“I am your heart,”  he said to me late last night, as I sat worshiping him in my heart.  I was taken for a moment in that phrase, as I contemplated so many facets of that statement.


I thought to myself…..




Does that mean— in my heart I am fixed on the Lord, he is my all in all?


Does that mean— literally all that our hearts are, when functioning properly, is of the Lord (all good things come from him)?


Does it mean— I don’t have a heart of ‘my own’ anymore, and the one he gave me is his now?


Does it mean— all love, and mercy, and grace, and all good things that reside in my heart are because of him being in my life/soul?


Does it mean— that, of course— we all, at our roots, were formed straight from the heart of God, and without corruption— share one heart— and there really, in God again— is only one heart (corporate)?




And he said, “yes, to all of that.”



Which then led us to more conversations about what it is to have God’s heart, and to share God’s heart;  what is in there, what is upheld in there— and what it operates like:  truth, mercy, forgiveness, grace, morality, holiness, righteousness, obedience, honor, servitude, respect, preference of others over self (selflessness and humility), etcetera and so on.


And then that— led to a conversation about the wiles of the devil, with his goals to keep us estranged from God, and NOT TO RECEIVE HIS CLEAN and PURE HEART ONCE AGAIN.


This is the working out of that conversation that began with a dear sister in Christ last night— as we mulled over our lives, battles, and relationships with the Lord, and struggles to uphold the Lord and the Truth— that is common to all men.



[I will expound on scripture in the video, individually, but not in notes— as to what the Lord is revealing.]

Deuteronomy 5:2, 4, 25-33

“...The Lord our God made a covenant with us…

The Lord talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire.



[Then Moses speaks about the 10 commandments recited to the people.]



Now therefore why should we die? For this great fire will consume us: if we hear the voice of the Lord our God anymore— then we shall die.


For who is there of all flesh, that has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire— as we have— and lived?


You go near, and hear all that the Lord our God shall say: and speak to us all that the Lord our God shall speak unto you; and we will hear it, and do it.


And the Lord heard the voice of your words, when you spoke unto me; and the Lord said unto me— I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto you: they have well said, all that they have spoken.


Oh that there were such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always— that it might be well with them, and with their children forever!


Go say to them— Get you into your tents again.


But as for you— stand here by me, and I will speak unto you all the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments— which you shall teach them— that they may do them in, the land which I give them to possess.


You shall observe to do therefore as the Lord your God has commanded you: you shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.


You shall walk in all the ways which the Lord your God has commanded you, that you may live, and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.”





1 Kings 2:43-44

“Why then have you not kept the oath of the Lord, and the commandment that I have charged you with?


The king (Solomon) said moreover to Shimei— You know all the wickedness that your heart is privy to— that you did to David my father: therefore the Lord shall return your wickedness upon your own head.”






1 Kings 3:3-6, 9-10, 11-14

“And Solomon loved the Lord, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.


And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.


In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said— Ask what I shall give you.


And Solomon said— You have shown unto your servant David my father great mercy— according as he walked before you in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with you; and you have kept for him this great kindness, that you have given him a son to sit on his throne— as it is this day.


Give therefore your servant an understanding heart to judge your people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this— your so great a people?


And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.


And God said unto him— Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself long life; neither have asked riches for yourself, nor have you asked for the life of your enemies; but have asked for yourself understanding— to discern judgment— Behold, I have done according to your words: lo, I have given you a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like you— before you, and neither after you shall any arise like unto you.


And I have also given you that which you have not asked— both riches, and honor: so that there shall not be any among the kings— like unto you— all your days.


And if you will walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments— as your father David did walk— then I will lengthen your days.”





1 Kings 8:17

“And it was in the heart of David my father to build a house— for the name of the Lord God of Israel.”




1 Kings 8:18

“And the Lord said unto David my father— Whereas it was in your heart to build a house unto my name— you did well that it was in your heart.”




1 Kings 9:2-9

“That the Lord appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon.


And the Lord said unto him— I have heard your prayer and your supplication, that you have made before me: I have hallowed this house, which you have built, to put my name there forever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.


And if you will walk before me— as David your father walked— in integrity of heart, and in uprightness— to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my judgments:  Then I will establish the throne of your kingdom upon Israel forever— as I promised to David your father, saying— There shall not fail you a man upon the throne of Israel.


But if you shall at all turn from following me— you or your children— and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them:  Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:


And at this house, which is high, every one that passes by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say— Why has the Lord done thus unto this land, and to this house?


And they shall answer— Because they forsook the Lord their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshiped them, and served them: therefore has the Lord brought upon them all this evil.”





1 Kings 14:7-9

“Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over my people Israel, and rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to you: and yet you have not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart— to do that only which was right in my eyes;  But have done evil above all that were before you: for you have gone and made yourself other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and have cast me behind your back.”



A God is someone we attend to, worship, honor, listen to and heed, who counsels with us (walks and talks with us in the cool of the day), and leads us in his ways:  a master over us.  When we give into other voices, believe them— we honor them, listen, heed what they are saying— come into fear and condemnation, shy away from God— cleave to them, and in this— we worship another ‘god.’  And we are found in idolatry of the heart, just by giving into the lies and upholding them, whilst fixated on them.


This is the seduction of a devil— in the ignorances of men, and how spiritual adultery takes place within the hearts of men and women— who have no intention to cheat on God holy;  but do, nonetheless, because of their ignorance to the fact that— what we uphold and entertain within, we exalt and worship.

1 Chronicles 28:9

“And you, Solomon my son, you know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the Lord searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts: if you seek him, he will be found of you; but if you forsake him— he will cast you off forever.”



1 Chronicles 29:17

“I know also— my God— that you try the heart, and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me— in the uprightness of my heart— I have willingly offered all these things…”



1 Samuel 2:35

“And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before my anointed forever.”



1 Chronicles 28:2

“Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said— Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord…”




The ark— is in all spiritual symbolism— God’s presence with man, and exalted:  the marriage seat (seat of mercy extended to us where we commune), the word of truth, the testimony of our joint relationship in covenant, the holiness upheld (cherubim and presence of the Lord), gold (purity of righteous holiness), the prayers and incense (communion and sacrifices made in our hearts), the continual offering of the blood of the Lamb on the altar (reconciled relations), the horns of the altar where we hold onto him and the truth and exalt both in our souls.



And let’s not forget— it is to be ‘carried’ (heart reference) by holy men (priests of the Lord), set apart:  that is the presence of the Lord, in the hearts/souls of men and women— high and exalted within.





When we carry the ‘ark,’ the presence of the Lord in our hearts/tabernacles, and exalt him, his truth, the marriage, the purity, the communion, sacrifice and the testimony of in our temples, the blood upheld in relationship reconciled— the continual upholding of the blood of the Lamb…


And we ‘carry’ the presence of the Lord, as holy and set apart ones unto him, within, in our hearts (holy priests of the Lord, of the Order of Melchizedek), where God is highly exalted within— our heart is at rest, and at one with God.


No devil dare go there!

2 Kings 10:15

“And when he was departed thence, he lighted on Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him: and he saluted him, and said to him— Is your heart right, as my heart is with your heart? And Jehonadab answered— It is. If it be, give me your hand. And he gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.”




I believe the Lord is searching the hearts, all hearts— to see to that very same question, himself:  is there faith in all the earth, unto him.  Which is to say, essentially— Whose heart is unto me?  Who has my heart, the heart for God?




“Is your heart right with me, as my heart is with yours?

If so— Give me your hand.” 

(marriage, covenant:  the heart)

Job 33:3

“My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.”



Psalm 9:1

“I will praise you, O Lord— with my whole heart [mind, heart, awares, understanding]; I will show forth all your marvelous works.”



Psalm 17:3

“You have proved my heart; you have visited me in the night; you have tried me— and shalt find nothing…”



Psalm 26:2

“Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.”



Psalm 86:11

“Teach me your way, O Lord; I will walk in your truth:  unite my heart to fear your name.”



Psalm 111:1

“Praise the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.”


_________



Psalm 27:1-4

“The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?


When the wicked, even my enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh— they stumbled and fell.


Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.


One thing have I desired of the Lord— that I will seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple.




It is ‘his temple,’ yes?  Our hearts— are not our own, they were bought with the price of the Lamb’s life and blood sacrifice;  and in that— he gave us HIS HEART to share;  HE IS OUR HEART— if we are ‘his.’ 


This is the living heart of God, not the stone heart of carnal (soulish) man.




Isaiah 51:7

“Hearken unto me— You that know righteousness, the people— in whose heart is my law…”


_________



Jeremiah 24:7

“And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the Lord: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto me with their whole heart.”




Jeremiah 4:4

Circumcise yourselves to the Lord— and take away the foreskins of your heart…”




Jeremiah 31:33

“This shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord— I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.”


_______


[Word from the Lord]


“After the days in which we circumcise our hearts to him—” he said to me.

“Then will I put my law in their inner man, and write it in their hearts (because it’s my truth, my conduct, my ways, my heart that is established in them now), and NOW— they shall be the people of the Lord God holy.”


_______



Jeremiah 32:40-41

“And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts— that they shall not depart from me.  Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.”



Ezekiel 44:9

“Thus saith the Lord God; No stranger— uncircumcised in heart— nor uncircumcised in flesh— shall enter into my sanctuary, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel.”



Now we do not have to be circumcised in the flesh, because we are not under the old covenant with God— but under the New Covenant in and with Christ Jesus;  but we do have to still have circumcised hearts unto him:  and that means— to cut away the fleshly soul/heart, and walk pure, clean/sanctified and consecrated to him, in truth and love— in our inner man.

There is a different heart.



Exodus 9:13-15

“And the Lord said unto Moses— Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him— Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews— Let my people go, that they may serve me.


For I will at this time send all my plagues upon your heart, and upon your servants, and upon your people; that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth.


For now I will stretch out my hand, that I may smite you and your people with pestilence; and you shall be cut off from the earth.”




God’s desire is that his people— serve him, not the enemy voices.  We have to come out of covenant and honor to the enemy voice of lies and perversion— in order to cleave, or cling to the voice of God holy, who walks in truth and narrow conduct of righteous living, and morality upheld within.


The heart/soul that is upholding the enemy— will have plagues (ruin) set upon it, just as happened to the hardened heart of Pharaoh;  that could be literally, but definitely spiritual:  because it is the kingdom and ruler of— that is being exalted within (satan), sin and death.



Isaiah 14:13

“For you have said in your heart— I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north.  I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;  I will be like the most High.”



Jeremiah 13:10

“This evil people, who refuse to hear my words, who walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other gods— to serve them, and to worship them— shall even be as this girdle, which is good for nothing.”



Ezekiel 20:16

“Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.”




Hosea 4:8

“They eat up the sin of my people— and they set their heart on their iniquity.”

[demonic]



The demonic— CONSUME THEIR LUSTS IN OUR SINS, they eat up sin, link to it— like magnets, when it is upheld;  because that is their ways being exalted within, and now— it is their throne within, as well.  All because the people set their hearts out to do iniquity:  that is continued in sin— and yet many believe they do not need to repent and turn from their former ways, and humble themselves before the Lord.


And we can see that demons eat up sin, and sinners— because they continue in their sin— which is iniquity.



Oh Lord, create a clean heart in me— you know, he says that is what he is doing in scripture;  1 John 1:9 — “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”


His job, the Holy Spirit, is to bring us into all truth— and for this reason;  if we exalt the enemy, continue in transgressing God (living, not how he conducts his person, not exalting the truth, or righteous holiness within, and the King of) —we will be consumed by the demonic in our lives here, in the earth realm:  for they come to eat on the sin of the people (sup with them in their pig slop);  all because the people in their hearts— uphold continued in sin.


That is ANYTHING CONTRARY TO THE TRUTH, folks;  sin, is transgression of morality:  and his morals and ethics uphold the truth, holiness, and righteousness.  So— when we do not, when we are not believing in him, his love, his identity, his faithfulness— we are in sin.  


In fact— anything not done in faith (trust and commitment to God and his person) —is sin.



We really need to check our hearts, and see if they are aligned with him, the truth, righteousness (as he lives in) and holiness, love and mercy:  for it not— we may have idolatry going on, and spiritual adultery, and be exalting devils and their rhetoric and ways within.



But the good news is— if you are finding you have coupled with the enemy in any way— he comes to cleanse us from all unrighteousness, when we confess our sins to him— for he is faithful to forgive us our sins!


REPENT, REPENT— for God, and his kingdom have come unto you;  and he desires for you to turn back to him in your heartexalt his truth, and him, within— and allow him to purge and sanctify your heart from all unrighteousness.


This is the Love of God— unto his people.

There is a ‘tactic’ the enemy uses against God’s people, again and again.  And that is— ‘personal’ attack (as in offended, and seduced personally) —it is being caught up in something contrary to the word of God (like looking at past sins that are forgiven already— and under the blood, but holding them before our faces, exalting them within, etc).  


When we take it ‘personally,’ the attack of the enemy toward us, with their rhetoric/voices and accusations (accusers of the brethren) —that’s when we fall into the Fowler's trap.


Our long gone sins are to him, as removed as the east is from the west.


But when we become easily provoked— it’s because we are not upholding the Truth (or his person) in the throne room of our vessels.


We should, ideally, be able to hear the lie— and know it is a lie, and has nothing to do with us (as a forgiven child of God), and know that what the demons are spewing— does not even pertain to us at all;  that’s when we do not play their game:  because we do not let it in, the lies, to penetrate our hearts and minds;  we do not agree with the lie, because we have already agreed with the truth— and our hearts believe, know and are— as the Lord’s on these matters.


But we have to KNOW THE TRUTH (scripture, and God’s ways, and what he has to say about issues in life) in order to uphold the truth within;  we must read scripture, and study to show ourselves approved.



But the Lord did say to me, that when we will uphold the truth (what he and scripture says about a matter) — “That is when the dart/arrow, misses the mark in the attack.”



That is when the plot was to take you down by a lie, accusation, or any other seduction to take your eyes off the truth, the King of, or holiness and righteousness— but it is now foiled, because you already bought the truth;  so the lie could not impact you personally, nor do any damage, or even threaten to take root (that is when it sticks around in us).



Patterns, devils work in patterns;  what worked before, they will work again;  meaning— if they were able to get you down before, with one thing they slung at you— they will sling it again from time to time, to drag you back into it.  This is our job to fight back with upholding the truth and the King of, within.


If we will notice the patterns, we will defeat the enemy;  because once the pattern is found, and you fight that same issue again and again— you will, at some point— overcome that issue (lie and belief, and struggle) with the truth;  because you will have had to use the truth again and again— to even come out of it one time;  eventually— you will believe the truth, because it got rooted into your soul for real;  and the old pattern of attack that they sling— will not hit target:  because now— you are not a victim to a lie, you are victor— who stands in the truth.



We are already warriors— in the fight.  



Resolute—   admirably, purposeful, determined, and unwavering;  because you have resolved something— you walk in resolution.


Resolved— settle and find a solution, decide firmly on a course or action, no more discordant— but in harmony, firm determination to do something;  root definition— late Middle English— in the senses ‘dissolve, disintegrate’ and ‘solve’ (a problem): from Latin resolvere, from re- (expressing intensive force) + solvere ‘loosen’.



When we are resolute warriors, set out to exalt the truth and the God of— we will purposefully, and admirably, unwaveringly (not give up) —set to resolve issues in our souls with him;  we will walk in resolution— or in resolve.


And to walk in resolve, is to— walk in the solution, having decided firmly on the course of action needed, not walking in opposition to God any longer— discordant— but now in harmony (one in Spirit, one heart and mind), fully determined to do just that— to dissolve and disintegrate any union with the devil, lies and estrangement through sin:  we are loosened from the bonds/bands of sin and transgression, from— estrangement and discordant hearts.


A resolute warrior does not mean— one who never loses a battle with his foe;  it means they do not give up on God or the truth, righteousness or holiness— to be erected and exalted within their souls:  and they will fight the good fight of faith in God— all the way to the end;  that is a resolute warrior of God (he tells me).



We are ever learning and growing, sparring with the enemy and getting closer to God, and more like God.


A warrior does not mean you will never have a defeat— but it does mean you will grow, learn, strengthen, get wiser to the cunning of the devil— and rise back up, resolutely determined to— keep the ways of the Lord, keep the truth and sell it not, and stand up in the Lord again, to fight another day:  under the training of the Master.



The little battles, are the big battles;  and what we think are the big battles, or stands with the Lord (Red Sea) —are actually not the big battles, but the culmination moments played out— that came from the relationship fostered in the little daily battles won— to trust and learn from the Lord, coming into agreement with him there— defeating satan inside;  then— the Red Sea moments we will need to walk out— will be the easier things, as he commands us:  for the foundation for them— will already have been laid, relationally.


We must rebuild the foundations— we must have his mind and heart;  we must know his ways and exalt them and him inside.  We must do this— for in this we win battles against the enemy of our souls (the carnal nature, and the ones in the spirit who uphold it);  because they come to destroy our foundation (built on the truth) —one brick, one stone, one day, and one issue at a time:  FIGHT BACK IN THE DAILY BATTLES, WIN THEM THERE IN THE HEART— give your heart to God fully, and live from his heart.



No enemy can stand where God stands;  so uphold him, exalt him, let him STAND within our hearts:  he is the heart of the child of God.



Believe in God, his identity;  believe in our identity in him;  and the battles will be won.  Seek his heart, to have his heart— the living heart— inside of you;  and the devils will flee:  uphold truth, love truth, recite truth— fight the devil in your souls like God did in the wilderness temptation;  give him scripture back, that you BELIEVE— and he will flee from you, and with him— all the hurt, torment, pressure, condemnation, and every other immoral offense against God.



Immoral— not conforming to accepted standards of morality.


Morality— principles concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behavior;  the code of interpersonal behavior that is considered right or acceptable;  holding or manifesting high principles for proper conduct, a prudent lesson;  root definition— late Middle English: from Latin moralis, from mos, mor- ‘custom’, (plural) mores ‘morals’.



The ‘turn around’ in our lives, with God— comes in all the moments that life is less than desirable;  reformation rarely comes in the times of comfort and ease.  Reformation to our inner man comes through the ‘challenges’ that satan challenges our hearts with.



When we uphold the truth, fight the devil in our own wilderness (the ruined places God is rebuilding, in the tabernacle) —THAT— is where the victories are won, that is where we become overcomers and victorious against the wiles of the devil.  And it is there— that our Lord will meet us to do battle against his foes.


They are coming against him, we realize this, no?



They come to do battle with him— we think they come to do battle with us;  but our King is a warrior King;  he has already defeated his foes, once already, in his own body, soul, mind, and heart in this realm:  his heart, mind, soul, body— is already WHOLE and COMPLETELY VICTORIOUS OVER THE ENEMY.  He now comes to suit up in his armor and fight on behalf of us, in our hearts, on the day to day battles within the minds, souls, hearts, and bodies of HIS CHILDREN.


He is fully victorious— if we align with him, and our hearts are FOR HIM and the TRUTH— we too will win battle after battle within;  and when the Red Sea moments come, the bigger situations we must obey and trust God to come through, in…


We will have already developed that warring mentality, that take no prisoners— slay all opponents to God, resolute stance within— in our relationship with God.



And so— the Red Sea moments we will encounter, the big public battles— we will handily win with the Lord as well:  because the foundation was laid in all the little battles along the way.  And we were strengthened in them, made wiser because of them, gained conquests under our belts (the truth) with the Lord— as the Master honed us into his resolute warrior image— vanquishing the devil wherever he is found (inside or out).



COVENANT WITH HIM;  that is— yoke to his truth and person— and he will stand against your foes, with you, inside—  in the little battles, day to day (that are really the foundationally building battles), as well as the big and public Red Sea moments— when ‘his enemy’ is on the trail of the children of God.



They come against (to challenge) the TRUTH in us, and they come to DIVIDE US AWAY FROM GOD— in shame, condemnation, lies, personal exaltation (thinking/focusing on self too much), perversion (believing lies and immorality— not living as God does, or believing as God does), lack of love toward God— in exalting his truth within us— and operating in it, to step back from God for any reason— causing a rift, a wedge, an emotional issue, a mental breakdown where the lies are not cast down…



ANY WAY THEY CAN DISTRACT US FROM ONE THING:  God, and the truth being exalted within.



Think of the things that seem to come back around to your heart, that the Lord does not look at (like past sins, and incidences), and look at how many times the enemy has brought it back around to you.  Now— do you see the pattern of attack?  They have no new strategies— they use what worked before on us.  So— look at what you get ‘upset’ about— and realize, right then and there…



“THIS IS AN ATTACK PLOT OF THE ENEMY OF MY SOUL, AND OF THE TRUTH OF GOD!!”



Then, become wiser to the wiles of the devil— and stop the assault, by fighting against it;  and we do that— by finding out what the truth (scripture) has to say about this topic— and wielding that sword against the enemy coming at your mind and emotions!  Who has set himself up— to distract you, offend you, captivate your attention— so you will have a wedge now between you, and the object of our heart’s true affection we long for:  God Almighty.



The devil comes to steal ‘HIM’ away from us (our hearts), and cause division in the temple;  because, after all— where a household is divided— it will fall to ruin:  don’t exalt the voice of the enemy, the lies or the distractions that so easily beset us;  resist the devil and he will flee, exalt God— and he will draw nigh:  now— they miss the target, the darts do not impact us.



BREAK THE PATTERNS OF ATTACK;  stop the same result actions we do, when the enemy came last time with that same story and point of accusation and condemnation, or seductive enticement to believe the lie.



We ALL— have to be trained up in the way we should go— in our inner man:  God the parent and Master teacher of us all;  who comes to war against the dragon, in the lives of men.



Think upon the lives of the greats, and who God did this with:  Moses, Joseph, Daniel, the 3 Hebrew boys with Daniel, Joshua and Caleb, Elijah, etc.  They played out the public walk with God— because the private battles were ALREADY having been won (inside their souls, and in alignment with God and the truth).



Sometimes in a battle we trip up, we fall— but remember the definition of resolute— admirably purposeful, determined, and unwavering;  because you have resolved something— and you walk in resolution.  


We are actually just asked to get back on the horse, and go again with God;  he is faithful to finish the good work he is doing in us, and to vanquish our foes— if we do not give up, give in, or quit:  continue to uphold God and the truth within our hearts, and exalt him there!



Be a warrior following after the Man of War himself, our bridegroom and High King:  YahShua Ha Mashiach, Jesus the Christ.  Defend God, defend the throne within— by upholding the truth and the King within— by the choices we are making, to fight the good fight— resist the devil— and overcome him the dragon, by the blood of the Lamb (found in intimacy/covenant with him) and by the word of their (joint testimony of marriage covenant, truth and King upheld within) testimony.



Spar with the enemy, be obedient, fight, resist, remain exalting the King and the truth;  sometimes it make take us longer to DO THAT, and resist, and CAST DOWN SATAN’S RHETORIC/VOICE AND LIES— but if we will eventually do so…


Not only will we win against his schemes, where he throws the same patterned behaviors and rhetoric at us— but we will become wiser to his ways, words, threats, and lies— and we will win, faster and faster, and faster each time:  and in that— we will grow in our strength, wisdom, cunning, versatility, integrity, track record of conquests…


And the ‘arrow/darts of the wicked one— will miss the mark,’ eventually;  the attacks will not lay a blow…


Because we are unoffendable now, not fearful now, not ignorant now— and we are not receiving personally the lies, accusations, or even remotely find him an ‘adversary’ to the truth and the King, within our hearts— anymore:  because we have erected the truth and the King within— and nothing will shake us from upholding both.



BATTLES TAKE US CLOSER TO GOD— 

if we overcome them, and allow them to do so.



Battles and reformation (fighting the enemy and coming into agreement with God and the truth) —is for OUR GOOD;  it is to make us stronger, wiser, more obedient, closer with the Word and Truth, and he is able, in that— to DEFEAT HIS FOE ONCE AGAIN— in our hearts/souls too!



We can NO LONGER (if ever we were to do this, at all) be a people on the ‘defense’ of the enemy only— fielding warfare assaults and onslaught;  we have to TAKE IT TO THE ENEMY ‘offensively’ now;  and that is with the SWORD (the truth).



The shield of faith— is for defensive action against the darts;  we need the shield of faith for when the devil slings things our way;  we use the faith in the truth and person of God— to quench those darts before they make an impact.  If we do not uphold the truth, know the truth, keep the truth, agree with the truth, and walk in the truth— the darts will hit the target (you, me, us).


But if we have the shield of faith in the truth and his person— we will stop those darts from making an impact in our hearts, with his lies, voice, accusations, fixations, perversions and offensive attacks.



But we cannot afford to stop there!



We then must USE OUR SWORDS (the word of God, and our mouths) and DECLARE THE TRUTH, and REBUKE THE DEVIL— and we will win the battles then, as we uphold the truth and the King of— inside our hearts:  and we will have crushed his ‘head’ (his voice and counsels) within the throne room, inside our tent or tabernacles!!!


Do what the Lord did in the wilderness to win against the wiles of the devil:  deny all he offers you!  And then— combat him with the TRUTH (the word)!




THIS IS RESURRECTING THE TABERNACLE OF DAVID 

(the warrior with heart unto God, having God’s heart) 

IN THESE DAYS!




The faster we come into agreement with the truth— the faster our deliverance takes hold:  some people battle against one lie for a lifetime (worthlessness) —when if we would only uphold the TRUTH (we are invaluable to God, he slayed himself to prove it), INSIDE, FOR REAL —we would win the victory against the lies much, much faster:  and vanquish the foe, instead of hosting him in there.



The enemy cannot stop you from inheriting what the Father has left for us— unless we allow him to take it, and steal from us (peace/shalom, love, trust/security in Christ, etc);  he can waylay you from getting it, or receiving it in this world— if we do not fight for what we have to inherit of God:  and that begins by ACTUALLY upholding the truth inside, and exalting the King of with the Truth.



What is bothering you, child of God?  

Because the scripture has something to say about all issues of life, and also comes with the way out of all that, and a truth that makes you free.


Know the TRUTH, uphold the TRUTH, and the TRUTH— will make you free.



A wedge, a wall, confusion— the devil is an opportunist;  he’s setting out to see what you will give him of your inheritance.  Are you giving him your mind and heart?  Fight against him the same way God did— with the truth, and his heart FIXED ON THE FATHER, and to EXALT HIM.




As soon as their time runs out— and they know it’s short, to continue to play in sin in the earth realm— they know they will be judged by the Father of all— their games are over;  and so— they come to us now, to see what they can steal from us, and get us to swim in of their lies and ways;  because it’s the only enjoyment they get.



So, stay resolute in your walk with God, keep your heart for him— in fact, receive his heart of life and love, and walk therein— and you will win whilst you walk in the truth, on the ancient paths with the Father.


No devil can stand against that resolute heart that truly exalts God, the truth, and his righteous holiness!!



The lies will cease to apply to us— when our hearts actually buy into the truth, and will at no cost— sell it, or give it away, to believe the lie:  this is victory, this is overcoming the flood of the mouth of the dragon, that comes for to devour the ‘man child.’  



Those maturing in the Lord, and producing the fruit of that mature union:  the coupling of one heart.
