I was listening to the radio the other day and was filled with joy when I was reminded of the verse from 1 John 4:4 “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” We have to remember this at all times. He who is in us, is greater than he who is in the world! Satan will always attack and be on the prey, this is true. When Jesus speaks to us He does not try to sugar coat reality and tell us what we want to hear. He is truthful! He does not say if the storms come, He says WHEN they come be prepared. One of the most awesome, encouraging and strengthening truths to what God has given us is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit in us, has authority over him and his ways. The Holy Spirit is ever present. I believe it can fade if we don’t acknowledge and feed it in our daily lives. Ask God to help us be confident in what He has given to us. We need to make God more of a priority than we did today. He wants us to live an abundant life and give glory to His name. He wants us to draw people near and be bold when speaking of His love. Let’s hold each other accountable to equip ourselves with the Word, His love, His protection, His wisdom, His guidance and His AUTHORITY! Let it just overflow!
“Father, I pray we can rise up and take courage in Your Name. When we feel the attack of satan in our lives and those around us, infuse us with the authority you have granted us. I pray we realize that with this authority we have the right to maintain strong and persistent through you. No person, situation or circumstance can come close to the truth you have planted in our lives. Help us not get distracted or give more attention than needed to what satan is inflicting in our lives. I pray we can stay focused and set on your heart and will for our lives. I ask that you consume us and be on our minds every second of the day. Thank you Lord for loving us, thank you for being persistent in our lives and being so truthful and faithful! We hope in you Lord! AMEN
