The thing most difficult to face is often precisely where the Lord is leading. His plan is not just to confront, His plan is annihilation. His leading aims squarely at details you successfully neglected—until now. Thankfully, the resulting warfare suctions hidden and sinister elements to the surface so those are more easily discerned. Everything hidden shall be revealed. It’s time to declare the end! 

Critical to God-given destiny is the point where we meet ourselves and subsequently lose the struggle for control—of everything and everyone. As the Lord works, in all that He does, His victorious love becomes the wedge between our lives and the thing poised to destroy us. He is the force that separates our excuses and their bedrock of deceptive and habitual preferences. He comes to declare the end!

Agree with Him. Judge yourself. Call hidden attitudes and thoughts up, out, and into the light—name them. Declare a guilty verdict against each one. Insist upon the will of God in every well-hidden crevice of heart and mind. Now say to the Lord, My times are in Your hands. I declare an end to strong-willed self-management, and I declare instead Your Kingdom come and Your will be done!

Declare the end.

Amen.
