BE A VICTOR AND NOT A VICTIM


And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands.
(1Sa 17:47 KJV)
And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.
(Num 13:30 KJV)
The enemy to fear is faith. David confronted the enemy. He chose not to run. He stared that enemy in the face and stood on the authority of God’s Word and covenant with Israel.

David’s confidence was in the faithfulness and power of the God he knew so well. David made a good confession: “Then al this assembly shall know that the Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s and He will give you into our hands.”
 (1 Samuel 17:47)

Friend, it is time to face the giant in your life. Confront your enemy. Don’t run.

When trouble comes, don’t get so consumed with the problem that you forget the great things God has performed in the past. Let your past victories build your faith.

Remember, when you are in the heat of the battle, God fights for you. And who is there who can stand against the might of our God?

Do not look at the temporal circumstances. Accept the good report and not the evil report. Be like Caleb and Joshua.Don’t get locked into your current condition.

God wants you free of fear. Put your faith to work. Resist the devil with the promises of God and that spirit of fear will flee.

THE BATTLE IS ALREADY WON

THE BATTLE IS ALREADY WON. WE NEED NOT TO FEAR ABOUT ANYTHING FOR FEAR IS A SPIRIT NOT FROM GOD. GOD GAVE US VICTORY OVER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES. LET NOT THE CIRCUMSTANCES MASTER YOU:- YOU BE THE MASTERS OF SITUATIONS.MY GOD IS SO WONDERFUL AND AWESOME. WHAT A MIGHTY GOD WE SERVE. BE ENCOURAGED AND KNOW THAT THE DEVIL KNOWS THAT YOU ARE BE...YOND POWERFUL THAN HIM. HE IS JUST LIKE A MIST AND TRIES HIS BEST TO BRING FEAR AND DISAPPOINTMENTS IN LIFE. HE JUST WANTS TO BRING A MESS IN OUR LIVES.HE TRIES ALL HIS BEST TO TEMPT US BUT REMEMBER " My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
(Jas 1:2-8 KJV)

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Do not err, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
(Jas 1:12-17 KJV)
DEAR FRIENDS, KNOW THAT MY JESUS IS STILL IN THE SAVING AND DELIVERING BUSINESS.HE DID THAT 2000YEARS AGO, AND HE DOES IT 2DAY. I STILL REMEMBER MY FAVOURITE EVANGELIST R.W.SHAMBACH SAYING:"WHEN THE DEVIL STARTS MESSING, GOD STARTS BLESSING"
WHEN TROUBLES COME YOUR WAY, LIFT YOUR HANDS UP HIGH AND SAY ---ITS HALLELUJAH ANYWAY.
COUNT ON MY JESUS.
WHEN WE TRAVEL IN BUSES AND TAXIS, WE PUT OUR FULL CONFIDENCE UPON THE DRIVER THAT HE WILL TAKE US SAFELY THRU OUR JOURNEY.WE MAY NOT KNOW WHO HE IS, STILL WE CHOOSE TO BOARD THE BUS.
WHY CAN'T WE PUT OUR FULL DEPENDENCY ON GOD WHOM WE KNOW VERY PERSONALLY. TRY TO DEPEND ON HIM.
MY FAVOURITE VERSE IN PSALM 118:8 READS- It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. "
(Psa 118:8 KJV)
MY GOD CAN TURN ALL HOPELESS SITUATIONS AROUND. NO MATTER WHAT IT MAY BE.
FEAR WORKS IN TOTAL OPPOSITION OF FAITH.
HAVE FAITH IN THE LORD AND YOU SHALL CROSS THE RED SEA ON DRY GROUNDS.
GOD BLESS.

BE ENCOURAGED

The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing. (Psa 34:7-10 KJV)

When everyone turns there faces from you, when nothing good seems to work out for you, just remember that someone admires you so much. He even can't get His eyes off you. He even gave charge to His Heavenly Hosts to keep an eye on you. Aren't you soooooo special to Him? Keep trusting Him and you shall never be in any lack. For He Himself is Jehovah Jireh- My Provider.
God Bless friends !!
