Many of us haven’t had a word of encouragement, nor a
validation, neither privilege, entitlement, prerogative, empowerment,
endorsement, inheritance, trust fund, bootstrap, leg up, or even a handout - to
give us the edge that many of our associates and colleagues have enjoyed and
partaken of (some since birth and for generations). Those are a lot of words, with much more
meaning behind them; and even more clout and influence that most do not
have. Unfortunately, those before us
didn’t receive those words either. The
only words that were passed down were poverty, funeral bills and an unhealthy
sense of helplessness and despair. Many
feel impotent and dysfunctional. We only
have a legacy of “find your way to get through, by just barely getting by”, nevertheless,
regardless of how powerful those words seem to be, all of those words have to
bow down at the Word of the Father, but our responsibility is to believe his
report and trust in his promise(s). (John
1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was
God. John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld
his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and
truth.) One word from God can produce the existence of a life that exceeds our
understanding.

Foreign Currency
The promises of God are Yea and Amen, however, there is a cost associated with it. There is a foreign currency called faith that converts our praise into the currency needed to make a withdrawal from heaven. Without faith we have an account that is overflowing but no way to gain access to it.
Vaccinate
We eradicate doubt by vaccinating it with Faith. Sin , poverty, depression, are all forms of disease that are meant to disable, destabilize, and destroy what it is that God called and purposed for us to do in this life. You vaccinate yourself by giving God all the praise, glory and honor through it all – the good, the bad and the indifferent. I don’t like getting a shot but more so I deplore being sick – Ergo, sometimes I do not like walking by faith but I would rather walk by faith and get all that God has for me rather than leave this earth having not fulfilled my purpose.
A Blind Eye
When you walk with God you see things in and through the spirit that you wouldn’t normally see with your naked eyes. God allows you to see the tricks of the enemy, his hand gets tipped and we avoid the traps and snares. But God also allows us to see HIM while in the battle, to know that there is more with us than against us. The battle is not ours to fight but to trust that the Lord of Host will fight our battles for us. We must not allow our praise to be stifled. Our enemy has a goal, and that goal is to blind us as to whom we are in Christ. Through the instrument of praise is where our enemy goes blind and is defeated.
Promise Pre-Approved
Most who have tried to buy a house tended not to be accepted
out the gate. Several creditors were
solicited for your loan approval – CERTAIN CRITERIA HAD TO MET (FIRST). Nevertheless, you kept on trying because you
had a goal and a desire to own a piece of the “Dream” but also to have your
place that you called your own. Well…
God has given us a “Promise” and most don’t receive anything other than a “vision”
at first – a “knowing” placed on your heart.
Many of us attempt to obtain them right off the bat, but you cannot allow
a rejection or delay to keep you from seeking the face of God and ALL that he
has in-store for us. God has several
lenders ready to bless you (Angels ascending and descending), but approval is
exclusively up to him and whether or not you are meeting the requirements that
he has set forth for us. However, through
the blood of Jesus Christ our “Promise” is Pre-Approved.
