Don't Listen To The Enemies Lies.

"Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour." 1 Peter 5:8

The thing about the enemy is if he can start to make you believe his lies then he knows he has you away from God mentally. We all have doubts, fears, and things we battle in our minds daily that most of us never speak about because we take care of them ourselves. God never sends us a thought that is mean towards someone, hateful or untruthful, but most of all God's thoughts aren't even like ours. The thoughts that come from God aren't like the enemies, they're not confusing or make you wonder why you're not deserving they're uplifting and they tell you the point. God sends thoughts into our minds every day, but so does the enemy. When you go through a time where you feel like you're being isolated most of the time that's God teaching you how to listen to Him. Today as I was sitting outside I was praying, the enemy made me think that what I was praying was too far-fetched, that I've been praying for this for months and yet there hasn't been improvement in the situation. That is when God came into my mind and spoke, it wasn't confusing and it was straight to the point, He spoke and said, "Maybe you haven't seen an improvement physically but you've felt it and noticed it mentally." That was exactly what I needed to hear, and I knew it was from God. The enemy wants us to live sad, miserable, & disappointed because he wants us to go through what he does and feel the way he does. Don't let the enemy crowd your mind, you have the power over the enemy. Rebuke it in the name of Jesus when the enemy sends those thoughts to you. Here are some verses to reflect on today. "They blaspheme you; your enemies misuse your name." Psalms 139:20 "For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places." Ephesians 6:12 "I am not afraid of ten thousand enemies who surround me on every side." Psalms 3:6 "Lord, hear me and help me! Listen to what my enemies are saying." Jeremiah 18:19

Happiness That Will Never Fulfill.

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37:4‬ ‭ Happiness is something we are all searching for in life, it's something that we each want to feel. I have come to realize if I want to feel happiness it begins with finding God. I will never be happy in this world when I don't have God in my life. Although people think they might be happy on earth now, there will come a time for eternity and if their lives are full of sin then happiness will never last. Believing that this world can satisfy your soul is only lying to yourselves. You have to find a true meaningful relationship with God and work on it everyday, you aren't called to be perfect but you have to make an effort. God knows your heart, and if you're trying He sees that. Today, spend time truly seeking God for the happiness you're searching for. This earth cannot fill your soul. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken sp...

Wait Patiently!

“Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.” Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭ If God is making you wait, then wait patiently. Nothing in the waiting is a waste. I remember a time in my life where I was praying for something, I waited years and seem to receive no answer. I waited and waited. Somedays I was impatient and cried all day, other days I waited with patience of steel and praised God for what I knew I would someday receive. Sometimes the waiting is easy, other times it is an uphill battle. Whenever we are waiting we will go through different seasons, but we can count on the fact that God is at work for us. The waiting is important and a lesson is somewhere in the midst. Today, whatever it is God is having you wait for know that the season of waiting is often a time you look back on as a blessing. Even if it doesn't feel like a blessing now someday you will see how close the waiting brought you to God. When we are waiting we often spend more tim...

Don't Forget God!

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ Don't forget God when you receive what you are praying for. God knows the things that we want the most, and often times He does give us what we want. When God does give us the things we want we have to stop and give thanks. It's like this, if you give someone a gift that you know they have really been wanting, something they will absolutely love, and they don't even say thank you it would hurt your feelings. It would make you feel like they don't appreciate you. If someone asked how they got the gift and they said they got it for themselves it would make you hurt also. When God gives us what we are praying for we need to shout from the rooftops that God done it for us, that He made a way. We need to thank God, telling everyone about it. We should be excited to tell others about God and all the wonderful things He does for us. Toda...
