3 Things To Guarantee Victory in Your Battle!

I can't promise you that no weapon will ever be forced against you. In fact the bible tells us that we have an adversary the devil (not people). The enemy hates your potential, future, he doesn't want you to accomplish it. The very fact he is fighting you is an indicator that he fears your future.

The enemies job is to create adversity, He is the adversary, and it is his assignment to create adversity in your life. The fact you have adversity in your life reveals that you are on the right team, and you are moving in the right direction. The fact you are in a struggle is a sign to you that you haven't been conquered. The fact you are struggling means he has not got you... It is you refusing to submit to it, he has not subdued you, conquered you, you are fighting it, and you are overcoming.

There is a reward for those who don't quit. Those that try to slide through life taking shortcuts don't get their reward. As long as you believe you can win... I want to share 4 forces from my life that will help shorten the length of time you are in the battle. The bible teaches us that there is a time ans season for everything, a time to fight, and a time to rest. In other words if you are in a fight, you are in purpose. You are not going through it for nothing, there is spoil on the other side of this fight!

If everything is smooth sailing in your life, I would be nervous, looking back over my shoulder waiting for something to jump out of the bushes. The devil doesn't want you tog gain any ground so he by nature will resist you. The resistance lets you know, you are making progress, and the closer you to the prize, the harder it gets.

The struggle is never meant to be dragged out for long periods of time, it is meant to be short and intense. But if you don't know how to properly respond then a 40 day test will become 40 years of wandering in the wilderness!

Over the next few days I will share one key. By the way I have not forgotten the "Cutting the head off your giant". I will get to that later.

The first force you must use is your speaking. you have to learn that the power of life and death is in your tongue.

Proverbs 18:21 tells us that there is power of life and death in your tongue and they that love it will eat the fruit. That means that my word is seed and I eat the fruit of what my words produce. Most of the trouble we experience in our lives is the fruit of what we spoke. Could it be that the difficulty you are facing is a harvest of your words?

we give life to what God wants to kill, and we kill what God wants to live. You enjoy a world that has been created by your words. Everything in life follows your words, health, peace, provision, money, increase, success... If you know how to use the tongue properly, you can create a world you desire to live in.

A undisciplined tongue will cause what God intended to be short and intense to be prolonged. It prolongs your trouble and it makes permanent your trouble. The first step to changing it is to stop talking about it. The thing you ignore will die, but the thing you keep talking about will live. That's why when Jesus's mother was at the foot of the cross, He told her behold your son, behold your mother. Why? If you keep talking to me momma, i can't die, momma go home so I can die! if you want it to die, stop giving life to it with your mouth.

James tells us that though the tongue is a little member it can cause a wild fire and it can give direction to your life like a horse bridle, and it can turn your ship any way you want it to go. If your trouble is prolonged and it just keep sticking around kill it by ignoring ir. Call those things that are not as though they were. Speak what you want to see and experience.

I hate when someone keeps bringing up the problem. Tell me the solution or don't say anything at all. Lastly, why is it that when trouble comes, we want to talk to everybody but God? Cast your burdens on the Lord and he will sustain you. I have a rule and it is this, don't share your problems with people that have no ability to solve them.

Blessings,
