You Have The Power – Now Take It Back

John 10:10

10The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.


I was listening to one of my favorite Gospel songs. "Faithful is Our God" The song says, “I’m reaching the harvest God promised me – Take back what the Devil stole from me and I rejoice today, for I can recover it all!” I love this song! I can listen to it all day everyday. It simply gets me ready for the spiritual warfare I face everyday.


It is saying that as true believers and followers of Christ; We have the power to take back what God has blessed us with and Satin has stolen. We have the power to take back what we have given to Satin. We have the power to take back what he has stolen from us! You can take back your life! We have power over sin and it does not have to consume us! It is time to take it back! We have control over our finances; it is time to take it back! We have control over our prayer lives; it is time to take it back! We have control over our repentance it is time to take it back! We have the power of Praise and worship, take it back! The Devil is a liar! Take it back!


Yes! Take back your life, your health, your marriage, your children, your prayer life… Take back whatever the devil has stolen from you and begin to reach the harvest God has promised you. But you will never fully realize what God has for you if you are not seeking it through the study and understanding of his word. In fact, I would contend that you are giving more to Satin than he is having to steal from us. It is like giving your life to the thief in the night, which we know is coming to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. Often times we give the thief the best of our time, talents, and treasures with no regards to what he is truly taking.


It is more difficult to take something back after you have willingly given it, but still! You have the power over sin and death through the one that has come that we might have life, and that we might have life more abundantly. Yes! Reach for the harvest God promised you – Take back what the Devil stole from you, Take back what you have given to him and through the power of the Holy Spirit rejoice today! Rejoice for we can recover it all more abundantly. Have a blessed week, In Jesus’ Name... Amen!

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY

Isaiah 46:3-4 Listen to me...you whom I have upheld since you were conceived, and have carried since your birth. Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you. I found this illustration for Father’s Day. It is the story of Derek Redmond, a star runner in the 1992 Olympics. Derek was competing for the medal in the 400 meter race. Less than half-way through, he ripped a hamstring muscle and fell to the ground in agony. While the rest of the runners moved past him, Derek managed to get to his feet and began struggling to move forward. Then something caught the attention of the television cameras. Jim, his father, ran past security and onto the race track. At first Derek shrugged him away, saying, "I'm going to finish the race." Jim said to his son, "We've started everything together. We'll finish this together." He put his arm around his son and held him as they crossed the finish line together. ...

RUNNING FOR JESUS THIS MORNING

Galatians 2:20 20I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Back in Africa, when the sun comes up all the animals are running! It does not matter whether you are the Mightiest of Lions or Weakest of Gazelles, when the sun comes up all the animals are running. For the mightiest of Lions understands that if he does not run faster than the weakest of Gazelles, he may starve and die today. The weakest of Gazelles understands that is he does not run faster that the mightiest of Lions, he will become the Lion’s meal and die today. You see my Brothers and Sisters, when the sun comes up in Africa ALL the animals are running the marathon of life! It is the same way for us as Christians. When the sun comes up we all better be running for Jesus! Doesn’t matter whether you are the Bishop, Pastor, Deacon or Member when the sun comes up this day we should be rejo...
