People have a tendency to give up too quickly. When life gets tough or unfair we quit our jobs, doubt our own abilities, end our marriage, change churches, change friends, break promises, tell lies, and turn on God. What's up with that? Well that's how the enemy works. He will use dissatisfaction, personal deficiencies, broken-hearts, confusion, attitudes, disappointment, deception, and even create a false understanding about God to destroy lives and opportunities. The battle is real. Evil is real. The only answer is anchoring your life in Christ. He is your stronghold!
Lord Jesus, You are our strong tower in this tough world. You are our Rock and Salvation. Help us and strengthen us as we cling to You. In Jesus Name. Amen.
Nahum 1:7, "The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him."

Prayer request! I have dear friends on Harkers Island whose marriage is in the grasp of the enemy. Plead over them!
ReplyDeletePowerful truths Paul. And I love the humility you speak the truth in -- as a hungry beggar who found the kitchen and desperately wants to lead others there, too. God bless you brother.
