It was by faith that Abraham obeyed when God called him to leave home and to another land that God would give him as his inheritance. He went without knowing where he was going. -Hebrews 11:8(NLT)
FOLLOWED WITHOUT A DOUBT
A poem and essay by ILMA
Have you ever been fearful of changes in your life?
If you follow Jesus, you will be guided by his light
It was by faith that Abraham became father of all nations
He followed without a doubt all of God’s instructions.
Are you willing to obey whatever you are called to do?
He will equip you with wisdom and strength to follow through
To obey the Lord brings you an overflow of inheritance
To have victory, you need to give up all forms of resistance.

Rebellion and stubbornness ran in my family of origin. It strongly manifested for many decades of my life. My life was chaotic when I lived in lawlessness, but as soon as I obeyed God’s will in my late twenties, many things changed. I had an overflow of blessings. When I reverted back to self-serving motives, once again, my life became very hard. So, I finally succumbed to his will then I experienced deliverance from many strongholds.
The bible says that Abraham obeyed God when he was instructed to leave him to another land. He followed even without knowing where God was leading him. He just obeyed.

PRAYER
Lord, help me follow you always.
REFLECTION
What was the consequence of your disobedience to God’s will?

You will trample upon lions and cobras; you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet. -Psalm 91:13(NLT)
CRUSHING THE ENEMY
A poem and essay by ILMA
Believers were given authority to trample on lions and serpents
To take full control and power to win, we must confess and repent
If you obey God’s will and use the sword of the Spirit, the devil will flee
One of his tactics is to generate lies so you cannot hear truth or see.
Run to the throne each time you experience all his attacks
This is the only way you can expose him and fight back
You cannot do it in your own strength or you will lose
Allow God to do the fighting and remain faithful and true.

One night I was asleep and felt a power hovering on top of my head in the pitch black darkness in our master’s bedroom. My husband was in deep sleep but I was awakened by this feeling that there was moving spirits hovering on top of my body. I usually have verses printed on paper beside me in the bed and memorize them before I went to bed. I just memorized a parallel verse to Psalm 91:13, Luke 10:19 that night before bed. I was able say out loud the verse says that I have power over the enemy and crush him and that I will not be harmed. The hovering spirit flee.
PRAYER
Thank you for the authority you have given me Lord.
REFLECTION
When was the last time you were victorious over the devil’s tactics?

PROTECTED BY ANGELS
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you know that God is faithful to those who love him?
He’s always with you and wants you to repent of your sins
He orders his angels to protect you wherever you go
Let God’s word be planted in your hearts so it can grow.
He has given you authority to trample and crush the enemy
You need to declare in his might name so you can have victory
His angels are encamped around you and protects you constantly
Look forward to all his promises so you can prosper continually.

We live in a war zone. Ephesians 6:12 says: For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. This verse tells us that we are in a daily battle with someone we don’t visually see. How can we win with a war when we don’t see the enemy? This whole chapter written by Paul to the Ephesians is a guide to all believers how to do spiritual combat with the enemy. We are instructed to put on all of God’s armor and reminded in Psalms 91 that God orders his angels to protect you wherever you go.
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for your reinforcements to protect me.
REFLECTION
Have you experienced angel presence in your life, especially when you were threatened or in danger?

Unseal my lips, O Lord, that my mouth may praise you. – Psalm 51:15(NLT)
LET MY MOUTH PRAISE YOU
A poem and essay by ILMA
Lord, you are awesome and praiseworthy
Everything you’ve created amazes me
Let me only have praise in my mouth
Help me only to let kind words out.
Unseal my lips so I can glorify you
Change me and have my mind renewed
Cleanse my heart so I can only say pure words
Help me rend my tongue so I can overcome this world.

You might have heard the saying that if you have nothing better to say, don’t open your mouth. It is natural for us to see and say the negative but supernatural to have the prudence to control what comes out of it. The bible says in James that if we could control our tongues, we would be perfect and could control ourselves in every other way. He also mentions that the tongue is a flame of fire, a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself; that people can tame all kinds of animals but no one can tame the tongue which is evil and full of deadly poison. Isn’t this so true? We could have saved some relationships if we were able to control it. We ought to only open our lips to praise God.
PRAYER
Help me rend my tongue Lord!
REFLECTION
How can we discipline and control what comes out our mouths?
