CHILDREN'S BREAD

But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

Mark 7:27-28

Do Not Be Bewildered by the Strategies of Men, for They Shall Be Bruised by the Pressure of Divine Wisdom (Part 2)

By Moses Hightower

 

I have given you many precious promises. Did you ask for these promises?

Do not concern yourself with whether people believe you or not. The unbelief of man does not make the faith of God of no effect.  I am true and every man is a liar.  I have given you grace that you might be justified in your sayings and that you might overcome when you are judged. Do not worry and do not avenge yourself. Give place to unfairness, injustice, and wrath, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay.”

Go and spread the tablecloth of love, and I will place fresh living bread on the table before you. The bread of life will feed your adversary and heap coals of fire on his head.  Do not be overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.  I have already planned and made provision for this thing that is forged against you.  I will press and bruise it and force it out of its planned shape.  I will bruise it by the pressure of divine wisdom. Your opponents mean it for bad, but I mean it for good. I shall crush these things as grapes are crushed. The juice of my goodness shall be poured into your cup. Do not despise the pressure of my wisdom, neither the violence imagined because of the hurt.  Be assured that all things are working together for good. You are given grace to love me.  I have called you according to my purpose, not the purpose of man. You are being oppressed.  He who oppresses you, oppresses me, for I have sent you.  Now behold the power of God working on your behalf.  I shall overwhelm these things and subdue them under your feet.  I have already conquered them beyond all of their resistance. Be confident, for I have crushed your enemies and your foes. You know me, the one that is from the beginning. You have overcome the wicked one.  I speak to you as one who knows the Father. The word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked one. Be assured of total victory. The things against you have collided with me. They are bruised, broken, and ground into small particles. Behold the wind of grace. It comes and shall blow these things away.  Rejoice.  I have fought for you.

 

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?

Amos 3: 7 - 8

 

 

SCRIPTURAL VERIFICATION

The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

(Romans 10:8-10)

Words of Light upon the Face of Bewilderment, Fear, Injustice, Lack of Confidence, Opposition, Unfairness, and Wrath (Part 2)

By Milton Rodriguez

 

The Lord has given me many precious promises. I did not ask for these promises. By grace, I will not concern myself with whether people believe me or not. The unbelief of man does not make the faith of God of no effect.  The Lord is true, and every man is a liar.  He has given me grace that I might be justified in my sayings and that I might overcome when I am judged. I will not worry, and I will not avenge myself, but I will give place to unfairness, injustice, and wrath, for the Lord has shown me in his word that, vengeance is his and he will repay.

I will go and spread the tablecloth of love and he will place fresh living bread on the table before me. The bread of life will feed my adversary and heap coals of fire on his head.  I will not be overcome of evil, but I overcome evil with good.  He has already planned and made provision for this thing that is forged against me.  God will press and bruise it and force it out of its planned shape.  He will bruise it by the pressure of divine wisdom. My opponents mean it for bad, but God means it for good. He shall crush these things as grapes are crushed. The juice of his goodness shall be poured into my cup. I do not despise the pressure of his wisdom, neither the violence imagined because of the hurt.  I am assured that all things are working together for good. I am given grace to love God.  He called me according to his purpose, not the purpose of man. I am being oppressed.  He who oppresses me, oppresses him, for he sent me.  Now I behold the power of God working on my behalf.  He shall overwhelm these things and subdue them under my feet.  He already conquered them beyond all of their resistance. I am confident, for he has crushed my enemies and my foes. I know God, the one that is from the beginning. I have overcome the wicked one.  He speaks to me as one who knows the Father. The word of God abides in me, and I have overcome the wicked one. I am assured of total victory. The things against me have collided with God. They are bruised, broken, and ground into small particles. I behold the wind of grace. It comes and shall blow these things away.  I rejoice, for the Lord has fought for me.

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

Hebrews 10:22 - 23

 

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Ephesians 2:8-9
