When you believe in your heart and confess Christ as Savior, nothing can separate you from God. No sin can control you. No sickness can have authority over your life. God Himself lives in you!
You can actually enjoy the process of going through tough moments by looking for the good in them. The things you can change, by all means change, but the things you cannot change should not have the right to dominate your life!
The Spirit of God within us inspires us with His thoughts, which equips us to face all of the evils of darkness with the same calmness, confidence, and presence of mind that Jesus demonstrated.
I have walked the ‘be strong and of good courage’ path for many years with nothing more than the Word of GOD in my heart, a positive confession in my mouth, and a small band of committed partners. I have seen His miracles and I KNOW that GOD will never fail us! He is true to HIS Word!
Ephesians 1:6 says that we are seated together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. That’s not a future promise, it’s a present reality that will help you greatly as you navigate the tribulations on this earth. Our position in Christ is secure, and as we look at ourselves from His perspective we will rise above the mountains and the enemies before us!
You might have been born into a poor family, with a poor education and poor friends living in a poor neighborhood—but you do NOT have to stay there! There is no one limiting you. You are not a prisoner of your past, your neighborhood, your lack of education or what others are telling you. When Christ comes to live in you there is a new power in operation!
Jesus is not only with the Christian but He is IN the Christian—yet many are full of fears and worries, gloom and doom, waiting for a bail out by something “bigger and better.” It’s only when you know Who is WITH you and IN you that you will rise to new levels of confidence!
This is Christianity’s finest hour! There will be no better time than this to awaken the Body of Christ and demonstrate to the spiritual seekers that the Jesus we speak of is not another dead prophet, but a resurrected Lord who is calling out to them to give them life while there is still time!
When I have a time of need, I march boldly into the throne room of God to obtain what I need. I turn the circumstances over to Him and say: “Father, no matter how I feel or how I look, no matter if sickness is knocking on my door, I know sickness is NOT the truth and will therefore not be my reality. I’m giving it to You, I thank You, and am here to boldly acknowledge and receive the healing You provided for me through what Your Son has done for me!”
Do you see that when Jesus died on the cross He took all your sins and all your sicknesses? The Lord Jesus delivered you from the devil’s captivity and gave you freedom—freedom from any kind of bondage, sickness or disease!
