“Ought ye
not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David
forever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?” (II Chro. 13:5)
Every battle
is first won in the heart by unwavering confidence in your strength. Where does
your strength come from? God, sword or army? Confidence is a product of
knowledge.
Proverbs 3:20, “By His knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the
dew” 1 Sam.2:1, Hannah said“… my mouth is enlarged over my enemies …” When you know what your enemies
do not know, you speak, laugh louder and move more confidently than your enemy.
Job 19:25. Although Job had his business, children, health and the respect of
his wife shattered, yet he said: “… for I know that my Redeemer liveth… those
around him would have concluded that he had lost his mind considering his
devastated condition at that time. In Job 42:2, Job said to God: “I know that you can do everything” this shows his confidence in
God.
No wonder God responded swiftly: “…But the LORD turned the captivity of Job.”
(Job 42:10).
God responds to your knowledge and confidence
in Him and in His abilities. What has God told you or promised you? Look
for the word of that promise and build your knowledge/ confidence around it. Rom
10: 17 “Faith comes by hearing the word of God”. As a General of God’s
army, I know that the words from my mouth are divine arrows made of hot iron.
Whenever I speak, the rod or koboko is released into action. It is the heat of
the fire released from the mouth of a child of God that makes witches/wizards
confess
Further reading: Heb. 11:11
Prayer/ Confession: Lord I
thank for every promise concerning me. Am confident that you will and can bring
them to pass in my life. I receive them now.
