You're not as pretty as her...
She's a better mom...
You've already made a mess of things...
It's never gonna get better...
You don't deserve to be happy...
You can't..."
Just give up..."
Satan loves putting these thoughts in our head. He loves when we think of such things... And every new self degrading thought just adds fuel to his burning fire... He feeds on destruction.
We have started to believe many of these things. Slowly, the world is engulfing us. There are days when we feel our heads are barely above water. We don't think we can go on...
But there is hope. We have a powerful God on our side. We have the tangible Word of God at our fingertips. We have the freedom to pray, to worship and talk to Jesus Christ every second of every day.
Satan trembles at the thought of that.
Guess what?
Satan does not want you opening your mouth to praise a mighty God.
He does not want you to forgive that person.
He does not want you to pick up your Bible & dig in God's word.
He does not want you to admit you are in need of a Savior.
He does not want you to use your talents to make the world better.
He does not want you to fight to the death for that marriage.
He does not want you to believe in yourself.
He hates the power that prayer has in our lives.
He HATES when we fall to our knees in worship of our powerful God who will break our chains and set us free!
Satan loves that we questions our God.
He loves that we think we can handle life on our own.
He chuckles as we say we can make this marriage work without Jesus.
He smirks as we give up on ourselves and others...
But guess what Satan?
Listen to me good...
I serve a God who is bigger than you. I serve a God who's grace covers me and frees me. I have His word engrained into my heart, therefore living out in my life. I have a God who I can call on at.any.moment. And together, we will squash you and your destructive ways. We claim victory over our lives IN JESUS' name and you are UNDER OUR FEET!
Do you know why? Because Prayerful lives are Powerful lives.
When you tempt me, I will Pray.
I will throw the Living Word of God IN YOUR FACE.
Everyday, I will arm myself with Christ's Word, His armor that protects me and gives me STRENGTH to defeat you in every tempting and difficult moment you throw my way.
.......
Now, You listen to me beautiful one:
Don't you dare let Satan make you think that you cannot be set free from bondage through Christ. You are GOD'S GIRL (Beth Moore).
This is what God says about YOU:
"You are beautiful. You are worthy. You are precious. I have given you the talent to do many great things in this life. You deserve the good things in this life. Every day you breath is so important to me. YOU are important. I want you to know that I am PROUD to be your Daddy... your Heavenly father who loves you more than your Earthly father. You have what it takes. Listen...
I Love You. I Adore you... more than you could even begin to understand. I am with you. Every. Step. Of. The.Way.
Through Prayer, I will flood you with confidence.
"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.
For I am THE LORD YOUR GOD." - Isaiah 43:2-3
