I Have Raised You From Among The Dead While You Are Yet Living

Word of the Day
Beloved, do not fret or entertain dismay in anything I have called you to do, for I Jesus, the Breaker, have already prepared your way (Micah 2:13). All you must do is follow in the footsteps of My dreaming heart for your life. All you must do is dare to believe and you shall see the glory of the Lord.

All the pain and rejection of this life…all you have suffered and endured will be worth it all. For the nails driven deep into My flesh prepared the way for your salvation and for your call. Who you are and the dreams of your heart are non-negotiable as far as I am concerned. They are written on the walls of destiny with My blood.

The enemy has been after what is within you. Why? He still longs to bring defeat to Me and counts it a joy to use you in the process. This is nothing new. One thing He seems to forget. I have already won and so have you. Cling to Me…hide in Me and be resurrected from the dead while you are yet living. I am here to make it so.

The devil…the father of all lies had already lost for I, Jesus, dwell in you and I am breaking through. And like Me you shall display My Kingdom and My Glory on the earth. But first, you have to endure till the end and overcome in the darkness and depths of the earth…overcome in the midst of your situations and circumstances.

You shall walk in a continual birthing and the treasure you are shall be unearthed moment by moment. The greatest of signs and wonders shall appear announcing to all with a loud voice of victory that My Kingdom has come and My Kingdom is ever near. Yes, I raise you out from among the dead things of this life while you are yet living. Cling to Me…let your life be found in Me and Me alone…in doing this all things shall be added unto you. Never put the cart before the horse or think your works can make way for you. I am the Waymaker and the imparter of dreams, visions and calling. I have called you and I call you, My Beloved Dreamer who holds the thoughts, intents and dreams of My heart. Therefore, be of good cheer for I have indeed overcome for you, in you and will do so through you. Come.

And that I may [actually] be found and known as in Him, not having any [self-achieved] righteousness that can be called my own, based on my obedience to the Law’s demands (ritualistic uprightness and supposed right standing with God thus acquired), but possessing that [genuine righteousness] which comes through faith in Christ (the Anointed One), the [truly] right standing with God, which comes from God by [saving] faith.

[For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope]

That if possible I may attain to the [spiritual and moral] resurrection [that lifts me] out from among the dead [even while in the body](Philippians 3:9-11 Amplified)

Prayer
Father…Papa…Daddy… My heart cries with wonder and amazement…it cries out sighs of love and joy, as I humble myself before You and Your mighty love. You are so wonderful to have invited me to come and be with You for eternity through the sacrifice of one You love so much. You are indeed my Gift-giver…my Beautiful One full of mercy and grace. How I love You with a heart of exalted adoration.

Please forgive me for all the times I have been negligent in reciprocating love…for all the times I have found other things more worthy of my time than You. I call You my Treasure…my Pearl of Great Price and I will cling to You and You alone. I embrace the thoughts and intents of Your heart and I am changed.

Thank you for sharing Your heart, Your dreams, and Your plans. There are not words powerful enough to give the honor due Your name. I can never praise You enough as I thank you for revealing to me Your purpose in my life. I desire with all that is within me to birth all You desire to birth through me. Therefore, I praise You for the resurrection power now being manifested in my life. Surely You have called me out from all that is dead while I am yet living. You are the Waymaker…You are my Waymaker and I follow after You now and all of eternity. Amen

Reflect and Journal
1. Spend time just praising God for all that He is doing in your life right now and if you can’t seem to find anything start by praising Him for who He is and your eyes will be opened to gratefulness. You do have salvation to be thankful for.

2. Recognize the tests, trials and temptations you are facing are attempts to get you to give up your dreams from the Lord. It is not what you do but what you do it in the midst of. Don’t believe the lie of the enemy…for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of the Lord. If not so, we would not need Jesus. Receive forgiveness and stand in the power of His might to do according to all He has called you to do. Don’t take steps backward…go forward.

3. Make a determination to endure to the end and overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony.

4. Take time to write down what your testimony is giving thanks for all that God has done for you and is doing for you now.
