I declare to you that this shall be your season of celebration and your set time of victory. The enemy you see in your life, you shall see them no more in the name of Jesus.
In the journey of life, we face various challenges that try to stop us from fulfilling our God-given purpose and destiny.
Overcoming these obstacles is determined by the inherent ability, strength, and power that resides within you, specifically, the presence of Christ in you, for you, and with you.
You will always encounter various challenges and resistance from the forces of darkness, from circumstances, from the elements of this world, from the government, and even from your surroundings.
When you give your heart to God, you enter the real battles of life. The enemy will come against you with all that he has. However, one thing is certain, your ability to overcome these challenges and fulfill your destiny is rooted in the inherent strength and power within you.
The Bible says that, He will be with you in the very midst of trouble. It states that although you may pass through the waters and the fire, they will not consume or burn you. The Scripture also mentions that many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord will deliver them from them all.
The word of God in 1 John 4:4 says, Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. This means as believers, you are not alone in your journey of life.
Therefore giving up in the middle of life is not in your DNA because it is not in God’s DNA.
You cannot give up now. Don’t let the enemy deceive you. You are on the verge of your breakthrough, right at the point where things are about to turn around for you.
When you feel restless in your spirit, and the devil is trying to make you surrender, remember that you are close to your breakthrough. You are on the brink of open doors and miracles.
The book of Hebrews 12:2 says, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
God never gives up! He starts and finishes any project. God who is the author and finisher of faith, lives in you.
The inner capacity given by the Holy Spirit enables you to withstand any trouble, problem, challenge, or situation in life. You are here for a purpose, in a time like this. That is why God brought you to demonstrate to the world that greater is He who is in you than any difficulty or challenge faced in the world.
The story of the woman with the issue of blood gives a deeper insight from the book of Mark 5:25-34 which says, “And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes? And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done to her, came and fell before him, and told him all the truth. And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.”
Declare this with me, “I will laugh last! This is my season of laughter! This is my season of celebration! This is my set time of victory!”
The book of Luke 9:62 says, “And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.”
A Plough represents a task, mission, commitment, or endeavor.
Looking back can mean distractions, and fixating on past failures, worries, and weaknesses. It reflects an unwillingness to fully complete tasks given by God or to give up halfway.
HOW NOT TO GIVE UP IN THE MIDDLE
BE A FIGHTER
The book of 2 Timothy 2:3-4 says, “Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangles himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.”
You are not a weakling but a soldier of God!
FOCUS ON GOD
The book of Philippians 3:13-14 says, “Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangles himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.”
God expects that we put our eyes on Him and put our eyes on the prize.
KICK OUT FEAR
Fear is a torment! The book of 2 Timothy 1:7 says For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and love, and a sound mind.
BE STRONG IN THE LORD
Take the armor of God for your strength comes from Him. Eph. 6:10-13.
ALLOW THE LORD TO LEAD YOU
John 14:6 says, Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me.
The Lord knows the way, always follow Him!
I DECLARE THAT YOU SHALL ENTER INTO YOUR SEASON OF CELEBRATION THIS MONTH IN THE NAME OF JESUS! AMEN.
