God calls us, as warriors not worriers. When fear and anxiety surrounds us, cry out to God, for his help and strength. Remember, his great love for you and how he shields you.
Worship him, for his greatness and his trustworthiness. You are a worship and prayer warrior. Rejoice! We triumph in his name!
The Lord is my Strength and my [impenetrable] Shield; my heart trusts in, relies on, and confidently leans on Him, and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song will I praise Him. (Psalm 28:7 AMPC)

Fear not, my child, for I am with you. I created you, in my image, and call you by name. Do not fear man or the enemy because, I, Yahweh, your God, am with you. Trust me and lean not on your own understanding. I uphold you with my right hand. Everything in your life is first sifted through my hands, of love.
It is time for you to decree: “I will not be shaken because Yahweh is my foundation. He is with me and I will not fear. No matter what happens, he holds me close. I put my trust in the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth. His love surrounds and upholds me.”

There is power in your mouth. When you moan and complain, you get more of the same. Bleak outlook and weak. Instead, raise your praise to God and find strength, from how you think and speak. Loud shouts of joy and laughter, makes the heart lighter and brighter.
Your praise or negativity spoken by you, sets the course for your day. Choose life not death!
Words kill, words give life;
they’re either poison or fruit—you choose. (Proverbs 18:21 MSG)

Although you may have felt unimportant and insignificant, God has not forgotten you! He gives victory to the weak. The only requirement is believing, totally trusting and relying on him, with all your heart (mind, will and emotions) and in all your ways. Surrender yourself, into God’s care and know that he cares for you. He fights your battles for you. Then you will see your enemies, (fear, doubt, depression, oppression, poverty, sickness etc.), defeated.
Don’t you remember what happened to the Ethiopians and Libyans and their vast army, with all of their chariots and charioteers? At that time you relied on the LORD, and he handed them over to you. The eyes of the LORD search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. ( 2 Chronicles 16:8-9a NLT)

Exhausted, weak and tired? The journey long and hard, with unexpected detours?
Yahweh energizes the tired and weary, giving them fresh strength. Those who depend on him, soar like eagles above their troubles, catching Holy Spirit wind. Wait and focus, with anticipation, on Yahweh. He will refresh, renew and restore your strength.
Don’t you know?
Haven’t you heard?
God Everlasting, Yahweh, the Creator of the ends of the earth,
doesn’t grow tired or become weary.
His understanding is beyond reach. He gives strength to those who grow tired
and increases the strength of those who are weak.
Even young people grow tired and become weary,
and young men will stumble and fall.
Yet, the strength of those who wait with hope in Yahweh
will be renewed.
They will soar on wings like eagles.
They will run and won’t become weary.
They will walk and won’t grow tired. (Isaiah 40:28-31 NOG)

Has this season been difficult and tough? Here in Alaska, it is -45 degrees Fahrenheit (-43 C) with a low of -51 F (-46 C), anticipated tonight. We could complain about the weather or focus on other things. This is a temporary condition, not permanent. Normal life continues despite the weather.
Where we put our focus, defines who we become. Every problem gives you a chance for a promotion. One can thank God for life, the beauty of the snow-covered trees, adversity causing strangers to help one another, and thankfulness because God is our refuge and strength.
Difficult times can cause one to embrace bitterness and discontentment or surrender to God, get better and praise God! Have another thought. Praising God for his goodness, brings his presence and strength. No longer held captive by shifting circumstances, but we rejoice because God is with us, strengthens us and helps us triumph!

Waiting for promises, from God to manifest, in your life?
The season of…and suddenly God, is here! Expect to experience and suddenly God, to transform your life, in the best way!
The and suddenly God caused the disciples of Jesus, to receive the promised Holy Spirit. They immediately went from fearful and flawed, to powerful God-filled people, who changed the world, proclaiming the good news of redemption and restoration, through Jesus, with signs, wonders and miracles.
Expect to see God move suddenly in your life!
And while staying with them Jesus ordered them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father. (Acts 1:4 ESV) And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. (Acts 2:2 ESV) And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language. And they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? (Acts 2:7-8 ESV) The disciples were transformed, as were those who heard them and received their message.
