THIS IS WAR
Do you put on the armor of God daily? Do you make yourself ready for whatever battles Satan has prepared for you to confront?
We are surrounded by Spiritual Warfare. If we should choose not to fight as the Israelites did in the Valley of Elah, we will be in constant turmoil. (1 Sam. 17) Goliath used intimidation to bring fear into the hearts of Israel's army and King Saul. Satan still uses this tactic today with God's children. Satan will blow things out of propotion if we let him. Satan is one enemy that we should never ever make a peace treaty with.
How do we combat this enemy? We should always begin with prayer. If we don't pray through the fear, we will remain paralyzed because of it!! We cannot fulfill God's purpose He created for us, if we live in a state of fear. These battles must be confronted head on. The battle will not be won by waiting on the sidelines for God to move on our behalf. We must begin with prayer and find prayer warriors who will come along beside of us to help us pray it through. When we rely soley on God to give us the strength we need to defeat the enemy in the battle ahead, we will be victorious!!
How Deep Do You Want To Go?
God has something special for each of us. Everything we have, we have received from Him. All of those things, no matter how great or how small, should be used for His glory. Jesus is our temple from which all rivers flow. When we are first saved, the water is only ankle deep. We are new in the faith with no idea what God's plans are for us. But as we grow and seek God's face, through private devotions, prayer time, Church attendance, small groups, and so on, we find ourselves in knee-deep water. The more we know, the more He will require from us. We should NEVER be satisfied with only an ankle deep Christian experience. The deeper we go into the water we should hunger and thirst for more. We have access to the Power of Jesus and the Holy Ghost as we go deeper into the river of salvation. As we surpass the waist deep water, we become fully immersed into that power. The kind of Holy Ghost power that will change your life and love for God like no other can. When God breaths on us, we are given new life. He longs to give that to us all. He wants all of us to be totally immersed in the river, not just halfway to our waist but completely and totally engulfed by His river of life giving water. Begin to seek His face and not His hand, worship Him with intensity, give Him ALL of you, and He will fully embrace you with that life changing experience. Once you go all in, you will never be the same!
