El Shaddai, the God That Is More Than Enough!

Exodus 6:1-9; Amos 8:11-13; 1 Peter 2:2-3; Isaiah 55:1-2; Matthew 5:6; Exodus 3:2; Matthew 4:4; John 6:35, 47-49; Psalm 40:17; Isaiah 59:1; Proverbs 8:21; Hebrews 11:6; Matthew 6:19-20; Isaiah 54:1-3

We are walking in today:  El Shaddai, the God That Is More Than Enough!

Exodus 6:1-9 1) Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land. 2) And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD: 3) And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them. 4) And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers. 5) And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant. 6) Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments: 7) And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.  8) And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning the which I did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for an heritage: I am the LORD.  9) And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.  Moses is going to the children of Israel, in Egypt to preach a sermon of hope to them.  God says that He is going to lead them out of bondage.  He commands Mosses to go to the Pharaoh and demand the people's release.  The 10 plagues were about to begin, but the Israelites upon hearing the words of Moses, hearkened not in their suffering.  They doubted God's plan.  God however had said to Moses that He would keep His word.  He gave him confidence and remembrance of the covenant--in verse three.  These great miracles would be accomplished because He is Jehovah, the I AM the Self Sufficient One, the Everlasting God.  And as He revealed Himself to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: He is the Almighty God--El Shaddai!  The source of all blessings.  A God who is more than enough!  He would deliver them from Egypt by whatever means necessary.  Because, whatever means that were necessary were not outside of His ability.  Jehovah is the I AM.  El Shaddai is the more than enough God!  He is telling us, I AM more than enough!  He is still El Shaddai.  You can know it, you can try Him.  He is more than enough!  When hungry taste Him and He will please your spirit.  Amos 8:11-13 11) Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: 12) And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.  13) In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.  1 Peter 2:2-3  2) As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:  3) If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.  Isaiah 55:1-2 1) Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. 2) Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.  Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.  There is spiritual famine in the land today, but there is bread for the hungry.  Exodus 3:2  And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.  Matthew 4:4  But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.  John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.  John 6:47-49  47) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.  48) I am that bread of life. 49) Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.  He is El Shaddai, He is the bread of life!  In your trials, test Him--He will pass every test.  In Exodus 14, the Red Sea experience, the children of Israel were learning that God would pass the test!!  1 Kings 19, when Elijah called down fire from heaven--the people were there testing El Shaddai and Baal.  El Shaddai was and is more than enough to pass the test.  In Judges chapter 6, Gideon tried Him and God passes the test!! He passed the smoke test and the lion test in the book of Daniel.  He passed the test of the cross and the ages.  And He is not slack of His promises.  He is more than enough.  For your family, trust Him, He will provide--your every need.  When you are in poverty, 2 Kings 4, the pots of oil; when you are pleading, 2 Samuel 21, for the children.  When you are pressed, Genesis 20:22--Abraham and Isaac, children don't always understand, God will provide a way to demonstrate to them His provision.  Your heartbreak, tell Him and He will hear your prayers.  When you can't fix things yourself.  When it is all out of your control.  When it is like Hagar in Genesis chapter 21--weeping in the wilderness.  You have to put it out of your hand, into His hand.  Call on God, He will hear your cries.  When you are going down into the pit--He will incline His ear to hear you. (Psalm 30)  Psalm 40:17 But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.  Isaiah 59:1 Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear.  El Shaddai, is more than enough!!
Think about this, when you call on God today, He is our more than enough God--El Shaddai!  He is the Almighty God!  In this passage, He is getting ready to set the captives--the children of Israel free.  He is the God of more than one way out!  Turn it over to Him, walk in your God given authority--He is more than enough!  If He doesn't do another thing for us, He has done more than enough!  We have to really look at this, because in this culture we are always looking for more, the best deal or value--stop looking with your natural eyes!!  Look at this thing spiritually--if God had not came to redeem us, wash us in His perfect blood and teach us the good and right way, we would reap all that our flesh has earned.  Take a moment to think about where you will end up without being in Christ, covered and washed in the blood.  God, You have done so much all ready!!  Stop looking to the material things, collect and treasure the spiritual treasures that He gives--fruit of the spirit, a closer walk with Him.  The things of the world will burn up--do you have treasures in a sure place?  Proverbs 8:21(AMP) That I may cause those who love me to inherit [true] riches and that I may fill their treasuries.  We are the seed of Abraham, trust and believe in the promises that God has given us!  Matthew 6:19-20 19) Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20) But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.  We trust and believe that we can breathe, even though we can't see the air.  Because of His heir we are redeemed.  So we have something in the natural that follows the pattern from the spiritual.  The unseen is just as real as the seen.  You don't go around in a panic because you can't see the air and are holding your breath until you can?  So why are we holding out on God.  He has sent His word to guide, heal and deliver us.  We must not be slack in our study, seeking and searching of His word.  That is where we find the answers.  That is where He speaks to us!  You can't say that God is not speaking when you won't go to where He speaks!  You won't here what God has to say if you don't go where He dwells!   That is like saying that you can't hear the radio when it is turned off--of course not!!  Seek Him in His word, go where to His house where He dwells and hear from Him!!   Hebrews tells us what happens when we believe and are seeking Him--chapter 11 verse 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.  There is a reward for those that seek after Him.  Guess what the reward is?  Him!!  Our more than enough God!!  That should give you so much confidence for what ever you are facing, fiveamprayer!! Stand believing on His word, the word that He watches over to perform, that will not fail--that same word you are eating daily and meditating on!  Hallelujah!  That total trust leads us back to the God of more than one way!  Fiveamprayer He is our El Shaddai, He keeps us in perfect peace with our minds stayed on Him!  He is our El Shaddai, He has made us more than conquerors, more than victorious!  He is our El Shaddai, He is the maker of a way out of no way.  We must stop putting Him in a box.  There is no box that is big enough to contain Him!  He is so high and above!  When we put God in a box, we limit what He can do in our lives.  Because we are only believing Him for what can fit in that box.  Isaiah 54:1-3 1) Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD. 2) Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; 3) For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.  We are the ones who must stretch to allow God to break forth on the right and on the left.  There is nothing that He can't do--never approach your situation with what you can do--look to Him who can do all things, has all sufficiency, is the creator of the universe.  What better resume is there?!  He is our Source, our Provider, our All in All--step back and let God be God!  Our God is Omnipotent--almighty!  Our God is omnipresent, present in all places and times.  What better source could you ask for, being in total control of everything and seeing everything from the past, present and future, all over the world!!  That is why there is no lack in Him, He has all power and sees all things in all places!!  Nothing is hid from His watchful eye!  He is our more than enough God!!  Hallelujah!  Trust and believe, He can do it!  Cast off your flesh, walk in the spirit!    He is Jehovah Rapha, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Tsidkenu, Emmanuel, He knows the plans that He has for us!  His grace is sufficient.  Greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.  All things are working for the good of those that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.  He is our God of more than enough!!  We shall bless the Lord and His praises are to be continually in our mouths.  Call on Him, late in the midnight hour--He has more than enough to get you through, pull you through, to get you out.  We are no longer looking to man, we are only looking to Him!  He is a healer and has promised to never leave nor forsake us!  He is our friend, He is more than enough.  Fiveamprayer is calling on El Shaddai, fill us to the overflow!  You are the way out of no way!!  You promised us and we are calling on El Shaddai!  Some of us are having a wilderness experience, He is our peace, joy--more than enough!  Overflow blessings.  When we speak Your words, it is a sweet savor to Your ears.  God is saying He is more than enough!  He will provide and make a way for us!  He is that He is!  He is the Way, the Truth and the Life!  God that is more than enough.  We lift up fiveamprayer to know that You, Lord are more than enough for all of us and in every situation!  We must take God out of the box, stretch your faith, fiveamprayer!  Believe Him for all things, there is nothing too hard for God!  We lift up Yalonda Moore we know that You are a healer.  That by Your stripes she is already healed.  Lord we ask that You would touch her body, bringing healing and wholeness.  Lord we come to ask for forgiveness for getting in the way and thinking that we are god.  Thank You Lord for forgiving us with no condemnation.  Teach us Lord, how to forgive like You!

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:   El Shaddai, is our more than enough, knows the end from the beginning and the only one who can speak a word in our lives and situations. 

Welcome to the overflow...
We give You all the glory and all of the praise!  We know You are, our way out.  We don't doubt You, You are more than enough!  You thought it was over--it ain't over until God says it is over!  Hallelujah!  Whatever you need, He is more than enough!  For your ministry, your marriage, He is the Provider--more than enough.  All of the struggles financially can be there to teach you patience--God is the Provider, not the money.  Where is your mind?  On God or the money?!  We are gonna be more than alright, we serve the God of more than enough!!  When Jesus feed the 5,000 all were satisfied and they picked up 12 baskets that were left over, sounds like more than enough, to me!!  God is telling us that that He is the great I AM and that He is more than enough!  We serve a no limit God!!  So stop putting limits on Him!!  As Pastor Taffe has taught, we set the limits in our faith, and God meets us right where we set our faith!!    The same thing with needing all of the information and being able to see to go along and walk in His directions.  That is a limit that you are setting.  God does not give us a promise that we will fully understand the total plan and have full disclosure of everything that will happen on this walk!?!   He is looking for those that will trust, believe, and walk as He directs!!  God is not required to check in with you to see if you accept His plans.  You have made you own plans and how has that worked out!?  No more failure, get with the winning team, God's team!  So no more setting limits, asking if God can do this?  How strange, He tells us that nothing is too hard for Him, so where does that ' if ' come from?  That is doubt and everything else that is attached with it trying to put you off the path, to consider (wrongly) another way or option.  Without God there is no  other option to life eternal, being redeemed and washed in the blood.  This plan is all set up by Him, there is no going around Him!!  He watches over His word to perform it.  None of His words shall return void, they will accomplish all that He sent them to do!  Thank You God!!  He gave us some spiritual weapons of mass destruction in our prayer conference last year!!  Why are you not picking up your sword and swinging it to cut down those traps of the devil?!  The devil is still a liar, he is the father of all lies.  Thank You Lord, for letting us know that we are to pursue and conquer.  Be encouraged, fiveamprayer we serve a no limit God.  No limits, no boundaries...Time to take the limits off of our El Shaddai, He delivers us out more than one way and is more than enough!!  Walk in this one today!!  Be a doer of the word not a hearer only!  He is more than enough!!  Visit us on facebook and take time to read the scriptures for yourself.  Have a blessed day!

We Serve A More Than One Way God!!

2 Samuel 22:31; Job 23:10; Psalm 1:6,  27:11, 37:5; Proverbs 3:6; Isaiah 2:3, 58:8; John 14:6; Isaiah 40:3,  44:24; Genesis 18:14, 15:1; Deuteronomy 28:7,  32:30; Mark 4:27; Psalms 8:4

We are walking in today:  We Serve A More Than One Way God!!


2 Samuel 22:31 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.  Stop putting God in a box!!  Sometimes we think there is only one way out of a situation.  Some of us are believing that our job is the only way out.  We serve a more than one way God!  One way is defined, that moves and allows movement in only one direction--example a one way street.  Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding above what we could ask or think.  We serve a more than one way God!  Job 23:10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.  God will put you in one way and bring you our in another way.  Psalm 1:6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.  God will bind up the the ways of the wicked.  Psalm 27:11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.  Psalm 37:5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. When you don't know what to do or which way to turn--look to God, He will bring you out!  Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.  Isaiah 2:3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.  Isaiah 58:8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy reward.  John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.  God is the way out of no way!  There are many ways that He prepares us for battle.  Isaiah 4o:3 The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.  We serve a more than one way God!!  Yea and Amen!
I don't know about you, but sometimes I can't figure out which way to turn.  We are not asked of God to figure it out.  He asks us to trust and believe!  We may go in one way and come out another.  We serve the maker of a way out of no way.  He is the Way, the Truth and the Life!  It is He that goes before us making the crooked, straight.  He knows the way and the direction that He is leading us!  We are to trust Him, while leaning not to our own understanding, in all our ways acknowledge Him, that He will direct our paths.    Take God out of the box--there is nothing too hard to Him.  He is the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth!  Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself.  With all that goes into making the earth and the heavens and He is not able to handle your situation?!  Impossible!!  Jesus tells us in, Matthew 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.  So God can bring me out in a way that I have not considered?!  With a storm raging all around you, do you really think that you have considered every option?!  Not only are His ways not our ways, He has the best vision and sees all things in all times.  Genesis 18:14 Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.  Fiveamprayer, are you holding on for your appointed time?  Some times our question is not how but when.  Either way we are in the most, best and only capable hands to bring us out and through--right on time!!  God is making a way for us in our marriages, with our children, in our finances and in our ministries.  We will see more and more of who He is!  God is revealing more and more of His character to us!!  Thank You God!!  He is the way maker, He brings us out of darkness, into His marvelous light!!    He is all that He said and will deliver on every promise!  Which is hard for us to believe and understand--when we compare that to our previous experiences with people!  God wants to show you the truth, turn in that obsolete experience--no more dashed hopes or feeling foolish!!  Genesis 15:1 After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.  Fiveamprayer, we can have this because we believe and seek after Him!!  We won't be left or let down!!  God is with us!!  That is the most powerful thing that we can actually walk in, casting off every fear and doubt!!  With God backing us up, there is nothing that is impossible for us!!  We can do all things through Christ which strengthens us!  Deuteronomy 28:7 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.  Look at that--fiveamprayer, our God even will cause out enemies to flee from us more than one way!  What more do you need?  Nothing but more and more of Him!!  Count it all joy, God has this all in control, whether we see it or not.  We are to continue in faith and seeking after Him.  Hold on to His unchanging hand, fiveamprayer!  Where there are 2 or 3 gathered, He are in the midst also!  God will show up with all power and authority!  Deuteronomy 32:30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?  Now many times when people are fleeing they are leaving in many different directions!!  That is the work of the Rock that we stand on, a more than one way God!!  We are free to worship and praise Him! 
Take your God given authority over the things that come against you!!  God sent this message out for the saints to hear.  He know the plans that He has for our lives.  When the enemy comes in like a flood, God will lift up a standard against him.  God is raising the standard, we must look to God and not the situation!!  His grace is sufficient!!  Somebody is facing some thing right now.  He has already made a way for each and every one of us!  Are you looking in the right place?!  Look to God!!  He holds all the answers!  He is the Way, the Truth and the Life!    So many of us were brought out of things--in many different ways, but God!!  Those in need of healing, but God has already made provision for your health.  You don't know how it is gonna happen, that is not our job, we are to believe!!  The things that are to happen, happen with our knowing them or not.  Mark 4:27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.  Why are we looking all around, look to God He is making a way, a way that you don't see, it doesn't make a difference if you understand.  You are not the one who is signing off on the plan.  This is not in your hands, God is in control!!  The sooner that you can be ok in your not knowing and complete trust in Him, you will cease making moves that are all out of order and delaying what you are really seeking--closer relationship with Him, seeing Him move in a mighty and awesome way in your situation!!  Fiveamprayer, where are you looking?!  But God!  That is how we are still here, still standing, able to try again, to continue to pursue in this race--pressing towards the mark!  Are you lost and need help?  Look to Jesus--we serve a more than one way God!  We are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds.  Wash away the nonsense of the world that comes to distract and tear down your belief in His promises.  Too many times we are not letting go and letting God!  He tells us and gives us permission to cast our cares on Him!  Why because He cares for us!!  No one on earth can give you that kind of promise, no matter how pure there intentions are.  They are not sufficient to cover any and all situations that you may go through, but God can!!  Our God can do all things, but fail!!  He sees and knows it all!  Thank You Lord for keeping Your eye on us.  The Bible tells us that,  Psalms 8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?  You know that you are not thinking about and visiting those that you don't care about, don't have love for--look how God loves us with all that we have been through, going through and will go through.  He still loves us, will we stand still and let Him bring us out in the way that He chooses?!  Since we can't see a way out, how do we have an opinion about the exit strategy?!  Trust in, He who is well able in all situations, circumstances and tribulations to bring us out victorious--for His glory!  Hallelujah!!  Praise Him!!  Give Him praise while in the storm.  His grace is sufficient!  Don't miss God.  Hear what He is speaking!!  Thank You God for the seed of the word this morning that You have sown in out hearts.  You are the way maker, more than one way, out of no way!   God is so great and wonderful, we should praise Him without being prompted.  Get up this morning, don't lay down on God!!  He did not lay down on you, He went to hell and took back the keys to the kingdom and rose on the third day!!  It is God that has brought us over and through.  Fiveamprayer, we trust, believe--there is no where else to turn to.  There is no failure in God--His grace is sufficient!  Abound in His grace and mercy.  God is is control!!   He gives you joy in your heart--the joy of the Lord is our strength.  Thank You Lord!!  Where would we be without You!!  The enemy wants to bring up your past and say that you are not worthy.  That is true that is why we need Him to wash us, renew us and guide us.  As Pastor Taffe says, "where else can you go to get cleaned up?  Who goes out to get clean, rolling around in the dirt?"  Repent and turn from your old ways, seek His righteousness, His perfect way of doing things!  We are to die to our flesh daily, each day drawing closer and closer to Him and taking on His ways.  We have authority, against all that the enemy brings us.  We don't have to accept everything that come to the door, or every phone call that rings your phone.  Do not willingly accept those things that are not for or good for you.  Deny depression, flat-out refuse fear, hang up on hate--we are to be the head and not the tail, above only not beneath!  Depression, fear, hate are all tools of the devil--that is not the tool box that we are to use!!  Take up your joy, trust and love--walk as Jesus walked, He is our example of how to walk in this life.  Relying and trusting on the heavenly Father.  You are trusting in He who knows the end from the beginning and the beginning from the end.  He is ready, willing and able.  Have faith, fiveamprayer!  Thank You God!  Hallelujah!  You loved us before we loved ourselves!  Let us plant seeds of love in our words, deeds and thoughts.  Have us to walk in a spirit of love.  Thank You Lord, it is all fixed and repaired!  Thank You for bringing us together today, walking in Your power and authority.  There is power in His name!  We have power from on high!  Give Him glory, honor and praise!  We plead the blood over every household that is represented here today, with God's covering and protection.  He has given us authority over the attacks.  He is worthy to be praised!  Who the Son sets free is free indeed!  We are no longer captive.  Hallelujah!  He reveals the tricks of the devil, He would not have us be ignorant.  Thank You for setting us free!  Trust Him, He knows!  Thank You Lord for showering us with Your perfect love.  We are casting off the spirits of fear, doubt and indecision.  We walk in the spirit of His authority!  We serve a more than one way God!

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:  Thank You for not being a one way God!!

Welcome to the overflow...
He is the way out of no way.  Thank You God for who You are!  How Your Holy Ghost power has shown up on this line this morning.  Thank You Lord for what You have done.  Without You, there is nothing we can do.  Call on Jehovah Rapha for healing--we lift up those to You, who are in need of healing.  There is no other help.  You have given us wisdom to see that You are a more than one way God!  Thank You for manifestation of Your Spirit.  Thank You for bringing us through the first month of this new year.  Thank You for the spiritual authority that You have given us!!  Fiveamprayer, keep walking this thing out, in position on your knees--seeking after Him!  Thank You for the prayer conference.  We know that there is power in Your promises.  We are walking in the overflow.  Thank You for the power and we wait in expectation.  We lift up those that appear to be fallen, we ask that You redeem them.  There are things that look turbulent and we lay them at Your feet.  Lord we ask that You move in a mighty way, continue revealing more and more of You to us.  Strengthen fiveamprayer to hold on to Your word.  To speak Your word boldly in any situation.  The mighty warriors are in position, covered by the mighty name of Jesus!  It shall come to pass! 
Several people prayed today to show that there is more than one way to pray.  We serve a God of more than one way!  Visit us on facebook, take time out to read the scriptures.  Have a blessed day!

I Have Laid Down My Isaac.

Genesis 22:2-3, 7-8, 10, 16; Hebrews 12:1-3; Luke 5:3-7

We are walking in today:  I Have Laid Down My Isaac.

Genesis 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.  It is well, we have laid down our Isaac's in our lives.  Look at the woman who's son had died and it took her faith in God to raise him from the dead.  Abraham laid down Isaac by faith.  Fiveamprayer we must lay down Isaac--have faith in God  What is the Isaac in your life?  Your marriage, singleness, finances, job ect.  Lay down your Isaac.  Genesis 22:3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.  Lay down your Isaac.  It is well.  Genesis 22:7-8 7) And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering? 8) And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.  Lay down your Isaac.  Prepare yourself to truly walk by faith!  Genesis 22:10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.  Lay down your Isaac and trust God.  Genesis 22:16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son.  The blessing is in laying down the Isaac in your life!!
Oh you gotta come on this morning and give God some glory!  You better get up this morning and give God some praise!  I have laid down my Isaac!!  I don't know about you, but that is why it is well--holding on to your mustard seed faith and laying down our Isaac.  We walk by faith and not by sight.  Trusting in and leaning on God in our marriages, singleness, children and jobs, it is well!  God wants to know if you believe Him.  Will you give Him your Isaac, give Him the precious for His sake?  We choose to surrender and submit it all to Him.  We have so many issues--we lay them down at Your feet Lord.  Fiveamprayer, can you walk it out?  Can you hold on and walk in obedience?  We are not to lean to our own understanding--trust God!  Depend on Him only, acknowledging only Him.  We come to lay down our Isaac--all this is possible, trust and believe.  What are you holding on to that God has said to lay down?!  God we come to You today to lay down the Isaac's in our life.  He will bring us out--all things work together for the good of them that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.  Lay down the Isaac.  What is it that keeps bugging you, keeps you up at night?  You can't fix it, trust God.  Who has Isaac's on this line?  Time to lay them down and trust God.  Choose to lay them down in your life.  Fiveamprayer we have been instructed here in Hebrews 12:1-3 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, 2) Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3) For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.  We must be free of the other things to be able to focus on what He has for us to do.  Otherwise you will be weary and not able to continue in this fight.  Any athlete knows that they must train and practice, there is also point of rest to renew.  Laying down the Isaac in our lives, frees us up to walk in more obedience and exercise more faith in God.  In which turn God has His own response, showing up because our faith and actions are calling to Him.  Not getting caught up in your own intellect but trusting in the intellect of the Almighty!  Basically Abraham, told Isaac it is well, when his son inquired about a sacrifice.  He went up to the mountain with total trust that God is in control and that He will provide whatever is needed.  God is looking to show Himself mighty in our lives but can He trust you?!  Will you give Him all of the glory?  Give Him all of the praise?  Continue to die daily to the flesh and seek more and more of Him?  To receive that kind of access and reward, we must be tried.  Otherwise we could be put into a dangerous situation--out of agreement with God.  Out of line with His word, even so out of line that we must be refined.   That is why months ago were put on the alter, to burn up all of those fleshly ways and thoughts.  We are to look to His ways and thoughts.  Especially when we don't understand them all, we can trust in He who paid our ransom and continues to teach us the good and right way.  Our trust is not misplaced, it is in He who is able to give us more than we could ask or think.  When all hell is breaking loose, He is in the midst.  Do we see Him?  Are we still trusting Him?  Holding on to His word--it is well?  This is not something to just consider and not do.  This is a call to action to really trust God and let it go.  Set it down!!  You are not surrendering your Isaac over to some one who is not able to care for it.  The question is, will you let it out of your hand and believe that God has it all in His control?  Not going back to pick it up, not trying to give God tips on what to do.  Really letting it go and walking away, not looking back?!  It takes faith to do that.  That is why our example today is Abraham, the father of faith and we are his seed.  God came to tell us this week that His strength is made perfect in our weakness.  Will you surrender and let God have His way.  We had asked Him to bless us indeed, any way You see fit God.  The same goes for when we surrender.  We trust You indeed, we know that You are well able to handle this!  We have placed our Isaac in good hands.  Then look at what happens next, God provides a ram in the bush, our surrendering to God does not have us walking away empty handed.  We will leave with more revelation of who He is.  We will walk away with a testimony of trust in God.  We are encouraged that God is real and true!  Thank You God.  God doesn't have us do something in obedience and we walk away empty.  Luke 5:3-7 3) And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. 4) Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. 5) And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. 6) And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. 7) And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.  Look at Simon's response when he sees that God is blessing him with a overflow, he calls to others to receive as well.  Will you share the goodness of the Lord with others?  Will you give opportunity for God's glory to shine on others when He is blessing you?!  That is a part of what the refining does, removes that fleshly mind that would not be obedient to God in the first place nor share the blessings once received.  He is able to do more than we could ask or think!  When all hell is breaking loose, He is in the midst.  Think about that--keep walking in His word, speaking His word, meditating on His word.  It took faith to walk as Abraham, he is the father of faith and we are his seed.  We have His strength in our weakness!  Stop walking in disbelief.  Lord help our unbelief!  We are not gonna try to fix it any more, we turn it all over to You.  We have to walk this out by faith.  God is coming by with a word, it is well, lay down your Isaac.  Lay it down at His feet.  Set it at His feet and walk away.  He is God--He doesn't need any help.  The load may be heavy but it is not more than you can bear.  Some of us are carrying so much that we need to lay down that Isaac.  So are you gonna trust in the Almighty?!  He is calling the faithful, those who won't give up!  Will you follow where God leads?  Father of faith, Abraham, walked up the mountain with only His son to offer up to sacrifice.  Saying God will provide.  We are to move when God instructs us to.  Be still when He says.  Hold our peace when He tells us, fiveamprayer.  It is well!  I am laying down the Isaac's in my life!  Believe it and receive it!  Thank You God!  Thank You God!!  Lay down the Isaac in your life!  Sacrifice something precious to God.  God is looking for total sacrifice!  Some times it is a sacrifice of praise, lifting up His name in the midst of your circumstances.  We are to trust in God, not man.  Trust God because Abraham said the Lord will provide.  That is why he named the place Jehovahjireh, the Lord provides.  What is it that we need to give up?  What do we surrender to Him?  What to submit to God?  Lay down your Isaac, it is well because you have laid down your Isaac.  We walk by faith and not by sight.  The joy of the Lord is my strength!  What a sacrifice!  Trust Him with that one thing.  You keep trying to fix it and God is saying, give it to Me!  Not later coming back and picking it back up.  Trust in Him, give it over to Him, stand on His word.  Don't make a vow to God and then take it back!!  Be not double minded.  We are to walk by faith and not by sight--no matter how it appears to our natural senses.  Our response is, it is well.  Fiveamprayer, be anchored in His word--steadfast and unmoveable!  We are to pray without ceasing.  We shall reap the harvest if we faint not!  We are to count it all joy. That is the one, He is looking for--praising Him continually, blessing Him at all times.  Lay down your Isaac.  You can praise Him at all times!!  Experience the miracles and His presence.  You will see, but not if you will not lay down your Isaac.  He knows it is a sacrifice.  There is victory in the sacrifice.  Lay down Isaac, operate in the spirit.  We come to life up fiveamprayer, for them to each lay down their Isaac's at Your feet.  We can have the faith of Abraham.  We come to sacrifice even ourselves on the alter.  Thank You Lord for forgiving us!  God we repent, and let Your will be done!  We can respond like Job, though He slays me, yet will I trust Him!  Someone feels like they are being slayed right now--yet will you trust Him?  Lay down your Isaac.  Take it up to the alter and lay it down. 

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:  We are a living sacrifice!!  What would You have us to do?  We will do it, Lord.

Welcome to the overflow...
Fiveamprayer is laying down the Isaac's in our lives.  The battle was never ours it has always been the Lord's.  We walk by faith and not by sight.  We are trusting in Your word, God.  It is well.  Thank You God!  We lay it down!  It is well!  You should feel lighter, from laying down your sacrifice, your Isaac.  We have to remember that His ways are not like our ways, nor are His thoughts like our thoughts--they are higher!  Lay down your Isaac.  Walk through this weekend meditation--one of us is in trouble, God can do all things, His strength made perfect in our weakness, it is well and lay down your Isaac.  Trust Him and walk it out.  Nobody but God could put this together!! And we give God all of the praise and glory!  Hallelujah!  Thank You God! Who the Son sets free is free indeed!  When you lay down your Isaac, God moves like never before!  Have you got that mustard seed faith?!  Lay down your Isaac.  Hallelujah!  Thank You Jesus!  Obedience is better than sacrifice.  Imagine going with a different word this morning!  God will provide a ram in the bush--reconciliation in our marriages.  He is Jehovah Jireh.  He always closes out the week on a high!!  Thank You God!  Visit us on facebook and take some time to read these scriptures for yourself.  Have a blessed weekend--lay down your Isaac!

It Shall Be Well!

2 Kings 4:4-37; Hebrews 11:6; 1 Kings 8:56-57; John 11:25-26; Revelation 1:18; John 19:30

We are walking in today:  It Shall Be Well!

2 Kings 4:17-23 17) And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life. 18) And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers. 19) And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother. 20) And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died. 21) And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out. 22) And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again. 23) And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well.  We all face problems in this world.  Seasons of sorrow, sickness and financial troubles.  They are simply stepping stones to a stronger and more mature faith.  When troubles come, we can wisely choose to pray and praise God--trusting that He will deliver us at just the right time.  Or grumble and complain which starts nothing--makes us and everyone around us miserable.  Elisha was a man mentored by a great man, the prophet Elijah.  During his training period, he learned many valuable lessons from his spiritual father and friend.  So God could use him to do many great miracles.  After Elijah's death the prophet Elisha did a lot of traveling for the Lord.  One day when he was on his way to Shunem--a kind woman invites him to dinner at her home.  After the meal she said to her husband, I believe this is a holy man of God.  He passes by our house often, let us make a special guest room for him--in the room place a bed, table, stool and candlestick.  Elisha was very grateful for the hospitality of the woman.  He said to his servant, Gehazi call the Shunammite woman, when she stood before him, he asked what favor they could do for her.  The woman was content and asked for nothing.  Elisha asked his servant, Gehazi if he had any suggestions for a gift for the woman.  Gehazi answered, the woman has no child and her husband is old.  In those days a woman who had no children was considered to be cursed by God.  Elisha told the woman by this time next year, you will embrace a son.  The woman said, please don't lie to your handmaid.  She conceived and bore a son, just as Elisha had promised.  When the child was older, one day he was out in the field with his father and the reapers.  Suddenly his head began to hurt.  So his father, had him carried to his mother.  The woman held him in her lap until noon and the boy died.  She took the child and laid him in the bed of the man of God and shut the door.  The woman asked her husband to call one of the young men to saddle the donkey, so she could go to and find Elisha.  Since she had not told her husband that the child had died, he asked why do you want to go to him today?  It is neither the new moon or the sabbath.  The woman quietly answered it shall be well.(2 Kings 4:23)  She instructed the driver to go as fast as he could and not to stop unless she told him to.  The woman came to mount Carmel and Elisha spotted her in the distance.  He said to Gehazi, this is the Shunammite woman.  Run and meet her, ask if everything is all right.  Gehazi inquired about the well fare of her family.  She replied it is well.  Did you hear her reply?  She went and held on to Elisha's feet, Gehazi went to push her away, but Elisha said to leave her alone.  She is bitter in spirit and the Lord has hid it from me.  The woman asked, my lord did I ask you for a son?  Didn't I beg you not to deceive me?  Elisha said to Gehazi to go and lay his staff on the face of her child.  The mother said, as the Lord lives and as my soul lives, I will not leave you.  Gehazi ran ahead and laid the staff of Elisha on the boy's face but he didn't move.  Gehazi ran back and told Elisha, the boy didn't move.  When Elisha entered into the house--he realized the the child was dead.  He went up into the room and shut the door--praying fervently to the Lord.  Elisha laid on the boy, mouth to mouth, eye to eye until the boy became warm.  The child sneezed seven times and opened his eyes.  Seven is the number of completion.  It is well.  There are times in our own lives, when sickness or death comes to our door.  The Bible is full of accounts that give us hope, strength and faith to believe the impossible.  This woman had great faith!  For, even after her child died she spoke words of faith to her husband--it shall be well.  She didn't waste time feeling sorry for herself.  Or talking to a dozen of her friends about her problem.  She knew that God alone held the power to heal her son.  Her words of faith and quick response to her problem, brought Elisha to the rescue.  Gehazi was Elisha's servant but did n0t have the faith for God's healing power to work through him.  Elisha prayed first then followed God's instructions to lay upon the child.  When his first attempt failed, he did not quit or give up hope.  God worked and showed His miracle working power--to her family and friends.  Too often we miss out on our miracle by speaking negative words out our our mouths.  Like they say, there is no hope.  There is nothing we can do.  He is terminal.  Things will never change.  He'll never get better.  The Bible says, in Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.  The same God that raised the woman's child from the dead--loves and promises to never leave nor forsake us!  1 Kings 8:56-57 56) Blessed be the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant. 57) The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us.  Blessed be the name of the Lord!  He loves us so much that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus on the cross as a sacrifice for your sins and those of the whole world.  God raised Him up also from the dead--and He conquered all of the powers of satan and evil.  Beloved do you have a dead circumstance in your life?  Jesus is standing at the door of your heart, waiting with open arms.  He alone holds the power to breathe life and hope into your future.  He can heal the brokenhearted, and bind up their wounds.  All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.  Jesus said, in John 11:25-26 25) Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26) And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?  Revelation 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.  It is well!
I know in the beginning, I said it shall be well, as our faith is strengthened by meditating on His word we come to know that it is well!  Fiveamprayer, it is well--in every storm, trial, tribulation and test.  Don't give up hope.  God is the only one who can breathe life into your situation!!  If someone asks you, how you are doing, your response should be it is well.  We serve the Living God who is our Savior!!  The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy!  We look to God, He is our help!  It is He that can do all things, that is why it is well!  He told us this week we are to look to His strength!  That is how we can stand on, it is well by my soul!  We rest contented because we are resting in He who is able to hold us up, cover us, keep us, protect us, provide for us--how could it be anything else but well?!  Why are we not looking, trusting, believing in His Almighty, awesome power!?  No more--it is well, my Father has already said it is so!   Deuteronomy 8:1 All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers.  That is why we can stand on it is well, God keeps showing up letting us know that He has it all under His control.  Follow His way, do not turn from it.  God even gives us a way back to Him, if we get lost, repent and turn back to Him!!  God tells the children of Israel many times to follow Him and He will protect and provide for them.  Being kept and provided for sounds like it is well to me!!  That total trust in One who is well able to deliver on every promise!  The One who is not slack regarding His word.  The One who watches over His word to perform it!!  Thank You God!!  You are the only one who can do these things!  So our trust is misplaced, looking anywhere else!  It is well!!  Because we are standing and believing in Him and His word!  It is well with my soul!  With all hell breaking loose, it shall be well!  You gotta have faith!  Trust that He will do it!!  He will fix it!  He is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him!  It is well, it is well!  You have got to get this one!  Keep telling yourself that it is well, really get this one down in your spirit!  Walking in, it is well--is a stepping on total faith in God.  That He won't let you fall, that He keeps you high above when the floods break forth.(Psalms 32:6)  We serve a God who has enough healing in the hem of His garment to restore and renew our health!!  By His stripes we were healed.  It is already done and finished!!  John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.  Healing is a part of Jesus' perfect work that was completed on the cross.  It is well.  We lift up those for healing with it is well in our hearts, looking to He who is well able to supply all that is needed!  Thank You Lord!!  Hallelujah!  There is none like You!  Thank You Lord, for coming by this morning with a rhema word.  For everything that you are facing, your response is, it is well.  Pull it down for the supernatural down into the natural!  It is well!  Thank You Lord!  Thank. You. God!  Thank You God for who You are!!  The maker of a way out of no way!  When our back is against the wall, He is the wall!!  What if we walked in the knowledge that we have a way our automatically?  No more freak out, worry or panic?  That we just hold our peace and walk in it is well!  That our words, actions, heart and mind are focused on one thing--trust in the Lord and allow Him to be God.  That He could bless us indeed, any way that He chooses.  Knowing that He is our heavenly Father and that it is His good pleasure to give unto us, His children!  How much time is freed up, walking in it is well?  No more cluttered minds--trying to figure it out.  Or running around to ask 50 people what they think and then try to cobble together a plan with nothing substantial to hold it together.  No more getting frustrated and speaking all kinds of negative things against what God has already promised you.  No more being stressed out and accepting anything that comes because you may feel that you deserve--that is nonsense!!  Stand on His word.  Trust in Him.  Keep looking to God.  That is how we get to, it is well!!  When we can really get our faith functioning in spite of how circumstances look, we are no longer swayed by the rumor mills or the bad news--it is always well because we are in the Lord and He has already taken care of everything.  We just have to walk it out in obedience.  Not going off and following our own bright ideas based on nothing substantial!!  Bless those who have prayer requests, those known and unknown.  You know what they stand in the need of.  They come asking You, because they believe that You are and able to deliver, keep, restore, provide!  We come asking that You breathe life on each situation that has been lifted up today.  We cover these requests with Your blood.  Forgive us Lord for our sins.  We don't always come to you first or we try to be You and fix it ourselves.  Thank You Lord for forgiving us, for casting our sins as far as the east is from the west, that they are remembered no more.  Teach us Lord how to forgive others that we may be forgiven and our prayers are not hindered.  Because of how You cover each and every one of us, we can say it is well with our souls!  Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers them out of them all!  He is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him!  You have gotta read 2 Kings chapter 4 for yourself!  We must learn to walk in the faith that this woman had.  She did not believe that her son had died, she got into motion to seek out God!!  She went to who was able to handle her situation, not only that God gave her that son, and God is responsible for all that He gives us.  That is a part of His guarantee!  So that is why she could stand on it is well, it shall be well.  She knew who is in control!!  Hallelujah!  We have a new response!!  The devil is a liar, he will not steal away our joy.  It is well!  Keep telling yourself that until you get that down in your spirit.  No more of believers rolling over and crumbling.  It is well!  Nevertheless, Thy will be done!  You have got to believe it!!  He is the one who lives! Fiveamprayer, how are you doing, this morning---it is well.  There is power on this line because we are in agreement.  We stand on Your word, this morning!!  We won't move, we are steadfast, unmovable!  The joy of the Lord is our strength!  It is well!!  Speak it out of your mouth!!  It is well.  The devil is an defeated foe.  It is well and we believe it!  It is well.  Hallelujah!  It is well!  Thank You God!  You have got to give Him some praise for this one!!  How are you doing?  It is well!  Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil!  In every test, trial, or tribulation--it is well.  He told us to count it all joy!  Don't fall a part, it is well.  The devil is still a liar!  I said it is well and I mean that!  I am walking in this one!!  It. Is. Well.  Thank You Jesus!  We must have this woman's response, it shall be well, it is well.  Many of us are facing things that appear to be dead:  marriages, children, and finances.  Our response is--it is well.  Thank You God!!  Thank You for fiveamprayer!!  Who the Son sets free is free indeed!  One of us is in trouble, it is well!  Tell everyone you meet, it is well with me!


We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit: It shall be well, because it is well!

Welcome to the overflow...
Your word will not come back void!  He went to hell to take back the keys to the kingdom!  He got up on the third day with all power in His hands!!  Don't worry or fret.  We can do all things through Christ which strengthens us!  In every trial, struggle, or tribulation we can say, "it is well with my soul!"  We thank You this morning God!  Some of us have been given an expiration date by the doctor.  The devil is a liar!!  We serve Jehovah Jireh, the Lord who provides for us!  He makes a way for us and provides all that we need.  You know that you have been pressed, the enemy is coming against us, the Lord lifts up a standard.  It is well.  It is not about feelings!!  The joy of the Lord is our strength!  The devil will try to worry you, to get you to speak death--keep your mind stayed on the Lord, He keeps you in perfect peace!  Weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning!!  It is well with my soul!  Look at the woman in 2 Kings, she went to seek after the man of God after her son died, not stopping to do anything else!  She was in motion to get a word from God, seeking after the only one who could restore what was lost.  Knowing who is able to do it and not being distracted by anything.  When we are going through are we seeking God with that kind of determination, that kind of focus?  Shutting down and tuning out everything else but Him?!  Turning all that you are to a concentrated focus on the Almighty!  That is why He told us that His strength is made perfect in our weakness.  When we come to realize that we can't do it, don't waste time going all over.  Go to God!  Stay before Him, tarry in His presence, in His word.  I'm talking about a focus of intense attention on Him.  You know what it is like when someone is staring at you.  When it is so intense that you have to turn around and look to see who it is that has all of that focus on you, who is staring at you.  Let God know that you are serious and are looking to Him only, so much so that your line of sight only contains Him!!  That there is nothing else in your view.  That God is so enlarged, singular before you, you can't see nothing but Him and more of Him.  It is is like when things are our of focus that you are not able to make out what is in the picture.  But when you change the perspective, the focus you can realize what the picture is.  Be like that with God just so up close to Him that if you look up, down, left, right or even turn around that all you can see is God!  Have a single vision and the focus is on God!  When you have that kind of focus your only response is it is well.  That is the only state of response, that focused attention, on the Almighty, what else can you say?!  You are covered, surrounded, enrobed, engulfed, immersed by the Lord.  What can come against you in the shelter of His wings?!  It is well.  In your ministry, your marriage, your children, your health, your family, your job, your finances--every area, it is well!  We must say it with authority and power.  Jesus gave us back our authority, why are you not using it?!  God said in 2012 we will see.  He is giving us revelation and manifestation of His glory!  Others around you will ask, how can you say it is well, with all that is going on in your life?  Let them know you have a Keeper and that there is room for more!  That should be our response for the rest of the year, it is well!  Look to the Father, He provides all of our needs! 

Look For His Strength In Your Weakness.

Psalm 61:1-2; 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, 13:4; Psalm 73:25-26; 1 Corinthians 1:8-10, 15:42-44; Philippians 4:11-14; Psalm 46:1; Exodus 33:14; Matthew 6:33; Hebrews 11:34; Psalm 8:4

We are walking in today:  Look For His Strength In Your Weakness.


Psalm 61:1-2 1) Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. 2)From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.  God said unto us, My grace is sufficient, for you.  For My strength is made perfect in weakness.  Fiveamprayer, walk with me:  on Monday, One Of Us Is In Trouble, Tuesday, God Knows All Things and then today, in our weakness, we need to look for His strength!  He knows all things about one of us being in trouble.  But our weakness is His strength--in us!  2 Corinthians 12:9-10 9) And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10) Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.  2 Corinthians 13:4 For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.  Psalm 73:25-26 25) Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. 26) My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.  2 Corinthians 1:8-10 8) For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life: 9) But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead: 10) Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us.  1 Corinthians 15:42-44 42) So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: 43) It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: 44) It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.  His strength is in us!  Philippians 4:11-14 11) Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12) I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13) I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. 14) Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.  Matthew 11:28-30 28) Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29) Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30) For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.  God knows what you are going through.  So look to His strength in your weakness.  Our problem is that we try to figure it out ourselves.  Our problem is we try to think that we can carry the weight.  It is like when you are a child and look to your father for help, to open a jar for example.  There isn't any doubt that he can open the jar and he will open the jar because you are his child and well loved.  The jar is like any other but you are not able to open it.  Instead of continuing  to struggle you bring it to him and he opens it with ease.  Knowing that you have someone to be your strength in any situation should no longer give you pause.  God is with us!!  He makes a way for us.  He has plans for and thoughts of us!  Why continue to struggle under all of that weight, your Father is here for you, ask Him!  He is looking for an invitation from us--God is a gentleman He does not force His way in.  Now don't go and ask for His help and then complain all the while.  He knows what He is doing--God knows it all!!  How can you with your limited intelligence even if you are a rocket scientist, still you can't out think God!!  God has told us on yesterday, He will not put more on us than we can bear!!
Lay aside every weight that would so easily beset us.  Fiveamprayer, cast your cares on Him, for He cares for you!  In our weakness His strength is made perfect.  We must look to His strength, not our own ability.  He knows all things!  Trust in His word and walk in His word.  Look for His strength to bring you over every mountain.  We look to the hills for our help, our help comes from the Lord!!  Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Keep looking for His strength in your weakness!  Look for His strength in your marriage, children, and finances.  It is God who keeps us in perfect peace when we have our minds stayed on Him!  Lay aside every weight, trust in His word!  Seek Him--in prayer and fasting.  Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.  When there is no way, He makes a way of escape for us!  He may say, "be still and know that I am God."  Or He may say as He told Moses, Exodus 33:14 And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.  Fiveamprayer, look at that--He will go with us!  We are not in this alone.  Trust Him, He is bringing us out and through!  Faith without works is dead.  His strength is made perfect in our weakness.  We must seek, ask, and knock.  Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.  Don't be weary in well doing, we must seek after His strength, not our own.  No one else can do it but God!  Look for His strength in your weakness!  We can do all things through Christ which strengthen us!  We know that the greater one lives on the inside of us!  Ask the spirit man on the inside to rise up, so you can walk it out.  His grace is sufficient.  Hold on to the word of God.  As Job said, thou He slays me, yet will I trust Him.  He will do it!  He is our all in all!  God is.  He is our El Shaddai, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Rapha, Jehovah Shalom, Jehovah Tsidkenu, Emmanuel.  He is the way out, look to His strength in your weakness.  He is our all in all.  Turn it over to Him.  One of us is in trouble!  His strength is made perfect in weakness.  We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown.  Have them to know Lord that Your strength is made perfect in our weakness.  Have them to really walk in the understanding that our strength is from you and perfected in our weakness!  Hebrews 11:34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.  Look at the mighty arm of the Lord!!  Our God is!  We come to ask for forgiveness, Lord.  We keep getting in the way, trying to help You out.  Forgive us for not stepping back and letting You handle it.  We bring it to You and then latter pick it back up.  We truly lay it down at your feet and will not pick it back up.  We are made strong by You in our weakness.  Thank You Lord for forgiving us with no condemnation, casting our sins into the sea, where they are remembered no more.  Help us Lord to forgive so that we are forgiven as well.  Everything that we need is in Him.  Hallelujah!  Glory to Your name! 

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit: Rest in the peace that God brings, the peace that surpasses all understanding!!  Fiveamprayer, He is our Jehovah Shalom!

We must die to the flesh daily, walk in your spirit man.  Look to God's strength, in your weakness.  He can do all things!  He knows all things!  Lead us to the Rock that is higher than I!  God told us yesterday, if we make our bed in hell, He is there too.  Thank You Lord for Your restful peace that is covering us right now!!  Take your eyes off of the situation and put them back on God, fiveamprayer.  See what God is doing, He has already made a way out for us!  We must trust the outcome, it is all apart of His perfect plan!  The Lord God, mighty in battle--is our strength!  God is!  Thank You for peaceful rest.  Get out of fear, fear brings torment.  The Holy Spirit is resting on us--that is why we have peace in every situation.  Truly cast your cares on Him.  He is our all in all.  The enemy knows that you have peace and will come to attack that today.  Hold on it!!  Don't let anything move you out of His perfect peace.  Guard your thoughts and cast down any vain imaginations that would attempt to exalt itself against the high knowledge of God.  He is our all in all!  Thank You Lord!!  Fiveaprayer, stay in this restful peace.  This sweet anointing, breaks yolks.  Be at peace, hallelujah!  Have a blessed day.  Visit us on facebook.  Take time to read these scriptures for yourself.  There is no peace, like the peace of God!  Fight to keep it--He is our all in all.

God Knows All Things.

Psalm 139:7-16; Job 24:23; Psalm 33:13-15; Proverbs 15:3; Jeremiah 16:17; Hebrews 4:13; Ephesians 1:11; Job 23:10; Psalms 103:14;1 Corinthians 10:13; Romans 8:28; Psalm 42:5,  23:4-5

We are walking in today: God Knows All Things.

Psalm 139:7-16  7) Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? 8) If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. 9) If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; 10) Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. 11) If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. 12) Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee. 13) For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. 14) I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. 15) My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16) Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.  One of us is in trouble, but God knows all things!  He sees and knows everything!  God is omnipotent.  God is honored when we set out mind on things above, seeking to worship and appreciate Him.  We are very, very, very limited in our knowledge and understanding of God.  Thank You God, for what You have revealed of Yourself to us--through the scriptures and nature.  Omnipresent is a word that means, knowing everything, present in all times and places.  Scripture declares, that God's eye runs every where.  Job 24:23 Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes are upon their ways.  Psalm 33:13-15 13) The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. 14) From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. 15) He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.  Proverbs 15:3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.  Jeremiah 16:17 For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes.  Hebrews 4:13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.  God's knowledge is linked to His sovereignty.  He knows each thing both in itself and in relation to all other things, because He created it, sustained it and makes it function--every moment according to His plan for it.  Ephesians 1:11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will.  God knows all things!  We don't have to worry or fret.  God knows which one of us is in trouble.  God will rescue you!  In your time of perplexity, He says in Job 23:10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.  It may be profoundly mysterious to me, quite incomprehensible to my friends, but He knows in times of weariness and weakness, believers assure themselves.  Psalms 103:14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.  He fills us with amazement.  How far exalted above the wisest man is the Lord!  None of us, knows what a day may bring forth.  But the future is open to His omnipresence grace.  The infinite knowledge of God, ought to fill us with His holy awe!  God knows all things!  Keep praying and seeking His face!  I'm talking about God, knows all things!  The place that you are in right now.  Every test, trial and tribulation, that you have gone through, been through, will see.  God knows all things in the name of Jesus!   But guess what?!  He will never put more on us than we can bear!     
I'm talking about, that same God that no matter what, makes a way out of no way for us!  That same God, even knowing all things you are going through, makes a way of escape for us!  He said He is the closest to the broken hearted.  He said that He came to heal the broken hearted and to set the captive free.  God knows all things!  All you have to do is hold on!!  Just hold on a little while longer, brother and sister!  He knows all things.  You are looking for a breakthrough.  Be still and know that He is God!  He is bringing you through to bring you out!  Keep your eyes on God, don't trust yourself or look anywhere else!!  Which way, what do I do?  Follow the word with your eyes on God!  He knows all things!  In your darkest hour, He will show up, He knows the plans that He has for you.  The number of hairs on your head, your trust in Him is not misplaced!!  We are to lean not to our own understanding.  Our God knows all things and He is working it out!!  The steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord!  Fiveamprayer, our response is, "nevertheless Thy will be done, Lord!"  When we look back and see what He has written in 1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.  God will not put more on us than we can bear, fiveamprayer!  Keep holding on and trusting Him, tell the devil--no weapon that is formed against us shall prosper!!  God knows the the plans that He has for us!  He knows all things!  As Psalms 139 shows us, if we make our bed in hell, lo He is there, or if our bed is in heaven or the deepest sea, He is still right there.  He'll never put more on us than we can bear!  Good God Almighty!  What an awesome God we serve!!  He told us in 2012 we will see, this is the year of power and authority.  He will not put more on us than we can bear!  We lift up fiveamprayer to You this morning--You are whispering in our ears, that You won't put more on us than we can bear.  That it is You, that makes a way of escape for us!  We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown.  We lift up Regina for the loss of her sister.  We know that absence from the body is present with the Lord.  Send the Comforter, Lord to her and her family at this time of bereavement.  We ask that You forgive us Lord, it is only You that can forgive us with no condemnation and cast our sins as far as the east is from the west.  Thank You God, for even healing us of the guilt of sin.  Fiveamprayer, He will never put more on us, than we can bear!  His grace is sufficient, keep walking in His word!  You are looking for a right now way out and He is here right now!!  For now and always!  He will show up, even down to the last second--late in the midnight hour.  When there is no where to turn, no where to go.  He will show up in the final hour, you will be able to bear it.  His grace is sufficient!  He is omnipresent, He knows!  Where can you go that God won't be able to see?!  So the questions is not if God can see you, but can you see God?!  What are you looking at or paying attention to?  He has not moved, but it is us that has moved our eyes to look else where.  Look back to the Lord, the Creator, the Lover of our Souls, Abba, Adonai Jehovah!  It is God that is our way out of no way!!  He will show up with His grace, mercy and favor.  It will be no more than we can bear.  The devil knows how much we can bear and is trying to get us to speak death, doubt, fear, he is trying to disguise your season!!  This is the year of power and authority, our God knows all things and is revealing things to us every day!!  God knew that we would be in this position--trust Him no matter what it looks like.  No matter what the outcome, God wins!  He knows the plans that He has for us.  God is teaching us something.  Wait on Him--obedience is better than sacrifice!  Let he who has ears, hear what the Lord is saying.  God told you to move and you are still waiting.  Or God told you to wait and you went on any way, being disobedient in either case not listening to God.  We can not get upset and blame God!!  Praise Him anyhow!!  He is a keeper and in spite of it all He blesses us!!  God is in control!!  He has been a doctor in the sickroom and a lawyer in the courtroom, in spite of ourselves!  Move out of the way, let God have His way!  He will fix it and work it out!!  Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.  Why are you worried, fiveamprayer?!  Psalm 42:5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.  Let's look at this in the amplified as well--Why are you cast down, O my inner self? And why should you moan over me and be disquieted within me? Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall yet praise Him, my Help and my God.  Hope expectantly for Him, sounds like we are to look to the Lord, that our hope is to be placed in Him alone.  Are you praising Him?  He is your help!!  Thank You Lord!!  God did not give us the spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, love, sound mind!  Read it for yourself in Psalms.  You think that He doesn't know?!  God knows just how much you can bear!  God knows, cast you care on Him, for He cares for us!  You will be able to bear it, His grace is sufficient.  God came on yesterday to tell us that one of us is in trouble.  God knows all things, He can fix your marriage, your finances, heal you, comfort you in bereavement.  His word is sent out and will not come back void.  He hastens to perform His word.  One of us is in trouble and God knows it!  Trust Him to fix it. Trust ME, you have been seeking ME first and all of MY righteousness, all these things shall be given unto you!  He is showing up with miracles.  He will never put more on us than, we can bear! 

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:  God knows!!  He is omnipotent and all knowing!  He knows how much we can bear!

Welcome to the overflow...
When we think that we will crumble and break--He knows how much we can bear.  The enemy is trying to get you to speak against God's word.  He knows that life and death is in the power of our tongues.  If you are not sure you will speak life, be quiet.  Don't help the devil by speaking death.  That is why he is pressing you to speak before you think or when you are pressed, he wants you to just utter anything.  We know better, devil be gone we will not help you tear down our blessings anymore!!  We will speak what our Father speaks, or stay silent until the word on the inside is stirred up for us to speak out of our mouths!  When we are waiver in our faith, we must still speak life, don't speak that word that will topple you!!  We trust God and stand on His word.  He has done it before and will do it again!  He shows up in our personal storms saying peace be still.  He knows!  He is omnipresent.  He knows all things!  He is our way of escape, from temptation--it will not overtake us!  Give Him glory!  Praise His name!  To God be the glory for the things that He has done!!  The victory is ours, fiveamprayer!! The devil is still a liar!  He is being sent back to the pits of hell!  Our God will never put more on us than we can bear!  The enemy is a liar, we will not lose one thing--not our mind, spouses, or children, you are a liar, devil!  Psalm 23:4-5  4) Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.  5) Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.  Get you joy back!  The devil comes to steal, kill and destroy.  The enemy want you to throw a pity party and send out invitations to everyone you know.  We know that is not of God and that joy comes in the morning.  We must wake up and get up giving Him the praise!  Hallelujah!  He is so good!  He knows all things!!  Thank You for Your amazing grace!  He knows just how much we can bear!  Visit us on facebook.  Take some time out today to read the scriptures for yourself.  Tell yourself all day today, He knows how much we can bear.  Fiveamprayer, He knows!  Have a blessed day!
