2 Corinthians 10:4-5 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.
We probably all have some strongholds in our lives that need to be pulled down and the good news is God has told us we can do just that, but only by using His weaponry.
Mind over matter wont do it, pleading with God to remove something from our lives is not the answer. God has already done everything for us through Jesus death and resurrection and what He requires of us now is to walk in the victory that Jesus has already won for us.
There's something in all of us that just wants God to do it all for us, we don't want the responsibility but the fact is God has not only given us the responsibility but also the ability to do it and do it in His strength not ours.
Over the next few days I hope to look into some of the weaponry God has given us because we are not helpless or hopeless. He wants us to learn to use them because His Word says we are more than Conquerors through Christ, He always leads us in victory through Christ, He has made us Overcomers and no weapon formed against us shall prosper. He says we are Victors, not victims.
Even if we don't feel like conquerors, when we constantly declare those truths over our lives we'll start to believe it in our hearts and we'll begin to see strongholds lose their hold. God has given us the victory already and we can learn to rise up and walk in it.
So hold your head up high as you go into the new week knowing God is for you, He loves you, equipped you and anointed you to be all that He wants you to be. Amen.
