Prophetic Word: Don’t Compromise Your Boldness! – by Jamie Rohrbaugh

What do I mean when I say, “Don’t compromise your boldness?”

Just this:If you’re believing God to do something on your behalf, a lot of the time He’ll answer your prayer in increments. For example:

• Your body might show gradual signs of healing.
• He might send you the money you need in small amounts, instead of in one lump sum.
• He might draw your child to Himself slowly, when you wished and prayed that He would just shake that child up all at one time and change everything about their heart all at once.

Our God is always able to deliver us and answer our prayers in one huge miracle.

I’ve seen it happen and God does this for sure. But other times, for reasons known only to Him (but which sometimes we see later), He answers our prayers in increments. Here’s the test of faith when this happens:

Will you compromise your boldness?

If your prayer is to see your child saved, delivered, and baptized in fire and the Holy Ghost, will you stop praying if you simply see your child saved–but not yet delivered?Will you stop praying if you see your child saved PLUS delivered, but not yet baptized in the Holy Spirit and fire?Will you stop praying if you see your child saved, delivered, baptized in the Holy Ghost and fire, but not yet speaking in tongues, prophesying, working miracles, hearing God, and witnessing for Jesus?

If you’re praying for God to give you the whole “kit and caboodle,” are you going to be satisfied if you see Him answer a portion of your prayer?

Of course you’re going to be thankful for everything He does. That’s a given, and this article is not about that. And of course you’re going to keep loving your child and praying for them in the example above.But where do you stop contending? … IF you stop at all?Will you stop? That’s a trick question … because the answer should be, “I will never stop contending nor ever be satisfied until God answers EVERY PART OF MY PRAYER IN FULLNESS.”In other words, our response should be, “I will keep fasting. I will keep praying with my head between my knees. I will keep crying out to God until I see the fullness of the answer come. I will be thankful for everything God does. I will praise Him throughout the entire journey. But I will NEVER cease fasting and praying and believing until I receive the FULLNESS, the TOTALITY, of what I asked God for.”

The enemy will tempt you in this. The enemy will tempt you to compromise your boldness.
