Believing the Promises of God - in His Word

Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed… Without weakening in his faith… Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what He had promised. ~ Romans 4 [selected 18-21]

Wrestle it Through


Last night I spent a powerful time in prayer - in tears - pleading for the enemy to be bound in the life of another. I prayed that they would wrestle through with God - until He blesses. GOD is at WORK - and the enemy hates it. He is coming at many of us with a vengeance to distract and destroy - but He has no claim over those who belong to Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 6:11-13 KJV
11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. [emphasis added]


Genesis 32:24-26
24 So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. 25 When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob's hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. 26 Then the man said, "Let me go, for it is daybreak." But Jacob replied, "I will not let you go unless you bless me."

What is it that you are wrestling through with God (against the enemy)? Put on your armor - praise - prayer and God's Word - and fight - being more than a conqueror and don't let up until you have victory and God blesses!

Choosing JOY,
