Child, you have the power of the Holy Spirit within you. Now awaken`, for you have the power to say ‘No’ to temptation, and defeat. You have the power to say ‘Yes’ to overcoming and resisting, to say ‘Yes’ to the victory I have for you. Continue reading

Be strong, My Child.
Lord, does my overeating take away the power of my prayers?
No, My child. It takes away the power of your faith in your prayers.
That’s why Satan works so hard to keep you defeated and ashamed. Because it damages your faith, which in turn, takes away the power of your prayers.
I see. Lord, I never knew.
Child, without faith you have no power. Instead you’re defeated and ashamed. That’s why Satan works so hard at tempting My children. His goal is to destroy the power of their faith.
So be strong, My child.
(Accuser: Yes, people all over the world are struggling for life and you’re defeated by pleasure food. What a weak, wimpy Christian you are. You’ll never be strong. Because you can’t resist your pleasure foods.)
My Child, don’t listen to the Accuser. For I am your strength and I am your power. And you can do all things through My power. Because I am your strength and I will strengthen you.
This whole week you’ve allowed Satan to defeat you. But today is the day you will celebrate My victory, the victory I have already planned for you.
Therefore as you yield yourself to Me and walk in My strength, you’ll find new strength. Today, you will have a rebirth of My strength and My power within you.
So declare today a day of victory. I say it again, “Declare today a day of victory.”
For victory is Mine, saith the Lord. Yes, I’ll say it again, “Victory is Mine.”
Therefore be strong My child and walk in the victory I have already planned for you.
Yes Lord, I declare today is a new day of victory.
Today focus on My Presence. Focus on worship. So sing over your victory, for I sing over you.
As you seek My will and My guidance for each day, I will lead you. After all, I have your victory in My hand. And I will infuse you with My strength and My power to resist temptation.
In fact, I infuse you with My power as you yield yourself to Me.
So be strong, My child. For I am celebrating your victory now.

He gives power to the weak, and strength to the powerless. Isaiah 40:29 NLT
But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31 NKJV

Let the weak say, “I am strong.” Joel 3:10 NKJV
Seek My answers, Child.
Lord, I know You’re the answer to all.
But Child, you do not seek My answers.
Lord, I thought I did. I’m so confused.
Child, listen to Me.
So Lord, what do I do?
To begin with Child, seek My Presence first. Then listen as I speak to your heart. Seek My answers to all your questions. Also spend time reading My Word, for you will find many answers there as well. Continue reading
Child, let the weak say, “I am strong.”
Lord, I am weak.
Child, let the weak say, “I am strong.”
Lord, I can’t.
Child, you’re right. You can’t. But let the weak say, “I am strong.”
Lord, if I said, “I am strong”, then I’d be lying.
Child, did you invite Me into your heart?
Then let the weak say, “I am strong”. For I Am strong and I Am in your heart. So let the weak say, “I am strong”.
Lord, I don’t know what to do. It seems I’ve failed at all my attempts for victory.
Child, you lost 90 pounds on My eating plan for you. Then you lost 40 pounds on your plan. I don’t call that failure. I call that success.
What was gained back I call struggle. My child, you are in a struggle and a fight.
But let the weak say, “I am strong”. Because of My power within you- you have all the strength you need to defeat this giant of food addiction in your life.
How do you think it looked to little David before the great giant? Let the weak say, “I am strong.”
Lord, I feel as though I am drowning in a sea of junk food.
Child, changing habits is hard. But I am with you.
Lord, I feel like such a wimp. So many are suffering so much. It looks so bad for so many, and here I am whining to You about my food issues.
Child, I see you. And I see them too. I see all. And I am helping each one with their struggles. Know that I care about each one no matter what level of struggle they are dealing with.
To the greater need, I provide greater strength and peace. I surround them with My love and My Presence. But I do the same with you as well.
Lord, I feel so stupid and insignificant.
Child, you are important to Me. I have a specific plan for you and your life. In fact I intend to help you fulfill and achieve victory. Yes, I have victory planned for you.
In fact, I have victory planned for each one of Mine. Some have greater victories. Some have smaller victories. But I have victories planned for each one.
Lord, I don’t understand.
Child, it is not necessary that you understand. But it is necessary that you trust Me. Now, let the weak say, “I am strong”.
Alright Lord, I am strong.
Say I Am Strong
. . . Let the weak say I am strong. Joel 3:10 NKJV
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13 NKJV
He will keep you strong to the end so that you will be free from all blame on the day when our Lord Jesus Christ returns. 1 Corinthians 1:8 NLT
What a wonderful God we have- He is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the source of every mercy and the One who so wonderfully comforts and strengthens us in our hardships and trials. . . . 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 TLB
He’s Never Giving up on you.
Child, I’m not giving up on you. So don’t you give up on you.
Lord, I need Your help. I feel as though I’m emerging from a drunk. (Note: This was written in my prayer journal, Feb. 2020.) So I’m now praising God for my victory – lost 35 pounds. Praise You Lord.
God has your victory in His Mind.
Child, you are . . . a food drunk. Now sober up, get up, and wash your face. What’s done is yesterday. Now get up from your bed of self-wallowing. Get up, wash your face and go forth in your new assignment from me.
Lord, again I ask forgiveness for the same old sin that comes back over and over. I ask forgiveness for yesterday’s drunken stupor.
Child, I forgive you. Now get up out of this squalor and go forth for I have many plans for you, plans for a hope and a future, plans not to harm you (or punish you), but rather plans to prosper you.
Child, I’ve already told you I’m not giving up on you.
Lord, I’m sorry I keep returning to the feeding bucket. How can I be so stupid?
Yes Child, you love food. But I am going to remove that love from your heart. You will love Me more than your necessary food. I have plans for you and it’s not for you to gain weight or be addicted to food.
No, instead it’s for you to go forth in My assignments. You know, the ones I have planned for you.
There are many assignments ahead, people’s lives for you to touch, talk with, and connect with their hearts. They will touch your heart. Right now, your heart can’t connect due to being satiated with food.
Lord, please forgive me.
Child, I already have. Through all of this you are learning.
So Lord, will I ever get it right?
Yes My Child, you will. But be aware. After gluttony leaves, then pride comes forth. That’s exactly what help to cause your downfall before, pride.
But know this, I have victory over both, over all. So therefore come to Me. Allow Me to rule over you, both your spirit and your stomach.
Yes Lord. Here I am. Take me. I give myself to You. Thank you for not giving up on me.
Child, I’ll never give up on you. Never. After all, I died on that cross just for you. Yes, even for you.
He’s Never Giving Up On You
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. Romans 8:37 NKJV
. . . Keep on working to complete your salvation, and do it with fear and trembling. Yes, God is working in you to help you want to do what pleases Him. Then He gives you the power to do it. Philippians 2: 12, 13 ICB

Lord, I’ve become entangled in food addiction again. I’ve been in this trap of defeat for several years now. Really all my life I have struggled with my weight and food addiction.
What’s humiliating is that after You healed me with a weight loss miracle of losing 90 pounds in 2014, I backslid. Yes, in 2017, I backslid and regained 30 0f those pounds.
Although I’ve maintained a weight loss of 60 pounds, I’m ashamed of regaining those 30 pounds. And now I’ve lost & regained the same 10 pounds over & over since 2020.
Lord, I wanted to help others defeat their food addiction, compulsive overeating, binge eating, gluttony, and bloating misery. But how can I help others when I, myself, am entangled in food addiction again?
Yes, here I am now due to my own wrong choices of yesterday. Lord, would You help me again to climb out of this hellhole of my own creation?
I have no strength to resist temptation, but I do want to help others climb out of their hellholes of food addiction. So how can I help them?
Child, I’m full of Almighty power- stronger than any other source. I am ALL power, stronger than your electricity and more powerful than lightening.
Don’t you think I have the power to defeat your food compulsions?
Yes Lord.
Then My Child, why don’t you come to Me first, before you put anything in your mouth- including your gum. As you chew your gum, practice thanking Me for your victories. When you chew your food, talk to Me.
As a matter of fact, even before you look at your food, talk to Me first about it. Talk to Me about all your concerns.
Talking to Me will bring you peace, henceforth destroying your need to stress eat. For then you’ll be stress praying instead of stress overeating.
Talking with Me will calm your spirit and mind, henceforth destroying the need for emotional eating. For then you’ll be emotional praying. And I will heal your emotions and fill you Myself with a calm and peaceful spirit. Wouldn’t that be better for you instead of a stuffed, bloated belly?
Talking with Me would bring you the pleasure of My sweet Presence, henceforth destroying the power of pleasure food temptations. And then you’d be experiencing the greatest sweet pleasure of life, My Presence surrounding you and within you.
When you’re full of My Presence, then you’re also full of My power and strength. Overall, you’d be full of My peace and My love.
Temptations would no longer defeat you for then you’d be walking in My power and My strength.
Now what do you choose, My Child?
Lord, I choose You. I want You. I want to be free, not entangled in food addiction. But Lord, I’m so weak. Would You help me, even though I backslid due to my own bad choices?
Child, the more of your time you spend in My Presence, the stronger you’ll become. You’ll be walking in My power.
Now come to Me for I love you. And I long to give you victory throughout all your life. As a matter of fact I long to grant all of My children victory over sin, shame and defeat.
I intend for all of My children to live victorious forevermore. For I AM victory. So all of Mine will be victorious too, as they seek to follow Me.
Lord, I’ve let myself become entangled again in food addiction by my own wrong choices. Please set me free from this prison, the one I created for myself. Help me make wise choices that will honor you.
