LET YOUR FAITH ARISE

This is not the time to be submissive to the enemy. This is the time to be alert, to be on guard, to stand still and to be positioned for the battle against the enemy. You cannot be sorry for the enemy, the enemy is never sorry to steal, kill and destroy you.

Many in God's army are worn out and fear the future but you cannot run from the enemy because you cannot face the enemy in your own strenghth, therefore let us allow God to face the enemy on our behalf. If we determine in our heart that our war is not against our brothers and our sisters but against the enemy, we would take this fight of life, survival, and destiny seriously, not for ourselves but for our children and generations to come.

Be reminded that victory is already ours, our future is our power and it is also our strength, that is why we have to be at alert for the devil is roaming around looking for whom to kill and destroy but God Has the overall power over our future. The Lord God has promised that we shall move from glory to glory, from strength to strength and faith will arise from faith to faith.

There is fresh anointing pouring on the children of God. God is empowering His children to move forward in His strength and power. The almond tree is budding and the olive tree is blooming, ripe and ready for harvest.

God's fresh anointing over the earth and over His prophets is causing them to use the power of their mouth to decree over the lives of people and over situations and that which they voice out will be established. See how God will move things and shift things among people, at the governmental level, and in the kingdom that the children of God are building here on earth.

Have you been called from Heaven to demonstrate Heaven on earth? Take your place now and rise up to your call and receive the impartation of God's strength and power. God's Army, His soldiers do strategic warfare in God's strength.

And from the days of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom of Heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. (Matthew 11:12 KJV)

TEAR DOWN STRONGHOLDS

To exert force means to seize something with great force and in an aggressive manner in order to plunder and lay firm hold of it. This is what the enemy does. The Army of God, His beleivers, on the other hand, are soilders who hold firm to the word of God regarding fulfilling destinies, so they use the word of God to strategically defeat the enmy with the authority of God.

And that about wraps it up. God is strong, and he wants you strong. So take everything the Master has set out for you, well-made weapons of the best materials. And put them to use so you will be able to stand up to everything the Devil throws your way. This is no afternoon athletic contest that we’ll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps, a life-or-death fight to the finish against the Devil and all his angels. Ephesians 6:12 (MSG)

Stand therefore [hold your ground], having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God,Ephesians 6:14

Sometimes believers cannot physically see their enemies but the Spirit of the Lord will warn and begin to intercede. Even though the demons may not be seen, the trauma, the attacks, and the casualties caused are known and sometimes God will reveal them through dreams and visions. We have to understand that our warfare is not against people but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.

What are strongholds? Strongholds represent many things that hold us captive, they include insecurity, fear, doubt, suspicion, jealousy, depression, anxiety, envy, pride to mention a few. and it is the responsibility of everyone to pull these strongholds down by the power of God.

casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, 6 and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. 2 Corinthians 10:5-6 (NKJV)

A stronghold lives in the mind of a person. That is, of course, the work of the enemy making people beleive what is not true, causing doubt, unbelief, and fear while in some cases it is the fixed religious mindset of people that hold them captive. To pull down strongholds you need faith. Faith is the currency used to communicate with Heaven and to win against the enemy faith must arise.

Also, faith without works is dead, you need to study the word of God by day and by night which is totally worth it, the word of God tells us what He is saying, you also have to align your thoughts with the thoughts of God. Most times the enemy robs the children of God of power because they do not know who they are and what authority they carry, but if the children of God can agree and allow God to have His way in their lives, no longer will there be worry or fear. It is time for the children of God to renew their entire mind.

Do not be conformed to this world (this age), fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs, but be transformed (changed) by the entire renewal of your mind by its new ideals and its new attitude, so that you may prove for yourselves what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect in His sight for you. Romans 12:2

The two most powerful words in the world are the words "I AM." God is the I AM that I AM and we were all created in His image to show Him off.

The great I AM is saying to us that :

I AM your healer.

I AM your provider. I AM your strength. I AM the God of covenant. I AM your shield and buckler. I AM your hightower.

It is, therefore, time for you to allow your faith to rise and begin to speak over yourself. when you say it out with your mouth, you are pulling down stronghold and breaking through even if you do not physically see it, faith is all you need.

Always remember that you are who God says that you are not who the enemy saya that you are. Anything that God says you are is true and sure so beleive it and begin to decree it.

• I am blessed. • I am prosperous. • I am healed. • I am victorious. • I am creative. • I am successful. • I am powerful. • I am wise. • I am positive. • I am valuable. • I am free. • I am redeemed. • I am resourceful. • I am smart. • I am handsome. • I am beautiful. • I am gifted. • I am anointed. • I am equipped. • I am determined. • I am a force to be reckoned with!
