One of the greatest deterrants to a believer is the assault against their faith, through the demonic influence and groupings of doubt, unbelief, wavering, and double-mindedness. It is your adversary' s sole duty to disrupt and destroy,and he's quite diligent and astute at the accomplishing of the same, but we were blessed, and equipped with a measure of the mind of Christ, through salvation, so that when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord raises p a standard against him, and the Word should come alive in the heat of the battle. The standard of greatest power is the Word,and ir is absolutely neccesarily that we know it like we know our own shadow and reflection so that we are quaified and equipped to put him in remembrance of His precious promises. In order to maintain stability and an uninterrupted momentum, as we advance our kingdom assignment, we have to first know what the scriptures say, and "bind them upon our hearts", or we;re not equipped to remind anybody of anything, and we then become easy marks for false doctrine, the doctrine of demons,and errant teaching. In those times when the manifestation of those long ago prophecies, Words, and promises tarry, and are delayed by the prince of Persia, in second heaven, only the seasoned mature believer is able to maintain a consistent posture of steadfast hope, assurance,faith, and,a yet praise, and even amongst these ranks, many still faint. What the enemy desires to accomplish within the framework od your mind, is a "hath God said?" kind of conversation to distract you, seduce you into curing God, and to offend Him by disobedience or rebellion. His strategy is to "remind" you of all the things God said He would do, that haven't come to pass, but he also tries to repress/suppress/ in your mind the memories of what God HAS done! The enemy of the cross will magnify every unfulfilled blessing so greatly above the manifest promises you're living out of divien health, a fairly stable mind, family, freedomto worship whenever wherever, however, and in whatever you desire, without the risk of being executed, like some people do in other parts of the world. When we genuinely grasp the fact that the promises of God are "yea", and "amen", and forever settled in heaven, the pharmaceutical companies would be out of business, because there'd be no more neurotic/psychotic saints to dispence "Prozac", or "Valiums" to. A study of God, and gaining revelation of Jesus, the Christ through spending time in the Word, praying for the eyes of understanding, and one's spiritual eyes to be opened,and meditating upon them day and night will usher you into the "blessed assurance, and prisoner of hope zone", that seems to elude most saints because the processs of being perfected in that area is grueling and not for whiners, murmurers cowards, people who can't take an occasional licking, or the faint of heart! Satan is determined to blind you to the established truth and memory that "He's (God) not slack like some men consider slackness, but He is longsuffering towards us, desiring that none should perish, and all should come unto repentance!' He wants to overpower the awesome wonder of the truth that God is not a man that He should lie, nor the son on man that He should repent! What He said, He's going to do it,and what He's promised, He's going to make it good!" He will go to great lengths to convince you that the Lord is not that God, in Whom there's no variableness, nor shadow of turning, and that He obviously, does NOT delight in the prosperity of His servants

While He's riding your shoulder and holding your hearing hostage, He will twist, pervert, omit, manipulate, and maneuver the truth until it's easy for you to no longer lift your hands in total praise, or to commune with God in personal fellowship,or share the Good News of salvation through Him, with anyone because you've beeen convinced by the "father of lies", and the "lying wonder", himself that God has no integrity, He's not "the Truth", and He'll never bring you out of your dilemma. The knowledge you need to be equipped with is that God's promises are ireversible, and He is the epitome of integrity, honesty, and truth. God has a reputation of "holiness', in His sovereignty, that is the total essence of Who and What He is, for He said in His Word, "Be ye Holy, as I AM HOLY!" When He makes a promise or decree over our lives, he has to do it for His Name's sake. That promise of healing and restoration can not be reversed, and you have to seek God's face to comprehend the way He chooses to manifest it, because His ways are not our ways, nor His thougths our thoughts! If He said He woiuld save your unbelieving mate, then He's honor bound to do it, even if its a death bed experience..When God makes a vow to, or concerning us,it is set in stone,and it is irrevokable. Where men get into trouble while trying to dissect and conquer God's methodology and reasoning, is that they measure, perceive,and interpret time, places, people, and situations, within the realm and limitations of their intellectual reasoning. Time, to God, does not operate under the same principles and elements, that it does for mere mortals, so when a thing tarries in it's coming to pass, consider the time factor, and the ways of God, but know that whatever He promised cannot be reversed. His own predestined purpose couldn't be reversed, because He said "It is for this cause, that i came into the world, to undo the works othe enemy." When He established the sea, the ocean, and other bodies of water and declared "Hitherto shall ye come and no further", it couldnt be reversed. When He created man in His image and gave him dominion over the whole earth, it could not be reversed, even though it shifted, and went in another direction, but His original purpose forthe world were still recovered. When a man is falsely arrested amd serves time, no matter how ufortunate it may be, that time and sentenc cannot be reversed. Every promise and vow ?God has sovereignly made for your life has a due season and a set time, if we have long patience for it,mand when we begin to grow weary and our faith trembles, that's the time to point to the heavens and say "God you said", and it can't be reversed.
