He Always Lifts up the Standard!

"So [as the result of the Messiah's intervention] they shall [reverently] fear the name of the Lord from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him and put him to flight [for He will come like a rushing stream which the breath of the Lord drives]." - Isaiah 59:19 AMPC

God has a clear design for your life, a sacred standard that outlines His best for you. Yet, the enemy relentlessly tries to sabotage this plan, tempting you to stray from God's will. Fear not! For you have a powerful support system: the Holy Spirit and the heavenly hosts are always ready to assist you.

Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and discouraged, maybe even like a failure. But I want you to remember that you haven't exhausted all options yet. Hold on to this truth: when the enemy attacks, the Holy Spirit will rise up and defend you. Face life's challenges with confidence, knowing that you have a powerful ally who will raise a standard against every obstacle and adversary.

As you head into this week, facing the same challenges - that job, school, business, or problem - remember to approach them with a newfound determination. Pray and declare, 'I'm coming at this again, but this time with a new standard, a higher standard of the Holy Ghost. I will emerge excellent and victorious in Jesus name!’

PRAYER:

Father, thank You for Your ever-present help. Thank You because nothing catches You by surprise, and that You already equipped me with tools for victory in everything I do. Holy Ghost, lift up a standard against everything that is against me. In Jesus name, amen.

Set on a Definite Path

Posted on by
In the bible, in Psalms 16 verse 11, the Psalmist laid to us about the path of life, which is to tell us that it is definite. Reading Isaiah 46 verse 10 the bible says that God declares the end in the beginning, telling us that this path of life is a preset path.
Knowing this should give you confidence that when God declares, He fixes it. He fixes your end before you started the journey. In other words, as long as you are walking in the path of God, the circumstances you face in this path, are not a surprise to God. The only thing you need to be in check is that you are in the path set for your life.
This you should always know that the devil knows you are in the path God set for your life, that is why he tries much to frustrate you. He brings unnecessary fights and contrary voices along the way that can make you abandon this path, because it is in this path that all what God destined for your life is. Abandoning it will mean you miss out on what God has set for you.
When it comes to matters to do with your destiny, do not just give up, these are matters that you fight till you win. Let the enemy know that you only have one option, win. This is the only path for your life, you will never take a shortcut to your destiny, that is why you will fight till you win.
One advantage in this path set for your life is that there is spiritual enablement and there is the leading of God. Do not give up easily on the matters of your destiny.
I pray that if you were on the edge of giving up because you have fought and you feel weakened, there will be fresh strength to help you hold on, you will not give up, you will rise again and win. Grace is released to cause you to triumph. In Jesus Name.

What do you have?

"And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not anything in the house, save a pot of oil." - 2 Kings 4:2 (KJV)

When God wants to prosper someone, He starts with the question, “What do you have?” This is the basic principle of prosperity. And it is exactly what the Spirit of the Lord is showing us in the opening verse.
Your assignment is, therefore, to discover and acknowledge what God has already given you and surrender it to Him to work with it. No one is a non-entity. We all have something special given by God.

You may not know how valuable it is or how far it can take you. You may look at it as if it is useless, but God will always start with what you have.

PRAYER:
Father, thank You for everything You have given to me- whether big or small. Open my eyes to realize the potential hidden in what You have given me. I surrender my gifts, talents, academic qualifications, and all I have to You. Work with them. I am ready to prosper in them all. In Jesus mighty name. Amen.
