The Lord Empowers Us With Boldness

There are moments with the Lord that are profound, when He speaks a truth so ‘loudly’ that it can’t be ignored. His voice always lines up with His Word that is alive, active and powerful (Hebrews 4:12). I believe this is a moment of that profoundness, when He wants us to know…

“For I did not give you a spirit of timidity of being a coward, of lacking courage, of reacting to danger by agreeing with it or being submissive to it, being intimidated and feeling powerless over it or trapped by it. NO! I have given you a spirit of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control! I have given you My Spirit so you may know these things and live empowered by knowledge.” (2 Timothy 1:7 Amp; 1 Corinthians 2:12)

“Do not come into agreement with anything that is not from Me. Do your actions, your behavior, your thinking, show agreement with Me or this world?”

“Adversity should not intimidate you or crush you to defeat, but raise up the sleeping giant in you; you are a fully equipped child of God! You are my child, fully equipped for this life on earth with all its trials and tribulations. You were created, born-again for success, because I have provided your victory; you live from My accomplishments.”

“The enemy does roam with the roar of a lion trying to intimidate you. But you have My Spirit to stand well-balanced against him. Nothing about satan, nothing about his abilities, is any match for you! He pales in comparison! In fact, he is a coward. I have already defeated him! He hates that position of defeat and cowardliness, and that is why his roar sounds and looks so great, but it is not! I have defeated every aspect of his existence. He is no threat against you but you must know who you are and what I have given you. You dear child are a force to be reckoned with! Even when you feel weak, you are strong in Me! In this position in Me, as My child, you experience tremendous peace, peace beyond human understanding; this is part of your power.  It is peace that is present during all circumstances; it is a peace not dependent upon situations.”

“It is by My Spirit living in you, that you know these truths. When you know you experience it.”
