Where Is Your Biggest Investment?

by Hazel Straub

Faith or fear develops where we make the biggest investment. When we believe a negative word, fear grabs and pulls us down. Our faith and trust in God must dominate our lives.

In the natural, tests come and due to a failure, we think that devastation is our portion. We have to decide if we will exist in the ruins or turn to God and grab hold of him and his promises. One failure does not have to ruin the rest of our lives. The choice is life or death. Live with the fear of lack or choose to trust that God will provide for all our needs. Fear causes us to become self-absorbed and filled with pride, which ruins relationships and causes us to run from difficulty.

Remain where God placed you. Rather than thinking, “How can I get out of this?” Choose to think, “What can I learn from this?” Fear robs us of peace but faith and trust in God grant strength. God gives us new beginnings, is faithful and supernaturally provides for us. Turn to God, who is our help and strength and never fails. Believe, trust and have faith in God, not the circumstances. He is your shield and blessing.

Later Yahweh spoke his word to Abram in a vision. He said,
“Abram, don’t be afraid.
I am your shield.
Your reward will be very great.” (Genesis 15:1 NOG)

Loved!

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

It’s good to “know nothing.” Then God can lead you into all truth. It’s good to be “weak.” Then God’s strength can be perfected in you.

It’s good to be “broken.” Then God can make you whole.

It’s good to be “loved,” by LOVE.

Obedience And Restoration

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Wow! You need to read this, Beloved!

Years before, Elisha had told the woman whose son he had brought to life, “Leave here and go, you and your family, and live someplace else. (In this season, BE OBEDIENT to the voice of the Lord. Obey your prophets and authorities in the Lord. For your deliverance is connected to your obedience.) God has ordered a famine in the land; it will last for seven years.” (2 Kings 8:1)

The woman did what the Prophet told her and left. (OBEDIENCE IS THE HIGHEST DEGREE OF WORSHIP.) She and her family lived as aliens in the country of Philistia for seven years. Then, when the seven years were up, the woman and her family came back. SHE WENT DIRECTLY TO THE KING AND ASKED FOR HER HOUSE AND LAND. (2 Kings 8:2-3)

It so happened that as he was telling the king the story of the dead person brought back to life, (Yahweh is bringing back to life that which you thought was dead, your passion, dreams, desires, businesses, marriage, family. etc.) the woman whose son was brought to life showed up asking for her home and farm. Gehazi said, “My master the king, this is the woman! And this is her son whom Elisha brought back to life!”” (Kings 8:4-5)

And when the king asked the woman, “WHAT DO YOU WANT?” Yes, when the King asked the woman, “WHAT DO YOU WANT?” Yes, Yes, when the King asked the woman, “WHAT DO YOU WANT?” she TOLD HIM. So the king appointed unto her a certain officer (Angel of The Lord) saying, “RESTORE ALL THAT WAS HERS, AND ALL THE FRUITS OF THE FIELD.”

The king assigned an officer (Angel) to take care of her, saying, “Make sure she gets everything back that’s hers, plus all profits from the farm from the time she left until now.” Since the day that she left the land, even until now.”

The Lord didn’t respond to her directly but called forth the angel of the Lord. Because oftentimes, if he tells us that we are going to get IT, then we have a tendency of going after IT, instead of Him.

In this season, you do not have to strive, overexert, or war for anything. Beloved, your years of struggle are over. Your years of warfare concerning this are over.

The officer represents the angels of The Lord, he summoned them to respond directly to her request by saying, “RESTORE ALL THAT WAS HERS!” (God is restoring You.)

I hear the King saying, “Better than before. MORE THAN ENOUGH. More than you ever had. Pray for your so-called friends and I will shift your captivity. You will have twice as much as you had in your beginning.” (Job 42:10)

“For your shame, you (Beloved) shall have DOUBLE; and for confusion, they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land, they shall possess the DOUBLE: everlasting joy shall be unto them.” (Isaiah 61:7)

“I Am not only giving you double for your trouble, but I Am going to DOUBLE YOUR DOUBLE! Fulfill your desires, execute your dreams, and expand your borders. And for your suffering, you shall reign in Glory, and for your pain, you shall be empowered with my Might.”

“Just because you told Me what you wanted, I Am going to give you MORE than what you asked for. Move in delight, favor, and great expectation of Me, King of kings. I Am working it ALL IN YOUR FAVOR. Even those that oppose, are being exposed, that they might see, on you, My Glory.”

“Angels of abundance, angels of glory and great treasure. Angels of revival and angels of miracles are waiting for you to tell the King today, what you really want.”

“And when the king asked the woman, “WHAT DO YOU WANT?” she told him. So the king appointed unto her a certain officer (Angel of The Lord, saying, RESTORE ALL THAT WAS HERS, AND ALL THE FRUITS OF THE FIELD, since the day that she left the land, even until now. (The Holy Spirit highlighted the word “ALL” that was hers.”

“All that belongs to you. All that has your name on it. All that is destined and designed for you. All without exception or exemption. Everything that is yours is coming to You. Even if it was stolen, it is coming back to you. While you’re standing in the presence of the King, while you’re worshipping, while you’re asking, Yahweh is already answering.”

“And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” (Isaiah 65:24)

I hear the King saying, “Retroactive back-pay and seven-fold return for what was stolen from you. The pilfering is over. You are no longer living in the land of scarcity, lack, and need more. Now, you are living in the land of surplus, abundance, and More than enough. You are living in the land flowing with milk and honey, the rivers of Pishon, & drinking from the river of His pleasures.” (Genesis 2:11; Psalms 36:7-8)

THE KING IS ASKING YOU, “Beloved,” WHAT DO YOU WANT?”

I adjoin my faith and believing with yours, IT IS SO! Amen, 🙏🏿Amen.

God’s Glory Requires Change!

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Never be friends with the “same”, be friends with “change”. When we are friends with the same, some people fade away. Because they expect you, to remain the same. But the glory changes you, from glory to glory.

Conclusively, don’t stay friends with the monotonous. But, instead, remain friends with those subject to change, with the GLORY IN YOUR LIFE.

The GLORY demands CHANGE. Those who can’t accept it, remain friends with the SAME…EMBRACE THE GLORY and the consequences that come along with it. Those who are friends with the CHANGE WILL REMAIN…Selah

A Moving Target Is Hard To Hit!

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

In this season, God isn’t requiring us to wait on Him, he’s waiting on us. Move from the place of complacency, doubt, fear, and disbelief. Sometimes we wait for everything to be up to par, or for finances.

God says if you move, (faith in action), furnish him with your movement, what you need will be attracted to you. Only if you move towards the things he placed within your heart to do. Move against all odds, the resistance of the enemy, and the mishaps of the past. Move into your New Day, in Christ.

Some things will not happen until you move. Progression in God. Unpredictable Worship. It is difficult for the enemy to hit a moving target. Move and watch heaven move with you.

Praise God!

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

If you’re tired of being the way you are, don’t wallow in self-pity, don’t drink “self-hatorade,” quit speaking negativity over-yourself, nor make excuses.

Simply, do something about it. (Let go of all the negative energy, it doesn’t look good on you.) Praise looks so much better. *Smile*

Walk In God’s Faithfulness

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Walk in the value of who You are not in the opinions of who others thought you were. Walk in the reality of whom people reveal themselves, not in the fantasy of what you’d like them to be. Walk in the faithfulness and expectation of God, not in the inconsistency and unpredictable expectation of people. Let it go, let it go, let it go, and embrace wholeheartedly “ALL”, Yahweh has ordained for you.

Prayer For Disarming My Tormentors

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Holy Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I run to you because you will never let me down. I come to you because you cannot fail. I trust you, Father, because you disarm and teach me how to disarm my enemies with love. Deliver me speedily, for you are my rock of defense and fortress of trust. Pull me out of the net they have laid privily for me, for you are my strength and safety zone. Into your hands, I commit my spirit, for You have redeemed me, God of truth. I hate all this silly religion and playing of games, but you, O God, I trust.

You disarmed my tormentors and didn’t leave me in their clutches but gave me room to breathe. Be favorable to me and smile on me with favor today. To all my enemies I have become a reproach, but especially to my neighbors, and a dread to my acquaintances, who flee from me on the street. I am forgotten like a dead person, and out of mind; like a broken vessel. For I have heard the snake talk and slander of many; terror is on every side! While they schemed together against me, they plotted to take my life. But I trusted in, relied on, and was confident in You, O Lord; I said, You are my God. My times are in Your hands; deliver me from the hands of my enemies and those who pursue me and persecute me.

Let the Glory of your face, shine on Your servant; save me for Your mercy’s sake and in Your loving-kindness. Let me not be put to shame, O Lord, or disappointed, for I am calling upon You; I desperately throw myself on you. Let the wicked be put to shame, let them be silent in Sheol (the place of the dead). Let the lying lips be silenced, which speak insolently against the [consistently] righteous with pride and contempt.

What a stack of blessings you have piled up for those who worship you, ready and waiting for all who run to you, to escape an unkind world. You hide me safely away from the opposition. Oh, how great is Your goodness, which You have laid up for me, goodness which You have wrought for those who trust and take refuge in You before the sons of men! In the secret place of Your presence, You hide me from the plots of men; You keep me secretly in Your pavilion, from the strife of tongues.

Blessed be the Lord! He has shown me His marvelous loving favor when I was beset as in a besieged city. As for me, I said in my haste and alarm, (I’m out of sight, out of mind), I am cut off from before Your eyes. But You heard the voice of my supplications when I cried to You for aid. Oh, love the Lord, all you His saints! The Lord preserves the faithful, and plentifully pays back him who deals haughtily. In you I am strong and my heart takes courage, I wait in expectation of you Lord! (Psalm 31)
