Our Lord Jesus Christ speaks prophecy:
Here I am my brethren, your true “life coach”. The leader of the church, and your personal savior. I strive to teach you the ways of God each day. To turn your minds and attention toward our Father. He is the all knowing creator of life. He will give you all the answers if you will only ask. Learn to still your minds in prayer. Both asking and listening are required. Some answers are easy to receive, like a familiar verse He brings to mind that instructs you. But others are more complex, and come in pieces of information over time and as your understanding grows.
Your spirit is growing and expanding in wisdom and power as you use it. Some Christians have sought to excel and are mighty for God. Some have been His for many years and done little to develop their power and abilities. Be fierce as His mighty warriors. Be strengthened in me as we walk in operating your spirit together. I will teach you ( Ephesians 4:21). I am the head and I am directing your workings and movements. When the mind says to the hand “pick up the sword and slay the dragon”, the body responds. When the mind says “run forward into battle”, the feet move. You have the mind of Christ my people – you can hear my leading as you invite me to be your Lord and master.
I have given you the victory over every attack. This is a battle that has already been won and I am revealing the spoils of war that are yours. Take up your armor and stand at the ready. Your daily fight is with principalities and powers of darkness. Your weapons are the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God you speak. You have the authority to cast out devils in my name, and send them into the wilderness. Your homes and families are protected from the evil attacks as you speak and command the word of God you believe. Do you see it? Are you raising a spiritual fortress about your loved ones and your homes? You proclaim that my blood covers you and yours and you will be untouchable. Raise your fortress walls, lock the gates of your hearts and minds against evil, and speak power and deliverance today.
Today’s Written Word
I Corinthians 14:12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.
Ephesians 3:16 – 20 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
Ephesians 4:20, 21
But ye have not so learned Christ;
If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
I Corinthians 2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
Ephesians 6:11,12
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
A Word of Encouragement
People hire a life coach to help them to learn something. Perhaps to make better choices in their career, or to establish the most optimal exercise routine. It seems silly when you realize that God sent His only begotten Son to be our personal Lord and savior. We have a big brother in Jesus Christ that walks and talks with us each day, and he is the perfect instructor and life coach! He reminds us to look toward God for answers, the creator of all life. To pray more and to get more of God’s powerful word in our minds to overcome every evil principality and power that would seek to harm us. We can speak the word of God and literally cut through the chains of the darkness like a hot sword slicing through butter. Amen!
An Action Item
Knowledge is power. In Hosea 4:6a God says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge,”.
Let’s know more about the power available in the word of God so we can more easily defeat the devils. Let’s seek to excel in spiritual matters by putting more of God’s power-filled words into our mind each day. Let’s open our hearts to our Lord Jesus Christ and invite him in to be our master and to guide us today as he is our perfect life coach. We have the victory over every attack as we walk with him. Eph. 1:21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.
Victories and Blessings
We had a very blessed bunch of Christians at the Bible study on Thursday night. When asked to share any victories or blessings, EVERY person had something to share!
Some highlights were: there were two healings. One woman’s sister shared that she is getting into the word every morning and is just really excited to learn each day. Her husband is also joining her. Another lady had prayed for her son-in-law who had to go to the hospital, and he received a good report from the doctor. Another lady was able to study the Bible with her granddaughter for the first time. And another person had received answers to prayer by way of prophecy and a vision from God. God is so very good all the time, and all the time He is so good!
