God spoke this so clearly in my heart this morning, and I am sure that I'm not the only one that needs encouragement to persevere when the pressure is on. I felt I should share it, as it was such a precious gift to me. Read and be encouraged to fight for your miracle!
The control issue in another does not negate my validity or make me less
significant. My Father's banner over me is love and he is the one whose
seal of approval validates my life and purpose. (Song of Solomon 2:4)
No one else has the ability to make me feel inferior, UNLESS I allow
them to. Today, I choose to believe ONLY the truth and rise above the
oppression of the enemy as it comes in like a flood. MY GOD will raise
up a standard against them. (Isa. 59:19) He will take the "offense" on
my behalf and strike the first blow into the enemy's ranks. He throws
down the gauntlet in challenge to an enemy that comes ill-equipped to a
battle against, not me, but the Most High God. The victory is the
Lord's, and because I am His, it is mine also. HE will fight for my
cause, as he brings glorious victory. (Deut. 20:6) And as for me...I
will STAND my ground; I will dig my heels hard into the power of his
word, and I will wait on the victory in His time. (Eph. 6:13) The thing I
MUST do is refuse to give up, because I know full well the answer to my
heart's cry. His promises are "yes" and "amen" when I walk in his
victory. (2 Cor. 1:20) May he stir up a righteous indignation against
the enemy's schemes to steal that which is mine. (Jn. 10:10)
Devil, you can't have it. I know who I am, and I know WHOSE I am. What
was promised to me is yours no longer. You no longer have authority to
place fear and doubt in a heart that is sure of its promises. I am
confident of this: I will see the goodness of The Lord in the land of
the living. (Ps. 27:13)
May The Lord make my roots run deep in his word and in the power of his
majesty. Make me verdant and strong. May my life arise as a testament of
your faithfulness, and may you be sole recipient of all glory that is
due you.
This is my proclamation of your love and faithfulness for this day.
