DECREE AND DECLARE GODS WORD PART 1

DECREE AND DECLARE GODS WORD

PART 1

John 14:13-14   ¹³ And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

¹⁴ If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

Jesus is not saying here that whatever Christians ask for they will get answered, as James says Christians must learn to say “if the Lord wills”.

Romans 8:27-28   ²⁷ And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

²⁸ And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

We must do the will of God in our lives, as Jesus said, not my will…

Luke 22:42   ⁴² Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

The overriding goal of the Holy Spirit is to carry out the will of God in our lives. Not our personal wills. Whatever we say or do must glorify God through the Son.

We must accept what God wants. All glory belongs to God the Father. If and when we pray whether it be mental, physical, or spiritual, if it doesn’t give God

glory, we won’t be getting what we are asking for.

We know he hears us and we believe it is His will. Whatever we ask presents that fact that we are assured of this. Even though we might see an immediate answer to our prayer, we know that we have the petitions that we desire of him, providing it is His will.

Always remembering in our petition, it has to glorify the Father through the Son for it to be his will.

James 4:14-15   ¹⁴ Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

¹⁵ For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

Writing a decree is for establishing a written law.

For instance, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego would not worship the golden image of the king Nebuchadnezzar. He threw them into the furnace. He had written a decree for the people to bow to the image of him.

Declare means to make clear, make known or to proclaim.

Romans 1:4     ⁴ And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

Before you can declare something, there has to be a something.

The mosaic law by Moses was a decree of law by God the Father. The stone tablets were to make clear, or make known or to proclaim or declare, that this is the law.


Dan 6:7, 6:9 and 6:26   ⁷ All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
⁹ Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree.
²⁶ I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel: for he is the living God, and stedfast for ever, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even unto the end.

The king wrote a decree, declared the decree and rewrote another decree to cancel the first decree.

Psalms 103: 18-20   ¹⁸ To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.

¹⁹ The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

²⁰ Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

Every demon in hell must bow tot that name. And every angel in heaven will heed Gods anointed word, spoken in the name of Jesus.

As we begin to speak and decree the confessions of Gods anointed word, expect your life to be transformed by the power of the name of Jesus.

As you confess the decrees of God’s word you will be putting the heavenly father in remembrance of his promises to you.

God’s word promises that he will contend “stand with us” together with you, for your breakthrough or your victory.


John 14 :25-26   These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
²⁶ But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Jesus is saying, the Holy Spirit will teach and guide us: He does this in many ways.

It is so important to have your heart open to hear from the spirit of God: He was sent here to help us.


Job 22: 28   ²⁸ Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.

Make a firm foundation.

I believe with all my heart, that as we decree these words of confession over our lives, we will see God transform our circumstances for the better.

Since we have a role to play in releasing the Kingdom of God, and the blessings that the Lord has preordained for us to walk in that we can find how to activate Gods supernatural blessings and favor in our lives by decreeing and declaring His word.

Mark 11: 22-24   ²² And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

²³ For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

²⁴ Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Jesus is saying, have faith in God, whoever says, (speaks, decrees, confesses or prophesies) and believes, and not doubt, but believes those things he says, (speaks, decrees or prophesies) will be done, will have whatever he says.

He, Jesus, said: (say) three times. Evidently it must be very important to speak the words.

To a believer it should never matter what it looks like in the natural realm, if the word says “I am blessed, I was healed, I am prosperous, then make a decision to speak it into your life. Decree and declare the grace of God into your life in the name of Jesus.

Sometimes the enemy uses words against us. That is why decreeing Gods anointed word over our life is so powerful and life changing.

God’s word nullifies and triumphs over the enemy’s words every time.

Words are very powerful. We need to be very careful. If you confess poverty, the devil will work double time to keep you poor.

If you say that you have a sickness or weakness, the devil will gladly give you a big helping of sickness or weakness.

Never confess or say you are sick, always say, I am battling sickness.

Never say you’re are living in poverty, always say… I am battling poverty.

Isaiah 54:17   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.

This is so powerful; it gives us the right to condemn every tongue which rises against us in judgment.

We even need to resist the tongue of those in the medical profession. Be careful and do not repeat everything that the doctor diagnosed you with.

If you must say something say, I’m battling so and so.

Continue decreeing and declaring Gods word.


Hebrews 11:1   Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.


Hebrews 11:6   ⁶ But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Mark 11:22   ²² And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

Declare Decree 1-   I shall serve the Lord with joy and gladness of heart, for the abundance of everything that you shall give to me this year. Thank you, Lord.

2 Corinthians 9:8     And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

God will generously provide all you need. Then you will Always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.

Decree 2-   Thank you Lord, that I shall be kept in perfect peace, and double prosperity as I keep my mind and spirit focused upon you. I choose to trust you today Father.

Isaiah 26:3   ³ Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

We can never avoid strife in the world around us, but when we fix our thoughts on God we can know perfect peace even in turmoil.

Decree 3- Lord I will daily cast my cares upon you because you care for me. Right now Father I cast these cares upon you. (Tell Him about your concerns or worries of the day.)

1 Peter 5:7   ⁷ Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Carrying your worries stresses and daily struggles by yourself shows that you are not fully trusting God with your Life: don’t submit to circumstances, but to the Lord, who controls circumstances.

Decree 4- this will be a year of double peace, double grace and double anointing, and I will prosper and be in health as my soul prospers. I will prosper in all aspects of my life.

3 John 1:2   ² Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Today people still fall short in their thinking. God is concerned with your body and your soul. As a Christian we should neither neglect nor indulge for Gods service.

Decree 5- I purpose in my heart and spirit, to let my words be few in my conversations. I will not enter into vain speaking or foolish speaking today, Lord. May the meditations of my heart and the words of my mouth be acceptable in your sight, oh Lord; My strength and my Redeemer.

Psalms 19:14   ¹⁴ Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.

May the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart be pleasing to you. As you begin each day, determine that Gods love will guide what you say and how you think. Let your words be few.

Decree 6- the Fathers divine love, or agape love, has been shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit.

I purpose to walk in the God kind of love at all times, this day and each day this year.

I will love everyone who crosses my path today and I choose to walk in love, because the love of God has been poured out in my heart by the Holy Spirit.

Romans 5:5   ⁵ And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

This expectation will not disappoint us because all three members of the trinity are involved in this. The Father and the Son send the Holy Spirit to fill our life with Love to enable us to live by His power.

With all this loving care, how can we do less than serve Him completely.

Decree 7- Lord I purpose in my heart to forgive my enemies, who seem to persecute me. I ask that you would bless (name)

In a great and mighty way. “Ask the Holy Spirit to help you with this”.

Matthew 5:44   ⁴⁴ But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

Jesus asks us to love our enemies. If you love your enemies and treat them well, you are truly showing that Jesus is Lord of your life. (This does not include Satan and his fallen angels.)

Decree 8- Lord I purpose in my heart to seek first the Kingdom of God and your righteousness in my life. I will seek your Kingdom and your righteousness today and every day. Father I ask that you will begin to give me more revelation about what your righteousness encompasses.

Matthew 6:33   ³³ But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

As we seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, all these things: salvation, prosperity, health, wisdom, love, peace and Joy shall be added to you.

Decree 9- I purpose to build myself up by praying in the spirit today. I will nourish my spirit, soul and body everyday by praying in the Holy Spirit.

Jude 17-21   ¹⁷ But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

¹⁸ How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

¹⁹ These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

²⁰ But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

²¹ Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

If you are not baptized in the holy spirit, just pray in your normal fashion, God knows your heart.

Decree 10- Lord I ask you for my inheritance today. Father I am your child, and an heir of your kingdom, I am a joint heir with Jesus Christ.

Father I thank you for these privileges today, I ask lord for you to release my supernatural heritage as a partaker of the inheritance of the saints of the light.

Because Jesus has delivered me from the power of darkness, and translated me into your kingdom of heaven.

Lord I ask you for the fullness of Christ’s atonement of the cross of Calvary to come forth in my life and circumstances today.

Romans 8:17   ¹⁷ And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

Colossians 1:12-13    ¹² Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

¹³ Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

Everything God gives to his Son, Jesus Christ is our too. But if we are to share his glory, we must also share his suffering.

What kind of suffering are we to endure? In many parts of the world, Christians face the same severe circumstances as the ones in Jesus’ day. (The disciples)

Decree 11- Praying this prayer from this very spot will spring forth a great move and work of God that will impact the whole earth for Christs’ glory.

Matthew 28: 18-20   ¹⁸ And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

¹⁹ Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

²⁰ Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Jesus said, we are not all evangelists in the formal sense, but we have all received gifts that we can use to help fulfill the great commission, as we obey, we have comfort in the knowledge that Jesus is always with us.

Decree 12-   Lord forgive me for wearying you with my sins and iniquities. Thank you, Father, that you do not remember my sins and iniquities, Lord let us contend together.

I put you in remembrance of your promises to forgive and restore me Father. I state my case Lord may we contend together, Lord that you may acquit me in your tender mercy and grace.

Isaiah 43:26    ²⁶ Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.

Decree 13-   Lord I confess my sins to you today.

Father I thank you that you see me through the atoning blood of Jesus. You forgive me of my sins and you cleanse me and make me righteous in your sight.

I am righteous and I am made holy by the blood of Jesus. I am I right standing with you Father. I thank you for that today.

1 John 1:9   ⁹ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Even as Christians we still sin, and still need to confess. This kind of confession is not offered to gain Gods acceptance, but to remove the barrier to fellowship that our sin has put between us and God.

LEARNING TO TRUST GOD

LEARNING TO TRUST GOD

Titus 3:4-7   ⁴ But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

⁵ Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

⁶ Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

⁷ That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

He is saying, this that we who have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. Teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lusts and live righteously and Godlike in this present world.

 Psalms 34:8  ⁸ O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

Lately I’ve heard so many people saying to me, you know, I go to church, I pay my tithes, I try to live as right as I know, but things are not working for me.

when people tell me this, usually I have an answer that goes something like this.

The problem with people today, even Christians, is they might be living as right as they know, but it is what they don’t know that is causing things to go wrong in their lives.

Instead of reading the word, meditating on the word, and trusting God, they still are trusting in what they can do, and not what the word says God can do and will do.

You can have all the hope, faith and love, but if you don’t trust God for spiritual direction you won’t reap the full benefit of Gods blessings.

John 14:12   ¹² Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

We must trust God and his word, how is it that we trust God for our salvation but don’t trust him for all our needs… like healing and prosperity…

Either God can do all his word says he can and will, or they are reading a different bible than I am.

 Jeremiah 17: 7   blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

if you will put your trust in the Lord you will find confidence in the Lord.

We as the church need to start making it a point to trust and realize that God loves us and would never lead us in a wrong direction.

3 John 2    beloved I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health even as thy soul prospereth.

Prosper in all things. What is all things?

Everything that God has to offer through his son Jesus Christ and his finished work at the cross.

As thy soul prospered, we are not going to prosper if we don’t know what the word says.

The word is the truth. The truth can’t bless you if you don’t know the truth and apply it to your daily walk, by the renewing your mind.

Paul says in Ephesians 4:23   be renewed in the spirit of your mind.

you will never understand the mercy of God and the grace of God until you have his word in your heart, and a relationship with him based on his word.

it is impossible to have a relationship with Christ with one foot in the word and the other foot in the world.

With God it is all or nothing, no ifs, ands or buts about it.

It is time for Gods people to wake up and stand up and become what God expects us to be.

Mark 16: 15-18   ¹⁵ And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

¹⁶ He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

¹⁷ And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

¹⁸ They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Do you really trust God?

We are living in a world of hurt. But there is hope in the midst of hurting.

Yes, because there is a God who cares and who promises to protect and provide.

The question is why do we hurt? Why does God allow it?

How long can I hang on? How long until things change?

This is one of the reasons why I like to teach and raise up a solid teaching of God’s word.

God’s word can bring comfort to one’s life, whether it is pain or illness from a physical situation or a financial meltdown.

Some of the things we face daily are depression, feeling discouraged, and feeling impatient.

We even sometimes get so low we start doubting God.

So, what do you do when you are at the point that you don’t know what to do?

Sometimes you might think you are sure about what you need to do; then fear shows up.

Isaiah 41:10   ¹⁰ Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Another time you want to make a decision but lack the courage to step out in faith.

When you feel uncertain about making a decision, know in your heart that God will give you the courage you need.

Psalms 27:14   ¹⁴ Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.

God will give you strength for every situation you face.

When you rely on His power, you will run and not be weary, that’s Gods promise to you.

Let’s say you’re facing financial difficulties, financial problems can build up incredible stress, worry and anxiety.

You can get so preoccupied about how you will ever pay these bills off.

Turning to God for wisdom and direction is a vital step toward financial freedom.

His word is filled with the knowledge and insight you need for getting through these tough times.

Matthew 6:31-33   ³¹ Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

³² (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

³³ But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

God knows your needs and will provide in ways you can’t even imagine.

Ephesians 3:20   ²⁰ 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,

Philippians 4:19   ¹⁹ But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

He has promised to supply all your needs, according to the riches of His perfect knowledge, unlimited power an unshakeable love for you.

Psalms 34:10   ¹⁰ The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.

One of the things we really need to do is totally surrender our lives to God.

The word surrender means: an act of yielding or giving up our way of doing things and going to God and seeking His way of doing things.

Sometimes after people reach a certain age, they start thinking I’ve worked all my life and I don’t have a thing to show for it.

Then either Anger or depression starts showing up.

Ephesians 4:26-27   ²⁶ Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

²⁷ Neither give place to the devil.

Don’t ever let anger control your thoughts. Anger and depression will cause you to want to give up.

So, what do you do? When you don’t know what to do, go to God, and say to God, I surrender all.

When you surrender all you have to God, you will get all that God has for you.

FREEDOM FROM A SIN CONCIOUS

FREEDOM FROM A SIN CONCIOUS

Hebrew 2: 14-15   ¹⁴ Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

¹⁵ And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

When you know and understand what Jesus has done for you, then you are free from bondage. But to be free from bondage, you have to know the truth.

John 14:6   ⁶ Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

The truth is the servant of the Lord must not strive pertains to being drawn aside into endless discussions which serve no purpose and can only conclude in strife.

The servant of the Lord must be patient and in meekness instructing those, so God will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth. And they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, those who are taken captive by him at his will.

If you don’t know the truth you are in danger of a sin conscious.

The danger of a sin conscious is that your faith won’t work. No matter what you are believing for, it won’t work.

The question is what did Jesus really do? Jesus left his home in heaven, then came to earth, took on a body of flesh and blood, so he could die. As a spirit he could not die, spirit doesn’t die.

So, in order for him to die he had to take on something that could die a body of flesh and blood. Not only did he take on flesh and blood so he could die, he now has a body to give as a sin offering.

He was born to die… there had to be a death, there had to be a blood sacrifice. Everything Jesus suffered was supposed to be for us.

He took our suffering; our pain of death, the whipping, being beat, spit on, and even went to hell in our place.  Because he went to hell we don’t have to.

The sin debt had to be paid for, and Jesus was the only one that could pay that debt. Jesus set us free from shame, poverty and the bondage of fear of death. Satan does not have the power of death anymore

If you don’t absolutely understand what Jesus did on that cross and as soon as the sin conscious comes back you will be back to step one.

Hebrew 10: 26   ²⁶ For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

After being born again and making Jesus the Lord of your life and having received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins. This means if the cross of Christ is rejected there is no other sacrifice or way to God that will be accepted.

If you don’t know who this is written to you will miss the whole thing. How can we give a correct interpretation of this verse of scripture, and not know what the Jewish people went through?

We have been taught that if you willfully or deliberately sin there is no more sacrifice for sin.

What did that do to you when someone said that to you? It makes you feel condemned, hopeless and it makes you feel like I might miss heaven.

This letter was written to the Jewish Hebrew people. It was never meant for the believers of Jesus. Under the Mosaic Law if you sin willfully after Jesus has come and go back to the sacrificing of bulls and goats… there is no more sacrifice!

The Hebrews willfully sinning is the rejection of Jesus Christ as the final sacrifice and going back to the temple sacrifice.

The only sacrifice for the remission of sin is the blood of Jesus Christ. And if you reject Him as the only sacrifice, there is none other sacrifice for sin.

This is and was always plan A. there is no plan B.

When you go back under the Law, and try to make Gods word work in your life under your own efforts you will fail.

You will always have a sin conscious, wondering if I break the law will this or that happen. You will always be in bondage with a sin conscious.

That is why Jesus came to deliver us and make us right before God, so we could have a righteous conscious.

Righteousness by the law says…do this and do that. Righteousness by faith says it has already been done.

It is not about what God is going to do… it is about what God has already done…

Too often I have seen Christians start going to church and things seem like they are going well, and then the adversary shows up and starts putting their past in front of their eyes.

They start thinking about the past sin in their lives and give up hope once more…

When you’re on the top of things the devil will do everything, he can to bring you down with words like this…

1.    Nobody loves you.

1John 4:7-8   ⁷ Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

⁸ He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

2.    Now you are all alone.

Hebrews 13:5  ⁵ Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

3.    You have no friends…and it goes on and on.

John 15:15   ¹⁵ Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

4.    Being a Christian is impossible; it is not going    to work for you.

John 15:7-8   ⁷ If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

⁸ Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

5.    You are a failure, and you are just going to fail again.

Romans 8:14  ¹⁴ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

6.    Things will never get better, stop fighting it and just accept it.

Romans 8:28   ²⁸ And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

7.    Who do you think you are somebody great, have you forgotten all those mistakes you have made?

John 8:32   ³² And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

I have seen so many people try and try again to break free from their past only to end up listening to the poisonous condemning judgment and the lies of Satan.

That is the power of wrong belief, what you believe whether good or bad is powerful…Change your belief, change your life, don’t get caught up in the guilt trap, or the fear trap.

John 8:32 says… you shall know the truth and the truth, shall make you free.

Free from the bondage that Satan puts on you through deception and lies.

Jesus himself is the truth that sets us free; he is the source of truth, the perfect standard of what is right.

He frees us from the consequences of sin, from self deception and from deception by Satan.

He shows us clearly, the way to eternal life, with God… Jesus does not give us freedom to do what we want, but freedom to follow Gods word.

As we seek to serve God, Jesus’ perfect truth frees us to be all that God meant us to be.

Sin has a way of enslaving us, controlling us, and dominating us, dictating our actions.

Why?  Because Satan is always watching our movements throughout our lives, so he can accuse us.

1 Peter 5:8   ⁸ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

Jesus can free you from all the things that keep you from becoming the person God created you to be.

If sin is restraining you from being what God created you to be, Jesus can break its power, sin has over your life.

Matthew 28:18   ¹⁸ And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

He will take away the guilt, the sorrow and the emotional roller coaster that washes us back and forth.

God loves you; he will never leave or forsake you. Let the power and anointing of God lead and direct your life, and you will never have this guilt feeling again.

If you accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of your life, Satan has no right to accuse you of anything.

If you are a child of God, your past is behind you.


Matthew 6: 33    But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness: and all these things shall be added unto you.

God will add everything mentally, spiritually and physically that you need to fulfill the purpose that you were created to accomplish.

Revelation 21: 7-8    He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.   8: but the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and the murderers, and whoremongers and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.


Matthew 14: 29-31   And he said, come. And when peter was come down out of the ship he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying Lord, save me. 31  And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?


How can you have a burst of faith one minute, and loose it the next minute?

One minute “I can do this”

The next minute, Jesus, hold my hand.

The spirit of fear from Satan stepped in

2^nd Tim: 1:7   for God hath not given us the spirit of fear: but of power and of love and of a sound mind.


You can’t feed a sound mind from watching CNN

 24-7. They will feed you with lies and fear.


John 14: 6   Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the father but by me.


This is God’s plan A. there is no plan B

Living and Understanding His Presence

Living and Understanding His Presence

Psalms 16:11   Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.


If you will put away the stress of the day, and set aside its daily pressures, learning each day to rest in the presence of God, your life will change.


Gen 39:1-3   And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither.
² And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
³ And his master saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand.

God was with Joseph and blessed him greatly: Joseph stayed in Gods presence.

Everyday we need to acknowledge the presence of God, recognize what God has already done for us.

In his presence there is joy, which is your strength, there is pleasure knowing God will never leave you or forsake you.

Expand your consciousness of his presence; let God be part of your life.


Psalms 140:13   ¹³ Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.

We are always to give thanks unto the Lord to dwell in his presence.

God can’t be a part of your life unless you practice being in his presence.

If your life is a big zero, I know someone that can make something out of zero.

See the Lord in everything you do, when you praise Him, you’re continuing in his presence.

When you’re reading the word, thanking Him for what he has done for you, meditating, acting on his promises, you’re continuing in His presence.

Ephesians 2:4-7   ⁴ But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

⁵ Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

⁶ And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

⁷ That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

God who is rich in mercy has always had great love for us, even when we were dead in our sins. Quickens us (to show signs of life) or to give keener perception so we will move more rapidly.

He raised us up together to sit in heavenly places with Christ Jesus that he might manifest his exceeding riches of his grace and kindness toward us through Jesus Christ and the cross.

Let the grace of God bless your increase. Experience what God has in store for you in the heavenly realm.

Christians should not have difficulty producing fruit, God is with you, God is for you, and God is on your side.

Ephesians 5:8-9   ⁸ For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

⁹ (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

At first we were in darkness, but thanks to Jesus we are the light and walk as children of light because the fruit of the spirit is in all goodness and right standing and truth.

An apple tree has no difficulty producing apples, give it plenty of sun light and plenty of water and it will grow and produce fruit.

It is the same thing with Christians we can’t change and produce fruit unless we are exposed to the Son’s light and the living water of Jesus Christ.


Matthew 16:26   ²⁶ For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

What is so worldly important that any person would exchange for his soul? What on this planet would be so amazing that the presence and glory of God would seem dim in comparison? What people would want to have it instead of eternal life in heaven.

What you are exposed to the most, that is what you will end up producing.

God can’t be a part of your life; the favor of God can’t be on your life until you acknowledge his presence.

The acknowledgement of God is to admit that you truly show recognition by your act. Acknowledging God and his presence is acknowledging the things of the covenant that Jesus made possible for us at the cross.

When you get up in the morning do you say good morning Lord or do you say good lord it’s morning.

The presence of God was with Moses at the red sea:

The presence of God was with Daniel in the lion’s den

The presence of God was with Shadrac, Meshach and Abednego in the furnace

The presence of God was with David when he killed Goliath.

If the presence of God was only with them, how much better off are we with the New Blood covenant, God is now in us.

Most Christians believe that God will help them if they help themselves.

God helps those who trust and depend on his word, not the ones who think, I can do it myself. What happens when self can’t do it?

When you work you get the glory, when God works, He gets the glory.


Psalms 72: 17-19   His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
¹⁸ Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
¹⁹ And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.

Resting in the Lord means you believe and trust what has already been done at the Cross.

When God created the earth, He didn’t create man until it was finished.

God has this thing about not putting man in a place when things are not ready.

God is only going to put us in a place when everything has already been made ready.

John 14:2-3   ² In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

³ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Under the dispensation of grace, God has us in a place that everything you need is already done.

Most of the time our prayers are asking God to do something that has already been done.

You need to see faith as what goes into the past to get what is already available and bring it to the present.

What you have confidence in the most is what you are going to lean on the most.

Let God know you need Him, he loves to be needed. This wonderful opportunity to trust God will one day be gone.

We must allow Him to show up in our life.

We are in the age of grace and God wants you to take advantage of it. Please trust God in this.

In order to experience the benefit of the presence of God you must be assured that he will never leave you or forsake you.
