A Call to Fast

Prophetic Perspectives. A Call to FAST

Think it not strange that the Lord calls the leader of the state to declare a fast. Think it not strange to join the fast and pray for your State, Nation, and World.

It was not strange for Queen Esther to call for a fast for 3 days.  She and all of her handmaidens went on a three day fast to save her people.  The entire nation of Israel was marked for death.

Esther 4:16   Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish. 

Esther and her handmaidens took a stance along with all the Jewish people in the country and for 3 days and 3 nights they neither ate nor drank.  Here we are in 2020 with a virus that has been loosed in the land and is wreaking havoc on the people.  Our Governor (state leader) has declared a fast during our lunch time. 

God is no respecter of persons if He did it for Esther surely, He can do it for Louisiana.  Let us join our Faith together and Fast and Pray.

Fortify

What is fortify and how do I successfully establish this in my home.

A couple of months ago the Holy Spirit said FORTIFY.  I was like what do you mean LORD. Fortify what?  HE spoke again saying Fortify.  So, I sat still and began to listen to what the Holy Spirit was telling me.  He said Fortify everything.

So, I began with defining fortify so that I had a clear and complete understanding of what the Holy Spirit was telling me.

Fortify according to the dictionary defined it as a verb – to strengthen a place with defensive mechanisms to protect it from attacks.  Another definition defining Fortify was to invigorate a person mentally or physically or a building or a place by restoration, reviving, refreshing, or rejuvenating it.  This reminded me of Nehemiah and the defenses of Jerusalem.

How to fortify your home:

You must first identify all breaches in your home.  Once you have identified where you have holes, cracks, and gaps in your walls you make preparation to repair them.   Now you must assess what supplies you will need (The WORD) to repair them. Determine whether you need some patch work (Confessions) or do I need to repair a section, by strengthening the entire wall and you rebuild by using (Fasting and Praying) by the word of the Lord.

How to fortify your family’s health:

You must identify the areas in your family’s lives where the enemy has taken ground.  Once you know where the enemy has taken ground in your Children and your Spouse you prepare yourself with the word of God to go and repair those areas.  Where health is a concern you combat sickness and disease with health, healing and wholeness scriptures for example by his stripes I am healed.  The Lord sent his word and healed them from all disease and destruction, or healing is the children’s bread that is our portion.  These are some of the scriptures you can use to go after those areas with the word of God. It is important that we arm ourselves with the sword of the spirit which is the Word of God.

How to fortify your finances:

Fortifying your finances is a must too, attacks on your finances must be strengthened with the word of God. Using scriptures like there is no lack in the Kingdom of God.   Isaac sowed in a famine and reaped a hundredfold, my God shall supply All my needs in riches in His Glory, my God is sufficient, He gives me daily bread, are just a few of the promises you must learn and apply to your life.  God has a glorious inheritance for his children to lay hold of Hallelujah.  We must utilize them daily.

How to fortify your (Atmosphere):

If there is strife and contention in the family you begin to wage war and fortify your home with Peace, the peace of God that surpasses understanding, Great is Jesus’s Peace therefore Great is my Peace and my composure is undisturbed.  Peace is a gift given to us from Jesus.  Jesus says my peace I give you, how amazing is that.  I have Jesus’s Peace working in me.   To God be the Glory I don’t have to rely on my own but what Jesus gives. 

How to fortify your children!

If you have school-age children, they too must be fortified and strengthened with the word of God on how to be a Christian servant leader; how to be a Christian influencer and live a life that’s up right in the eyes of the Lord.  Learning to combat social norms like bullying, disrespect, speaking negative words over themselves and or others will have to be taught and practiced.

For our children to remain the Christian influences that we are raising them to be; we as parents need to continuously plant the word of God in them as well as plant the heavens on their behalf.   When I say plant the Heavens I mean speak, declare, decree their DESTINY in prayer.  Our children will enhance their culture, they will shift atmospheres with the peace of God that rest on them.  When our children come into a room in the name of Jesus, Favor, Grace, Peace, Mercy, Authority, and Power follows.  

My Prayer:

Anything lost in battle, anything stolen, anything misplaced, and mishandled by myself and or my family Lord I repent right now in Jesus name.  I ask for forgiveness in all areas Lord and I thank you for the strategy of Fortify.

Lord God I thank you that you will not forsake me and you will not leave me.  Even though it seems I have lost so much, been under so much oppression you are my Lord My God and you will defend me and my family.  I thank you for the strategy to fortify my life, my family, my home, my children, my spouse, and my belongings.  Everything that belongs to me that you have given me stewardship over Lord strengthen me as I strengthen my walls so that it is all protected.  I thank you for the Nehemiah anointing to repair, restore, revive, rejuvenate, refresh and rebuild all to completion.   Father I give you Glory and Honor in Jesus name Amen.

Yours in Christ

Rooted in CHRIST

I was reading my devotional this morning and it was based off John the Baptist’s doubt while in prison. If you are familiar with John then you know he was passionate about his assignment in the Earth realm.  So to see him go from that passion and zeal to doubt and unbelief was a bit revealing this morning.

We as believers must be so rooted in Christ that even in persecution (prison) we have no doubt in the God we serve.

Until we are filled are exquisitely shielded with the power of God we may be defeated by the power of Satan.  We cannot allow the suggestions of Satan to dethrone our knowledge of the power of God.

John the Baptist was a great man of God and his assignment was to declare the coming of the Messiah. He was the Forerunner to Jesus Christ himself but while John was in prison John began to experience doubt. During this time of imprisonment the enemy slipped in and planted of thought in John mind.  John the Baptist started thinking maybe he had made a mistake.  Perhaps Jesus was not who he thought he was.  After all here John is in prison.

John the Baptist sent 2 of his followers to question Jesus the Messiah as to who he was if he was truly the Messiah or was he mistaken.   Jesus responded in Matthew Chapter 11 versus 4-5 Jesus answered and said go tell John the things which you here and see:  the blind see;  and the lame walk;  the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear;  the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them.

Satan merely made a suggestion and inserted it a negative thought pattern into John’s mind and John received it.   He began to doubt all that had transpired which is why he sent two of his disciples to question Jesus.   As Christians or as believers we must be fully persuaded in the things of Christ Jesus.   We must not be moved by our situations or our circumstances whether things are in our control or not.   We must truly walk not by sight but by faith not wavering at our surroundings.

The Lord has truly given us power and authority over the suggestions, thought patterns, and abilities of our adversary. Until we truly rise up and move in this truth then we will succumb to the deceptive patterns of the enemy.   Satan uses the same strategy on Eve when he told her has God truly said you would die; back in Genesis.  The enemy uses the same tactics over and over it is our responsibility, it is our job, and it is our duty to recognize his handiwork.

The funny thing is he uses the same things over and over merely making suggestions that cause us to doubt. He plants negative seeds by way of suggestive thoughts or people around you who have no knowledge of Christ’s true power.  They have no true revelation of who they are in Christ So they continually say negative words.

I declare and decree no longer will we fall to the deceptive patterns of the enemy. I pray over our minds that we have the mind of Christ and that we have the ability to see God’s handiwork in the earth in/and over our lives.  Lord God I pray that we have the ability to see the enemy’s deceptive plan and patterns. Lord I pray we are able to discern when the enemy has planted people in our lives to speak doubt and unbelief around us.  I pray that we not come into agreement with anything contrary to the word of God.

Father God we repent right now in the name of Jesus for every thought, word and seed planet of doubt or unbelief within our hearts we are now in sync with our Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ.   In the name of Jesus create a new heart and renew a right Spirit within us Lord.  I pray that the word of God and that the spirit of Wisdom, Revelation and Knowledge be portion in Jesus’s name Amen

Look to the HILL!

 

Psalm 121:1

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

What are you need of today? Is it your health? Has the enemy robbed you today or yesterday in any area of your LIFE.  What are you Looking at.  I have come to rely on this scripture more and more.  My mother-in-law quotes this scripture ALL the Time.  I never knew why this was her go to scripture but as I have grown in the word of and as an adult I know what it truly means.

When I hear this song by Travis Green I am reminded of several scriptures but this one especially.  Psalm 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.  The Bible tell us we are the healed.  We as Believers, Christians, Children of the Most High God, the Remnant, or whatever adjective you are claiming today on the cross, on that hill, “Calvary” that Jesus said it is finish.

Today we operate in the finish work of Jesus.  We now have power and authority that was given back to us and all finished work at the cross is Ours.  So your healing is finished.  I’m dealing with healing today.  I have so many people connected to me that are being plagued in their bodies with sickness and disease and unrest and people of GOD that is not our portion.  You were healed at Calvary sickness and disease is trying to come up on you.  Whose report will you believe? Where are you Looking? What is your heart set on? Your healing/healed state of being or what the enemy and symptoms are saying. Today lets BELIEVE God.  8/22/2016
