FULL OF THE WORD
We are told to “be strong in the Lord.” We’re not told to be
strong in ourselves, but we’re to be strong “in the Lord.” What does
it mean to “be strong in the Lord?” God and His Word are one. To
be strong in the Lord means to be strong in the Word. Colossians
3:16 instructs us to, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you RICHLY in
all wisdom... .” Feed yourself on God’s Word; put it in your heart
and mind – fill yourself with the Word.
What you’re full of is what will move you. The Bible tells us that
Jesus was full of compassion for the multitudes and He healed them.
The compassion He was full of moved Him to heal them.

Don’t Be Swayed
Ephesians 6:10-12
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power
of his might.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand
against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of
this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The previous verse tells us that this is speaking of a
righteous person who is right before God. What words
from God's law could I think of to keep me from slipping
into worry or fear? Here are two verses that God immediately
brought to my mind:
No soldier in active service entangles himself in
the affairs of everyday life, so that he may please
the one who enlisted him as a soldier.
-2 Timothy 2:4
The battle is not yours but God's…stand and see
the salvation of the LORD on your behalf.
-2 Chronicles 20:15, 17

To obey these verses meant that I wouldn't fret about
what I heard, doubt that He was able to work out His
plan, or feel heavy-hearted with the burden. If I truly
trusted Him with ALL my heart, I could leave it all with
Him and walk on in peace.
4. He still wanted me to obey His words so my
steps would not slip! Psalm 37:31 says,
The law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not
slip.

The key is having a set place to sit with God.
It is important to protect the time you spend with God in
prayer. Members of your family should know that when you go
into your prayer closet you are not available!
Perhaps you are familiar with the story of John Wesley’s
mother—she had so many children there was not one place in
her home where she could be alone to pray, but there was a
specific place she went. Her children knew that she was not to
be disturbed while she was in prayer. She would sit down in a
chair in the middle of her bustling home and fling her apron over
her head. Even the youngest child knew that when mother was
sitting in the chair under her apron she must be left alone...or
else!

Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord
Simply planning to pray sometime during the day does not
work. There will always be something to derail your plans and
prevent you from making time to pray. Establishing a specific
time for prayer makes it a priority in your schedule and insures
that it will be a consistent part of your day.
Second, Jesus instructed His followers to go into their inner
room and shut the door. It is essential to have a special place
where you can go each day at your appointed prayer time. It may
be your bathroom, living room, car, office, backyard, garage, or
any other place you can go to be alone with your Father.

EXERCISE YOURSELF IN FAITH AND AUTHORITY
Men, who become spiritual giants and have a great effect on this
earth, are men of faith and authority. Smith Wigglesworth was such
a man. He was an English preacher who had a powerful healing and
miracle ministry during the early 1900s. He said that every day he
exercised himself in faith and authority. Every day he released his
faith through his words and actions, and he exercised his authority
over circumstances and over the enemy every time he opposed him.
Jesus’ victory over the enemy was total and complete, and your
victory over him is total and complete. Renew your mind with these
truths of God’s Word, exercise your faith and authority, and you will
reign over circumstances in this life.
When the enemy sends thoughts against the mind, whether
they’re thoughts of doubt, fear or anything that’s negative, you have
authority over them. Resist wrong thoughts, resist the devil in Jesus’
Name and he will flee. Don’t be mindful of the enemy and what he
tries to do. Rather, be mindful of the Word. Be mindful of your position
of authority, and the victory that is yours in Christ. Don’t allow
your mind to touch on anything except victory.

Still others are counting on the faith and the prayers of others to
pull them through their difficulties, but any help that may come
through the faith and prayers of others will only be temporary. They
will still have to exercise their authority over the enemy for themselves
to maintain any victory they received with the help of someone
else’s prayers and someone else’s faith.
Prayer is important and has its place, but praying or having others
pray for you is no substitute for you taking a bold stand on the
Word and resisting the enemy for yourself.
When the enemy opposes you, resist him in Jesus’ Name and
boldly confess God’s Word.

2 He still wanted me to delight to do His will!
Psalm 40:8 says,
I delight to do Thy will, O my God. Thy Law is
within my heart.
For victory at this moment, I needed to delight in obeying
God, in giving my burden to Him, in letting Him
take control of my thoughts, and in continuing to reach
out to encourage others. In delighting to do His will, it
took my thoughts off of myself and my problems and put
my focus back on serving the Lord.
3 He still wanted me to trust Him completely!
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do
not lean on your own understanding. In all your
ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your
paths straight.
-Proverbs 3:5-6

Thirdly, He knew that it would be a great concern to me,
and yet it had passed through His will. All of these gave me
instant comfort, but then He showed me what He wanted
me to do with what He had just revealed to me. Here are the
four things He poured into my heart that day…while dinner
was waiting…while guests were on their way…while much
still needed to be done…but while my heart was seeking His
peace.

First, He addresses having a specific time to pray...He said
when you pray not if you pray! Prayer was a daily priority to
Jesus and He expected it to be a priority with His followers.
If you want to establish a discipline of prayer you must
schedule a specific time each day that you commit to praying. It
does not matter if you choose to pray at six o’clock in the
morning, during your drive between home and work, or just
before bedtime. You may decide to spend fifteen, twenty or
thirty minutes in prayer—that is up to you. The critical element
is that you schedule a sp

Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord
The Secret to Developing the
Discipline of Prayer
What is the secret to developing the discipline of daily prayer?
It certainly is not based in feelings—there are many days you do
not feel like praying. It cannot depend on circumstances—you
will pray during the storms but when things run smoothly you
will not be motivated to pray.
I have learned that there are two essential elements to
successfully developing the discipline of prayer:
1.You must determine a specific time.
2.You must determine a specific place.
Jesus refers to these two essential elements in Matthew 6:6:
When you pray, go into your inner room, close your door,
and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father
who sees what is done in secret will reward you.

Trusting God in Troubled Times-Mrs. Carol Hopson
Yes, God knew all about this problem, He knew I would
hear it at this specific time, and He knew it would greatly
concern me. However…
1. He still wanted me to cast all my worries on
Him!
Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He will
sustain you.
-Psalm 55:22
The word cast in Psalm 55:22 refers to actually "rolling
off" the heavy weight of the burden onto Jesus. I pictured
having a steamroller on my chest as the burden felt so
heavy. Then I pictured rolling it down off of my chest,
down over my body, all the way down and off my feet,
leaving it at Jesus' feet. Wow! That felt incredibly good!

Fear of the Lord-Pastor David Hoffman
Perseverance Prevents Discouragement
You have seen the importance of persevering to gain victory,
yet there is a second reason Jesus encourages His followers to
persevere in prayer:
Now He was telling them a parable to show that at all
times they ought to pray and not to lose heart, saying, “In
a certain city there was a judge who did not fear God and
did not respect man. There was a widow in that city, and
she kept coming to him, saying, ‘Give me legal protection
from my opponent.’ For a while he was unwilling; but
afterward he said to himself, ‘Even though I do not fear
God nor respect man, yet because this widow bothers me,
I will give her legal protection, otherwise by continually
coming she will wear me out.’” And the Lord said, “Hear
what the unrighteous judge said; now, will not God bring
about justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night,
and will He delay long over them? I tell you that He will
bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the
Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?
[Luke 18:1-8]
Verse one reveals the second reason—to prevent discouragement!
Think about that for a moment...a believer is either praying or
discouraged! If you do not pray you will be defeated. If you do not
pray, God’s power will not be released to operate on your behalf.
Either you develop the discipline of prayer and involve yourself in
a consistent relationship with Jesus Christ or you live in
discouragement!

One example is my prayer for the salvation of my brother,
Tim. He is my only sibling who is not saved. I have been praying
for him for years, but I know I would have become discouraged
and quit if I did not have the habit of daily prayer and a list with
his name on it. Instead, I persevere and know it is only a matter
of time before I shall see the tangible answer God has already
given in response to my request.

A Sound Discipline Mind-N Dufresne
YOU’RE IN AUTHORITY
Some Christians go through certain tests because they didn’t
stand their ground against the devil and exercise their authority over
him. By failing to take a stand against the enemy, the door was
opened to the enemy and the enemy took advantage of them. If the
door was opened to the enemy by failing to exercise authority over
him, then the door can be closed to the enemy by exercising authority
over him.
Some who are facing difficulties are waiting for God to do something
about their problem when God has already authorized them to
take a stand against the devil and put him on the run (Luke 10:19, I
Peter 5:8 & 9). If they don’t exercise their authority over the enemy,
nothing will be done in their behalf, for Jesus gave the believer
authority over the devil.

THE WISDOM OF GOD
“But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us
wisdom...” (I Corinthians 1:30). The wisdom that God gives you is
to reveal to you who you are in Christ, the authority that is yours in
Christ, and that Jesus’ defeat of the enemy is complete. You don’t
have to fight the devil; you don’t have to defeat him for Jesus already
defeated him for you. You are to fight only one fight – the good fight
of faith. Paul wrote, “Fight the good fight of faith… ” (I Timothy
6:12), which means to stand your ground on God’s Word. Remind
the enemy that he’s defeated, and that he has no authority over you.
You don’t have to get victory – Jesus got it for you. Boldly confess
that victory is yours, and stand your ground on the Word, refusing to
be swayed. Every time the enemy opposes you, exercise your authority
over him.

Trusting God in Troubled Times-Mrs. Carol Hopson
I sat down and began asking God for calmness, peace,
and direction from His Word. And as I sat there, God
revealed some very important, wonderful things to me.
First of all, He whispered to me that He knew all about this
situation…it wasn't a surprise to Him. That was so comforting
to me to realize that! God hadn't lost control; He
knew about this situation before the call came to me.
Secondly, He knew I would hear that news just before the
dinner, and therefore it must have been for my good.
We know that God causes all things to work
together for good to those who love God.

Mrs Carol Hopson-Trusting God in Troubled Times
About one hour before they were to arrive, I received a
very upsetting phone call, and there was nothing I could do
about the situation. As I hung up the phone, I asked the
Lord why He would have me receive that very difficult
news right before I was trying to encourage so many people…
and just when I was so busy and had so much still to
do before they arrived. God's timing seemed to be all off in
my opinion. But I knew that was wrong thinking, and it

very upsetting phone call, and there was nothing I could do
about the situation. As I hung up the phone, I asked the
Lord why He would have me receive that very difficult
news right before I was trying to encourage so many people…
and just when I was so busy and had so much still to
do before they arrived. God's timing seemed to be all off in
my opinion. But I knew that was wrong thinking, and it
didn't go along with what I knew from God's Word, so I had
to quickly call on God to help me change my thinking.

Fear of the Lord-Pastor David Hoffman
Discipline Provides Power to Persevere
One of the many benefits of a disciplined prayer life is that
when your flesh grows tired of praying for something and you are
tempted to give up, you press on because prayer has become a
habit. You have developed in yourself the power to persevere!
There are things I continue to pray about simply because they
appear on the list I pray over daily. Without the habit of daily
prayer [and my list to remind me] chances are I would act on my
feelings and give up.

Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord
Jesus was instructing them to follow His example and
develop a daily prayer life with God. He knew His followers
would encounter struggles and wanted them to understand that
perseverance is essential for victory.
Years ago it was common for people to use the phrase
“praying through.” If a believer had a struggle or need, they
would pray through the issue until God’s response was apparent.
Today, it is more common for believers to give up than to pray
through. They pray about something and when the answer is not
immediately evident, they stop praying. Often these people
spend the rest of their lives believing God did not answer their
prayer. That is not what happened...they gave up too soon!

A Sound Discipline Mind-N Dufresne
The enemy will oppose you over this subject of your authority; he
doesn’t want you to gain knowledge of your authority over him and
he doesn’t want you to exercise your authority. He will oppose you to
try to make you think your authority doesn’t work and to try to back
you down from using your authority. Once you successfully stand
your ground against the enemy in one arena, he will still seek to gain
entrance by attacking you in a different arena. But no matter what the
opposition, continue to exercise your authority and stand your ground.
Don’t let his opposition stop you from exercising your authority –
that’s why he comes against you, but we’re not ignorant of this strategy
he uses.
In every encounter with the enemy always remember that he is
defeated, the victory is yours, and you are seated far above all your
enemies.

nN. Dufresne, A Sound Discipline Mind
Not only did God raise up Jesus, but He also raised us up together
with Him, and made us, the Church, to sit together with Christ in
heavenly places; it is a seat of victory and authority. The authority we
exercise is an authority that stems from the throne. We occupy a seat
that is far above all evil powers. The devil and evil spirits have no
authority over the believer, for we have been delivered from the
authority of the enemy and translated into God’s kingdom, and every
believer now has joint seating with Christ far above all our enemies.
As we renew our minds with the truth of these scriptures, we see
that we are no victim to the enemy. Because of what Jesus did for us,
we are made to reign in this life. “For if by one man’s offence
(Adam’s sin) death reigned by one: much more they which receive
abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness SHALL REIGN
IN LIFE by one, Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:17). We are to reign over
circumstances in this life; they are not to reign over us.
You must exercise your authority over the enemy if you are to
reign over circumstances.

Trusting God in Troubled Times-Mrs. Carol Hopson
I was just about ready to have a large, formal Christmas
dinner at my house. I was calling it an "Encouragement
Dinner" because so many people we loved and cared about
were going through very difficult times. Some had financial
hardships, some had hurtful work-related problems, and
still others had devastating family issues. I was thrilled to
be able to invite these dear friends into our home so that we
could share some Scripture passages with them, encourage
them, and pray for them.

Fear of the Lord-Pastor David Hoffman
Persevering in Prayer
Jesus certainly knew the value of consistent prayer, and He
taught His followers to persevere in it.
Then He said to them, “Suppose one of you has a friend,
and goes to him at midnight and says to him, ‘Friend,
lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me
from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; and
from inside he answers and says, ‘Do not bother me; the
door has already been shut and my children and I are in
bed; I cannot get up and give you anything.’ I tell you,
even though he will not get up and give him anything
because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he
will get up and give him as much as he needs. So I say to
you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will
find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. For everyone
who asks, receives; and he who seeks, finds; and to him
who knocks, it will be opened. [Luke 11:5-10]

The Prayer Society has been an immense success at Foothills.
If a member of the church can be involved in only one ministry,
this is the one I ask that they participate in because it is the most
important. Prayer is the beginning of everything in the Kingdom
of God, so if a believer can commit to only one activity it should
be prayer!
Each year Foothills offers senior high school and junior high
school camps that have proven to be very successful, because
hundreds of people are praying for the youth involved in these
ministries. God loves those prayers and responds by pouring out
His Spirit on our kids. It is awesome!

Mrs. Nancy Dufresne-A Sound Discipline Mind
Matthew 16:19 says, “…whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall
be bound IN HEAVEN: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall
be loosed IN HEAVEN.” Does anything need to be bound in heaven,
or does anything need to be loosed in heaven? Not in the heaven where
God is. The Bible speaks of three heavens (II Corinthians 12:2). The
first heaven is the atmospheric heaven that’s around the earth, the second
heaven is where the great solar systems and galaxies lie, and the
third heaven is where God is. So, when we exercise our authority to
bind or loose, the heaven that’s affected is the first heaven, for in the
atmospheric heaven around the earth is where there is demon activity.
In Second Corinthians 4:4, Satan is called the god of this world.
How did he get to be the god of this world? Adam originally had the
authority over the earth, for in Genesis 1:28 God told man to subdue
the earth and to have dominion. But when Adam disobeyed God and
sinned, committing high treason against God, he turned over his
authority upon the earth to the one he obeyed – Satan; that’s how
Satan became the god of this world. But when Jesus defeated Satan,
He restored that authority back to the Church – the Body of Christ.
Satan no longer has any authority over us.

or does anything need to be loosed in heaven? Not in the heaven where
God is. The Bible speaks of three heavens (II Corinthians 12:2). The
first heaven is the atmospheric heaven that’s around the earth, the second
heaven is where the great solar systems and galaxies lie, and the
third heaven is where God is. So, when we exercise our authority to
bind or loose, the heaven that’s affected is the first heaven, for in the
atmospheric heaven around the earth is where there is demon activity.
In Second Corinthians 4:4, Satan is called the god of this world.
How did he get to be the god of this world? Adam originally had the
authority over the earth, for in Genesis 1:28 God told man to subdue
the earth and to have dominion. But when Adam disobeyed God and
sinned, committing high treason against God, he turned over his
authority upon the earth to the one he obeyed – Satan; that’s how
Satan became the god of this world. But when Jesus defeated Satan,
He restored that authority back to the Church – the Body of Christ.
Satan no longer has any authority over us.

Trusting God in Troubled Times-Mrs. Carol Hopson
GOD'S PRECIOUS WORD
The Word of God meets all my needs
And feeds my hungry soul.
It helps me know just how to live
And identifies my role.
Sometimes it seems so difficult
To see what I must do,
But with God's loving grace and help
He'll always see me through.
For all I truly need to know
About this life of mine
Is found within this tear-stained Book,
God's precious Word divine!

Mrs Carol Hopson-Trusting God in Troubled Times
This dear child of God said that the one thing she
prayed for all those years, and the one thing she desired
when she came to America, was to have a whole Bible.
I have never forgotten that woman or her story. Because
of hearing it, I have sought to treasure God's Word more
and spend more time studying, obeying, and memorizing
it…especially as I look at the world around me. What a difference
it has made in my life! "Thy testimonies are the joy
of my heart" (Psalm 119:111). "Establish Thy word to Thy
servant, as that which produces reverence for Thee" (Psalm
119:38). I pray that as you go through this devotional book,
you will develop more reverence and love for your Savior
and His love letter to you! This then will be the key to trusting
in troubled times!

Fear of the Lord-Pastor David Hoffman
The Prayer Society is a group of people who commit to
making prayer a priority. It was established to help develop the
discipline of daily prayer and to invite God into every area of our
church. Prayer Society members make a five-fold commitment:
Attend church regularly: Members who regularly
attend church are more likely to pray for the church and
its ministries. They feel more a part of what God is doing
and have opportunities to see Him answer their prayers.
Pray through special prayer lists: Two lists per month
are sent to members, each containing a dozen or so prayer
requests. Members are to pray for each item on the list at
least once. The Prayer Society was founded to help
believers develop a disciple of prayer—these lists
encourage that discipline.
Pray a minimum of 2 1/2 hours each week: This block
of time was chosen because it is easy to achieve and breaks
down to thirty minutes per day, five days per week. A
member who drives 15 minutes between work and home
can pray during that time twice each day and easily fulfill
the weekly commitment they have made.
Support the church through tithes: The previous
chapter on finances explains how crucial it is to fear the
Lord with our finances. Failure to obey God in this area is
a hindrance to prayer. Members of the Prayer Society
must be in obedience to God with their finances.
Daily striving for holiness and obedience to God:
Willful disobedience in any area of life is a hindrance to
prayer. Members of the Prayer Society who desire to fear
God in their prayer lives must strive to obey Him daily.

Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord
Most of the peaks represent times when storms are raging.
The boss says, “You’re fired!” or the school nurse calls and says
there is a strange lump on your child’s neck. There is a
significant peak in prayer for most believers during storms but
when Jesus calms the storm through His provision, healing,
deliverance, or peace prayer often sinks into a valley of near
nothingness.
This sad pattern was true in my life and in the lives of so many
people I encountered in the church. This pattern prompted one of
the most powerful ministries at Foothills Christian Fellowship—
the Prayer Society.
