ABIDING IN HIS LOVE

 

Abiding in His Love

Beloved, I hope you are well and having a beautiful morning. I may not know exactly what your morning feels or looks like, but I am certain of this—God is right there in the midst of it with you.

Let me share a testimony.

From Darkness to Deliverance

Before becoming the woman, I am today, I was tormented by anxiety, panic attacks, depression, bound by ancestral chains. Every morning, I woke up dreading the day ahead, trapped in a cycle I didn’t even recognize. I had no peace and felt powerless. At night, the enemy would sow seeds of fear, confusion, and uncertainty in my spirit, as if a veil had been placed over me.

I wasn’t aware of the depth of my trauma until God delivered me from it. I carried ancestral burdens that were never mine to carry. But God, in His mercy, saw what the enemy had done to me in the darkness. I was often misunderstood and judged, even by those who were meant to protect me.

God’s Glory in the Pain

Do you know what I love about God? He allowed all of that to happen so that I could know Him the way I know Him now. If people had helped me when I needed it, they would have taken the glory instead of God.

A good friend once said to me:

“Theresa, what God wants to do in your life, He wants no man to take the glory.”

Almost nine years later, those words resonate deeply. No man can take the glory for what God has done in my life. I harbor no resentment; I owe no man anything but the love of God.

Breaking the Chains

By abiding in God and persisting in prayer, my deliverance came. The cycles of repeated patterns, witchcraft, bewitchments, and binding ancestral contracts were broken by the blood of the Lamb. And I overcame by the word of my testimony.

Spiritual battles are fought in the spirit, not in the flesh. When you choose to abide in Jesus Christ, victory is already won. You only have to walk through it with repentance, surrender, and yielding.

Living Your True Identity

Abiding in Him means picking up your cross and following Him. It means living a life of consecration, seeking God in spirit and in truth. You are not defined by what others have spoken over you—you are who God says you are.

It also means rejecting the counterfeit identity the world has given you and embracing your true, 

God-given identity in Christ Jesus.

God didn’t heal me so I could boast about it. He used me as an example of His sovereignty and goodness. He is a merciful God. He wants to heal you too—but you must choose Him back, for He has already chosen you.

I won’t leave you hanging. We’ll go deeper into some of the truths I’ve shared here in upcoming posts.

Thank you for reading and sharing I appreciate you, I love you with the love of God.
