Good News-Your Life Can Turn Around |
Good News: YOUR LIFE CAN TURN AROUND!
Are you down? Has your life fallen apart? Are you crying?
I want to bring you a message of encouragement and hope.
There are 7 great truths I want to seed into your spirit.
First, GOD IS FOR YOU!
“If God is for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31
If God is on our side, what difference does it make who is against us? Many things are against us, but what of it?
David sang: “I called on the Lord in distress; the Lord answered me and set me in a broad place. The Lord is on my side;
I will not fear. What can man do to me? The Lord is for me among those who help me; therefore I shall see my desire on
those who hate me.” Psalm118:5-7
He sang in another psalm: “You number my wanderings; put my tears into Your bottle; are they not in Your book?
When I cry to You, then my enemies will turn back; this I know, because God is for me.” Psalm 56:8,9
God your Father says to you today: “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against you
in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness and
vindication are from Me,” says the LORD. [Isaiah 54:17]
God Himself is taking up your cause since you have joined yourself to Him. The battle is the Lord’s, and the victory is
yours. God has committed Himself to fight on your behalf.
You can face life fearlessly because God always wins.
Second, GOD IS GREATER THAN YOUR ENEMIES.
“You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the
world.” 1 John 4:4
The good news of Jesus Christ is so rich! Not only has God cancelled all our sin because of Jesus, but He Himself comes to
live in us!
Therefore I boldly tell you: The Greater One lives in you! Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world! No
matter what your problem is, God is greater. There is no foe that is a match for God.
For Abraham and Sarah, God was greater than their old age, impotence, and barrenness.
For Moses, God was greater than the wrath and armies of Pharaoh.
For the children of Israel, God was greater than the Red Sea.
For Joshua, God was greater than the walls of Jericho.
For David, God was greater than Goliath.
For the three Hebrew boys, God was greater than the burning fiery furnace.
For Daniel, God was greater than the lions.
For the leper, Jesus was greater than his incurable leprosy.
For the man born blind, Jesus was greater than his lifelong blindness.
For the lame man, Jesus was greater than his sin, deformity and helplessness.
For the woman caught in adultery, Jesus was greater than her sin, guilt and shame.
For the woman who had been married five times and was living with a sixth man, Jesus was greater than her failures,
poor judgment, disappointments, and broken heart.
For the demoniac, Jesus was greater than the demons that drove him insane.
For the hungry multitudes, Jesus was greater than their aching lack.
For the disciples, Jesus was greater than the violent storm.
For Lazarus, Jesus was greater than premature death.
FOR YOU, Jesus is greater than the devil and everything he can throw at you.
Nothing you face is able to overcome Jesus, and He is in you.
GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN YOU than all the trouble you have in this life!
I want to give you some added ammunition in your struggle, so your life can turn around.
Third, if you have sinned, you can be forgiven. If you have caused your troubles by making wrong decisions, if you have
“blown it” big time – God will not throw you out with the trash. God wants to forgive you and give you a NEW
BEGINNING. If you need mercy, ask for it. God delights in mercy, and He never despises a repentant heart.
Once you have repented, you need to hear the following:
Fourth, no one has a better standing with God than you do.
First of all, you are a new creature in Christ Jesus. You are not a patched up sinner. You are a righteous child of God.
Over and over in the New Testament, God addresses believers as “saints.” Not one letter in our New Testament says, “To
the sinners at Rome – or wherever.”
God sees you as a saint, as a cleansed one separated from sin, as righteous as Jesus. Jesus Himself is your righteousness.
God does not remember your sin. Why should you? God has no record of your sin. If you have confessed Jesus as your
Lord, then what is on record in heaven is your confession of faith and the blood of Jesus applied to your life!
Don’t let the devil whip you with the memory of your failures. Don’t rehearse what God has forgiven and forgotten.
Fifth, no one has a better right to use the Name of Jesus than you.
All that Jesus is, all He did in dying for you, and all His authority on earth is wrapped up in His Name, and His Name
belongs to you.
You have authority over every demon in the name of Jesus. The name of Jesus belongs to you personally.
Satan was conquered for you personally. JESUS stripped the devil of his authority over you. Satan is not your Lord or
Master – JESUS is.
Satan has no right to rule you with sin, shame, fear, torment, sickness, pain, depression, grief, sorrow, bitterness, despair
or anything else than belongs to him.
Sixth, no one has a better redemption than you.
You have redemption through Jesus’ blood. Every person born into the family of God has the same redemption, the same
rights and privileges. God your heavenly Father does not have any favorite children. He loves every one of us with the
same love.
You have as much a right to God’s blessings as Jesus Himself.
Your redemption is your personal property, as much as your car or clothes.
This redemption is an absolute redemption from the control of the devil.
Seventh, no one can release your faith but you.
Just as no one can swallow your food for you, no one can release your faith but you. The way you release your faith is by
speaking WORDS.
Your life will turn around when your words turn around.
God can do anything, but what God can do for you is determined by the seed you sow and the words you say.
Don’t use your words to describe your circumstances – use your words to change them!
So rise up and say: God is on my side! God is for me! God lives in me! God puts me over! In me is working a power
stronger than every other power. The same Spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead lives in me. Greater is He that lives
in me than he that is in the world. The Greater One gives me victory today. I receive and operate in the wisdom of God! I
am forgiven! I am right with God! In the name of Jesus, I say: my life is turned around – for the glory of God! I release
my faith with the words of my mouth. I will not complain. I will decree! I will declare my redemption as a present reality,
and God will work wonders in my behalf!
God is on your side For Jesus’ blood has been applied. Now every need will be supplied – Nothing good will be denied. I am compelled to stress: God says YES to your success. This truth on your heart I do impress: You’re the one God yearns to bless. Now rise up and boldly confess! Don’t mess or foolishly guess. You must confess the Word in order to possess - Don’t just complain and suffer distress. Don’t bow to fate. Vow to rate. Don’t deify your misery. Rise up: you are royalty. Link your confidence to God’s providence, and You’ll be an achiever because you’re a believer. Never get stuck in the mire, Or quench the Spirit’s fire. Come alive with new desire – Envision a new end and refire! Decree what you require. Do the Word and perspire Until you acquire and inspire others. There’s no clout when you doubt. There’s no relief in unbelief. If you pout, the devil will win the bout. But if you shout, the devil you will rout. You’ll only rust and go bust if you don’t trust. But it’ll light your fuse when you believe the good news. You will climb when you get God’s mind. Don’t sit back or be slack. Rise up - attack your lack. Wise up – tack a new tack. I guarantee: you’ll comeback from every setback! |
