One Of The Enemy’s Greatest Tools Is Fear!

Satan is your enemy and he uses a lot of different tools against you. One of his favorite tools to employ against Believers is fear, because he knows that if he can overcome your faith with fear, that he can leave you on the side of the road in a ditch, wondering what hit you???

At some point when we are just tiny children, fear begins to make its way into our lives. It may be the fear of being left behind, the fear of punishment or the fear of loud noises. Most of our childhood fears can be overcome with just the assurance and realization that we are not alone.

Live life long enough and your fears get bigger and you discover that there are some times that you cannot be anything but alone. Our fear becomes so much more than a feeling, it becomes a leaving, breathing enemy that often paralyzes us and leaves us helpless, afraid and defeated.

In order to overcome this tool of the enemy, we have to remember that we are never alone, because God has promised that He will never leave us or forsake us. The simple reminder that God is with us is often just the power we need to break out of the stronghold of fear.

“The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” -Deuteronomy 31:8

Never allow fear to overcome your faith, instead place your faith in God and allow God and His love, strength and power to overcome any fear that the enemy happens to bring your way. In God, your faith will always overcome fear and lead you to blessing and victory…

LIFE IS A BATTLE!

We want life to be easy, but it’s not. There are moments when everything seems to be going the way that we would like for it to go, but we know better than to get too comfortable, because something will come along and upset the apple cart.

Some people think that a relationship with God makes everything easy, but that is just not true at all. A relationship with God does not make life easy, it just means that we don’t have to face life alone and in our own power. We now have the Supernatural walking and talking with us and guiding us to growth and victory.

The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy and God has come that we might have life more abundantly. (John 10:10) When you decide that you are going to pursue and grow in your relationship with your Creator, then the fight of life is going to grow more intense, but the good news is that this growing intensity of battle grows you.

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace… -Ephesians 6:10-15

Satan will send different spirits against you, but you are filled with the SPIRIT of God, so you have the ability, power and strength to overcome and defeat anything that Satan decides to send your way. I pray that God will help you discern the spirits and that you will find the wisdom to use God’s Word to take them on and take them out.

Victory is yours, you just have to remember to claim it!

Soul Play!

I don’t have a soul, I am a soul! What an amazing truth to buy into and build our life upon. I think one of the reasons I often have such a hard time getting in touch and staying connected to my true self is because I way to frequently lose sight of the reality that I am a soul.

Soul is not something that I look for and find. Soul is something that I am. Soul is what I am, when I am the truest, most real version of the self that God created me to be.

I don’t have to look for soul, because soul will find me, because soul is who I really am. Soul actually chases after you and me, longing to be discovered and embraced.

This dance with the soul is much like a game of hide and seek. Our goal should be to do anything and everything we can to be found. To be found by our soul reconnects us with everything that really matters in life and eternity.

At the end of the day, soul wants to be with you as much as you want and need to be with soul, so why not just give in and let it be???
