Becoming an Overcomer
My People.. My people.. My people...
Lay aside every hindrance and push into Me. This is the season where you must press in, press through. I assure you that the enemy will do all he can to distract you in this season. He desires to distract you in your area of weakness. If you are prone to physical sickness, he will attack you in that area. If you are prone towards frustration, you will see more things come at you than ever before. If you are prone towards failures in relationships, you will have more difficulties in relationships than usual. If you struggle in the area of finances, you will see more unexpected expenses than usual. If you struggle with temptation, more temptations are going to come your way. For I have granted the enemy of your souls a season to test you.. to push you and to work against you.
But know this, I desire to make you more than conquerors in these areas. I desire to transform your weakness into an area of great strength.. to make you more than conquerors through Christ.
This is the seasons to press in.. to press through the hindrances. This is the season to take your focus off of the circumstances and to place your focus on Me, on My word and on My promises. For I say unto you.. My promises are TRUE. They are Yes and Amen.. and I am giving the victory to any of My people who will accept it from My hand. Understand that there is a cost associated with this victory.. for to win the battle, you must first fight the battle.. and the battle may appear fierce. PRESS IN . Persevere. Do not give up.. for I shall give the victory into your hands. Look to Me.. keep your eyes fixed on Me, keep your thoughts focused on Me.. and you shall see Me work My victory in your situation.. and you shall see Me transform you into an overcomer.
Do not be overcome by the circumstances.. turn to Me.. and in My power and in My strength you shall become an overcoming one.
Press in, My people, and walk in My victory!
