As a person living with a disability challenge is part of my life. I struggled with my identity and I recognize that I still have insecurities to face, but that doesn't mean I can't walk in everything God has purposed me to walk in despite my insecurities. Because of the nature of my condition and physical disability, God's grace is evident in my life everyday and I find strength in the word of God that says in Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through him who gives me power". (CJB).

God Can Turn An Impossible Situation Around

Turning crisis into an opportunity. Concept

Are you facing a seemingly impossible situation? Is what you are needing God to work out for you seem unlikely to come to pass? Is your faith diminishing?

Perhaps, you feel completely overwhelmed, trapped with no solution in sight. Maybe you are confronted with a challenge where it seems like you are hedged in, force to make a choice you prefer to not have to make. Or, you are dealing with the sprit of heaviness as you can’t figure out what to do next, for there appears there is nothing else you can do but succumb to your situation. On an emotional downhill, you could be wondering “how can things change for the better?” However, impossibilities are the circumstances in which God performs His best work. Have faith. With you it may be impossible. But with God, all things are possible.

There is no need for faith in that which you can see. There is no glory for God in which you can make happen. Faith begins where man’s ability ends. In the Scriptures, God led the children of Israel through the wilderness to the Red Sea. As the people approached the Red Sea, they noticed the sea was in front of them and Pharaoh army behind them. It appeared as though they were trapped with no way out. In despair, the people cried out to Moses. The situation appeared hopeless. But Moses trusted God during what looked like an impossible situation. Moses didn’t panic but rather he told the people:

Do not be afraid. Stand firm. And you will see the deliverance of the Lord. The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent.

(Exodus 14:13-14).

Are you allowing fear and anxiety to dominate your life?

Do you find yourself being overwhelmed by anxiety about your future?

Are you using your weapons to overcome fear and anxiety?

How do you stop panicking when the spirit of fear comes upon you?

We have to deal with fear instead of it dealing with us!

When fear and anxiety come initially, we become stuck in the paralysis of analysis; overwhelmed and stressed.

The first thing we need to tell ourselves is:

This is fear. God has not given me the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). I will get through this!

Once we start speaking the word to ourselves and over our situation, we need to move from fear to faith.

To get your faith up it may be reading a certain passage of Scripture, listen to a sermon by your shepherd or pray.

We have to bind and rebuke the spirit of fear and NOT allow it to immobilize us.

We must walk in our Kingdom authority and use our spiritual weapons.

Don’t let the enemy lie to you that you need to take measures into your own hands to get out of the pit.

All you need to do is listen to the Holy Spirit, obey His Voice, and set parameters that keep you focused on God!

Below is a powerful message that will help you overcome fear:

Combating the Spirit of Fear

God Wants To Use You!

Do you know how valuable you are to God?

Have you ever thought about how important your life is here on earth?

What could be accomplished through your story?

Everything God is doing He is doing through someone with a surrendered life to Him.

He will use a life just like yours to reveal His existence and demonstrate His power.

In fact, we each have a dynamic purpose with different gifts, not more important than the other, but working together for a common purpose.

Each of one of us are uniquely created by God with a purpose and plan (Jeremiah 29:11).

Your life is the connection for the world knowing God.

Have you ever stopped to think about that the thought you had was not ridiculous, but a dream that God placed on the inside of you?

The thoughts you think are the very birthplace for supernatural realties. You have to think it first before you can see it.

God can use your thoughts to reach the world in powerful ways.

We just have to take time to fellowship with the Holy Spirit and listen to what He is saying.

The Bible is very clear that without vision we will perish (Proverbs 29:18).

So, my question for you today is this:

Do you believe that God can use you to touch the world?

I pray you are filled with hope and expectation today!

God wants to use you, man/woman of God!

Understand It’s War!

To understand the battle of spiritual warfare, we first must acknowledge that we are in a war. When we hear the word war we think of combat or a battle between of two people that consist of a struggle or controversy. As Believers, we are in a spiritual battleground every day of our lives. Our battles as Believers is spiritual, we cannot see our attacker. But we learn how to fight the battles that are fought in the spiritual realm, and how they have a tremendous impact on our everyday lives.

You are in a spiritual battle rather you want to be or not; there is a battle going on regardless of your opinion. We are either more than conquerors or the conquered. Jesus came to conquer. The war has already been won; we just have to stay in the fight! Everyday victory is achieved by taking authority over the devil, you are either running the devil or he’s running you!

This Kingdom Bible Study Guide will give the insight on where, how and what the spiritual battle looks like in our lives and how to win in spiritual warfare. This book discusses what the Bible teaches regarding spiritual warfare and you will learn how to apply the scriptures to your personal lives to obtain victory over these spiritual battles. It begins with learning the truth of what the scriptures teach and dispelling the lies of the enemy.

Many Believers want to remain ignorant of the reality of spiritual warfare because they do not want to deal with the devil. Before we can discuss the battle, we have to believe in the spiritual realm. We tend to act like little children who closes their eyes during a scary movie, believing that if we can’t see it then it’s not there. Just because you want to pretend you are not in a spiritual battle, does not mean you’re not. The best defense is not ignorance but learning about the spiritual realm and the weapons given to us in order to be victorious.
