We are walking in today:  We Thank God For the Holy Spirit!
Luke 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?  This verse is a remarkable reminder of God's perspective on what is good.  Present day Christian culture is so infected with consumerism, hedonism, narcissism, and other me-isms, that we develop a warped outlook on what is good in life.  Our prayers to God are often full of "give me" requests: that usually start as " Lord please give me a _____ or Father God I need a _____ and we usually fill in the blanks with a material things (money, machines, etc.) or a mate (future husband/wife) or something else that focuses on "me, myself, and I".  God, however, has a totally different perspective.  Our Holy Father defines a "good gift" as the Holy Spirit.  When God the Father looks upon His children as they struggle to cope with day-to-day living, He sees that what we need to thrive here on earth is not physical gifts, but the spiritual gift of the Holy Spirit, indeed!  Scripture tells us that in Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.  Accordingly, when Jesus was about to return to heaven, He promised His disciples to send the Holy Spirit to them.  Jesus even called the Holy Spirit by an unexpected, but revealing, name. "The Comforter," as He sent His disciples out into a world that would be hostile to them, that would imprison them, and beat them and kill them, what they needed to succeed wasn't a new car, or perfect teeth or a retirement plan!!  What they needed to live successfully, as God defines it, was the Comforter.  Jesus told them that the Comforter would do (at least) two key things for believers--the children of God.  1. Teach them the truth.  2. Provide constant contact with God.  The Holy Spirit teaches us the truth about life so that we won't be vulnerable to the lies of the devil that permeate the societies we live in.  So, for example: when society tells us that it is work and our careers that is the most important--the Holy Spirit reminds us that it is work in the kingdom of God that has lasting value.  Read this scripture for yourself today!  Matthew 6:19, 25-34.  The Holy Spirit indwells us so that we have constant (always on, better than broadband) access to God.  Amen!
Amen and glory to His name!!  What an awesome week to give thanks to God!  Thank You Lord for leaving us with the Holy Spirit!  That we can remain in contact with You.  The anointing breaks yolks, sets us free, is what Your example left for us to be encouraged.  You promised to never leave us nor forsake us, that You are the way out of no way, that You are our keeper late in the midnight hour.  We are Holy Ghost Spirit filled!  Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.  1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.  John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.  Romans 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.  We are to walk by faith and not by sight!  Zechariah 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.  Fiveamprayer, you better thank God for the Holy Spirit!  That is what keeps your mind and marriage, protects your children.  That is how we are covered with brand new mercies every morning!  Thank You God for the Comforter!!  He is doing a new thing!  If you are looking for a move of God it is by His Spirit, look at that scripture again, Zechariah 4:6.  We were once blind but thank You God, now we see!  Thank You for the Holy Spirit!   The Holy Spirit anchors our souls!  We can be bold when we speak to that mountain!  Mark 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.  When the flesh wants to get weak and speak of give up, the Holy Spirit rises up with a word from God--Hebrews 12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.  We can walk out this word, that He lays before us, that is how our steps are ordered.  Deuteronomy 5:32-33 32) Ye shall observe to do therefore as the LORD your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left. 33) Ye shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess.  We can walk in His word, because we have the Holy Ghost on the inside of us!  Thank You God for this good gift!!!  This changes us from the inside out.  Hold to this Him, late in the midnight hour!  He will not leave or forsake you!  Romans 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?  He is the way maker, and we give thanks unto Thee, Holy Spirit!  Praise His name!!  We lift up fiveamprayer, fill them with the Holy Spirit until they want no more!!  Let them know that is is already done!  We come to ask You, Lord for forgiveness for not following the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit in our lives at all times.  Thank You for forgiving us and casting our sin away--as far as the east is from the west, remembered no more! 

We seal this prayer in His precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.


Welcome to the overflow... 

You better walk through your weekend meditation!  Thank You for the Holy Ghost, that rises up on the inside of us to direct us--especially when our flesh gets weak.  That comfort that comes up saying, 'you are gonna make it!!  Hold on to the word!!  Don't let it go no matter what!'  Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our LORD: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.  We know that it is Christ in us that we are able to do all things!  Whatever you are going through, no matter what you are facing there is nothing too hard for God!!  Because the greater One lives on the inside of us who is greater than he that is in this world!  We must walk, talk and move in the Holy Spirit.  He will not mislead you!!  He is a good gift from above and is to keep you on the path of God's word, not going to the left or right.  The flesh and the attacks of the devil will try to have you speak, walk and move out of God's will.  Thank You Holy Spirit for rising up and letting us know that the battle is God's not ours!  That we can stand still and see the salvation of the Lord!  Thank You for Your Holy Spirit.  The holy power that keeps us!  Thank You Lord!  Jesus told us that He goes to prepare a place for us and left us with the Comforter.  Fiveamprayer, get wrapped up in and surrounded by the Holy Spirit.  He will guide, lead and direct you, so that you will make it through!  You may bend but you won't break, not beyond His repair.  When we have been walking in that wrong thing too long, we must be broken for God to really being the restoration process.  Trust Him--He has been in business for many years and there are so many testimonies of messy, ruined and terrible lives, restored to newness!  Hallelujah!  Thank You God!!  Take some time and look at Paul who is a perfect example of God's power to get you totally turned around and corrected.  Look at what can happen when you finally yield to Him and His awesome power!!  Praise His name!  Thank You God!  It is all by His Spirit, not by might, nor power!  It has nothing to do with you, it is the Holy Spirit on the inside of us!  Thank You for the Holy Spirit that Jesus left with us!  Thank You for this thanksgiving week of walking with You!!  You gave a new recipe and then sealed the week with a meditation on the Holy Spirit!  Thank You God for your grace and mercy, they keep showing up!  Fiveamprayer, we are empowered by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.  That is why we are to stand on this scripture, in the face of fear--Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.  It is because of the Holy Spirit that we are able to make it through the valley of the shadow of death, for God is with us!  Our Father has never lost a battle and He took back the keys to the kingdom.  Decide today to only operate by the Holy Spirit!  The devil is already defeated!!  We can say, Lord rise up, let out enemies be scattered!  Psalm 27:2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.  Thank You Holy Spirit for surrounding me!  We get a brand new word, when we sit at the feet of the Master, to learn of Him.  2011 is our season of abundance, many of us have been pressed in our finances, with our children and our marriages, then the Holy Spirit comes to let us know that many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers us out of them all!  That He is God and it is He that supplies all of our needs according to His riches in glory!  God is the great I AM, He is Jehovah Jireh.  Hallelujah!  Look at the devil, he is on the run now!  The Holy Spirit rises up with the scripture--Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.  We know that when the enemy comes in like a flood that the Lord lifts up a standard against it.  Fiveamprayer, walk in the Spirit of the Lord.  We serve a mighty God!  Who the Son sets free is free indeed!  So since you have been set free, why are you walking around here as if you were still bound?  Are you walking by faith and not by sight?  Are you holding to the word of God--2 Corinthians 3:17-18 17) Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18) But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.  He keeps us in perfect peace with our minds stayed on Him.  That is why we are instructed to meditate on His word, day and night.  Stop calling everyone else, go and call on His word!  We have gotta walk in this one, not just speak it.  These words must come to life in our lives!!  The devil is trying everything that he has and is not taking a break.  He will find out what you are made of.  Thank You Lord for the Holy Spirit!!  We have a weapon that is on the inside of us.  We are loaded daily with benefits.  A weapon that the world does not have, the Holy Spirit!!  There is nothing that the devil can do when we hold to and stand on the word.  That is why he comes to attack your mind, to get you confused and considering other faulty options.  Don't give in to those attacks, the devil is a liar!!  He is the father of all lies.  2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.  The devil is trying to attack your mind, marriage, your children and your finances.  But what is in your heart?  Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee. So we must pull down those strongholds.  No matter what has happened in your family, you must hold on to God's unchanging hand!  Stand on His word.  Be bold, fiveamprayer, He did not give us the spirit of fear.  Thank You Lord!!  Walk in the Holy Spirit!  Stop letting the devil into your mind to speak that nonsense to you.  Call on the intercessor, keep your mind in perfect peace.  Thank You Lord, You have given us so much!!  We have to really know who we are in Christ, and filled with the Holy Ghost.  It is the anointing that breaks yolks and heals.  We are made stronger, better and wiser.  Walk in the Holy Spirit all this weekend!!  Have a blessed day!
