King James Version

Psalms 62:6    

6. He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.

King James Version

Psalms 66:9    

9. Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

King James Version

Psalms 121:3   

3. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

King James Version

Isaiah 59:19

19. So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.

God told me the closer we get to Him the more chaotic Satan will become. He will do everything to try to put you in his traps, but it won’t prosper. He will send floods to drown you and your faith, but He promised that He will pray for us so our feet will not be moved. Some Christians stop when they get too close to God because they can’t handle the debris from Satan and his imps, but the mature Christians are able to resist him, and he will flee. They are able to put on the full armor, and cut Satan from head to toe! Satan will play on the weak, but the ones who are mature he stays away from.

In closing,

God told me to tell you if you are persecuted for righteous sake, Greater is your reward. When Satan sends floods, it won’t harm you nor will it affect you or move you. We have to know that God has our back, and we have to know who He is in our life. He said in His word in Isaiah 43”1-2; “Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you when you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. “When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.” Fear from Satan will try to come upon you when floods test and or trials come. Don’t let fear poison your faith. It should increase and not decrease. Remember what Jesus told Peter, “Satan’s desire is to sift you as wheat, but I have prayed for you!” We shouldn’t lose faith in God because that is what Satan and his imp wants us to do. Maintain your peace, and put your foot in Satan and his imp’s neck, and let them know with authority, “No weapon formed against me shall never ever prosper in Jesus name!”

My encouragement to you is…….

Keep the faith, trouble don’t last always, and if and when it comes know you are very close to God that is why the enemy hates so much. But don’t focus on his ignorance focus on God. Let Him fight your battles. The floods that come will try to disturb your spirit, but God will block the debris of Satan’s floods, and rebuke Him. The little floods, trials and test will seem big, and the big tests, storms, floods will seem too intense, but remember Satan don’t have no new tricks, it just enhances the old ideas. Test, trials, storms, and floods are temporary; it is how we react to them that make them last longer. Satan can act a donkey as much as he wants, but you have self control, and do not get caught up. Don’t get mad if Satan tries to throw fiery dots at you, keep on your full armor and it won’t touch you. Keep your eyess focus on Jesus, and know everyday with Him is beautiful, and everyday living and walking this Christian walk is always going to be awesome, so have no regrets because of tests, trials, storm and floods. They only come to make you stronger, better and wiser so when Satan comes again you can rebuke Him before he even get started because God righteous will never feel, see or hear defeat, but only victory! Amen

Have A Awesome Week!

King James Version

Philippians 3:13-14

13. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

14. I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Paul said I am tired of people taking what’s mine. I am tired of being the same way year after year. My plans are to reach forward to those things which are ahead. If I stop now I will never reach my peak in God. God is pushing me to press to a higher level in Him, so I can’t lose my focus. He will remove every leader around me, friend, coworker, family member, and or church member who doesn’t mean me any good. He is telling me, He will handle it, if I continue to press forward and not move backwards. I have set new goals for me to get even closer to Him, and if I have to let everyone and everything go. Then that’s what I will have to do because my goal is Christ himself, and there is a crown waiting for me if I faint not. I will experience His power when I am weak if I press, so this year pressing is always going to be the first and foremost thing on my mind. I can’t let people pull me back; I have let it happen too many times! If I let it happen again I will die, and I will never get what He has promised for me, so I got to press.

In closing,

Paul was trying to get the Philippians to pursue God, leave everything else that will hinder their focus. He told them to intimate me, for heavens sake. If your friend, church member, family member and or co worker can’t accept the fact that God is in control of your life, then let them go.  He told them trust God because sometimes the road gets lonely, but when you trust God, He will comfort you. God knows the plans for you, plans for you to prosper. This is the year to get more mature in God. Don’t stay the same way you were last year. He told them learn how to be content in whatever circumstances you are in. Learn to depend on God in everything. When we choose to stay on the same level, we are choosing to limit God. So many people limit God, and never get to the level they want to be. There never expect go do greater, and above the normal that they normally do. He told them if you don’t remember anything else; remember this is a new year. Forget those thing that are in the pass that poisoned you, put it under your feet. All I want you to do in this year is to press and pray like never before. Remember these words and you will make it, you will prosper, and whatever you put your hands, heart, and mind to do you will do it. But you got to trust God and have faith that He is a rewarded, and a comforter, in every circumstance. He told them promise me this year you will do better, and if I have to keep telling you over and over again until you get tired hearing it, that will have to be so, because it will let me know you know exactly what I am talking about, it is clicking! He also told them I want you all to know Christ personally like I have gotten to know Him. He will make you and your life beautiful.

My encouragement to you is……

If you have been the same way in God year after year, now is the time for change. Change your old habits, and create new positive ones. Don’t let Gods blessing collect dust in heaven. He is waiting to bless you, you just got to grab and eat what He gives. It will get hard because any higher level you press towards is going to come with a struggle, but don’t let it change your focus. Let it push you to the next level in Him. Satan is going to hate, and put all his hater ration on it, but you got to press no matter what. People are going to drop off in this process, and it will hurt a little bit, well a lot, the reason why is, you have gotten too attached, let it go. Let the bitterness make you better, and the pain and poison, press you to change. Change your surrounding it’s time to change. God is not going to put no more on you than you can bear. If everything starts dropping off then leave it. If it was for you, it will be for you. Life is a lesson learned, and going higher in God is a change and a learning experience, knowing you got to take the bitter with the sweet. You are going to be hated for no reason. misunderstood, judged and talked about because you are too holy, but know this, when that crown, bling in their face, they won’t be hating any longer, they won’t help but to give you your props because they will see from God’s glory, and know from your crown, that no matter what they did, you still pressed. So promise me this year you will press no matter what the circumstances, and no matter the situation?

Are You Ready To Press?

Me Too!!!

Have An Incredible Year?

King James Version

Philippians 3:13-14

13. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14. I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Don’t let nothing change your focus this year, everything you have been through in the past let it go, forgive, forget and lay it all at the alter. All of the depression, stress, mess, confusion, and no hopes should shift from the negative to the positive as a testimony right now because God said He is going to do a new thing, that will spring forth, and overflow. Every hurt, every pain, every misunderstanding, and every disappointment, let it go. Give it all to God.

In closing,

If you were misunderstood last year; let it go. If you were done wrong to, let it go. If you were wounded let it go, and let God heal your pain. God has put in my spirit to press this year. Press like never before. Grab everything He sends from heaven. Eat everything he puts into your spirit. He said He is doing a new thing. Seek Him with all your might don't let your thirst dry out, and don't let your hunger cease. Press and go to higher heights and deeper depths in Him. Set goals in Him; like what you want to accomplish in Him, He said He will do it. Don’t let Satan’s ignorance change your focus because he is still going to bring negative things and negative circumstances. We just got to put on the full armor of God to rebuke every fiery dot that he is going to send. When we stay drunk in God’s presence we won’t have time to lose focus and let his ignorance change our focus. Don’t let nothing distract you, press like never before, and press through all the pressures that life will bring, and know that in your pressing their is a blessing in store if you faint not. Lastly, stand firm and let nothing move you this year. Amen

Are You Ready To Press?

The Amplified Bible

 John 14:27

27. Peace I leave with you; My {own} peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives, do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. {Stop allowing yourselves, to be fearful and intimated and cowardly and unsettled.}

The Amplified Bible

Proverb 25:28

28. He who has no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down without walls.

New International Version

Proverb 25:28

28. like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control.

This scripture here John 14:27 is when Jesus was comforting the disciples to girdle their loins, “prepare their selves,” and don’t let people rub them the wrong way, as well as now, giving us the revelation to do the same. He told them to not let them steal what is theirs, what you have gained, and “Your self-control”. Have you ever noticed how you are well on your way, at peace, happy and all of a sudden arrows are thrown at you from out of no where, for no reason at all. To kill your spirit meaning, to allow yourself to lack self control from being caught off guard, to where you are moved and affected by the arrows that were thrown at you. I know, it happens, but don’t be moved by daily throw back, don’t be troubled and be afraid. He told them, I will not be with you in flesh always, but I will always be with you in spirit, when I leave you, I will send you a comforter that will help you to prepare yourself and show you how to girdle your loins when arrows are thrown at you. He will show you how to defeat opposition and persecution. He told them always transform yourself and don’t let things that the world sends trouble you, agitate, disturb, intimidate and unsettle you. You change your atmosphere by maintaining you self control.

In closing,

In the amplified bible says stop allowing people as well as yourselves or just anything (opening the door to let them) irritate, distract, intimidate, trouble and disturb your spirit. Jesus was giving revelation to them that the minute we allow ourselves to become this way we are opening our hearts to trouble and we will then become moved by what people do to us. We can’t be moved by what people say, do and think about us, “Change us”. We should continue to be self controlled and maintain it regardless.

Be blessed

Have A Self-Controlled Day!

In this walk we can't let anything move us. We have to show Satan we have the authority of Christ and He lives in us, and let him know since He lives in us we also live with Him.

New Living Translation

Daniel 3:28-30

28. Then Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego!. He sent his angel to rescue his servants who trusted in him They defied the king’s command and were willing to die rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.

29. Therefore, I make this decree: If any people, whatever their race or nation or language, speak a word against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, they will be torn limb from limb, and their houses will be turned into heaps of rubble. There is no other god who can rescue like this!”

30. Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego to even higher positions in the province of Babylon.

When you are faithful in serving God no matter how hot it gets in trials, test and or storms, people will see the glory of God on you that it will indeed bless them because of your trust in Him. If we give up while being in the fire it will not accomplish anything but defeat. Satan doesn’t want us to stand in fire, he wants us to faint. In order to get to the next level you have to pass the test. Yea, it may be sometimes hard to pass tests that is too intense, but when you are prayed up and suited for the battle you will win and pass every time. If Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego would have lost their faith in God they would have fainted in the fire, and died. Do you forget who God is when you are in and or facing the fire? Do your faith and or trust in God increase or does it decrease? Do you believe He got your back in fire, trials, floods, deserts, and or storms? If you don’t know how to answer this question, and it takes you awhile to answer it, then what do you believe? You have to trust God, and believe what scripture says in Isaiah 43”1-2; “Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you when you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. “When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.” A lot of people want His glory, but they don’t want to go through whatever it takes in order to soak in it. You can wipe your sweat with me and say, “Lord thank you for not letting me faint in the fire.” See, You have to know who God is because when fires comes to try to shake your faith you have to know you are coming out as nothing, but pure gold.

In closing,

The more we trust God the closer we can get to Him. When we are in the fire we can’t let our faith and trust shake. There are going to be certain circumstances that will come with fire, and our flesh will not want to stand in it, but the fire is what going to perfect you, and take you to the next level in God. Being in the fire is not as hard as it would be if you are not prayed up. God is with us in the fire no matter what. Just think when we are in the fire He removes all the negative and impurities that is latching to us that would hinder our walk with Him. If Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego didn’t stand in the fire they would have not experience the glory and power of God. When God is getting ready to take us to the next level, don’t think for any chance Satan is going to rejoice and be happy with you, no! He is going to be more the envious along with hate and more jealousy because of this next level because he never got there. If you are in the fire now or are just coming out of it, thank God because you were in it and or thank God that He brought you out. Some Christians die in the fire because it becomes too intense for them! If Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego would have given up in the fire they would have not been elevated to the next level, but because they didn’t faint King Nebuchadnezzar gave them even higher positions because of the incredible faith and trust they had in their God. If you believing God to take you to the next level in Him don’t think by chance you are going to escape the fire. Satan is envious of your next level experience. So in order to defeat him you got to stay prayed up and amour up because wanting and needing this next level in God may kill you or make you stronger. Don’t get caught sleeping in the fire. Stay prayed up because staying prayed up is the only thing that will keep you while being in the fire. Most of all keep your mind right because in order to stand in the fire you got to have God’s peace because His peace is the only thing will sustain and keep you. if you have passed the test then congrats, now you are ready for the next level, but if you are still in the fire, don’t give up, hold on you are closer than you think, you need this next level so don’t faint.

Are You Ready To Be Elevated To The Next Level In God?

Me Too!!!

Have An Incredible Day!

The Message Bible
John 13:8-9
8. Peter persisted, "You're not going to wash my feet—ever!" Jesus said, "If I don't wash you, you can't be part of what I'm doing."
9. "Master!" said Peter. "Not only my feet, then. Wash my hands! Wash my head!"

In order for us to enter into the kingdom of God, He has to wash us. Also Jesus said, we have to walk in holiness, righteousness, and teach others to continue and habitly live a life pleasing to Him. There are going to be times in our life when Satan will send temptations and persecution, saying things in your ear like, "You are being too holy, too righteous and you pray too much. Don't listen to Him that is the way Jesus wants us to live. This walk is not going to be easy, but with Jesus by our side we can and will conquer anything. We are able to conquer and rebuke Satan, walk in His righteousness and be holy, pray how long, and how many times we want a day because we walk with him and He is by our side. We have to please God, not man.

In closing,
When you are washed by God you are able to handle temptations, handle haters, handle stress, handle pressure, but if you are not washed by God, then pressure, stress, temptations, and haters will shake you and move you and your faith in God. If you haven't been washed by God then now is the time to let Him wash you, but if you have been already washed by God then congrats, continue, and show others how to be holy, be righteous, be a warrior, be a solider and disciple of Christ in order for His souls to be saved and get in to the kingdom. Amen; Just like Judas, he will come, but remember what Jesus said, don’t let it stop you. If you have people around you who don’t want to live holy, walk in righteous, and pray like you, always hating instead of congratulating, let the go, because greater is He that is in thee then He is in the world, and Satan can’t stop what God got. Don’t get discouraged; know your reward is with God in heaven not with man, and know that God give us power to tread upon serpents, scorpions and all power of the enemy and believe that nothing shall be any mean harm you because God has wash you, and you are lead by Jehovah, you heard me!

King James Version

Matthew 17:21

21. Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Disgusted with Satan and his imps? This is exactly how Jesus felt. The disciples were amazed and confused on how the demons obey Jesus rather then them. They ask Lord, Why could not we cast him out? Jesus told them it only comes out through fasting and praying. In order to rebuke Satan and his imps you got to use what tools God gave you. We can pray all day long, but without fasting and praying, Satan will only laugh because he will send them back double to do more damage than before. I have learned that a demon (imp) of Satan won’t budge without strong sacrifice, fasting and praying. In order to get anything it takes a dose of sacrifice. This seemed impossible to the disciples, but it was nothing to Jesus. Things will seem hard to us when we are not prayed up because only fasting and sacrificing in this walk with Christ will get you your breakthrough. A lot of Christians don’t want to pray, fast and sacrifice. If you are tired of not getting your breakthrough then fast, if you are tired of things not being effective in your life pray, and if you are tired of taking crap from Satan and his imps then sacrifice.

In closing,

In order to be a might warrior it takes praying, fasting and sacrificing. In order to take out the enemy you have to be a warrior in God. As well as dying to the flesh daily is true effectiveness in order to step in Satan’s kingdom to pull souls out of his hand. In order to get rid of storms, famines test and or trials we got to use our tools. Jesus went in the wilderness fasting and praying for 40 days and for 40 nights, in Matthew 4. Then the Holy Spirit led Him in Luke 4 chapter. When we are fighting on the battle field we should always wear the full armor of God, by staying suited up at all times because Satan attacks at all times. He never neither sleeps nor slumbers when it comes to attacking the saints of God. Satan is not going let you get your breakthrough easily; he is going to fight you for it! The disciples didn’t fully under stand what Jesus said until He left them and went to heaven. That was when the full and real walk begun. They had to fast, pray and sacrifice for the kingdom of God.  Once again, in order for us to be effective (powerful) we got to use the tools God gave us.  When we fast, pray and sacrifice we are able to stand firm, and nothing will move us.  In order to get better and effective results we got to pray, fast and sacrifice fully without wavering.  We can’t rebuke Satan if he is already in us, so we got to repent and rebuke ourselves first in order to rebuke Satan. Another important thing you cannot rebuke Satan or his imps without being prayed up. The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous avails much. If you read throughout Matthew, Mark, and Luke, the demons knew who Jesus was they were no stranger to Him. Don’t come no any kind of way rebuking Satan, you got to come correct or else. Read this story; Acts 19:13-17; some itinerant Jewish exorcists who happened to be in town at the time tried their hand at what they assumed to be Paul's "game." They pronounced the name of the Master Jesus over victims of evil spirits, saying, "I command you by the Jesus preached by Paul!" The seven sons of a certain Sceva, a Jewish high priest, were trying to do this on a man when the evil spirit talked back: "I know Jesus and I've heard of Paul, but who are you?" Then the possessed man went berserk—jumped the exorcists, beat them up, and tore off their clothes. Naked and bloody, they got away as best they could. It was soon news all over Ephesus among both Jews and Greeks. The realization spread that God was in and behind this.You see now after reading this story, you got to be ready with the full armor, already prayed up and fasting. You got to come correct. Satan will always flee, and never return when you sacrifice your flesh and pray just to please God, which is denying self. If you don’t know how to fast or how to begin sacrificing, ask the Holy Spirit. He will come into your heart and teach you how to be a strong warrior for God. Amen

Are you Ready To Use The Tools God Gave Us, And Stay Ahead Of The Game?

Me Too!!!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

Thought;

Nothing but the righteous shall be able to rebuke and cast out Satan.

King James Version

Hebrew 11:6    

6. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

King James Version

Psalms 16:11   

11. Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Do you get excited about God’s word, knowing He is going to give you a word to bless your day? I know I do! Each morning while walking through out the house I am in His presence, I am praying for myself, my family, for my friends, and other people who He lays on my heart to pray for. I also pray that whatever spirit that is not of Him that is on me and or on the people who He is allowing me to pray for. I cast out, rebuke, pray that the void is filled with the Holy Ghost in His name. Most of all I enjoy being in His presence. I love waking up each morning embracing His presence because in His presence there is fullness of Joy. Just to think of His presence is joy alone. I so want to please Him, do you? Scripture says, “He rewards them who diligently seek Him” diligently means constant in effort to accomplish something; “attentive and persistent” in doing anything. Are you a diligent seeker? Just to soak in His presence is amazing. It is love, joy, peace, and more love in His presence. The enemy may be pressing on you having you thinking you are seeking God, and soaking in His presence too much. No, never that, don’t stop, you are too close to God that is why he don’t want you to get too close. He is jealous, he knows in His presence there is fullness of joy because he has no joy!

In closing,

When we are persistent to get to the throne room in Heaven it pleases God. Do you no know it pleases Him to see us hungry for His presence? When we are very attentive to Him, He loves it. When He sees our faithfulness to want to please Him, and want to soak in His presence, He tells us what He is about to do in our lives, in others lives, and so on and so forth. I ask you again, do you want to please Him? Me too! There are rewards when soaking in His presence. God will show you your store houses in heaven when you soak in His presence. When Jesus was down here on earth, He constantly sought His father. To soak in His presence, is to be close to Him. When you are in His presence you feel comfort. Comfort means to soothe, console, or reassure; bring cheer to: 2. a condition or feeling of pleasurable ease, well-being, and contentment, 3. a feeling of freedom from worry or disappointment, 4.Gives moral or emotional strength. 4. A pleasant condition of being physically or mentally relaxed, happy, warm etc. God gives us all of this when we need Him, and when we soak in His presence. David stayed in His presence that’s why he was able to defeat his enemies, and get whatever he wanted from God. David was after God’s own heart. David relationship was so strong with God that he was never in lack. David didn’t soak in His presence just to get blessing from Him, he soaked in His presence because he loved Him, and because of whom He is. You can’t soak in His presence with sin, and flesh, only your spirit and soul has to be pure, and pleasing in His sight. If you don’t know how to enter into His presence, take the sin off, die to the flesh, then you will be able to soak in His presence. David said, “At thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore (happiness, joy, comfort, contentment, and peace).” David was drunk every time while being in His presence. When he was in His presence, he was in, reverence, worship, awe, veneration and thankful while being in His presence. David stayed in His presence because he love the feeling he felt when he was in his presence. Do you love the way you feel when you are in His presence? David life was a life of divine worship to God and he had a divine hunger for His presence. Do you want a divine hunger for His presence with an overpowering exhilaration and or an excitement of the mind or emotions?  I do too!

Are You Drunk In His Presence?

Me Too!!!

Have A Month Of Intoxication!
