BLESSED BY ABIDING IN GOD

My Dear Precious Child, One of the ways for you to perfect and ripen the fruit of patience that lives inside of you in the person of the Holy Spirit is for you to abide in Me during tribulation and tests from the devil, also during loving and kind chastisement from Me, during undeserved afflictions, during lengthy unanswered prayers and during harassment from family or friends is for you to constantly abide in Me, regardless of trying circumstances and negative situations. The devil is counting on your retreating from keeping your mind on Me and instead your joining with him in impatiently letting your mind become obsessed with doubt and unbelief because of a delay in answered prayers instead of your abiding in Me, which means your living in constant communion with Me. Your abiding in Me can overcome impatience and doubt because both come from hell as well as the stings of chastisement, afflictions and harassment. Where the thoughts of your mind are planted, either in meditations about Me or meditations about a tribulation or unpleasant situation, that determines whether you are going to have peace and patience in your mind or if you are going to have turmoil and unrest in your mind. Doubt and unbelief from hell are constantly ready to occupy your thoughts in relation to situations about which you have no control except through intercessory prayers and your causing your own thoughts to abide in Me as the constant subject matter that captures your thoughts. Your allowing doubt and unbelief to take up space in your thoughts will rob you of the answers to your prayers because the meditations of your mind reveal with whom you are in constant contact, either Me or the devil. In My Written Word it says that Jesus Christ said, "If you abide in Me and My words abide in you, whatever you ask it will be done to you." (John 15:7) There are no ifs, ands or buts in that statement related to whether you will have your prayers answered or not. I said you will have your prayers answered if you live in Me and My words live in you. So your abiding in Me and your allowing My words to abide in you are the prerequisite to your prayers being answered because your thoughts being entirely on Me means you are abiding in Me. Knowing the scriptures related to your need which is the subject of your prayers will double up the power of My Holy Spirit in your life because you are not only abiding in Me but you have searched scriptures or asked Me to provide the scriptures related to My promises which you need to occupy your thoughts. There is power in unity with Me in your thoughts and there is power in My promises which I said are yes and amen, so be it. (II Corinthians 1:20) Your abiding in Me enhances My Holy Spirit's fruit of patience in you and having My promises in your mind relating to the situation causes patience to grow into maturity inside of your human mind by the power of My Holy Spirit. When you have My promise in your mind relating to your prayers, then you can speak My words to any invasion of unbelief that tries to enter into your mind and the unbelief will flee. When you say, "My Heavenly Father says" -- doubt and unbelief demons flee quickly from you. Your Father of Workable Instructions
