I’ve come to a place in my life that if I don’t declare and believe God for greater things to come for my future…without that hope…I’d drown in this life.
I’ve had great monumental triumphs with God in my life, but I’ve also had many tragedies and disappointments of my past, this passing year of 2015…And now more than ever…I have to know…without a shadow of a doubt…God is for me…He has a plan for me…His Plan is For My Good…And in spite of what HAS occurred, what is occurring or the things unforeseen in the near future…I have to believe…like my life depended on it…against every fiber of my being…There is More… So until I see the more…I have to fight…I will decree, declare and speak those things that are not, as though they are until my change comes….This is my life!
These are the scriptures the Lord has been ministering to me. I will include various interpretations:
—————————————————————————
Philippians 4:4 (NIV)
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
Philippians 4:6(MSG)
Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. LET PETITIONS AND PRAISES SHAPE YOUR WORRIES INTO PRAYERS, letting God know your concerns.
Philippians 4:6-7(NLT)
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and THANK HIM for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:8-9(NLT)
One final thing. FIX YOUR THOUGHTS on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise…Then the God of peace will be with you.
2 Timothy 2:9
…the word of God cannot be chained.
Habakkuk 2:2-4 (NKJV)
Then the Lord answered me and said:
“Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. 4…But the just shall live by his faith.
Habakkuk 2:2-14 (MSG)
2-3 And then God answered: “Write this.
Write what you see. Write it out in big block letters so that it can be read on the run.
This vision-message is a witness pointing to what’s coming. It aches for the coming—it can hardly wait!
And it doesn’t lie. If it seems slow in coming, wait. It’s on its way. It will come right on time.
4 “Look at that man, bloated by self-importance— full of himself but soul-empty.
But the person in right standing before God through loyal and steady believing is fully alive, really alive.
Romans 4:17 (NKJV)
17…God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;
Ezekiel 37:1-14 (MSG)
1-2 God grabbed me. God’s Spirit took me up and set me down in the middle of an open plain strewn with bones. He led me around and among them—a lot of bones! There were bones all over the plain—dry bones, bleached by the sun.
3 He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I said, “Master God, only you know that.”
4 He said to me, “Prophesy over these bones: ‘Dry bones, listen to the Message of God!’”
5-6 God, the Master, told the dry bones, “Watch this: I’m bringing the breath of life to you and you’ll come to life. I’ll attach sinews to you, put meat on your bones, cover you with skin, and breathe life into you. You’ll come alive and you’ll realize that I am God!”
7-8 I prophesied just as I’d been commanded. As I prophesied, there was a sound and, oh, rustling! The bones moved and came together, bone to bone. I kept watching. Sinews formed, then muscles on the bones, then skin stretched over them. But they had no breath in them.
9 He said to me, “Prophesy to the breath. Prophesy, son of man. Tell the breath, ‘God, the Master, says, Come from the four winds. Come, breath. Breathe on these slain bodies. Breathe life!’”
10 So I prophesied, just as he commanded me. The breath entered them and they came alive! They stood up on their feet, a huge army.
11 Then God said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Listen to what they’re saying: ‘Our bones are dried up, our hope is gone, there’s nothing left of us.’
12-14 “Therefore, prophesy. Tell them, ‘God, the Master, says: I’ll dig up your graves and bring you out alive—O my people! Then I’ll take you straight to the land of Israel. When I dig up graves and bring you out as my people, you’ll realize that I am God. I’ll breathe my life into you and you’ll live. Then I’ll lead you straight back to your land and you’ll realize that I am God. I’ve said it and I’ll do it. God’s Decree.’”
——————————————————————————
There is power in what we prophesy over our lives. I prophesied in what I wanted to see in my husband, my kids and my future so long ago and it came to pass. There are times God answers our prayers quickly…there are times when God wants us to persevere and fight for what we’re believing Him for.
I want some things from God. I want to see the promises of God for my life and family’s life unfold… SO…I’m going to work the word until I see my change come. I’m fighting for my life and my future. Sometimes, this is what God is looking for from us until he moves us into the promise. How bad do you want it? He wants to see that in us…how bad we want His will and His promises and He wants us to fight for it.
I want to be 145 pounds, I’m going to speak that and be diligents in working towards that. I want to write a book. I have to speak that and work towards that. I want to be financially stable and thriving. I have to speak that and work diligently towards that.
Whatever it is you”re praying for…Speak the Word over that thing, that dream, that desire, that prayer, that goal, whatever it is…FIGHT!…SPEAK LIFE!…SPEAK BLESSINGS!…DON’T STOP UNTIL YOUR CHANGE COMES!…WE WON’T STOP UNTIL OUR CHANGE COMES.
The Lord Says:
Jeremiah 1:12(NIV)
…for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled.”
Isaiah 55:8-11 (MSG)
8-11 “I don’t think the way you think. The way you work isn’t the way I work.”
God’s Decree.
“For as the sky soars high above earth, so the way I work surpasses the way you work, and the way I think is beyond the way you think. Just as rain and snow descend from the skies and don’t go back until they’ve watered the earth,Doing their work of making things grow and blossom,
producing seed for farmers and food for the hungry,
So will the words that come out of my mouth (and will) not come back empty-handed. They’ll do the work I sent them to do,
they’ll complete the assignment I gave them.
This song speaks so much life into me. I use this song to pray, speak life and sing over the people in my prayer book for God’s mighty resurrecting power to breathe new life over them, their lives and circumstances:
