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
Give
us this day OUR DAILY BREAD.

Faith Can Afford Anything That You Will Praise God For
By
Moses Hightower
I have not forgotten my promises unto you. I am God, and I cannot lie. It is impossible for me to lie. I have not held back my promises, but a spirit has influenced you to doubt. Refuse the inspiration of doubt and allow the faith that I have given you to express itself. Faith is willing to express its ability and confidence. Faith is speaking, but you will not allow it to speak continually. You have expressed a double-mind's view of things and have not received that which you could have. Today is the day of victory. Now go and express the faith of Christ and not the doubts of your mind. All things are possible if you believe.
Lift up your voice in the sanctuary and declare the hope of the cross. I have made a bridge and placed it under your feet. The cross is a bridge across all troubled waters and through every scorching fire. It is time for "hard-headed" faith and not the time for doubt and unbelief. The enemy has counted on your double-mindedness, but I know that you will abound with thanksgiving because of faith. Go and proclaim the victory that is already won by the cross. Go and proclaim my faithfulness to Israel and the faithfulness to you and the church. I cannot fail. There is no failure in me. There is no darkness in me, neither is there a shadow of turning in me. In me, there is liberty and power. You are not bound. You are free. Now rise up and proclaim what you know by the Living Word that is in you. I am Jesus, the Lord of lords and the King of kings. Believe on me as the scriptures have declared of me, and the rivers within you shall flow against the fires of discouragement and defeat.
I have sent forth mighty rivers against the banks of the enemy. These rivers will wash spirits from your presence. Lift up your voices in praise and cause the rivers within you to flood the palaces of the devil. The enemy has set up bunkers in your lives and called them palaces of victory, but I have sent forth the flood from my rivers of living water to wash away his sand castles of lies. I am the Lord, your God, the father of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The night shall not come before I confirm my promises to my church, which is called by my name. I am moving through your midst now to show forth the strength of the resurrection. I am raising you up in spite of the pull of evil's gravity. There is no power in Satan's kingdom that can withstand the lifting of the resurrection. I have sent you forth out of the hand of defeat and secured your promises in a heavenly place. Cease living the lives of paupers and beggars and begin a new life of wealthy, redeemed saints. I have summoned the white horse of freedom for your journey and caused your enemies to lead you through the places that were once places of shame and regret. Only believe, and you shall see the glory of God.
My truth has marched through your mind. The liberty of this truth has made you free and compelled you to believe the faith of Jesus. Now accept your miracles on the platter of your praises and eat of the returns from the hand of my faithfulness. I have placed my promises in the midst of your praises. While you praise, taste and see how good my provision is. For some of you, I have placed healing in the midst of your platter of praise. For some of you, I have placed prosperity in the midst of your platter. For some of you, I have placed peace on your platter. Even those of you who do not have the faith to praise me, grace has been given you that you might be encouraged to respond within your hearts. The opportunity to rise from your comfort zones is being offered. Rise from obscurity and leap to the heights of true victory. I will accept the sacrifices of praise and respond with miracles in deliverance.
I speak plainly, and I am touching minds to receive of the understanding that only faith can afford. Faith is rich and can afford the expensive items that impossibility has placed on sale before your eyes. Health is not possessed by impossibility, but health is mine to give. Sickness has come by ignorance and sin, but it has no claim to being impossible. The price it has listed is not too high, for nothing is impossible if you believe. Now believe the gospel and the word of faith, and then receive the healing that flows from your God. I am the Living Bread. I have sent it into your ears. Faith has come by hearing and so has the expectations of your heart. Close the door of impossibility and lift your voices with the triumphant praises of the Lord. I have responded and ambushed your impossibilities. Only believe.
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 Defeat, Discouragement, Double-Mindedness, Doubt, Impossibilities, Lies, Regret, Shame, and Sickness

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;)

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.
