Lift Up Your Head

Today's Scripture

"Lift up your heads…that the King of glory may come in" (Psalm 24:7, AMP).


Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

Are you ready for God to come in and fight your battles? Then it’s time to lift up your head. It’s time to get a vision of yourself rising higher. See, your life is going to follow your vision. You can’t stay focused on defeat and expect to move forward in victory. But when you lift your head, when you focus on the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, your focus is in the right place. You are setting yourself up to be a candidate of God’s blessing and favor.

How do you lift your head? By thinking higher thoughts. By speaking God’s Word. By seeing yourself the way God sees you. That means if you’re sick, you’ve got to start seeing yourself well. If you’re struggling in your finances, start seeing yourself with more than enough. You may have major obstacles, but see yourself rising above them. If you will lift up your head, then the Lord mighty in battle will come in. And when God shows up, every adversity will be turned to victory! Every battlefield will be turned to a blessing field, and you will live the abundant life He promised to you!



A Prayer for Today

Father in heaven, I choose to lift my head, to lift my thoughts, words, and actions to be in agreement with You. Thank You for fighting my battles and for leading me into victory. I love You and bless Your holy name. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
"O God, you are my God. Earnestly I seek you;my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is BETTER than life,my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name, I will lift up my hands." Psalms 63

You are so very welcome!!! God is #1 in my life I don't know where I would be without him :D He has opened my eyes and my heart to the truth and I MUST share the "good news" with everyone! There is SO MUCH happiness just waiting for us, if we only surrender to HIS will! When I began to realize that, my anxiety subsided and things are looking up for me and my family.
God bless you too, my friend
Take care

You know, when I first started having panic attacks and axniexty, i could have never imagined it as a blessing, I was told that it would be life changing, little did i know then,that this would bring me to reconcile with the lord, I was living a life so out of line with gods will, I do believe that this was a blessing because, now I am filled with so much joy, overflowing with the love of god.. I still have some bad days, but I ask myself, is this bigger than god? Put your faith in him, and know that ur mind is a battle field, God loves me he makes me strong and he enables me to win..
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, love and of a sound mind.. Timothy 1:7
