JOY

“JOY is experienced in Heaven CONTINUALLY because in My presence is FULLNESS OF JOY. (PSALM 16:11) JOY is a part of who IAM. It is that feeling deep in your soul of PROMISES FULFILLED, DESIRES MET, and KNOWING that you are LOVED and FAVORED. JOY RENEWS your PHYSICAL BODY, it RESTORES your SOUL, and it ALIGNS your SPIRIT with My Spirit. Because JOY is so important to the WELL BEING of your life, I want you to experience it EVERY DAY. You may ask, ‘How can I have joy when so much is wrong in the world and in my family?’ Good question! Let Me REMIND you of My Son’s example. ‘His example is this: because His heart was focused on the joy of knowing you would be His, He endured the agony of the cross and conquered its humiliation, and now sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God.’ (HEBREWS 12:2b TPT) Eyes of FAITH can look BEYOND the present circumstances and see the FULFILLMENT of My PROMISES. See your Nation RESTORED, see your loved ones SAVED, HEALED, and DELIVERED. See the BOUNTY, GOODNESS, and FREEDOM I have promised come to pass, and My JOY will fill your heart. Your JOY actually DRAWS the future promises into a PRESENT REALITY. WORRY, ANXIETY, UNBELIEF are BLOCKERS to the FULFILLMENT of what I have promised, and they STEAL your JOY. JOY is what tells your soul that IT IS WELL and that I AM a GOOD, GOOD FATHER who DELIGHTS in fulfilling your DESIRES and all of My PROMISES to you. Yes, this is a season of INTENSE WARFARE, but it must be BALANCED by the JOY set before you. I will give you opportunities every day to experience JOY. Receive My JOY and let it do its GOOD WORK in you.” 

1 CHRONICLES 16:27 “Splendor and majesty are before Him, strength and joy are in His place.” (NASB)

Powerful Peace

Lord, I thank You for placing Your wonderful, powerful, protective peace in my life. I am grateful that You have positioned it to stand at the entrance of my heart and mind and that it dominates my mind and controls my life. Because what is inside me is what rules me, I choose to let this peace rise up and conquer me. With this peace standing at the gate of my heart and mind, I know it will disable the devil's ability to attack my emotions and will not permit his lies and accusations to slip into my mind! Thank You for loving me enough to put this powerful peace in my life! I pray this in Jesus' name!

I confess that I am guarded and protected by the powerful peace of God that works in my life. It rises up to dominate my mind; it controls my thinking, and it determines the condition of my life and the environment where I live and work. I am unaffected by the circumstances surrounding me, for this supernatural peace stands at the gate of my mind and emotions to monitor everything that tries to access me. Because no fretting, anxiety, panic, or worry is allowed to enter me, I remain free, calm, and peaceful - even in difficult situations that in the past would have upset me! I declare this by faith in Jesus' name! - Rick Renner  (Christianity.com  November 27, 2023)

A Prayer for God's Presence 

Father, Sometimes I feel afraid in the tough trials of life. Sometimes the darkness overwhelms me, and I grow discouraged as I face the uncertainties of life, wearying temptations, or scary attacks from the enemy. But this is not what you have for me, and my victory comes from you.

Satan wants me to believe I fight my spiritual battles by myself. Help me remember I am not alone in my battles. Your Word is clear. You have commanded me to be strong and take courage in you, and that is my desire. I can count on your presence wherever I go, and rely on the power and provision of your presence in my times of deepest need. Thank you for being near, for walking with me every day. ~ Dawn Wilson ( 35 Prayers for Peace of Mind and Soul Compiled & Edited by Crosswalk Editorial Staff Crosswalk.com)

A GREAT SHAKING AMONG THE NATIONS        JULIE GREEN

Date Word Received: November 15, 2023

Watch video - published November 15, 2023

“I, the Lord, this day am telling My children to stand at attention, stand guard, and watch over your words. Watch over your mind and what you are thinking. My children, I tell you to fight the good fight of faith. I have spoken this in My Word. It is not a fight to bring you discouragement. It is not a fight to bring you overwhelming circumstances and despair. 

No, this fight is a fight to win. It is a fight to regain and take back everything the enemies have been trying to steal from you. I have prepared your hearts. I have prepared you for this time. I have talked to you about a great awakening and that during the time of this great awakening, there will be great shaking. There is great shaking going on- great shaking amongst the nations, great shaking amongst governments, great shaking in three-letter agencies, great shaking in judicial systems, and yes, even great shaking in My church. 

(There will be) great shakings, mighty shakings, to shake you loose from the power of the enemy, to shake you free from their captivity, their mindset, and their train of thought- how they have been training and persuading you into thinking things are real and true. Great lies and deception. Yes, great lies and deception that have cheated you out of so many things that My Son already paid the price for. Don’t walk away. Don’t walk away, I say. Don’t walk away this day because great is your reward. 

My children, I have heard the cries of My people all over this world. You’ve cried in torment. You’ve cried in despair. You’ve cried because of oppression. You’ve cried because of pain. You’ve cried because of infirmity and pestilence. You’ve cried because of injustice. You’ve cried for truth. I have heard these cries. I have seen what the enemy has done. Yes, I have, and I see what the enemies are planning to do, but it won’t go through. No, it won’t go through because it can’t get through Me. 

I have heard your prayers. I have seen your consistency, how you are pressing in, that you won’t give up, and that you won’t quit. Great is your reward. I will not fail. I am the Deliverer.”

I WILL REVAMP     Marcella Ward

“I will revamp.  I will revamp in a snap!  In the twinkling of an eye says I the Lord your God, Almighty, Father on high.  The devil has thought he has won but the Father says, he is done! 

I am cleaning My house.  I am the bridegroom and the Church, the Bride of Christ is my spouse.  So be elated, be excited for soon all will be united.  The Savior of the world has made it clear.  Salvation for the ages is near.  ALLELUIA sing and shout and don’t hold back but let it out!”

2024–THE YEAR OF THE DOOR, THE MORE, AND THE POUR  Diana Larkin

 

“2024 will be marked by SHAKINGS for the WICKED and AWAKENINGS for the SLEEPING. But for My REMNANT, it will be the year of the DOOR, the MORE, and the POUR. DOORS of OPPORTUNITY and ADVANCEMENT will OPEN WIDE for you. MORE will BLESS your life: MORE PROVISION, MORE FINANCES, MORE RESTORATION of what has been lost. It will also be the year of the POUR. My Spirit will POUR forth like never before in history. You will see SPIRITUAL GIFTS POURED OUT, ACCURATE and POWERFUL PROPHECY will POUR forth, CONVICTION of SIN, LIFELESS RELIGION, and LAWLESSNESS will POUR OUT on people in their homes, their churches, in the marketplace, and in gatherings. The darkness thinks that 2024 will be the year they CLOSE the DOOR on your FREEDOM and on many LIVES. In 2024 they plan to STEAL MORE of your finances and your food. Their plan is to POUR OUT MORE CHAOS, DESTRUCTION, and DISEASE. I LAUGH AT THEIR PLANS FOR 2024 because MY PLANS ARE ALREADY IN MOTION—AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE—AND I WILL TRUMP ALL THEIR EVIL PLANS WITH MY PROMISES OF THE OPEN DOOR, THE RELEASE OF THE MORE, AND THE OVERWHELMING POUR OF MY SPIRIT. There are GOOD THINGS in STORE for 2024 for those POSITIONED with Me to RECEIVE the DOOR, the MORE, and the POUR.” (www.dianalarkin.blogspot.com )Diana Larkin  A Watchman’s Journal
