There are no lockdowns or restrictions in God. You may be struggling with the control that has been exercised over our province and nation; so I release His peace, His joy and His love over you.
Regardless of the chaos that may be going around you, I declare that you are moving forward in freedom by the Spirit of the Living God. This is not the end. This is only the beginning of what God wants to do in our lives. He is asking us to go deeper in Him and trust Him in these difficult days.
In this journey of finding out who we are and how we are known in heaven, we are on an amazing treasure hunt to recognize and even uncover and unearth our own personal destiny. There are aspects of who we are that have been buried from hurt, pain, and even manipulation on the enemy’s part. Satan does not want us to discover who we are and whose we are because we then become untouchable by him. In Micah 4:13, God says, “I am making you into a people invincible, into God’s juggernaut to crush the godless peoples. You’ll bring plunder as holy offerings to God, their wealth to the Master of the earth.”
Juggernaut means a massive, unstoppable, force, campaign, movement or object that crushes whatever is in its path. This is one of the identifiers of who we are! We are juggernauts! We are invincible! We are God’s force that is moving forward to bring righteousness and justice to this earth!
Today, I was reading an article about ‘collectivism’; a word I have never heard of until now. According to www.vocabulary.com, “it is a political theory associated with communism. It is the idea that people should prioritize the good of society over the welfare of the individual. It is the opposite of individualism.” In theory, this all sounds good and well-meaning however, I am deeply troubled by this ideology that is creeping into society.
The enemy’s plan is to divide and conquer. He is sly and covert. He poses as “an angel of light” with catch phrases that appeal to the masses and begins to create a division amongst those who have been friends or connected in one way or another. It is troubling to see the deception that is covering many eyes and minds to his tricky and cunning ways. Yet, God is shaking and exposing the darkness.
God has never been about the masses. He has always been about the “one.” There are countless true, historical accounts of when He cared about the widow, the orphan, the lost one, the prodigal and the beggar. He even cares about the sparrow. “Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?” Matthew 6:26.
In the parable of the lost sheep, He is determined to find the one lost sheep; leaving the 99 behind. He cares about the one. He cares about you. In fact, “even the very hairs on your head are all numbered.”
Genesis 1:27 says, “God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” He has given us His DNA, creating us to be his sons and daughters. He says we are royalty, His chosen ones and His creation. How deep the Father’s love is for us; for me, for you. Let’s renew our minds to the “new normal” He has planned for us!
