Spiritual defeat is contrary to the word of God. It is the seed of Satan that works its way into the mind before it becomes a physical reality, but for the heart that can embrace this: God says, “I have turned to you in mercy; I have brought you home to me, and my dwelling place in you shall be built”. God has a predetermined design of what He intends to do in and through our lives. This work is started and completed by our Mater Carpenter Jesus Christ and His intentions are to design His church to become carpenters after His own heart. No devil can destroy this divine work.

Considering talents are the promises and provisions of God, have you hid the talents that He deposited in you because of unbelief? God will deposit in us what we need to empower us to bring glory and honor to His name. The more we step forward in faith the more you will notice that God wants you to go back to the first gifts He deposited into you and ask Him to resurrect the very first deposit that He placed in you.

When God sends us through hard times it is because He is investing His life in us. The very essence of our faith is to trust that everything God does is good  — the hard times, the times we don’t understand, and the uncomfortable times. Trusting in the goodness of God will allow us to go through any situation with a supernatural peace and we will come out understanding His purpose for our lives.

When we walk in obedience to God, He will begin to put a divine order in our lives and He will empower us with the supernatural life of Jesus Christ. We all have enemies we are facing, but an obedient heart will open up our spirit to hear the shout of victory and freedom that only Christ can give us. Every Christian that is hungering for truth in this hour will have a cry produced in them by the Holy Spirit and this cry will shout out to the Glory of God.

It is imperative that everyone who belongs to the true Church of Jesus Christ learn the voice of God. In these last days demonic voices will arise to deceive us and lead us into captivity. How can we know when God is speaking to us? First, the voice of God will never promise us peace if we are embracing the same value system of the world. Second, the voice of God will challenge sin. In the dark days ahead the people of God will be lead into the tender mercies of God. God will give us a heart full of confidence when we choose to live uprightly.

The spoken word of the scriptures has the same force of authority of the God who said, “Let there be light.” When we place ourselves under the authority of God’s word our eyes are open to see and know the power of the spoken word of God. There is a faith that is infused in us when we place ourselves under the authority of God’s word.

This is a teaching about righteous and unrighteous authority and the principals of action we must follow to deal with the situation. Humility and a non-argumentative attitude is much needed in these particular situations.

Will we finish our life victoriously or will we end up powerless and ordinary? In order to finish our lives in victory we have to be doing the work of God. The enemy is after the strength of God in us. The devil knows the potential of one person that rises up and cries out to the Holy Spirit to destroy the works of darkness in their life. The Spirit of God will come upon us and expand us, we will not be defeated with repeated failure. God promises us absolute deliverance.

One of the ways God witnesses to the lost is through the change He makes in our lives. The very testimony of Christ in us will be a voice crying out to them. We as children of God are to take the promises of God and begin to speak what God is speaking to us about this lost generation. We are to allow the word of God’s promises to become a higher reality than every situation and pour the water of life on the dry land and this life flowing force will lead the lost to the Blood of Jesus and the finished work of Calvary.

When we allow ourselves to sit under a ministry of men that draw the people to themselves as opposed to pointing them to Jesus Christ we will bear fruit that desires to please man and not God. God is calling us out of a man-focused ministry and reminding us one more time it's all about Jesus. We must focus all our attention on beholding His face. Only in Christ is the veil lifted so that the heart can embrace God and not man.
