Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession. Psalm 2:8

The Christian who does not learn that they have to battle to take hold of what belongs to them, doesn’t understand the reason why Paul did vigils and prayed during the day and night to bless the people. There are many gifts being wasted because the person does not know what to do before a promise – an opening of the Heavens to enter and take hold of such blessings. 

Learn from those who served God in the past and be a good warrior. Besides, go until the very end in your demand and do not accept a deal. When He speaks about something, that already belongs to you and you will be fully honored. Now, if you accept any proposal that does not come from the Lord, you will be harmed and you might also cause losses to other people. You are not eternal and you won’t be here forever; therefore, don’t waste your moment where you are called to do something.  This is your time to serve. 

Hannah understood she should be mother of someone who was to be used by the Most High and she did not only think about putting an end to her shame before society. To bless humanity, she entered with her plea before God and she had her petition answered. See what the Father has spoken to your heart and set out to take hold of that. From the moment He revealed you such blessing, it is your responsibility to make that come to light. 

Jonah was carnal when he allowed fear into his heart and fled away from the Lord. When he decided to obey, God made the big fish spit him out, like he were something that was not good for food, but good to fulfill the divine calling; then, Niniveh was saved (Jonah 2:10 -3:5). Those who are obedient enter into the list of those who are called by the Most High for the noble mission He destined for the good of mankind, by His wonderful love. 

Although you told the Father that you were not going, you better reconsider what you said and turn back and do what you were assigned. Thus, in a blink of an eye, you will be an instrument of His in the achievement of His beautiful work. Never give up on the words of the Lord about you, for, without a doubt, through them, He will make of you a partner of His. Then, you will discover how much He loved you because He was patient and because He chose you for such mission. 

Jacob fought all night with God, for he knew he would win his demand of faith. When the dawn broke, the heart of his brother Esau had already changed. There is no way the enemy can win those who are already victorious with the Lord. When you fight Him and prevail, you will be strengthened to defeat the one who is actually the weakest and most impotent before the truth. Even if you had moments of weaknesses that stained you, just be who God says you are. 

Those who are washed by the blood of Jesus have no more condemnation on their record, and because of that, once they are fulfilling the law of the Spirit and life, they are free from the law of sin and death. The Lord did great things for His people, and because of that we must always be glad (Psalm 126:3), for the great King is pleased in giving us a place in His house. To Him be all glory! 

In Christ, with love,
