There's Word in a Sword

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
John 10:10 NIV


For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11 NIV

Have you ever observed, that every time you take a step closer to God, there is an obstacle that will come your way, it could be a thought word or deed and suddenly all the peace your experiencing seems to fade away? All the efforts you've made seem in vain, and then your focus shifts and your back to the same. This could happen at any point in time of your spiritual journey Ever wondered Why?

When you get closer to God it makes the enemy very unhappy because in the old you are at peace with sin. However, it's God Grace that keeps calling out to you and when you answer His call you reject and renounce the Enemy and Sin. But He's not the one to quit easily, remember He went after Jesus, not once or twice, but three times. And What did Jesus do, he fought with the enemy, with the most powerful weapon: The word of God. And as scripture says, "Then the devil left him and angels came and attended him. (Mat 4:11) So next time you identify yourself in battle, put on the full armor of God and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. (Ephesians 6:10-17)

I pray that trusting the every word of God our Father you put on His full armor and like and with Jesus overcome everything that comes your way and may his Holy Spirit fortify you in this your endeavor. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
