Have you ever noticed every time God tries to advance you all
hell seems to break loose? We see it in the ministry all the time and we've come
to know that when all is quiet we're simply not being effective in God's work. When things start going wrong, we've learned over the years not to fret, because God is about to do something
mighty big in our life and it's never failed to be true.
We have come to realize the devil is like an alarm clock.
Every time you hear it, it's time to wake up and get going. And so it is
with your new life. When you begin to believe and trust God the enemy
will actually try his best to discourage you. It happens through
sickness, relationships, financial challenges and of course the enemy's ultimate goal -
loss of faith in God.
The enemy wants you to go back to where you came from, a life
filled with dependency on nothing or everything except God Himself.
That's what it's about friend. But if you will take a good look at yourself
you will soon discover you were made for so much more and that the enemy is truly a bold face liar. Life as you now
know it has its limits, but with God, you're going to live in many new ways
forever. God has new opportunities for you each and every day and
the enemy doesn't like it one bit. You can do or be whatever you
like. Instead of sitting around worried, fearing the future, scared of
losing your "worldly" chattels, why not take a moment and look through the eyes
of God? You were created for God, for His Church, family and
friends, you're His reach into someone else's life, and when you understand the
wealth of those gifts no wonder the enemy is so determined to undermine all God
has done for you. The enemy is miserable and friend misery just loves
company. Begin rediscovering your gifts and talents. Begin new and renewed relationships with family and friends. And be sure to thank God every day for all He's doing in your life. Stop listening to the enemy and listen to God. He never said it's over. He said, it's just begun!
So remember, if you've been trusting God and things seem a bit
challenging to say the least lately, rejoice! Because your blessing is on
its way. Have the best week ever, and go through it expecting God's very
best.
