, well, they need to be made final today, one way or the other.
As written, the truth of God says in 1 John 5:18-20, We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one cannot touch him.
We know that we are born of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
If we have received the seal of the Holy Spirit declaring before God that we are His, we have the authority from heaven to bring heaven here and bind the darkness.
So when the spiritual wrestler TRIES to comes to hold you and intimidate, the power of the risen Christ within us rises up and out of us….. We can say- be cast away, in the name of Jesus Christ. It shall be done according to our faith…..
We must not allow what we feel to be our guide of salvation. The Word of God stands through many days. The Lord has proven His faithfulness and His might before us day in and day out….. Through dark days and through the days full of laughter and joy in fellowship within His kingdom.
What He has declared over our lives is the status……What His Word speaks of His beloved, we are….. If we know we are born from above in God, we are His…..Keep our eyes on Him, He will bring us through it all- our weakness will be made strong and the enemy’s assaults will roll out on to the shore and evaporate.
The Lord is sanctifying and has sanctified us as He spoke in John 17…..
The power of the Holy Spirit is within to meet every challenge that Satan tries to deliver us….. We are victorious in the Lord. Remember, the Word speaks that it is not by might or by power but by the Spirit of God……. The promise of the Father is how we stand victorious before the Lord on His day.
By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and now is already in the world.
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them.
We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error, ( 1 John 4:2-6).
By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit, ( 1 John 4:13).
So when the big and nasty comes near us, we should have stored within us the Truth of God, by the Word and of the Spirit of the Living God within us….. to impute to this antichrist spirit to hit the road……… Do not be deceived, He who is within you is greater than the one in the world…… Cast him away and move on with the work of the Lord.
We know that it is the Lord’s day everyday, even though there may be coming soon a greater LORD’S Day….
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, (Ephesians 6:10)….
Take heed the warning of Paul to Timothy in 2 Timothy 3:5, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust, ( 2 Peter 1:2-4).
We need to be so engulfed in God and walking by the Spirit. We will always be made aware of the snare of the enemy before it happens and stand in prayer, speaking the name that is above all names against the darkness. The devil will flee and our King gets the glory…..
So let us keep on gathering for His kingdom and step over the trap of the enemy in power of His name.
Selah!
Children,
There is a purpose in every thought I AM lays before you. Take My thoughts as your daily bread that I AM has placed before you. Take and eat…… I AM has prepared a table before you in the presence of your enemies. So delight in My Food….. My Food is overflowing with goodness. Do not delay in seeking your place before I AM at dawn and dusk….. I AM will meet you always….. for I AM is always with you.
Let I AM’s thoughts grow into perfect mosaic of life I AM is creating in you. These thoughts turn into a impenetrable wall when the enemy tries to impede My purpose.
Little children, your sins are forgiven.
Fathers, you have known I AM who is from the beginning.
Young men, you have overcome the wicked one.
Little children, you have known the Father.
Fathers, you have known I AM who is from the beginning.
Young men, you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.
The grace given from I AM permeates your soul into knowing I AM.
I AM is eternal life. You have I AM, you are in eternal life.
The growth of eternal life within you changes children into the sons and daughters I AM has called you.
Why do you focus on the one bare spot in the garden, when all around you is the beauty of My hand. The beauty of My heart will cover all. The growth of My kingdom springs forth eternally. Receive the salve to see as I AM.
Remember, to the pure, alas, all things are pure for I AM . The wise see all things through the Ancient of Days. The victorious and courageous see all things through the vision of I AM.
The cords that bind I AM is an everlasting love…… Cut the cords with the world for they are as chains that bind you to the earth. They keep you from flowing free in Holy Spirit…..
Children turn to sons and daughters because they turn to life with the love they have received from I AM. They have stepped from the love they knew on to another higher step to gain more of the life of love…… They know their springs are of I AM. They have ceased to look out but only keep their eyes on high.
Why is it written you are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when I AM is revealed, we shall be like Him for we shall see Him as He is………
Put away childish things and learn to walk with I AM as your all, for I AM. The days are short, so ask I AM for the ears to hear and the Wisdom to follow My ways.
There is no other God, I AM. The fear of God is the beginning of all Wisdom. Know the God who has called you from the beginning of the foundation of the world…… I AM holds the power of all your days.
Be wise. Live Love. Live I AM.
Eat the Food I AM has given you. Be courageous. Do you know the Food I AM has laid before you this day? It is there……Where are you this day? Come and partake of your daily Bread…… The Bread that never fails you….. My Bread will keep you.
If you look back, I AM is there. If you fret over the future, I AM is already there. So rest today in My way, My love, My power. Sit and partake until your peace is fully restored……. My thought for you will be manifested in your days, if you believe and watch. Be as children in faith but wise in the times you walk, alas, you are not alone.
Partake of I AM……..Alas, the knowledge of God and My love will grow toward the full stature of the fullness of Christ. Follow My Words…..Watch the quickening of My Words within you.
Come to Me often….. I AM waits.
Selah!
