5 OF 7 DECISIONS THAT WILL DECIDE YOUR SUCCESS √ Your Decision to Look For Divine Rewards In Every Battle Never enter a battle that does not have a reward. Never allow your enemy to choose your weapons. Never allow an enemy to choose the place of battle, or the timing of battle. But every person here will have adversity. Your reaction to an enemy determines his success. Your reaction to an enemy determines his success. Never advertise the success of an adversary. Never panic. I remember the first time that newspapers and the media came after my life. I was just stunned. For 4 years they sat in all my services and teachings and travelled and went places, and they really came out strong against my life. I remember (… ) getting out of the plane, and going into the newspapers, and there I was on the front page of the newspapers. The first article was 15,700 words, which is three times the size of a leading article. And they were really, really coming hard after me. And I told the Lord. It was a multi-billion dollar company. I said, “Father, this is a multi-billion dollar corporation coming after me; trying to destroy my credibility.” And He says, “The size of your enemy ought to tell you how I feel about you.” The size of your enemy reveals the size of your rewards. Hell reacts to your future. And when you have an organized enemy against you, you now have a picture of the future. And if your enemy believes in your potential, you should believe in your potential. If my enemies believe I can obtain my goals, surely I can believe I can obtain my goals. Halleluyah! If there’s a person on your job that’s trying to falsely accuse you, to stain your credibility, to stain your believability, there are three things that I encourage people that go through great warfare to do: 1. Identify an intercessor in your life; a person you can trust - because two are better than one. 2. Silence cannot be misquoted. Don’t feel like you have to answer your enemy. Don’t feel like you’ve got to answer an adversary. 3. Stay thankful, for the energy of God is in you. Stay thankful. Stay worshipful. Worship is a magnet and it corrects your focus. Sing. Come into His presence singing. Wake up every day prophesying to your day. The first thing I do every morning, I stay at the edge of my bed and prophesy into my day and tell it how it’s going to do – because my day is a servant. Your day is a servant to you. It has to produce what you say it’s going to produce. (…) I put a theme on every day of my life. I wake up that day, some days I say, “This’ going to be a day of great compassion. I’m going to feel great caring, great caring, great love is going to flow through me like water; the compassion of God.” I’m going to find it is like rivers of love are flowing around me. The next day I wake up and I may call it “A day of ideas. This is my idea day. God is going to give me three ideas I’ve never had, today. This is my idea day. This is a day for ideas.” I may wake up the next day and say, “This is the day for incredible energy. I’m going to have energy to do the things I never thought I could do.” I name what that day would produce in my life. Remember that God runs the whole universe with His mouth, and He said, “The mouth of the upright shall deliver them.” So, I don’t run all around the world looking for a deliverer. My mouth is my deliverer. When is the last time you prophesied to your day? “O, I don’t know what this day is going to bring.” Well, tell it what to bring. I laugh at people who say, “I don’t know what the future holds.” Then, plan it! Plan what you want to experience. Plan what you want to experience. Plan what you want to experience. You may say, “Today is going to be a day of great favor. There is going to be people that just love me that have never loved me before.” You are going to have battles. And I can’t describe to you the pain of family battles; family misunderstandings. But remember that, if it is a divine battle, it has a divine reward. Never enter a battle that doesn’t have a reward. Don’t fight Goliath if there is not some blessing attached to it. The first thing David did, he said, “What’s going to happen to guy that kills Goliath?” They said, “He gets to marry the king’s daughter, gets a pile of money, and doesn’t have to pay taxes the rest of his life.” He said, “I will be right back!” And he got 5 stones. You must keep the rewards infront of you. In the Book of the Revelation, the only people who qualify for rewards are overcomers. Until you have an adversary, God is not authorized to promote you.
