Right now and Right here

John 10:10 The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).
The KEY to having and enjoying life is to STOP focusing on the stealing, killing and destroying and to focus on the abundance, to the full and the overflow. In the beginning of this YEAR I have decided no more focusing on what I NEED because the LORD is my shepherd and I shall NOT want. From this day forward my faith talks like it is DONE because the truth is that it REALLY is. There will be NO more talk of hindrances, lack, weakness or failure. The bible tells us in 2 Corinthians 6:2 (NLT) For God says, "At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you." Indeed, the "right time" is now. Today is the day of salvation.
I am GOING to tell you I was wrong all last year in thinking I was waiting for manifestation of my prayers. The truth is the manifestation is HERE. It is as REAL now as it will ever before. The bible tells us in Hebrews 11:1 that Faith is a NOW substance. Right now YOU have everything you need from the LORD and don't allow your senses to STOP you from receiving that truth. God is REAL. Jesus is REAL. The Holy Spirit is REAL and we can't see them but we know they are more REAL in fact than anything we can see. All you asked for from the LORD is right here right now. Thank God that your money, your car, your house, the healing in your mind and body and the deliverance and salvation for your loved ones because it has all been done we thank God for it. Every second of every day thank HIM for what is done.
We are children of the KING and citizens of the KINGDOM and we operate on a totally different system than the world. New Age thinkers tell us that we can attract to ourselves what we want but the word of God says in 1 Corinthians 3:21 All things ARE yours. It doesn't say it can be or it might be BUT is says all things ARE yours. Are as is present tense. I want to encourage you to go forward in praise and thanksgiving because because TODAY is your day.

WORDS

Hebrews 11:3 (KJV) Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. It has been this year that I have learned how very important and VITAL my words are to the quality of my life. I am so thankful to GOD for the WORK that He has done in and through me. I thank Him and praise Him that THIS has been my year of absolute New Beginnings. I am new and so because of that my world has been made new and STILL I know the best is yet to come.
One of my key meditation scriptures has been Proverbs 18:21 (KJV) Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat of its fruit. I have discovered the freedom of knowing my life was miserable, defeating and depressing NOT because of what others said about me or my life but because I echo their opinions and spoke the same words.
I was the one that spoke out my feelings on being rejected, depressed and a failure. God gave no one else that power over my life BUT me. But to God be the glory that with same tongue that at time tore apart my life is NOW with the power of God building it back again. And this time I am building on a SURE foundation and that is with the truth according to the word of God. If you have gotten one thing from through these messages on my websites let it be this: Create the GOD kind of life you want with the GOD kind of words you speak. Be Blessed, Manie

Who is really running the show?

Romans 8:7 (NLT) For the sinful nature is always hostile to God. It never did obey God's law, and it never will. If you are like me then you have struggled with how to NOT do the wrong thing when you knew what is the right thing. This word today from the Lord is not necessarily about sin but more about the voice of influence. For a long time I wanted God to just make it possible for me not to sin and be disobedient to Him. I thought it was something wrong with me because there were times when I really fought to obey God. There was always that voice trying to urge me to do the very thing I didn't want to do. In studying today about the flesh I started to meditate on Galatians 5:16-17 So, I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won't be doing what your sinful nature craves. The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your good intentions. But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under the obligation to the law of Moses.
The truth as I know it today is that there are always two voices vying for our attention. It was news to me when I read in the word some time ago that I could say NO to my flesh because I was dead to sin and alive in Christ. For so long I was under sin's power and when I was born again no one bothered to tell me different. I only knew that I wasn't going to hell. So then my flesh (and yours) was ok with things staying status quo.
After salvation we never get it that the devil is defeated and his power and control has been overthrown. All the problems and situations before our trip down the altar are still there to meet us outside the door of the church. The enemy would have us to think we still need this and that in order to survive. We maintain our defeated posture to certain people and some problems ..Here you have the power I am under your control to do with me as you wish.
In my life personally I could attest to the fact that I have handed over complete power and control to certain things, habits and people. When I knew the truth and continued in the truth in order to be free believe it was no easy feat having to overthrow those dead things. Nothing and no one loves to be demoted. But the truth is that of greatest commandment is You must love the LORD you God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. We give power to the things we love. No one loves the devil so he hides behind the habits, the money, the man or woman.
Romans 8:9 (NLT) But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. (OR ANYONE ELSE'S FOR THAT MATTER) You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you. (And remember that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ living in them do not belong to him at all.)
Right now I am determined that no matter what happened to me I will only be yielded to the control of the Holy Ghost. I am not going to love people, things and habits more than I love God because when I do they start to become more powerful to me than HE is. I love Jesus Christ with my everything because He first loved and gave me HIS everything. You are not left up to you own devices and tactics. God is with you and most of all God is for you. Invite the Holy Ghost into your life and let him you have decided in your own free will to let HIM run the show of your life. In Jesus Name Be Blessed, Manie

Speak and Create

Lamentations 3:24 (CEV) Deep in my heart I say, The LORD is all I need; I can depend on him!" What are you saying to yourself about yourself. What kind of life are you creating for yourself by the thought you think and the words you speak. Your life is the sum total of the seeds you have planted from either the Word or the world. We know from Genesis 1 that God created the world by speaking it into existence.
You need to know though it was NOT just His speaking it that brought it forth but it was HIS belief that He could do everything He was saying. He knew that He had the power to do it.
We being made in the image and likeness of God create and speak in that same way.
Romans 10:10 For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved.
Jesus said we are too pray according to Matthew 6:10a (NLT) May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. His will is already done for us in heaven we need to create it by speaking it in faith and bring forth the manifestion here on earth.
I have heard it said that in heaven your voice is your address.
Speaking it alone doesn't make it happen it is speaking the promises that keeps us in a place of expectation. Speaking the promises keeps us faithful and focus on the faithfulness of God. Speaking God's promises creates the atmosphere for God to DO what only HE can do.
Speaking it causes us to see and know it on the INSIDE and then we see and know it then on the OUTSIDE.
John 3:34 (NLT) For he is sent by God. He speaks God's word, for God gives him the Spirit without limit.
Stop saying what the world is saying and start speaking what the word says.
The world may be saying recession yet speak it is written God has granted you abundant prosperity.
The world may be saying incurable disease but it is written And the Lord will protect you from sickness. Also it is written O Lord my God, I called to you for help and you healed me.
Maybe people and the world have said you are unlovable and rejected. The truth is it is written You are forgiving and good, O LORD, abounding in love to all who call to you.
There TONS more word seeds in the bible for you to begin to speak and plant in your heart. In Jesus Name Be Blessed, Manie
