Who do you call on?

 

Have you ever been overwhelmed by the world or even in your backyard?  What I mean, is have you ever felt overwhelmed by what is going on around you?  The news around us can be discouraging.  There is so much pain and the enemy seems to be running rampant.  

Are you experiencing a personal attack by the enemy?  The enemy likes to attack in many ways   however, his attacks are not new. He uses the same old tricks to get to believers.  If he can’t get in your mind, he attacks your family and friends. If he can’t attack your family and friends, he goes after your health or finances. 

Job understood these things.  Remember though, Job couldn’t be touched without God’s permission.  There is always a lesson for either us, or those around us.  We might not learn that lesson until many years from now, or until we are with Him face to face.

We can take heart today that God is not surprised by anything that happens to us or around us.  He is all knowing and with us through each step.  He is with us even in the fire – Daniel 3:25

 

Take Heart today!  Take Courage today!  You are not alone. John 16:32

 

The enemy is not all knowing – only God is. Job 21:22 

The enemy can not read your thoughts - only God can.  Psalm 139:2

The enemy is not everywhere at the same time – only God is.  Proverbs 15:3

The enemy can’t touch you without God’s permission.  Job 1:12

The enemy cannot change the end of the book – he loses.  Revelation 20:10

 

Cling to Him today.  Strengthen each other in Christ today.  Your Christian friends can pray with and for you through every situation.  You can also pray for those who are suffering around you today.  Hold each other up and encourage each other in Him today.

Never forget - we know how the book ends. 

Never forget – we are not home yet – but travelers on this small blue planet.

Keep looking up!  Jesus is coming soon!

 

Job 42: 1-3

1 Then Job replied to the Lord:

2 “I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted.

3 You asked, ‘Who is this that obscures my plans without knowledge?’

Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.

 

Colossians 3:2 (NIV)

Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

 1 Corinthians 14:33 (NIV)

For God is not a God of disorder but of peace—as in all the congregations of the Lord’s people.

 Revelation 22: 20-21 (NIV)

21 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.”

Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.

22 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people. Amen.
