Round one. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9


God’s word says in Ephesians 6:12, For our struggle in not against flesh and blood, but against rulers, and powers of the dark world.

Give it to God; whatever your going through.  The battle is always His anyway.  You could try to get in that ring alone, but you WILL get knocked down, every time.  Satan is really good at knowing when, and where to throw the punch - John 10:10 - He is out to destroy you, and you will go round after round in the same fight, until you realize, your fight isn’t against them, it is against the one who is using them.

Now that’s where I love knowing God’s word, and the way to fight back, is to let God. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9, All surpassing power is from God, not from us.  We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed. Perplexed, but not in despair.  Persecuted, but not abandoned.  Struck down but not destroyed.

God’s desire is that our faith and trust grows, as we grow in a relationship with Him.  Are you growing, are you spending time with Him, seeking His word?  If you’re not with Him, who are you with?  Whose voices are you listening to, the lies of satan, or the word of God?

I don’t know about you, but I have been many rounds with satan knocking me down, and I’m tired of it.  I know he won’t stop coming at me as long as I’m on this earth. I’ve learned to let God go before me.  If God is for me, who can be against me?

I try not to focus on things I can’t change.  I could only change me, by growing in God’s word and let Him fight my battles.  In every difficulty I face, I see the Greatness of my Father come through every time.  So ask yourself, “Am I getting in this the ring alone?”

Find your peace in Him, who sees all, knows all, and has everything in your life under control, Philippians 4:4-7

 Grace and Peace to you
