What you're doing now will tell on you later

While it may seem as if absolutely nothing is happening for you, and it appears to be business as usual. Know for sure that the same God who has promised his children that "ALL THINGS" must work for their good, is silently working behind the scenes ensuring that all things will do just that and that is, work for your good!

While you may not appreciate it now, in short order, you will be thanking God for this commonly used word: "seasons." That's right, those who are opposing you and are continually unfair to you. This is indeed their season, and what they're doing now will determine what will be done to them in the future! But make no mistake, as sure as night follows day, your season of restoration and uninterrupted favor is on the horizon, quickly approaching, as long as you continue to do what is right in your current season of what appears to be fruitlessness.

While others may only focus on seasons as a time of flourishing, it is a time of planting what you desire now to ensure the kind of harvest or reaping you want during your future seasons.

In other words, even though this is not your season of plenty, fairness from others, opportunities, etc., this should not discourage you from continuing to plant the seeds of being fair to others, giving, forgiving, helping, etc. Again, it will be what you're planting in your everyday life now that will determine the outcome of what your destiny will pan out later.

So don't act surprised when things begin to fall apart, and all doors are sealed shut in your life with zero evidence of opening in your next season. The truth is, you knew good and well that you made life difficult for others, blocked their opportunities, and sat on their destiny when you were in a position to advance them.

I want to say to someone today. While you may be experiencing your season of occupying the chair where you make the decisions as to whether a person will advance or not. Know for sure that you are, at the same time, determining your own future by the seeds of hate, unfairness, Victimization, or by promoting fairness, justice, and the well-being of others now.

Every season's primary purpose is to prepare us for the next season. However, we are currently determining what those future seasons will produce based on our performance towards others in the current seasons we're in. Again, God is not mocked, whatever a man does, now, be it good or bad, he will reap what he sowed, in the future, Galatians 6:7. This is not an opinion, THIS IS A LAW!

Knocked Down But Not Knocked Out

It is disappointing for the adversary to witness you rising back up after a setback.

Yes, you've been knocked down, but you must discontinue in your own strength and speak to your spirit, saying, "Greater is he that is within me than he that is in the world." "Father, I can do everything through you who strengthens and enables me." "Lord, you are my help in the time of trouble."

Why have you succumbed to defeat when there are so many scriptures to empower your spirit, man? Your enemy has given his best shots. Now it's your time to get back in the ring of life and fight as if your life depended on it. Only this time, your strategy will be struggling with the word of God!

Father, restore my mind and cause me to focus on your word in my attempts today to achieve victory over the obstacles posted in my path. Elevate me spiritually to see beyond my temporary circumstances. Assist me in guiding my tongue to avoid complaining and begin speaking what I desire to see instead of agreeing through my confessions of the negative things displayed before me.

Lord, enable me to possess the power and the mindset like your servant Job, who continued to worship and praise you despite everything going in the opposite direction of his desires.

THIS DAY. I WILL ARISE; THIS DAY, I WILL SPRING FORWARD; THIS DAY, I WILL AWAKE FROM MY SLUMBER; THIS DAY, I WILL BREAK LOOSE FROM THE CHAINS OF PROCRASTINATION AND LAZINESS, ALONG WITH THAT NEGATIVE PATTERN OF THINKING. I will achieve all this by the grace, mercy, favor, strength, and Spirit of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen!

Prayer Against All Spiritual Opposition

A Daily Prayer for Discernment, Protection, Deliverance, and Favor

Prayer for Spiritual Discernment

Father, please strengthen my ability to discern today. Allow me to see beyond the limitations of my five physical senses. Reveal to me every trap, lie, deception, conspiracy, hidden agenda, or anything else Satan and his agents may have plotted against me.

Father, I pray that the Spirit of Truth, Your Holy Spirit, will guide me into all truth, today and in the days to come (John 16:13). Give me spiritual sensitivity to recognize what is from You and what is not from You. Expose anything hidden that could negatively affect my life, my family, or the destiny You have ordained for us.

Prayer of Repentance and Cleansing

Holy Spirit, convict me of anything evil, sinful, or displeasing to God that may be lying dormant within my heart. Search me, O God, and reveal anything within me that needs correction.

Lord, I sincerely repent for every occasion when I have violated Your laws, rules, commands, or principles. I confess my sins and ask You to forgive and cleanse me so that there will be no spiritual barrier between You and me.

Your Word declares:

“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.”
Proverbs 28:13

Father, I desire Your definition of success and prosperity for myself and my family, knowing that true success comes through walking according to Your Word and obeying Your principles.

Putting on the Armor of God

Father, I now spiritually clothe myself and my family with the whole armor of God, so that we may be able to stand against the schemes, strategies, and deceitful tactics of the enemy.

Your Word commands us:

“Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” 
Ephesians 6:11

I cover myself and my family with the truth of Your Word. I put on the breastplate of righteousness, the preparation of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and I take up the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.

Prayer for Angelic Protection

Father, I pray that Your angels will surround my family and me and deliver us according to Your promise:

“The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.”
Psalm 34:7

Let Your divine protection surround our homes, vehicles, workplaces, journeys, plans, and everything concerning us.

Protect us from dangers we can see and those we cannot.

Declarations Against Evil Plans

In the name of Jesus Christ, I declare that every evil plan assigned against my family and me shall fail.

I pray that every impending report of evil designed by the enemy to bring destruction into our lives will be interrupted and overturned by the power of God.

I renounce and reject every ungodly covenant, agreement, transaction, or spiritual exchange that may have been presented or established through dreams. Let every covenant that is contrary to the will of God for my life be broken and rendered powerless in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

I also reject every corrupt, destructive, or ungodly word spoken from my own mouth or from the mouths of others against me and my family.

According to Isaiah 54:17:

“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.”

Therefore, I condemn every word, declaration, accusation, curse, and evil pronouncement that stands contrary to what God has spoken concerning my life.

Declarations of Life, Health, and Provision

I declare that life, health, strength, and divine preservation shall be the portion of my family and me today.

I decree that no good thing ordained by God shall be withheld from us, according to Psalm 84:11:

“No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.”

Father, I align myself with Your Word in Psalm 138:8:

“The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me.”

Therefore, I declare that You are perfecting everything that concerns my life, my family, my health, my ministry, my finances, my relationships, and my God-ordained destiny.

 Father, I pray that sickness and disease will not prevail against my family or me. Strengthen our bodies and preserve our health in the name of Jesus Christ.

I speak against every spirit of jealousy, hatred, deceit, anger, unforgiveness, manipulation, pride, and every other evil influence attempting to motivate people to work against my family or me.

Father, confuse and dismantle every ungodly strategy operating through such influences. Let every evil plan be frustrated and disgraced by the power of the living God, in the name of Jesus Christ.

Restoration of Missed Opportunities

Father, I declare restoration over every legitimate opportunity that was missed, delayed, obstructed, manipulated, or somehow removed from my reach.

Where the enemy has interfered with something You intended for me, I ask You to restore it according to Your perfect will.

Let opportunities that belong to my God-ordained destiny find their way back into my life. Open doors that no man can shut, and close every door that was never ordained by You.

Breaking Rejection, Failure, and Delay

Father, where rejection has influenced people who were positioned to help, favor, support, or bless me, I ask You to remove every ungodly influence responsible for that rejection.

Let every plan of darkness designed to produce unnecessary rejection be destroyed in the name of Jesus Christ.

Lord, Your Word declares that my strength comes from You. Therefore, by Your Spirit, I ask You to deliver me and everything concerning me from the tormenting influences of:

* Failure
* Defeat
* Procrastination
* Weariness
* Unnecessary delays
* Setbacks
* Discouragement
* Distraction
* Confusion
* Every other opposition attempting to challenge my God-intended destiny

Father, strengthen me to accomplish everything You have assigned me to accomplish.

As Your Word declares:

“Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.”
Zechariah 4:6

I therefore depend upon Your Spirit and not merely upon my own strength.

Covenant of Peace

Finally, Heavenly Father, today I choose to walk in agreement with Your peace.

I embrace Your Word:

“Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.”
Psalm 119:165

Father, bind my heart, mind, emotions, and faith to Your Word.

Your Word also declares:

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”
Isaiah 26:3

Therefore, I choose to keep my mind steadfast upon You.

I receive Your supernatural peace, the peace that circumstances cannot manufacture and the enemy cannot take away.

According to Philippians 4:7:

“And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Let Your peace guard my heart and mind throughout this day.

Declaration of Blessing and Favor

Father, Your Word declares:

“For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield.”
Psalm 5:12

Therefore, I receive Your blessings and embrace Your favor.

Let Your favor surround my family and me like a shield.

Go before us today. Direct our steps. Order our conversations. Govern our decisions. Connect us with the right people and separate us from every relationship, environment, opportunity, or situation that is contrary to Your will.

Give us wisdom where wisdom is needed, discernment where discernment is required, courage where courage is necessary, and peace in every circumstance.

Father, I commit this day, my family, my future, and everything concerning me into Your hands.

I declare that Your will shall prevail, Your purpose shall stand, and Your Word shall have the final authority over my life.

I receive these things by faith, in the matchless name of Your Son and our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

The spirit of Confusion must Go, in Jesus name!

Heavenly Father, I come to you this morning on behalf of someone who is presently and has been
for a while now, battling the "SPIRIT OF CONFUSION."

I come to you, Lord, reminding you of your word, which says that you are not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33). Therefore, I command the spirit of confusion that has been challenging those individuals to be destroyed by spiritual fire in the name of Jesus Christ!

Father, your word declares that confusion is the product or result of envy and strife, according to James 3:16. Lord, we use your word, which you said is liken to a sword, and sever the root of this spirit of confusion which is envy and strife and command it to die in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!

Lord, I cover every reader of this note and those confused with the blood of Jesus Christ and the whole armor of God, to the point whereby they don't know where to go, who to talk to, what to do next... Spirit of confusion, I curse you in the name of Jesus Christ and command you to leave the lives of these people permanently in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!

Now, Lord, I pray that you would replace that void that the spirit of confusion has left with your spirit of wisdom, knowledge, understanding, direction, hope, motivation, inspiration, and most of all, your spirit of TRUTH in the matchless name of Jesus Christ!

My Friends, let me inform you this morning that this oppressive spirit of confusion has been doing its best to disable the headquarters of your being, which is your mind. Therefore, you MUST fight this spirit with the spiritual weapons God has given you, which are his words!

So, whenever this spirit of confusion comes upon you, accompanied by its tentacles of being overwhelmed, frustrated, fatigued, and the like, you speak the word of God, which is literally a sword in the spirit realm, severing the existence of these tormenting spirits.

IF THIS IS FOR YOU, MY FRIEND, THEN I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU COME IN AGREEMENT WITH THE WORD OF THE LORD TO BRING RELIEF TO YOUR SITUATION IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF  JESUS CHRIST!

We Must Recalibrate Our Spiritual lens Of Revelation

Revelation involves revealing, exposing, or uncovering something that is already present! For instance, if you misplace your keys at home and later find them in your bedroom, they didn't suddenly materialize; instead, they were revealed to you during your thorough search.

 

The scripture says, "The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law" (Deut. 29:29). Based on this scripture, some secrets or mysteries are reserved solely for God, such as the origins of God, etc.

 

Nevertheless, this scripture also indicates that God has reserved certain revelations for us and our children. This is where the passage becomes particularly interesting. The scripture clearly states that the purpose of these revelations is to empower us to FULFILL ALL THE COMMANDMENTS OF THE LAW!

 

No matter your current circumstances, you might feel stagnant and lack progress. Consider seeking God's guidance to uncover the hidden truth relevant to your situation. This will allow you to apply His specific principles to address your concerns.

 

Father, expose and peel back the curtains, allowing me to see spiritually what I was previously ignorant of physically. Father, just as Elisha prayed for his servant, asking you to open his spiritual eyes, I am asking you to open our spiritual eyes to give us the revelation needed to apply your law and release us from the spiritual cages we've found ourselves in.

 

Lord, I echo Elisha's prayer for his servant over my life in the powerful name of Jesus Christ. Indeed, I connect my spirit to this prayer and anticipate similar outcomes for my distressing situation in Jesus' name.

 

Elisha prayed earnestly, saying, "LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see." And with a tender response, the LORD opened the young man's eyes, revealing a breathtaking sight: the mountain was filled with horses and chariots of fire surrounding Elisha" 2 Kings 6:17. It's important to highlight that the chariots of fire were always there; it was just the servant's spiritual eyes that needed to be opened to fully appreciate their presence.

 

God shows no favoritism. If He did it for Elisha's servant, He will undoubtedly do it for you who believe!

God's Ordained Positions Is Where You'll Find Your Provisions

Position: a condition concerning place, location, or situation. Particularly relating to favorable or unfavorable circumstances.

Scripture advises us that God knows the end of all things from their beginning, Isaiah 46:10. Scripture further advises us that God has already blessed us with all spiritual blessings, Ephesians 1:3. Based on the mentioned Biblical facts of God's awareness of what He already has in place for us, then the set times of the manifestation of our preordained provisions is based on His instructions we follow regarding our current and future positions.
After God instructed Elijah to declare a famine over the land, He also directed Elijah that his next position would include his provision during the famine, as recorded in 2 Kings 17:1-5.

Provision is defined as an arrangement or preparation beforehand for the doing of something, the meeting of needs, the supplying of means, etc.

Today, I would like to share some good news with you. God's favor is upon your life, and as a result, provision has been made for that complex, stubborn, and seemingly impossible situation you find yourself in. However, it is important to follow God's instructions to fully participate in this provision and occupy the position assigned to you.

To refresh your memory, even though God instructed Elijah to declare a famine, it did not excuse him from participating. However, God told Elijah to go to the brook Cherith, where he would find his provisions waiting for him. It's important to note that Elijah could accept or reject these crucial instructions. Before we move forward, please say to God, "Lord, please provide me with detailed instructions to my assigned positions where my provisions await me, in the mighty name of Jesus!"

"And it shall be, that thou shall drink of the brook; and I (God) have COMMANDED the Ravens to feed thee THERE!, 2 Kings 17:4.

My friend, hear me as I speak to your spirit this morning, GOD ALMIGHTY HAS ALREADY MADE PROVISION FOR YOUR PRESENT CONDITION, BUT IT'S LOCATED AT YOUR FUTURE POSITION!

"Your priority now should be seeking God's instruction for your next position. Ask Him to guide you towards the right place, location, people, or environment to proceed to. Many of you may struggle unnecessarily because you are in the wrong position waiting on God's provisions."

"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In ALL thy ways, ACKNOWLEDGE him; as a result, He SHALL DIRECT THY PATHS! Proverbs 3:5-6.

YOUR DIVINE POSITION IS INCLUSIVE OF YOUR PROVISION THAT WAS MADE IN ADVANCE OF YOUR PRESENT DISLIKE CONDITION...................

Spirit Led Folks Are Proactive Not Reactive

Don't be reactive; instead, why not choose to be proactive.
In other words, do not wait for trouble or challenges to visit you, and then respond. Instead, you
must take on a proactive spirit and deal with your future problems and challenges in the spirit realm before they manifest in the natural realm!

Most folks who received an adverse doctor's report or their kids encountered trouble. At this point, they want to rally up their prayer partners to launch a counter-attack on the Enemy's camp. Unfortunately, our response is only because of the physical attack. As human beings who reside in a world we share with spirits, we have the unique advantage of calling things that are not in existence and preventing certain things from manifesting in our lives before they happen. This, my friend, is called being reactive.

Everything originates in the spirit world before its existence in our natural or physical world. We can prevent certain spiritual things and events conceived in the spirit world from entering our natural world.

One of the primary ways we do this is by being "PROACTIVE" in our prayers. We do this by canceling and rebuking all evil devices, schemes, and ploys spiritually implemented by Satan and his kingdom before their happenings in our physical world. We can also cancel the plans of the kingdom of darkness before they manifest on the earth by challenging our bad dreams. Our dreams provide a glimpse of activities being conceived either for or against us in the unseen world. Again, in being proactive, we pray by asking God to destroy everything in the spirit realm that the Enemy has planned and conspired against us so that it can not manifest in our lives.

I know of many Christians diagnosed with a particular sickness, and only at this point did they want to "press into God" for a miracle. We all have the advantage of praying against Cancers, Heart disease, diabetes, and any other disease before their manifestation. These diseases, or any other damaging event such as a divorce, premature death, termination from a job, etc., did not begin when the physical events took place physically. Unfortunately, these adverse events were all initiated spiritually, and what is being displayed physically is its manifestation that was never challenged spiritually.

As Believers of Jesus Christ, we MUST change our methods and strategies for engaging in spiritual warfare. The only way this can be achieved. We must adhere to the laws and rules laid out in scripture, such as We are not fighting against flesh and blood and must gear our attention on the spirit world if we intend to be successful in our natural world, according to Ephesians 6:12 and 2 Corinthians 4:18.

Why not let this day be the day you change and implement spiritual warfare's biblical strategies? While you may not be divorced or suffering from some terminal disease, it would undoubtedly be proactive in praying against them to ensure that they never take shape in your life later. Therefore, we must choose life instead of death by being proactive instead of reactive.

"I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live." Deuteronomy 30:19.
