The enemy wants to exaggerate your weakness and make you forget I take the foolish things of the world to confound the wise…to confound even your own wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:27). Yes, the enemy prefers for you to concentrate on your own self and what you consider to be your lack…to focus on your failures…your mistakes; not your successes. You have succeeded more than you have failed and must learn to see the glass half full and not half empty.

Don’t stop breathing Me in just because you are tired or weary…just because you have been unfaithful or unbelieving…just because of disappointment or the betrayal and rejection of men.

Have a child like heart and do not let them enemy come and destroy love, trust, intimacy and innocence ever again (Mark 10:13-15). I make claim to your heart and take back all and (I mean all) stolen from it.

What is adverse possession? An example of adverse possession would be the following. Suppose a neighbor built his fence a few feet inward on your property. You know they have done so; but, choose not to dispute the placement of their fence. You could lose possession of that part of your land because you did not step up to reclaim the land rightfully yours. The enemy does the same. He uses fear and a myriad of other tactics to set up fences on the land, the hopes and dreams I have given you.

In the deep recesses of your soul, My Word has left an indelible mark. I contain the stamp of those promises. You savor and relish them in the silence of your heart. Always hoping, waiting, anticipating and believing, you are My compassionate, faithful one.

Beloved, worship creates an open portal between heaven and earth?between your heart and Mine. As you tremble at My word, the earth shakes. And like a mighty underground spring…

Thoughts allowed to run rampant and unchecked affect your, mind, your will and your emotions, causing actions harmful in any given situation. Take them captive (2 Corinthians 10:5). The more a negative process is followed, the less you trust Me, relying on your own abilities and intuitions. This never works for the good.

Ask yourself, “What am I most afraid of?” When you get the answer you will find a place where love is not perfected. Be rooted, grounded and perfected in love. And remember I do not give stones when My children ask for bread. Throw out the old bread and receive fresh bread straight from the manna oven of My heart

The best way to walk in hope and confidence in who you are in Me is to remember My mercies are new every morning or should I say every moment. I live in your present. Do not see Me as someone who has come or will come but is come. Come live in the present with Me and be amazed for I am truly the one and only. I am the “Now God.”

Therefore, seize the day and the beauty it holds (Hebrews 10:23). Cling to and hold fast the Word of Truth you have received with joy and confidence. Acknowledge with your voice and shout from mountaintops of insurmountable odds that I who promised am reliable and faithful to My Word…that I who established the earth from its foundations and framed it with My words am capable, willing and ready to establish your life as I proclaimed it to be before the worlds were formed.
