Don't Complain, Conquer!

I was riding the public bus the other day to go to a friend’s house when my eye caught a sign that the bus driver had placed in the front of the bus for everyone to view. The sign said, “Today’s Quote: I don’t complain I conquer” I must admit before my eye caught the sign, I was praying or should I say complaining in my spirit. I knew this was correction from Holy Spirit as I felt deep conviction for my error of using my prayer time as a means of complaint instead of intercession and supplication. The word conqueror simply means victor over one’s enemy.

And the Lord says, “You must no longer come to Me complaining while excusing it as prayer. I grow weary of My warriors expressing discontent or unhappiness about a situation when I have declared that they are more than conquerors. For I have declared that, amid all these things you are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved you. (Romans 8:37) I say to you today that you can bear up under all these things My child. Though the weight of it seeks to bend you over and render you as useless you must remember that you have been infused with the strength, grace mercy and all else that you will need to stand with your head held high and walk in victory. Nothing shall be impossible for you, so I say lift up your head, wipe away your tears, strengthen your feeble knees and walk on. Forget the hurt and the pain of your last season. No longer are you to confess out of your mouth the wounds of your last battle for it will be as poison in days ahead and TODAY I have brought you out to bring you into a safe place; a place where your feet shall be firmly planted in your Rock. The enemy is being strategic because he sees your deliverance and he knows that even in the midst of this war that you are taking your promise land; he knows your victory is sure and now because his time is short he is once again seeking to get you to look back. The enemy is once again trying to get you to turn around and look at the Egypt that you have left behind. Be on guard because he will use everything at his disposal to try to offend you, so that you can be hindered and then he will eventually try to get you to lose focus and stumble off of your path. But I say to you My Child, you have strength for all things, yes all things; even that which seems to be unbearable and incomprehensible to you right now. You are more than a conqueror, which means there is more for you beyond the victory over your enemy and in Me you shall obtain it. I have not left you as orphans for you are of they that have an inheritance from the Father. My child there is a joy set before you, so stand in what the enemy has accused you of and know that the righteous shall never be put to shame and vindication shall come by the hand of your God. You are My righteous one and I have declared you have nothing to fear because your Father has gone before you. He hems you in before and behind; He guards you above and below. "See, it is I who created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its work. And it is I who have created the destroyer to work havoc; no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me," declares the LORD. (Isaiah 54:16-17)

So let this be your confession of faith today: “I don’t complain, I conquer; for I am more than a conqueror and I can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens me.

Philippians 4:13 “I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ's sufficiency].”
