“The Enemy’s Storm Won’t Stop God’s Promise!”

 I heard the Lord say, “There is a notable shift in the supernatural realm happening right now. The enemy is striving  to sway  many from standing in faith to enter a state of fear. He has escalated his tactics and increased the warfare against My people. His goal is to try to overwhelm them to thwart My promises from coming forth, but My Word will not return to Me void. Speak to the storm and war with your prophecies. Don’t lose hope now. You are on the verge of reaching your NEXT LEVEL, and Satan cannot stop it! Only you can stop it by giving up.”

There is always heightened demonic activity occultic practices, and witchcraft that takes place in this month of October, all associated with Halloween. This year, however, the intensity has escalated, coinciding with the Jewish High Holy Days and the critical lead-up to this pivotal election. As a result, the enemy unleashes a surge of turmoil, deception, and fear.

A demonic storm occurred in the Bible, much like the ones we face today. It happened as Jesus said to His disciples, “Let us pass over to the other side” (Mar. 4:35). While on the boat, as they crossed over out of nowhere, a squall suddenly formed and raged against the ship.

“37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship so that it was now full. 38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?” (Mar. 4:37–38).

As Jesus slept soundly, the disciples fought valiantly against the ferocious storm. Despite their experience as fishermen, the storm was so fierce that it filled them with a deep sense of dread. Out of complete desperation, they woke Jesus and asked Him, “Carest thou not that we perish?” You may be asking the same question today, “Jesus, do you not care that I am sinking? I can’t do this any longer. I am repeatedly being attacked, and I can’t make it.”

Remember, prior to ever getting on the boat, Jesus had given them a Word, “Let us pass over to the other side.” In other words, You will make it to the other side. I sense the Lord confirming that to you right now, “Just as the disciples made it through this storm, you, too, will make it through the raging circumstances you are facing. You are going to the other side!”

“39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?” (Mar. 4:39–40).

The fact that Jesus rebuked the wind reveals to us that this was a storm sent from the enemy. It was intended to cause these men of God to give up their faith and embrace the spirit of fear. It was sent to hinder their destiny and try to stop what God was doing next in their lives. It is the same thing the enemy is trying to do with you, but it won’t work. You have a Word from God––War with your prophecies!

Jesus asked them, “How is it that you have no faith?” In essence, Jesus was asking, What happened to your faith in My promise? I would ask you, Are you battling to keep your faith in what God has promised over your life? Hold on! You are about to experience God catapulting you into the next level of breakthrough. You are coming out on the other side of this storm!

“And they came over unto the other side of the Sea” (Mar. 5:1).

God’s Word was fulfilled just as He promised. He is doing the same for you. This will be your testimony. Prophesy to yourself, “I am crossing over to the other side, and it will be just as God promised.”

When they arrived on the other side, a man possessed by a legion of spirits met them on the shore. Jesus commanded the spirits to come out of the man. The demons begged Jesus not to send them away but to permit them to enter a herd of swine. When they entered the swine, the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea and drowned.

The demonic spirits that possessed the man surged into the herd of pigs, which then violently charged headlong into the waters. These were the very waters of the Sea of Galilee, the same place where Jesus and his disciples faced the storm that tried to kill them and their mission. The demons’ desperate plunge into the waters of the sea suggests their connection to the raging storm that had erupted that day. They were attempting to stop the unfolding of God’s imminent plan.

You have an anointing that will set the captives free. You have faced demonic resistance because what you carry is birthing a move of God. The spirits that possessed that man were troubling the waters to stop God from moving, just as demonic forces have attempted to stop you because hell is well aware of Who is in you and the calling on your life. You are crossing over. This is your time!

The enemy cannot stop what God has proclaimed over your life! God is confirming His Word to you. The Lord says, “There will be glory after the storm. I will receive glory from your miracle. Get ready for FULL RECOVERY! You will recover finances, relationships, health, wasted years, favor, and missed opportunities.”
