Your intake determines your outtake.

“If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.” Proverbs 24:10(KJV).

There are some adages in my tribe that are relevant to today’s message, “What you eat determines how far you can fly,” and “Only those with inner strength can eat amid the enemies.” What you feed your spirit with will shape your response to life’s challenges. Just as a tree draws strength from its roots, your foundation in the Word of God determines how firmly you stand in adversity. Psalm 1:2-3 says, "But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper." When you consistently absorb God’s truth, you will flourish in every season of life. Your revelational knowledge of God’s Word will equip you to resist the enemy, just as Jesus did when He declared, "It is written…" (Matthew 4:4, 7, 10). The more you take in the Word, the stronger your spirit becomes.

A well-fed spirit does not waver in adversity but rises with boldness and authority. Your strength in the day of battle is a reflection of what you have stored within. Proverbs 24:5 affirms, "A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength." The exploits of Daniel, Esther, and Paul were not accidental; they were the result of deep intimacy with God and a commitment to learning and applying His wisdom. Strength is not just about power but about the knowledge and authority you carry. Feed your spirit daily with God’s Word and wisdom from godly sources, and you will walk in dominion. I see you growing in grace as you increase in the knowledge of God.

Prophetic word: I declare over you today that your intake shall be rich in the wisdom and revelation of God. You will not lack divine insight, and your spirit shall be strong in the day of adversity. As you hunger for the Word and feed on divine truth, you will walk in dominion and authority. No situation will overwhelm you, for the greater One lives in you (1 John 4:4). You shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, bearing fruit in every season (Psalm 1:3). I decree that the Lord is opening your eyes to deeper understanding, positioning you for exploits, and causing you to triumph in all things. Amen!

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for the gift of Your Word, which strengthens and sustains me. Fill me with a deep hunger for Your truth, that I may be rooted and established in wisdom. Let my intake be filled with Your divine revelation, so that my outtake may reflect Your power, wisdom, and grace. Strengthen me to stand firm in times of adversity and grant me the boldness to walk in the fullness of my divine calling. I declare that I am strong in You and in the power of Your might. Thank You, Lord, for filling me with wisdom and knowledge for every good work. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen!
