I was not planning to write tonight because I posted my weekly entry yesterday but this message is speaking to me everywhere I go lately. Thank you for allowing me to share it with you.
My I AM ALIVE movement was born two years ago when I began to face my fears and put on the full armor of God, STANDING against the devil’s schemes that held me hostage from around age 10 to 41. During this process I’ve been becoming the woman God intended me to be. I was lost and had no purpose for so many years but my purpose now is to bring inspiration, encouragement, light and hope to others who have drifted far from God.
My friend told me today that this is a “mind renewal” ministry and that everyone needs that. And I received three messages from sweet readers/friends telling me my words are blessings to them. Thank you all so much. YOU encourage me!
We ALL need encouragement. And as Christians, it is SO important to make the CONSCIOUS decision EVERY DAY to put on the full armor of God and STAND firmly in faith. This was the message at church today and it is the message in everything I’ve been reading lately. I flipped on the TV this afternoon and heard the same message! God is EVERYWHERE telling us to stand firm in faith against evil.
I will leave you with a few key verses and a song that speaks TRUTH. Turn up the volume and let it soak in!

“I’m no longer a slave to fear I am a child of God”

Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Ephesians 6:10-20 NIV
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.
