 JESUS!!!!

It didn't post yesterday Monday. I had been thinking about this post since last week but wasn't quite sure about it. However, it came to me to pray for others. So many things are happening in the world and we have been here confessing over ourselves but praying for others helps them and us as well. So this week I will start with posting prayers of confessions that can be used for others and see where things go from there. This is what the Bible says about praying for others:

Job 42:10 And the Lord restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. 

Romans 8:1-39
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. ... 

Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 

Philippians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all un 

derstanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.


Confession for Salvation:

Heavenly Father, before you formed ___________ in the belly and before ______came for out of the womb, You sanctified, You knew _______ and You ordained him/her a prophet unto the nations (Jerimiah1:5). You have from the beginning chosen ____ to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth whereby You called __________ to the Gospel and obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Thess. 2:13-14). 



Thank You Father, that you have delivered _________ from people, unto whom You now send ________, to open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that __________freely receives forgiveness of sins, and his/her inheritance among those which are sanctified by faith that is in Jesus Christ. ( Acts 26:17-18).


 

THE MIND GAME...WARRING FOR THE WIN

(Just a note:  I started this 10pm Monday but with all my research it didn't get finished until after 12am.)

 

This post is coming a bit later in the day. Late night is more like it. But I was up to 6am in the morning with two or three naps throughout the day before. So needless to say, I got a not so early start.  But I had to do this confession anyway because well I said I would and I was having a battle of the mind earlier. It went something like this: "Oh God, what have I done to myself?" "Why would I allow myself to believe anything good could happen?" "I must be the biggest idiot around". "What am I thinking?" "If I would just walk away now I might be able to save myself." "Perhaps I am no more and will achieve no more than what is right now." "Oh God why would you do this to me." "Where is this going?" "Stupid stupid girl." "I hate you devil you no good nothing." I get upset with everyone even my biggest ally, the Lord which I know is absolutely ridiculous but those feelings and emotions start playing on ya. I just get to disappointed because I'm like, "Lord really?" "He is supposed to be for me. I am doing all that I can." It's not good but that is the battle that tries to take root.

Then I was thinking I just need to move from L.A. again as I usually do but try not to because I know the Lord has told me to stop thinking about that. But it is so tempting. Now check this out. No sooner than I had that thought and it was about to take root, I turned on Pandora and a song, I think by Toby Mac, had just started and the third line in the first verse said, "I'm packing my bags to leave when I am supposed to stay." It's makes me cry right now because that one line in that one moment I believed was God talking to me. It was no coinkydink. It happened so fast that if I wasn't conscious in my thoughts at the time I would have missed it. After that another song came on by someone "West" (first name or last name) and it said, "I am not defined by the wreckage of the past. My name is Child of God." How amazing God is! He can speak to you in so many ways. "Wow Lord you are the only living God. Thank you for speaking to me." Then I saw a text from my sister friend NicoleSconiers.com:

Proverbs 3:5-6

⁵ Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
⁶ In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.

Look at God! God says in Isaiah 55:8, "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways." Then I finally read my index cards and was able to get back on track. I came across one about what I have been called to do.I will tell you right now I don't know where this is going. I have put literally everything into it. At times I can't even see how it can get better. But I know this:

Romans 4:17
(As it is written, I have made you a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who gives life to the dead, and calls those things which are not as though they were.

Wow so many scriptures are coming to me now and as they come I cry out each one. So I am led to print them.

Hebrews 11:3
By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

Romans 4:18
Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, "So shall your offspring be."

Isaiah 48:13
My own hand laid the foundations of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they all stand up together.

Matthew 19:27-30

Peter answered him, “We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?”

Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.

Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is living, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

So there! Those are the ones that came to me as I have been writing this post. 

Confession:

I thank, You, Christ Jesus my Lord for enabling me and counting me faithful, putting me into the ministry. I can do all this through Christ who gives me strength. I am like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf shall not wither; and whatever I set my hands to shall prosper. Thank You, Father that Satan's plan for my life has been destroyed and Your plan for my life has been enforced and established by Your Word. I am not defined by the wreckage of the past but by my name "Child of God". Thank You for Your love emanating from me that has the power to transform the lives of those I come in contact with. I'm like a fountain and the healing anointing and power of God flows through me. My life radiates with the love of Jesus causing the healing anointing to reach out to others wherever they may have a need.  Thank You that I've been anointed by Christ the Anointed one to remove every burden and destroy every yoke of bondage in relationships, finances, healing and assuring overcoming victory in every area. The spirit of the Lord is upon me because You have anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, the recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised and to preach the acceptable year of the Lord. I bind and release anything hindering my walk with You Father. You have given me victory over every circumstance and trial in this life that would attempt to hinder Your call or purpose in my life. In, Jesus name. Amen!

HAPPY SUNDAY!

I would like to spend a few days on WISDOM. I know I could use it and more of it for this journey. 

Confession: Christ dwells in my heart by faith, and being rooted and grounded in love that I comprehend with all saints what is the breath, length, depth, and height; to know the love of Christ which passes all understanding that I might be filled with all the fullness of God. Thank You for giving me the glorious wisdom that You've also given to Your servant, David. I have the spirit of wisdom and the knowledge of Christ, and the eyes of my understanding are enlightened that I might know the hope of Your calling and the riches of the glory of Your inheritance in the saints.

I love you Jesus. Thank you for all you have done.

Thank You Lord!

Hello all! This is the last blog for this week ending today, Saturday. I gotta write that down so I can keep up.

I don't know about you but what these confessions have done for me was take focus off of my desires and put them on God and His character. He gives me the desires of my heart providing they are in line with his Word. So rather than focus on the desires which will not come to pass on their own we shift that focus to the one who gives the manifestation of the desires of your heart. God is the giver. Therefore the focus shifts to him and him only. Focusing on the giver has caused me to experience more peace and rest. Even more my mom blessed me this week so richly. And I am so grateful for her. God answered through my mother a need and desire. So I can commission the angels and I am commissioning them to go forth and bring in more blessings and opportunities from the N, S, E and W.

Giving thanks is powerful. The Lord is so loving and it is necessary to remember that.

Confession: Thank you angels for being obedient to my commands, I continue to loose ministering spirits to execute the Word of God for me. I thank You Father, that Your angels excel in strength at Your Word. My family, my church, and everything that concerns me is covered by the Blood of Jesus Christ and ministering spirits. I apply the Blood of Jesus to every place my feet tread. I thank You for the hedge of protection and fortress that surrounds my dwelling. I give You praise and glory. You alone are worthy; I thank You and I praise You. You are a might God and I give You all the glory. I recognize You are my chosen God, that have made the right choices. You are My Healer and My Deliverer, therefore I enter into Your gates with thanksgiving and Your courts with praise. I glorify You and magnify You; I lift up holy hands before You, because You are the Only Living God. Hallelujah!

 

What?! What?! What?!

I was going to blog about something else but as I was writing the blog I remembered a scripture. Then I had to go with that because I often forget this one and it is an important one to remember just like the rest of them, lol, of course. I am actually laughing at myself over here. And so you know this blog was not supposed to be this long. You were warned. LOL.

Anyway let's get started. First I like to remind myself no matter what I am going through God loves me unconditionally by no merit of my own. I didn't have to do anything to earn His magnanimous everlasting love. He will never leave me nor forsake me. 

Ok with that said here is the scripture that came to me: For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons. For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds. 2 Corinthians 10: 3-5 I don’t know which translation that is but I like it.

Here is another one I like: The truth is that, although of course we lead normal human lives, the battle we are fighting is on the spiritual level. The very weapons we use are not those of human warfare but powerful in God’s warfare for the destruction of the enemy’s strongholds. Our battle is to bring down every deceptive fantasy and every imposing defense that men erect against the true knowledge of God. We even fight to capture every thought until it acknowledges the authority of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10: 3-5 J.B. Phillips New Testament (PHILLIPS)

It's easy in the good times to confess the Word, but when they are not so good that's where the work comes in. We must fight, fighting the good fight of faith. “It's a good fight because we are declared the winner from the beginning”, my Pastor says. Oh how I wish we never had to fight, period. But as long as the enemy is in the earth realm we are going to have to. Know this, the devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy. John 10:10. Just like what happened in Boston the other day. That's the devil’s aka thief’s aka enemy’s goal; to steal joy, kill us and destroy an innocent good time. He does this even to his own. He works through people to do this, just as God works through us. 

Oh here is another scripture that just came to mind: For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6: 12.  

Once you purpose to get God's word in your heart the enemy comes to try to take it. Remember I told you. These scriptures are coming to me left and right. I forgot I knew this many. Here is another scripture: "When the Enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of God will raise a standard against him!" (Isaiah 59:19) It has been stated that the comma is in the improper place. Either way I like to read it like this because greater is the Lord than the enemy: "When the Enemy comes in, like a flood the Spirit of God will raise a standard against him!" (Isaiah 59:19) We must remember to use the “authority and power” we have been given by God to bring the enemy down in our lives.

Confession: I am a master at using my weapons of mass destruction on the enemy. For the weapons of my warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 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. No weapon formed against me shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against me in judgment shall be condemned. I am the righteousness of the Lord through Jesus Christ. I am born of God. I am a world overcomer by my faith. Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. Thanks be to you Father, who in Christ always leads me in triumph. I have the victory in every area of my life. I rebuke the devil right now in the name of Jesus. The enemy will not come against me to take this word because if he does the Spirit of Almighty God will raise a standard against him. I submit myself to God. I resist the enemy and he shall flee from me. For I remember I do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
