   7 – The Spirit of God  

14 – Generational Promises and The Fear of the Lord

 

So the trouble is not with the law, for it is spiritual and good. The trouble is with me, for I am all too human, a slave to sin.  Romans 7:14 NLT

 

Warring for the Promises

If you’re going to get your upgrade and go to the next level, you cannot rebel against God in your wilderness experience – which is easy to do as the wilderness is hard! If you’re like me, you get tempted to run away from God and the processes you find painful. Instead, you must run to Him!

The name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

– Proverbs 18:10

How you act in the wilderness determines if you spend 40 days like Jesus did, or 40 years, like Moses. It is really up to you! It is so important you learn to live and be happy in God’s presence because in the wilderness, the battle is about survival. The Promised Land is about advancing.

The enemy of dreaming, of creativity and forward, is survival. God wants you to get through your wilderness so you can get past surviving and get on with thriving. To do this, the enemy must be displaced.

Know this: that place is in God’s amazing presence in the wilderness. It’s where He changes you from a helpless slave to an overcoming warrior.  Instead of learning to protect yourself, God wants to teach you how to fight. To battle for His promises, His goodness, hearing His voice and for territory in which to glorify Him. He wants to make you dangerous to the enemy and willing to fight for more of Him.

God is speaking courage into you. To move into your Promised Land, you will have giants who try to keep you from advancing. No matter how loud they roar, know that God is bigger. Trust in God’s promises as you advance into the place He has for you. Run to Him!

Do you want to be a warrior? Learn to fight through prayer and by searching for the heart of the King of Kings. Run to Him!

Grounded in Faith

Declare!

I am not a victim who is barely surviving. I am a victorious child of the Lord Most High who wants all good things for me.  I know that when things seem hard, He is still with me and giving me courage.  I choose to run to Him so I can be in His presence.
