Greetings!
Everything means something. I don’t think we should live our lives looking over our shoulders, but we should be aware of the tricks the enemy sometimes plays with us.
First, he wants us to believe that we are not saved.
That is the first lie. If you have received Jesus Christ as your Savior…you are saved and nothing can un-save you. The Bible says that we cannot even come to God unless He first draws us. That means that He saw you and sent Jesus…just for you. He knows everything about you and He still felt that you were worth it. You are special in God’s eyes, and He would move heaven and earth for you.
Then, he wants us to believe that our ministry is not effective.
God has given each one of us something that He uses to bless the people of God. It can be something as simple as smiling. You don’t know how many people you encourage with that smile, or it could be that people find you easy to talk to…when God gets the glory…you are operating in your gift. We get so caught up in what we think success should look like that we miss God’s blessing.
Don’t let the enemy mess with your mind…
I think sometimes we forget who we are, and I just wanted to take a few moments to remind you that you are God's masterpiece. He has called you, and how about this...He not only knows every hair on your head...He knows your name. He has made you to be powerful not pitiful...a victor and not a victim...a warrior and not a worrier. Praise God!
Philippiams 4:8 says, "Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious--the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies."
Until next time…
Be blessed
