These days we don't need to do much to gain enemies. It is as if the more we grow in Christ and are filled with the Holy Spirit, it's the more evil permeates and saturates the world and those who belong to the World. I sigh here because even as I go out in the world and converse with those who say they are believers, as much as 90 percent of these people are taken over by beliefs that are ungodly and demonic and there are many others walking in compromise. I recently had a conversation with a woman saying that I had to cleanse the rooms I slept in away from home with prayers and by sanctifying the area. Her response was that she used energy forcefields and astral projection. This was from a woman who insisted she knew Christ. To say the least I was aghast and just couldn't even voice my opinion. I could only pray.
I realize more and more every day - I do not belong in this world and it's ways. I have spent the last 27 years honing out the things of God, sanctifying myself before him, growing more Christlike, growing in the anointing. I could not go back. The world would be such an uncomfortable place with it's system of "wokeism"
Stand steadfast my friends, do not become wary in well doing. When we look at all the biblical characters who did great things for God....they were the minority and they were not very popular.
This is another way we prove God inspite of the many enemies around us we are still sustained by God himself.
We are not hemmed in at all but continue to cause the growth of the Kingdom just by simply standing (in God) and praying.
We don't need to fight verbal battles, we have very powerful Spiritual weapons. I pray God will teach you about the weapons and how to use them effectively.
Ephesians 6: 10 - 18
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
Amen
Walk good in Christ
Till we meet again
