Thoughts Higher Than Mine_Living Word Chronicle

I paid for you to live righteously, godly, and soberly, not to live and continue in sin. Grace will not abound if you continue to live in sin. Grace will teach you in spite of what you think about the consequences. The consequences of sin yield a great harvest of pain and sorrow, but the blessings of obedience and grace yield the greater harvest of joy and success. A kernel of wheat falls into the ground and dies then it brings forth much fruit. In place of the lonely kernel, you have an abundance of fruit. Choose the blessings of abundance in righteousness, which comes from your time alone in fellowship with me, or choose the curses of abundance in unrighteousness, which comes from your time alone in fellowship with sin. Choose this day what you shall reap.

(RHEMA: The Blessings of Obedience and Grace Yield the Greater Harvest of Joy and Success)

Jesus paid for me to live righteously, godly, and soberly, not to live and continue in sin. Grace will not abound if I continue to live in sin. Grace will teach me in spite of what I think about the consequences. The consequences of sin yield a great harvest of pain and sorrow, but the blessings of obedience and grace yield the greater harvest of joy and success. A kernel of wheat falls into the ground and dies then it brings forth much fruit. In place of the lonely kernel, I have an abundance of fruit. I choose the blessings of abundance in righteousness, which comes from my time alone in fellowship with God. I do not choose the curses of abundance in unrighteousness, which comes from my time alone in fellowship with sin. I will choose this day what I shall reap.

Moses Hightower

Freed from the Handicaps of Evil by the Cross of Jesus and the Words of Our Mouth

I have given you life. Abundant life is yours. Do not allow the contradiction of the devil to deny you the truth of this fact, neither allow envious people to assert their jealousy into your mind. I have blessed you. Do not hide your blessings, and do not fear to show forth my praises and the fruit of my many blessings. You do not need to feel guilty about being blessed. Blessings are from me. A man cannot receive anything unless it is given to him from above; therefore, rejoice. I have made your soul glad. Be not antagonized or annoyed by the attitudes of others. I have called you to show forth my goodness unto the sons of men. Be not irritated by the opposition of those who are weak in faith. Go and point them to the cross. By my cross, I moved every obstacle and arrested all the spirits of darkness. There is no barrier before you. Only the illusions of the enemy stand before you. Illusions are tricks of the devil. Many have been handicapped by the delusions sent from devils. Do not allow these things to become deterrents in your life. The obstructions that you have looked upon are not problems for me; therefore, be not inhibited by them. Walk on in faith. I have already worked out every problem. The rainbow of my promises is always with you. You dwell in heavenly places. How can earthly hindrances obstruct heavenly things?

No power can be against you if I am for you. If I am against you, who can be for you?

I am for you. Now rejoice, and go on to possess the land. I have given it unto you. Be not discouraged by the complications presented to you. Do not carry these things, for they are weights. If you attempt to carry them, they will become liabilities to you, and you will be disabled in the battle. The battle is mine, not yours. Go on to minister, and leave the battle up to me. Do not allow the devil's defiance to disturb your peace. I am your peace, and I cannot be disturbed. Be rich in faith, and you will never have to worry about these disadvantages. Do not allow your faith to be taken into custody. Free your faith with praise, and soar into the wide open spaces of victory. I have given you the wings of an eagle. Now be not seized or detained by these disadvantages. Evil cannot capture good, neither can darkness apprehend the light. You dwell in the brightness of my glory; therefore, be not incarcerated in the spiritual wheelchairs of unbelief. Unbelief has arrested many of the people's faith. Go and release them from unbelief's jail. The word of their release is in your mouth. Speak the words that I give. It is due season.

HANDICAPS OF EVIL

God has given me life. Abundant life is mine. I purpose not to allow the contradiction of the devil to deny me the truth of this fact, neither will I allow envious people to assert their jealousy into my mind. The Lord has blessed me. I choose not to hide my blessings, and I will not fear to show forth his praises and the fruit of his many blessings. I will not feel guilty about being blessed. Blessings are from the Lord. A man cannot receive anything unless it is given to him from above; therefore, I rejoice. He has made my soul glad. I am not antagonized or annoyed by the attitudes of others. The Lord has called me to show forth his goodness unto the sons of men. I am not irritated by the opposition of those who are weak in faith. I will go and point them to the cross.

I dwell in heavenly places. Earthly hindrances cannot obstruct heavenly things. No power can be against me if God is for me. If he is against me, then no one can be for me. God is for me.

If I attempt to carry them, they will become liabilities to me, and I will be disabled in the battle. The battle is the Lord's, not mine. I go on to minister and leave the battle up to him.

RHEMA

By Don Grigsby

RE: RHEMA - The Embrace of Righteousness and Peace Is a Pledge of God's Faithfulness

As I was praying, this came to me, and it was so similar that I sent this.

Why is not the heart and the mouth of my people rivers of praise that turns into a mighty flood as it banishes their weakness and demolishes the strongholds of their enemies. In the midst of their hurry through life, they almost create vacuums of power because they abandon the very dynamics that brought them out of sin and into my presence. As they release the gratitude into the channels of their mind and spirit, I will multiply its force and power beyond the reach of every adversity. Their worship and thanksgiving will provide and entrance to extra-dimensions of my power that will be revealed in their prophetic announcements of my greatness.

(Continued)

Look to the established creation of God that is in you, and you will not imagine these vain things about yourself and others. You are a new creature, and the only thing that avails anything is love and the bearing of other's burdens. Come from the trail of assumptions, and walk in the path of righteousness for my name's sake. For my name's sake, I am saving you from this dilemma. Worry not, for I have not opened my mouth and lied to you. I have sent forth my word, and it is complete. My word will not return to me empty and void. I have called you blessed.

472. Now who can call you cursed?

I am the miracle worker. Do not trust in your human ability or human reasoning. You will merely stagger at my promises. I quicken the dead and call those things, which be not, as though they were. Be not weak in faith, and consider not your own ability or the things that others can do. Have faith in my promises and me. Unbelief will stalk you each time impossibility faces you. Simply do not stagger at my promises through unbelief, but be strong in faith while you give glory to me. Be fully persuaded that what I have promised, I am able to perform.

473. Is anything too hard for me?

I have brought you goodness. I placed it in your path. Seek continually this goodness, and you will find joy unspeakable. This joy is full of my glory. This joy is endowed with power from on high. Place your trust in me again. You are leaning on your own arms of flesh. Lean on me, and experience the joy of the Lord again. You can of yourself do nothing. I am the God who aids with the small things also.

474. You know me as the miracle worker and the great, glorious victor in difficult times, but do you really know me as the God who is concerned about the small things in your life?

I have sought you today and drawn you unto my throne of grace. There is mercy and help in the grace here. Behold the mercy and the help made available to you.

475. Are there any weaknesses in my mercy and my help?
