Who’s my God? Is it satan, fear and lies? Or is it the God Who parted the Red Sea and removed Pharaoh and his entire army?
We must learn to stand and to count on seeing the glory of our God.
Satan wants to be your god. He wants you to serve fear. And then, he wants you to infect others with it so that he can steal, kill, and destroy more and more of us.
We’re not through. This (whatever the enemy is shooting at you about) isn’t the end. We’re going through following our courageous and almighty God…He’s always, always, always working for our good.
While in Oregon, a job was coming to an end for me. It had seemed so promising, but things began to not work out. One of the workers, a Christian brother, told me if this job didn’t work out for me, I was not going to be able to find another one. His words brought tons of fear and anxiety down on me. I didn’t know what to do, BUT God knew I would go on to what He had in store for me.
Whatever fear you’re experiencing right now, I’m telling you, this is not the end. In fact, this is just the beginning as far as God’s concerned. When fear begins to pin you in like it’s been doing to me the last several days, remember that fear is just God getting you ready for something greater. It’s merely a sign that God is working in your life to give you a breakthrough. Times of refreshing are right at the door, my friend. Believe it.
Stand in your spirit and believe Romans 8:28. Run the enemy through with it and praise God for the victory that’s on the way.
Some of you may need to know today that the enemy uses fear to make us faint-hearted, dismayed and to feel like giving up. BUT, all the enemy has is lies to bring his fear on us. Remember, fear is a liar. God’s truth opens up new avenues and breaks through fear to show us His salvation and all He has for us in the future. I encourage you to read Psalm 91 (included below) out loud three times today to break the attack of fear on your life. God has courage and bright days ahead for you, my friend.
The Battle Belongs To The Lord
By Jamie Owens-Collins
In heavenly armour we’ll enter the land
The battle belongs to the Lord
No weapon that’s fashioned against us shall stand
The battle belongs to the Lord
We sing glory and honor
Power and strength to the Lord
(repeat)
The power of darkness comes in like a flood
The battle belongs to the Lord
He’s raised up a standard, the power of His blood
The battle belongs to the Lord
We sing glory and honor
Power in strength to the lord
(repeat)
When your enemy presses in hard do not fear
The battle belongs to the Lord
Take courage my friend, your redemption is near
The battle belongs to the Lord
The battle belongs to the lord
Battle belongs to the lord…
“I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust.”
Make God your refuge and fortress by believing Romans 8:28 and that God, as your Father, has so many wonderful things in store for you today and into the future. Believe it!
So come on – Let’s go!
God bless,
Mark
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
Psalm 91
