ReplyDeleteOne thing for certain is that I cannot fight against the devil by myself and if I tried it would be major failure. It’s so silly when you hear people attempt to command the devil to leave them along and JUST get behind them as if they themselves have some great power to defeat. Everything is to be done through Jesus Christ and He is my shield against the enemy. I loved verse 20, where it says Paul was in chains (much distress) and yet his eyes were still on his mission preaching boldly for the kingdom of God and not for his glory but the glory of the Father. I discovered yesterday that as I prayed to the Lord about loving Him more than anything is that I really do :-) He is my world not this current one that I’m in. This life is over quickly and not husbands, children or any careers would be worth missing Christ. Thank you Lord Jesus for the life you freely gave me, and for these times that I can reflect on what’s really important which would be You and multiplying the kingdom of Heaven.
