Good Morning!

 

We are in the process of finding out where FEAR comes from, how to RESIST it, and how to stay FREE from it!  The Holy Spirit has given us the "format" on how to stand against ALL devices of the enemy, and it is this~~~~READ     SPEAK     RECEIVE, so we are going to apply this to each and everything that was listed in my last Friday's Encouragement.  Since the first one is FEAR, allow me to share something with you before we get into the "format".  FEAR is a "spirit", an evil "spirit", and we have not been given a "spirit" of FEAR..therefore, it is not on the inside of us!  It comes from the "outside" and wants to get "on" us!  If you will get hold of the TRUTH about this evil "spirit", then the devil will not be able to convince you that there is nothing that you can do about it!  Watch the "words of your mouth"!  Do not ever say something like..."I am afraid that I might lose my job" or "I am afraid that I will get the Flu", or "I am afraid that my children may get in with the wrong crowd", or "I am afraid that we are not going to be able to pay all of our bills this month", or whatever you might be afraid of....DO NOT LET THAT COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!

 

READ:   2 Timothy 1:7    Luke 10:19    Romans 5:5     1 John 4:18    1 Corinthians 2:16

 

SPEAK:  (making it "personal")   God has not given me a spirit of fear, but He has given me POWER, LOVE, and a SOUND MIND!  Do the same with the other four scriptures.

 

RECEIVE:     say,  "Thank you Father, that you have not given me a spirit of fear!  Thank you that you have given me power over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means HARM me!  Thank you that you have put Your love in my heart and that love will cast out all fear.  Thank you for giving me the mind of Christ so that I can think like He thinks"!

 

Now when fear tries to come on you, make the devil listen to you saying this~~~~"I do NOT have FEAR!   But, let me tell you what I DO have....I have the LOVE of God in my heart that "evicts" all fear from my household!  I have POWER over you and you cannot harm me or mine!  I also have a calm, undisturbed, sound MIND"!

 

If you will do this and say this, then precious ones....you are being "Covenant- minded" and you are talking "Covenant-talk! 

 

I will not be sending out any messages until after the Holidays.  This is a busy time of the year for most everyone, and I am going to be spending a lot of time in prayer and preparation for all the new things that The Lord is wanting to do in the "New Year"!  I will be back on the first Monday in January.  The Lord will continue to address the "list" I sent on the 10th of December, but He also has so much more in store for us in this upcoming New Year!!
