Why Fight!

"Why we’re in a fight and why we should fight?" Wow! As I was driving down the road, I had a revelation while listening to "Fighting For Me" by Dr. Tony Evans’ son, gospel recording artist, songwriter, Anthony Evans, taken from his debut album "Home", which inspired me to tweet and blog encouragement for someone that is in a Fight Today! 

The lyrics from the song, "The size of the fight is measured by the prize it will be won", immediately quickened my spirit; for I had recently heard from a dear saint that I had not communicated with in a very long time. She explained: "she didn't know why she was in such a fight and why the struggle was so hard. When it was not supposed to be."

Thus, these words are to encourage her, as well as you (us), if you find yourself in a Fight Today and just can't seem to explain what and why you're going through.

First my friend, we must understand our life is worth fighting for. But this fight is for us and not against us.

In this fight, Jesus is fighting our battle, but we are experiencing the blows He's taken for us. We are feeling the aftershocks of every blow Christ has taken for us in the fight for our life. The life He purchased for us that is precious enough for Him to protect. The devil will not win! Although, at times we feel otherwise.

Second, we must realize and know we have the victory! It does not matter how difficult the fight, we will experience what Jesus did in order to see what He has gone through to keep us for Himself. If Christ can be touched by what we feel (our affirmatives), we are also connected to what He experienced (Hebrews 4:15; Philippians 3:10). 

Lastly, we must continually remember, we are one with Christ, we are in Him and He is in us (John 15:4), heirs and joint-heirs together (Romans 8:16-17); therefore do not be surprised when we (you) suffer, struggle or face trials and temptations just as he (James 1-3).

Saints of God, how can we testify that God will bring us (out) through something, if we've never experienced what it's like to be in a fight and win! It's time our faith sustains our testimony. If it does not work for us, how can we tell and convince others it will work for them?

It is time to STOP murmuring and complaining (spectating) about how difficult it is and be grateful and thankful (cheer on) the ONE who's fighting for us (you)! Our praise strengthens and reaffirms what HE has overcome and secured on our behalf. 


God sent Christ to fight and defeat your bully…the devil! Right now, we may be feeling the bullies’ blows during the Fight (his huffing, puffing, and threats) because your mind is focused on the wrong thing...the process and not the outcome." 

"Think of the size of the prize in comparison to the fight you're in." For, at this very moment the fight may be a big, rough and tough battle, but the outcome is a glorious, "one-of-a-kind prize!"

When you (we) praise, instead of spectate, the fight will be over in a matter of moments! During praise we move from the "victims table to the victors circle!" Hallelujah! If you can believe it! It won't take The Lord long to do what He's already done for you! It is so, so act like you know it!

Be encouraged today my friend! Decree and declare right now with me, "my fight is already won and I'm cheering on my CHAMPION! I declare right now, I am victorious! I am coming out of this fight better, faster and smarter then when I went in! My CHAMPION has already won and I am receiving the prize!"

In Jesus mighty name, Amen!

Shalom!

The Journey: From The Pit, To Palace, To Prison

Behind The Scene of Documentary Film

Here We Are To Worship: In Spirit And In Truth

INTRODUCTION



By Minister Valerie Allen


How often have we’ve heard the cliche, “you see my glory, But you don’t know my story?” Well…yes, indeed, that cliche is more than fitting to mine.

It comes to no surprise to some,  however to others, maybe a bit surprising, as to what I decided to reveal after producing the Documentary Film, Here We Are To Worship: In Spirit And In Truth.

The truth, and nothing else but; where I'll take you a on a personal Blog journey, like no other; from what I consider, "the pit, palace, prison".

No doubt, this is a familiar tale, in comparison to the life and time of Joseph (Yosef); a biblical example of what I experienced, before, during and after production of the Documentary Film, Here We Are To Worship: In Spirit And In Truth.

Words cannot begin to describe the sheer hardship I've endured over the course of one year, and yet, still. 

Enough said, sit back and let "The Journey" begin. (To Be Continued).

-Minister Valerie Allen is the inspired Author of I AM INSPIRED The Beginning and Executive Producer of Documentary Film, Here We Are To Worship: In Spirit And In Truth.



e-Book, I AM INSPIRED The Beginning on sale for .99 cents at, Amazon.com and Full Featured Documentary Film on sale for $5.00 per DVD copy at, Here We Are To Worship Ministries.

Waiting!

APOSTLE BA INGRAM ON "WAITING":

No one likes to wait, least of All me. Not in line, at banks, restaurants, post offices, for service; stuck in rush hour traffic, or put on hold by a computer.

"Waiting time" seems to be a waste of time." This is why "waiting" on God is often difficult for many believers. It also is why many quote the saying, which is not Biblical: "God helps those who help themselves." Besides not being scriptural, it is not wise counseling on waiting, but the statement actually speaks to a lack of Faith and Patience.

I am not stating God does not want you and me to accomplish some things. HE does at times, in fact, more so as our faith demands than other times. When it is "waiting time" and we proceed to help ourselves, we are stating that God needs us to take charge to get the things done. Newsflash…He does not! But one thing is for sure: "We need to trust God, be willing to do His will, and in His timing and not our own."

This may be difficult because most often, than not, it means "waiting"- something we do not like to do. Hebrews 10:36 says, "For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise" (KJVA). Alas, what we really need is patience, which requires faith (the hope, trust and confidence) to wait!

Note: "The right action, at the right time, equals the right result." That's what patience produces. "Waiting" on God seems tough. "I ain't gonna lie"; it is and I've had my share of impatience and anxiousness! But God's timing is always best for us as I have experienced, and "so well worth the wait!"

Hence, "waiting time" should not be a waste of time – "Waiting Time" is indeed "Worth The Time!"- Therefore my friend, "Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him" (Psalm 37:7).

Selah!

Get And Go Supernatural

If you've waited until 2014 to "Get And Go Supernatural", then you're already behind schedule! 

Now you’re playing catch up...I'm not waiting! Just to warn those playing catch up, when the prophets begin to prophecy, "we didn't just get this..." 

We got and gone supernatural long before 2014. What we began to say has already begun, because our flow began during our processing; to get and go supernatural, prior to you knowing who we were! 

The time we spent with The Father, being made for our end time purpose, prepared us to get and go supernatural; wherefore, we can now assist you in this season. 

It's going to take a baptism of fire and water for many people in this season to get and go supernatural, for the mind and flesh will no longer subdue it! Fleshly believers, carnal preachers and whore mongering saints will not have the power to get and go supernatural; it's a work of the Spirit! 

This will not be a season of understanding with the natural mind, human intellect, or emotional preaching, but a time to get and go supernatural.



Our Declaration


Here We Are To Worship Ministries does not walk in the tradition of men, nor give hear to the counsel of the ungodly, or stand in the way of sinners, or sit in the seat of the scornful, But, rather walk in the paths of righteousness for His name sake; delighting, meditating in the way of the Lord always,

YAHWEH shall then, continue to make our way prosperous, and we shall then have good (great) success.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow us through each and every season as we dwell in the house of the Lord, in prayer, praise, worship and servant hood, "in spirit and in truth", in YESHUA'S name.
