Today's Word

The enemy is a bully. Bullies are loud, intimidating, liars, and try to threaten you to control you and keep you down. You have to stand up to the enemy and say, “Your intimidation and threats don’t move me. You have no power over me. I know who I am, and I know whose I am. You may seem big, but God and I are a majority. What He’s destined for my life will come to pass. I will not live worried or let your lies play in my mind.”  

The way you defeat the enemy is by saying what God says about you. When the enemy says, “You’ll never break out and rise higher,” you have to declare, “The path of the righteous gets brighter and brighter, and that’s my path. My greatest victories are still in front of me.” When you hear the lie, “You’ll never break the addiction,” tell the enemy, “I am surrendered to God. In Jesus, I am free, and I will become who I was created to be.” 

 

Prayer for Today

Father, thank You for sending Your champion, Christ Jesus, who is far more powerful than the enemy. Thank You for breaking the enemy’s power and strengthening me to stand up tall. I will walk in the liberty by which Christ has set me free. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

A psalm of David. 1  Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;    the LORD delivers them in times of trouble. 2  The LORD protects and preserves them—    they are counted among the blessed in the land—    he does not give them over to the desire of their foes. 3  The LORD sustains them on their sickbed    and restores them from their bed of illness. 4  I said, “Have mercy on me, LORD;    heal me, for I have sinned against you.” 5  My enemies say of me in malice,    “When will he die and his name perish? ” 6  When one of them comes to see me,    he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander;    then he goes out and spreads it around. Commentary Blessings contested by trouble, sickness and slander 1. Blessings on those who care for the poor Blessings  follow those ‘who have regard for the weak’ (v.1) – those who care, for example, about the poor, th

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing."

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing." : Rivers of pain and persecution will never extinguish this flame. Endless floods will be unable to quench this raging fire that burns within you. Everything will be consumed. It will stop at nothing as you yield everything to this furious fire until it won’t even seem to you like a sacrifice anymore. Song of Songs 8:7 TPT I Hear His Whisper . . . Trust my timing.   The days of completion are mine, not yours. I will complete my work in you in my perfect timing. Even as my ways are perfect, so my timing is perfect. For you have said, "It seems I am standing still and going nowhere." But I say over you, I am unfolding my glory upon you even as you wait on me. I will make it happen and will show you my perfection. What often feels like an endless season of waiting is often a time of preparation. You must believe in things you cannot see. You must trust that even when things seem silent, I am working on your behalf
