20 Days of Good News and Encouragement

 What is the good news today?

The Spirit of the Lord has been speaking to this servant first thing O'dark hundred in the morning every day.  One word is impressed over and over again the moment this nobody rolls out of bed, that word is:  relentless.  Be relentless in prayer, relentless in fasting, relentless in taking the fight to the enemy through intercession, binding, loosing, standing in agreement.  Be relentless, be consistent, then stand.

Eph 6

10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 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.

13Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm14Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, 19and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.

The Lord our God is leading this fight, but He is asking us to do it standing alongside Him.  We are to stand hand in hand with Him and with each other.  This one is going to be a family victory.  The believing, faith filled, Spirit filled family is doing this together as one.

Gal 6:9

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

We need all hands on deck for this one.  Every believer needs to stand against the wicked one and his army on earth.  We stand united against "them."  We cannot grow weary, we cannot give up, we must not give up until the battle is won.  Renew your strength in the Lord and engage.  In 20 days or so, we are just getting started so we need to dig in and settle into our battle rhythm.  There is a reason the Lord God has called on us to rise up into the best version of ourselves.  There is alot of work to do...The Lord God has impressed upon this servant that He is not interested in just a setback for the enemy.  Not this time.  This one is to be a rout and a plundering.  Then we take back the school boards, the city councils, the judges across the land, the city, county and state governments and the deep state gets yanked out by the roots.  That's the Lord God's plan.

So you see, its not us who should be afraid of what "they" are planning.  What everyone should be wondering is what is the Lord Almighty planning.  Yep, "they" should be very worried about that.

Phil 4:6

do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

ISA 14:27

For the LORD Almighty has purposed, and who can thwart him? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?

The orange man is out front right now because the Lord God put him there.  The orange man only stands out front by the grace of the Lord our God.  What we need to understand is the Church is behind the orange man and the Lord God is in and before and behind the Church.  "They" are going to learn a lesson (again) from the past and it is this:

1 Sam 14:47

And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands.

and

Zech 4:6

So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty.

So the message of good news and encouragement today is if you stand (and you will) in your faith, united with the Lord God in agreement and with the united Body of believers across the world, soon its going to be a very, very bad day for the enemy.

Be relentless.  Be consistent, and stand.  As we do this, we will begin the see the dominoes starting to fall and we will glorify the Lord for it.  Glory to God!
