I’m joining the Five Minute Friday community
with Kate Motaung…5
minutes, no rewriting, and a one word prompt…
Lose
I've been under some serious
spiritual attack for a while now. In every area of my life the enemy is working
to wear me down.
My friends have also been under attack and this constant assault has us weary. Feeling as if we can't get to the surface for air, we're losing the strength to fight this battle.
And that's exactly what Satan wants—for us to give up, to turn away from God, and stoop to his level.
He wants us to lose ourselves to him. (I got a creepy feeling just writing that.)

But our Jesus has already defeated the devil
through His death and resurrection!
And I'm reminding myself that it's through Jesus' victory where I can draw the strength to persevere.

ReplyDeleteMe too, and I can say that about many others. Praying for you right now!
ReplyDeleteI don't know how people make it through this life without the strength and constant watch-care God provides. Love the promise that we will be the strength in our weakness, and praying this for you now! Crystal~
