Proverbs: 29-11.  Fools give full vent to their rage, but the wise bring clam in the end.

One of the things that you and I as believers must learn if we want to be faithful servants in the
Kingdom of God is how to keep our mouths shut.  Very few of us have mastered that skill.

When we get our backs up about something, we think we have to let everyone know about it.
" I am just going to give them a piece of my mind," we say.

Don't make that mistake.  No one wants or needs a piece of your mind - and if you give it
to them, you will only end up alienating people and bringing harm to yourself.  Learn, instead
to keep quiet.

I have seen that happen.  I have known of people who have received revelation about someone's
weakness or needs.  They have been given insight into the problem of someone's  life, so they
could pray for that person but instead they told others about it.  As a result they lost their
effectiveness as intercessors.

Don't let that happen to you. Develop a quiet art of the wise man, and the devil will find it
increasingly difficult to harm your prayer life and ministry to others.

Psalm: 33-1.   " Rejoice in The Lord, O you righteous for praise is becoming and appropriate
                          For those who are upright (in heart)."


Praise, According to the word of God, that's the most appropriate becoming thing that
you as a believer can do.

Let me warn you though, Gods idea of " appropriate" the praise He calls for is joyous
and uninhabited.

If you don't believe it, look in the Bible and see the kind of praise that goes on in
heaven.  Read Isaiah 6. and find out how they act n the throne room.  The serraphine
shout in there until the door posts shake.  And when they do, the glory of The Lord fills
the house.

When you get to heaven you are going to be praising like that too.  You're going to be
leaping and praising God with every part of your being.  But don't wait until then.
Start now.

Decide now that instead of praising God the way you like, you are going to start the way He likes.
Don't wait till you go to heaven to praise God with all your being.  Do it now.
He deserves it.

Exodus: 10-22:23.  So Moses stretched out his hand towards the sky, and total darkness covered
                                all Egypt for three days.
                                No one could see anyone else or move about for three days.  Yet all the Israelites
                                 had light in the places where they lived.

Years ago Satan started a rumor, he told a few Christians that they have to live like the world
sharing all the misfortune, defeat, poverty and failure as those around them.  Well the word
spread.  You may have heard the rumor yourself.  But I am telling you right now that it is
a crafty lie.

The Word of God says in Psalm 91:10, that evil can't even come near your house if you
a abiding in Him.
In John 16, Jesus Himself says He has deprived the world of power to harm you.
Exodus 10:23 says that when darkness surrounded the Egyptians the children of Isreal has
light in their dwelling.

By these and other scriptures, you can see that God never intended you to experience all
of the junk that the world suffers.  He always wanted His children to live above it, stand
out as light in the dark world.

Can you see now why Satan would spread a rumor that would make you believe you have
to suffer with the world instead of live as victor over it?  He does not want people running
after you asking where you get your power, your peace, your health and prosperity.

But that is exactly what God wants.  So put the Word of God to work and dare to receive
the blessings He had promised to you.  Let the light of God's power in your life put the
Devil's dark rumors to rest.

Mark: 11-24.  Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have
                        received it, and it will be yours.

Believing.  That's the key to everything  in the kingdom of God.  It's the way we tap in to
the very power of Almighty God.
Most of us know that.  But few of us are sure exactly how to do that kind of believing.
We don't know how to put it into action.

Actually it is simple, it's startling.  It's as simple as saying "I believe I receive."
Something happens in your spirit when you say those words.  I don't understand how but it does.

As we feed ourselves with God's promises and "swallow" them into our spirit by saying
"I believe I receive" faith is released.  You dont't have to make it happen.  It just happens.
The reborn spirit is made that way.

When you constantly say with your mouth, "I believe I receive my healing" or "I believe
I receive my financial needs are met," and then quote the scriptures that back those things,
faith is released to bring power on the things you need.

Do you want to activate your faith today?  Then make these four keys words the most
important words in your life.  Use them everyday. You will soon discover they work.

2 Corinthians: 10-4-5.  The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world.
On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.
5. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knoeledge
of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

If we think like the world thinks, eventually we will act like the world acts. Unrestrained
thoughts produce unrestrained actions.  So control your thoughts by bringing them into
obedience to the Scripture.

Program your mind with the Word of God.  The Word is Spirit and it is life. When your mind is
totally saturated with the Word of God, your will becomes strongholds to exercise
authority to overcome every ungodly thought and evil habit.

Don't let satan decive you into sacrificing  the glory of God in your life for a few
moments of self indulgence and sin.  Restrain your thought life.  Meditate the Word
instead of selfish, carnel thoughts.  Keep your eyes on Jesus the author and finisher
of your faith.

Romans: 6-4.  We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just
                        as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the father, we too
                         may live a new life.

As a believer, You actually have in you the sama new life God gave Jeaus when He
raised Him from the dead.  The old sinner you once were has died. You have become a new creation
on the inside.

You are full of the resurrection life of God!  But sin disobedience and living a selfish carnal life
will keep that resurrection life from flowing out.  Sin will seperate you from the power of God,
even through you are born again.

So learn to walk in the new life God has put inside you by spending time in the Word and in
Prayer.  As you do that, the Spiri of God will strengthen you and enable you to put that
sin under your feet.

Take the first step today by asking for His help.  Say, "Lord I desire to experience the power
to live by this new life every day.  By a decision of my heart. I declare my self dead to. Sin.
In Jesus Name I will  spend time in prayer and in the Word today.
As I do, I believe.I have received a Holy Ghost refreshing in my life.. Thank you Jesus
for the resurrection power. You have placed in me". Amen.

1 Corinthians: 13-5.  It is not rude.  It is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps
                                  no record of wrongs.

Have you ever tried to forgive someone  and found you simply couldn't do it?  You have cried
about it and prayed about it and asked God to help you, but those old feelings of
resentment just failed to go away.

Actually true forgiveness  does not have anything at all to do with how you feel.  It's
it's an act of the will.  It is based on obedience to God and on faith in Him.

That means once you have forgiven a person, you need to consider them permanently
forgiven!  When old feelings rise up within you and Satan tries to convince you that you
have not really forgiven them, resist him.  Say No, I have already forgiven that person by faith.  I
refuse to dwell on those old things.

1 John: 1-9. Says believe that you receive forgiveness and cleansing from the sin of unrighteousness
associated with it - including any rememberacne of having been wronged!

You as a believer are never suppose to settle - for you are to forgive supernaturally,  for God for
Christ's sake has forgiven you.  (Ephesians 4-32).

You are to forgive as god forgives.  To release that person from guilt permanently and unconditionally
and to operate as if nothing bad ever happened between you,  you are to forgive as well as forget.

As you do that. something supernatural will happen within you.  The pain. Once caused by the incident will disappear.  The power of God will wash away the effects of it.

Learn to forgive and forget.  It will open a whole new world of blessing for you.

Isaiah: 3-10:11.  "Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him
                           for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
                           Woe unto the wicked it shall be ill with him;
                           for the reward of  his hands shall be given him."

Have you ever been afraid to give yourself totally to The Lord  because
you think you might be deprived of some pleasure in this life?
Chances are you have.  That's because Satan is working overtime
to convince you that he can really make your life worth living.
But don't believe him for a minute.  The real truth is yielding  completely
to The Lord  won't cost you anything that's worth having.
It will only cause you to live life to the fullest.

Jesus life on earth was a perfect example of a totally yielded life.
Do you think you would miss out on a lot if you lived that way?
Of course not!  You can walk in that same anointing and power
and glory of God that Jesus did.

Do you have to give up your whole life to do it?  Yes!  You have to
trade your life for  the life of God.  You have to trade your sickness
for His healing, your poverty for His prosperity, your anxiety for His
peace, your sins for His salvation.

So why hesitate?  When it gets right down to it, you really have noting to lose.

James: 1-22.   "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves."

Have you ever been in the position in the past where every time you open the Bible you
receive a river of revelation?

Does it seem lately that the river's run dry?  If so I strongly suggest that you backtrack to the
Last revelation God gave you.  Back up and see if you acted on it, if you did what god showed you
to do.  If you didn't start again, digging again to that revelation and then putting it
into action in your life.  You'll soon find new revelations are beginning to flow.

You see revelation is most prolific when you are acting on the Word.  I'll discovered that
for myself again and again.  The more I act on the word, the.more I see into it.
That's why James 1-22 tells us to not only hear God's Word but to do it.

Open God's Word anew today.  Come before Him with expectancy of a fresh revelation
of the Scripture and commit to Him to follow it up with actions of obedience.  Be a doer
of God's revelations and not a hearer only and your river will never run dry.

Proverbs:4-20-21.  "Attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my saying.let them not
                                depart from thine eyes".

Once you have made the Word of God final authority in your life, your first step of
victory is to go to the Word and hold on to God's promises concerning your situation.

It is good to always have the word in your mind and continue to read and pray the
Word in a daily basis.   There is power in keeping the word in front of your eyes and
going into your ears.  That's how it gets to your heart, so you can live by it.

So don't just think about the Word today, read it.  Go to the promises that cover your
situation.  Feed on those promises and grow strong.

3 John- 2.   "Beloved, I wsh above all things that thou mayest prosper and be n health
                    even as thy soul prosperity."


Once you begin to believe its God's will to prosper you, you can't help but wonder how
He is going to do it.  He s going to do it by prospering your soul.  He is going to plant
the seeds of prosperity n your mind, will and emotions, and as they grow, they'll produce
a great financial harvest.

When Joseph was sold as a slave to the Egyptians he did not have a dime to his name.
He did not even have his freedom.  He'd been sold as a slave.  But God gave Joseph
such wisdom and ability that he made his owner prosper.  As a result the man put Joseph
n charge of all his possessions.

Later Joseph was put n prison.  There is really not much opportunity  for advancement n
prison, is there?  But God gave him insight that no other man in Egypt had.  That insight
took him from a slave to a most honored man in the entire country next to Pharaoh himself.

He rode along in a chariot and people literally bowed down before him.  During a
worldwide famine Joseph was in charge of all the food.  Now that's prosperity.  How did God
accomplish all that?  By prospering Joseph's soul.  No matter how dismal his situation
became, no matter how impossible his problems, God was able to reveal the spritual secrets
that would open th door of success  for him.

If it worked for Joseph it will work for you.

1 Thessalonians: 5-18.  " In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus
                                       concerning you".

Notice  that the scripture instructs us to give thanks "in" all things, not "for" all things.
When tragedy or temptation strikes, we are not to thank God for them for He provides
our way of escape from them.  And that's what we are to thank Him for.

If you read the four Gospels, you'll find that Jesus never gave thanks for sickness or death.
Instead,when He encountered them, His response was to overcome them by God's power.
So give thanks as Jesus gave thanks - not for Satan's activities but for the victory
God has given  you over them.

James:4-16.  For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder
And every evil practice.

Have you noticed that the easiest place to remain self centered is at home?
Sometimes we are more courteous and nicer to friends than to our own family.
We will be more demanding and less forgiving with those dearest to us than with others

When we make Jesus the Lord of our life, we realize  all that had to change. Harmony
is very important in our lives and our family, because then we will have the power
of agreement in work in our lives, we could not allow strife in our home.

Strife drops the shield of faith, stops prayer results and invites Satan and his cohorts
into your midst. It paralyses  the power of god in your life.

Don't allow the enemy to stop you at your own front door by allowing strife in your home.
Put your power of harmony to work in your family.

1 Peter:5-5.  Be clothed with humility, for God resist  the poor and gives grace to the Humble.

Most believers don't  understand humility, if you tell them they're the righteous of god.
they will fight back because they do not believe.
O no they will say " I am not righteous.  I am just a sinner saved by grace".  They are
making an attempt to be humble.  But it is wrong.  You are actually allowing Satan
to trick you.

1 Peter 5-5. says to be humble or submit to God, which means when God says something
you believe it no matter how u feel.  When He says you are made the righteous
of God in Christ Jesus you say that too.  If you say anything else you are actually
disagreeing with God.

Don't let Satan keep you groveling in the dust of false humility.  Agree with God.
Find out what His word says about you, then be bold enough to say it yourself.

Banish pride by submitting to His truth,  cloth yourself in true humility.  It's sure to look
good on you.

Walking in the Spirit.  That's the key to overcoming the flesh.  If you follow the

your flesh tries to put on you.

As you listen to the word of God and the Holy Spirit telling you what to do, you'll

And it will keep darkness from overtaking you.

Psalm: 18: 37-38.  I pursued my enemies and overtook them; I did not
turn back till they were destroyed.
I crushed them so that they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet.

You read here that Jesus has already given you all the power and
authority you need.  He has given you the keys of the kingdom.
He has promised you that whatever you declare locked on earth
is locked in heaven and whatever you declare unlocked on earth
is unlocked in the heavenlies (Matthew:16-19.)

This means you can speak the word and bind wicked spirits.
You can speak the Word and loose the angelic forces of god
to work on your behalf.

What's more you have been given the power of attorney that enables
you to use the Mighty Name Of Jesus.  A name that is above every other
name.  A Name that will cause every knee to bow - in heaven,
in earth and Nader the earth (Philippians:2-9:10).

So don't worry about the devil take authority over him.  Bind the
evil spirits that are trying to destroy your home, your church and
your Nation.  Loose God's Word in the earth and enforce it with the
Name of Jesus.

May The Lord bless this word.

Philippians: 2-7.  He made Himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant
being made in human likeness.

Jesus when He came to earth He lived as man and not as God. As man He had
no supernatural powers.  He had no ability to perform miracles until and after
He was anointed by the Holy Spirit.  He worked wonders not by His powers but
by the power of the Father saying "The Father that dwelleth in me, He does
the works."(John: 14-10).

When He prayed He prayed not as a divine One who had authority as God
but as a man who walked obediently with God. (Hebrews:5-7).

Jesus has sent you into the world to live as He lived.  He has given you the ability
and the command to live above sin, to live in fellowship with the Father, to
preach the gospel, to heal the sick, to rise the dead, to cast out demons and to
make disciples.

Once you realize that, you will throw off the shackles of doubt that have held you back.
You will live as Jesus meant for you to live. Then those around you will actually
begin to see Jesus in you.

Not in the financial realm alone but in every area of your life.  No matter

every situation.

He loves you and and has a job for you to do.  He needs you to spread the
Gospel.  He needs you to heal the sick.  He needs you to chase out demons.
He needs you to feed and cloth the poor.  He needs you to show them His love.
You have to be blessed to be a blessing.

If you have a spiritual weakness, keep confessing that He forgiveth all your inquiries .
Talk to the Father about this.  Ask for strength.  Worship Him.  Keep identifying with this

Though He may judge He is forgiving and loving.

Matthew: 5-8.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

The important thing is to make a beginning.  God's Spirit will let us know where to go from there.

Our reading should be towards delighting in Him, gazing at His beauty as David said in
Psalm:27-4.  "One thing I ask of The Lord , this is what I seek:  that I may dwell in the house
Of The Lord  all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek Him in his temple."

When we approach God in that way it inclines us to want more of Him.  There's no need to worry
about texts that we don't understand.  Jesus said to His disciples, "I have much more to say to you,
more than you can now bear".(John:16-12).  There's much that we will never know, but some of
The hard questions will be answered when we're ready for them.

God can never be understood through the intellect.  Insight arises from purity of heart - from love,
from humility, and a desire to obey.  It's the pure in heart who see God.  The more of God's truth
we know and want to obey the more we know.

George MacDonald wrote:-  the words of The Lord are seeds sown in our hearts by the sower.
          They have to fall into our hearts to grow.  Meditation and prayer must
           water them and obedience keep them in the light.  Thus they will
            bear fruit for the Lord's gathering.

Sit at the the Lord's feet and let Him feed us.

For many of us though we read God's word we are not feeding on God, we are more intend on
Mastering the text - finding out its precise meaning gathering theories so we can talk more intelligently about god..

The main purpose of reading the Bible however is to come to Him, to encounter Him as  our living God.  1st Corinthians. 2-16.  "For who has known the mind of The Lord that he may instruct him?
But we have the mind of Christ.

When we read his word we are reading His mind - what He knows, what He feels, what He wants
And what He enjoys, and what He loves.

Take time to reflect on what He is saying.  Think about each word until God's heart is revealed
and your heart is exposed.

Solitude.

Matthew 6-6:  Go into your room, Jesus said, " close your door and pray to your Father, who is in heaven."

You may wonder why and how?  "Begin small and start promptly,". The idea is to keep things simple
And to begin now. Simplicity begins with solitude not mere time alone, but time alone with God.

Where can we find a quiet place in the midst of the demands of this world?
There is a meeting place - a time and place where we can meet with god and hear His
Thoughts and He can hear ours, a time for the two of us where He can have our full attention
and we can have His.

Solitude is where we are least alone and where our deepest loneliness can be relieved.
It's  a healing place where God can repair the damage done by the noise and pressure of the world.

The more you visit it the more you will want to return.

God's calling.

Genesis: 3-9.  But The Lord God called to the man, "WHERE A YOU?"

God makes the first move, He takes the initiative - calling us, leading us to a place of rest.
It's not that we're seeking God, He is seeking us. God is longing for us - to have us..

God's cry to Adam and Eve, "Where a you" this tells us that God is longing for us.  Are we longing for Him?  He feels lonely when He is separated from those He loves.  Some writers say that the whole Bible is about the "loneliness of God."

I like the thought that in some way God misses me, that He can't bear to be separated  from me, that I am always on His mind, He always looks for me "where A You?"  Deep within  us is a place for God.
We were made for God and without His love we ache in loneliness and emptiness.

It is now neither duty nor discipline that I impose on myself like hundred push-ups and hundred sit-ups each day - but a response, an answer to one who has been calling me all my life.

Spirit Of Our Mind

Ephesians:4-23. To be made new in the attitude of your minds. Sharing of the word: Some say that the spirit here cannot be the human spirit because this is the renewing Spirit. However the spirit here must be the human spirit because it is the spirit of the mind. The spirit in this verse is the regenerated spirit of the believers with the indwelling spirit of God. Such a spirit spreads into our mind and thus becomes the spirit of our mind. The human spirit can be the renewing spirit only by being mingled with the Holy Spirit. On the one hand, the spirit here is the spirit of the mind, but, on the other hand it is the renewing spirit. A mingled Spirit. Lydiaelijah.
