Pressure
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended:
but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which
are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which
are before,
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling
of God in Christ Jesus.
(Philippians 3:13-14)

Greetings to you in the name of His Majesty!
Beloved, it is with great joy I am sharing what is on my heart today with you! His Majesty has awesome, bountiful, blessings in store for you and I want you to possess everything He has for you. Amen!
No doubt you have some old memories and some old circumstances in the your past that you would like to forget. I believe it is His Majesty's perfect will that we do forget the things in our past that were not positive experiences for us whether they were caused by a bad decision we made or whether they were inflicted upon us by a bad decision or action caused by someone else. Beloved, the blood of Jesus is more than powerful enough to cover our past when we are willing to let go of it and ask Jesus to cover it with His blood. We simply need to forgive ourselves and others, let the past go, allow the washing of the Word help us to forget and move on. I believe it is when we make the decision to forgive, forget and move on we begin to possess the new level of blessings His Majesty has for us, so now let’s talk about moving on. Amen.
How do we move on? I believe we move on to the next level of good things His Majesty has for us by "pressing in". You may be asking, Prophetess Sharyn, what is involved in the process of "pressing in?" Allow me to share with you what His Majesty has laid on my heart.
1)To soar ("press in") to the new heights His Majesty has for us, I believe we need first of all to praise His Majesty whether we feel like it or not. Amen.
"I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that
that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord." (Jonah 2:9)
"And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto
the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out
before the army, and to say, Praise the Lord; for his mercy endureth
for ever.
And when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushments
against the children of Ammon, Moah, and mount Seir, which were come against
Judah; and they were smitten." (II Chronicles 20:31, 22-23)
I believe we need to apply "pressure – press in" against the Enemy and his cohorts by opening our mouths wide and allowing an abundance of praise to come forth to the very throne room of His Majesty even before we see victory! Amen.
2) The next step I would like to suggest for "pressing in" is to come before the Lord and make a serious decision to fast, whether it is a food fast, abstaining from a purchase of something desired, a favorite TV show or perhaps another loved activity.
"Is not this the fast that I have chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness, to
undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break
every yoke? (Isaiah 58:6)
"And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer
and fasting." (Mark 9:29)
I believe we need to apply "pressure – press in" against the Enemy and his cohorts by setting ourselves before the Lord making a decision to fast, wait upon Him and listen to His voice before taking each victory step. Amen.
3) Thirdly, I would like to suggest we need to apply "pressure – press in" against the Enemy and his cohorts by travailing in prayer. We need to "press-in – birth" the new things God has in store for us through travailing prayer.
"What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding
also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also."
(I Corinthians 14:15)
I believe we need to apply "pressure – press in" against the Enemy and his cohorts by "entering in" through travailing prayer in the Spirit and our understanding. His Majesty is hearing and does hear and answer our prayers before we finish speaking! (Is. 65:24) His Majesty is in the prayer answering business! Amen.
Beloved, it is my sincere heartfelt desire this writing will inspire you to apply "pressure - press-in" and truly, forget and let go of those awful things in your past which are behind you and that you will make a quality decision to reach forth unto those things which are before (all the good things His Majesty has predestined for you), "pressing" toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. You are His Majesty's precious King’s Kid! Amen.
