Good morning restored ones!

I want to encourage you today to stand strong!  The Apostle Paul admonishes us in Ephesians 6:11-17 to put on the whole armor of God.   Satan is launching his attacks against the body of Christ today like never before.  He knows his time is short and his judgment is coming quickly.  

God wants to raise up an army of believers in these last days who will literally march in satan’s camp and take back everything he has stolen.

Even in our own personal lives, the attacks have been turned up 4 times.  It seems to be one thing after another, and yet because of having a strong foundation in the Word of God, our feet have not slipped and we have continued to stand strong.      

This is a new day and satan is running scared. He knows there is an army rising up in the earth today that is militant. We have to become aggressive! We have to have a made up mind that we are going to get back everything that has been stolen from us.

See, the Prophet Hosea told us in Hosea 4:6,

• My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge.

If you do not know you have a right to live in health, you will live in sickenss. If you do not know you have a right to prosper, you will live in poverty, lack and defeat. If you do not know you have a right to be delivered, you will live in bondage. But the moment you find out the truth, the truth will set you free. This is what John 8:31-32 tells us!

Jesus has done everything for you and I to live to an overcoming, abundant, joy-filled life, but if we do not exercise our rights to walk in what has been given to us, we will not experience it. The covenant is in effect and all you have to do is:

1. Get in position to receive 

2. Stand your ground

3. Do not let the devil steal your blessing

Know that Proverbs 6:31 declares,

• When the thief is found, he must restore sevenfold; He may have to give up all the substance of his house.

I do not let the enemy get away with anything! I use the sword of the spirit, which is the Word of God, and remind him how he has been defeated and has no power over me! Colossians 2:15 declares,

• [God] disarmed the principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in it [the cross].

According to Luke 10:19, Jesus said,

• Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.  

I encourage you to find out your authority in Christ Jesus and take back everything the enemy has stolen from you!

Walking in victory,
