You may look at what you’re up against today and feel that you don’t have the strength, the stamina, the endurance, the fortitude to keep fighting. I told you, you have access to exceptional power in Christ Jesus. Yes, the challenges are there; maybe it’s cancer, financial crisis, imbalance, an addiction, or a situation in your family. No, get ready. God is not going to let you stay feeling overwhelmed. Right now, He is breathing unique strength into you. When…
Elijah’s outrun of a chariot provides an essential element of what you can do when you trust God and operate within His Strength: “Then the LORD gave special strength to Elijah. He tucked his cloak into his belt and ran ahead of Ahab’s chariot all the way to the entrance of Jezreel.” (1 Kings 18:46, NLT). The prophet Elijah had just defeated the 450 prophets of Baal who supported King Ahab, and no doubt he was exhausted. Yet it says…
*1.* “This God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.” *2* “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” *3* “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your…

What comes to mind when you read this Scripture, and I quote: “Then he said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.” (Exodus 3:6, NIV)? What? Yes, the Scripture talks about the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Do you not have an issue here? I can understand how He is the God of Abraham, the father of our faith. I…
*1.* “For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.” *2* “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” *3* “And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” *4* “For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as…
Here it is, “If the Son, therefore, makes you free, ye shall be free indeed.” (John 8:36). Free indeed! All the world’s counsel won’t set you free from sin. In fact, people may call you “an addict”. Sin is addictive. But Jesus came to set us free, to redeem us from the slave market of sin, and that’s what He’ll do for all who come to Him. Don’t give up, Friend.
Hungry for God’s Word is central evidence that the veil comes off when Christ Jesus comes into one’s life. Yes, how can you tell the saved from the lost? The saved are hungry for God’s Word and His Righteousness. Such a level of hungry for God’s Word is the seventh evidence of genuine faith. It’s the Spirit of God within believers in Christ Jesus that enables us to understand the things of God. I repeat it, the veil comes off…
*1.* “Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion; put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for there shall no more come into you the uncircumcised and the unclean. Shake yourself from the dust and arise; be seated, O Jerusalem; loose the bonds from your neck, O captive daughter of Zion. For thus says the Lord: “You were sold for nothing, and you shall be redeemed without money.” For thus says the Lord God: “My people went…
Yes, things may be coming against you, but know this: God didn’t create you to be overcome; He made you an overcomer. Down is not your fortune, and defeat is not how your story ends. If you’re going to come out of that challenge, you have to stop talking about failure and defeat. Be lifted to enjoy God’s goodness. Quit giving loss the power to keep you down. When you declare, “I will arise,” forces of darkness tremble and angels…
