Jeremiah 29:11-13 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart."

We are creating memories every moment. The…

Ephesians, 3:16 in the Amplified reads, "May He grant you out of the rich treasury of His Glory to be strengthen and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the Holy Spirit {Himself indwelling your innermost being and personality]"

We can live in the Fresh Anointing that brings strength to strength living in these times! The greater the challenges that arise to confront us The greater…

We must discover the pathway to abiding peace and true tranquility! If we look out at the chaos and confusion, the death and destruction, we can be overwhelmed. However, if we will lift our vision higher and look up to focus our attention on Christ the King, our outlook will vastly change (see Isaiah 26:3).

Christ Jesus warns us that a time is coming when many will fall prey to fear and panic because of the…

In Philippians 3:5-10, Paul gives expression to the fact that there is much that can be apprehended and experienced beyond that which he had previously known.

"That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable to His death...not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may…

James 1:16-18 reminds us that the Father of heavenly lights gives only good and perfect gifts and that He is the God of truth:

"Don't be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters. Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first…

"Then war broke out in Heaven; Michael and his angels went forth to battle with the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought. But they were defeated, and there was no room found for them in Heaven any longer" (Revelation 12:7-8 AMP).

Notice the phrase, "there was no room...for them in Heaven" -- the war against principalities involves displacement -- Christ…

God has a life for you that has been birthed right out of the atmosphere of Heaven. It holds your identity and PURPOSE and is the key to walking in the same measure that Jesus walked in. It's not about being special or called out more than anyone else. It's a matter of how you utilize your identity and the power of the Gospel.

Do we know who we are?…

"In the light of the king's face is life, and his favor is like a cloud of the latter rain." - Proverbs 16:15

May we reflect His light – the light that releases the manifold wisdom of God through our life!

A CLOUD OF FAVOR

Ephesians 3:12 - "In…

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." - Hebrews 11:1

The presence of the Holy Spirit teaches our spiritual eyes of faith to see this way into the invisible. God grants us visionary access to walk into a reality that is superior to the natural realm where we exist most of the time.

Once we gain God's…

Christ not only came to set captives free, He came to train and empower the recently freed to be warriors. How can we, imperfect Christians, walk triumphantly? The Bible says we overcome "because of the Blood of the Lamb and because of the word of [our] testimony, and [we do] not love [our lives] even when faced with death" (Revelation 12:11).

Many Christians are awakened spiritually, but they do not…

John 10:27 - "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."

Isaiah 50:4 - "He awakens Me morning by morning, He awakens My ear to hear as the learned."

Hebrews 5:11 - "Concerning this we have much to say which is hard to explain, since you have become dull in your…

Matthew 3:7 - But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadduccees come to his baptism, he said unto them, "O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?"

WHAT THE PHARISEES MOST FEARED WAS THAT JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS NOT PROCLAIMING ANY VALUE IN THEIR ROLES; IN ESSENCE, JOHN'S MESSAGE DETHRONED ANY REAL AUTHORITY TO BE HAD IN RELIGIOUS IDENTITIES.…

No one wants to make another trip through the wilderness. This is not a time to walk in circles. We are to walk with a true goal, aim, and purpose, making the most of each occasion, because we know the time is short (see Ephesians 5:14-17). Paul, the apostle, instructs us to walk purposefully toward one true goal -- God's…
