Anointed to Win

Recently, I wrote on "2012, The Year of Extremes" and I pointed to the obvious things we are experiencing in the natural that is perplexing mankind. Sea life washing ashore in great numbers, fires, storms, heat, floods, droughts and the hearts of man reeling in fear and stress in regards to the evils and curses of this world.

After two days it was the Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread. The chief priests and the scribes were looking for a treacherous way to arrest and kill Him. Not during the festival, they said, or there may be rioting among the people. Mark 14:1-2

The hypocritical priests had just completed the Holy Days of Unleavened Bread which represents putting sin our of their lives. Their hearts should have been transformed as they should have taken the time to reflect on the sin issues of the inner man and rid themselves of anything that was not like God. But instead, they were still reeking in their sin and was thinking of ways to kill Jesus. Two opposing kingdoms stood against each other as the kingdom of the chief priest thought of treacherous ways to do evil and Jesus was building His Kingdom through love.

While you are sleeping; Satan is plotting your demise. Satan want you dead and will use any means necessary to destroy you. What you are experiencing is Satan's diabolical attacks against our minds through our thoughts and identity. We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but evil principalities. These principalities inject thoughts of fear, jealousy, envy and fear of lack or sickness, to bring us to a place of being ineffective in our walk with Christ and our ministry. We are told to "cast down" every thought and imagination that exalts itself against the knowledge of God. If God isn't the author of the thought or it is not a thought of love or encouragement to your inner man or others, then cast it down. Stomp on it; squash it; it has no place in your heart. You were created to WIN!

Many people are experiencing personal problems unlike anything they have ever had to experience before. Some are wondering what in the world is going on. We are in a season of extremes! That in and of itself is not necessarily a negative thing. I realize if I am facing unprecedented attacks from the outside, then I must also be experiencing unprecedented spiritual power from the inside. Our power source is the Holy Spirit and He is our confidence. The spiritual attack on the outside is to distract me from what is really going on inside of me. God has and is equipping us for a greater move of His glory to operate in Kingdom power.

Every demonic spirit recognizes the power that has been placed inside every Believer. Satan recognizes it even when we don't recognize what God has done in our lives. We have to stay connected to Father to walk in the confidence of His power, for He is the power source and our very breath. We don't have to proclaim to anyone who we are, for we are for the world already know and is reading our every move. What we say is good, but what we demonstrate is what the world will believe. There appears to be warfare on every side, for Satan desires that we question our identity concerning who we are in Christ and we must settle this point in our hearts and remind ourselves that we are of Christ and Christ is of God. Remember, this is spiritual warfare so Satan attacks our minds (thought processes) to cause us to doubt who God says we are and from doing what He has called us to do. We can't let anything stop us from being productive to an appointed end to win.

His kingdom, the kingdom of darkness, and the Kingdom of God are opposing one another. God's Kingdom stands tall against the kingdom of darkness. The Kingdom of God has already won the battle, but the kingdom of darkness don't have a clue that it is already defeated and recorded in the Books of Heaven and in our Book! The kingdom of darkness is in a horrible state of deceit and madness to not be able to discern that the Kingdom of Heaven has won, that Jesus established it and that is is standing strong against every power and principality. It has and is being established in the hearts of man to produce the glory of God on the earth.

As we see the shakings continue, remember that it is your time to change, ignite the fire within and be a power to be reckoned with. We are to be courageous and stand strong against every attack of the enemy because we are dress for the battle; we can't loose for our God is with us, for you are anointed to win.
