December 5, 2023. How can life be this good, you say? Enjoy this time of euphoria. Don’t be expecting things to go badly. When you have joy, you are really entering into My Kingdom. Jesus endured the cross with joy, knowing the final result. Even in the midst of bad you can CHOOSE to set your mind on good and disregard the negative. Try it, I think you’ll like it.
Hebrews 12:1 (NET) “keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. For the joy set out for him he endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.”

December 5, 2023. I heard the Lord say “Take care of business. Do not let your business be unfinished or go undone.” The Lord has given us victory over the evil one. Yet we must individually appropriate those victories in our lives through His Word and by His Spirit. As the Ecclesia of God, we are to prevail against the gates of hell. Gates are defensive, but the church (Ecclesia) is on the offensive. Don’t wait around for the devil to attack you. You take the fight to him until he “flees” from you.
Psalm 18:32,34,37-42 (NAS “The God who encircles me with strength, and makes my way blameless? He trains my hands for battle, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. I pursued my enemies and overtook them, and I did not turn back until they were consumed. I shattered them, so that they were not able to rise; They fell under my feet. For You have encircled me with strength for battle; You have forced those who rose up against me to bow down under me. You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, and I destroyed those who hated me. They cried for help, but there was no one to save, they cried to the Lord, but He did not answer them. Then I beat them fine like the dust before the wind; I emptied them out like the mud of the streets.” (emphasis added)
