GOD WINS!!!!

You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.  Genesis 50:20
When you stand for truth against the evil one, be prepared because the attacks will come.  Be on alert my friends, the evil one will attack you in your weakest areas to distract and oppress you.  As prepared as you think you may be, if you are not completely prepared in the Spirit, you will fail in your flesh.

Yesterday, I was put to the test...I thought I knew what I was up against and thought I was ready.  I was proven wrong.  I was prepared to call out/reveal the evil one in Jesus name.  I went in with strength.  I was not prepared for the attack to come against me personally.  With the evil one sitting in silence laughing at me. I lost my footing and felt defeat.  I was blindsided and I came out of my spirit and into my flesh.  I was so distracted by the confusion that I failed and felt completely defeated. 

What I am thankful for is, My God know my heart and loves me so unconditionally and needs me to remain strong.  Instead of allowing me to remain with my thoughts of doubts and confusion, He put me to sleep and restored my soul.  God is never the author of confusion and He alone wants to write my story.  He didn't  need me in my weaken state to lose strength and put focus on myself.  He needs me to focus on the spiritual battle that is real and raging.

I awake being reminded,   "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly”  John 10:10.  
The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy everything good in your life. He wants to destroy your kids, your marriage, your joy, your happiness, your health, your job, your finances. The thief just wants to ruin anything he can get his hands on!

I'm also reminded of my weaknesses, I must remain focused on strengthening myself in the Word and guarding myself with the full armour of God.  I must do this so I am equipped to remain in the gap for those I love, until they are ready to fight the battle.

The enemy is strong but My God is stronger.  satan..you only thought you won...  MY GOD WINS!!!!
