Have you been praying about something for a long time?

I want to encourage you today to keep asking. Do not give up on the promises of God for your life! Pray until you get a breakthrough! Declare God’s word over your circumstances! Praise your way into victory!

I was reading the story of Elisha and the Shunammite woman in 2 Kings 4:8-37. In the story the Shunammite woman was barren but Elisha prophesied she would have a son. When her son was a child, he suddenly became sick and died. Instead of just accepting this tragedy, the Shunammite woman laid her son on Elisha’s bed and ran to find Elisha. On her way there when anyone asked ‘Is it well with you?’ she replied ‘It is well’.  She told Elisha that she would not leave him. I believe she would not take no for an answer. She was not going to accept this outcome as the final word on her promise; her son.

Just like the Shunammite woman, you may feel like your promise has died or that it has taken so long to come that you feel like giving up. Well, I want to encourage you today to contend for the promise! Do not take less than what God has promised you!

Isaiah 40:31 “But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.”

Jesus said in Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you .

Matthew 7:8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

I found it interesting that the Shunammite woman did not tell people her son had died. I believe that our words have power, and it is important to declare God’s word over our situation and not the enemy’s word. It is so easy to say negative things when we feel disappointed or feel that our promise is delayed or even hopeless, but determine today to only declare the word of God over your situation.

Psalm 149:6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hand.

I encourage you to praise and worship God. There is power and breakthrough in praise and worship!

When you get into the presence of God, you are changed. Your focus is on Jesus. You get a new perspective.

Praise is a weapon! It is powerful! Begin to worship and praise God until you get into His presence. He will refresh you and strengthen you in His presence.

The Shunammite woman received her son healed and whole. He was raised from the dead! I believe that God is restoring your hope and expectation as you read this. Do not give up! Keep on asking, keep on seeking, keep on knocking! Your promise is coming! Keep contending for your promise!

 

 

 

I want to encourage you today with this word from the Lord. It’s  time for the people of God to take their place of authority.  The time is now! We are seated with Jesus in heavenly places.

Ephesians 2:6 For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.

We are victorious through His blood and the word of our testimony!

Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony; and they loved not their life even unto death.

Say yes to what God is calling you to do.

For such a time as this I have called you out to be a voice for me. Speak for me. Go for me. I go before you. It’s already done in the spirit!

Walk in my love and declare it! I will show you great and mighty things that you have not known before.

It’s time to step out.   The harvest is ripe! The time is now! I’m calling you out to pray. Stand on the wall and contend for my presence. Watch what I do in response.

Expect great and mighty wonders! Souls, miracles, healing, restoration, deliverance – it’s coming! Rise up! Step out! Speak my words!

I will give you the land. Everywhere you step will be yours. Take the land!

Deuteronomy 1:8
See, I have given you this land. Go in and take possession of the land the LORD swore he would give to your fathers–to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob–and to their descendants after them.”

Go boldly in JESUS name!

God has given all of us dreams.  Sometimes it seems like a long time that we are waiting to see dreams fulfilled. Remember that we have to do our part in seeing these dreams take place.

I want to encourage you today to do whatever God is asking you to do.

Take a step of faith! Those steps are moving you into the dream God has given you. Move with the voice of the Holy Spirit. Ask Him what steps you need to take today. Write them down. Take action!

Habakkuk 2:2 – And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make [it] plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.

Habakkuk 2:3 – For the vision [is] yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

I want to encourage with this prophetic word I received from the Lord. I believe it is for many people who have been praying and moving with the Lord.

Now is the time!

 I am launching you – propelling you forward. Fast! You will be surprised by the way I do this. Trust me;  I will guide you. You are precious to me . I will not fail you.

I am working now. Keep stepping. Keep praying . Keep worshiping. Things are about to shift. They won’t look the same! My eyes are on you. My anointing is covering you. I am moving you beyond- out beyond! Propelling you! Get ready! Be ready! I will do this quickly!

Joshua 23:14 “Now behold, today I am going the way of all the earth, and you know in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one word of all the good words which the LORD your God spoke concerning you has failed; all have been fulfilled for you, not one of them has failed.”

God is faithful! He will do it!
