This message is inspired by the Reading “Been in the Darkness Too Long” from the Book, Overcoming Darkness.

Letting Go and Letting God provides direction in all the Cares of this World. Keeping it Simple and uncomplicated grants us Peace. We Check Out of Confusion and all sources of Confusion. Opinions and Views are Unclean Spirits that become the foundation for Confusion. But when we put our trust in God, Opinions and Views never become obstacles that disturb our Peace. (1 John 2:15-17, 1 Peter 5:7, I Corinthians 14:33, 2 Timothy 2:7)

As we grow Spiritually, we recognize the Fruits of Evil that are the tools of the Enemy.  His goal is to destroy anything in his path.  He accomplishes his mission through our Unclean Spirits. Our Daily Life is full of Opinions and Views making us targets for Satan to control our thoughts. When we operate with a “thus sayeth the Lord,” Satan flees as he has no way to control our minds. (1 Peter 5:8, I John 4:1, Haggai 1:7, James 4:7)

When we use the words, “I Think,” an opinion or view will always follow. What we think is not factual or Truth.  On our Spiritual Journey, we grow to understand that what we know is based on the Facts and Truth found in God’s Holy Word. Peace comes when we acknowledge Facts and Truth in all of our affairs. (John 8:32, 1 John 1:6, I Kings 17:24)

Being at Peace begins with Order (Decent and in Order). God has set forth an Order for His Anointed to instill in their Hearts (Life Abundantly). It begins when we cast out the Unclean Spirits that have us believing in Opinions and Views. Being at Peace requires a new way of thinking.  We no longer speak as children (Our Tongue). We have prepared our Spirit for the Strong Meat, Our Spirit relies totally on God.  This is the Peace that surpasses all understanding. (Isaiah 40:31, James 1:5, Jeremiah 17:10, I Corinthians 13:11-13, Hebrews 5:14, Philippians 4:6)


Song for the Week:

“Peace” Written and Performed by John Stuckey Jr


WE’VE BEEN IN THE DARKNESS TOO LONG

Cutting corners Selling souls

This has taken a mighty toll

We’ve been in the darkness too long

Fighting for pennies

Conning for control

Is this how to reach a goal

We’ve been in the darkness too long

Backstabbing

Lying and deceit

One day for sure

Our Creator we must meet

We’ve been in the darkness too long

Generation after generation

The enemy’s cure prevails

Having us believe

in nothing but fairy tales

We’ve been in the darkness too long

We’ve got to see the light

And let His spirit in our Life

We’ve been in the darkness too long
