THROUGH THE STORM

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

I have been writing this message since January 2024.  The Holy Spirit had not granted me the inspiration or experience to write this message until Today. The Voice of the Holy Spirit reminded me that the Readings and Songs from the Book, Overcoming Darkness are my personal experiences traveling The Road Less Traveled. The Spirit told me that if the Readings Are True, then use them a lamp unto my feet.  I must experience trials no different than the Prophets and Kings of old experienced in the Bible. The Storms of Life prepared me to walk as a Spiritual Being and to Walk in The Light (I am Strong but I am Weak).  I am of this World but not in this World. (Acts 1:4-8, John 14:25-26, Romans 5:3-5, Isaiah 41:10, Galatians 5:16, Ephesians 6:12)

In the past twelve months the enemy has attempted to attack my Household, My Business and Finances.  Spiritual Wickedness in High Places has attempted to devour my Spirit (The Devil is a Lie). While my experiences are not as severe as Job, I can admire how he handled the challenges to his Faith. 

Job lost his sheep, camels, oxen and donkeys. Job lost all of his children.  He lost all of his worldly possessions. Even with his losses, Job continued to Worship God. God favored him with twice as much as he had before. I now understand, “Lord don’t move my mountain, just give me the strength to climb” (Unyielding Faith). I have an unrelenting courage to say to the enemy, “Get Behind Me”. (John 16:33, Job 1:11, Job 42: 10-17, Luke 6:35)

We have many examples of Faith while faced with adversities throughout the Bible.  Abraham was prepared to sacrifice his son. Daniel had no fear of the Lion’s Den. The Three Hebrews Boys had no fear of the Fiery Furnace. These Examples give me Inspiration that God is still on the Throne. (Genesis 22:2, Daniel 3: 23, Daniel 6:22)

Through the Storms in Life, I have seen the enemy attempt to bring forth untoward experiences. The enemy has tried to tempt me into anger (The Anger Spirit). Being born in Sin, I learned to shed the Old Man and Love my enemies. 

Untoward experiences have taught me to rely on Faith. I am Transformed daily by renewing my mind (Renewing Our Minds) and focusing on the things that are Pure and Lovely continues to bring me Peace. (Ephesians 4:22-24, Philippians 4:8)

Jesus spoke all obstacles out of his way. God has granted You and I the Authority to Speak things into existence.  Being Faithful in a few things Grants Us, His Believers, the opportunity to become rulers over many things. I have the faith that can move mountains. I am free. (Matthew 16:22, 2 Timothy 1: 7-8 Romans 4:17, Matthew 25:23, John 8:36)

Through our Storms in life, our reliance on Faith is important. I have learned that Faith is the foundation for working out my Salvation. (Hebrews 11:1, Philippians 2:12)


Song for the Week: 

God is Still on the Throne Written and performed by John Stuckey Jr


We’ve Been in The Darkness Too Long

Cutting Corners

Selling Souls

This way of life 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

Back Stabbing

Lying & 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

Today we see the Light

And see God’s Spirit shine bright

His Will is always for Right

We’ve Been In the Darkness Too Long
