Day 19 - Prayer Journal: An Overcomer

Scripture
"Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." - 1 John 4:4

This morning I had a very disturbing dream. I usually know the interpretation of my dream right away or other times I know that the dream means exactly what was shown to me. But today was different. The dream was crystal clear, and God immediately gave me the revelation of that dream. The dream was a warning of an upcoming attack by the enemy. I sat quietly for over an hour just praying and meditating on what God had shown me. I even asked Him to repeat it so His words would be sealed into my spirit so that I would not easily forget the warning and to keep my spiritual eyes alert so I will recognize the attack for what it is and who it is from.

Not once did I worry or fret over what was shown to me. I simply rejoiced because I trust God, and every word He has ever spoken. To think that God began before I even woke up with me on His mind and He orchestrated my dream life to bring about His love and dominion in my life. God knows that sometimes He speaks with me but I am not attentive, but whenever He shows me something in a dream I pay attention. God showed me the dream to keep me from walking outside of His will and plan for My life. He gave me the revelation so that I would not fear but that I would know that I already have the victory secured through Jesus Christ. The Bible says that as children of God we have already defeated our enemies because God's spirit inside of us is more powerful than the spirit of the world /or the devil that enters people or situations which come against us. We are more than conquerors, and we have the victory!

Focus

• Praise God for being His child and the object of His affection.
• Thank God for the favor and victory that He has granted to you.
• Ask God to show you times that you were victorious because of His Holy spirit residing within you.
• Ask God to reveal to you the plan of your enemy before hand.
• Pray for God to direct your steps when you are attacked so that He is glorified.
• Praise God because your confidence is in Him and not in your ability or in a circumstance.
• Pray for God to show you how He reveals words of warning or victory to you so that you may discern His word for yourself.

Remember

The battle is not yours; it is the Lord's. This means that you don't have to fight or run. Just be still and see the salvation of the Lord. God is worthy of all honor and glory. You were born to be an overcomer.

Be Blessed!
