Your Power, Ability, and Sufficiency Are from God

NOT THAT WE ARE FIT (QUALIFIED AND SUFFICIENT IN ABILITY) OF OURSELVES TO FORM PERSONAL JUDGMENTS OR TO CLAIM OR COUNT ANYTHING AS COMING FROM US, BUT OUR POWER AND ABILITY AND SUFFICIENCY ARE FROM GOD
(2 Corinthians 3:5 AMP).

I bless you to be comforted if you have been trying in vain to be good, kind, and patient.  Understand that Jesus alone has become your Source of Righteousness from God—your Patience, your Goodness, and your Kindness.  Your sufficiency of Righteousness comes from God.

I bless you to be comforted if you have not been able to muster up hope for your future.  Remember, it is the God of Hope who fills you with Joy and Peace, when you trust in Him.  Your sufficiency of Hope comes from God.

I bless you to be comforted if you have been unable to achieve peace in your heart, during your unsettling circumstances.  Remember, only the Lord of Peace delivers Peace to your heart, at all times, and in every way.  Your sufficiency of Peace comes from God.

I bless you to be comforted if the father-of-lies has confused you, and you have not been able to unlock the truth.  Remember, only the Spirit of Truth is able to guide you into all Truth.  Your sufficiency of Truth comes from God.

 I bless you to be comforted if you have not found the power to solve your problems.  Your sufficiency of Power comes from God, for from Him, through Him, and to Him are all things.

FOR FROM HIM AND THROUGH HIM AND TO HIM ARE ALL THINGS. TO HIM BE THE GLORY FOREVER! AMEN
(Romans 11:36).

Remember, your Power, Ability, and Sufficiency
are FROM God, THROUGH God, and TO God.
He is the Source of all things, at all times, and in every way.

From where do YOU receive power to do what is right? From where do YOU receive the ability to have Hope? From where do YOU receive the means to have Peace in your circumstances? Who or what is your source of sufficiency?

PRAYER: Most High, I surrender my insufficiency to You. I admit that I do not have the power to solve my problems. Become my Source of Power. Deliver Truth to my confused mind, as I bow down to You, the Source of Truth. Become my Goodness, my Patience, and my Kindness, as I submit my heart to You, the Source of Righteousness. God, Source of Hope, fill me with Your Hope, Your Peace, and Your Joy, as I entrust my circumstances to You.

The Darkness Shall not Hide from You

HE WILL REDEEM HIS SOUL FROM GOING DOWN TO THE PIT, AND HIS LIFE SHALL SEE THE LIGHT
(Job 33:28).

The other night, I sat on the beach, in front of my house, to witness the rising of the full moon.  I watched the lights of the fishing village grow brighter as the evening grew dimmer.  As the glow of the sunset faded into hues of gray in the western sky, the full moon ballooned from the horizon in the east.  A beam of dazzling light crept slowly across the water until it touched the sand at my feet.

The silver moon climbed high into the evening sky, causing the pebbles to shimmer on the beach like a highway inlaid with jewels.  I could feel the moon light shining on my face like a lamp.  Night appeared like day.

INDEED, THE DARKNESS SHALL NOT HIDE FROM YOU, BUT THE NIGHT SHINES AS THE DAY; THE DARKNESS AND THE LIGHT ARE BOTH ALIKE TO YOU
(Psalm 139:12).

 Precious One, be excited that darkness and light are both alike to your Perfect Father. Although you might be engulfed in thick oppressing darkness, right now, I, the Most High, can see right through it. You are safe. To Me, the night shines like the day. Although your understanding might have become clouded by the darkness around you, My Perspective has stayed acute. I still know the way.

When you cannot see the way anymore, Child, take your Father’s Hand. Let My Words be a Lamp to your feet. Lean on My understanding, for I will make your crooked paths level and straight. I will protect you from evil and redeem your soul from going down to the pit. I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go, while I guide you with My Eye. Your Everlasting Father, who sees in the dark, will lead you to the Light, where you will find your Purpose.

I WILL INSTRUCT YOU AND TEACH YOU IN THE WAY YOU SHOULD GO; I WILL GUIDE YOU WITH MY EYE
(Psalm 32:8).

 Are all your paths crooked right now? Has darkness closed in around you, causing you to stumble around, looking for the right way? Have you fallen into the pit?

Take God’s Hand and ask Him to lead you out of the pit into the Light? Remember, He can clearly see the way…always.

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I am in darkness and I am lost and afraid. I look around me, but I do not see the way. All my paths seem crooked. I do not know what to do and where to go. I am lost in my negative thoughts of hopelessness, helplessness, and powerlessness. I need help.

As I take Your Hand, O Lord, lead me to the Light, so I may be filled with Your Joy, Hope, and Peace. Take me to the place of Belonging and Acceptance. Let me be found. Be a Lamp to my feet. Guide me to Your Purpose. Your Name be praised.

So, yes, the deepest urge in human nature seems to be the desire to be important–to matter. But, it is not the PRINCIPLE of wanting to be important that is wrong; instead, it is the way we adapt or the means we adopt to meet this most urgent desire of our hearts.

You Will Trample the Serpent

FOR I RECKON THAT THE SUFFERINGS OF THIS PRESENT TIME ARE NOT WORTHY TO BE COMPARED WITH THE GLORY WHICH SHALL BE REVEALED IN US
(Romans 8:18)

THE SERPENT YOU SHALL TRAMPLE UNDERFOOT
(Psalm 91:13).

Have you learned how to trample the serpent in your circumstances? I have, after I learned to stop focusing on the troubles my natural eyes could see and started focusing on the things only the spiritual eyes of my heart were able to see—the Glory of God.

FOR OUR PRESENT TROUBLES ARE SMALL AND WON’T LAST VERY LONG. YET THEY PRODUCE FOR US A GLORY THAT VASTLY OUTWEIGHS THEM AND WILL LAST FOREVER! SO WE DON’T LOOK AT THE TROUBLES WE CAN SEE NOW; RATHER, WE FIX OUR GAZE ON THINGS THAT CANNOT BE SEEN. FOR THE THINGS WE SEE NOW WILL SOON BE GONE, BUT THE THINGS WE CANNOT SEE WILL LAST FOREVER
(2 Corinthians 4:17-18).

Precious One, be encouraged. You will trample the serpent, if you learn to look at things with the spiritual eyes of your heart, instead of your natural eyes. If you stop focusing on the troubles you can see, but rather, fix your eyes on things only your spiritual eyes can see, you will see the Light. You will see My Answers. You will witness the Glory of the New Jerusalem, which comes out of Heaven, from Me. I will show you the open doors, which nobody will be able to shut. I will clothe you with the Robe of Righteousness, which no-one will be able to remove. When you behold My Glory that vastly outweighs the troubles you see with your naturel eyes, you will know how to trample the serpent.

HIM THAT OVERCOMETH WILL I MAKE A PILLAR IN THE TEMPLE OF MY GOD, AND HE SHALL GO NO MORE OUT: AND I WILL WRITE UPON HIM THE NAME OF MY GOD, AND THE NAME OF THE CITY OF MY GOD, WHICH IS NEW JERUSALEM, WHICH COMETH DOWN OUT OF HEAVEN FROM MY GOD: AND I WILL WRITE UPON HIM MY NEW NAME
(Revelation 3:12).

 Are you suffering right now? Have you learned to trample the serpent?

Develop the spiritual eyes of your heart, so you may see God’s Glory in the midst of your suffering. You do this by focusing inward, on your heart, and on what God wants to show you, through your heart. You learn to overcome when you stop running away from the serpent, but confront him, through your own suffering, in your own heart. There, when God shows you His Glory, you find the strength to trample the serpent in your circumstances.

PRAYER: Lord God, show me Your Glory, so I may see Your Answers, in my heart, and trample the serpent in my circumstances.

The Two Counsels

A Hardened Heart Causes Ignorance

SO I TELL YOU THIS, AND INSIST ON IT IN THE LORD, THAT YOU MUST NO LONGER LIVE AS THE GENTILES DO, IN THE FUTILITY OF THEIR THINKING. THEY ARE DARKENED IN THEIR UNDERSTANDING AND SEPARATED FROM THE LIFE OF GOD BECAUSE OF THE IGNORANCE THAT IS IN THEM DUE TO THE HARDENING OF THEIR HEARTS
(Ephesians 4:17-18).

Notice that a hardened heart causes a vicious circle. A hardened heart causes ignorance—the lack of understanding. This darkened understanding causes one to be separated from the Life of God, leaving a person to his own futile thoughts, which eventually lead to evil desires.

AS OBEDIENT CHILDREN, DO NOT CONFORM TO THE EVIL DESIRES YOU HAD WHEN YOU LIVED IN IGNORANCE
(1 Peter 1:14).

Understand that a hardened heart causes a lack of knowing God’s Truth, a lack of experiencing God’s Hope, and a lack of perceiving God’s Love—SEPARATION FROM THE LIFE OF GOD. Once you feel separated from God’s Truth, Hope, and Love, the lies from the father-of-lies seem like the truth. At this point, you are unable to separate right from wrong, evil from good, and God from the father-of-lies. Since your understanding is darkened, you start thinking futile thoughts: thoughts that serve the father-of-lies…thoughts that kill, steal, and destroy…thoughts that disobey God. And if you conform to these futile thoughts, they lead to sin and death.

IN THE PAST GOD OVERLOOKED SUCH IGNORANCE, BUT NOW HE COMMANDS ALL PEOPLE EVERYWHERE TO REPENT
(Acts 17:30).

NOTICE THAT GOD DOES NOT OVERLOOK IGNORANCE!

Repent from your hardened heart—living in the ignorance of your own understanding and the futility of your own thinking.

Then, you will no longer be separated from the Life of God.  The lies of the father-of-lies will be exposed.  Your hopelessness and despair will be exchanged for God’s Hope.  Your animosity will be exchanged for God’s Love. And you will LIVE!

What has hardened your heart? Why are you holding onto your hardened heart? What will it take for you to surrender the oppressing beliefs from the father-of-lies that are causing your hardened heart, to God, and be changed…or rather, exchanged?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I repent of my hardened heart, because I want to stop conforming to the evil desires that this hardened heart of mine is causing.

The Two Counsels

Lay Down Your Life of Depression

Understand that Self, who lives in us, is self-contained.  It depends on its own understanding as its only resource. This renders us susceptible to depression—a period spent in dejection and hopelessness—because of the negative, destructive beliefs that live in our own self-contained understanding.

THEN JESUS ANSWERED, ‘WILL YOU REALLY LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR ME’
(John 13:38).

There was a time when I suffered from depression, spending three days at a time in dejection and hopelessness.  My period of depression would be marked by sadness, inactivity, excessive sleeping, and suicidal thoughts. What’s more, I always thought depression was something that “happened” to me from the outside, until I discovered that depression always manifested after a negative, destructive thought had entered my mind and I had willfully decided to accept that thought as the truth.

HOW FOOLISH!  WHAT YOU SOW DOES NOT COME TO LIFE UNLESS IT DIES
(1 Corinthians 15:36).

 One day, the Lord Jesus asked me, “Will you lay down your understanding for Mine?  Will you deliberately lay down your self-contained Self for Me? Will you let Me exchange the negative, destructive beliefs in your mind that are causing your depression, for My Counsel?”

YOU HOLD ME BY MY RIGHT HAND. YOU WILL GUIDE ME WITH YOUR COUNSEL, AND AFTERWARD RECEIVE ME TO GLORY
(Psalm 73:23-24).

I bless you to grasp that your depression will not lift, until you are willing to let the negative, destructive thoughts that are feeding it die.  When you become willing to stop having fellowship with the dark thoughts of the father-of-lies, but instead, have these exchanged for God’s Counsel, your depression will lift from your mind and heart…and leave.

What oppressing thoughts have been causing you to spend periods of your precious time in dejection and hopelessness?

Did you know that you have a choice: to spend your time in dejection and hopelessness, or to submit these thoughts to the Lord Jesus…and live?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I am willing to lay down my life of depression for You. Show me the oppressing thoughts from the father-of-lies that are driving me to dejection and hopelessness, so I may submit them to You. Help me to understand that depression is not something that is happening to me from the outside, but a deliberate act on my side to willfully accept the oppressing beliefs from the father-of-lies as my only truth.

Will You Lay Down Your Life of Over-indulgence?

THEN JESUS ANSWERED, ‘WILL YOU REALLY LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR ME’
(John 13:38).

How do you deal with the emotional pain in your heart—the pain that sits on top of the negative, destructive beliefs that you are not good enough…that you are doomed and damned…that you are a disappointment?

Do you deal with your pain through the defense mechanism of over-indulgence—turning to excessiveness of some sorts, rather than Jesus, to ease your pain?  Know for certain that if you sow overdo and overuse, you will reap DESTRUCTION, but if you sow to surrender your pain to the Spirit, from the Spirit you will reap LIFE and PEACE.

THE ONE WHO SOWS TO PLEASE HIS SINFUL NATURE, FROM THAT NATURE WILL REAP DESTRUCTION; THE ONE WHO SOWS TO PLEASE THE SPIRIT, FROM THE SPIRIT WILL REAP ETERNAL LIFE
(Galatians 6:8).

I bless you to give up seeking relief from your pain through over-indulgence of any kind.  Instead, allow yourself to pause before you indulge, and EMBRACE the pain that instigates you to overdo.  Identify the hurt.  Find the beliefs the father-of-lies has planted in your mind: the thoughts that persuade you to run to FOOD to eliminate the heartache, to run to DRINK to shut out the hurt, and to run to DRUGS to squash the anguish.  Then, EXPOSE these interpretations to the Lord Jesus in EXCHANGE for His free-setting Truth.  He knows you. He will tell you who you really are. Then, the Peace of God will rule in your heart, through His Spirit, allowing you to be thankful for who you are and what you have.

AND LET THE PEACE OF GOD RULE IN YOUR HEARTS, TO WHICH ALSO YOU WERE CALLED IN ONE BODY; AND BE THANKFUL
(Colossians 3:15).

 Are you aware of the reason of your over-indulgence—negative, destructive beliefs instilled in your mind by the father-of-lies? Do you know what these beliefs are telling you?

What will it take for you to stop turning to someone or something other than the Lord Jesus to still the pain in your heart?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, teach me to EMBRACE the emotional pain in my heart, instead of running away to excessiveness of all kinds. Help me to find and EXPOSE the underlying beliefs of abandonment, condemnation, rejection, and shame in my heart. Then, EXCHANGE these perturbing perceptions for Your Truth, my Lord, for without Your work of EXCHANGE in my heart, there will be no CHANGE in me—there will be no LIFE and no PEACE.

The Two Counsels

Will You Lay Down Your Life of Forsaking the Task?

THEN JESUS ANSWERED, ‘WILL YOU REALLY LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR ME’
(John 13:38).

Do you deal with your pain through the defense mechanism of running away from a task, not following through, forsaking the job? Do you easily give up…abandon hope…throw in the towel?

BECAUSE YOU ARE HIS SONS, GOD SENT THE SPIRIT OF HIS SON INTO OUR HEARTS, THE SPIRIT WHO CALLS OUT, ‘ABBA, FATHER’
(Galatians 4:6).

Know that God made His Spirit available to live in your heart, so He may supply you with everything you need for life and godliness.  You are not forsaken to deal with the task-at-hand on your own. His Presence in you supplies all the Love, Hope, and Truth that you need for any job God has given you. You are connected to the Source who never gives up.

THE ONE WHO SOWS TO PLEASE HIS SINFUL NATURE, FROM THAT NATURE WILL REAP DESTRUCTION; THE ONE WHO SOWS TO PLEASE THE SPIRIT, FROM THE SPIRIT WILL REAP ETERNAL LIFE
(Galatians 6:8).

I urge you to give up your task-forsaking behavior.  Instead, allow yourself to feel the pain that instigates you to give up.  Find the belief the father-of-lies has planted into your mind—the thinking that is trying to persuade you to desert your task.  Then surrender this emotion and underlying conclusion to the Lord Jesus to be replaced with His free setting Truth.

HOWEVER, I CONSIDER MY LIFE WORTH NOTHING TO ME, IF ONLY I MAY FINISH THE RACE AND COMPLETE THE TASK THE LORD JESUS HAS GIVEN ME
(Acts 20:24).

May you lay down your life-pattern of giving up…abandoning hope…throwing in the towel, so you might complete the tasks the Lord Jesus has given you. If you sow relinquishment of your task, you will reap destruction.  But if you sow to live from the Source who never gives up, from this Spirit you will reap self-control.

Why do you give up so easily? What do you believe would happen if you persevered, in order to finish the task the Lord Jesus has given you?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I want to finish the task You have given me to do, but I can’t. Therefore, I invite Your Presence and Participation into my sinful defense pattern of giving up: abandoning Your Hope…leaving Your Love…forfeiting Your Truth. Redeem me from this behavior, my Lord, and the underlying beliefs from the father-of-lies that keep this behavior alive. Bring me to the place where I would consider my life worth nothing, unless I completed the task You have given me for my life.

Will You Lay Down Your Life of Mind-reading?

THEN JESUS ANSWERED, ‘WILL YOU REALLY LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR ME’
(John 13:38).

Have you adopted the sinful defense mechanism of mind-reading? Do you always assume you know what others are thinking?  Do you read between the lines?  Are you always gathering information to prove your presupposed point?  Do you like to surmise, basing your ideas on scanty evidence?

THE MAN WHO LOVES HIS LIFE WILL LOSE IT, WHILE THE MAN WHO HATES HIS LIFE IN THIS WORLD WILL KEEP IT FOR ETERNAL LIFE
(John 12:25).

Grasp that the father-of-lies, the master of deception, will take advantage of your willful mind-reading, each time.  He will use your rebellion as an opportunity to drag misinterpretations into your mind, inserting more than is there, causing you to see yourself and others in a false light.

If you sow to please your sinful nature through obstinate mind-reading, you will reap destruction, but if you sow to deliberately and entirely submit your will to the Spirit, from the Spirit you will reap Truth. This Truth will set you free, will bring you Joy, and will give you Hope.

THE ONE WHO SOWS TO PLEASE HIS SINFUL NATURE, FROM THAT NATURE WILL REAP DESTRUCTION; THE ONE WHO SOWS TO PLEASE THE SPIRIT, FROM THE SPIRIT WILL REAP ETERNAL LIFE
(Galatians 6:8).

 I bless you to consider letting go of your rebellious mind-reading. Stop holding onto it as something precious. Don’t assume you know what others are thinking.  Don’t read between the lines.  Stop gathering information to prove your presupposed point.  Quit surmising.  Stop guessing. Instead, focus on finishing the race YOU have to run, and to complete the task the Lord Jesus has given YOU.

HOWEVER, I CONSIDER MY LIFE WORTH NOTHING TO ME, IF ONLY I MAY FINISH THE RACE AND COMPLETE THE TASK THE LORD JESUS HAS GIVEN ME
(Acts 20:24).

Why do you mind-read? What good has ever come of it? On the other hand, how has your mind-reading hurt you and others?

What will it take for you to stop guessing what others are thinking of you by arriving at your conclusions through your own understanding?

PRAYER: Lord God, I repent of my mind-reading. I am sorry, my Lord. I wish to change, but I know I can do nothing by myself. Work Your Grace and Mercy in my heart, so I would change and give up reading others’ minds. May my mind belong to You only and may everything it thinks only honor You.

Regardless of which pain you have, the determining question is, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH IT?

The Two Counsels

Will You Lay Down Your Life for Me?

I was having a discussion with someone the other day about the anti-Christ.  We were wondering who the anti-Christ was, and from where he would come.  Is it a person?  Is it a force?  Is it already here or is it still to come?

Then I thought to myself, I don’t know who the anti-Christ really is, but I know that I have an anti-Christ already living inside of me.  It is very powerful.  It is very selfish.  And it is very anti Christ.  Its name is Self.

BUT EVERY SPIRIT THAT DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE JESUS IS NOT FROM GOD. THIS IS THE SPIRIT OF THE ANTICHRIST, WHICH YOU HAVE HEARD IS COMING AND EVEN NOW IS ALREADY IN THE WORLD
(1 John 4:3).

Self is its own entity that runs its own life in me.  Self has its own will, its own desires, its own ambitions, its own defense, its own esteem, and its own righteousness.  Self does not acknowledge or obey Jesus as Lord.  In fact, Self serves as an agent for the father-of-lies to rival Jesus Christ as Lord. Self is anti Christ.

THEN JESUS SAID TO HIS DISCIPLES, ‘IF ANYONE WOULD COME AFTER ME, HE MUST DENY HIMSELF AND TAKE UP HIS CROSS AND FOLLOW ME. FOR WHOEVER WANTS TO SAVE HIS LIFE WILL LOSE IT, BUT WHOEVER LOSES HIS LIFE FOR ME WILL FIND IT’
(Matthew 16:24-25).

I bless you to understand that the Lord Jesus is the Anti-Self.  He has His own Righteousness He would like to establish in your life.  He has His own Will for your life.  He has His own Defense against the father-of-lies.

THEN JESUS ANSWERED, ‘WILL YOU REALLY LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR ME’
(John 13:38).

Are you satisfied with the way Self rules your life?

If you are not happy with what Self has done with your life, consider appointing the Lord Jesus as ruler of your life. Then, you will not need your Self-esteem, your Self-righteousness, and your Self defense mechanisms, because you will have Christ.

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I invite You to reign in my heart, my thoughts, and the purpose of my life. Disable my Self-righteousness to plant YOUR Righteousness in me. Disqualify my Self-esteem to create YOUR Worthiness in my heart. Disengage my Self-defense to bring about Your Truth, Hope, and Love in my being. Bring me to the place where I will deny the anti-Christ in me, so Your Anti-Self might be formed in me.

His Blessing of Truth

WHEN I WAS A CHILD, I TALKED LIKE A CHILD, I THOUGHT LIKE A CHILD, I REASONED LIKE A CHILD. WHEN I BECAME A MAN, I PUT CHILDISH WAYS BEHIND ME
(1 Corinthians 13:11).

Understand that the goal of the father-of-lies during your childhood was to produce in you a distorted mind and a disturbed heart: to promote the beliefs “You don’t belong…You are a failure…You are fatally flawed.”  The father-of-lies knew that if you would accept these accusatory beliefs as a child, you would become a slave to them for the rest of your life.

I WILL REPAY YOU FOR THE YEARS THE LOCUSTS HAVE EATEN
(Joel 2:25).

However, God has paid for the years the locusts have eaten: He sent His Son, Jesus, to reverse the lies from the father-of-lies in your heart…if you let Him.  You were bought with a price to become a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, that you should proclaim Him who called you out of the dark beliefs of the father-of-lies, into His marvelous Light of Truth.

BUT YOU ARE A CHOSEN PEOPLE, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, GOD’S SPECIAL POSSESSION, THAT YOU MAY DECLARE THE PRAISES OF HIM WHO CALLED YOU OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS WONDERFUL LIGHT
(1 Peter 2:9).

Receive God’s blessings of Love, Truth, and Hope He is offering you in exchange for the hopelessness, fear, and deception of your childhood years.  Meet Him face to face.  Experience His Love.  Taste His Hope.  Feel His Power.  Encounter His Truth.  Discover His Comfort.  Absorb His Light, so you may be children of God, without blemish, in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation that lives according to the lies of the father-of-lies.

SO THAT YOU MAY BECOME BLAMELESS AND PURE, ‘CHILDREN OF GOD WITHOUT FAULT IN A WARPED AND CROOKED GENERATION.’ THEN YOU WILL SHINE AMONG THEM LIKE STARS IN THE SKY
(Philippians 2:15).

 The Perfect Father sent you a Redeemer. Will you let Him redeem the years the locusts have eaten?

Are you willing to EMBRACE the pain, EXPOSE the lies, and let your Savior EXCHANGE these years for a whole new life?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I acknowledge You as my Savior: the One who is able to redeem…the One who is able to win back the years that have been stolen from me…the One who is able to free me from childhood blame, debt, and the consequences of sin. I lay these years at Your feet, my Lord. Please repair, restore, and reform the years the locusts have eaten.
