Submit and Resist

Going through something? I'd be surprised if you weren't.
And, I have to ask: Are you praying through it or crying about it?
That
may sound harsh, but it's a valid question. I used to cry about
everything. EVA-REE-THING. Even though that's a natural part of our
human experience, it doesn't move God or angels. And, when we're in a
battle we need Him and them to secure the victory.
Saints
I'm here to level you up, to mature you so that you don't break down
every time a situation arises. Basic operation of the spiritual realm:
if the demon assigned to harass you gets the desired reaction out of
you, they get rewarded and you get a label that informs their network
what works and where to apply pressure. Yes, Saints, demons work in a
network system because two heads are betterer than one. And, the
most-common tag-along demon is fear. When lack comes around, fear comes,
too. With sickness, fear comes in with a big ole smile on its ugly
face. I say introduce them all to Slap Ministry.
I'm here to remind you to be steadfast in your Identity in Jesus and immovable in faith. On yesterday's prayer call we focused on James 4:7.
Therefore submit to God. But resist the devil and he will flee from you. (TLV)
Did you get that? Flee from you. The English definition of flee is to run from a place or situation of danger.
Do you understand that when you submit to Yahweh and resist the enemy
the situation becomes DANGEROUS FOR THEM? It is DANGEROUS for demons to
mess with you when you're submitted to God and actively resisting them.
One
thing my angel, Ron Ronald, explained to me is that Yahweh's
Instructions are always simple. So simple a child can perform them.
We're the ones (people) that make things difficult. And, it's true.
God's never once given me a difficult instruction. He may have advised
me to do something I didn't want to do or feel like doing, but nothing
complicated or hard.
Submit to God, resist the enemy. SIMPLE. You know what messes us up? "But, it hurts."
Whether emotional or physical pain, that's where difficulty arises. The
Instructions from The LORD for winning against the enemy are very
simple. Submit, resist. Our human spirits can do this without even
thinking about it because they know better than to give demons an upper
hand. Problems arise when we give soul - human mind, will, emotions,
intellect and imagination - any say so in how we respond to situations.
I
don't like to lose. I've lost enough in my life. So, I'm willing to
submit to Holy Spirit and forcefully resist demons until they're running
scared. And, you must train yourself to do the same. Get in the
practice of blessing yourself and honoring your spirit every morning
when you get up. Say:
Body
and soul, I bless you. You're going to have a wonderful day receiving
direction from my spirit. Spirit, I bless you and call you forward to
deliver Wisdom from Holy Spirit in every situation. Yahweh designed you
to lead, and you're plugged in to The Grace Pipeline to Holy Spirit and
Heaven.
When
you first begin, you'll have to periodically remind your body and soul
they're not in control. You want to speak uplifting words to them, but
firmly let them know your spirit is a well-equipped response center
that's submitted to Jesus, who is your Head/Master.
I
guarantee you can overcome in every situation if you follow whatever
instructions The LORD gives you. Submit and resist is super simple. So,
do it. And, to anyone who says, "Easier said than done," or anything along those lines, that's your soul responding instead of your spirit. Level up, Saints.
This
is for responding when a situation has already come to you. Next time
I'll give some examples of how to actively resist attacks. If you really
want to level up, start commanding your life so that nothing enters
your realms without your decree.
I bless you in Jesus' Name and Authority.
