What time is it? Well, when I looked at the clock this morning it said 3:00am. I lay there for 45 minutes and realized that perhaps God has something special for me this morning so I got up, showered, dressed, started the coffee and fixed my protein drink. I then poured the coffee and walked to my computer expecting something different, something awesome from the Lord. Let’s just say that I wasn’t disappointed, not in the least.
I heard the Lord say to go to Creflo Dollars website and watch a broadcast. I clicked on archives and went directly to an untitled message on April 9th at 7pm. As I listened, I opened another tab, logged into WordPress, opened another tab and brought up biblegateway and began to read while listening. I know, I was half listening. That is until the Lord said, “Pull the broadcast back up, this is what I want you to hear.”
His teaching was from Galatians 4:24-31 and because of time, I’ll start in verse 28-31; My brothers and sisters, you are children who were born because of God’s promise, just as Isaac was. But the other son of Abraham, who was born in the normal way, caused trouble for the one who was born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same today. But what do the Scriptures say? “Throw out the slave woman and her son! The son of the free woman will receive everything his father has, but the son of the slave woman will receive nothing.” So, my brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman. We are children of the free woman.” Look at the Amplified of verse 31: So, brethren, we [who are born again] are not children of a slave woman [the natural], but of the free [the supernatural].
Here’s what he said that caught my attention: “Ishmael was born of natural intercourse but to get Isaac, it was a supernatural process. You are children of the supernatural who will bypass the natural process to see the promise fulfilled in your life.” Then he spoke this prophetic word: “You’re about to see some supernatural interventions in bringing to pass the promises that you’re believing God for. I declare that you’re going to see some supernatural interventions where you’re going to bypass natural processes as you believe God to see the promises come to pass. I prophesy, supernatural intervention where you’re going to bypass natural processes as you begin to believe God for the promises to come to pass. So don’t sit back and think, ‘Well this has got to happen and that has got to happen and that’s got to happen. No no no no no! In the supernatural realm, you might skip 3 of them that’s got to happen and end up seeing it happen. But you’ve got to come to the place that you recognize, I can trust God for the supernatural intervention and bypass all of that natural.”
2 weeks ago, our pastor prophesied a very similar Word from the Lord. I believe that God is confirming to His people that THIS is His set time. Now don’t get all cynical on me! I don’t care what kind of process you’ve been through, I don’t care what the devil has whispered in your ear, I don’t care if all hell has come against you and you’re about to give up. I’m telling you to grab hold of your promise and hang on because what He has said will surely come to pass. Psalm 89:34, My covenant I will not break, nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
I stopped at the church to pray and as I entered I said to the Lord, “God, the devil erased my blog this morning and I know that was an on time word for your body this morning, so I ask that because of what he tried to do, you’ll give me even more revelation on that and speak loud and clear a special word for me.”
As I paced and prayed, I felt the power and presence of God come on me and this is what came out of my mouth; “I’ve already released it and it cannot be held back. It can’t be stopped, it’s already on it’s way. It cannot be stopped. I can’t take it back. Hang on! It’s here!” Mark 11:24, Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
Take THAT, devil. You are totally ridiculous if you think THAT is going to stop me! I’m not going to ever stop believing and confessing that Jesus is Lord. I will be relentless in my pursuit of God and His promises. You can’t stop the promises of God no more than you can stop an earthquake. Once it starts, it will finish. Hallelujah!
