Don’t Give Up!

We are living in a time of acceleration so this is not the season to take your bat and ball and go home.

I’m here to encourage you today ….. DON’T GIVE UP!

Do you have a dream in your heart? Do you have a promise from God that is yet to be fulfilled?

There is an appointed time that is set for your miracle to manifest in this earthly realm. Don’t give up because your miracle could be just around the corner …. literally!

Sometimes the appointed time is not only up to God. You also have a lot of say when the appointed time will be.

I believe that prayer is accumulative (Rev 5:8). Keep praying (Phil 4:6). Keep believing (John 6:69). Keep thanking God for the manifestation of what you’re believing for (Psalm 100:4).

How badly do you want the healing, the provision, the miracle?

Are you willing to obey the Lord even if it hurts? To do with your breakthrough, what was the last thing that the Lord asked you to do, say or believe? Have you done it? I have found that He won’t usually give you the next step until you have done what He has already asked you to do. If you are not sure, just ask Him. He will tell you. He is a kind Father and will not withhold His answer.

One other thing that I have discovered through my own experience and praying for others is the belief that if God wants to heal, bring provision, give a miracle, then He will do it when He is ready. I can’t find an example of this in the Bible. Everyone had to take steps toward getting their miracle. People moved toward Jesus. They didn’t give up. The woman with the issue of blood pushed through the people just to touch Jesus’ garment hem but keep in mind, she had been searching for answers for 12 years prior to this (Luke 8). Naaman had to dip himself in the dirty Jordan river 7 times to be healed of leprosy (2 Kings 5). Did he want to? No. He complained and was angry but to his credit, he did it anyway and reaped the benefits of obeying the prophet.

Everywhere Jesus went, where the people had faith, every single person that CAME TO JESUS was healed. There is no doubt about it …… JESUS ALWAYS WANTS TO HEAL!

If you (and me) have the same power living in you that raised Jesus from the dead (Dunamis power through Holy Spirit) and you are to bring Heaven down to earth (Matt 6:10), shouldn’t you be seeing more healings, salvations, provisions, and miracles today? I believe the answer is outrightly YES! Are we there yet? No but may I encourage you to seek the Lord today to ask Him how you can pull Heaven down to your part of the earth today. This is my heart’s desire – to learn this very thing.

God is good because of WHO HE IS, not because of who you or me are or what we’ve done.

He wants to bless you – no ifs or buts. He just does because that is who He is.

He is on your side (Psalm 91).

A big thing that can stop the manifestation of your miracle is your mouth. The Bible says in James 1:19 that we should  be quick to listen and SLOW TO SPEAK.

When I was pregnant with our 4th, 5th and 6th child, each time I decided to keep it a secret until it was too obvious to hide. I got to about 21/22 weeks each time. The main reason was I was tired of the typical comments: “Don’t you have a TV?” (News flash ….. it only takes one time), “Don’t you know what causes that?”, “I couldn’t have THAT many children!” (No-one is asking you to), “How can you afford to have another child?”, “Are you hoping for a girl this time?”.  Argh! These are all negative comments that belittle the fact that I was carrying a precious gift from God inside of me. Words have power and the longer I could keep the negativity away from my developing child, the better.

I was excited to find that this is exactly what Elizabeth (the mother of John the Baptist) and Mary (the mother of Jesus) did. They went into seclusion for 5 months – 21/22 weeks – and the Lord told me it was for the same reason. He didn’t want negative words spoken over these precious children. He was so serious about the matter that He even made Elizabeth’s husband, Zechariah, mute! (Luke 1:22)

YOUR WORDS HAVE EXTREME POWER!

There are no neutral words in any language. Every word will either activate the angelic realm (Psalm 103:20) or the demonic realm (counterfeit). Be very careful of what you say.

What you say today affects and creates your tomorrows. What you want to happen in your coming days, weeks and months you need to speak out today. You will reap what you sow so let me encourage you to sow positive words of inspiration, encouragement, faith and humongous dreams. The angels get very excited when the Word of God is spoken out, especially the promises of God. They take those words and bring them into being. I have seen many angels including healing angels, salvation angels and angels of provision. They are magnificent, however, they aren’t activated until someone prays.

There are angels standing around just waiting for you to speak out words of faith. They can run with those words and cause them to turn into miracles in your life.

Don’t give up. Keep praying. Keep believing.

There is a tipping point for your miracle and breakthrough to come to earth from Heaven. Keep going. You don’t know how close you are.

You are MORE than a conqueror!

“No, despite all these things, OVERWHELMING VICTORY IS (Y)OURS THROUGH CHRIST, who loved us.”       Romans 8:37 NLT

I would love to partner with you in prayer for areas that you need a miracle to occur. Please let me know in the comments below so I can pray alongside you. God is good and wants to answer your prayers. He believes in you and so do I.

Bless you,
