Hebrews 10:16 ““This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,””
One of the most troubling aspects of this walk, is when the negative chatter seems to be speaking so loud, it troubles the mind, heart and soul!
Chatter is not just white noise, but at times can be things, places, people, etc. . . Remember Job, had a lot of chatter in his ear and he allowed that to trouble his mind, almost to the point it changed his thought of who he is - when he know that God made him to be who he is - Job 10:1 “1 “My soul loathes my life; I will give free course to my complaint, I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.”
There are some encounters that have been ordained for you to meet, but not mix!
The two seas meet but they don’t mix - Oil and water may meet, but they don’t mix
And because you know who you are in God, anything that desires to disrupt that, or change your mind, that needs to be cast aside!
God made you - be that - do not allow anything to convince you are less than that!
Regardless of what it is, we cannot let that change our minds - Romans 8:38-39 “38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” “Will be able to change my mind about The Love of God towards me!”
I am so convinced by The Holy Spirit of God - So much that even when it does not make any sense to continue on, I know because God said so, I must go forth - For He told me so!
Nothing will be able to change my mind about God’s Word, His Promises, His Faithfulness, most of all His Love concerning me!
I have come to realize that I must allow His Word (That Always Works) to not only speak, but remain established in my heart; which keeps me safe, encouraged, empowered, fortified, powered up and lets me know that He is for me, who can be against me!
The reason you must bring those negative imaginations into captivity - lock them up, throw away that thinking, is because it has the potential to change your vision, and you will begin to see the very thing that is set out to destroy, as it has power to accomplish it!
When knowing that God has placed in you His Word; Jeremiah 1:9 “9 Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth.”
God’s Word empowered Jeremiah to continue one, even when what he sees, hears or even tastes - desires to change his mind concerning Him!
God wants us to stop allowing those negative thoughts - situations - circumstances - trials and tribulations - trouble you so - He says, I have given you this and brought you here, why turn back now when I AM The One Who began the work!
Because of His Word and Power in you, you will be able to see clearly which will get God to cause Heaven to move fast on your behalf, for He sits High and Looks Low - Jeremiah 1:12 “12 Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.””
I have seen The Word that God has placed in me - work; therefore, I know that He has called me to this, therefore I will remain, regardless of the negative chatter!
Because you have not allowed that, to change your mind, God has allowed you to open up your eyes to realizing that He has already done it; therefore, I remain steadfast and immovable because God has established me for this, He has placed in me The Power and faith to continue on!
Nehemiah could have allowed the negative energy sent towards him from Sanballat and Tobiah became so angry because of nothing - you may need to be made aware of this, there are agents of the enemy attempting to trouble your mind with vain arguments, and threats, but God told me to tell you - Continue On - Build On - Wait On Him and you will see what the end will be!
1 John 5:4 “4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.”
Although it may seem as if the blessing comes with a struggle, even when you know that God has spoken to you to first - begin it, but more so continue on in it!
Yes - Because of the natural not looking like the faith I have in God’s Word - I must continue on
Even when the enemy, is really the inner me becomes the Sanballat and Tobiah (my own understanding, thinking, negative imagination) telling me that it is too much, we do not have enough, the deck is stacked against me!
As Tobiah ridiculed them about their work, saying that it would not stand, “even if a fox was to walk upon the wall, it would fall. . .”
The devil is a lie - When that thinking wants to interrupt the work of God you cast that care on God - Nehemiah 4:4-6 “4 Hear, O our God, for we are despised; turn their reproach on their own heads, and give them as plunder to a land of captivity! 5 Do not cover their iniquity, and do not let their sin be blotted out from before You; for they have provoked You to anger before the builders. 6 So we built the wall, and the entire wall was joined together up to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.”
God has not called us to a work that He has not already made provision for us to complete - We cannot allow the sound of negativity disrupt the purpose God has ordained for me in the earth - Jesus Christ has given us The Keys (letters that were given to Nehemiah by the king to build) and when we begin to use our key - Favor must be extended to us because God Said So!
God does not have to do anything because He Has Already Done It - Therefore, do not let that change your mind!
Even thought the vision is for an appointed time, as stated in Habakkuk 2:3 - we must continue on the assurance that because He knows the ending from the beginning of a thing and that God cannot lie, though it tarry, we must continue on because He has called it done - We live by Faith, therefore we see not the lack, we see the assurance of His Word!
God’s Word has already done the work - Jesus Christ said; “It Is Finished!” - We just need to allow His already spoken word - work - He is not making a way, nor is He manifesting His Word - We just need to speak from a place of “Already Done!” and we will see that God will cause you to continue on!
I cannot allow that to change my mind - whatever “that” is - if it is not aligned with The Promise - do not listen to it - We are too persuaded by The Power and Knowledge of God! Acts 20:24 “24 But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”
