Beloved, I see you poised ready like a runner waiting to get in the starting blocks. And yet I know how acutely aware of the final period of waiting you are. Do not give space to lies of confusion over the timing, you have not misread the signs. This is not an unholy delay but I am using this pause for vital work that will strengthen you for the advance.
I have been increasing wisdom within you but now I am preparing your arms to wield that weapon well. You have been, and continue, to be transformed by the renewing of your mind. My thoughts in your mind are a powerful weapon.
As you speak and release my thoughts, you will be taking authority over the atmosphere; you will be pushing back what the enemy is releasing over your family, your church, your city and your nation. I am training you to grow into a wider sphere of influence as you step further into the authority I give you.
I am purging your mind of the impurities. As you speak freedom, you release others from their restraints, their powerlessness and disbelief, into active faith, into knowing identity and into their place of warfare.
As you speak love you break fear, rejection and independence over others. As you speak healing you break infirmities, depression and release health and wholeness. And as you learn to wield this weapon of wisdom, your reach of impact will grow from individuals to nations.
Application:
Read James 3:17-18. Sit in these words with Holy Spirit asking him to show you how these qualities were demonstrated by Jesus Christ. Allow Holy Spirit to transform your thinking as you gaze on Jesus.
17 But the wisdom from above is first pure [morally and spiritually undefiled], then peace-loving [courteous, considerate], gentle, reasonable [and willing to listen], full of compassion and good fruits. It is unwavering, without [self-righteous] hypocrisy [and self-serving guile].
18 And the seed whose fruit is righteousness (spiritual maturity) is sown in peace by those who make peace [by actively encouraging goodwill between individuals].
James 3:17-18 (AMP)
And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into His image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 3:18 (AMP)
Exaltation of the Afflicted
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me,
Because the LORD has anointed and commissioned me
To bring good news to the humble and afflicted;
He has sent me to bind up [the wounds of] the brokenhearted,
To proclaim release [from confinement and condemnation] to the [physical and spiritual] captives
And freedom to prisoners,Isaiah 61:1 (AMP)
