Something that I have
discovered in life is that doubt and fear are often our biggest enemies and
sabotage to fulfilling God’s purpose.
I am reminded of the
account of the prophet Elijah who obeyed God’s word and repaired His altar on
Mt Carmel. God moved so powerfully and
the fire of the Lord came down and consumed the burnt sacrifice, the wood, the
stones, the dust and licked up all the water in the trench! When the people saw this, they fell on their
faces crying out that the Lord is God. On that mountain that day, the people had such
a MASSIVE REVELATION of who God was and were so empowered by HIM and what took
place that they immediately annihilated all of the 450 false prophets of Baal.
(1 Kings 18:20 – 40)
This story of Elijah’s
victory on Mt Carmel depicts the victories God gives us in our lives. Many times God will bring us to a place where
we truly ENCOUNTER HIM and the veil is taken off our eyes to see Him for who He
really is – a Father of love, our refuge, our strength, our salvation and our
Deliverer. We begin to see His immense, unconditional love for us, and His plan
and purpose for our existence here on earth.
At this REVELATION of Him, we are empowered to supernaturally kill off all
the “false prophets” and their numerous LIES in our lives – like the lies about
our self worth, the lies about not being loved, the lies about our identity, the
lies about other people, the lies that our sins are too evil to ever be forgiven!
When God gives you the
victory, don’t do what Elijah did and run and hide in fear from Jezebel (the
enemy) after the victory on Mt Carmel that day.
Don’t doubt God and
His power that gave you the victory and delivered you from the “false prophets”
in your life. Don’t doubt His victory in your life! Don’t fear when the familiar voices of the false prophets
begin to echo in your ears again. Don’t go back to dig up the dead
false prophets! Don’t go back to their domain! HAVE FAITH IN GOD and the victory He has
given you! BELIEVE in His awesome power
that has set you free! DON’T LOOK
BACK!! Don’t allow doubt and fear rob
you of your future and God’s purpose for you.
SUPER-GLUE YOUR EYES on Jesus by meditating on His Word and rehearsing
the TRUTH of his Word over and over and over and over again in your heart, mind
and actions! You will deal blow after
blow to the enemies of doubt and fear in your life by training yourself in the
truth of God’s Word, submitting and obeying to His truth. By doing these things you will kill off the lies of the “false prophets”!
Let truth and faith be your
new companions as you fulfill God’s purpose.
