The Power Of RestSample

Most of the time, our problem isn’t the enemy—it’s our lack of understanding. We give too much credit to the enemy. If we'd understand the truth and the authority we have, we'd know exactly how to fight back and take territory.

We can’t know the truth without knowing the Word of God.

1 John 5:14 says that the confidence we have in Him is that if we ask anything according to His will, He listens and hears us. But if you don’t know the will of God, you can never be confident. And if you’re not confident, you can never take territory.

One of my favorite Scriptures is Romans 12:2: “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

You have to renew your mind to the Word of God. You have to know how to build your house on the rock. You have to know the Word and stay in agreement with what God says. You have to cast aside thoughts that are coming at you that don’t line up with the Word. You have to be courageous enough to wade into the face of circumstances—into the pressure—and declare the Word over situations.

Because there will be pressure.

Satan wants to tempt you to run back to where you think it’s safe. He wants you to forget who you are and everything God has promised, but God has the answers you need!
