AARON AND HUR

So it came about when Moses held his hand up, that Israel prevailed, and when he let his hand down,  Amalek prevailed.  But Moses’ hands were heavy.  Then they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it; and Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side and one on the other.  Thus his hands were steady until the sun set.    (Exodus 17: 11-12 NASB)

I have been thinking of this Scripture a lot lately.  A lot has been happening in my life and I have come to the realization of how important friends are in helping me to accomplish God’s will in my life.

I don’t mean just the friendship and fellowship I enjoy with my Brothers and Sisters in Christ.  And that is very special to me.  But, I mean the importance of those people that I consider the “Aaron and Hurs” in my life.

I pray that everyone has those prayer warriors that will stand on either side of you and help you “hold your arms up” as you battle and press through until you achieve what the Lord is calling you to do during this time.  Moses held the staff of God in his hand.  I believe he had God’s anointing and authority to win the battle…but he needed help to achieve victory.

I am so humbled as I have seen the Lord place one and then another beside me as I need the extra support to be obedient in His plans for me.  I can feel their prayers and support holding me up when I begin to feel weak and overwhelmed.  I can feel their strength added to mine as I battle those forces that would try and stop God’s will from being manifested in my life.

Brothers and Sisters!  We ALL need to join together as the Body of Christ and support and strengthen each other through the power of the Holy Spirit!  God’s strength is multiplied as we come together in love and unity to bring about His will and purpose upon this earth.  Battles are won as we line-up side by side, arms linked, focusing on the Lord and His plans for the moment.  Let’s not get so caught up in the “big picture” that we miss what He wants us to achieve in the next moment!  As we face each battle together…walking under the Lord’s Banner…we will see VICTORY!!  Hallelujah!

I humbly say “Thank you” to all those that are my “Aaron and Hurs.”  I can’t do it without you…

And I pray that I can be YOUR Aaron and Hur as the Lord uses you to achieve VICTORY in His kingdom!

INTREPID WARRIORS OF LOVE!

Sometimes we look at our lives and we ask God, “Why?”

We don’t understand why we are going through times of hurt; times of pain; times of weakness; times of warfare.

Beloved of God! The Lord is with us in and through it all! And not only is He with us…

But “…we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose”. (Romans 8:28)

Be assured, precious ones, that no matter what you are going through…no matter how bad it may seem…the Lord loves you!!

What the enemy would use for your destruction – The Lord will use to strengthen you…to equip you…to help you to become more than a mighty conqueror!

This is His promise…this is His Truth! Believe it and declare it!

Last night I heard in my spirit…“INTREPID WARRIORS OF LOVE!”

I went to the dictionary and looked up intrepid. It means “resolutely fearless; dauntless.”

I looked up dauntless. It means “not to be intimidated”.

Ahhhhhh Beloved of God! May you be fearless and not intimidated by your circumstances!

I declare and decree over you this day:

You are INTREPID WARRIORS OF LOVE!! GO FORTH IN THE POWER AND LOVE OF ALMIGHTY GOD!! Amen!

WHAT DO YOU SEE?

We can’t go where we can’t see.

I believe that the Lord is calling us to go places in the coming days where we may never have gone before.  But, it is so easy to think that we can’t “go there” because we can’t “see” ourselves in that position or place.  And the enemy would love for us to continue to not see and to be in the “dark.”

Satan will use everything he can to stop us from being all that God is calling us to be.  He will encourage us to look at things as they are in the “natural” and to put our focus on physical circumstances. He doesn’t want us to have “spiritual vision” to see things as they REALLY are!!

I am reminded of the Scripure 2 Kings 6:15-17:

Now when the attendant of the man of God had risen early and gone out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was circling the city.  And this servant said to him, “Alas, my master!  What shall we do?”

So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”

Then Elisha prayed and said, “O LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” And the LORD opened the servant’s eyes and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

In the natural, they seemed to be outnumbered by the enemy…BUT, spiritually they had more than enough to conquer the enemy!!  What is your “enemy” today?  Does it seem that there is no way out?  Does it seem that everything is going against you?  Does it seem that circumstances are beyond your control?

I would say to you that where it seems that there is no way…spiritually, God has already provided a way!!  His reality is different from our human reality.  His vision is different from our physical vision.

How we “see” ourselves is sometimes very different from how the Lord sees us! And where the Lord is calling us to go is sometimes very different from where we are now. Like Elisha, I pray:

Oh LORD, open their eyes that they may see!

Beloved of God…what do you see?

 

BIG God!

We serve a BIG God!

Nothing is too difficult for Him. Nothing comes as a “surprise” to Him.

He knows everything that has happened in our lives…He knows everything that is happening now…and He knows everything that will happen in the future.

Don’t fret! Don’t worry! Don’t fear!! He is with you and will guide you in your journey. He wants you to have victory over every circumstance!

We serve a BIG God!!
