Just because someone has said it doesn’t mean you have to come into agreement with it. Many times in life, we sit back and allow people to talk about us and speak word curses over us, and sometimes we even do that to ourselves. God is calling to His people in this hour to rise above the natural circumstances and plow through disappointment because His grace is sufficient (2 Corinthians12:9), and nothing can separate you from His love (Romans 8:39).
No matter what you are facing in this season of your life, I guarantee it has not caught the Lord by surprise. Nothing gets by Him. He has seen every heartbreak, every mistake, every let down, and He has collected every tear you have ever shed. He is a God that is easily moved by our infirmities (Hebrews 4:15). He is our beloved who cares and helps us through it all.
Are you going to live defeated, or are you going to stand tall and declare that God is for you and nothing can stand against you (Romans 8:31)? No weapon formed against you will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). That you fight from a seated position in Christ. Set down at the table and eat in the presence of your enemies (Psalm 23:5). Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but God delivers us out of them all (Psalm 34:19). God is faithful that promised, and He watches over His word to perform it (Jeremiah 1:12). Hold fast to your confession and waver not.
Declare today: I am not going to quit. Declare I refuse to surrender. Declare I am more than an overcomer through Christ Jesus. I have read the back of the book, and I am a winner! I have been delivered, set free, and set apart to do His great works. I am an ambassador of the Kingdom (2 Corinthians5:20), and I represent Christ well.
Stop trying to fix things yourself and turn it over to the Lord who knows how to work behind the scenes. Start speaking faith over fear. Hope over despair. Victory over defeat. Square your shoulders and straighten your crown. The King is watching, and the King is coming, so be watchful and don’t get caught sleeping.
