Lord, as I look back on my life and now as I look at my body, I see all the failures of the past!
(My child, I see you as My creation, “the finished product, perfect in every way”! I am in the process of shaping you into who I want, a “vessel of My Holy Spirit” walking forth in My Presence, showing forth evidence of My Power, and showing forth My Victory in your life! My child, I give unto you, “Hope”, renewed, reawakened “Hope”!)
— Therefore I will look to the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me. Micah 7:7 NKJV
— The righteousness cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit. Psalm 34:17-18 NKJV
Lord, what is the goal for my life?
(. . . .To walk humbly before Me.)
— He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6:8 NKJV
(. . . . to seek My Presence, and to eat in submission to My will, for I will fill you with the good. My child, I am going to deliver you from the bondage of this stronghold! You will not live a life of defeat, especially from cake and ice cream! You will instead live a life of victory, for you are My child and My children live in victory!
— Yes, and the Lord will deliver me from every evil attack and will bring me safely into His heavenly Kingdom. All glory to God forever and ever! Amen. II Timothy 4:18 NLT
( Your eyes are not looking unto Me, instead you are looking at the “food”. My child, how many times have I told you, “Don’t look at what you see, instead look at Me, for I am ‘All’ that you need!” My child, today will be a day of victory for you! You will behold the victory in My hand. Take it, My child, behold now, “the gift of victory”!)
Oh Lord, thank you! I don’t want to overeat! I don’t want most of my pleasure to come from food! I want most of my pleasure to come from You and Your Presence! Oh, Thank you Lord!
— Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. Philippians 1:6 NKJV
Oh thank you Lord, for this assurance! Thank you!
(My child, you will have the victory!)
