Counter The Enemy Attacks

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

When moving in new realms and places of authority, oftentimes, the enemy will try to deter, distract, retard momentum, confuse, and inflict your emotions. There are three powerful things you can do to counter these attacks:

1. Worship-flee to the presence of Yahweh. Pour your heart out to Him. and allow Yahweh to pour his to you. Spend time listening to Him. Be quick to repent and forgive.

2. Rest-in quietness and trust, the times of refreshing come from the presence of Yahweh. Rest in his arms, in his care, in his love, repose. Rest your mind on his peace. Even warriors need R and R. Rest and Release it all to the Father. Only do what you have to do and rest.

3. Foster relationship. Do things that will cultivate relationship, avoid breaking covenant, fight to love, don’t fight to be right. Only dwell on Truth, faith-filled, and praiseworthy words. The enemy desires to divide, Yahweh desires to unite and reconcile. Remember our warfare isn’t with flesh and blood but against principalities, rulers of darkness, and spiritual wickedness in high places.

When You Walk Through Fire

by Hazel Straub

Many times, when God has us in a narrow tight place, we cry out for rescuing from our situation. We think, “If only God would quickly change our circumstances, everything would be fine.” Instead, God says he is not delivering us out of our difficulty but is walking with us through our predicament.

God is with us, so we will not fear. It is on the journey with him, that we have our character refined, are humbled and become more like Christ. Also hardship teaches us to focus on Yahweh, who is present with us, not on the water that seeks to overwhelm us or the flames that leap at us. He has promised that we will not drown nor will the fire burn or scorch us. He is our help and strength, in the midst of trials. He will make us a powerful testimony of overcoming, with the help of God, to many who do not know him yet.

“Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;” (Isaiah 43:1b – 3a NIV)

Renew Mind With The Word Of God

by Hazel Straub

Every morning our mind needs resetting and recalibration. We do this by getting God’s perspective on our day. Read the Word of God out loud, ask Holy Spirit to teach you, make it come alive and change you from the inside. Pray and listen to God. No longer being driven by fear, doubt and unbelief but by having the mind of Christ, trust and receive, as you live in him. Change and reset your viewpoint, believe the Word, and agree with God!

For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12 NKJV)

Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in his eyes. (Romans 12:2 TPT)

Rest That Refreshes

by Hazel Straub

When I am tired and weary, I find my rest in you my LORD
Unloading my stress, distress, troubles no longer stored
Washed in the blood of the Lamb, at peace with joy, blessed
Tranquil, at ease and refreshed, resting on your breast

Recovering my purpose in your love, mercy and grace
Your presence brings lightness, as I go at your pace
Ungodly expectations and measuring sticks destroyed
Transformed by true loving acceptance, I’m overjoyed

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.(Matthew 11:28 NKJV)

What Weighs You Down?

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

It’s not what you’re eating, but what’s eating at you. It’s not your weight, but what’s weighing you down. Many food disorders are not because one is hungry but because one is lonely. It’s not what is happening now but what has happened to you.

Pray this prayer today, “LORD, HEAL MY MIND FROM THE HURT OF MY PAST. GRACE ME TO LIVE IN THE NEWNESS OF LIFE WITH THE MIND OF CHRIST. Holy Spirit, help me to deal with the roots of the trees and not just the leaves. Holy Spirit, speak truth to me and I will be free.”

Agree With The Word Of God And Declare It

by Hazel Straub

When you agree with what God has said, in his Word and declare it with your mouth, it is powerful. Obediently, follow his instructions. Decree his Word, with your speech, watch blessings come, and overtake you. Faith comes through hearing and hearing by the word of God. It reveals God and his one and only Son, Jesus the Anointed One by his Holy Spirit. Have faith and trust in God and your life will be transformed.

This book of instruction must not depart from your mouth; you are to recite it day and night so that you may carefully observe everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in whatever you do. (Joshua 1:8 HCSB)

Stop Supporting Strongholds

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

When God delivers you from something or someone, your next requirement is to stop supporting the structure or stronghold that allowed from which you were delivered, to stay in your life. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal, identify, and speak Truth, to you in this area (ways you keep supporting or allowing it to remain). Then the structure or stronghold will fall and crumble completely powerless, in your life.
