The Message For Today (April 30, 2026):
***Listen To Audio Version: He Reminds Us Audio 534
Life gets busy. The day-to-day tasks can get overwhelming, and what is seen can often overwhelm the unseen. The things that we believe that we have not yet seen, the things that we have spoken, the promises of God which are yes and amen, these are the things which are the unseen.
And when we focus more on what we see, the more rooted we are in the day-to-day tasks, the more we carry the weight of the world, it’s easy to forget the things that God has promised us, the love that He has shown us, his faithfulness in and out of season. These are the things that the enemy wants to rob us of. He wants to rob us of the truth of who God is.
Because if you stop believing who God is, you stop pursuing the things of God. You stop trusting Him. You start leaning into your own understanding. Instead of trusting God, instead of acknowledging God, we turn into ourselves. The more rooted we are, the more anchored into the seen that we are, the more logical we are, the less faithful, the less expansive in our faith we tend to be.
Remember that the flesh is weak, but the Spirit is more than willing (Matthew 26:41 KJV). When we are so rooted in the work of our hands and so rooted in only what we can see, how can we begin to believe the promises of God? How can we walk in the truth of who God is? How can we begin to see things move if we’re so rooted in reality that believing what God said, believing what he did, becomes almost impossible? It becomes difficult. It becomes overwhelming and almost fruitless.
Day by day, the enemy begins to pull you, to siphon your strength, moment by moment. Not all at once. But failure after failure, disappointment after disappointment, setback after setback. The enemy will convince you that what God said maybe was a mistake, that what he said wasn’t completely dependable. But the Bible tells us that the word of the Lord is true, that it’s sharper than any two‑edged sword, and that it is everlasting. The Bible tells us that the word of the Lord will stand for all the ages.
But life shows us the harshness of it. Life shows us the difficult things. Life shows us what we see in reality. And so many times, we just accept the reality. We accept that what we see is what we will always see. And on a deep, deep level, we fail to see the need to depend on God’s word. We just begin to drift into our day-to-day tasks. We drift into pursuing the things of this world. We drift into the mindset of those who never believed God.
We just believe that what we see is the inevitable, and we forget the scriptures which tell us that we have the ability to speak and decree and believe and see suddenly. We forget the words that tell us that the power of life and death is in our tongue (Proverbs 18:21 KJV). We forget the scripture in Job 22:28, which says that we can decree a thing and it shall be established unto us. A simple, simple scripture.
We forget the simple miracles that we walked into that God made work, that he made happen. We take for granted the miracles we walk out day by day by day. And all along, the enemy is victorious. He wins without ever showing his hand. He wins without ever seeing the battlefield for what it truly is. The enemy wins just because, slowly but surely, he saps your faith.
But the Lord our God is able.
He’s able to send forth his Spirit to bring back to our remembrance all of what the Lord has shown us. He’s able to send his Holy Spirit to break every chain, to loose every shackle, and to set the captives free. For where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. We have it reminded through the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, which the Lord our God, our Father, will send in the name of Jesus. The Holy Ghost to teach us, the Holy Ghost to bring about the things that we forgot, to remind us of the word of Jesus, to remind us of the things he mentioned and said while he walked the earth.
Yes, that is the power of the Holy Ghost that we have as our Comforter, as our teacher, and as our close, close friend. The Spirit that God has placed in us is capable of shifting everything around. When we trust God, when we lean in, when we go before the Lord in prayer and fasting, it is the Spirit that reminds us who we are in Christ Jesus.
It is his Spirit, the Holy Ghost, which reminds us that we are not alone. That the Lord said that he would never leave us nor forsake us, and that in this very moment, our God is with us, regardless of how many setbacks we’ve experienced. Regardless of how long it has been.
The Lord our God is faithful, and he’s more than able to bring about complete transformation. He’s able to bring about great revival. He’s able to bring back the fire, the power, the passion that you felt when you first came to God, the love that you felt, the joy in our salvation. The Holy Spirit can bring it back.
It is through the Holy Spirit that God helps us to remember. He reminds us of the truth. He reminds us of his word. He sends a helper. He’s a very present help in the time of trouble. That’s what it says in Psalm 46:1. He’s a very present help, meaning the Spirit of the living God, which he’s placed in us, is able to bring about a shaking and a stirring, which, it may not make sense to others, but can be the beginning of the best years of your life. To experience the shaking, to experience the breaking, and to know that God is with you in the midst of it.
That it may seem as if you have lost everything, it may seem as if you’re at the end of yourself, but when we humble ourselves under the greatness of God, that surely the grace and glory of God is with us. When we humble ourselves under the mighty hand of the Lord, the word tells us that we can trust that we will be exalted in due season.
And so, 1 Peter 5:6 in the King James Version reads:
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. - 1 Peter 5:6 KJV
The Lord will remind us. He will bring back to our remembrance. The Holy Spirit is faithful, and the Holy Spirit in us is here to do the work exceedingly, abundantly above all that we can ask or think according to the power at work within us.
This is the time to trust alone, to meditate, to pray, to fast, to know that He is the Lord our God. To meditate day and night that we may have good success according to the word of our God. The word tells us to meditate day and night so that we do remember, so that we create a space, so that we create this place where we can be still and know God.
We can be still, and we can pray. We can be still, and we can have the word of the Lord, and we can write that word on our hearts that we might not sin against God. So the scripture in Joshua 1:8 in the King James Version reads:
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein, for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. - Joshua 1:8 KJV
This is why we need to rest before the Lord. This is why we need to be still and know that he is God. This is why the world wants us moving, constantly producing, always going, always distracted, chasing one notification after another. Because the moment we begin to be still, we remember the word of the Lord. We remember the promises of God. We remember the truth of who God is. We remember the Spirit of the living God. We remember the promises.
We remember, and we begin to walk in that remembrance. We begin to walk in the power of the Lord our God. We begin to walk in the revived Spirit. We begin to overcome every plan of the enemy once we are still and once we are in the presence of the living God. Full of truth, full of power, and full of love. That’s what God does. He reminds us day in and day out. He’s reminding us now.
