Faith Is The Word of God So Pray The Word When You Pray

The blessings and the favor of God will exceed your highest expectation if you allow it! Scripture clearly tells us that God desires to do exceedingly, abundantly, and above all that we could ask or think, according to the power that works in us, Ephesians. 3:20.

With this empirical biblical evidence that reveals it is always God's desire to exceed whatever it is we are asking him for, according to his will, of course. Then why do we make the following prayers: 

"Lord, I am believing for a down payment on a car."
"Lord I am believing you for a down payment on a home"
"Lord, I pray that my kids will get good grades."
"Lord, I pray that you change my husband/wife."
Such prayers reveal precisely where you are in your faith. It is almost as if you're not sure if God will grant you your entire request so you ask for just portions of what you really want. I can assure you that if you were an avid reader and listener of the word of God, such prayers would never leave your lips.

If you believe in prayer, then you must also believe in the word of God that will answer your prayers and most of all you must believe that God wants to do much more than whatever it is you're requesting of him. If this is the case, then your prayers to God must change. For example, this is how one who is confident in the word of God prayers for the above request:

Father God, I believe your word, and I am a believer that your word is faith because your word says that faith comes by hearing but not just hearing anything but specifically hearing the word of God, Romans 10:17. Therefore, I declare your word back to you which is faith concerning my request to you. You said in your word that you will give me houses I did not build and land that I did not labor for, Deut. 6:11, Joshua 24:13. Therefore, I am not asking you for a down payment for my car or home, instead by faith which is your word; I am requesting a debt-free home along with a debt-free car because your word has made it clear to me that you desire to exceed my expectations of you according to Ephesians 3:20.

Father God Almighty, the creator of heaven and earth. Your word declares that it is IMPOSSIBLE to please or satisfy you without faith, Hebrews 11:6. Therefore I am bringing my faith to you which is your word and your word which is my faith says, the seed of the righteous shall be delivered and that the seed of the righteous is blessed, Psalm 112:2, Proverbs 11:21. Again, because I am fully aware that it is always your desire to exceed whatever It is that I request of you according to your will; then I pray your word as it relates to my children and your word says, which again is my faith, "you will increase me more and more me and my children" Psalm 115:14. Therefore, I pray not only for good grades and favor in certain areas of their life. Instead, I pray that they would experience overall blessed lives and that you would deliver them in every area of their lives in the name of your son Jesus Christ.

My friend, hear me loud and clear today. God wants you to remind him of what he's promised you. Speak his word in your prayers because his word is your faith and he's made it crystal clear that it is impossible to please, satisfy, gratify, pacify or even make him content outside of faith which is his word. The lord should hear more of his word in your prayers than whatever your situation maybe because it is ultimately his word that will change your status. He already knows your situation, now he's expecting the only currency that Heaven accepts, and that is the currency of faith, which is his word in exchange for your solution or request.
Have a blessed day while declaring your faith which is the word of God. My word of faith today is: "He that hath knowledge spares his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit" Proverbs 17:27.

There is always a spiritual fight just before your breakthrough

Whenever a breakthrough is on the horizon, frustration and resistance to change tend to be the norm. In fact, if there are no challenges before your breakthrough, it's essential to carefully analyze whether or not what you've labeled a breakthrough is true.

"When people are on fire for God or about to experience positive changes in their lives, they may face severe spiritual opposition and frustration. One of the primary forms of attack they may experience is an overwhelming and frequent sense of fear. For instance, if an individual is claustrophobic (fear of enclosed places), their fear will be amplified and more frequent than usual. The same may happen if they fear heights, insects, or any other phobia."

A person under a spiritual attack may experience relentless thoughts of their fears and evil suggestions from the spirit of fear. This can result in the individual experiencing severe anxiety and panic attacks, even during everyday activities such as public speaking. They may not be aware that they are under a spiritual attack, causing seemingly simple tasks to become problematic.

"If the next phase of a spiritual attack goes unrecognized and unchallenged through prayer and fasting, the victim may become lazy and unable to complete tasks due to procrastination. The victim may believe they are simply feeling overworked, tired, or need a break. However, the reality is that this person is under significant spiritual attack, and part of this attack is to prevent the victim from recognizing the spiritual nature of their situation."

If, at this stage, the victim does not recognize that their root problem is spiritual, then the attack will be upgraded. The victim then begins to experience unusual but consistent bouts of depression. It usually starts with the victim feeling down and gloomy for no apparent reason. The victim will slowly begin to look at life from a negative perspective, experiencing relentlessly thoughts about deceased loved ones and uncannily missing those deceased loved ones. The victim will also experience overwhelming thoughts of death and the afterlife and how they wish their deceased loved ones were alive, such as their Mother, Father, etc., especially when they buck up on life's challenges.

In the next stage, again, if the attack is not recognized and counterattacked from a spiritual perspective, the victim will begin a phase of crying for no apparent reason and slowly start to lose hope in the things and people that once brought them joy. At this stage, spiritual intervention is a must because the next level, which at this point has migrated into severe depression, will then progress into a cycle of demanding suicidal thoughts.

While this may be an old spiritual tactic of the devil, unfortunately, it has become a very successful one for him in overcoming and subduing Christians who lack spiritual understanding. In my many years of observing this cycle of perpetual evil that's being orchestrated and hurled by legions of evil spirits at Christians, it is always the Believer who's more caught up in the physical things of their faith, such as being blessed with a car, house, a wife/husband miracle money, etc. As a result of their deeply embedded approach and view of things from a physical perspective, they are literally sideswiped and overwhelmed when this spiritual attack comes upon them.

However, those who are spiritually minded, for the most part, will almost always recognize and survey their attack from a spiritual perspective and engage in prayer and fasting to overcome this vicious spiritual attack. The bottom line is this: your success or failure during this SPIRITUAL process will solely depend on the spiritual education of the victim. In other words, the enemy will take full advantage of the victim's lack of spiritual knowledge to destroy their victim.

If you are experiencing this vicious cycle of spiritual oppression, know for sure that something good is pending for you, and the attack is clear evidence of that, as well as to prevent it from happening. The purpose of this article is to reveal to you that the origin of this evil attack is spiritual, and therefore, your counterattack must be spiritual, and the most effective way of doing that is through prayer and fasting!

Rebuke negative dreams, they're trying to stop your physical blessings

The Lord has revealed beautiful things that await those who commit to His will through many of His prophets. However, that does not mean that the enemy will roll out a red carpet for us and allow us to retrieve them unchallenged.

Therefore, God has outfitted every human being with the spiritual tool, which is our dream! Yes, you've read correctly; it is our dreams that are constantly giving us a heads-up as to what's pending in the spiritual realm for or against us or revealing the spiritual root behind our physical issues.

The spirits of delay, lateness, setback and stumbling block are assigned by Satan to fight our SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS, to prevent the physical manifestation of our material blessing. For example, let's say you had a dream, and in your dream, you dream that you missed your flight, or in your dream, you saw yourself waiting for someone to pick you up at a particular time, but the person never showed up.

The reality is that your spiritual dream is revealing the spirits of delay and set back fighting you in the spirit realm to prevent you from connecting with what God has put in place for you spiritually that has a fixed period to manifest physically in your life. Make no mistake, the actions and symbols in your dreams, when converted, will always reveal the spirit behind the mystery of what's going on in your life physically.

This is why I insist that you challenge your negative dreams with prayer by rebuking and canceling your negative dreams. By doing this, you are literally rejecting and renouncing any evil covenants that have or were being attempted in your dreams that will give legal grounds to manifest physically in your life.

Words to the wise, the spiritual realm relies on covenants to execute their will in the earth or in the life of a human being. This is so because God has given man and not spirits dominion of the earth according to Genesis 1:26, 28. As such, all spirits need the co-operations of human beings to bless or curse them or anything on the earth.

Constant negative dreams are a clear and conspicuous sign that something good is about to take place in the life of the dreamer. However, whatever that good thing maybe can be hijacked spiritually by evil spirits masquerading as others in their dreams to get the dreamer to ignorantly commit to evil covenant whose sole purpose is to prevent what God has released to them; spiritually with a set date to manifest physically!

As a reminder, because the spirit world is the parent world to our natural world and all things have their origin in the spirit world, all losses or success are conceived in that world and only awaits time to manifest it into our natural world.

Dreaming of Your Haters

Dreaming of Your Haters

Scripture says, "For God speaks repeatedly, though people do not recognize it. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men while they slumber on their beds. Then He opens the ears of men and seals their instruction. That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man" (Job 33:14-16).

The above Scripture makes it abundantly clear that God uses various means to communicate with us. However, for some reason, we often fail to recognize His attempts. Nevertheless, the Scripture says that when other means of communication fail, God can speak to us in our dreams. These dreams provide us with spiritual instruction and allow our enemies to witness our victory over them in the spiritual realm. Building upon this Scripture, I would like to delve deeper into the understanding of dreams and how God can use the dreams of our enemies to communicate His spiritual work concerning our enemies.

In the story of Gideon from Judges 7, God instructed him to prepare the men of Israel for war against their enemies, the Midianites. Gideon started with an army of 32,000 men to fight against the nearly innumerable Midianites. Through God's guidance, Gideon ended up with 300 men for the battle. Understandably, Gideon must have been concerned about how such a small number could defeat their enemies. God knew Gideon's fears and instructed him to go by night into the camp of the Midianites to eavesdrop on their conversation (Judges 7:9-11). Through what Gideon overheard, he was strengthened and encouraged as God revealed that He had already "delivered" the Midianites' host into Gideon's hands.

It is essential to emphasize the word "delivered" here, as it indicates something has already occurred spiritually. God was conveying to Gideon that from a spiritual perspective, Israel had already won the war against the Midianites, even though they had yet to engage in combat. Continuing with this peculiar turn of events, God used the dreams of Israel's enemies, the Midianites, to further validate the already accomplished spiritual victory. Gideon overheard a Midianite telling his companion about a dream in which a loaf of barley bread came tumbling down into the Midianite camp, knocking over a tent (Judges 7:13-15). The companion interpreted the dream as a sign of Gideon's victory over the Midianites. Upon hearing this, Gideon bowed down and worshipped God. He returned to the camp of Israel and announced that the Lord had given them victory over the Midianite camp.

Isn't that amazing? This story shows us that dreams and their interpretations are not limited to Christians, as demonstrated by the involvement of Israel's enemies. Furthermore, dreams have a spiritual dimension that can reveal mysteries and provide insights into our everyday concerns or pending manifestations. As everything visible and invisible originates in the spiritual realm, God made it clear to Gideon that victory had already been determined before the physical battle. Lastly, although it was a positive dream, Gideon did not merely walk away feeling confident based on the dream alone. The Scripture states that after hearing the dream's interpretation, Gideon worshipped God. He agreed with what God had already established in the spiritual realm, which clearly favored Israel.

I often instruct you to cancel and rebuke any negative dreams through prayer upon waking up. No matter what negativity the dream may contain, always remember that dreams have a spiritual nature. Therefore, the enemy attempts to establish a spiritual covenant with the dreamer through such dreams. This is one of the ways negative dreams can manifest in the physical realm. The second way is ignoring, dismissing, or forgetting to rebuke a negative dream. By doing so, the dream can manifest by default. The spiritual law states that if we resist the devil, he must flee (James 4:7). Therefore, if we do not resist him, he will not. In Gideon's case, with the positive dream he had, Gideon followed the same principle. After hearing the dream that revealed Israel's victory, he aligned himself with God's perspective by worshipping Him.

As seen in this teaching, God can allow your haters to witness in you what you may not see for yourself. These same haters can also receive spiritual confirmations about you, which you may have dismissed or failed to understand. Finally, we must align ourselves with our positive dreams, just as we cancel and rebuke our negative ones.

There is a spiritual discipline and protocol to your divine seasons

On the way home today, I observed a few mango trees that were budding already, which of course
indicates that mango season is approaching.

What really caught my attention was the fact that all of the mango trees that I saw today were not located in the same area. In fact they were miles apart from each other. The point I am attempting to get at here is simply this. Each mango tree, even though they are nowhere near each other, are all aware of its season and has already begun the process to produce in their season.

The only thing that was required from these trees, were to weather the elements and allow the ground in which they are planted to supply the nutrients so that when their season arrives it will be automatic for these trees to produce the fruit of mango.

As human beings, God has program us to experience certain seasons. However, just like the mango tree, our seasons are designed for us to produce certain fruits for a particular season, if we weather the elements (challenges of life) and stay grounded in the word.

Psalm 1:2-3, provides a classic illustration of this: "And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he does shall prosper".

Producing our fruit in the seasons assigned to us must follow a spiritual discipline and protocol according to the above scripture. The protocol starts by insisting that we meditate on the scriptures day and night. Not sometimes, not only when troubles arises, not only when we're asked by a Pastor or religious leader to read it. Instead we must take the initiative along with discipline to meditate on the Holy Bible DAY & NIGHT!!!!!!

The result of this discipline according to scripture; has compared us to a tree that is planted by the rivers of water. In other words, meditating on the word DAY & NIGHT becomes the resources that we need that will maintain and sustain us until our specific season comes.

The scripture further adds that he shall bring forth "HIS FRUIT IN HIS SEASON". Therefore I am led to believe according to this scripture that NOT EVERYONE EXPERIENCES THE SAME SEASON AT THE SAME TIME! Each person during the course of their life span has particular seasons assigned to them by God and whatever this person does in their season according to the will of God MUST PROSPER, simply because it is their SEASON TO PROSPER!

I don't know who is reading this post right now, but what I do know is that God has inspired me via his Holy Spirit at 2:55 AM Tuesday 2016, to let you know that your failure to meditate on his word DAY & NIGHT, has caused you to miss your seasons. In fact he said to tell you that your lack of spiritual discipline in not meditating on his word day and night has cause you to seek a short cut in getting to your seasons. In so doing you've allowed so called prophets to mislead you by their false prophecies, asking you to sow financial seeds that will catapult you into your season. This of course has yet to come to pass and never will because it is not the spiritual protocol that will take you into your seasons of fruit and prosperity.

God said to observe those that you know that have and are experiencing their seasons. The common denominator among them is their commitment to his word. God said to tell you that it is his word that conditions you for the seasons he's specifically design for you. To reject or ignore his command to meditate on his word day and night is equivalent to a fruit tree pulling up its roots and decides to reside in a desert place and foolishly anticipating to produce fruit when the season for it to produce arrives.

The word of the lord to whoever is reading this: discipline yourself by meditating on the scriptures day and night. It will be through this process that the spirit of the Lord will realign you to your divine seasons and cause things to turn around for you. Begin today by giving time to God's word.

Your attacks will determine if the word of God truly resides in you

Every attack against a Believer of Jesus Christ, is never an attack against the actual person, instead it
will always be an attack against their FAITH!

The faith of a Believer is the actual word of God that resides in them. Make no mistake, the enemy is not interested in you the individual; instead he's after the word of God which is FAITH!

I am convinced that whenever our faith is tried/tested it is an indicator that we lack patience in the area in which our faith is being tested. As usual let's seek scriptural support in an effort to validate this spiritual understanding:

"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" James 1:3-4.

In the passage of scripture that I have provided below; if you read it from a spiritual perspective you will quickly discover that when the word of God has been retain by a Believer of Jesus Christ, immediately the enemy moves in by any means necessary to hijack the word of God from the possession of that person. However, this same Devil who is primarily after the word of God in you will covertly make the attack appear as if it's against the individual.

The reasoning behind Satan's plan is, he understands spiritual law. He understands that the law clearly says that we wrestle not against flesh and blood (fellow human beings), according to Ephesians 6:12. He also understands that the moment he convinces us that the attack against us is human based, he also knows that we are in direct violation of that spiritual law and rather than channeling our faith against him, we instead use all physical means necessary to challenge the person or what we think to be the physical source attacking us. This is why folks give up on their faith in God. They believe that once the enemy comes at them, then God should automatically come up against the enemy. The reality is we must engage God through prayer and his word. At the same time we must cement into our understanding that there is always a spirit behind our physical attacks.

the scriptures says, "This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. 13 Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. 14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop" Luke 8:11-15

Again, read the above scripture with spiritual understanding, understanding that Satan is after the WORD OF GOD AND NOT THE INDIVIDUAL, the individual is just a part of the war because he or she is a possessor of the word of God. In other words, if you're not being attacked by Satan and his agents then I strongly suggest you revisit if the word of God truly resides in you!

Identifying the spirit via its behavior and actions in the natural

Some time ago I met a man that shared with me how his teenage son had a serious issue with lying. He went on to say how his son would tell lies for the simplest things. He said that even though he would punish his son in every way possible to detour his son's inability, to tell the truth; it seems as if nothing was working.

It was more than clear to me that this man was beyond frustrated and very close to the point of giving up on his son. Well, just before he could continue his story about his son, I immediately interrupted him and blatantly asked him if he ever had an issue with lying. The gentleman looked at me with a puzzled face and his head slightly turned, apparently trying to figure out how he would answer me. Before he could answer, I sternly said to him, that to address his son's issues I would need him, to be honest with his reply.

Well, just as I expected, his answer was yes he did have issues with lying. I in turn said, are you currently having issues"? "Yes!"  He replied. I began to explain to this gentleman that as long as he continues to address his son's issue with lying from a physical angle and at the same time not addressing his own problems with this same "SPIRIT," then things will only get progressively worse. "What does a spirit have to do with what I am telling you," the gentleman said. For the record folks, this gentleman has been a Christian over 17 years.

Again a Christians first level of understanding his or her physical/natural issues is to always discover its root. I promise you its root will always be spiritual. This, of course, is determined by the action or behavior of the person or the environment that's producing such behavior. In the case mentioned above with the gentleman and his son. He is completely unaware (a lack of knowledge) that he's dealing with two spiritual items and they are 1) A lying spirit and 2) a generational curse of lying that's giving this spirit the legal right to torment this family. In both cases, the counter attack must be spiritual (prayer and or fasting, etc.). Overall there was a spirit, a lying spirit in this case that was going unchallenged in the lives of this family simply because of the ignorance of the knowledge of this spirit. Again, the root cause of folks destruction and failures will always be due to a lack of knowledge. Let's look at scripture to bring clarity to this mystery.

In 1 Kings 22:19-22, a prophet by the name of Micaiah prophesied the defeat of Israel. Surprisingly in his prophetic words, he unveils some other spiritual truths,  "And he said, Hear thou, therefore, the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left. And there came forth a "SPIRIT," and stood before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. And the Lord said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a "LYING SPIRIT” in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade him, and also prevail: go forth, and do so".

There are two very important revelations that we can take away from this text and they are: 1) The purpose of spirits is to persuade or influence humans and 2) A spirit is always the root cause behind consistent negative issues. Therefore the reality is a spirit cannot be challenged or eradicated by physically punishing or hurting someone. Instead, a spirit can only be subdued and removed via spiritual warfare, which will consist of prayer, fasting, praise, and worship, etc. simply because these are the spiritual weapons that are used in spiritual warfare.

I told this gentleman to re-approach his situation with his son beginning with himself asking God to break the generational curse of lying that is fueling the spirit of lying in his life and by extension his son's life. I further advised him to saturate his prayers with scriptures about his matter. Well, it was months later that our paths collided once again. The gentleman explained to me that not only has there been a massive improvement in his son' s behavior but his ability to be upfront and honest in his everyday life is beyond belief. He told me that he had shared the principles I explained to him from the Bible to others who have had similar results with other issues in their lives.

Friends, I really want you to hear me today in your spirit. I had counsel and met with countless individuals that have been saved (Christians) for years, and they are completely ignorant of the spirit world along with the laws and principles that govern it. As a result, even though they are 20, 30, 40 years in their Christian journey they are still facing and battling the same issues they had before their conversion to Christianity. This has brought me to the conclusion that you could carry the title of Christian but still remain in bondage. This has also made me acutely aware that the quality of our lives will not improve because we are Christians. Instead, the quality of our lives will be due to the application of the laws of God which is found in the Holy Scriptures.

The spirit realm is real and it is the origin of all things. God has given us a book that teaches us to master this domain to attain and maintain success in our natural world. My word of wisdom to you is simply this. If you insist on remaining ignorant to the realm of the spirit, then you are indeed cosigning with your spiritual adversaries to defeat you in the natural.
