This week has been pretty good. Yesterday was a pretty amazing day. I spent 3 hours talking to one of my friends, which was amazing, and so much fun. And then I spent another half hour or so talking another one of my friends. Those 3 ½ hours were some of best I have had in a long time. This has been a week of struggles with some people, but getting to talk to those 2 friends was just amazing and such a relief. I was able to listen, talk… and pray. It was a great time of going deeper and sorting things out and supporting each other. Then I went to Rended Hearts and had a great time of worship, prayer, and reading through I John. Some specific verses stood out to me and they were I John 4:3-4 and 5:4-5.
“…You knew that this enemy was coming into the world and now is already here. Children, you belong to God, and you have defeated these enemies. God’s Spirit is in you and is more powerful than the one that is in the world.”
“Every child of God can defeat the world, and our faith is what gives us this victory. No one can defeat the world without having faith in Jesus as the Son of God.”
The enemy is here and out to attack. I can feel him trying to grab hold of me. But I am running… running far from him and closer to my Daddy. As a body of Christ, we have defeated the enemy and will continue to defeat him every time he attacks. God gives us this power. No other way but through God are we able to overcome and win!
He gives us the strength and courage to be victorious in this spiritual battle. Our faith in Him brings us to a glorious victory. We are only defeating the enemy because He is living in us and fighting for and with us.
Father, thank you for being the all-powerful God that you are. Satan is attacking and only by your grace are we able to conquer. I pray that I will be able to step back and let you lead instead of me trying to go ahead of you. I love you!
