A Life of Victory

Lord, will I ever achieve a life of victory? Continue reading A Life of Victory

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 You Have The Power

Be Strong, My Child

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.

Feed On This

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

In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones. Proverbs 3:6-8 NKJV

Let the weak say, “I am strong.” Joel 3:10 NKJV

Be strong in the Lord — There are no perfect people, but God has already planned for your victory.

Seek My Answers, Child

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 Seek My Answers, Child

Say I am Strong

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?

Yes Sir.

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

SUFFERING INNOCENTS

The suffering innocents, Lord, what about them?

I hear and listen to their cries. Know this, My child, upon their last earthly breath, they are immediately gathered into the safety of My loving tender bosom. Know this, My child, once I have them, I reward them in paradise so immensely that they can only rejoice in eternal happiness as they release their pain into the sea of forgetfulness.

Listen For My Voice

Listen for My voice, seek My guidance. Remember at times, My voice at times is a still, quiet voice. Listen for My voice, Child. Even though there is much noise around, you can still listen. If you focus, listen, trust, and obey, then I’ll lead you to your victory.

I will never give up on you or the victory I have planned for you. So you never give up, My child, for I have great plans coming forth, plans for your victory.

Oh Lord! Thank you, but at times I put my face down in the feeding trough. Am I stupid?

No, My child. . . .just. . .

What Lord? What am I then? Is it Your voice I’m hearing? Am I weird?

No, My child, just backslidden into your old ways.

Lord, I’m in a trap of my own making. How can I stop this binge eating? I do good for several days, then I return to the slop jar over and over. How can I stop?

Child, come to Me before eating anything. Drink your water and come to Me.

Lord, will I ever stop?

Yes, when you start coming to Me.

Lord, I thought I heard You correctly when I ordered this program.

You did hear Me correctly. But when you’re into our food pleasure, your ears are closed due to your will to overeat.

Lord, is there any hope for me? It seems I have no self-control at all.

Child, I am your hope. And I intend to make you strong.

Lord, renew my mind. Make it yours.

FEED ON THIS

So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. . . 1 Peter 1:14 NLT

So humble yourselves under the mighty power of god, and at the right time He will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you. 1 Peter 5:6,7 NLT

Then He added, “Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.’ For I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.” Matthew 9:13 NLT

He’s Never Giving Up!

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.

He's never giving up — God is never giving up on you.

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

He’s Never Giving Up

He’s Never Giving up on you.

Child, I’m not giving up on you. So don’t you give up on you.

God has your victory in His Mind.

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’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?

No, instead it’s for you to go forth in My assignments. You know, the ones I have planned for you.

Child, I’ll never give up on you. Never. After all, I died on that cross just for you. Yes, even for you.

Turn Your Focus Back to Me

Child, turn your focus back to Me. Seek My Presence. You’ve asked for a quiet, still life. and yes, that’s nice. But you can have My Presence even in the mist of extreme busyness. Do you think only those with “quiet, still lives” experience My Presence?

Not so, it’s those who seek Me even in the midst of their extreme busy lives. Know that I am with those who seek Me. So, if you miss My Presence, it is not I who left. Rather, it was you who turned your eyes to other things.

Even good things are useless if they cause you to divert your eyes from My love. It’s called “busy work”. Satan loves busy work. Because it keeps you so occupied that you focus on the task or whatever it is at hand and turn your eyes, your attention, even your heart from seeking My Presence.

So Lord, how do I correct this?

Turn to Me, seek My Presence, seek My opinion, and seek My advice. In general, talk to Me about everything in your life.

Okay Lord. But what about my weight?

Focus on My Presence — It is through My Presence that you will find your victory.

Ahhhh . . . another issue. Again I tell you seek My advice. Stop before you eat anything, even the foods you consider healthy. Stop first and seek My advice before eating anything. Then watch and see what I will do. This is nothing new to you. We’ve done this routine before.

Yes Lord, we have. But I backslid. Now look at me, a backslider.

Child, stop. Now you aren’t looking at Me. Rather, you are looking at yourself. Didn’t I just say “Keep your eyes on Me, seek My advice, then watch and see what I will do?”

Yes Sir. So what about my eating plan for today?

It is good.

Lord, what about tonight? What’s your will for me tonight? Do I go visit my friend? Should I go shopping instead? Should I call her? Lord, what do I do? Where do I go?

Child, I will lead you. You’re concerned about too many things. Your main job is to focus on Me. Seek My Presence first, over and above all else.

Okay Lord, lead me. Help me to please You in all I do, all I say, all I think, and even what I eat. Renew my heart and my mind. Make them Yours. Help me focus on what You want me to focus on- Your will and Your love.
