SANDY WARNER: "WHAT YOU DEEM AS DEFEAT, I CALL ' TRIUMPHANT OVERCOMING"

IMPORTANT Note by Steve Shultz, regarding:
 
"WHAT YOU DEEM AS DEFEAT, I CALL ' TRIUMPHANT OVERCOMING"

For those newer to the ELIJAH LIST, Sander Warner, author of this word, is also the author of the very first book the Elijah List EVER carried.

Sandy's book is entirely FULL of ways in which God speaks to people today. In fact it's called, "101+ Ways God Speaks And How to Hear Him."

Below is a great word that applies to actually MOST readers on the Elijah List. The Lord is telling you what HE sees in you and what you've gone through in your life.

Take special note how it contrasts or seems OPPOSITE of how you see YOURSELF, as you look into the mirror of your life.

I hope you'll get her book, "101+ Ways God Speaks And How to Hear Him."
Sandy Warner's book can be ordered at: http://www.elijahshopper.com/detail.aspx?ID=566.

I also do not feel it is coincidental that her book was the first one in our store. God wanted to communicate many concepts of hearing God speak ---in PLAIN ENGLISH to His Body. At that, Sandy excels.

Be blessed as you read this word and as you read her book.

Merry Christmas,

"WHAT YOU DEEM AS DEFEAT, I CALL 'TRIUMPHANT OVERCOMING'"

Precious one, what a courageous journey you have taken and how proud I AM of you to have trusted Me in sharing My Words. This has been a journey of faith. While you were yet a youth in My Spirit, I called you and gave you many signs of confirmation upon your life. You were so insecure that the mere thought of it made you tremble! How I love challenges! (Smile, dear one!) I had special assignments in mind just for you. You were perfect for the job.

I began by giving you My Words, but I called you to pray them instead of sharing them. You were My intercessor, partnering with Me in matters of importance to My heart. All along the way, I continued to give you confirmations, My signs that you really were hearing Me, and growing along the way. This was a journey of faith, for you had no person to give these Words to, or no one to give you a direct confirmation. I taught you to fly on the wings of faith as you held onto My confirmed Words.

"What a Story of Overcoming!"

I gave you the promise that one day we would be married as one, as happens to others of My fold. I said I would give you My Word as a two-edged weapon to soften the hearts of men, and to pierce the demonic spirits. This weapon would never run dry, for it is dipped in My eternal fountain of blood. This weapon would bow so low as to touch the ground in humility, then grow up as a pure white mantle, softly caressing your shoulders in governmental authority. This weapon would be like tall angelic wings covering you from behind.

You have accepted My Words of promise over your life. And what a story of overcoming! Against all odds, against every demonic current and onslaught, you continue to travel upward and press into Me. Whenever you come to the end of your rope, you lie spent before My feet, even as a salmon who has come home to spawn.

"What You Deem Defeat, I Call Triumphant"

My bride! What you deem as defeat, I call triumphant overcoming. You may feel beat up and dented having stood against all odds, but what you do not know is I that I plant mysteries in many of My children for them to discover. I have planted one inside your own spiritual womb.

I have planted many children in your own particular womb who are following the same path as you, My beloved. Your journey will be multiplied over and over again, as I plant My Words of promise within the insecure ones, and they also will take the courage to trust Me and follow My promises into fulfillment. These are My triumphant ones who so love Me, that they will reach beyond the limits of their own insecurities to go wherever I send them. They will fly on the wings of faith, built through one loving confirmation at a time. When My Words come to pass within their own lives, they will become My signs to a broken and crippled world.

"I will set a sign among them; and those among them who escape I will send to the nations: to Tarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles." (Isaiah 66:19 NKJV)
