TO BE ESTABLISHED - TO BE SET UP FIRM

RHEMA 5/9/00:  I WILL ESTABLISH YOU

HEARD:  I heard the Lord say, I am maturing you quickly.  Setting you like concrete.

[This was very comforting to me as I was feeling very unstable and insecure.]

HOLY SPIRIT REMINDER:  I suddenly remembered that at home group last year someone saw my feet planted in concrete and said my feet would become set and stable and that there would be no foot mold quite like mine.

CONFIRMATION ANOINTED HANDS: I turned in my Bible to this scripture: 

Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God;” 

(2 Cor 1:21) 

When I looked up the word Stablisheth, it means to confirm the foot! 

STUDY FROM THE STRONG’S EXHAUSTIVE CONCORDANCE:

NT:950  bebaioo (beb-ah-yo'-o); from NT:949; to stabilitate (figuratively):  KJV - confirm, (e-) stablish.

{The second number 949 means the word was taken from the root word of #949:}

NT:949  bebaios (beb'-ah-yos); from the base of NT:939 (through the idea of basality); stable (literally or figuratively):  KJV - firm, of force, stedfast, sure.

NT:939  basis (bas'-ece); from baino (to walk); a pace ("base"), i.e. (by implication) the foot:  KJV - foot.

WORD TO PONDER:  I will establish you  5/09/00

Beloved, even though you feel unstable and insecure, I want you to know I will set your life like concrete.  I will plant your feet firmly so that you will be strong and be able to stand.  Your walk in Me will become firmly steadfast and sure.  Do not fear Beloved, I AM the One Who establishes you.  It is My promise.

2 Cor 1:21  AMP

But it is God Who confirms and makes us steadfast and establishes us [in joint fellowship] with you in Christ, and has consecrated and anointed us [enduing us with the gifts of the Holy Spirit].

RHEMA 3/25/03 SETTING UP FIRM

HEARD: God's touch on earth. Be like Him. Touch. Watch. Be a handmaiden. My dear one. Scars no longer.

PIX: I saw a liquid jello poured into the little bowls at our eating table.

HEARD: I'm setting you up. To be established, not to fall. Get your eyes off man.

WORD TO PONDER TO SET UP 3/25/03

Dear one, you are like liquid jello in your lack of confidence. Yes I have stripped you of many layers that did not belong to you. And yes the stripping hurt when you resisted My will and clung to your old nature.

Now after your surgery, you are weak and timid and shaky and lacking in confidence. Self confidence on its own is the pride and fall of man, generated by an independent and haughty spirit. God confidence is gained through a great time of weakness and learning to lean upon Me.

I want to bring you into a balance where you are confident in My work and promises in your life. Why would I leave you stripped, naked, shaky and unconfident when I AM your loving Daddy? Whey would I leave you so weak when I need you to touch an even weaker world through your hands? I desire you to become stable, assured, confident and built up. I will set you firm and establish you strongly.

“Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace, comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work.” (2 Thess 2:16-17 NKJV)
