Episode 26: Understanding the will of God for your life

06/04/18 • 44 min

In order to speak the right words regarding your future, you have to know and understand the will of God for your life. There is a general will of God for your life and also the specific will of God for your life. Example: The general will of God for our lives is to be saved, healed and delivered. However each person is also called by God to fulfill their specific destiny.
Who is the man that fears the Lord? Him shall He teach in the way He chooses. He himself shall dwell in prosperity, and his descendants shall inherit the earth. The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him, and He will show them His covenant.
Psalm 25:12-14
Allow the Holy Spirit to “hover” over you until the Word is ripe within you. Then, begin to speak that Word to cause every area of your life to line up with His plan.
Through this process, I have come to learn there are three stages of discernment of His will:
1) Discerning His will,
(2) Discerning His timing and
(3) Discerning His ways.

Episode 25: How to overcome the spirit of fear in your life

Fear is a crippling reality.
Fear often brings on sleepless nights that turn into zombie days which lead to exhausted minds and bodies unable to stand in faith. The feeling of helplessness can be overwhelming and often leads to depression. A person in fear feels completely alone, forgotten and unable to see anything clearly.
2 Timothy 1:7 – "For God has not given us the spirit of fear ..."
To fight a battle requires offensive weapons. Bring the wrong tools to a fight and you won't survive long at all. When it comes to spiritual battles, you can't bring your physical tools with you. You need spiritual tools. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 10:4 that the weapons of our warfare are NOT carnal BUT mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds...
So what weapons are you bringing bringing to the battle field?
The two weapons we have been given to win our spiritual battles are
(1) the weapon of prayer. The Bible clears says; "The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man accomplishes much" (James 5:16)
(2) the mighty weapon of worship. Worship enables us to overcome whatever challenge we have before us. It worked so well for Paul and Silas that it even caused an earthquake! In Acts 16:25 and 26, the Bible declares; "At midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's shackles were loosened".
So, the next time fear grips you, don't try to figure it out with your normal techniques, go after it in prayer and worship. 2 Timothy 1:7 says; "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind". Get rid of it in Jesus Name! Listen more...

Episode 27: Shaping your destiny with words

The power of our desire to fulfill our destiny for our life’s is literally depended on what we say or don’t say. Each one of us has destiny to fulfill. God had a plan in mind for you and before the foundations of the earth were laid.
The Bible says in Jeremiah 1:5
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;
Before you were born I sanctified you;
I ordained you a prophet to the nations".
Psalms 40:17 (AMP); The Lord takes thought and makes plans for us), and Jeremiah 29:11 (AMP) we know that they are thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.
Now let us look at the New Testament scriptures..
John 12:49-50,7:18 - Jesus speaking;
49 For I do not speak from myself, but the Father, who sent me, himself commands me what I should say and what I should speak.
50 And I know that [to obey] his command is life everlasting. Therefore, whatever I speak is just as the Father tells me to speak.
1 Peter 4:11
11 If any man speaks, [let it be] as God's oracles [words]; if any man ministers,[ let him do it] with the strength that God gives, 3 so that God may be glorified in all things through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and power forever and ever. Amen.
So how will we bring about our destiny? God gave us a pattern to follow. We shape our destiny in the same way the Lord shaped the future of the universe: He spoke it into being. Likewise, we shape our destiny with our words.
