If you are feeling a sense of suppression/depression/oppression, it is the enemy’s affliction.  His tactic is to attack the imaginations of your heart with pictures of darkness, gloom, a sense of hopelessness/helplessness/impossibility. He may use pictures of past experiences to reinforce that hopelessness. If he can get to your heart, he can make you remain down-down-dooby-doo-down-down. […]

Hebrews 4:1 NKJVTherefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. In the bible, God reiterates ‘fear not’, ‘worry not’ ‘be not afraid’ countless times. But there is only one place in the bible where He explicitly says to fear.  No,

Proverbs 4:23 NIVAbove all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Watch what enters our thought life, and what proceeds from our lips. When we ruminate on destructive, burdenful imaginations, these worrisome thoughts tear us down. Let not our hearts be filled with thoughts that trouble our heart. We cannot fight

God delights in us taking from Him. He does not deplete, and never runs dry. In fact, He increases in strength when we take from Him. What?! How is this so? In John 4:1-33, Jesus (in human flesh) was wearied from journeying and the disciples were away getting lunch for Him. That was when Jesus ministered to

Romans 11:6 NETAnd if it is by grace, it is no longer by works, otherwise grace would no longer be grace. Grace is not a doctrine.It is the person of Jesus Himself. Grace is undeserved, unearned, unmerited favour. Jesus took what we deserved (punishment, judgment, curses, death, etc.) so that we get to take all

Romans 8:2 NKJVFor the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. Recently, newly-emerged long-term covid symptoms were added to the list. Interestingly, God’s words have already deemed each of them as a lying symptom 🙂 Here are some examples: Amnesia – The

1 Peter 5:6-7 NKJVTherefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. God wants us to live care-free! Jesus took the crown of thorns, hammered into His skull, blood overflowing (John 19) – so that today

Romans 5:20 ESV…but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more… Grace = unmerited, unearned, undeserved favour Abounded all the more = huperperisseuo (in the greek) = hyper + overflowing In other words, where sin increased, grace SUPERABOUNDED / ABOUNDED BEYOND MEASURE.  This verse literally means that in any area of sin/weaknesses/failures/attacks, God has already

Matthew 3:17 NKJVAnd suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, ‘This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased.’ God declared these very words to Jesus right after He was baptised at the Jordan river. At that time, Jesus’s ministry has not yet begun. He has done no miracles, yet the Father declared Him

Isaiah 53:5b NKJVThe chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. The Hebrew word for ‘peace’ is shalom, which is such a rich word. It means completeness, soundness, welfare, safety, health and peace. Jesus is so interested in our entire wellbeing that He went through the chastisement (discipline of God)

Psalms 69:20 AMPReproach and insults have broken my heart and I am so sick. I looked for sympathy, but there was none, And for comforters, but I found none. That was Jesus at the cross. The pain He carried was breaking His heart, yet there was no one whom He could find comfort. Not even

Genesis 25:12-13 NKJVThen Isaac sowed in the land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him. The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous… God’s economy does not function like the world’s economy. In fact, it is the opposite! On one instance (Mark 8):Jesus used

Proverbs 18:21 NKJV Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. Praise Jesus that we have power in our tongue.When we speak, it carries weight.When we declare goodness on our lives, good things happen.   For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and

John 19:30 NKJV …He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.  When Jesus said it is finished, it really is. Everything pertaining to our lives has been finished at the cross.  Here comes the temptation: ‘But look! There are things that are not done. The dishes are not washed,

Mark 10:45 NKJVFor even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve… Yes, although it’s wonderful for us to serve God, that’s not God’s priority for us. Jesus came primarily to serve us (John 10:10, Matt 11:28). He wants us to take the place of the consenting sheep and Him taking
