Lately I've been going through some situations that look hopeless and I've spent day after day praying, I even fasted. I decreed and declared, knowing that I know these requests line up with God's will, which is the Word of God. I was delivered from demonic strongholds which held me captive because of willful sin in my life.Still, I felt like nothing was changing. I was crying out to God, "what am I missing?" Finally I got my answer, I was snared by the words of my mouth. I was confessing defeat, instead of giving praise for the breakthrough and blessings He wants to give me. I wasn't waiting for Him, He was waiting for me. A perfect example is in 2 Chronicles 20, The Lord told His people this battle is not yours, it is the Lord's, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord with you . All of Judah began to praise and worship God, when they did this, it released God's presence and power. God is so infinitely wise while Judah trusted and praised He sent confusion and fear among their enemies, until they utterly and completely destroyed each other, not one was left standing. In order for Him to fight our battles we have to get out of our own way and trust and obey, even when our natural mind can't conveive how things could possibly change. Limiting beliefs of what He can or will do, how it'll be done, and in what timeframe we prefer will keep us from living the victorious life He wants to give us. If we get off the throne and let him be Lord in our life He'll do it such a way that the enemies we see today, we will never see again!!!
