Peace Strength and Power

Peace Strength and Power

There is a mighty warrior in all of us
Waiting to be dressed and suited up for battle

The weapons of our warfare are mighty through God
To the pulling down of strongholds 

So why am I fighting the same enemy 
On the same soil time after time

Heaviness decends upon me
It is familiar
It is connected to my past
My childhood

It is fear
It is worthlessness
They are spirits from the dark side
Enemy forces

They are in my camp
Right at the door of my tent
Prowling around 
Waiting for just the right moment of weakness 

THEN

POW!!!

How do I protect and defend what is mine

God tells me 

PEACE

STRENGTH

POWER

All belong to me
It is my choice

Do I believe what He says ~ Do I want to be delivered
Do I want to be set free
And after being set free do I want to remain free

Before David picked up his bow of bronze 
He secured himself in the Lord
God became his stronghold
His refuge
His high tower

Ah 
That's it

I must climb up to the high tower
So I can see the enemy approaching

I must stay ready
Even in times of peace

Keep my armor laid out
Practice putting on each piece
Get skilled in battle

Then I can rest in Him
Then I will have peace

And
Having done all to stand

STAND

Remembering there is strength in numbers
Call out the forces
The intercessors to join me in the battle before me

Stay in His presence
If the enemy can steal my joy 
he will

His tactic is to keep me preoccupied 
I will not listen
I will stay in the presence of Almighty God

The joy of the Lord is my strength
In His presence is fullness of joy

Peter was so full of His presence that when his shadow 
passed over them as he walked down the road
The presence of God healed them

WOW!!!!

I want to be that full of the presence of God


Bless Y'all

Scriptures to encourage us

Romans 16:20
And the God of peace will crush Satan under you feet shortly the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen

2 Corinthians 10:4
For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds

Hebrews 11:32-34
And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets, who by faith conquered kingdoms, performed acts of righteousness, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.

May I propose to you that God is the same yesterday today and forever? (Hebrews 13:8) 

We too can have victory!

A Threatening Storm

Image
  A Threatening Storm What appeared as the greatest storm I'd ever face was upon me! I heard the Dr.s voice saying well there wasn't much clarification in the cat scan about that lump in the back of your throat but there's a lot of notes about what did show up... You have a meningioma tumor on your brain........ I immediately went into shock as I really never thought I would ever hear that word again in my lifetime. You see my former husband had suffered twelve years with a meningioma brain tumor and it finally took him home to heaven. So with uncontrollable tears streaming down my face I really didn't hear much more except he would schedule me for an MRI and an appointment to  see a neurologist. I left his office completely numb and in total disbelief of what he told me. The next day the imaging office called and scheduled my MRI, and on and on it went with tests, appointments, followup appointments, other specialists with more imaging and when w...

Light in the Darkness

Image
I grew up thinking holiness was reserved for priests and nuns. I see the danger of this thinking is that we conform more and more to the world because holiness is unattainable; or not even considered as a goal to be desired or even thought about. However the opposite is true in God's word. "..Be holy, for I am holy" First Peter 1:16. So I have to conclude it is possible. How do we become holy? Let's read what Peter had to say... beginning in   1Peter 1:13-16  "Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope freely upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lust, as in your ignorance; but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, "Be holy for I am holy."  I see the world getting darker and darker and yet the contrast between light (holiness) and darkness (the...

The Miracle and Gift

Image
  The Miracle and Gift Even the very first Christmas was a very busy time... Bethlehem Joseph and Mary Shepherds Angels and more angels Everyone was in the hustle and bustle of registering for the census, not even realizing the most amazing happening on earth was about to take place. Traveling to their destination of Josephs hometown to register for the census, Bethlehem was buzzing with people crowding the city streets. Angels hastened down to earth to a shepherds field  Shepherds hastened off to see Let's hear Luke's account... "An angel stood before them in the middle of the night..." (it seems babies love to come in the middle of the night) first blinding them with light and then more angels came and a   concert began ! Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, toward men.  Although Christmas is still a very busy time, not many seem to want to hear the account of...
