Isaiah 59:19, NKJV

When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD will lift up a standard against him.

When you’re in tough times, the enemy will come in like a flood to convince you that the disease is too big, you’ll never get out of debt, your child will never turn around. He knows if he can keep you defeated in your thoughts, he’ll keep you defeated in your life. The battle is taking place in your mind, but you’re not fighting on your own. Today’s Scripture tells us that the Spirit of the Lord is fighting for you, pushing back forces of darkness, keeping that sickness from taking you out, moving the wrong people out of the way, opening doors that no man can shut.

Every morning when you wake up, you need to power up and get your mind going in God’s direction. The obstacle may be high, but our God is the Most High. The disease may be powerful, but our God is all-powerful. Don’t look at how big the problem is; look at how big your God is. Think power thoughts, think can-do thoughts, and set miracles in motion.

Father, thank You for Your promise to lift up a barrier between me and the forces of darkness. Thank You that I can power up my mind right now with what You say about me in Your Word. I declare that You are greater than any flood the enemy sends my way. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
