Adversity Happens

The higher up the ladder we go the more of our behinds are exposed! Some believe that the closer to God the more we are bombarded with attacks from the enemy. Well people, I have found that if in the natural I do all I know intellectually for myself and others things are bound to come crashing down upon me. Life generally has its struggles and setbacks.

Satan will use our wrong choices and wrong associations to keep us out of God's will. However, when we are walking in the Spirit, listening to His voice, and being obedient to His call for us and our lives nothing, I say nothing, can come along to attack us and stop our success.

Adversity is bound to occur in our lives and change should be our middle name. We need flexibility and a willingness to adapt to what God has for us and not what the world has. If you are discouraged by adversity, depressed, and overwhelmed then I suggest you get your face in His Face. Surrender once again your life and your deeds and your possessions.

It is God's will we are after in our lives and if we mean that, we remain focused on the prize and do not even see the attempts that are being made against us or feel their effects. We are so deeply into God that His love smothers out and shelters us from all harm.

Discouraged? Overwhelmed? Afflicted? Do you feel as if you have grown in Christ and now are being attacked? Then do not walk but run to our Abba Father! Call upon a fresh fire from the Holy Spirit and begin to live in heavenly places not in earthly circumstances.

The fact is if we are in Christ we are a new creation. If we are fully armed with the armor of God then there is no weapon formed that can touch us! Walk in victory. Do not be the victim! If Christ is for us, who then may be against us! I say NO ONE! There is nothing we cannot do through Christ Jesus who strengthens us! Praise God. He has prepared a place for us in Himself to make us untouchable! Amen.

Be blessed and enjoy the Love He has for you today!
