Resisting Temptations
Keep moving forward, My precious one. Don\’t stop and allow the enemy to remove your lamp of Love. Don\’t hesitate long enough for your thoughts to wander into enemy territory. Keep moving forward on the narrow path. Don\’t swerve and fall into the ditch of temptation. When you move forward with Me, you leave spiritual dangers behind. Walk with Me. We won\’t stop. Let\’s go. Micah 6:8…walk humbly with your God James 4:7-8 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you John 14:31 …but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.

Take every thought captive
There is no Truth to be found in your thoughts that are wandering around minding everyone else\’s business except your own. Lasso those thoughts that are full of pride. Cast them aside where they will do no harm. Repent and return to Me. I Am the God of humility. Mercy is My name. Truth is found where Love abounds. Not in the wandering of your imagination. I Am here. Listen to Me. 2 Corinthians 10:5 And we pull down reasonings and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and we take all minds prisoner to the obedience of The Messiah. 2 Thessalonians 3:5-13 May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teaching you received from us. For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example.

Take up your cross
There is no such thing as salvation, deliverance and new Life for others without suffering the pain of absorbing their sin. Do not run from the pain inflicted upon you. Stand and absorb. Your pain and labor will not be in vain. Your cross leads to their resurrection. Take up your cross and follow Me. 2 Timothy 1:8-9 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord or of me His prisoner, but join with me in suffering for the gospel according to the power of God, Who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was granted us in Christ Jesus from all eternity . . . Matthew 16 24 Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. 25 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.…

Guard your soul
Bind and cast out your negative thoughts. They are not harmless. They are to be dominated by your will for Me and My Love. No one is to have access to your heart except Me, and that includes your own thoughts. When you allow yourself to think darkly, the thoughts themselves open the door for demons to gain access to your heart. When you allow thoughts which are selfish, judging, fault finding, complaining, remembering the negative past, comparing, daydreaming, lustful, prideful or fearful then you are opening the door of your heart for demons to come in and take control. No one, human or spirit, is to be in control of your heart but Me alone. I Am the Lord your God and I have spoken. You shall have no other gods before Me. Therefore you must bind and cast out every thought that does not come from My Love. Cast out many thoughts all day, every day. Replace them with listening to My Voice within your heart. Set your mind on what is good and lovely and worth being thankful for. Your mind needs a road to travel on. This is the path you are to direct it to. Never let your mind to be redirected to dark paths. Cast out those redirecting thoughts and replace them with My pathway of thoughts. My path is bordered by safety fences made of Love. Stay within thoughts of Love. I Love you and I will teach you the right path. 2 Corinthians 10:5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, Genesis 8:21b . . . although the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; Proverbs 3:6-7 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. 7 Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. 1John 4:20-21 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. 21 And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother. Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think on these things. 9 Whatever you have learned and received and heard from me, and seen in me, put these things into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.… Proverbs 4:23 Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life
Resist the darkness
Do not be discouraged. It is not possible for evil to overcome My Goodness and Love. Neither is it possible for a lighted candle to be overcome by the darkness around it. I created this picture of Truth for you to keep before you. Light resists and pushes back the dark. Hold on to the Light within your spirit. I put it there Myself. It is My Spirit. I will not let it be extinguished. Each time you turn your heart to Me, I blow more Life-Light into you. Around the world, My Light is overcoming the darkness. This is the Truth. It is good news. So do not be discouraged. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.There came a man who was sent from God. His name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe. 8 He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.9 The true Light who gives light to every man was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him. 11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. 12 But to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but born of God. Matthew 5:…14 You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a lampstand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.…

Spiritual tug-of-war
Your spirit feels like it is the rope that is being pulled in tug-of-war. It is. Remember that I always win. So lean into Me. Use your will and desire Me. Say with your heart and mouth, \”I choose You, Jesus and My Father and Holy Spirit. I choose You, My real Family. I choose You. No matter what happens, I won\’t stop. \” You will begin to feel the rope of your spirit in tug-of-war being pulled out of the pressure of evil and into My Love. Then you will have the freedom to breathe and feel My Presence. Always choose Me. I chose you long ago. 1 Corinthians 10:38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Galatians 5:13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. Ephesians 6:13 Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.

I Will never leave you
When the smoke from the battle clears, and you regain sight, you will see Me, and you will know that I was here with you all along. So move forward and do not be afraid. I could never leave you under any circumstances. I Am here. Joel 3:16 The LORD roars from Zion And utters His voice from Jerusalem, And the heavens and the earth tremble But the LORD is a refuge for His people And a stronghold to the sons of Israel. 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it. Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? 33 Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Today is a new day
Purposefully forget each yesterday. Today is not yesterday. Today is a brand new day. Today is a good day. I Am here. Demons of discouragement join themselves to your thoughts when you dwell on the yesterdays. I Am here, in the present, with you. Remain here, in the present, with Me. Fight discouragement with the Truth. Today is not yesterday. Today is a new day and I Am here. Keep moving forward with Me. I Am faithful and good. I Love you. Philippians 3: 13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 6: 12For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 2 Corinthians 10:2 For although we are walking in the flesh, we do not wage war in a fleshly way, 4 since the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but are powerful through God for the demolition of strongholds. We demolish arguments 5 and every high-minded thing that is raised up against the knowledge of God, taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.

Doubting God = He doesn\’t have enough love or enough power
My power is hid in My love for you, because unless you know how much I love you, which is more than you can imagine, you cannot be assured of My power. Matthew 6:25 Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns — and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his lifespan?… Romans 8: 28 And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. Zephaniah 3:17 The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.
