4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

We have to be accountable for the decisions we make in life. These decisions can move us forward or set us back from our destiny. Relationships, careers, protection, provision, happiness, overcoming and even motivations we usually depend on the Most High for but if we are honest we can confess that we play a huge part in these things because of free will in having a choice in the matter. Having this kind of authority can help us or hurt us as people wanting and needing more in certain areas of our lives.
The tools for overcoming take bravery, being set apart takes boldness. Sometimes it’s not easy walking away from unhealthy, rebellious or dysfunctional bondages because the flesh wants what it wants. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. The enemy of your soul wants you to be devoured by addictions, insecurities, shame, fear, filth, struggle, jealousy, danger, rage and many other negative strong holds we should be rebuking from our lives.
It is imperative that we make great choices for our lives considering our spirit first because of where we want to end up for eternity. Rejoicing in health, increase, expansion, discernment, focus, love, peace, trust, forgiveness, obedience, ect. should be our goal. There is strength in courageous and positive decisions but the belief in a higher Power helps us to keep in mind that we are imperfect people seeking perfection to direct us to a place of complete rest. Remember family…spirit first and then body because in any other order there will most likely be chaos and regret.
Many us as the hearers and doers of God are used to Him speaking to our spirits or minds/hearts but there are many of the LORD’s children who believe that His voice will be audible. Instead of listening to that small still voice (better known as discernment of the Holy Spirit) it’s ignored because we are looking for something more. Hearing the voice of Yah is simple and peaceful, yet if we lean to our own understanding and do not allow Him to order our steps it will lead to confusion and chaos. Not taking heed to the Holy Spirit will give the enemy power that is dangerous to our very life/soul.
I have been able to give spiritual advice concerning this subject to many of the saints by suggesting to just be still. When we don’t know what to do it is better to do nothing and wait which can save us a lot of heartache and headaches. Although I can give this advice now, there was once a time when I was not as sensitive in my spirit enough to hear from our Father just as many of our brothers and sisters suffer with today. Meditating on the word of Yah, praising, praying and even fasting can help us “hear” from God. Going to church and congregating just isn’t enough in these last days, we simply need MORE!
John 16:13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.
Take time for yourself, read the word for yourself, ask/believe/receive and hear what the Most High is saying in this time of separation and preparation of His beloved children Israel. He is speaking to your heart today but it is up to you to stop, repent and listen to what His set-apart Spirit is saying because it may save you from being drowned with the cares of this world and set you free for the world/age to come. Until the next blog entry…be increased and consider where you are and where you are going.

Victory is the goal! “Well done my good and faithful servant” is what most of us long to hear at the end of the race. The finish line is not only set before us but there are many stumbling blocks along the way. We have to remember that this world was given to hasatan for a season and he is crafty, sneaky even. The Most High’s plan for you is to prosper and to live abundantly. If we carry the concerns of this world then we are already losing the race! Give your cares to the Heavenly Father because He cares for you and by no means does He want us worrying or depressed (not even stressed). Allow God to have the hard things that we have no to little power over, He is waiting for you to give Him permission and authority over every area of your life (which is not your own anyway). Submit, wear your armour, walk in the fruit of the spirit, repent, pray, watch and wait! You will witness the wonderful works of His hands right before your face. Be vigilant, be safe, be strong and forgive – to receive the fair favor our Father wants to give all of His children who love Him and keep His commandments (that He told us to keep FOREVER).

1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great
a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so
easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;
who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame,
and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners
against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
Deuteronomy 31:6 (KJV)
6 Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of
them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will
not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Philippians 3:12 (KJV)
12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already
perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am
apprehended of Christ Jesus.
2 Timothy 4:7-9 (KJV)
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I
have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of
righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day:
and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
9 Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:
Matthew 24:13 (KJV)
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be
saved.
Ephesians 6:14-17 (KJV)
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth,
and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of
peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall
be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the
Spirit, which is the word of God:
Isaiah 54:17 (KJV)
17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and
every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This
is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of
me, saith the Lord.
Proverbs 8:19 (KJV)
19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my
revenue than choice silver.
Psalm 42 (KJV)
42 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my
soul after thee, O God.
2 My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I
come and appear before God?
3 My tears have been my meat day and night, while they
continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
4 When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for
I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the
voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.
5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou
disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of
his countenance.
6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I
remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill
Mizar.
7 Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all
thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.
8 Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in
the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto
the God of my life.
9 I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me?
why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
10 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me;
while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God?
11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou
disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the
health of my countenance, and my God.
