It Is A Struggle. . . But I Must Speak Up!

Faith Is - Knowing that I have been given an assurance that keeps me in a place of steadfastness because Our Father has declared His Word towards me, which never fails, so I continue on this premise knowing that His Word has given me strength to carry on!
Yes, we know it is a struggle at times, we know that it gets impossible to see, but you must faith your way thru. . . I am not talking about religiously rituals, I am speaking to supernatural knowledge, that let us know The Word of God is promising, so I rest in Him knowing that His promises are true!
And when you remain steadfast in The Word you have heard, realizing that although I may be different, but I am better, then you will be able to understand in due season that Jeremiah 1:12 “12 Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.””
Being that we know God knows all - We answer Him when He calls with a confidence that surpasses all understanding because we understand that His Word Never Fails!
We must anchor our minds in the Word of The Lord and less we will be weary in well doing. Less we will allow the fear of man, bring doubt to our walk; we must remember what Isaiah 8:12-13 “12 “Do not say, ‘A conspiracy,’ Concerning all that this people call a conspiracy, Nor be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled. 13 The Lord of hosts, Him you shall hallow; Let Him be your fear, And let Him be your dread.”
Daniel, BELTESHAZZAR (Bĕl·tĕ·shăz´ zȧr) Babylonian name meaning “protect the king’s life.”
A name given to him, but notice that the name never changed who Daniel is. . . Do not let what the world systems call you change you - I Am Different But I Am Better
Daniel 10:1 “1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar. The message was true, but the appointed time was long; and he understood the message, and had understanding of the vision.”
He received The True Word from God, but the time was not ready to receive what God had to tell
Daniel understood that - in all your getting, gain understanding of God’s Timing!
Just because you receive a prophesy from God today, does not mean it must happen today; even though He can, but it is about His Timing!
We become frustrated when we think outside of His timing, not staying in our lane and then we wonder why we have collisions in our thinking. . .
Daniel 10:2-3 “2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three full weeks. 3 I ate no pleasant food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.”
Daniel prostrated himself before God, he removed everything that could hinder him from enduring the timing!
Too often we give in because we allow the things that we desire to entice us to surrender when God want us to stand!
If you just surrender all to God, make room for Him . . . I know many attempted to use the spring forward as an excuse to miss church!
But God woke up in time!
Surrender all to His Will - Less your own!
Daniel 10:5 “5 I lifted my eyes and looked, and behold, a certain man clothed in linen, whose waist was girded with gold of Uphaz!”
When you are down to your weakest, most vulnerable point, do not continue to look down but look up!
Daniel lifted his eyes and looked. . .
Many want to see, but they won’t lift their eyes, nor look!
They see what they want to see!
Daniel was looking for revelation and deliverance, with a pure heart!
Daniel 10:7-8 “7 And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision; but a great terror fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves. 8 Therefore I was left alone when I saw this great vision, and no strength remained in me; for my vigor was turned to frailty in me, and I retained no strength.”
And when you lift yourself up, and look, God will manifest those things He has ordained for you in the earth, not everyone will see it, but you will!
Because you are different, but better, everyone won’t be able to understand you, they will leave you alone because you are no longer of that way!
Do not fret, it’s all good, you just remain poised for the come up!
You may be alone at times, but because you are in His Presence, it does not matter!
You may be weak, but that is okay, as long as you can still hear His Word!
Daniel 10:9 “9 Yet I heard the sound of his words; and while I heard the sound of his words I was in a deep sleep on my face, with my face to the ground.”
Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by The Word of God!
Daniel 10:10 - 13 “10 Suddenly, a hand touched me, which made me tremble on my knees and on the palms of my hands. 11 And he said to me, “O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you.” While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling. 12 Then he said to me, “Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words. 13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.”
Because you are in position, God will speak to you clearly!
Too often we are out of positioned because we want it our way and in our time!
Daniel was on his hands and knees, symbolizing total surrender - you must totally, fully surrender to God!
Stop trying to keep some of you that give you false security, release yourself to God and He will speak to you!
The Angel encouraged Daniel, letting him know that he is loved, and get ready for understanding - But in order to do so, you must stand upright, and remain under The Word that is going forth!
God says Stand Up! He says to remain steady, do not lose faith in me because of the weakness you are experiencing! He says to allow The Holy Spirit to remind you that in your weakness, I Am STRONG!
Be immovable, trust the deliverance and the healing, let your heart receive the miracles I have sent your way; yes, I sent them, do not fear, do not be dismayed, they are for you, but you must keep your eyes on Me, for I am True!
I can imagine how Daniel was feeling, praying, but not hearing, praying but not seeing!
You cannot allow your feelings to keep you from understanding The Word that you have heard!
You must remain in the better, so that you won’t become bitter!
Daniel 10:13 “13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.”
The Angel said to Daniel that He was trying to get there but He had to deal with other factors that were hindering Him from getting to Daniel!
This is why The Word encourages us to not become weary in doing well for in due season, you will reap if you do not give up!
You must faith your way thru it!
Daniel 10:15 - 21 “15 When he had spoken such words to me, I turned my face toward the ground and became speechless. 16 And suddenly, one having the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips; then I opened my mouth and spoke, saying to him who stood before me, “My lord, because of the vision my sorrows have overwhelmed me, and I have retained no strength. 17 For how can this servant of my lord talk with you, my lord? As for me, no strength remains in me now, nor is any breath left in me.” 18 Then again, the one having the likeness of a man touched me and strengthened me. 19 And he said, “O man greatly beloved, fear not! Peace be to you; be strong, yes, be strong!” So when he spoke to me I was strengthened, and said, “Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.” 20 Then he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? And now I must return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I have gone forth, indeed the prince of Greece will come. 21 But I will tell you what is noted in the Scripture of Truth…”
God’s Word is True - You can reside there and be comforted in knowing that you won’t fail - For His Word towards you is true!
(The Stand)
God says that He will manifest things that your natural may not want to believe, but I in you will show you that it is Me! Open your eyes, allow Me to saturate your soul with My Words and Wondrous Works, I am for you so you can rest your mind for I have already gone and made The Way! Get out of your way and remain in MY WAY!
As The Angels ministered to Daniel, these instances are reminiscence of when Jesus was tempted in the wilderness. . .
Paul says to Timothy - 2 Timothy 2:7 - 13 “7 Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things. 8 Remember that Jesus Christ, of the seed of David, was raised from the dead according to my gospel, 9 for which I suffer trouble as an evildoer, even to the point of chains; but the word of God is not chained. 10 Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 This is a faithful saying: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. 12 If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us. 13 If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.”
Why must I faith it thru it when it seems as if the enemy is doing what He wants? Because God said so!
The did what they wanted to Jesus, thinking they were doing a service to God because of their own understanding they were leaning to, instead of allowing The Word of God to change their thinking!
