How to Stand the Storms of Life 4 (Overcoming the Challenges of life)
We give glory and honour
unto the King of Kings and Lord of Lords for His great mercies, love, and wisdom
in our lives. This is lesson four on my teachings breaking the storms of life and becoming purposeful. In episode one, I
explained that we must apply the key of hope to enable us to overcome
discouragement, confusion, and challenges.
In episode two,
I explained that we must use the Abrahamic faith, the Word, and seek knowledge
to enable us to overcome the storms we face. In episode three,
I explained that we must use the key of light, the system of the world and
kingdom to enable us to overcome the storms of life.
In this episode, I will
share with you the three most exceptional spiritual keys we can use to overcome
the storms of life. I call these keys prayer, kingdom living, and supernatural
lifestyle. Prayer is one of the most powerful antidotes in the Spirit. It is
through prayer that the Holy Spirit revitalize our spirit to enable us to overcome
the storms of life.
There are some storms we
can never conquer until we pray. Apostle Paul commands that we must pray
without ceasing (See 1 Thessalonians 5:17). Without a prayer life, we limit the
flow of the Spirit. Prayer breaks the invisible barriers and arrows of the
enemy that makes us fearful and hopeless. Prayer booster our faith in Jesus Christ. If you don’t have a prayer life, you
become a prisoner in the kingdom of darkness.
I always emphasize in my
teaching service that “A prayerless Christian is a potential prey for the
enemy.” Prayerless Christians are powerless in the Spiritual realm. Without
prayer, you limit the flow of the supernatural. It is through prayer that we command God and His angels to fight the invisible enemies that limit us from progressing
in life.
This is what the Psalmist
says.
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under
the shadow of the Almighty.
Psalm 91:1 KJV
There is a secret place
God has prepared for His children. The devil and his minions cannot access this
place because it is the fortress of God. The question is, where can we find
this secret place? If this secret place is real, then there must be an entrance.
Know these truths.
- In this secret place, the storms of life cannot overtake us.
- In this secret place, God hides us from trouble.
- In this secret place, God delivers us from the plans of the enemy.
- In this secret place, we become invisible to our sworn enemies.
- In this secret place, no powers of darkness can penetrate.
- In this place, there is victory.
- In this secret place, we enjoy the peace of the Holy Spirit.
- In this secret place, we override the arrows of discouragement, confusion, and oppression.
- In this secret place, there is liberty.
- In this secret place, we exercise divine authority.
- In this secret place, we exercise our dominion mandate.
- In this secret place, we command the celestial forces to fight for us.
- In this secret place, the angels of God defend us.
- In this secret place, we walk in power.
- In this place, God shows forth His power and authority.
The question is, how can
we enter and abide in this secret place? We enter this secret place through Spirit-filled
prayer (worship, praise, and supplication unto the King of Kings and Lords). We
enter this arena through intensive intercessory prayers.
It is at this place that
we unload our burdens unto Jesus Christ. God delivers us from every arrow of
the enemy when we enter this place. Let us read from the Holy scriptures.
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under
the shadow of the Almighty.I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God;
in him will I trust.Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and
from the noisome pestilence.He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou
trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the
arrow that flieth by day;Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the
destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but
it shall not come nigh thee.Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the
wicked.Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even
the most High, thy habitation;There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy
dwelling.For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy
ways.They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot
against a stone.Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon
shalt thou trample under feet.Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I
will set him on high, because he hath known my name.He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him
in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
Psalm 91:1-16 KJV
When we enter this arena,
God and His angels are at duty to perform the promises attached. Why don’t you
build a consistent prayer life to enable you to enter this arena? Pursue the
kingdom righteousness, cry unto the Lord in prayers through fasting, and God
will deliver you from every trouble. He promised in His Word.
The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out
of all their troubles.
Psalm 34:17 KJV
God has attached
obedience to this promise. Some promises of God demand our obedience. If we
pursue the kingdom righteousness, build a prayer life and cry unto the Lord in
faith, God will deliver us from our adversary, affliction, anguish, distress, tribulation, trouble
and adversity.
Glory to God!
