HOW TO OVERCOME STRONGHOLDS 9/21/13
HEARD:
I love these dishes, they cost more than
you think.
PIX:
I saw a well-organized utensil drawer where there was a
slot for each utensil. However there were some of the
children’s utensils on top of them and they were faced
the wrong direction.
HEARD:
The arches on McDonalds are golden. Why?
Reach higher.
HEARD:
Come up higher and bring forth clean
fruit. Taste and see that the Lord is good.
Strongholds demolish. Sweet memories, bitter memories.
Recalling memories keep strongholds alive.
Understanding that some memories are not nice,
bitterness removed. They wont be remembered forever.
These are My own ones, having overcome the attempts of
the enemy to poison their waters. Bitter soil.
HEARD:
What is a stronghold?
2 Corinthians 10:3-6 For though we walk in the flesh,
we do not war according to the flesh: 4 (For the weapons
of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to
the pulling down of strongholds;) 5 Casting down
arguments, and every high thing that exalts itself
against the knowledge of God, and bringing into
captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6
And having a readiness to punish all disobedience, when
your obedience is fulfilled.
HEARD:
Root of bitterness. Seeking clarity from
a mental stronghold. But. There are no buts. We are
still not done. A valiant effort. Comfort one another
with these words. Over time. Strongholds do fall. To
think differently.
[I was thinking about thinking clearly, properly
distinguishing issues in life through His perspective
and truth:]
James 3:11 Does a fountain send forth at the same
place sweet water and bitter?
-
Clarity
and bitterness cannot come from the same well.
-
Understanding and bitterness cannot come from the
same well.
-
Bitterness clouds and poisons all that it comes in
contact with.
HEARD:
Stronghold. Clarity. It is as you say.
What is a stronghold? I will show you and teach
you. Anything that makes you vulnerable to taking the
mark of the beast. The horseman has he not taken it?
Revelation 6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse:
and he that sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given
unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and
as you have heard that antichrist shall come, even now
are there many antichrists; by which we know that it is
the last time.
HEARD:
That’s where the world is headed dear
ones. It’s one thing to see somebody’s ideals, it’s
another to live them. Take this to heart.
James 1:22 But be you doers of the word, and not
hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
HEARD:
Our places of captivity.
PIX:
I saw a red sports car with only 2 seats in the front.
HEARD:
The wife and the kids, they are doing
better.
VISION:
I saw an elderly man being wheeled around in a wheel
chair. I saw a huge giant looming over a wheel chair and
wheeling it.
VISION:
I saw a large group of bikers who were riding together
in a unified group and they all had safety helmets on.
In the opposite lane someone was stopped short because
he realized he was going in the wrong direction.
HEARD:
The Lord has shown me. How empty.
Hos 10:4 NLT
They spout empty words and make covenants they don't
intend to keep. So injustice springs up among them like
poisonous weeds in a farmer's field.
HEARD:
Now what to do about it? Take your
thoughts captives. Giant, what you face. Do not let it
have rule. Be obedient to scripture. Forgive, let go,
bless.
2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down arguments, and every
high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of
God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the
obedience of Christ;
PIX:
I saw the words, forgive, let GO, BLESS.
Matthew 6:15 But if you forgive not men their
trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your
trespasses.

Rom 4:7-8 AMP
Blessed and happy and to be envied are those whose
iniquities are forgiven and whose sins are covered up
and completely buried. Blessed and happy and to be
envied is the person of whose sin the Lord will take no
account nor reckon it against him. [Ps 32:1,2.]
Matt 18:21-23 NKJV
Then Peter came to Him and said, "Lord, how often
shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up
to seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to
you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.
HEARD:
Embrace with a full heart of love. Let My
goodness conquer evil. I AM kind. I forgive. I AM
loving. I bend low. To be gracious. Even to My
enemies. Now you do it. Use this on your thoughts.
Follow through.
Romans 12:21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome
evil with good.
Luke 6:35-36 But love your enemies, and do good, and
lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward
shall be great, and you shall be the children of the
Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the
evil. 36 Be you therefore merciful, as your Father also
is merciful.
Matthew 5:44-48 But I say unto you, Love your
enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that
hate you, and pray for them who despitefully use you,
and persecute you; 45 That you may be the children of
your Father who is in heaven: for he makes his sun to
rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the
just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love them who love
you, what reward have you? do not even the tax
collectors the same? 47 And if you greet your brethren
only, what do you more than others? do not even the tax
collectors so? 48 Be you therefore perfect, even as your
Father who is in heaven is perfect.
WORD TO PONDER: OVERCOMING STRONGHOLDS 9/21/13
I AM sending truth to help My own ones overcome
strongholds - twisted ways of thinking that are not in
submission to the Word of My truth. Many strongholds
come from nurturing and recalling bitter childhood
memories. Grab ahold of these thoughts and submit them
to Me. Forgive and let go, put them down at the foot of
My cross and let Me wash you, beloved ones.
Allow My
Spirit to cleanse your heart from bitter soil so that
you can find a new way of thinking, or perceiving life.
Those who do not go through this process will become so
embittered, that the lying antichrist spirit will
overtake them and destroy their soul. Take this to
heart, and learn to DO My Word, not just hear it. Every
thought that does not align with My Word, take it
captive and into complete submission. Yes sometimes you
must do this all day long until you have finally thrown
it down. This is a spiritual battle and I have given
you power to overthrow.
Learn to forgive, let go of all offenses that have
caused you sorrow. Forsake those places of stumbling,
leave them behind. Forgive and release those who have
hurt you from all judgment. How? BLESS them. I AM
good, forgiving, gracious, loving and kind dear ones.
Follow Me. Love even your enemies, those who seek to
destroy your lives. In so doing you will not only save
your own soul, but possibly change their heart and save
them from hell. Always overcome evil with good. That
is Who I AM.
2Co 10:4-5 AMP
4 For the weapons of our warfare are not physical
[weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before
God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds,
5 [Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and theories and
reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets
itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we
lead every thought and purpose away captive into the
obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
