Believe it – Accept It

Believe it, My Child, I’m working to increase your faith. And I never give up on My children. So don’t give up on yourself. Your victory is coming. In fact, your victory is here today. Believe it.

Lord, increase my faith. Because I’m afraid, I’ll just repeat the same old patterns.

Child don’t be afraid. Just know I am with you Because I will help you and strengthen you. I’ll work out all things, even your mess ups. In fact, I’m going to use them for your good.

How Lord? I feel like a failure.

Child, you are not a failure, just a struggler learner. But know this, I am here to help you and I will lead you along the way until you find your victory. For I am your victory.

Lord, I’m talking to you now. I’ve found you, but not victory. Because I’m still walking in defeat.

Child, look up for I am your victory. If you found Me, you’ve found victory.

But Lord, why am I still walking in defeat? Why am I so easily defeated? It seems every day I walk in defeat.

Child, that’s because Satan has placed a veil over your eyes to keep you from seeing your victory. He also whispers in your ear, “Failure, failure, you’re a failure.” And you listen to those words.

But know this, My child, Satan is a lair. I am truth. And if I say you are victorious, then it is so.

But Lord, it doesn’t look like victory to me.

Child, what are you looking at? Because you’re not looking at Me. That’s for sure. So how many times do I have to tell you, I am not a performance-based God. Instead, I am a forgiving God of love and acceptance.

After all, I died for you and all others too. You are covered by My blood. I am victory. Therefore, you have victory. Believe it. Accept it.

Now don’t look at what you see. Instead look at Me. Then you’ll see victory.

Believe it!

But Lord, why am I so defeated by my foolish ways?

Child, I have come to set you free. Accept it. Believe it.

Know this, I have all the faith, strength, peace, and love for you in my hand. Therefore, accept it. Believe it. I love you and therein is your victory, not your performance and not your own striving to follow all the rules, not the rules you created for yourself, or the rules placed on you by others.

After all, I have come to set you free. So, rejoice and accept your freedom and your victory.

Lord, I don’t know what to do.

Child, come to Me. Allow Me to shower you with My acceptance and love just as you are, warts and all. Accept it, believe it. Because I am reaching for you. Reach for Me.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Now don’t look at what you see. Instead look at Me. Then you’ll see victory.

But Lord, why am I so defeated by life? Why am I so defeated by my stupid selfish ways?

Child, I have come to set you free. Accept it. Believe it! In fact, I have faith and strength, peace and love for you in My hand. Accept it. Believe it.

Because I love you. There is your victory, my love, not your performance, and not your striving to follow all the rules. After all, these rules you created for yourself, or that placed on you will not give you victory.

I have come to set you free. So, rejoice and accept your freedom and your victory.

Child, you are not defeated, you are victorious. Accept My Words, Believe it! Speak to yourself, “I am victorious.” I created all with My words. My Spirit is within you. Therefore, use your words and My Word to speak forth your victory.

Everyday speak My words into your words. Therein is victory, My Words in your mouth.

Surrender Is The Key

Child, surrender is the key to victory and prosperity. As you surrender yourself, your heart, your dreams, and your desires I will bless you.

But Lord, I don’t know what to write.

Child, I’ll give you the words to speak, but first you must surrender all. You must feed yourself of My Holy Spirit. Before you can help others, you must first feed yourself My Word and My Presence.

Yes Sir.

Just as on a plane, the parent should put on their oxygen mask first. Then put the mask on the child next. So feed yourself and take in the breathe of My Holy Spirit. Because of Me, your victory is assured.

So take in the breathe of My Holy Spirit, My Presence first, and before all else. Then you can help others. Feed on My Word and My Presence. Then you will receive power to defeat your enemies, especially your greatest enemy, Satan.

After all, his desire is to keep you defeated and discouraged. So feed on My Word and My Presence, My Holy Spirit, for therein you will find power.

Now My Child, it’s time to clean up your own backyard, your eating habits, your heart, and your attitudes. So quit worrying about the future. Take one day at a time, one day. Make it your goal to seek My will and then follow My will. For what good is it if you ask for advice and then never follow it?

So your focus should be surrender first. Then look to Me for your instructions. Next, follow how I lead you. Surrender is the key to your victory and a successful life of victory.

Surrender. Look to Me and listen for instructions. Follow, trust, and obey how I lead you. After all your job is not a quota. Your job is surrender. That’s your focus, surrender, the first key to unlock your victory.

Yes Sir.

Child, keep your eyes on Me and your heart surrendered to me. Let go of all that is in your hand. Then open your hand to receive what I have for you. It’s beyond your expectation. Keep your eyes on Me.

As you surrender to My will (especially your food), I will make you stronger. As you let go, I will increase your strength. Now let go.

Yes Sir.

Let go of it all and come before Me, completely surrendered and empty of all that clutters your heart, and your mind. Allow Me to fill you with Myself.
Quit wishing for more time and accomplish what I tell you to do, in the time I give you.

Because I’ll give you all the time you need to accomplish all, each and every task I assign you. So seek My will each day. Then watch and see what I will do with your time. I can multiply it.

Your key to success is surrender. So therefore, surrender yourself and all you are, all your dreams, desires, and wishes. Surrender your all to Me. Then watch and see what I do.

And quit trying to figure everything out. Just focus on surrender. As you take each step in complete surrender, I’ll lead you to your own personal victory.

So My Child, quit trying on your own. Give it all to Me.

Yes sir. Lord, take it. Take me. I give myself to thee. Do with me as your wish.

Child, do not fear for I am with you. Surrender is the Key.
