Today’s Reading:
Genesis 3
Hebrews 12
James 4
“Yahweh-God then said to the snake, “Because you have done this, you are cursed above every wild animal, condemned above every creature of the field! You will slither on your belly and eat dust all the days of your life!”
Genesis 3:14 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
Truth travels at the speed of sound, but the enemy wants to keep it hidden under the dirt. He piles dirt onto the truth to mar it and reduce its effectiveness — to slow its ability to travel and reach ears in need of the word, to reach names in need of exoneration, to reach just judges and law clerks of clarity, honor and integrity. These tactics have worked. Marring the truth has worked, but a great upheaval has come, and the dirt that has been a weapon and a tool will become the enemy’s own worst nightmare. Those who have used dirt will be made to choke on the very dirt they used to torment others. So much dirt that they have proffered will be stuffed down their own throats and made to fill their own mouths so that they can speak no longer. Their snakelike mouths have been filled with venom, but now they will be silenced by the very dirt they used to destroy the lives and character of others.
“As for us, we have all of these great witnesses who encircle us like clouds. So we must let go of every wound that has pierced us and the sin we so easily fall into. Then we will be able to run life’s marathon race with passion and determination, for the path has been already marked out before us. We look away from the natural realm and we focus our attention and expectation onto Jesus who birthed faith within us and who leads us forward into faith’s perfection. His example is this: Because his heart was focused on the joy of knowing that you would be his, he endured the agony of the cross and conquered its humiliation, and now sits exalted at the right hand of the throne of God!”
Hebrews 12:1-2 TPT
A new sound is rising from the ground. A new sound is rising from the place of humility, from the place of respect, worship and honor for the One True King. And as that new sound rises, a new reality will rise with it. A new structure of faith will rise with it, and it will tower over the mountains. It will tower over the failures, the defeats and the long-fought battles that seem lost. It will tower over all of that in triumph and in grace and power. And the piercing sound that goes forth from this new structure, this new place of gargantuan faith will remove all of the markings that had wrongfully become part of people’s identities — all of the defeats that had scarred and crippled many honest and chosen ones. The heralding of a new sound of faith will be like a great pressure washer or a laser that removes the markings never sought but thrust upon those who have been overrun by the enemy and his cronies. The light has come to bring your new day, to remove the stain from your name, your character and your accounts.
“So then, surrender to God. Stand up to the devil and resist him and he will flee in agony. Move your heart closer and closer to God, and he will come even closer to you. But make sure you cleanse your life, you sinners, and keep your heart pure and stop doubting. Feel the pain of your sin, be sorrowful and weep! Let your joking around be turned into mourning and your joy into deep humiliation. Be willing to be made low before the Lord and he will exalt you!”
James (Jacob) 4:7-10 TPT
Let the new song and the new sound arise from within you. As you get low, as you prostrate yourself in humility, the new sound of gargantuan faith rising will come forth. The new sound that stuffs the dirt from your enemies down their own throats will come. The new sound that removes all of the lies and the scars that the enemy meant for your defeat will come. Get low. Humble yourself before the mighty hand of God, and watch Him move on your behalf in an incredible way that brings an about face that changes reality and life as you know it. Get low, and you will see your new day. The frequency of that new piercing sound will recreate the world as you know it.
How to Respond
- Pray, Abba Father thank You for seeing all that the enemy has put me through. Thank You for seeing the lies, the dirt, the accusations and the pummeling that I have taken. Thank You that You have provided a way for faith to arise, for a new sound to arise and for a great turnaround to come to my life. I will humble myself Lord, so You can move mightily on my behalf.
- Declare, Does the Scripture mean nothing to you that says, “The Spirit that God breathed into our hearts is a jealous Lover who intensely desires to have more and more of us”? But he continues to pour out more and more grace upon us. For it says, “God resists you when you are proud but continually pours out grace when you are humble.”
James (Jacob) 4:5-6 TPT - Decree, I will humble myself to the lowest place, so the Lord can judge my adversaries, so the Lord can remove the stains from my life and raise up a gargantuan structure of faith that towers over every mountain and obstacle that I see. As I humble myself before the Lord, He will release a sound and a frequency that transforms everything. He will bring forth the new day.
