A Crown of Praises for Our King Is the Desired Headline in Our Minds

By Moses Hightower

I have brought peace by the blood of Jesus. You have peace in a dimension in the heavenlies. I have set you far above all principality, power, might, dominion, and every name that is named. Remember that you are in Christ. You are in Christ…in Christ…IN CHRIST. Do not exchange your position here for any other positions. All things are under your feet, for all things are under the feet of Christ. You dwell in the one whose feet are upon the head of all powers. Know this of a truth; I have raised you up with Christ. You have entered into my rest. Accept my yoke. It is easy and my burden is light. Look unto me, the author and the finisher of your faith. I have begun a good work in you, and I will perform this good work continually.

You have the spirit of wisdom and revelation. You can do nothing of yourself. I am the one who works inside of you. I have touched the eyes of your understanding and enlightened them. You can now know the hope of my calling. You can know the riches of the glory of my inheritance in the saints. You can now know the exceeding greatness of my power toward all who believe. All these things are according to the working of my mighty power that has been wrought in Christ. Look unto me, for I am doing an exceeding great thing in the earth. Allow this great thing to be done in you.

Submit yourself unto me. Resist the devil, and he will flee from your presence. He has come to devour. He roams the earth as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. I have not chosen you to be a part of his diet. I have chosen you to rule over him. Do not fear. Lift up your voice in praise and thanksgiving as you deny yourself, pick up your cross, and follow me. Give no more attention to this evil one. He has no part with you. Offer praise unto me, and you will give glory unto me. Ignore his scare tactics. He has no power over you. I have given you power to tread upon all these things. Now send praise unto me. I will send the right hand of my power against this defeated foe. I have not brought you to heavenly places to grant headlines to foes under my feet. You have resisted him. Now give no more attention to him, lest you make him a star in your mind and your life's headlines. Give your total attention unto me. Worship me with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. It is written, "Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God and HIM ONLY shalt thou serve." (Matthew 4:10; Luke 4:8; Colossians 3:24) Do not serve your doubts and fears. Serve me, the ONLY LORD GOD.

Many are defeated because they have made the enemy their spiritual news. They have made the powers of darkness the headlines in their minds. I desire to be the headline in your mind. Seal me as a permanent headline in your heart and mind, and then will you be armed with the light of holiness and power. I am King of kings and Lord of lords. Crown me with your praises today and forevermore. Though you do not praise me, I am not a king without the crown of praises from others. I have presented myself unto you and revealed myself to you. Place the crown of praises from your heart and mouth upon me, and you shall behold the right hand of my power abolish all your fears. I am love. Behold the casting out of all your fears.

I knocked on your heart. Grace woke you up and my Spirit drew you to the door of prayer. I entered into your praises and inhabited them. I tasted your sacrifice and your prayers. I consumed them as a sweet savor. Now sit and taste of the words of my mouth. They are words to live by, for this is the Rhema of the Lord. My voice is not silent in the earth. I have given you a mouth and wisdom. The gainsayers cannot resist what I have given. Go forth in confidence and speak the words that I place in your mouth. My word is in your tongue. Go and preach. It shall be given you in the very hour of speaking what you shall say. It will not be you that speaks, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you. Open your mouth wide. I will fill it. Go preach.

Doubt, Fear, Ignorance, Misunderstanding, and Scare Tactics of the Devil

By Aaron Stickel

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light, and there was light."

Jesus has brought peace by his blood. I have peace in a dimension in the heavenlies. He has set me far above all principality, power, might, dominion, and every name that is named. I remember that I am in Christ. I am in Christ….in Christ… IN CHRIST. By grace, I will not exchange my position here for any other positions. All things are under my feet, for all things are under the feet of Christ. I dwell in the one whose feet are upon the head of all powers. I know this of a truth that God has raised me up with Christ. I have entered into his rest; therefore, I accept his yoke. It is easy and his burden is light. I look unto Jesus, the author and the finisher of my faith. He has begun a good work in me, and he will perform this good work continually.

I have the spirit of wisdom and revelation. I cannot do anything of myself, but Jesus is the one who works inside of me. He has touched the eyes of my understanding and enlightened them. I can now know the hope of his calling. I can know the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints. I can now know the exceeding greatness of his power toward all who believe. All these things are according to the working of the Lord’s mighty power that has been wrought in Christ. I look unto him, for he is doing an exceeding, great thing in the earth. I allow this great thing to be done in me.

I submit myself unto the Lord. I resist the devil, and he will flee from my presence. He has come to devour. He roams the earth as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. God has not chosen me to be a part of his diet. He has chosen me to rule over him. I will not fear. I lift up my voice in praise and thanksgiving as I deny myself, pick up my cross, and follow God. I will not give any more attention to this evil one. He has no part with me. I offer praise unto God, and I will give glory unto him. I ignore the scare tactics of the devil. He has no power over me. Jesus has given me power to tread upon all these things. Now I send praises unto the Lord. He will send the right hand of his power against this defeated foe. The Lord has not brought me to heavenly places to grant headlines to foes under his feet. I have resisted him. Now I will not give any more attention to him, lest I make him a star in my mind and my life's headlines. I give my total attention unto God. I determine to worship him with all my heart, all my soul, all my mind, and all my strength. It is written, "Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God and HIM ONLY shalt thou serve." I will not serve my doubts and fears, but I will serve Jesus, the ONLY LORD GOD.

Many are defeated because they have made the enemy their spiritual news. They have made the powers of darkness the headlines in their minds. God desires to be the headline in my mind. I seal him as a permanent headline in my heart and mind, and now I am armed with the light of holiness and power. Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords. I crown him with my praises today and forevermore. Though I have not praised him, he is not a king without the crown of praises from others. God has presented himself unto me and revealed himself to me. I place the crown of praises from my heart and mouth upon him, and I behold the right hand of his power abolish all my fears.

RE: RHEMA - A Crown of Praises for Our King Is the Desired Headline in Our Minds

Satan would like to print his slander and libel in the printing presses of our minds. God has instead used his laser like a revelation of light to engrave his eternal power in our minds and spirits with ink that cannot be erased. No headline of hell will ever be published in the hearts that only have ears for the voice of the Spirit. In Psalms 68:11, we are told that our God gives the word, and great is the company that published it. The church should be the prophetic publisher's clearing house! We will dump the lies of hell like so much trash and preserve and praise the volumes of the headlines of Rhema as if it were rare treasures. His words will not be like puns on our tongue but like the honey from the Rock of our redemption. We are above and not beneath the traffic of the enemy. We have been given power and dominion over all the power of the enemy. In life, men have said that the pen is more powerful than the sword. We have as his chosen vessels a sword of the Spirit that is like the pen of ready writer. It is a mouth that none can gainsay or resist. We will publish in our confession the demise of the kingdom of darkness. Our praise will detail the destruction of the darkness by the words of light. We will crown the King of kings with the declarations of the demonstration of the Spirit!

By Moses Hightower

You were conceived in sin and shapened in iniquity. You had no choice as to who you are by natural birth, but you do have a choice as to who you will become by spiritual birth. You were not responsible for being born a sinner, but the full responsibility rests upon you as to whether you will remain one. You can be born a saint today, or you may keep the shackles of sin that were yours when you came into this world. Why march to your judgment without the payment price for sins in your life's account?

RE: RHEMA - Look Up To the Name Which Transports the Blood of Redemption

We have been ransomed out of the dungeons of condemnation and death. We have been redeemed from the feeling of the curse and fear. He has delivered us from the spirit of bondage. The name of Jesus is the consummate meaning of the Kinsman Redeemer. He is not only the One who pays the price to buy us back from the servitude of sin, but he is the avenger of his people and our vindicator. We have been justified beyond the accusations of the liar. Our lawyer destroyed all of the evidence when he was nailed to his cross. When we run into the name of the Lord, the strong tower will shower the invaders of our lives with the arrows of truth that will put them to flight. The creator that has stretched out the universe like a curtain will unfold his banner of love over us. His name is to be declared all the day long. Just like the trumpets that were used as the call to battle, as a call to worship and when it was time to move the camp. Our fellowship is not with darkness or the false idols of the darkness. We do not lift up the icons of today, but we love the One who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. His name is still the blood covering on the door posts of life. Death is coming to those who do not believe in the power of his blood to cover us. We will eat the whole Lamb with living bread and wait to go out of Egypt at midnight.

By Moses Hightower

(Continued)

Give all glory unto me in this new move of God in your midst, and I will not allow the admittance of any evil spirits, except for their own defeat. Remain focused on prayer and ministry of the word. Behold the word of God. It shall grow and multiply.

310. Is there an alternative way into my kingdom?

I AM THAT I AM. I am your confidence. Rely on me and not on what you think about me. You do not know me well enough to base your faith in your knowledge of me. Cast your confidence totally on me. He who comes to me must first believe that I am and that I am the rewarder of those who diligently seek me. I have said, “I will withhold no good thing from those who walk uprightly.” Walk in the righteousness of faith and not in the unrighteousness of faith in your own faith. Behold the uprightness of the walk of the Lamb of God. Behold his completed work as the sacrificial Lamb.

311. Did he complete his work in the earth?

Then struggle no longer with your emotions that run to and fro before my throne in an attempt to impress me. I am not impressed by anything that you do, except to believe. Have faith in me. You have asked for a miracle.

312. Now do you trust me to give you a miracle?

I thank you, O Lord, that you have brought peace by your blood. I have peace in a dimension in the heavenlies. You have set me far above all principality, power, might, dominion, and every name that is named. I remember that I am in you, the Christ. I am in you….in you…..IN YOU. By grace, I will not exchange my position here for any other positions. All things are under my feet, for all things are under your feet. I am grateful that I dwell in the one whose feet are upon the head of all powers. I know this of a truth that you have raised me up with you. I have entered into your rest; therefore, I accept your yoke. It is easy and your burden is light. I look unto you, the author and the finisher of my faith. You have begun a good work in me, and you will perform this good work continually.

I am thankful to have the spirit of wisdom and revelation. I cannot do anything of myself, but you are the one who works inside of me. You have touched the eyes of my understanding and enlightened them. I can now know the hope of your calling. I can know the riches of the glory of your inheritance in the saints. I can now know the exceeding greatness of your power toward all who believe. All these things are according to the working of your mighty power that has been wrought in Christ. I look unto you, for you are doing an exceeding, great thing in the earth. I allow this great thing to be done in me.
I submit myself unto you, my King. I resist the devil, and he will flee from my presence. He has come to devour. He roams the earth as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. I am overjoyed that you have not chosen me to be a part of his diet. You have chosen me to rule over him. I will not fear. I lift up my voice in praise and thanksgiving as I deny myself, pick up my cross, and follow you. I will not give any more attention to this evil one. He has no part with me. I offer praise and glory unto you. I ignore the scare tactics of the devil. He has no power over me. Jesus, you have given me power to tread upon all these things. Now I send praises unto you, and you will send the right hand of your power against this defeated foe. You have not brought me to heavenly places to grant headlines to foes under your feet. I have resisted him. Now I will not give any more attention to him, lest I make him a star in my mind and my life's headlines. I give my total attention unto you. I am determined to worship you with all my heart, all my soul, all my mind, and all my strength. It is written, "Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God and HIM ONLY shalt thou serve." I will not serve my doubts and fears, but I will serve you, the ONLY LORD GOD.

Many are defeated because they have made the enemy their spiritual news. They have made the powers of darkness the headlines in their minds. You desire to be the headline in my mind. I seal you as a permanent headline in my heart and mind, and now I am armed with the light of holiness and power. You are King of kings and Lord of lords. I crown you with my praises today and forevermore. Though I have not praised you as I ought, you are not a king without the crown of praises from others. You have presented yourself unto me and revealed yourself to me. I place the crown of praises from my heart and mouth upon you, and I behold the right hand of your power abolish all my fears. You are love. I behold the casting out of all my fears. I am thankful that you knocked on my heart. Your grace woke me up, and your Spirit drew me to the door of prayer. I am overwhelmed that you entered into my praises and inhabited them. You tasted my sacrifice and my prayers. You consumed them as a sweet savor. Now I sit and taste of the words of your mouth. They are words to live by, for this is your Rhema, my God. Your voice is not silent in the earth. You have given me a mouth and wisdom. The gainsayers cannot resist what you have given. By faith, I will go forth in confidence and speak the words that you have placed in my mouth. Your word is in my tongue. I will go and preach. It shall be given to me in the very hour of speaking what I shall say. It will not be me that speaks, but you, the Spirit who speaks in me. I open my mouth wide, and you will fill it. I will go and preach.

Satan would like to print his slander and libel in the printing presses of my mind, but instead you have used your laser like revelation of light to engrave your eternal power in my mind and spirit with ink that cannot be erased. As long as I only have ears for the voice of your Spirit, no headline of hell will ever be published in my heart. Psalms 68:11 reminds me that you give the word and great is the company that publishes it. The church should be the prophetic publications clearinghouse! I am committed to preserving the volumes of the headlines of Rhema as if it were rare treasures. Your words will not be like puns on our tongue, but they will be like the honey from the Rock of our redemption. I rejoice greatly that I am above and not beneath the traffic of the enemy. You have given power and dominion over all the power of the enemy. In life, men have said that the pen is more powerful than the sword. As one of your chosen, I thank you for making me a vessel and for giving me a sword of the Spirit that is like the pen of a ready writer. None can gainsay or resist this ready writer. I will publish in my confession the demise of the kingdom of darkness. My praise will detail the destruction of the darkness by your words of light. With the declarations of my mouth and the demonstration of your Spirit, I crown you the King of kings, for you alone are worthy.

RE: PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING - February 18, 2007

With a heart of rejoicing, we publish peace and good tidings of a good report. We will not publish the doom and gloom of the adversary or the prognosticators of negativity. Terror is not a lead story in the headlines of our mind and out of our mouth. God has given us great things, and we are the company that is publishing them. Peace is not just the absence of conflict, but it has to do with wholeness, completion, repair, restoration, and finishing the unfinished. He who hath begun a good work in us will complete it. God has not appointed us to wrath, neither has he appointed us to destruction by the devil. We will do as Hezekiah did with Sennacherib's letter and threats and place them before God. God is the editing chief of the news of life. Just as God blots out our sins, he will blot out the terrorist threats and libel of the enemy. Sennacherib and his army quickly became yesterday's obituary column that was washed away like a flood by the power of the Lord. It shall be written of us that we will have peace and reign in life by the power of the Prince of Peace.
