VICTORY BY THE SPIRIT WITHIN

04/17/2023

"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world" (1 John 4:4).

There is an unfair advantage that you have, and it is that you are part of the only species of being inhabited by God. This means that you have inside information about everything and anything. You have answers to every question that may ever be posed in this world and in the world to come. "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you" (John 16:13-15).

But then, there are daunting circumstances that may try to frighten you into worry or depression. 2 Timothy 1:7 says, "God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." The Holy Spirit in you is a Spirit of love, power, and an innovative mind. What you have got to do is stir up the ministry of the Holy Ghost from within you for an answer. 

Now how do you do this? You do it by speaking in tongues until words begin to float up to your mind from your spirit. 1 Corinthians 14:2 says, "...he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit, he speaks mysteries." If you can engage the Spirit within for long enough, the answers you require will become available, irrespective of the situation. 

It doesn't matter if the doctor has pronounced a death sentence or the bank has announced a foreclosure. What matters is 2 Corinthians 1:9 RSV which says, "Yea, we ourselves have had the answer of death within ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead." If we have the answer of death in ourselves, then what other question can this world pose that we do not have the ability to answer?

Brother and sisters, the answer is inside. Stop looking for it outside. It is time to dive within and pull it out. Speak in other tongues. 

God bless you!

Faith Filled Confession

No situation or circumstance can defy me successfully because all the answers I require reside inside my being. I am alive to the God within, and He is alive in me. Therefore, I reign as a king over all issues of this life, and I always win because Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. Hallelujah!
