...NO MATTER WHAT....

THE PAST FEW DAYS HAVE BEEN TRULY AWESOME.  I HAD A WONDERFUL WEEKEND WITH THE PEOPLE I LOVE AND WHO ALSO LOVE ME IN RETURN.  IN FACT, THIS WHOLE PAST WEEK HAS BEEN GREAT.  I GOT ALOT DONE, STAYED IN A GOOD MOOD AND WAS REALLY IN TUNE WITH THE LORD.  THE WEATHER HAS EVEN BEEN BEAUTIFUL.  NO ONE HAS BEEN SICK.  MY FAMILY HAS NEVER BEEN CLOSER.  EVERYTHING HAS BEEN LOVELY. 

I HAVE BEEN WARNED THAT SATAN IS ON THE LOOKOUT FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME.  MY PASTOR HAS EVEN TOLD ME TO BE EXPECTING AN ATTACK OF THE DEVIL.  MY BIBLE HAS TAUGHT ME TO REMAIN ON GUARD AT ALL TIMES.  IT IS THE DEVILS JOB TO ROB, TO KILL, AND TO DESTROY.  SATAN OBVIOUSLY HATES TO SEE US ESCAPE HIS TRAPS.  HE CANNOT STAND IT WHEN WE ARE JOYOUS, HAPPY AND FREE.  HIS DEMONS COME AFTER US WITH A VENGENCE WHEN WE LIVE ACCORDING TO THE WILL OF GOD!

THE DEVIL PLAYED MIND GAMES WITH ME THIS EVENING.  HE TRIED TO ATTACK ME BY CAUSING PROBLEMS WITHIN RELATIONSHIPS.  SEEDS OF ANGER, DOUBT AND JEALOUSY WERE QUICKLY BROUGHT INTO MY OTHERWISE PERFECT WEEKEND.  I FOUND IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL MY TONGUE.  SATAN KNEW EXACTLY WHO TO USE IN ORDER TO PUSH MY BUTTONS.  HIS ATTACK WAS QUICK, SWIFT AND VICIOUS.  I KNEW THE DEVIL WAS THE AUTHOR OF THIS CONFUSION AND STILL HAD A HARD TIME CONTROLING MY EMOTIONS. 

I REALIZED THAT EVEN THOUGH I HAVE GROWN ALOT SPIRITUALLY, I STILL HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO.  ITS EASY TO REMAIN GODLY WHEN EVERYTHING IS GOING FINE.  ITS NOT HARD TO SING PRAISES WHEN YOU ARE HAPPY.  EVEN THOUGH I CAME CLOSE TO GIVING IN TO THE GAME OF ANGER AND CONFUSION, I CAN STILL SEE THE HAND OF THE LORD IN THE SITUATION AS WELL.  GOD WILL ONLY ALLOW SATAN TO ANTAGONIZE US TO A CERTAIN EXTENT.  THE LORD ALLOWED THESE THINGS TO HAPPEN THIS EVENING IN ORDER TO MAKE ME REALIZE THAT I MUST IN FACT DEPEND ON HIM FOR EVERYTHING.  IN GOD, I WILL FIND TRUE HAPPINESS.  THE LORD IS THE SOURCE OF EVERYTHING GOOD IN OUR LIVES.  THIS EVENING SERVED AS A REMINDER OF WHAT LIFE WOULD BE LIKE WITHOUT HIS LOVE, GUIDANCE AND DIRECTION. 

I LOVE MY JESUS!  I NEED THE LORD!  I REFUSE TO ALLOW SATAN TO STEAL WHAT GOD HAS SO FREELY GIVEN TO ME!

JOHN 10:10  "THE THEIF DOES NOT COME EXCEPT TO STEAL AND TO KILL AND TO DESTROY.  I HAVE COME THAT THEY MAY HAVE LIFE AND THAT THEY MAY HAVE IT MORE ABUNDANTLY"
